1 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: I told people. They didn't want to believe me. Jesse, 2 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,920 Speaker 1: you were here. I told people the cradle of quarterbacks 3 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 1: in college football Connor Wigman, Haynes King, Marcel Reid. It's 4 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: always been as clear as day to me. The cradle 5 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: of quarterbacks has been College Station in Texas. I told you, guys, 6 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 1: I didn't tell you anything like that. We're jam packed. 7 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: We're high a top of glowing downtown Nashville, Tennessee, on 8 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: the Sunday, September fourteenth, the Year of Our Lord, twenty 9 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: twenty five edition of This show Man. What a Saturday 10 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: that was. You could have chosen to be where we 11 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: were in Knoxville. You could have chosen to go to 12 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: South Bend. You could have chosen to go to Atlanta, 13 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: which we thought about. Yeah, there was a lot of 14 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: really really good down to the wire college football games yesterday, 15 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: in many cases that did not adopt the game script 16 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 1: that the games were supposed to adopt. As Mima always 17 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: told us, that's why we play the games. So it's 18 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: a full reaction Sunday. I'm not gonna waste a whole 19 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: lot of time on the intro. We got a lot 20 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: to get to the ap pole is an abject disaster today, 21 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: I would argue worse than it's been all year. So 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: I mean, if they keep screwing up, we'll keep correcting them. 23 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 1: Can't believe that this is a thing. A fourth week 24 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: end of the season. Two head coaches have lost their 25 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: jobs today. We do not delight in that, but I 26 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: will talk about it, and I've got three best bets 27 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,639 Speaker 1: to toss aboard the Rominudle Express tonight as it chugs 28 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: out of the station for week four. They're watching us 29 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: in Clarksville, Texas, Rotterdam. It's in the Netherlands. Bradley Fyi, Salem, Oregon, Fife, Alabama. 30 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 1: Bradley knows where Fife is. They're watching us everywhere. Hey, 31 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: if you're on the YouTube channel right now, you might 32 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: notice that number says, well, it's probably like four hundred 33 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: and one thousand. Now, we passed four hundred thousand subscribers, 34 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: which is significant because it kickstarts the road to five 35 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: hundo and once we get to five hundred thousand subs, 36 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 1: which I challenge you to make this season, I need 37 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: to come up with some ideas on what to do. 38 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: We're not going full nude on the show, even though 39 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: I snap my fingers and can make TVMA appear in 40 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: the monitor. We have to keep the children around. It 41 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: has to be a child friendly show. However, I am 42 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: not above completely humiliating myself for the cause I've thrown 43 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: a clown nose on several times on air. So Georgia 44 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: Tech one yesterday, I'm not throwing on the clown nose 45 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: for that Vandy one yesterday. I can't throw on the 46 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: clown nose for that Lagway, the best quarterback in the SEC. 47 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: I suppose I could throw on the clown nose for that, 48 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: but that's not what we're here for. We're here to 49 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: decide what we should do when we get to five 50 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: hundred thousand subs. Side note, make sure you're subscribed if 51 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: you aren't already. Okay, let's dive into the show tonight, 52 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: because we've got a lot to get to. That's a 53 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 1: hefty stack of papers in front of me. Georgia gave 54 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: up forty one and still found a way to win 55 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: in Nland Stadium yesterday. Stunning, stunning atmosphere, stunning everything we 56 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: were there. This is about as good as college football gets. 57 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: I wish so badly that people who have not been 58 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: to Niland Stadium on a Saturday afternoon, could be there 59 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: for a big conference game. Georgia's in town. It's a 60 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: back and forth affair. They grabbed the early lead, Georgia 61 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: takes the lead, Tennessee takes it back, and there we 62 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: are all the while. This was the scene. I try 63 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: to tell you, guys, follow on the Instagram story. That's 64 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: Bill Martin, friend of the program. He takes us up 65 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: on the roof of the press box every morning of 66 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: a game day when we're in Knoxville and it's empty 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: and then it's full. And that's what it looks like 68 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: down there on field level. Unbelievable, ladies and gentlemen. We 69 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: witnessed our first five Chawlai classic yesterday. Five out of 70 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: five cha lai, which, for the newly washed around here 71 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: is the plural of chalice, which also makes no sense 72 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: to you, but stick around it will. This was a classic. 73 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: You rated in whatever metric you want to. There were 74 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: fourth downs, there were new stars emerging. There were a 75 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: couple of quarterbacks playing at a higher level yesterday than 76 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: several of the alleged Heisman favorites that I was urged 77 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: to believe in in the preseason. Man, what a day 78 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: overtime field goal drama. It was unbelievable, and I am 79 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: sure most of America watched. I can't believe that there 80 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 1: are American citizens that chose not to watch this, not 81 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: people that got dragged off to fall weddings against their will. 82 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: I mean, there were people who just chose to, you know, 83 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: hang out and go to a park yesterday. You do you, 84 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,479 Speaker 1: We'll do us over here. It is so hard to 85 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: cut the head off the snake, isn't it. That was 86 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: part of the game preview we did. If you'll recall 87 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: last week, animal rights activists came after us. No even 88 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: they say do what you want to do with snakes, 89 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: as does a certain wife of mine. But I said, 90 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: you know, it's really hard to beat Georgia. Not groundbreaking analysis, 91 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: but I think let me pull this table over towards me. 92 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 1: It's when you haven't beaten a team in a long time, 93 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: it starts to feel like you can't and that's not 94 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: ever the case. It just means you have not. We've 95 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 1: gone over this rule on this show many times before, 96 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: cannot versus have not. And I still believe that Tennessee 97 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: merely has not beaten Georgia eight up. Scratched that nine 98 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: out of the last nine tries. Eventually they will, I 99 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: mean Bama got up to what Jesse fourteen or fifteen 100 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: in a row, and then they've beaten them two out 101 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: of three years now, so you know it will eventually happen. However, 102 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: up until the moment where it does happen, it feels 103 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: like it's impossible to do because it's really hard to 104 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: cut the head off the snake. This is the most 105 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: points Tennessee has scored against Kirby Smart, and it was 106 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: in their own building, and it still wasn't enough. Of 107 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: the many things, and there are many things that stand 108 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: out about Kirby Smart's Georgia football program, but one of 109 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: the things I've always imed is how resilient they are. 110 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: That's a word that gets thrown around a lot. He 111 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: uses the word a lot, but a lot of times. 112 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: If you'll notice, whether it be your program or a 113 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: program you watch, you notice how overtime overtime programs develop styles, 114 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: Coaches develop styles, fan bases develop styles. Styles they like 115 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: to win. In Florida's may be different than Georgia's, may 116 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: be different than Tennessee's, may be different than Kansas State's. 117 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: But over time, even when you start rolling, well, when 118 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: you're not rolling, you just want to win, period, But 119 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: when you are rolling, there's a there's a comfort factor 120 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,559 Speaker 1: in play in a certain way. The thing I've always 121 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: admired about Kirby and Georgia is, yeah, he's got a style. 122 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: He's a defensive minded coach. Normally you're not used to 123 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: seeing them give up a whole lot, but when they do, 124 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 1: it feels so uncomfortable. If you're a Georgia fan and 125 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: you're watching and other guys just marches down the field 126 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: and scores on you to open the game, and they 127 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: got twenty one on the board really early in the game, 128 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: and you're thinking to yourself, man, I hoped we wouldn't 129 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: give up twenty one all afternoon. It's not even close 130 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: to halftime yet. And then you go on to find 131 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: out the other guy is gonna be up in the 132 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: low thirties, mid thirties, they may crack the forty point barrier. 133 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: That's not comfortable for a Georgia fan, even if you're 134 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: gonna go on to win the game. That's not comfortable. 135 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: Saving at Alabama was the same way. That's not comfortable. 136 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: That's not the way a Georgia football game is supposed 137 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: to look, because they normally don't look that way. The 138 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: most impressive part of one of the many things that 139 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: Kirby Smart's been able to accomplish there is they can 140 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: get way out of their comfort zone and still look comfortable. 141 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: There is no world where I'm sitting there thinking Georgia 142 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: is gonna have to score in the mid forties to 143 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: win this thing. But yet they had to yesterday, and 144 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: they did. And they didn't do it with a fifth 145 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: year veteran senior quarterback, and they didn't do it with 146 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: dominant returning starters along the offensive line. It was none 147 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: of that. It was just fighting, fighting, Because as many 148 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: guys come through that program and leave and go on 149 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: to the NFL as they do, that's the one thing 150 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: that remains. Doesn't always mean every team's going to be 151 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: as good as the previous year's team. This team, Kirby 152 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: said it in the post game, I fully believe it's 153 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: got a long way to go. Tennessee probably got a 154 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: long way to go. A lot of folks got a 155 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: long way to go. But ma'am, how prepared they are 156 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: Being uncomfortable has always impressed me. I was really surprised 157 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: that the route the game went over under was fifty 158 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: and a half, both of them with the help of 159 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: one overtime period good above forty. Game had every reason 160 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: to be a quarterback struggle. If you'll notice, across the 161 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: country yesterday and in general this year so far, there 162 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 1: are a lot of quarterbacks that a lot was expected 163 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: of that have struggled. You would think, for all the world, 164 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: if there's going to be a quarterback struggle fest on 165 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: the Week three slate will couldn't it be Joey Agilar 166 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: going up against a legitimate defense for the first time. 167 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: Couldn't it be Gunner Stockton going on the road for 168 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: the first time against quality competition and both of them 169 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: just lit it on fire. Yesterday padlock stat though, as 170 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: we popped the paper, Georgia was five of five in 171 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 1: the red zone for twenty six points and Tennessee was 172 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: two of three for fourteen, including the missfield goal, there 173 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: were really no definitive statements. It's always really kind of 174 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: fascinated me how these back and forth games where either 175 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: person could win and someone misses a field goal and 176 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: then the other guy takes advantage of it. Great, that's great, 177 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: that's the name of the game. You're trying to win 178 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: the game. But sometimes if you're listening to the call 179 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: in shows on the way home, or you're talking to 180 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: your buddies about the game, there's so many things that 181 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: you speak about in a positive nature after a win 182 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: that if you change nothing else about them but the outcome, 183 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: you would speak negatively about, Like if you didn't run 184 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: the ball well enough, Well, if you win forty four 185 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: to forty one, that's cool. But if you lose forty 186 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: four to forty one, oh man, we sucked running the ball. 187 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: That's what cost us the game. Well, there really is 188 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: no definitive when a game is this balanced. On the 189 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: scene we saw, there really is no definitive. I wondered 190 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: whether Gunner Stockton could take advantage of what I thought 191 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: was a vulnerability, was a match up edge his wide 192 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: receivers versus Tennessee's secondary I wondered that. Well, he answered 193 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: the question pretty definitively. Yes he can. He was twenty 194 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: three thirty one, three hundred and four passing yards. Just 195 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: an insane performance, just an amazing performance. I do not care. 196 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: I do not care what Tennessee was missing yesterday because 197 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: you would have talked to a lot of Tennessee folks 198 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: before that game and they would have told you, we 199 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: still feel pretty good. Okay, these guys, these guys filling 200 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: in in the secondary, it's not like we got them 201 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 1: off the scrap heap. They're good players, their experienced players. 