1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal hull. That for me, I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty.

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 2: I've heard so many players say, well, I want to

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 2: be happy.

5
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 3: You want to be happy for a day?

6
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: Edith Steak, is that woo woom and then and tie?

7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: College Football nine nine? It is here, Dan, we are

8
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: now officially over the hump. We have made it through

9
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: the halfway point. As we round the bend, get into

10
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: the end of October, the start of November, this is

11
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: when it's going to start to get real, when conferences

12
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: will work themselves out, when we have drama and we

13
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,919
Speaker 1: talk about it all on the soleibrabl podcast. My friend,

14
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm good?

15
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 3: Does this mean now it's three months until the national championship.

16
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: It's still a wild tie.

17
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 3: It's so long, it's a longer it's a longer season.

18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 3: Some say great, Some say, man, that's that's a long

19
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 3: time to keep wait for that big time action. Life

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 3: is good, ty. Week nine is great. I've in the

21
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 3: past said Week ten is my favorite week because that's

22
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 3: when you know, temperatures start to get a little bit crisper,

23
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 3: we start to get into conference races in earnest like

24
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 3: there is something about knowing who a team or teams

25
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 3: are or who teams aren't. That feels like it's rounding

26
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 3: into shape in week ten. I can tell you this

27
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: as I looked at the schedule because I try to

28
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 3: see I was.

29
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: There a monsoon game? Is there?

30
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 3: You know it's gonna be crazy cold in Madison or

31
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 3: something ninety degrees at kickoff in College Station for the

32
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 3: LSU game hosty. So the crispness is not applicable across

33
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 3: the board around week nine week ten, but there is

34
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 3: there is something nine weeks in. That's how many we are,

35
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 3: and there was a week zero two for some of

36
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 3: these teams. So nine weeks in and this is where

37
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 3: I'm going with this week and how I'm looking at it.

38
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 3: There are a number of big games. There are a

39
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 3: number of medium size games. There are a number of

40
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: teams where in previous weeks I've said something like, what

41
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: has this team done to be, you know, earning an

42
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: eighteen point spot here? Sure, why the hell is this

43
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: team favored by twenty three and what have they done

44
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 3: this year? But then we get to week nine and

45
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 3: maybe a team has an upswing, maybe a team had

46
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 3: a nice little two three four week, but it hasn't

47
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 3: been the same since. But I'm looking at these teams

48
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 3: and now you get a sense for what their ceiling

49
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 3: may be, what their floor might be. And I guess

50
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 3: I'm just a hopeless romantic Tie because when I look

51
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 3: at some of these teams, I'm still into them.

52
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: I'm still in like.

53
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: After all this time, Tie, Yeah, I have my doubts

54
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 3: about Miszoo the luthor burdens over there lining up, and

55
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 3: I just I get a little bit bashful, I get

56
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 3: a little bit rosy in the cheeks.

57
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: Tie.

58
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 3: I'm still into a lot of these situations. And so

59
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 3: that's to me where the difficulty in picking some of

60
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 3: these games and parsing the heart from the head, Tie,

61
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: And so we'll get through who I'm still into.

62
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: I'm still because I like a lot of people here.

63
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: It's so funny that you bring this up. Yeah, not

64
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: that wonderful Ice Haley Williams shout out Paramore the best. Yeah,

65
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,839
Speaker 1: not that. But I had almost the same reaction going

66
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: through the games this week, because it is at that

67
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: point in the season where you know, and we talk

68
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: about this a lot. We have stats. We like the

69
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: stats to some extent, we don't use them for everything,

70
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 1: but they're interesting data points to identify trends and whatnot.

71
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: I won't go into it. Yeah, it's at the point

72
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: now where you've got enough statistical information where you could

73
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: use that to guide you, or you could just sort

74
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: of use your heart, or you could use your eyes. Right,

75
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: you're watching the games, all the fields kind of in

76
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: conflict and totally. The deeper we get into a season,

77
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: inevitably I have a harder time picking the games because

78
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: I feel like with more information, I do worse. Right

79
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: then at the beginning of the season, where nobody really

80
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: has anything to go on, you're just sort of making assumptions,

81
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: And for me this season, it has worked out better

82
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: in the early part than the later part. We're ready

83
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: to be heard again, is what we're saying. We are

84
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: ready to be hurt again. We've got a lot to

85
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: discuss here on this week nine preview episode. Thank you

89
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: This week, we've got a big pick them game. We

90
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: had a really big one last week in which we

91
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: gave away a gaming console. Excuse me. This week we

92
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: are going to give away a solo stove Mesa XL

93
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: fire pit. We gave this away last year. Not everybody's

94
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: got the patio space or just any space to put

95
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: the big old fire pit. This is one of those

96
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: cool little tabletop ones that you can take out with you.

97
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: It's portable, you can take to a friend's house. You

98
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: could roast some marshmallows on it and just hanging out

99
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: on your porch. Because I feel like the weather at

100
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: some point, at some point, we'll start to get a

101
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: little crisper as we get deeper into the year, the

102
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: latter stages of November, it might be nice to have

103
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: some compare onion that can generate heat out on the patio.

104
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 3: With Hi settle down, you're talking about generating heat with

105
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 3: companions here.

106
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 1: Still into you, Baby, Still into you, Still into Still

107
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: in Solo stove Mesa XL will send you a couple

108
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: of the woodschips with it as well. Not a sponsor.

109
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: Find this on our own accord, but yeah, we'd love

110
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,560

114
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: let's pick some games. That's Dan time. What did you

115
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 1: think of this weekly slate when you looked it over?

116
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: Did you feel ten out of ten? One out of ten,

117
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: five out of ten? Where were you at on this thing?

118
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: I think like a point two.

119
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: Wow, that's way higher than me.

120
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't know.

121
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 3: So there are certain matchups and like, look, we have

122
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 3: Ohio State favored by twenty five and a half, Ole

123
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 3: miss favored by three touchdowns. You know, Memphis favored by nineteen,

124
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 3: Oregon favored by twenty five. But I don't know the

125
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 3: depth of it that I could see being crazy excited

126
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 3: about the endings of eight interesting, crucial games with repercussions.

127
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: And so for me, I'm never I'm never going to

128
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 3: look at a Week nine of the college football season

129
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 3: and say it's a six point three, Like, I don't know.

130
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 3: There's so much entertainment for me here.

131
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: I'd say a solid seven point five. The games are

132
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: spaced out costley throughout the course of the afternoon, thankfully

133
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: for us. Maybe I'm being selfish. It is not a

134
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: situation where you're going to be slammed with like eight

135
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: awesome games to watch at night, or I should say

136
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 1: eight mega consequential games to watch simultaneously at night. They're

137
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: spaced out well, well, there are good games in all

138
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: of the time windows. We're going to do our part

139
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: over the next hour or so to talk you through

140
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: all that and much much more as you are watching

141
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: on Saturday. Please do not forget to give us a

142

144
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: those up. We put those together as part of a

145
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: little segment that we'll play at midnight Easter and four

146
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,800

Speaker 1: on YouTube. We got so many calls a week ago

148
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,679
Speaker 1: that our guy Shay put together a whole other bonus

149
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: version of the reverbs. A second addendum, if you will, Wow,

Speaker 1: Your calls are always something that brings us an immense

153
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: sense of joy. Why don't we start at high noon

00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: since the last time I sent you the document, so

156
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: pay close attention, my friend. Notre Dame minus twelve and

157
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: one half points squaring off against Navy. They are playing

158
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: this game in MetLife Stadium over in North Jersey. Yes,

159
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: my guess, like most of these Notre Dame Navy games,

160
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: is that it's basically a home game for Notre Dame.

161
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: Notre Dame just has a much larger base of people

162
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: that are interested. I would add that just fun fact

163
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,679
Speaker 1: that may only interest me and Tom Hammond. The rivalry

164
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: started back in nineteen twenty seven. Notre Dame obviously has

165
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: a very healthy lead in this series. But interesting factoid,

166
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: the game has never actually been played at Navy's home stadium,

167
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 1: never in Annapolis, never in Annapolis at Navy Marine Corps

168
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: Memorial Stadium. They have always moved it to other venues.

169
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: So weirdly, Navy has never actually had a home game here, Okay, never.

170
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 1: It must be worth their financial while I'm certain it is. Yeah,

171
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if Navy's going to be a popular

172
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: pick against the spread. They will be a popular rooting

173
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: interest for the college football public, because you know how

174
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: it is. If you're not with Notre Dame, you're certainly

175
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 1: against them. This is a very, very interesting match. Davy

176
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: is undefeated going into this one. We have talked about

177
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: the midshipman now for a couple of weeks running not

178
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: just how they stand within that playoff conversation. Yes they're

179
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 1: part of that conversation, but I think more practically speaking,

180
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: where they stand in the American Conference race right now,

181
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: particularly their collision course with Army, as it seems those

182
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: are the two top teams to beat in their conference. This, though,

183
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: is kind of like a whole other ballwax going against

184
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. So I've got many thoughts on this game.

185
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: I'm curious to get yours. Were you at Notre Dame

186
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: versus Navy. They're favored by twelve and a.

187
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 3: Half, so Notre Dame should smother them. Navy's schedule is

188
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: not particularly impressive, to be but Navy's performance is against

189
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 3: this schedule. It's the old like is it the schedule?

190
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 3: But if Navy's actually legitimately good, very good, excellent, pretty good, whatever,

191
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 3: that's how they should have performed against this schedule. And

192
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 3: while they've performed in this way, they've played essentially a

193
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 3: team this year in Memphis. Beat them, win your games.

194
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 3: It was a shootout fifty two to forty four. If

195
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 3: memory serves, what might Notre Dame be able to do

196
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 3: to this Navy defense. Navy's offense is performing like a

197
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 3: great team should against these defenses, but their defense hasn't

198
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 3: necessarily stepped up to the plate baseball.

199
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,479
Speaker 1: Term, go Dodgers.

200
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 3: I have Notre Dame big here, and I think this

201
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 3: is a really nice spot for Riley Leonard and this

202
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 3: Notre Dame offense to generate pop as a proof of

203
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 3: concept for the back half of this schedule. And what

204
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 3: did I write down here? Thirty eight to thirteen, so

205
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 3: I have them covering. I think Navy is a good story.

206
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: I think Navy is a good football team.

207
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,439
Speaker 3: They played last year to open up the season in

208
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 3: Ireland forty two to three. Things have changed, personnel has changed,

209
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 3: different season, different time. You're asking Navy in this instance

210
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 3: to be how many points better against Notre Dame to

211
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 3: cover this spread? Twenty seven points or something like that.

212
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 3: I don't see Notre Dame and Navy meeting in that spot.

213
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 3: So once again, thirty eight to thirteen.

214
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: Notre Dame.

215
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 3: Their run defense should be good. Navy is not going

216
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: to be a surprise given their record, given their success

217
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 3: this year, Notre Dame should be taking them seriously. Marcus

218
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 3: Freeman doesn't have the best track record of never playing

219
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 3: down to an opponent.