202 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: They're not as good as the starters that otherwise they'd 203 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,119 Speaker 1: be the starters. Man Gunner Stockton went in there just fearless. 204 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: I think it helps a lot when you connect early 205 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: on the first pass. I think it was the first 206 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: play from scrimmage that he had. They hit on a 207 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: deep ball, kind of reminiscent of what they tried to 208 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: do with Beck and I think maybe Arian Smith was 209 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: it the Bama game last year. They tried to hit 210 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: him down the side lane and he drops the ball, 211 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: because that's all Georgia receivers did last year. Well, this 212 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: one connected and all of a sudden, instead of instead 213 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: of your quarterbacks starting out like arch Manning started out 214 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: the Ohio State game and your play calling going into 215 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: a shell. No one trashing Mike Bobo today. By the way, 216 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: it's funny. Instead of that happening, you got a quarterback 217 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: with a hot hand. Doesn't really matter how much experience 218 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: he does or doesn't have. If he's getting the job done, 219 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 1: you keep letting him get the job done. And then 220 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: the other part of it that I wondered, Okay, well, 221 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: can Tennessee stretch the field because they've been notoriously incapable 222 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: of doing that against Georgia and Nico last year longest 223 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: pass play seventeen yards, Joey Agilar seventy two, fifty six, 224 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: thirty two, twenty one, and eighteen. He had five passes 225 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: yesterday longer than Nico's longest pass last year. Three of 226 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: those went for touchdowns. Tennessee, though, only had one rush 227 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: of ten plus yards, so they still now they stayed 228 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: committed to that ground game, but George's not gonna let 229 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: you run the ball on them like that. They're just not. 230 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 1: Tennessee actually had a decent enough day and they're gonna 231 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: stay committed to that thing. But Georgia, I mean, just 232 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: to recap how impressive this is now very imperfect team 233 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: because there is no perfect team out there yet, so 234 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: you don't have to keep qualifying your statements about that 235 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: third week of the season. To go on the road 236 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: with a first time starter quarterback, and you're giving up 237 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: what thirty eight I guess in regulation and still winning 238 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: the game knowing, knowing you've got a laundry list of 239 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: things you think you can improve leaving. It's impressive to me. 240 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: So consider this. I'm gonna talk Tennessee for a second. 241 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get right back to Georgia. Consider this. And 242 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: this is not merely me talking, although I agree with 243 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: what's about to be said. There was a coach that 244 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: was rewatching some of the stuff this morning. He was 245 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: texting me back and forth. This is a head coach, 246 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: and he said, you know what's crazy about hypel and 247 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: about Tennessee dot dot dot. I said, what is that? 248 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: He said, the quarterback situation is such that it's obvious 249 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: they trust Joey Aguilar to do more through three games 250 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: than they ever did Nico at any point in him 251 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: being at Tennessee. And I thought about it, and I said, 252 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: that's probably why that guy runs a program. Yeah, that 253 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense. I just don't know that 254 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: anyone could have expected that. I don't know that the 255 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: most diehard optimistic Tennessee fan could expect that through three weeks. 256 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: I mean Joey Agilar was going to be called on 257 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: to need to score a lot on Georgia and did 258 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: at no point in his career. I don't care if 259 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: he played ten more years in Knoxville. Was Niko Yamalaiava 260 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: ever going to tote the jock of the performance that 261 00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: Joey Agilar turned in yesterday first time ever for combination 262 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: of words on the show, But I feel it was necessary. 263 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: I actually feel really good about Tennessee leaving this game. 264 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: It's an expanded playoff era, so by no means is 265 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 1: at the end of anything more than any team. This 266 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: is not a finished product. So I know if I'm Tennessee, 267 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get guys back. I know I got a 268 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: quarterback I can win with. I know I got some real, 269 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: real good talent in that receiver room, probably underrated by 270 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: me coming into the season. I know good and well. 271 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: Quarterback was underrated by me. I just never could have 272 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: expected it to click this quick. Never could have expected that. 273 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: How in the world do you have what happened to 274 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: them at the quarterback position and have it be an upgrade. 275 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: That's one thing where once Hypel gets done thirty eight 276 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: years from now, when he's done and he writes his memoirs. 277 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: I hope he's at least honest and says, yeah, that 278 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: one kind of fell in our lap. Now once it did, 279 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: we made the most of it and we're really good. 280 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: And hey, I'll give you credit there, but there's no 281 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: way you could have designed this so injuries, new quarterback, 282 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: that's great. I feel good about Tennessee again. Here's the 283 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: caveat it's evergreen. Not a perfect team, No one is. 284 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: You just played a really good one yesterday and you 285 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: took him to the wire. The reset though that's necessary 286 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: on Georgia is this most of my big fears? Would 287 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: Georgia have subsided as well? This game really absolved some 288 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: fears that I had about either team. If I'm trying 289 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: to advocate that I think they're going to be a 290 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: playoff contender, that I think they're going to be SEC 291 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: championship contenders. I stated my concerns with Tennessee, not there 292 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: so much anymore once they get healthy. With Georgia, my 293 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: biggest concern was always going to be or what can 294 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: I get offensively? What can I get because I'm losing 295 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: Carson Beck and Carson Beck at his best, the Tennessee 296 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: game last year, for example, is a guy that can 297 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: go win a game for me? And you know, while 298 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: nobody's shed much of a tear when Carson Beck left 299 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: because of the way it went down, Georgia fans then 300 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: look at Gunner Stockton and just like me, probably say, 301 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: all right, is this a limited amount that we can 302 00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: get out of him? Could we ever trust him to 303 00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: go win a game for us? No one really knows. Well, 304 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: we know now, yeah, you can trust them to go 305 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: win a game. You sure can. If the big question 306 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: mark about Georgia is defense. If the big question is 307 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: not can we squeeze enough juice out of the offensive sponge, 308 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 1: but rather can Kirby Smart squeeze enough out of the 309 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: defensive sponge. If that's the lingering question for Georgia as 310 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: we get into the second, third, and fourth quarters of 311 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: this season, I'm fine with it. I'll take my chances 312 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: on Georgia there. So, Georgia's got the best odds to 313 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: win the SEC as of right now, Texas is second, 314 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: Alabama and LSU tied for third. I gotta agree with that, 315 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: because if you tell me george is not gonna have 316 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: some terminal offensive flaw if they're not gonna have some 317 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: terminally low offensive ceiling. I watched them last year not 318 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: be their vintage selves defensively when it came time to 319 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: smash someone up the side of the head with the sledgehammer. 320 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: They did it Texas twice, So I trust them. Defensively 321 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be vintage Georgia, just opportunistic and then 322 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: every now and then sledgehammer to the face. I trust him. 323 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: If the offensive questions are answered, I trust them the 324 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: rest of the way. So a lot of questions answered 325 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: on both fronts. This was a really, really incredible game 326 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: to be a part of. Afterwards. I mean, if you 327 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: listen to Kirby in the postgame, he flat out said 328 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: we probably didn't deserve to win that game. Now, I 329 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: don't ever believe in saying that. I believe they did 330 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 1: deserve to win the game. I believe the team that 331 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: deserved to win the game won the game. Now, you 332 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 1: may feel a little guilty because you've got some breaks, 333 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 1: but let me ask you this, what if instead of 334 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: thirty eight thirty eight, it was thirty eight to seventeen 335 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: and Tennessee missed a field goal, well, it would have 336 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: been probably thirty I mean it would have affected the 337 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 1: total maybe or a second half line, but it wouldn't 338 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: have affected the outcome. No, there's skill in putting yourself 339 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: in position to benefit when the other guy catches a 340 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: bad break or when injury happens or something like that. 341 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,720 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm going to disagree with Kirby and say 342 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: Georgia absolutely deserve to win the game. Now, Tennessee did 343 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: plenty enough to win the game, but they didn't take 344 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: it when it was there. Georgia then did take it. 345 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: So I do disagree with him, I think in that case, 346 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: I just I think I have a little better feel 347 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: about Georgia football and Kirby. It's unfortunate it happens that way, 348 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: but it happens sometimes. Quick trip fueled us all the 349 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: way over there, all the way back. We drove over 350 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: to Knoxville yesterday afternoon. I gotta send a little request 351 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 1: to Danny White, the athletic director. He's been very forthcoming, 352 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: been very transparent on the socials. Today, I'm told about 353 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: some of the the new logistics around Kneeland Stadium. Now 354 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: you feel very safe when you're there. Okay, The trade 355 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: off is the logistics were a nightmare yesterday, and you're 356 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: boy thought he was going to have to spend the 357 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: night in the G ten parking garage there. And I've 358 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: never had trouble getting out of that thing in the past. 359 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 1: So this is constructive criticism because elsewhere, everything else a 360 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: plus chamber of commerce level experience. Let's just let's figure 361 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: out the logistics now, quick trip. No logistics problems none. 362 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't tell you if there were, but there weren't. 363 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: So they fueled us all the way to Knoxville and back, 364 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: a couple of quick trips on the way there to 365 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: and fro as me Mom would say, you get the 366 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: cold burn tap. Many more of you are finding that out. 367 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: As I emphasize, not just visiting for gas, go inside. 