220
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: This is true, This is very true.

221
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 3: But I believe Navy has Notre Dame's full attention.

222
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: Notre Dame thirty eight thirteen. Yeah, I mean I like

223
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: Navy as a team, so do I. I think I

224
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: like him better as a story. And that's where for

225
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: our purposes here the rubber meets the road. Yeah, because

226
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: this looks like a very obvious mismatch, and the mismatch

227
00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: is the Navy pass defense against really any reliable passing offense. Now,

228
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: take a step back. Can we say that Notre Dame

229
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: has a reasonable passing offense so far? The answer is

230
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: probably just maybe. But I do think it's getting better.

231
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: And I think this. I don't think they do.

232
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 3: I think they have an average passing offense relative to

233
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 3: a decent opponent.

234
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think this is an opportunity though, for them

235
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 1: to take a step forward. Okay, if I were Notre Dame,

236
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: I'd go four wide. I'd motion Jeremiah Love out of

237
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: the backfield. I'd make Navy try to cover everyone, because

238
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 1: I don't think they can right. I'll tell you right now,

239
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: they're not going to do that. They aren't. They're not

240
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: paying me, they're paying Mike Denbrock, and they're going to

241
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: do something that I think looks a lot more like

242
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: they are almost trying to out Navy Navy than any

243
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,679
Speaker 1: sort of oop dupe. They are going to line up,

244
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: They're going to try to beat Navy's brains in with

245
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: the rush. They're going to try to soften up the

246
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 1: defense before airing it out. I think we'll see. I

247
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: hope we'll see more of Mitchell Evans, their start tight end,

248
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: getting him more involved than the offense. We saw that

249
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: a little bit last week, which was encouraging. I hope

250
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 1: we see some deep shots. That's really where I'm focused

251
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: in on this game. I want to see what Notre does,

252
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: what Notre Dame does through the pass, because truly that

253
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: should be where the mismatch is. I do think they

254
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: could line up and run it if they really want to.

255
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: I am not that concerned about this game, Okay, like Navy,

256
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: I really do. I'm rooting for them to play against Army.

257
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: I'm rooting for them to get into the playoff. I'm

258
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 1: not rooting actively against Navy, Right, I just think this

259
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,839
Speaker 1: is a bad match. Line would be a bad match.

260
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: It should be a bad match.

261
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 3: Right, I think the line I was expecting fifteen sixteen seventeen,

262
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 3: so FI points those I the line feels low, And

263
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 3: maybe the line feels low because maybe Navy can generate

264
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 3: some first downs and slow the game down and limit possessions.

265
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 3: Obviously that's going to be their tactic going into this game, right,

266
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 3: That's what all of the Service academies try to do

267
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 3: and sometimes succeed in doing against more talented, bigger, stronger,

268
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: faster teams. Like let's turn this into what do you

269
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 3: call it a rock fight?

270
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: Ty, turn into a rock fight? Now? Interest only on

271
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: the Navy front, they aren't playing as slowly this year

272
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: as they did a year ago. True, And if you

273
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: go back and listen to you're not going to go

274
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: back at this point listen to any of the preview

275
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: content that we did in a show. Listen to the

276
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: Week four preview, Right, you're not going to go back

277
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: and listen to it. You're just gonna have to take

278
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: my word for it. Yeah, we talked about this. We

279
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: talked about Navy was making some changes to its offense,

280
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: to not get away from the option, but to incorporate

281
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: some different versions of it into what they're doing. And

282
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: one thing that they actually have done is play a

283
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: little bit quicker. That's not to say they can't slow

284
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: it back down. I think they still have that in

285
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: their in their bag here, and it would behoove them,

286
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 1: I think at a matchup like this to try and

287
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: slow this game down, especially if they can get some traction.

288
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,359
Speaker 1: I just I don't know where that traction comes from.

289
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: They have played the current This is SP plus one

290
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: twenty five thirty four Memphis ninety one, one hundred and

291
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: thirty and one hundred and ninth opponent SP plus on offense. Now,

292
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: it's just a it's.

293
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 3: A tough ask to be prepared for. Basically, what you

294
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 3: want is you want Notre Dame to be at this

295
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 3: point uncharacteristically off on offense. And if Notre Dame is

296
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 3: merely above average, merely decent, merely pretty good, they should

297
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 3: cover this game going away.

298
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: You said thirty eight thirteen, I've got thirty one to thirteen, okay.

299
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: And I think the irony of this matchup is despite

300
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: the fact that everyone at the water cooler on Monday,

301
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: will again bemoan the fact that Notre Dame is playing

302
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: a service academy. This is one of those games that'll

303
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: actually end up looking pretty good on the resume.

304
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 3: It will, and that's because the rest of their resume

305
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 3: that they scheduled isn't a special.

306
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: Well, that might be true, but Navy's a bowl team.

307
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: This is just luck for Navy's a bowl team. Maybe

308
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: could be a conference champion. Sure, say what you will

309
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: thirty one thirteen for me, I think we agree. Moving

310
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: on also at noon a Big ten network. This is

311
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: a nice game for the Big ten network. Actually, this

312
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: is a Yogi guy game is Yeah? Are you gonna

313
00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: send Guy any kind of pizza rex for Bloomington?

314
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 3: I gave him the res in New York when he

315
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 3: was doing Rutgers. Okay, UCLA last week. I don't have pete.

316
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 3: If look, if anybody's listening, send Guy Haberman via Twitter

317
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 3: or whatever, any sort of pizza our food recks.

318
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: But don't tell him that we sent you. Don't tell

319
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: this inundate him just inundata with Bloomington restaurants suggestions. Great

320
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: Guy Haberman on Twitter. We can figure out his handle later. Yes,

321
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: and you just did Yogi's podcast. Actually I did, why

322
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: option take a listen, go check that out. We love Yogi.

323
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: Washington versus Indiana Indiana favored by six and a half points.

324
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: Indiana is gonna be without Curtis Rourke. He is nursing

325
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: a thumb injury from last week's game against Nebraska. He

326
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: had a procedure on that thumb, and it seems as

327
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: though he may be ready to go next weekend against

328
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: Michigan State. But for now, this Saturday, it's going to

329
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: be our guy, Raven Tavan Jackson, Dan Raven Tagent Raven

330
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: Tavan there you go, is back in our lives, in

331
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: charge of the operation. And I wonder as you look

332
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: this over if you feel similarly that even given the

333
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: fact that it's a backup in for Indiana, it is

334
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: still kind of a decent matchup for them. I still

335
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: kind of like the matchup, separate from the fact that

336
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 1: they're going to be without Curtis Rourke and the latest

337
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 1: of the Rourke family quarterback dynasty.

338
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, it basically it's what is the Tavin Jackson tax?

339
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 3: If any, because Indiana has been scoring forty plus every

340
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 3: week since Week one, where they scored merely thirty one.

341
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 3: And on the flip side, Washington isn't a team that

342
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 3: scores thirty, right, Washington is a good team that isn't

343
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 3: coached all that well in big spots. They lose winnable games,

344
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 3: they lose winnable moments. Maybe not a good team. Maybe

345
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 3: they're a decent team. Maybe they're a pretty good team.

346
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 3: However you want to describe Washington because they do a

347
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 3: number of things well. I think they tackle well, They've

348
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 3: got really good I like their skill talent, you know,

349
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 3: even replacing as much as they have Denzel Boston, Jonah Coleman,

350
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 3: these guys are good, decent. I think they're totally decent

351
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 3: and honestly, all things considered, with replacing the number of

352
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 3: starters and the number of players that they had to replace,

353
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 3: I agree.

354
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: I think it's a decent team and I think that

355
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: was a real challenge. They've done a pretty good job

356
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:14,360
Speaker 1: with it, all things considered.

357
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 3: But they sort of also fall into that like Hugh

358
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 3: Freeze losing as a skill thing with Jedfish in big

359
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 3: moments that they abandoned the run when they shouldn't be that.

360
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 3: Their red zone play calling has been horrendous at times,

361
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 3: so Indiana is that winning is a skill. It's the

362
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 3: Kurt Signetti winning is a skill program that they just

363
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: stack little things and that ends up resulting in them

364
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 3: winning games forty five to thirteen or whatever. So to me,

365
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 3: it's okay. How much does Tavin Jackson's experience last year matter?

366
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 3: Probably little to very little. I don't know he had

367
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 3: two touchdowns to five picks last year when he was,

368
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 3: you know, splitting time a little bit with Brendan Sorosby

369
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 3: for the Hoosiers last year. I don't think it matters

370
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 3: a ton. He was in last week to get into

371
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 3: a little bit of a rhythm against Nebraska and Curtis

372
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 3: Rourke went down. He seemed fine, ran the ball a

373
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 3: little bit, had a bunch of yards after the catch

374
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 3: that inflated his stats perhaps a little bit.

375
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: I think he should be good.

376
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 3: This is a system, this is a team with talent

377
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 3: around him that should protect him. I don't think he's

378
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 3: gonna make horrific mistakes. I think he's had time in

379
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 3: the system to learn. The defense has obviously made plays

380
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 3: all season long. I don't think they're scoring forty with

381
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 3: Tavin Jackson. I think Washington's defense is decent. Enough even

382
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 3: on the road. I have this at thirty four to

383
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 3: twenty one Indiana.

384
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: Wow, I have.

385
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 3: This closer than recent Indiana results. Maybe a little bit

386
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 3: of a letdown, blowing Nebraska out on Big Fox last week,

387
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,640
Speaker 3: Big Noon game last week.

388
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: Big Fox.

389
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 3: Well, Big Fox as opposed to Big Fox Fox, Big

390
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 3: Fox Network TV. Sure Ty you scoff you are? You

391
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 3: are making this a scoff Saturday? How often is Indiana

392
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:51,360
Speaker 3: on network television?

393
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: No? Look, this has been speaking of good stories. Yeah,

394
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: the Indiana story is kind of second to none this season.

395
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: Despite the fact that we've got Army and Navy undefeated

396
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: and kind of you know, ride and high. This season,

397
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: Indiana Man, Indiana has been the thing that everyone wants

398
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 1: to know about.

399
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, there is a Jedfish I call the Montlake Magician

400
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 3: because poof, he turned sevens into threes in the red zone.

401
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 1: Tie. Yeah. So that's the.

402
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 3: Difference to me that I think Indiana both in year

403
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,360
Speaker 3: one coaches, both with the year one coaches, I think

404
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 3: they're just further along thirty four to twenty one.

405
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: Who hoo hoosiers. The reason I think it's a good

406
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: matchup is because the tendencies lineup really well. For Indiana here,

407
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 1: and my hunch is that the game plan is going

408
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: to be a bit telegraphed, but high level. Indiana is

409
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: a pretty good rushing team. We focus a lot on

410
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 1: the pass, but pretty good rushing team. Definitely really good

411
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: rushing team for Justice Allison. From an efficiency standpoint, they're

412
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: very very good at that. Washington's just got allows you

413
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: rushing defense, and what I would expect in this game

414
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: is for Washington to try and force Ravenavin to beat

415
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: him through the air, right, stack the box, you know

416
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: the runs coming, try to get him to throw the

417
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: ball and make a mistake. The interesting thing is that

418
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: he can also do it with his legs, which is

419
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: not really part of Curtis Rourke's game. You know, he's

420
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: more of a traditional pocket passer. There is an opportunity

421
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: here for Kurt Signetti to use those legs to his advantage.