368 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: I don't care if you paid with your card at 369 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: the pump. You need to go in there, friendly faces, 370 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: warm customer service. But more importantly, even if the dude 371 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: behind the counter is a jerk, which he never will be, 372 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: but even if he was, if you got cold burn 373 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: tap in there, it's worth it. It's worth a visit, 374 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 1: and they've got it. They've got it, and much more. 375 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: Of course, raisin those trail mix I'm still working on, 376 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 1: but much more we appreciate them. What is that a 377 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: fighter jet flying over top of us, Jesse. It sounds 378 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: like they're doing a flyover on a Friday before a game. 379 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,959 Speaker 1: We got a big crowd gathered live, and I thank you, 380 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: and I ask you to sub to the channel, because 381 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: the sooner we get to five hundred K, the sooner 382 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: I can do the celebration of your choice when we 383 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: get to five hundred K. Let's talk about a game 384 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: yesterday that did not shock me all that much. Bradley, 385 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: here's a good endpoint for you. Georgia Tech beat Clemson 386 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: yesterday twenty four to twenty one, and some were shocked 387 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: by this outcome, and I was shocked as well, but 388 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: I was shocked that people were shocked. I will grant 389 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: you not everyone's watched Georgia Tech this year, and maybe 390 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: you watched Clemson in Week one against LSU, but maybe 391 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: you didn't watch them closely, and maybe you didn't watch 392 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: them against Troy. Georgia Tech's a better foot ball team 393 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: than Clemson. So it was just a blessing to us 394 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: that FanDuel was giving us points with Georgia Tech, because 395 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: I just picked them to win outright, emphatically on the 396 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 1: show last week, to the point where some people wonder, like, 397 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: what's your deal. Well, one team knew their identity, one 398 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: team had the better quarterback, one team was the better team, 399 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: and I'm describing Georgia Tech. So if you watched the 400 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: game yesterday, I'm not sure how you argue with that. 401 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: But I do understand if you didn't watch this for 402 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 1: Chai game that you may think, but but it's Clemson, 403 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 1: but it's Georgia Tech. Yeah, that doesn't really mean anything. Now, 404 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: if you're talking about a matchup from twenty twenty one 405 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: or two or sixteen, yeah, probably does mean something. These 406 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: are different teams. These are not your memas Clemson Tigers, 407 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: and these are not your memas Georgia Tech Yellowjackets. That's 408 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: really that really could be the end of the preview. Bradley, 409 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: what happened there, that's a little concerning. If you're listening 410 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 1: on podcasts, you're lucky. I mean, the purge started to 411 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: happen on one of our monitors back here, So I 412 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: really hope people get what happened yesterday. I was in 413 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: the Tennessee press box watching the walk off field goal, 414 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: which just I think Theatrically, if you were to introduce 415 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: someone to college football who has never watched before. Let's 416 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,640 Speaker 1: say you got a girlfriend, you really think that your 417 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: relationship could get taken to the next step. If she 418 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: loved college football, you're probably right, but you need to 419 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: indoctrinate her somehow. Show her the last thirty seconds of 420 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: the Clemson Georgia Tech game, because anyone who watches that 421 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: and says, nah, that's not for me, is not for you. Now. 422 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: I don't want to be given out relationship advice, but 423 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: I think that's just basic life advice. This was unbelievable. 424 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: Everyone is gathered around me in the Neeland Stadium press 425 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: box and we're all watching this game. We're glued to it, 426 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: and people are like, what is Brent Key doing? And 427 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: Brient Key's over there like this. He's just standing there 428 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 1: like he's planned it all. You know why, because they 429 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: planned it all and so we don't need the time out. 430 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: We got sixteen seventeen seconds. We're fine, we'll spot the ball, 431 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: we'll run them off, we'll run them off, we'll drain 432 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: one from fifty plus and we'll go home after we 433 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: wear a backwards ha at in the press conference and 434 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 1: trash the ap pole. The only thing Brent Key did 435 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: wrong yesterday is he did not publicly acknowledge the Commissioner's poll, 436 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: which is long since had his team ranked and the 437 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: architect of which picked his team to win. Out Right, 438 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 1: we don't need the credit. We don't need it. We're 439 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: fine here. But man, Georgia Tech yesterday, when's the game 440 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 1: twenty four to twenty one? Now again, you're gonna have 441 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: people who didn't watch the game and who are still 442 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: married to logic from ten years ago, so they think, oh, dude, 443 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech pulled a massive upset here, right, No, it's 444 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: not a massive upset at all. It should happen again, 445 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: I disagreed with the point spread, So there's that, And 446 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: then people would probably think, oh, man, they what kind 447 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: of lucky breaks did Georgia Tech have to get to 448 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: be in this thing? Hey, what if I told you 449 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: Clemson needed lucky breaks to stay in the game, kind 450 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 1: of like in week one? What if I told you 451 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 1: Clemson needed some breaks for LSU not to house them 452 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: in their own building. Because that's the reality of it. 453 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 1: Clemson got lucky to still be in this thing. Now, 454 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: luck they had to execute on it. You know what 455 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: I mean. Football luck is different than a scratch off 456 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: lottery ticket giving you twelve hundred bucks kind of luck. 457 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: But there was a turnover on downs inside the ten 458 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: for Georgia Tech. They had to settle for a couple 459 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: of field goals inside the Clemson twenty five. They botched 460 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,919 Speaker 1: a fourth down snap, which was horrendous execution. There was 461 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: a third and twenty two late in the second quarter 462 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: where Clemson's just giving up the drive and they convert 463 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: and then they end up going down there and I 464 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 1: think they scored on a fourth down later. All that 465 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,719 Speaker 1: stuff had to happen for Clemson to be in the game. Guys. 466 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: So I watched this the lens of someone who did 467 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: just that watch the game, and I thought, better team's 468 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: gonna win this game. Frankly, it shouldn't have been that close. 469 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: That's how I saw it. Optimistic Clemson friend hits me 470 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: up after the game. This is a very optimistic Clemson fan, 471 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 1: and he said, Hey, there's still a long way to 472 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: go in the season, which is true, but that's always 473 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: said in a positive light. That's always said in a hopeful, 474 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 1: optimistic sort of way. And it is true that there 475 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 1: is a long way to go in the season. It's 476 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: also true that while that could be good news for Clemson, 477 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: it also could be bad news because you assume one 478 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: and two is the worst it could get. One and 479 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 1: two is not the worst it could get. That extra 480 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: gear for Clemson's just not there as a football team. 481 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 1: I would argue as a program that extra gear is 482 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 1: not there. Now, You'll remember in spring and summer I 483 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: took a very measured approach on this, because hey, I 484 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: could have just been wrong about it. So I chose 485 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: to take the approach with Clemson that one of two 486 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 1: things is going to happen here, and I have no 487 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 1: clue which it's going to be. One is, yeah, there's 488 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: a bunch of returning starters, but really they're just returning 489 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of guys who weren't really elite last year, 490 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: and so you're just gonna get more of the same. 491 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: The difference is people are going to hype the same 492 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: guys up a little bit more and it's going to 493 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: be a big disappointment, or they really are going to 494 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: be one of the best teams in the country and 495 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: Dabo's gonna have the ultimate I told you so dunk 496 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: on the entirety of the college football public moment. Well, 497 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 1: the latter is not going to happen. The former looks 498 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: to be happening. And I don't really know what is 499 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: gonna come of this, because this is a team that 500 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 1: now needs to rewire its expectations. They're still alive, like mathematically, 501 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: it's week three, so no one's dead. I mean, you've 502 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: still got one conference loss. Now, you could go to 503 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 1: Charlotte and you could right the ship and get another 504 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: shot at Tech, or play Miami or play Florida State. Yeah, 505 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: it could happen that way. But think about what we heard. 506 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: Think about what maybe you just individually expected. Cade Klubnick's 507 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: back this year with what I was told was going 508 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: to be a really good offensive line, good receiver corps. 509 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: Now I told myself that I still kind of believe that. 510 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 1: But this defense has got NFL guys all three levels, 511 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: just everywhere. There were reasons for optimism, and I don't 512 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: have that optimism. Clemson still has the third best odds 513 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: to win the league. Clemson in Florida State have the 514 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 1: same odds to win the league. Let me tell you 515 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: something about Clemson in Florida State. I'm saying those teams 516 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: in the wrong order right now. I believe they play 517 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: each other. I do believe that game happens, So I 518 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: don't waste a lot of time on that. I was 519 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: fine taking away and see approach on Clemson this year. Well, 520 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: I have waited long enough, and I have seen enough. 521 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: They're not a player in the national championship picture. As 522 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: it turns out, they never were. So I feel a 523 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: little foolish for spending the time that we did in 524 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: the spring and summer on it. This is also not 525 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 1: to get fifty thousand feet here, because it's Week three 526 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: and we got a lot to talk about. But I mean, 527 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: we've probably got our answer on Dabo. Just this era 528 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: of Clemson football snow knock on him. Guy's legacy has 529 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 1: been secured for a long time. But the experiment for 530 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: Dabbo at Clemson was we're really gonna kind of not 531 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: delve into the portal. We're gonna do it our way. 532 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: The Clemson way is a different way. I don't doubt that. 533 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he's disingenuous when he says that. I 534 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: just think that the Clemson way in twenty twenty five 535 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: is not one that's gonna really put you in the 536 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: hunt for a national championship. He's not unfulfilled. He's got 537 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: multiple championship rings. They owned the league for over a decade, 538 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: so he's been there. He's done that. It's just this 539 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 1: season's change. What was that band expose in the eighties? 540 00:28:55,680 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: Seasons changed? Well, that's Clemson football right now. Thing because 541 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: Dabo can stay there kind of as long as he 542 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: wants to, and it's it's not a crisis. They're gonna 543 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: win a lot of games this year. They'll be There'll 544 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: always be a good, solid program as long as he's there. 545 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: But I don't think there's really gonna be fundamental change. 546 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: I there's a part of me that respects him for 547 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: sticking to his principles and values. I've talked to you 548 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: about this many times, but it's just tough for me 549 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: when I know what Clemson has been, when I know 550 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: what they could be if they just twenty percent course corrected. 551 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: I watched Texas A and M last night with studs 552 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: at receiver that they got out of the portal and 553 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: that being the difference in a game on the road 554 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: at Notre Dame, and I think to myself, Clemson doesn't 555 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 1: need twenty of those guys. But what difference with two 556 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: or three or five guys over the course of a 557 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: couple of portal cycles make it Clemson? And how little 558 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: effort was actually put into exploring that. That's where I'd 559 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: be if I were a Clemson fan. I do have 560 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: good news for you, though, since Georgia Tech won this game, 561 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: we have our first padlock player of the year. You 562 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: want to talk about a padlock stat, Haines King is 563 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: a padlock stat and an American icon. Twenty of twenty 564 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: eight for two to eleven in the passing game yesterday. 565 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: But if you watched this, you know that the real 566 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: stat line was twenty five for one oh one twenty 567 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: five what Josh carries Oh. Georgia Tech as a team 568 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: ran the ball twenty five times, no friend, the quarterback, 569 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: Haines King ran it twenty five times for one hundred 570 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: and one yards and a touchdown. He was responsible just 571 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: pop that paper thrice. He was responsible for three hundred 572 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: and twelve of their three hundred and fifty eight total 573 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 1: offensive yards. That's superhero stuff, That's what that is. They 574 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: film a lot of movies in and around Atlanta. Haines 575 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: King just play himself. That's superhero stuff. Brent Key an identity. 