422
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: Move the pocket, create some easy throws, slip a tight

423
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: end right, get him into the flats, or some quick,

424
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: easy stuff to the outside to build up some momentum

425
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: and confidence. I think Washington's good enough to challenge Indiana

426
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: in a new way. Like Washington definitely as compared to

427
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: some of the other teams that have been on the

428
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 1: schedule offers a better, more balanced offense, certainly the Nebraska

429
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,439
Speaker 1: a week ago. I just think Kurt Signetti is a

430
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 1: better coach. I think he's a better coach. I think

431
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: he's found the picks he doest and I also think

432
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: in this circumstance where he's going to be playing a backup,

433
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: this is something that he's been very good at over

434
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: the course of his career, and that is not trying

435
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: to adapt everybody into the same system. That is adapting

436
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: the system to the personnel. So when you've got a

437
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 1: backup who comes in who does have a little bit

438
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: of a different skill set, yeah, maybe it's a bit

439
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: of an adjustment period to get him on page with

440
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 1: the rest of the offense. But also maybe it provides

441
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 1: something that Washington isn't going to see on tape. I

442
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: got him at thirty to twenty one, thirty eight, twenty one,

443
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: thirty to twenty one, covering the six and a half

444
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:29,959
Speaker 1: point spread.

445
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 3: Washington has played kind of a half schedule. By the way,

446
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 3: they really haven't faced good offenses. The one good offense

447
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 3: they faced in Washington State they lost too. They didn't

448
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 3: allow a ton of points, and so their defensive stats

449
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 3: might be a little bit inflated when you were talking

450
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 3: about needing to get Tavin Jackson sort of behind the

451
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 3: sticks forth a bunch of third and eights, thirty nine

452
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 3: third and elevens. Very few, if any teams are allowing

453
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 3: more third and ones and third and twos than Washington.

454
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 3: They're one hundred and thirtieth right now enforcing third downs

455
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 3: that require one or two yards, and so that to

456
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 3: me is the big issue for Washington. Give me a

457
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 3: third and eight, give me a third and nine, then

458
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 3: we'll talk. But they are allowing way too many, like

459
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 3: oh yeah, let's just go for it on fourth down

460
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 3: as well, because it's third and one and we're midfield ish.

461
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 3: Those moments are coming too often for the Washington defense.

462
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, if you're a Tavan Jackson believer,

463
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 3: this is a no brainer. If you are a Tavan

464
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 3: Jackson skeptic in this moment comes a little more difficult.

465
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 3: But Washington just doesn't score. They don't they don't score.

466
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: And I also think it's more than just a quarterback.

467
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: Curtis Rourke is at a great season and hurt having

468
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: him not in the lineup. Certainly hurts. Yeah, but it's

469
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 1: more than just that. I agree. They have run the

470
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: ball extraordinarily well. They have played great defense. This has

471
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: not just been one position group. This has been the

472
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: whole ship being raised by the Signetti tide. I don't know.

473
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: Weird construction, we find Indiana, we agree, we agree.

474
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 3: Indiana has covered in eighty five percent of the games

475
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,959
Speaker 3: this year. So even Vegas is underestimating the Hoosiers this season.

476
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 1: Three point thirty on CBS, it is Illinois versus your organize. Yes.

477
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: When I made the dock, it was minus twenty five.

478
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: Oregon is now down to minus twenty one. And I

479
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 1: think this is reflective of something I was feeling, which is, yeah,

480
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,239
Speaker 1: Illinois is not gonna win this game, but can they

481
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 1: make it ugly enough to cover twenty five points? I

482
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: was gonna go Illinois, yeah, and then I saw the line.

483
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: Then I saw the line. Now I'm on Oregon. Here,

484
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: I am on Oregon because Oregon is the better team.

485
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,439
Speaker 1: They should be able to run. I think they can

486
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 1: score on Illinois for sure. The only question I have

487
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,199
Speaker 1: in this game is not one of who's winning. It

488
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: is whether Illinois can play ugly? Can they play ugly?

489
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: Enough to keep it within this number, and with how

490
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: good the Oregon defense has been, I don't see a

491
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 1: mid offense like Illinois stepping up using the mid like

492
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: a youth tie. What can I s? I don't see

493
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: Illinois stepping up to the plate here baseball term go Yankees, yeah,

494
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: and finding a way to cover that twenty one point spread.

495
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: So I'm on to orgon minus the number.

496
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 3: Okay, so two things at play here to me, and

497
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 3: typically teams that have the ability to muddy up a

498
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 3: game are able to do two things, and that is

499
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 3: get off the field on defense. Illinois doesn't and run

500
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 3: the ball Illinois can't. So basically, what you need to

501
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 3: sort of envision if you like Illinois to, I don't know,

502
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 3: win this game, keep it close, keep it kind of close,

503
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 3: slow it down with Illinois plays slowly. And Luke Altmeyer

504
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 3: is good. He is full on good. So what you

505
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 3: need is a Luke Altmeyer Wally Zerbiak performance where he's

506
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 3: able to do it all despite having a not great

507
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 3: offensive line. I actually don't think his running backs are bad.