576 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: He talked about it yesterday in the postgame. You know, 577 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: he talked about toughness. There is not a coach out 578 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: there right now that doesn't talk about toughness. Everyone wants 579 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: to be tough. Everyone preaches toughness. It's on everyone's wall, 580 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: it's on the front of everyone's binder for their players 581 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: to take home. But not everyone is. So how do 582 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: you become tough? Well, you become tough by living it 583 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: every day. You don't just say we're going to be 584 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: tough this Saturday. You say we're gonna be tough this 585 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: Tuesday afternoon. In April, you say we're going to be 586 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: tough in every decision we make. Some of it has 587 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: to do with football, some of it has to do 588 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: with how you carry yourself off the football field. It's 589 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 1: just a way of life. I've always believed that there 590 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: is a way that it can work at Georgia Tech. 591 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: I've always believed it's insane that there's a program in Atlanta, Georgia, 592 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,959 Speaker 1: the capital of college football, the intersection of the SEC 593 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: and the ACC, one of the most talent rich areas 594 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: in America. I've always thought it's insane that no one 595 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: could find twenty five kids per cycle to get into 596 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: school there to win. Now Brent Key has, and he's 597 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: done it in the most blue collar way imaginable. They're 598 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: just getting started there. They're just getting started. Now here's 599 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: what they need to be. He knows this, But I 600 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 1: just want to caution the rest of America. That was 601 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: very late to the Georgia Tech Party. So now they're 602 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: going to try to make up for it by being 603 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: the loudest person at the Georgia Tech Party. They're not 604 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: guaranteed anything here. And the reason I say that is 605 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: because that Haines kingstat three twelve of three point fifty eight. 606 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: He can't do that every week. You can't have a 607 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: quarterback do that stuff every week. And if the formula 608 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: that they start to develop, if their identity offensively becomes 609 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: so reliant on him carrying the ball eighteen twenty twenty two, 610 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: twenty five times a game, well then you're going to 611 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: run into some random week where you're playing a much 612 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: inferior opponent. You were favored by eighteen and a half, 613 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: even on the road, and it's just a slog fest 614 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. Why that well. It's because when 615 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: they sat around Monday of game prep, they said, dude, 616 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: we can't run him like this this week, so you 617 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: know what we're gonna do. We're gonna have to win 618 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: in a different way. And then you get to Saturday 619 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: and you find out maybe you can't. That's the risk 620 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: they run, and so that's why I'm trying to caution. 621 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 1: It's one thing if he's just throwing it all over 622 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 1: the place and the receiver rooms full of animals and 623 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: you've got no problem in your razor sharp efficient. That's 624 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: one thing. They're very relying on him running the ball 625 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: right now Auburn Jackson Arnold to kind of feel the 626 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: same way about him. There are a couple of guys 627 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 1: out there actually right now, so beware. They're at poison. 628 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: It's very real, and now it's gonna be heaped upon 629 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 1: you at Georgia Tech, and they just I don't think 630 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: they could play that style every week. So that's my concern. 631 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: But that schedule is manageable. And there's gonna be a 632 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 1: lot of people talking this week about how there's such 633 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: a clear path to Atlanta. There's not a clear path 634 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: to Atlanta. The path is no clearer than it ever 635 00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: was before. You've gotten your way there, maybe a quarter 636 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: the way. Now you're gonna have to deal with expectations. 637 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: So how competitively mature are you and how diversified can 638 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: you become? Offensively? Let's roll on. I didn't skip anything 639 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: to that, bro, only know I did not. Oh man, 640 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: every every sheet of paper is a classic game. Texas 641 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,399 Speaker 1: A and M forty one, Notre Dame forty. We didn't 642 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: have one five Chili Classic. Yesterday we had two five 643 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: Chalai classics. This happened last year. You remember we went 644 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 1: to the Ohio State Oregon game five Chaali Classic. But 645 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 1: earlier that same day Penn State USC also a five 646 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: Chilai Classic, And if I recall, that's the same day 647 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 1: Ole Miss LSU played and that was like a four 648 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: and a half Chalai game. Crazy stuff. So yeah, man, 649 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: I can't imagine those A and M fans that got 650 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,640 Speaker 1: to make that trip. That is, you talk about that 651 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: for fifty years. You're telling your great great grandkids. That's 652 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: a long while, that's a long time away. You're telling 653 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 1: your kids and your grandkids. One day two thousand twenty five, 654 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: made the trip up to South Bend and by the way. 655 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: At that time, we hadn't won a ranked game, and 656 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: I don't know how long, and we go up there 657 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: and Buckner Man Buckner drops the extra point. Boy, here's 658 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: somewhere there's a Boston Red Sox fan and a Notre 659 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: Dame fan and just the name Butckner. I don't care 660 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: about the spelling. Imagine what that does to you. It 661 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: just it draws a visceral reaction out of you. Anyway, 662 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: that story is gonna be great to tell. Signature win 663 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:29,280 Speaker 1: from Mike Elico, signature win for this program. I can't 664 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: believe more people are not addicted to this sport. If 665 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: they watched this last night, you could be agnostic. You 666 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: don't even know what an aggie is fighting Irish why 667 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: they gotta fight doesn't matter, does not matter, if you 668 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 1: know anything, Just watch just look at that. It's unbelievable. 669 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: So to tell you what I can't believe. I can't 670 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: believe this. Texas A and m Offense answered the bell 671 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: like that. I really was amazed. Thirty two carries for 672 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty eight yards. That's what they had 673 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 1: last night. Okay, that's supposed to be the way they 674 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: win the game. That's supposed to be a and m 675 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: their entire mo is. We're going to punch you and 676 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: punch you and punch you, and then we're gonna punch 677 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: you some more, and we're just gonna be a bowling 678 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 1: ball offensively, and Marcel Read's gonna do just enough, and 679 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: he's a threat with his legs as well. But we're 680 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: gonna run the ball to win, and that's a formula 681 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 1: we can take with us on the road. Yeah, they 682 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,800 Speaker 1: needed forty one points last night, and it was mainly 683 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: off Marcel Reid's arm. And it's just not a combination 684 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: of words that I thought would be coming out of 685 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: my mouth. He was seventeen of thirty seven for three 686 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,919 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty yards, which is a very weird stat line. 687 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: He's below forty six percent completion. And so if you 688 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: told me, I mean, just say this out loud now, 689 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:47,279 Speaker 1: Notre Dame's gonna score forty at home. Your QB is 690 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: gonna be well below fifty percent completion percentage. You think 691 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: to yourself, oh, well, hopefully we didn't get blown out 692 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: and let's regroup and get ready for conference play. And 693 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: instead I said no, no, no, no, But you're gonna win? 694 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: What how are we gonna win? Well? Eighty six sixteen 695 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 1: forty five, twenty one, twenty four to thirty one, eighteen 696 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: thirty four. That sounds like Monument Park at Yankee Stadium. 697 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: That sounds like all the retired numbers at Kyle Field. No. No, 698 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 1: those were pass plays for Marcel Reid last night, and 699 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: it could have been worse. He had several overthrows, other 700 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: guys were open. What what happened to the game? I love? No, 701 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: what happened to the Notre Dame secondary? I love? That 702 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: was what I kept thinking to myself, What is this 703 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: home starred? These people? They're not Notre Dame defensive backs. 704 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: I saw someone I saw many people say, Tyler Butner 705 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: cost us a game. Tyler Butner didn't cost you anything 706 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,760 Speaker 1: but an extra point. Your defense cost you a game. 707 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: That's insane. A holder. Now, it is fascinating that Tyler 708 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: Butner's career arc will include starting at quarterback for Notre Dame. 709 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: At one point, he started a game at Alabama, took 710 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: a little lacrosse detour Who's to amongst us, and then 711 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: ends up being a holder because Steve Angeli transferred out 712 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: and he did not hold what he was supposed to 713 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: immunity and they miss an extra point. But Notre Dame's 714 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: scoring forty at home should be good enough to beat 715 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: everyone in the country, and it wasn't because Chris ash 716 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. I know, you don't 717 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 1: have the same personnel you did last year. This is 718 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. This is Notre Dame. Pass rush is markedly 719 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: worse than last year. Tackling is a big issue for them. 720 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,760 Speaker 1: Their secondary outside of maybe the best corner in the country, 721 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: is embarrassingly bad. And I just don't know how that 722 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: happens over the span of a few months. Like it's 723 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,840 Speaker 1: almost to the point where you've watched through two games, 724 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: especially this game being a desperation game at home off 725 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: of bye week, you got to try to be that 726 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: bad in some cases, I don't know what's gonna happen 727 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: with him. I mean, on one hand, they've got two 728 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 1: loss by a combined four points to teams that I 729 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: think are really good. It's not the end of the world, 730 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: it's nothing like that. But they got a long way 731 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:11,280 Speaker 1: to go defensively, a long way to go, or else 732 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: they got to win in shootout fashion. Feel bad for CJ. Carr, 733 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: because I think he's played plenty well enough to be 734 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 1: a two to zero quarterback, but instead here they are 735 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: zero to two. I don't know, man, but you remember 736 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: our view on Texas A and M, which got a 737 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: slight amount of criticism, as I recall, so they were 738 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: bad to finish the year last year. Defensively, Mike Elko 739 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: goes off. Now. He didn't throw a chair in the 740 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: post game of the Bowl game. He did yesterday on 741 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 1: the sideline. We're always in favor of taking it out 742 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: on the chair, not the person, because it's illegal to 743 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 1: do the latter. But we thought A and m's interior 744 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: defensive line could be a concern here. And they got 745 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 1: a good offensive line, and they got a really good 746 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: group of tailbacks, and we really believe in receiver there 747 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: more on that in a second. And Marcel Reid. I 748 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: went out there in the spring. I talked to Colin 749 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: Klein myself, and one of the first things out of 750 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: his mouth was, you know, vertical pass game. I believe 751 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: in it for us this year. I really think we've 752 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: got people to do it now. I listened to that. 753 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: I followed it away. I told you that like half 754 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 1: a dozen times. Well it came time to prove it 755 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: last night, and they proved it and it was there, 756 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: far more than I ever thought it may be there. 757 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 1: But you know what else was there? Transfer receivers. According 758 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 1: to our friends at tech SAgs, listen to this, this 759 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: is the difference in a program like Clemson and a 760 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: program like A and M. A and M looked and said, 761 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,439 Speaker 1: we may have some deficiency at receiver, scratch that we're 762 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 1: not championship caliber at receiver, and our goals to win 763 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: a championship here. So you know what they did. They 764 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: went and got Mario Kriver. They went and got Casey 765 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: Concepcion last year. Transfer receivers for transfer receivers for Texas 766 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,800 Speaker 1: A and M. So far this year, thirty three catches, 767 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,439 Speaker 1: six hundred and seventy yards and seven touchdow As. They're 768 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 1: averaging twenty point three yards per catch. Because that's what 769 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 1: you do when you've got championship aspirations but you got 770 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: a little roster deficiency, You go get the players you 771 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: need to get and don't give me culture because they 772 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:15,439 Speaker 1: got one at A and M. Two. If you didn't 773 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: see them fight last night, if you don't believe Texas 774 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: A and M culture was on full display last night. 775 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 1: You're lying to yourself what you think that magically the 776 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 1: only kids that can adopt and emulate your culture or 777 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 1: in high school, you don't think there are any kids 778 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 1: out there in the portal any given year. It's always 779 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 1: been nonsense. So good for them for going to get 780 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,719 Speaker 1: in the players they needed to. They will always be 781 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: majority high school football recruiting. But this is Texas A 782 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: and M. It's one should be one of the premier 783 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: programs in the country. I always argue with people because 784 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: they cannot have not thing, but man, they hit. They 785 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 1: have hit big time on receiving talent. And it's another page, 786 00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: not quite a chapter even. I just think it's a 787 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: page in the Mike Elko era, the Mike Elko book. 788 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: He's the real deal. He got overlooked when he got 789 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 1: hired there because he got hired in the same cycle 790 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: as Debor did at Alabama. So where everyone was talking 791 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,880 Speaker 1: about saving out de boor in what's he going to be? 792 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: Not a lot of people talked about Ohko, but they 793 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: should because he's really really good. And now you're seeing 794 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: here too, you're seeing it take on a little bit 795 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 1: more of his identity. Here's what he'll see though that 796 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people won't. He'll see things 797 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: that were unacceptable in a win. You can have a 798 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: signature win and still have a lot of things that 799 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 1: are unacceptable that you know could have cost you a game. 800 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: Just because they didn't cost you the game doesn't mean 801 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 1: you shouldn't attack them and try to fix them every 802 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,839 Speaker 1: bit the same you would as if they lost the game. 803 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: So that is what I always look for, because it's 804 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: one thing to get people's attention when you lose. That's easy. 805 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: Can you get guys attention when they go to South Bend, 806 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 1: Indiana and win forty one to forty and everyone including 807 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 1: me is calling it a signature win and you're still undefeated, 808 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: and now everyone's talking about your schedule. Get it right there. 809 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: Auburn comes there, you'll be off a bye. Auburn will 810 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 1: be off the Oklahoma game. Then you've got Mississippi State. 811 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 1: Florida doesn't look nearly as good. You go to Arkansas whatever. 812 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: You go to LSU, LSU offensively little limited right now. 813 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: You go to Missouri after that. South Carolina does not 814 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: look like what they once look like. Arch can barely 815 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 1: complete the forward pass. Right now, everyone's going to talk 816 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: about how workable that schedule is. Just worry about you, 817 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: Just worry about you. This is not advice for Mike Elko. 818 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: If he wants to take it, that's fine. It's just 819 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: the expectation market out there is gonna really ramp up 820 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: on Georgia Tech and Texas A and M and I 821 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 1: don't want to inside a panic or anything, but you know, 822 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: they'll probably lose some games this year, a contrary to 823 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 1: what yesterday told you, They probably will no losers at 824 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 1: Academy unless you try and go when they're closed. Scratch that. 825 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: You can go to Academy when they're closed. Academy dot 826 00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: com you can. I was obviously in Knoxville, Tennessee. Yes, Dad, 827 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: So there was just a nocean of Academy everything. The 828 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 1: little kiddo's playing basketball on the play school goal in 829 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: the parking garage four hours before kickoff, probably purchased an Academy. 830 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: Mom and dad sitting in the chairs over here, I 831 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 1: know where they were purchased. They say, Academy. Are they 832 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 1: getting sunburned? No, they're not, not because of sunscreen, but 833 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 1: because of the canopy over top of them purchased at Academy. 834 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,800 Speaker 1: Oh look a grill? Is that? Tragger? Is it? Pit Boss? 835 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter? Both of them available at Academy. And you'll 836 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 1: notice I'm not reading anything. We don't even own a teleprompter. 837 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,359 Speaker 1: I just know Academy because I go in there a lot, 838 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 1: and we've been partners with them for a long time. 839 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 1: But you may never have been there before. We don't 840 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 1: judge you, but I do think you need to make 841 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 1: a change there because you probably just heard a lot 842 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 1: of things that you're gonna end up purchasing. Anyway. You 843 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: need these things in your life, along with some big 844 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: lee chew in the checkout line. Academy's got it. Academy's 845 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: got it, and Academy dot com has it if you 846 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: can't get there in person, and we appreciate that. Got 847 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 1: a lot of folks, tens of thousands watching live. Just 848 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: make sure you subscribed. How are we going to get 849 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: to five hundred thousand if you're not subscribed? I ask, 850 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: and I try. Actually, our data indicates, what would you say, Jesse, 851 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:23,320 Speaker 1: Probably five hundred to one thousand people are rage watching 852 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: right now, but the other ninety percent are here with 853 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: good intentions. So just make sure you subscribe. Now you 854 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 1: may think, like I do, I don't want to subscribe. 855 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 1: I can watch it no matter what. Why do I 856 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: need to subscribe? Well, technically you don't. You don't need 857 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 1: to do anything. I would strongly ask that you do 858 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:45,319 Speaker 1: it because it doesn't affect you, like once you do it, 859 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,799 Speaker 1: you forget about it. It just helps us and it 860 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: reinforces that we get to do this stuff. It's free. 861 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: Look at these lights they're on tonight because a lot 862 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: of people subscribe. So it just helps us out. Let's 863 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 1: move on. Plenty more games to talk about. There's still 864 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,439 Speaker 1: a big stack here. It's a jam pack show, jam 865 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 1: Pack Show. So LSU beats Florida twenty to ten game 866 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: felt weird to me. Did you watch this whole game? 867 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: I even asked my LSU brethren, I know you watched it. 868 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 1: How'd you feel about the game. The Chalice rating is 869 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 1: not kind to this game now, the child. I mean, 870 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 1: we're just using a basic viewability rating. This was an 871 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: ugly game to watch, so we give it one chalice now. 872 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you're an LSU fan. You got 873 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: to win. But it never really settled in, like the Georgia, 874 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 1: Tennessee game settled in. It got a flow to it. 875 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 1: Notre Dame A and M's crazy, but it had a 876 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 1: rhythm and a flow to it. This was just like 877 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 1: if you've ever gotten too tight into a parking lot 878 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 1: and it's drive, reverse drive, reverse drive, reverse driver. You 879 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: never really got it in drive, you never really got 880 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,920 Speaker 1: it in reverse. You were just stuck because you pulled 881 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: your Yukon into the Pigley Wiggly parking lot and you 882 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 1: didn't really respect the space. Issues couldn't be Phoenix City, Alabama. 883 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: Me and Memo used to walk to the pig on 884 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: Somerville Road. So look, when the opponent is losing a game, 885 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,919 Speaker 1: don't interrupt him. I credit LSU more than anything last 886 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 1: night for just not interrupting Florida as they were in 887 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: the process of historically handing over a game. The easiest 888 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 1: padlocked stat of the week five to one. That is 889 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:32,359 Speaker 1: how decisively LSU won the turnover battle in this game, 890 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 1: and they lost wit weeks on the opening drive for 891 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: a targeting foul. That again, you can complain about it, 892 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 1: or you can work to elect me as commissioner of 893 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 1: this sport. Because on day one as college Football Commissioner, 894 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: I will address the egregious nature of targeting in this sport. 895 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 1: I'm not doing away with targeting, but the fact that 896 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 1: we don't have flagrant one, flagrant two type tiered foul 897 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 1: systems for targeting in this sport is insane. We're just 898 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,920 Speaker 1: throwing guys out a game for playing hard. There's not 899 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: an ounce of malicious intent in how Witweeks hit that dude. 900 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,440 Speaker 1: He's just playing and all of a sudden he's out 901 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: of a game. Why. I don't know. If we're scared 902 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna get sued. Yeah, well, maybe think before you 903 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 1: write the rules so that in the future your best 904 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: explanation is, well, we already wrote the rules. We can't 905 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 1: be perceived as going backwards on them. Pathetic drugs pathetic. 906 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 1: It was not the prettiest night. However, the d showed 907 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:33,720 Speaker 1: up immunity and as long as you got Blake Baker 908 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,439 Speaker 1: down there, you got a shot. Blake Baker an American hero. 909 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 1: He now has LSU bordering on the top ten in 910 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,919 Speaker 1: points per game in the country. And believe me, even 911 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,280 Speaker 1: that's an anomaly. There aren't eleven defenses better than LSU 912 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 1: in the country right now. They just happen to have 913 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: played a couple of decent teams. So LSU's playing lights out. 914 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 1: But you know what I kept thinking about last night 915 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,280 Speaker 1: and this morning and this afternoon as I was thinking about, 916 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 1: how do I discuss Florida? You could do the napier 917 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 1: hot seat stuff. We'll have plenty of time for that. 918 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 1: But you remember a couple of weeks ago. It's gonna 919 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,840 Speaker 1: be weird that I'm bringing this game up. You remember 920 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 1: when Arizona State played Mississippi State. I think it was 921 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,839 Speaker 1: last week, two weeks ago in Arizona State was down 922 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 1: seventeen to three on the road, and Sam Levitt had 923 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: been terrible in the first half, and Kenny Dillingham and 924 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 1: Marcus Arroyo and that offensive staff they got together and 925 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,399 Speaker 1: they said, all right, we're two scores down. We need 926 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,359 Speaker 1: to come from behind, but our quarterback ain't feeling it, 927 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: so we're not gonna throw the ball. And sure enough, 928 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,840 Speaker 1: thirty two of their next thirty nine plays were running plays. 929 00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: And you know what they did. They took the lead. Now, 930 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 1: they ended up losing the game, but they came all 931 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:54,279 Speaker 1: the way back and they took the lead playing to 932 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,640 Speaker 1: the strengths of what they were capable of that afternoon. 933 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: I mentioned that because did none of this last night. 934 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,120 Speaker 1: I thought it was one of their worst efforts offensively, 935 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,760 Speaker 1: because they looked at a quarterback that quite clearly didn't 936 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:10,879 Speaker 1: have it, and they still had him throw the ball 937 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 1: forty nine times. He threw the ball twenty five times 938 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: in the second half. Three picks in the second half. Egregious, 939 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:23,880 Speaker 1: like inexcusable picks. Defense is playing lights out for Florida. 940 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean their defense has played its tail off, it 941 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: has given up, you know what. I'll talk more about 942 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 1: it in the second but just that offensive line and 943 00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: that running back stable should be such that if that 944 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,719 Speaker 1: defense is playing the way it is, you ought to 945 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,959 Speaker 1: be comfortable that you can run your way back into 946 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: a game. And they, for whatever reason, not after one, 947 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 1: not after two, not after three, not after four, but 948 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 1: after five picks, they're still having DJ throw the ball 949 00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 1: and he clearly is not seeing the field. He's seeing 950 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 1: ten defenders out there, and Baker's allowed to play with eleven. 951 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: It was an ugly night. Now, Brian Kelly afterwards had 952 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,920 Speaker 1: some stuff to say, So I gotta be real with you. 953 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 1: A lot of people have had a lot to say 954 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:09,239 Speaker 1: about Brian Kelly. I'm gonna play the sound bite in 955 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 1: a second. Brian Kelly does not have a great offense 956 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,439 Speaker 1: right now. He knows that. The media down there knows that. Now, 957 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: there are two different ways to look at and listen 958 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: to what I'm about to play. Now. I got to 959 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: tell you if I'm Brian Kelly, if I'm the coach 960 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 1: of LSU and I just beat Florida, this is probably 961 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 1: what I would sound like. Roll at Bradley Ran in 962 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: the back. I know you love these immediate postgame sessions, 963 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,800 Speaker 1: but what are you seeing with your offense? Stop? Really? 964 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,800 Speaker 2: Is that the first question? We won the game twenty 965 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 2: to ten. Try another question. What do you want me 966 00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:48,960 Speaker 2: to tell you? I just laid it out for you. 967 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,920 Speaker 2: We played the game to win the game. We played 968 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:54,880 Speaker 2: the game to win the game. 969 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 1: All right? 970 00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:55,960 Speaker 3: How about third down? 971 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 1: Then? What is going on with third down? 972 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 3: It's one game. Last game, we were great on third down. 973 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 2: Your micro, you're looking at this from the wrong perspective. 974 00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:11,280 Speaker 2: LSU won the football game, won the game. I don't 975 00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:13,879 Speaker 2: know what you want from me. What do you want 976 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:14,359 Speaker 2: you want us. 977 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,280 Speaker 3: To win seventy to nothing against Florida? To keep you happy. 