508
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 3: I like both Caden Vegan and Josh McCray. I think

509
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 3: they're talented. I just don't think the line opens up lanes. No,

510
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: I just don't think this is a team built to

511
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 3: push a team around. And so the path for Illinois

512
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 3: to cover this game with how Oregon is currently playing

513
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 3: is slow pace.

514
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: Oregon making a.

515
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 3: Couple of mistakes on offense, maybe in the red zone

516
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 3: like they've done this year, and Luke Altmeyer on third

517
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 3: and eight just being a pest and scrambling for a

518
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 3: third down or again. I like the receivers like Zacari

519
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 3: Franklin and Pat Bryant. I think this is going to

520
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 3: be a very difficult ask for them this week. But

521
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 3: I think if he can scramble and pick up some

522
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 3: first downs here and there, if that, maybe they get

523
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 3: a turnover in a short field and keep a couple

524
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 3: of field goals or put it whatever. But you're asking

525
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 3: for a lot of checkboxes here. I think with the

526
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 3: way Oregon is playing, they should be able to run

527
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 3: straight at Illinois. They should be able to pop it

528
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 3: over Illinois. Jack Tuttle was going downfield against Illinois. I

529
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 3: think Illinois is pretty good. I think Oregon's better. I

530
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 3: think Oregon is not looking past Illinois, even if I

531
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 3: think Illinois is perhaps a little bit overrated. They're in

532
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 3: the top twenty. Right, yep, they'll have Oregon's attention. Oregon

533
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 3: has who next week Michigan.

534
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem.

535
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 3: To be as huge a matchup as it might have

536
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 3: seemed preseason that maybe it's a look ahead spot for Oregon.

537
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 3: So right now on the legal pad, I'm holding up

538
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 3: for all the viewers watching live on Spider TV.

539
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: There it is. I have Oregon.

540
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 3: Thirty eight fourteen, So winning by twenty four would not

541
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 3: have covered that initial line, but twenty one points. They've

542
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 3: allowed so little defensively against Ohio State. They but like

543
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 3: non Ohio State in the like UCLA did nothing, Michigan

544
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 3: State did nothing. Obviously, Purdue did nothing. Oregon State did

545
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 3: nothing in that second half. This is a team clamping down,

546
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 3: and I just think it's going to be very difficult. CBS,

547
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 3: is there your ex Jenny Dell? Is that like there's

548
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 3: just so much happening in oddsen I'm gonna go Oregon

549
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,120
Speaker 3: here by nearly twenty five.

550
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: I wrote down thirty eight to thirteen. There it is,

551
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: which would have been right on that twenty five.

552
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 3: That's what I had for Notre Dame Navy. I was

553
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 3: our teams are cycling in the same way I thirty

554
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 3: eight thirteen. I'm on Oregon here. I mean, you watch

555
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 3: them against the one legitimately good team they've played, Illinois.

556
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 3: I did scored on a touchdown on the road, a.

557
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: Touchdown, lost twenty one to seven, And I stand by

558
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 1: what I said. I don't think the game was that close, Okay.

559
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: I think the final score makes it seem closer than

560
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 1: it was because there really was no hope that Illinois

561
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: was going to come back and win. That game didn't

562
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 1: feel that way to me.

563
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't think there was hope from the offense.

564
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 3: But I mean, if you hold Penn State to fourteen

565
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 3: points for fifty eight minutes or something, that they must

566
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 3: have it just didn't.

567
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: It just didn't feel. It didn't feel close to me. Okay,

568
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: it did fair enough. Three thirty ABC, it's missoo, it's Alabama.

569
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: It is a fourteen point spread. I'm gonna steal a

570
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: line from you, Dan, What has Alabama done to earn

571
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: a fourteen What I was gonna say, we can raise

572
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: the register. What has Alabama done to earn this in

573
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: your estimation? Unclear?

574
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 3: Unclear to me because while I like a lot of

575
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 3: their players on both sides of the ball, and they

576
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 3: are a little bit beat up in that secondary. I'm

577
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 3: not sure what they've done. Alabama is more of an

578
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 3: in theory elite team than anything on paper. Look here's

579
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 3: what they've done. They beat Georgia. Okay, that is not nothing,

580
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 3: but really in SEC play and tell me if I'm

581
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 3: incorrect here ty as I list off what Alabama's done

582
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 3: in the SEC under Kaylen Debor with some time to prepare,

583
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 3: looked good and nearly choked away the Georgia game in

584
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 3: historic fashion, crash correct a, lost at Vanderbilt, being pushed

585
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 3: around in the process, tried everything they could do to

586
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 3: lose to South Carolina and got lucky to come out

587
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 3: with a win against South Carolina at home by two

588
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 3: points and lose to Tennis with kind of an inept

589
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 3: offensive performance. That's what they've done this year in the SEC.

590
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 3: I'm not saying Alabama can't grow into something interesting this year,

591
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 3: next year, the year after whatever they're gonna recruit, well,

592
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 3: there's gonna be crazy talent. Tuscaloosa. I think Miszoo's a

593
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 3: solid team. They're saddled with twenty twenty three in a

594
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 3: way that's both fair and unfair as we evaluate who

595
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,719
Speaker 3: Miszoo is. I'm still into them. I'm still in se

596
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 3: and you're asking me to hold it within how many points?

597
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: Fourteen?

598
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna take those points happily. I think Miszoo

599
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 3: can do enough on defense against an Alabama offense that

600
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 3: is still searching for an identity beyond. Hopefully Ryan Williams

601
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 3: can do something for us. Hopefully Jalen Monroe can buy

602
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 3: enough time and pick up and you know this third

603
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 3: and eight with his legs. I just don't see Alabama

604
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 3: having a cogent, cohesive vision on offense in this moment.

605
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 3: Whereas I don't love that Miszoo isn't bombing it downfield

606
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 3: all the time. There's a lot I don't love about Miszoo.

607
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 3: I just I think they're good enough to keep it

608
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 3: relatively close against a flawed Alabama team.

609
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: You ever watched twenty four? Remember that old show? I

610
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: have seen twenty four? Yeah? I was big into twenty four. Yeah,

611
00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: And there was a moment in there. I don't know

612
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: how many seasons they did, nine seasons, ten seasons. It

613
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: felt like it went on forever. There was a moment

614
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 1: when he got to like season five when you tune

615
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: in and you were excited. I used to go over

616
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: to a friend's house to watch every Tuesday or whenever

617
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: it was on Monday. Yeah, and it was like a

618
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: big deal, we're really into it. I think it was Mondays. Yeah.

619
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: And there was a moment where the show just started

620
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: feeling different, started feeling different, and he started asking questions

621
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: like how many times can they do this plot? Had

622
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: Jack Bauer never gone to the bathroom in seven previous seasons?

623
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 1: It feels how do they have a mole? Still? Just

624
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: weird questions that start popping up.

625
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 3: How was he driving from Burbank to Valencia in nine minutes?

626
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,479
Speaker 1: Yeah? Stuff like that, just you know, because the plot

627
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: felt a little weaker, you start asking questions that you

628
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: did not previously have.

629
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 3: Do you remember the college football connective tissue with twenty four?

630
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: I believe Come on, Ty, I don't think you're thinking

631
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 1: of twenty four? Aren't you thinking of Better Call Saul? No?

632
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of twenty four because Better Call Saul was Nebraska?

633
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: What is twenty four? I think? Spoiler alert. Lynn McGill

634
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: from twenty four played by Sean Aston Rudy, Oh right, right, right,

635
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 1: right right, thank you. Yeah, of course. My point here

636
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: is I have been thinking about that a lot with

637
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 1: respect Alabama. Yeah, just feels a little different, feels a

638
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: little there's no Saban Okay, the team just feels different.

639
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: And it's taken a while for that to register with

640
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,560
Speaker 1: a lot of us who cover this, who watch every weekend.

641
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: It's just it's not the same. I'm on Mazoo plus

642
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: the points here, I'm on Miszoo. With the way they

643
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: won last week, maybe they're building some momentum coming into

644
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: this one. A letdown spot too for Obama. Letdown spot

645
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: the offense for Bama's sort of telegraphed right it's Jalen

646
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: Milroe and Ryan Williams are bust. The defense is getting

647
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: pushed around a little bit more than you might expect.

648
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: I am not crazy about Mazou, don't get me wrong,

649
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 1: but Bama's had some trouble really ever since that first

650
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: half of the Georgia game, which was now three and

651
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: a half games ago. Dan Right, So what I'm looking

652
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: to see here is can Mazoo run a similar game

653
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 1: plan to what we saw last week from Tennessee? Can

654
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 1: they have some success on the ground, Can they stick

655
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 1: with it long enough so that it opens up playmakers

656
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: down the field. I don't think Brady Cook's going for

657
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: two point fifty, but I still like their receivers. I

658
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: really like the OISA, really like Luther Burden. I am

659
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: dying to see some big plays out of this long

660
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 1: night Noel too. Yeah. I think BAMA wins thirty three

661
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 1: to twenty seven. I think it's a good game. I

662
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: like the fact that they're at home, but fourteen is

663
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: a bridge too far from me. Man, I'm going Miszoo

664
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: plus that number.

665
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 3: I have twenty seven to twenty three BAMA four point win.

666
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 3: And the counterpoint with Maszoo is they've played I believe

667
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 3: one road SEC game. Yeah, played against a decent two

668
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: very good team somewhere. Whatever you feel about Texas, ay,

669
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 3: and I'm lost by thirty one yep.

670
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:19,919
Speaker 1: Correct.

671
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 3: They found a way to dig out of that Auburn game.

672
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 3: It was a weird game for Auburn, a weird game

673
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 3: for Maszoo. Injuries whatever. Brady Cook went to the hospital

674
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:28,359
Speaker 3: and came back.

675
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: Is that what you said, went to the hospital and

676
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: came back in the truck of a GA great said

677
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: he got some got some weird stares as he was

678
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: doing the trunk of a GA, not the trunk he

679
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 1: was in a truck.

680
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 3: They were fortunate to play elite loser Auburn. I shouldn't

681
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 3: say elite loser, ob elite loser Hugh Freeze.

682
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: So that's nice.

683
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 3: But that's what they've needed thus far in SEC play too,

684
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 3: to show us that they're capable of beating at least

685
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 3: a pretty good Alabama team on the road. I don't

686
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 3: think they've shown us enough to me for me to

687
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 3: believe in them winning out right. But yeah, I think

688
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 3: there's just too much proven pop with Alabama twenty seven

689
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 3: twenty three.

690
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 1: I think we have agreed on every game so far.

691
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: That's very discouraging. Seven point thirty NBC. It is my

692
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 1: Penn state in any Lions minus six and a half

693
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: on the road at Wisconsin. If you have listened to

694
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: this show, you may recall me flagging Wisconsin on one

695
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: of our last two shows. I think as a team

696
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 1: that's been building momentum over the last couple of weeks, yeah,

697
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: they have looked really good for like three weeks running now.

698
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 3: Dan played Northampton High School, They've played Calabasas High School.