978 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 1: No, I think people want to know why you can't 979 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:19,440 Speaker 1: run the ball. 980 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 2: We can run the ball. Did you see the last 981 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 2: play of the game. That's all you need, You just 982 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:30,400 Speaker 2: need one. There's a ridiculous questions and I'm getting tired 983 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 2: of it. That football team just worked their tail off 984 00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 2: to get an SEC win, and you want to know 985 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 2: what's wrong. 986 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 3: You know what, You're spoiled. You're spoiled. This team is 987 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 3: seventeen and one at night, seventeen and one. 988 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,279 Speaker 1: Give them some respect. How about that? 989 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 2: Give them some respect instead of micro analyzing every little thing. 990 00:52:53,440 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 2: This is ridiculous for a group of seasoned reporters, a 991 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 2: question is so out of line. 992 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, so, look, there's a lot of validity to what 993 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 1: he's saying technically. And if I were the LSU coach 994 00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,799 Speaker 1: and just coming off the field, I know how tough 995 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 1: it is to win those games. I mean, you got 996 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:17,720 Speaker 1: Florida's max effort. They played poorly at the quarterback position, 997 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 1: but you got the max effort and you won the game. 998 00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: The last thing you want to be doing is getting criticized. 999 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 1: So if I'm Brian Kelly, I'd probably sound like that. 1000 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:26,719 Speaker 1: But if I were Florida or if I were an 1001 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,880 Speaker 1: LSU fan, I'd have those concerns. So the question is 1002 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:34,280 Speaker 1: totally valid. You know, maybe ask it fifth instead of first. 1003 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, ask it Monday or Tuesday instead of Saturday. 1004 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 1: They're one hundred and eighth in points per game offensively 1005 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 1: right now, like clearly LSU's offense is a shell in 1006 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: terms of what people thought it would be capable of 1007 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: so far. Now that's through three games, and they've played 1008 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:53,359 Speaker 1: two really tough defensive opponents. Last week kind of was 1009 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: what it was against Louisiana Tech. I will even give 1010 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: you benefit of doubt. That was like a letdown spot, 1011 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 1: look ahead spot. So maybe you've just been in a 1012 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: letdown spot for your inferior opponent and you played two 1013 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:11,280 Speaker 1: really good defenses. And Brian Kelly's right, Maybe Brian Kelly 1014 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 1: is telling the god's honest truth that they called that 1015 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 1: game last night in the best manner to win that game. 1016 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,120 Speaker 1: They realized, Hey, the other guy didn't have his fastball 1017 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,839 Speaker 1: or his curveball or his change up. So they keep 1018 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: turning the ball over. We don't really need to try 1019 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 1: and hand it back to him. I mean, Nussmeyer had 1020 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: an egregious pick of his own last night, you know, 1021 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: so he's still got that in him a little bit. 1022 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 1: Let's just pack it in. We'll be happy with the 1023 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: win here and we'll move on down the road. When 1024 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: we need to open the offensive briefcase, it'll be there. 1025 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:47,439 Speaker 1: You know. The reason I'm not going to get worked 1026 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 1: up about that is because if he's right, he's got 1027 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 1: a game an old mess coming up, a game at Vandy. 1028 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,439 Speaker 1: He's got Texas A and M on the schedule, he's 1029 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 1: got to go to Alabama, and he's got to go 1030 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 1: to Oklahoma. I promise you they're not holding all them 1031 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:04,600 Speaker 1: to ten points. As much respect as I have for 1032 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 1: Blake Baker American icon, I don't know that. I don't 1033 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,440 Speaker 1: know that every one of those games is gonna be 1034 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 1: one where LSU can afford to sit there and just 1035 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,240 Speaker 1: grind out a win. They may have to do what 1036 00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:19,800 Speaker 1: Georgia did yesterday. They may have to do what Texas 1037 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: A and M did yesterday. Can they I don't feel 1038 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 1: like they could right now. But Brian Kelly knows his 1039 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: team better than me, And like I said, it's not 1040 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: like they play a bunch of tomato cans the rest 1041 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,319 Speaker 1: of the year where we'll never know either what we're 1042 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 1: gonna find out. We're gonna find out, you know what. 1043 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:36,319 Speaker 1: Maybe they're not good right now and they'll get better 1044 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: over the course of the season too. That's another possibility. 1045 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 1: There's a third possibility, and that is Brian Kelly knows 1046 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 1: that his offense is sort of permanently limited this year, 1047 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 1: and he's trying to enjoy the wins while they can 1048 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 1: get him. That's a very pessimistic view, but I'm in 1049 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,240 Speaker 1: the interest of offering every viewpoint that's on the table. 1050 00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 1: It's still only week three. We're just not going into 1051 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 1: week four. There's still a lot we don't know. I 1052 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: was thinking about the entire SEC last night and thinking 1053 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:08,239 Speaker 1: about how forget about trying to predict it in the preseason. 1054 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:12,879 Speaker 1: I've given you and myself three weeks. Are you any 1055 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 1: closer to being able to predict the SEC right now? 1056 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 1: I'm not. But I can tell you one thing I know, 1057 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,600 Speaker 1: and this one's gonna be tough for me considering what 1058 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:28,200 Speaker 1: I thought I knew in the preseason. But we got 1059 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: to do it. We do it every week, Ladies and gentlemen. 1060 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:35,480 Speaker 1: Our special musical guest, Sarah McLaughlin Florida is this week's 1061 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 1: Sarah McLaughlin Special Hit. It pres the Florida drive chart 1062 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 1: is horrific from yesterday field goal interception, three and out, punt, 1063 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 1: touchdown interception, punt interception, punt, punt interception, interception, and that's it. 1064 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 1: That's an entire season's worth of picks. One three and 1065 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:04,600 Speaker 1: a half hour game. Florida has allowed two offensive touchdowns 1066 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,480 Speaker 1: through three games, and they are one and two. This 1067 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 1: defense is being wasted worse than any Heisman caliber quarterback 1068 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 1: in the history of Lincoln Riley teams. This is horrible 1069 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:19,320 Speaker 1: to watch. Napier is sixteen and twenty one versus FBS 1070 00:57:19,360 --> 00:57:22,920 Speaker 1: opponents at Florida. Now there are one hundred and twenty 1071 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:27,560 Speaker 1: one FBS teams with fewer picks this season than dj 1072 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: Lagway had in one evening against LSU, and Florida still 1073 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 1: has games at Miami, Texas at A and m Georgia 1074 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 1: Adel Miss at Tennessee Florida State. They still play. According 1075 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:48,480 Speaker 1: to the Esteemed Associated Press Top twenty five rankings, the 1076 00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,960 Speaker 1: number four, five, seven, eight, ten, thirteen, and fifteen teams 1077 00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 1: in the country. So if it feels bad now, don't worry. 1078 00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 1: It's gonna get a whole lot worse. The Sarah McLaughlin special, 1079 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:07,760 Speaker 1: the completely inept and neotered Florida offense. We move on. 1080 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 1: I hate to do it. Some people thought in the 1081 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 1: chat that we had forgotten the Sarah McLaughlin special. No, no, 1082 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:18,120 Speaker 1: we just buried it a little bit later in the show. Hey, 1083 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 1: did you see Alabama yesterday? We learned something, didn't we 1084 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 1: Here's what we learned. It turns out in this thirty 1085 00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 1: eight to fourteen win that if you give Ty Simpson time, 1086 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 1: he can look like Dan Marino. And he was twenty fourth, 1087 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 1: twenty nine for three eighty two four touchdowns. He was 1088 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 1: also their leading rusher. So I told you after that 1089 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 1: Week one Florida State game, for someone who picked this 1090 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 1: team to win the national championship, I was more hurt 1091 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 1: than most. And I told you this game right there, 1092 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 1: that's the next game where my mind could be changed, 1093 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 1: because I was come completely out and my mind can 1094 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: be changed. It's not gonna get changed against Wisconsin. You 1095 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 1: know why, because Wisconsin's inferior to you. Now, to be clear, 1096 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 1: I'm not questioning the effort. Alabama showed really good effort, 1097 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 1: really good fire defenses bounced back in a big way, 1098 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: but you still aren't running the ball. Now, if getting 1099 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 1: jam Miller back is all that's gonna take for you 1100 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 1: to run the ball, which I remain skeptical about, but 1101 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 1: I'll grant you it some possibility. Okay, but you're not 1102 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 1: showing me that against Wisconsin. You got to show me 1103 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:35,960 Speaker 1: that against Georgia and the remainder of your conference schedule, 1104 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:39,320 Speaker 1: because I don't know, as good as ty Simpson looked yesterday, 1105 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:42,080 Speaker 1: if I'm just gonna be comfortable blindly counting on him 1106 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 1: to go win games single handedly, it's not fair for him, 1107 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: just like it's not fair to ask Klubnick to do 1108 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 1: it or nus s Meyer to do it. I'm not 1109 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:51,560 Speaker 1: gonna ask Ty Simpson to do it. I hope they don't. 1110 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 1: So that's like the most negative game reaction I could 1111 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 1: possibly give when you blow out a Big ten opponent. No, no, no, no, 1112 00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 1: it's very good for Alabama, very good. They looked utterly 1113 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 1: dominant yesterday. The thing that we all know is not 1114 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:10,560 Speaker 1: every game's gonna be comfortable, and there's gonna come crunch time, 1115 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:13,480 Speaker 1: third and five moments where you need to be able 1116 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:15,640 Speaker 1: to pick up those five yards on the ground. You 1117 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:17,680 Speaker 1: need to be able to move the chains. You need 1118 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 1: to be able to get tough yardage and convert and 1119 01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:24,640 Speaker 1: possess the football and control the flow of the game 1120 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,040 Speaker 1: and limit possessions for the other guy. And if you 1121 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:29,280 Speaker 1: can't run the ball, you can't do those things. And 1122 01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 1: if you can't do those things, remember you already lost 1123 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 1: the game, so you don't have a whole lot more 1124 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 1: wiggle room. I feel like a hater. I'm not a hater. 1125 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:41,880 Speaker 1: I am just a remains to be seener. And you 1126 01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 1: were not gonna convince me of anything against U Well 1127 01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 1: Monroe in Wisconsin. All due respect to the Warhawks and 1128 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 1: the Badgers. Now Bama's got to buy. Then they go 1129 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,920 Speaker 1: to Georgia and that's where it gets real again. Vandy 1130 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 1: made it real for South Carolina last night. Yes, we 1131 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,320 Speaker 1: nailed the prediction. You know, I have no idea how 1132 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:04,240 Speaker 1: this game would have gone had Lenora Sellers not gotten hurt. 1133 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 1: Now South Carolina offensively hadn't been light in the world 1134 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 1: on fire with him. So I'm not going to disrespect 1135 01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 1: Vandy and claim it would have been any different. But 1136 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 1: I know if your minus three turnovers are not winning anything, 1137 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 1: Lenora sellers or not, and South Carolina was the opening 1138 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:23,200 Speaker 1: drive touchdown and then nothing the rest of the game. 1139 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:27,920 Speaker 1: That's pretty jarring. It was just it's been a hollow 1140 01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:31,160 Speaker 1: feeling team so far to me this year. You've noticed 1141 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,439 Speaker 1: every week in the JP Pole, South Carolina's dropped. Every 1142 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 1: week in the Commissioner's Pole, South Carolina has dropped. This 1143 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 1: result really wasn't a shock. I thought Vanderbilt would win 1144 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 1: this game. They they felt like the better team to 1145 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:45,520 Speaker 1: me so far. You got to get past the logos, guys. 1146 01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 1: The gap in the SEC is not what it used 1147 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: to be. It's not at all, So you need to 1148 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:54,960 Speaker 1: ignore again, that's not your memals Vanderbilt Commodore's logo. And 1149 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what your me Mall's Vanderbilt logo even was, 1150 01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:00,520 Speaker 1: nor do I know what her South Carolina logo. I 1151 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:03,960 Speaker 1: just know that this league is compacted right now. Just 1152 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter what the point spread would have 1153 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 1: been thirteen years ago. It's not the way it is anymore. 1154 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:14,160 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt's undefeated. What are they ranked. Oh, we'll talk about 1155 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,280 Speaker 1: it in a few minutes, but they are undefeated. Good 1156 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,720 Speaker 1: for them, Good for you. Look at the schedule. There 1157 01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:24,840 Speaker 1: got Georgia State, Nemesis rival revenge spot Georgia State, Utah State, 1158 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 1: and then they go to Alabama another revenge game for 1159 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:34,520 Speaker 1: the other guy. On October fourth. They still got LSU, Missouri, Texas, Auburn, Tennessee. Yeah, 1160 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 1: Vandy's got a long way to go, but good for 1161 01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 1: them so far. Texas and UTEP what a clinic. People 1162 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:43,040 Speaker 1: paid to watch this game yesterday twenty seven to ten. 1163 01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:45,720 Speaker 1: Not at the end of the first quarter. No, this 1164 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:50,000 Speaker 1: was the whole game. Obviously. Anyone who watched this knows 1165 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:52,680 Speaker 1: what I'm about to say is true. If something is 1166 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 1: very off about arch Manning. It could be physical, it 1167 01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 1: could be mental, don't really care. I hope it's actually 1168 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 1: I don't even know what I hope it is, but 1169 01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:05,840 Speaker 1: it's something's wrong. He was eleven of twenty five or 1170 01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:09,760 Speaker 1: one hundred and fourteen yards and one touchdown in one pick. 1171 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:13,240 Speaker 1: And I don't have much to say about this game. 1172 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:17,600 Speaker 1: It just doesn't look good. And it is the ultimate 1173 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 1: you got your work cut out for you type of 1174 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 1: project right now for Steve Sarkisian. And I trust sark 1175 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 1: as much as I do anyone on this. But man 1176 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:30,360 Speaker 1: like we were the ones who were slow playing the 1177 01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 1: arch hype. And even I'm very, very underwhelmed with the performance. 1178 01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 1: And I never thought the dude was the Heisman favorite. 1179 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 1: And I never used the word generational or elite in 1180 01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 1: anything other than a joking manner, not a disrespectful way. 1181 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:47,680 Speaker 1: But like, this is tough, even by my standards or 1182 01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 1: estimations to watch right now. What's not tough is watching Miami, 1183 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 1: because Miami may be the best team in the country 1184 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 1: right now. Now. There are certain people down there who 1185 01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,440 Speaker 1: probably want me to downplay this. They just played on 1186 01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,160 Speaker 1: the c double you. They're hoping no one saw the 1187 01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:06,840 Speaker 1: game yesterday, Miami forty nine to twelve. We also expected 1188 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,520 Speaker 1: this one. We told you last week that point spread 1189 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 1: was very, very misleading. South Florida had just beaten Boisey. 1190 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 1: They beat Florida. They were seventeen and a half point dogs. 1191 01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:22,200 Speaker 1: Miami's fumbled these kind of opportunities before. Alex Goldish has 1192 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 1: made these games close before. This was a horrible dynamics spot. 1193 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:28,560 Speaker 1: It was a horrible mismatch, and we expected a blow 1194 01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:30,600 Speaker 1: out and we got a blowout. And this Miami offense 1195 01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:32,959 Speaker 1: is strong, and I'm going to put something out there. 1196 01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 1: I was talking to a couple of Miami buddies and 1197 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 1: they hesitantly agreed with me. So I want to throw 1198 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:43,680 Speaker 1: something out there and let's just let it marinate for 1199 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:49,840 Speaker 1: a little while. Miami's big question to me, offensively was 1200 01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 1: not Carson Beck. The big question was how are you 1201 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,680 Speaker 1: going to replace your top half dozen pass catchers from 1202 01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 1: last year? I think their receiving corps maybe better than 1203 01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:05,000 Speaker 1: it was next year early small sample size, and having 1204 01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 1: a better quarterback, well not a better quarterback. What in 1205 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:10,320 Speaker 1: the world I mean they had they had the best 1206 01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:12,640 Speaker 1: in the country last year, but having a really good 1207 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 1: quarterback there and a new blend of talent, it just 1208 01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 1: may be that this blend is better. And you know 1209 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,760 Speaker 1: what else, they don't have to do score forty five 1210 01:05:20,800 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 1: every week. They can, but they don't have to because 1211 01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:26,720 Speaker 1: they also happen to have a defense this year, which 1212 01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 1: is a novel concept. So they look good and the 1213 01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,320 Speaker 1: questions keep getting answered that wide receiver rooms not a 1214 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:37,440 Speaker 1: weakness for them. That secondary still waiting on someone to 1215 01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 1: test it. But it may not be a weakness either. 1216 01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 1: And if that's the case, Miami doesn't really have a 1217 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:47,600 Speaker 1: whole lot of weaknesses, So cannot versus have not the 1218 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:50,720 Speaker 1: age old question. We're going to apply it to Miami. Now. 1219 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 1: Ole Miss beat Arkansas yesterday forty one to thirty five. 1220 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:58,040 Speaker 1: Sam Pittman now drops to seven and eighteen in one 1221 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:04,680 Speaker 1: possession games at Arkansas. And Lane Kiffin he likes the boat, 1222 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 1: he likes the beach. It sounded like he went down 1223 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,400 Speaker 1: to the Caribbean and just got an island chain to 1224 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 1: start at quarterback Trinidad Chambliss from Ferris State University last year, 1225 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:21,080 Speaker 1: and he just wins with him. That's the backup quarterback 1226 01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 1: at ole Miss. Many of you had to wait until 1227 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 1: yesterday a kickoff to find that out. They had four 1228 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five yards total offense, seven of seven 1229 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:30,560 Speaker 1: in the red zone. I almost feel like yawning as 1230 01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 1: I read this off. I watched so many teams out 1231 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,720 Speaker 1: there struggle to chew gum and walk at the same 1232 01:06:36,760 --> 01:06:39,919 Speaker 1: time with all of their starters in and then Lane 1233 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: Kiffin's like, Trinidad, what, I don't care. Where did he 1234 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 1: play Ferris what the big circular Farris State? Oh, put 1235 01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:51,880 Speaker 1: him in whatever, and he just draws up the plays 1236 01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: in the dirt and they're eight of twelve on third 1237 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: down and they win and they don't cover because that's 1238 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: not something Lane Kiffin believes in. But they win, and 1239 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 1: now they've got Tulane coming in. There is that this week? 1240 01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 1: Yet it is? It'd be fun and then LSU and 1241 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:14,720 Speaker 1: I assume Austin Simmons will be back. So that's tough 1242 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:17,280 Speaker 1: to listen to Sam Pittman talk about those one possession games, 1243 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 1: by the way, not fun. Everyone loves Sam Pittman. That's 1244 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:25,120 Speaker 1: not fun. What is fun is we are going to 1245 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:26,919 Speaker 1: Oh you know what I didn't do, Bradley, My bad. 1246 01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: I didn't announce that we are. We're going to Lincoln, 1247 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 1: Nebraska this week. And if you go to the Peate 1248 01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:36,560 Speaker 1: State Store right now peytstatemterial dot com the Fall Don't 1249 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:38,640 Speaker 1: Lie Tour. We have a new T shirt every week, 1250 01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, for the new destination for the tour that week. 1251 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 1: Collector's items. They tell me it's one week only and 1252 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 1: then they're never available again. So I've never been to 1253 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:51,680 Speaker 1: Nebraska in my life. I've never been to the State 1254 01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:55,920 Speaker 1: of Nebraska. I've never been to the University of Nebraska. 1255 01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:58,520 Speaker 1: I've never been to Lincoln, I've never been to the 1256 01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 1: stadium there, But you know what, the Busting Bowl has 1257 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,880 Speaker 1: happened in this week, So will Compton going to be there? 1258 01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:08,880 Speaker 1: Taylor Lawan gonna be there. Fellow podcast Matt Ruhle, I'm 1259 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,680 Speaker 1: told is going to be in the house cause he 1260 01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 1: also happens to be the head coach of Nebraska. How 1261 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:15,680 Speaker 1: could we miss this? How could we miss this? And 1262 01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:17,960 Speaker 1: how could you not go to petstatemterial dot com right 1263 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,519 Speaker 1: now and see the limited edition, one week only T 1264 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:23,639 Speaker 1: shirt commemorating this. We have one of those every week 1265 01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 1: just so happens this one says Lincoln, Nebraska looking forward 1266 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:28,519 Speaker 1: to that. There's a ton of stuff in the Peate 1267 01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:31,240 Speaker 1: State store. Not just that that rom Anudle Express shirt. 1268 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,719 Speaker 1: Savannah State has been wearing that thing around the house, 1269 01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 1: so she's approved it. It's better than any endorsement I 1270 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:42,559 Speaker 1: could give. Bad news, ladies and gentlemen, bad news on 1271 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:47,840 Speaker 1: the job security front. It's that time of year. Two 1272 01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:52,559 Speaker 1: head coaches got fired today, Brent Prye and Deshaun Foster. 1273 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:56,679 Speaker 1: So already we've got coaching searchers ramping up at Virginia 1274 01:08:56,720 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 1: Tech and UCLA. I wanted to talk about pride first. 1275 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 1: He was sixteen and twenty four. Entering his fourth season, 1276 01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:08,040 Speaker 1: he was three and eight, seven and six, seven and six, 1277 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:11,320 Speaker 1: they started to three. It really felt weird. It felt 1278 01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 1: like a doomed season to start out, because they got 1279 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:18,480 Speaker 1: gutted by the portal, they lost some coaches, and ironically 1280 01:09:18,479 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 1: his first and last game at Virginia Tech, he lost 1281 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:24,040 Speaker 1: to Old Dominion. They trailed thirty one to nothing yesterday 1282 01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:27,639 Speaker 1: to Old Dominion, so it was done. They won double 1283 01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 1: digit games every year from four to twenty eleven under 1284 01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 1: Frank Beamer. Now I saw some people speculating about how 1285 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 1: good this job is, and I that's a question best 1286 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:43,760 Speaker 1: left for agents. I don't think too terribly highly of it. 1287 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,680 Speaker 1: I think incredibly highly of the history of the program. 1288 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:51,519 Speaker 1: What you worry about is what if Frank Beemer was 1289 01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:55,599 Speaker 1: really good and otherwise this isn't a good job. That's 1290 01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,280 Speaker 1: like a concern that I would have if I were 1291 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 1: a Virginia Tech fan. Now I'm a college football I 1292 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:04,000 Speaker 1: love Virginia Tech, Lovelane Stadium, love the tradition there. So 1293 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean I very very much missed this being a 1294 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 1: national title player. Yes, kids, Virginia Tech, once upon a 1295 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 1: time was a national championship player, and I hope they 1296 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:17,799 Speaker 1: can be again. But I was looking Nakos and Andy 1297 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:21,240 Speaker 1: Staples and Chris Lowe. They sort of collaborated on an 1298 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,479 Speaker 1: article over on on three dot com today about some 1299 01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:28,640 Speaker 1: of the potential replacements. I gotta be honest with you, 1300 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 1: Alex Golish's name was on that list. There is not 1301 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 1: a prayer I'm leaving us up for Virginia Tech. If 1302 01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 1: I'm goalish, I can do better than that. I'm just 1303 01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 1: being honest with you. I can do better than that. 1304 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 1: Buster Faultner at Georgia Tech is gonna have his name 1305 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:45,559 Speaker 1: thrown out there. Some Look, I'd recommend to all these guys, 1306 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:49,439 Speaker 1: if your stock is that high right now, you need 1307 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:53,240 Speaker 1: to understand that it's not gonna fade and you will 1308 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:56,439 Speaker 1: have better opportunities, Like there will be other jobs come open. 1309 01:10:56,520 --> 01:11:00,519 Speaker 1: Will Stein at Oregon, same thing, same thing. Everyone knows 1310 01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 1: those guys are going to get jobs. But you gotta 1311 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,160 Speaker 1: have the right deck of cards, especially if you got 1312 01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:10,800 Speaker 1: a name that's a hot commodity. Before you just go, 1313 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna go grab the first one. No, don't, don't 1314 01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:19,559 Speaker 1: necessarily do that. The portals open, you know, that's the 1315 01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 1: way these things work these days, the portal opens the 1316 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: moment your coach gets fired. Now, normally it's the end 1317 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,720 Speaker 1: of the season, but that's not the case here, nor 1318 01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: is that the case for UCLA with Deshan Foster. So 1319 01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:35,120 Speaker 1: the portals open for the next thirty days, starting tomorrow. 1320 01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:40,160 Speaker 1: That means those guys can leave tomorrow. And since they 1321 01:11:40,200 --> 01:11:43,360 Speaker 1: haven't played four games this year yet, every one of 1322 01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:46,400 Speaker 1: them that is eligible to have a red shirt year 1323 01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: can count this year as a red shirt year. So 1324 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:52,120 Speaker 1: if I've played two games or three games as a 1325 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:56,760 Speaker 1: starting defensive tackle at Virginia Tech, I could transfer to 1326 01:11:56,800 --> 01:12:00,559 Speaker 1: Auburn tomorrow. I can't play this year, but what I 1327 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:03,040 Speaker 1: can do is take a red shirt year. And so 1328 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:07,040 Speaker 1: this year never even happened. And I'm there, and I'm 1329 01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:09,439 Speaker 1: not at Virginia Tech, by the way, So they're still 1330 01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:11,720 Speaker 1: trying to field a team. UCLA is still trying to 1331 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:14,040 Speaker 1: field a team. By the way, speaking of UCLA, is 1332 01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 1: Niko Iamliava staying out there? Don't know, haven't talked to him, 1333 01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 1: have no idea. Deshaun Foster also got fired today by UCLA. 1334 01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:26,400 Speaker 1: That's what happens when you pay New Mexico one point 1335 01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,720 Speaker 1: two million dollars to come in your building and they 1336 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 1: beat you thirty five to ten. I don't really blame 1337 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:35,320 Speaker 1: Deshan Foster because he never should have had the job. 1338 01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:38,160 Speaker 1: I would have taken the UCLA job if they offered 1339 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:40,880 Speaker 1: it to me. It's not his fault. Like he didn't 1340 01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:45,120 Speaker 1: offer himself the job, completely inept. Athletic director offered him 1341 01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,880 Speaker 1: the job, and I don't think that athletic director will 1342 01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:50,599 Speaker 1: be afforded the opportunity to offer anyone else the job 1343 01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 1: because knowing some of the internals around UCLA like I do, 1344 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,200 Speaker 1: now that I've spoken to some people out there, then 1345 01:12:57,200 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 1: there's probably a healthy amount of churn just above and 1346 01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 1: beyond the head coaching position that's coming. But it's very, 1347 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 1: very interesting because that is a very what was the 1348 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:10,599 Speaker 1: word what was the word Stuart Mandel I saw used 1349 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:15,599 Speaker 1: earlier today? Very apathetic fan base at best. Sometimes it is. 1350 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,760 Speaker 1: It is by far the second most important program in 1351 01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:22,400 Speaker 1: its own city. It's got a stadium that is forty 1352 01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 1: five minutes to an hour away from campus, and the 1353 01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:29,439 Speaker 1: nil situation is such that they're way more organized for 1354 01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:32,920 Speaker 1: basketball than they are for football. But hey, you get 1355 01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:34,880 Speaker 1: to play in the Big Ten. So glad that we 1356 01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,040 Speaker 1: broke the Pac twelve apart for this, by the way, 1357 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:42,120 Speaker 1: just fantastic job by all parties involved out there. Bravo. 1358 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 1: By all means, let's fly guys to Rutgers for a 1359 01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:48,519 Speaker 1: conference game and Maryland for a conference game for a 1360 01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:51,479 Speaker 1: few extra dollars. Now, are we going to completely implode 1361 01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:54,040 Speaker 1: an entire conference for no good reason? And are we 1362 01:13:54,080 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 1: gonna suck and hire poorly? Of course we are where UCLA, 1363 01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,360 Speaker 1: but we'll have that Big ten sticker on our helmet, 1364 01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:04,200 Speaker 1: and that's what really counts. No one else in the 1365 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:10,480 Speaker 1: Big ten's complaining. You notice, like in the SEC, Vanderbilt's good. 1366 01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:15,439 Speaker 1: Mississippi State just beat the defending conference champ from the 1367 01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:20,519 Speaker 1: Big twelve. Everyone's trying in the SEC. The bottom third 1368 01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:23,800 Speaker 1: of the Big Ten is a wasteland. And you think 1369 01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:27,200 Speaker 1: Ohio State's complaining about that. You think Michigan, You think 1370 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 1: Penn State and Oregon are complaining about that. They love it. 1371 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 1: They hope nothing changes. I mean, imagine Kirby Smart at 1372 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:38,400 Speaker 1: Georgia being able to know that South Carolina was Maryland. 1373 01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:42,600 Speaker 1: Imagine him being able to know that Vanderbilt was actually UCLA. 1374 01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:46,280 Speaker 1: Imagine how great that would be. Hey, grit's great to 1375 01:14:46,280 --> 01:14:49,439 Speaker 1: be Ryan Day. It's great to be Sharon Moore once 1376 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 1: he comes back from suspension. It's great to be Dan Landing. 1377 01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:55,439 Speaker 1: They lay hope nothing changes, adds some more teams to 1378 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:57,479 Speaker 1: the Big Ten, as long as they don't actually take 1379 01:14:57,520 --> 01:15:01,040 Speaker 1: winnings seriously. So where are they gonna go on this job? 1380 01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:03,599 Speaker 1: Because I don't know how attractive this job is. You've 1381 01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:06,760 Speaker 1: got to get your administrative affairs in order before you 1382 01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:08,559 Speaker 1: hire a head coach. I don't even know who's gonna 1383 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:12,000 Speaker 1: hire the head coach right now and then secondarily soon 1384 01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:15,720 Speaker 1: to become primary. What kind of quality of job is this? 1385 01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:18,680 Speaker 1: You think about the guarantees If I'm a hot commodity, 1386 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,680 Speaker 1: the guarantees I'm gonna need in io wise before I 1387 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,640 Speaker 1: come out there are plenty, and I don't know that 1388 01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:27,439 Speaker 1: they exist right now. But if they do, let me 1389 01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:31,800 Speaker 1: give you some advice. Get someone from the South. Get 1390 01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 1: someone from the South who is completely off his rocker, 1391 01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 1: twenty five hours a day invested in recruiting. There's a 1392 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,240 Speaker 1: guy in Eugene, Oregon who lives that life. And I'm 1393 01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:46,240 Speaker 1: not saying there's another Dan Landing around the corner. That's 1394 01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:50,080 Speaker 1: your blueprint. Find that kind of guy and get him 1395 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,160 Speaker 1: out on the West coast and he's gonna make some 1396 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,639 Speaker 1: people uncomfortable, and he's gonna wake some people up, and 1397 01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:58,479 Speaker 1: there may be some dead fruit on the tree that 1398 01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:00,320 Speaker 1: he's got to shake loose. And it's not going to 1399 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:03,080 Speaker 1: be an overnight turnaround because you didn't drive it in 1400 01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:06,679 Speaker 1: the gutter overnight. But the UCLA jobs open as well. 1401 01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:11,320 Speaker 1: Very interesting. Oh my nose was itching the whole segment, Bradley, 1402 01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:14,360 Speaker 1: but I held off. They're watching us in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, 1403 01:16:14,400 --> 01:16:18,720 Speaker 1: at Little Rock, Arkansas, and Monroe, Georgia. We have we 1404 01:16:18,840 --> 01:16:25,400 Speaker 1: have an issue we have to talk about. Unfortunately, I 1405 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:28,160 Speaker 1: have in my hand hot off the presses the week 1406 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:32,000 Speaker 1: four edition of the AP Poll. It is a disaster, 1407 01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 1: probably the worst I've seen them spit out so far 1408 01:16:36,640 --> 01:16:39,040 Speaker 1: this year. Bradley is putting it up on the screen 1409 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:42,840 Speaker 1: right now. No problem with Ohio State being number one. Hey, 1410 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 1: let me ask you something. What in the world has 1411 01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,000 Speaker 1: Penn State done to be the number two team in 1412 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 1: the country. And for that matter, look who number four 1413 01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:56,000 Speaker 1: is Miami's number four? On what planet have Penn State 1414 01:16:56,040 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 1: and LSU outplayed Miami so far this year. Miami's beaten Nome, who, 1415 01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:05,280 Speaker 1: by your own admission not mine, is still a ranked team, 1416 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:10,040 Speaker 1: and then they just slaughtered USF yesterday. Meanwhile, Penn State 1417 01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:13,640 Speaker 1: is skipping past high school teams and LSU's struggling to 1418 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:19,600 Speaker 1: score twenty on anyone, and Miami's behind them. Interesting. Interesting, 1419 01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: But I can't spend a whole lot of time on 1420 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:24,479 Speaker 1: that because I have much bigger fish to kill, not 1421 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:27,880 Speaker 1: even fried, just outright kill here. Oregon six, Yeah, that's good. 1422 01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:32,360 Speaker 1: FSU seven is good. I know this hurts a lot 1423 01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:34,800 Speaker 1: of people's pride. Texas is not a top ten team 1424 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:38,040 Speaker 1: right now. Texas has lost to the only good team 1425 01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 1: they've played, and then they looked very, very lethargic in 1426 01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:46,439 Speaker 1: wins against San Jose State and UTEP and they're eight 1427 01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 1: hy for that matter. What's Illinois doing in the top ten? Now? 1428 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with Illinois in isolation, but 1429 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:57,720 Speaker 1: I just want to ask you something. In fact, I 1430 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:00,280 Speaker 1: want to kind of skip over the whole eleven through 1431 01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 1: fifteen area, because that's good to me. O U, Iowa State, Ole, 1432 01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:09,439 Speaker 1: Miss Bama, Tennessee, that's fine. Mine will probably look like 1433 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:13,599 Speaker 1: a version of that. We got a big, big problem. 1434 01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 1: The AP pole is the AP pole is an illegitimate product. Okay, 1435 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:22,799 Speaker 1: So Illinois is sitting at number nine right now, Georgia 1436 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:26,559 Speaker 1: Tech's at eighteen, and Vanderbilt is at number twenty. I 1437 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 1: ask you on what planet has Illinois done more to 1438 01:18:30,160 --> 01:18:33,280 Speaker 1: warrant their ranking than Vandy and Georgia Tech. Vandy and 1439 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech are classic examples of, Hey, we didn't even 1440 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 1: invite you to the party, and now you showed up 1441 01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:40,599 Speaker 1: and we have no idea where to put you. That's 1442 01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:44,200 Speaker 1: the AP pole. It's like we got a pre existing notion, 1443 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 1: an idea about Illinois. They haven't done anything to screw 1444 01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:51,040 Speaker 1: it up yet, you know, their best wins Duke otherwise 1445 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:52,800 Speaker 1: we don't even remember who they played, but they haven't 1446 01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:55,559 Speaker 1: done anything to screw it up. But then there's Vandy. 1447 01:18:56,240 --> 01:18:59,360 Speaker 1: Vandy went on the road and smoked Virginia Tech, and 1448 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:01,879 Speaker 1: then they went on the and they beat South Carolina. 1449 01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:06,280 Speaker 1: Handedly I guess we gotta rank them where I don't twenty, 1450 01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:10,800 Speaker 1: I don't know Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech went to Colorado 1451 01:19:10,960 --> 01:19:14,519 Speaker 1: minus three turnovers in the first quarter, still win, and 1452 01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:16,760 Speaker 1: then they come home and they beat Clemson. Should have 1453 01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 1: been more emphatic than it was. Oh man, they're good too. Well, 1454 01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:25,840 Speaker 1: we got to put them in there somewhere. I mean, 1455 01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:28,559 Speaker 1: don't put them too Hi, it's Georgia Tech. It's just 1456 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:34,080 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech eighteenth. Yeah, that's fine Illinois. Though I ran 1457 01:19:34,160 --> 01:19:36,400 Speaker 1: my mouth about him all spring, and I put him 1458 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:38,960 Speaker 1: on the cover of this preview magazine I publish, and 1459 01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:41,760 Speaker 1: I wrote articles about him. You know, so I had 1460 01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:46,879 Speaker 1: him pre season top ten. I gotta keep them top ten. Drugs, drugs, 1461 01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:51,120 Speaker 1: swindest thing is being laughed at. It should be laughed at. 1462 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:53,840 Speaker 1: The Commissioner's poll in the next two or three weeks 1463 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:58,920 Speaker 1: will overtake the AP pole as the definitive rankings viewpoint 1464 01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:02,760 Speaker 1: on colle football in this country. Again, give me two 1465 01:20:02,800 --> 01:20:05,040 Speaker 1: or three weeks and we will overtake the AP pole. 1466 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:08,280 Speaker 1: In the meantime, I regret to inform you Notre Dame, 1467 01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:12,000 Speaker 1: according to our friends at the AP, is a ranked 1468 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 1: team as of sundown on Sunday, September fourteenth. Why well, 1469 01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 1: they haven't won a game yet. But hear me out. No, 1470 01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:25,479 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear you out that part where 1471 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:27,600 Speaker 1: you said they haven't won a game yet. That was 1472 01:20:27,680 --> 01:20:30,559 Speaker 1: kind of all I needed to hear. Yeah, but you 1473 01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:33,680 Speaker 1: don't have the whole picture. I think you may not 1474 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 1: have the whole picture. I think you have a picture 1475 01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:38,800 Speaker 1: that doesn't actually exist. I think the picture is this. 1476 01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:42,200 Speaker 1: You had a preconceived idea of what Notre Dame was. 1477 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:44,800 Speaker 1: That's okay, we all did. The difference is some of 1478 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:47,599 Speaker 1: us have watched them play. They haven't won a game. 1479 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,599 Speaker 1: They've had two tries, they haven't won a game, and 1480 01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:53,800 Speaker 1: so we're gonna drop them for now, and then we're 1481 01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:55,639 Speaker 1: gonna let them play the rest of their season, because 1482 01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:58,920 Speaker 1: you see, we know Notre Dame eventually will win games. 1483 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:02,360 Speaker 1: And that's where part two of the picture that doesn't 1484 01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:05,680 Speaker 1: exist yet actually exist in your mind, and that is 1485 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:10,080 Speaker 1: you expected them to be something. They haven't been that yet. 1486 01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:13,120 Speaker 1: But since their starting point was top ten, you think 1487 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:16,960 Speaker 1: they've quote unquote dropped to twenty four, and then you 1488 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 1: expect them to go on to do something like half 1489 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:21,479 Speaker 1: of you think they'll still be ten and two. Well, 1490 01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:23,320 Speaker 1: you know what, if they win ten in a row, 1491 01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:27,040 Speaker 1: then we can adjust accordingly. But they haven't yet, so 1492 01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:30,679 Speaker 1: what you thought would be hasn't been what you think 1493 01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:34,360 Speaker 1: will be should have no bearing on a team's current ranking, 1494 01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 1: and yet there sits notre dame at twenty four. This 1495 01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:42,840 Speaker 1: AP poll is not worth the paper it was printed on. 1496 01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:45,439 Speaker 1: And I know that because I told Bradley, don't even 1497 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:47,840 Speaker 1: print it out. See there's nothing even on this piece 1498 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 1: of paper. I had to make a graphic every day, 1499 01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:57,439 Speaker 1: every day that this thing remains in circulation. Every day 1500 01:21:57,479 --> 01:22:00,800 Speaker 1: that the Commissioner's poll has not overtaken this. Every day 1501 01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:03,640 Speaker 1: that ESPN goes on the air with the number of 1502 01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,080 Speaker 1: the AP ranking next to those teams instead of the 1503 01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 1: Commissioner's poll is a day that this country drifts further 1504 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,519 Speaker 1: away from God. We got to get back. We got 1505 01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 1: to get we got we gotta get. We got a 1506 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:15,479 Speaker 1: course correct. That's what we've got to do. The AP 1507 01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:20,040 Speaker 1: poll is pathetic this week, and balls are in their court. 1508 01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:22,719 Speaker 1: Our balls are in their court. As meanwhile, would say 1509 01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:25,720 Speaker 1: they can correct it, but that would require watching the 1510 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:29,120 Speaker 1: games with a tactful eye. And I just don't get 1511 01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 1: the sense that AP voters are that interested in college football. 1512 01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:35,960 Speaker 1: I really don't. Not all of them. Not these ballots 1513 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 1: are public, by the way, A lot of them are 1514 01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:43,120 Speaker 1: good not all of them.

And if you think that maybe a 1525 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:16,640 Speaker 1: team's being sold too early, go bet it. Or if 1526 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,960 Speaker 1: you think that maybe Hain's King is an underdog to 1527 01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 1: win the Heisman right now you're right, there's some good 1528 01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:24,640 Speaker 1: value to be had there.