699
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, continue they have played Perdue, Rutgers, and Northwestern. They

700
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:52,600
Speaker 1: also played a good half against USC But okay, Perdue, Rutgers, Northwestern, Okay,

701
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,439
Speaker 1: take that for what it is. I do think Penn

702
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: State's a different animal here. I do think Penn State's

703
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 1: got the advantage. I think getting them at home, getting

704
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,280
Speaker 1: Wisconsin at home at night a week before the Ohio

705
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: State game is something that we need to keep in

706
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 1: mind here when we talk through this. Yeah, maybe a

707
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: little bit of look ahead potential. But I like the

708
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: matchup for Penn State, as do I. I like the

709
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: situation sort of for Wisconsin, but the matchup for Penn

710
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: State because when you look at what Wisconsin has been

711
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: so far, they are a definitive pickleball team. Yes, they're

712
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 1: a pickleball team, one hundred and twenty, first in the nation.

713
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: And if you like pickleball, Sorry, we don't mean that

714
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: in a nice way. No, we don't. This is a pejorative.

715
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: Less than five percent of Wisconsin's plays go for twenty

716
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: or more yards. Okay, you're not going to beat Penn

717
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: State putting your offense in a box like that. No,

718
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 1: it's not going to beat Penn State's defense. Also, interestingly,

719
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 1: Wisconsin has at least one turnover in every game this season.

720
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: They have at least two turnovers each of their last

721
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: five games. Yeah, you put your offense in a box,

722
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: you make a killer mistake, You're not going to be

723
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: Penn State that way. You're not. Penn State is not

724
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: a perfect team. We will see how they stack up

725
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 1: against the nation's best next week when Ohio State comes

726
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: to town. They're going to win this game twenty eight

727
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: to thirteen.

728
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 3: I have twenty seven to seventeen Penn State covering, and

729
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 3: I just don't know what to think of Wisconsin against

730
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 3: a decent team. You talk about their I mean, we've

731
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 3: both said this their quality first half against USC and

732
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 3: the more we say that about anybody, it feels like

733
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,320
Speaker 3: when your mom tells you, hey, I know your cousin

734
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:41,840
Speaker 3: Brian doesn't look at now, but he was.

735
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 1: Very good looking when he was twenty three. She was

736
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 1: like the prom queen.

737
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 3: I know it doesn't seem that way now, where you're like,

738
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 3: I don't know how to interpret this, but it's not

739
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 3: really relevant in the time we're speaking. Wisconsin's fine. I

740
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 3: think Wisconsin is slowly growing. It's not easy to grow

741
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 3: against Penn State this year's version of Penn State. If

742
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,720
Speaker 3: your offense is looking for a rhythm against good teams,

743
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 3: Penn State is not necessarily the good team that has

744
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 3: a defense that you can grow against, if that's English

745
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 3: at all. So I don't trust Wisconsin upfront on offense

746
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 3: to be able to push Penn State around. I don't

747
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 3: trust Wisconsin, as you mentioned, generating those bigger plays, which look,

748
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,359
Speaker 3: when Penn State was on the ropes against USC, that's

749
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 3: a team who was creative enough, had the offensive speed

750
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,800
Speaker 3: to run an end around well or to go downfield

751
00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 3: a little bit with Miller Moss and those receivers. As

752
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 3: bad as USC's offensive line is, they have that team speed,

753
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 3: They have that ceiling where they can inflict some damage.

754
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 3: I just don't think Wisconsin's built in that way. I

755
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 3: don't love Penn State's lack of resources at consistent receiving

756
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 3: beyond Tyler Warren. I just don't think Wisconsin's the team

757
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 3: to make them pay for that sort of disappearing act

758
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,280
Speaker 3: in the wide receiver room. So twenty seven to seventeen

759
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 3: Penn State difficult. James Franklin not good off of buys

760
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 3: randomly in his history at Penn State, So that worries

761
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 3: me a little bit, you know, getting blown out by Michigan,

762
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 3: losing to Minnesota games like that. I just I don't

763
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,440
Speaker 3: see a way for Pen for Wisconsin, excuse me, to

764
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 3: get to thirty points, which is where I think that's

765
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 3: the general zone that Wisconsin would need to get there

766
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 3: to sort of really threaten Penn State. So yeah, yeah,

767
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 3: you like them.

768
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: You like the situation, but you don't like the matchup.

769
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 1: Is what I kept score twenty three against Northwestern last week,

770
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: I believe, yep, twenty three to three. Yeah, let's close

771
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 1: out the big games at the top of the show

772
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: with a seven point thirty matchup on ABC. What do

773
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: you say the temperature is going to be at this one.

774
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,760
Speaker 3: Throughound ninety degrees at kickoff, somewhere of an eighty eight ninety.

775
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 3: By the way, it's looking beautiful across the country in

776
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 3: terms of weather anywhere between like fifties and sunny and seventies,

777
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 3: eighties and sonny like really nice football day. I didn't

778
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 3: point it out while we were previewing it. There is

779
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 3: there is a chance, a decent chance of rain.

780
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 1: In the Oregon Illinois game.

781
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 3: So again, if you're looking for a reason why that

782
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 3: game could sort of slow to a halt, that is,

783
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 3: or could be a factor.

784
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 1: LSU on the road in Kyle Field against Texas A

785
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: and M minus two and a half in favor of

786
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 1: the Aggies playing at home. Let me give the verballerhood

787
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:31,879
Speaker 1: a little bit of brutal honesty, if I can trick

788
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: anee here for a second. I have no idea who

789
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: to pick in this game. Okay. I went back and

790
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: forth a half a dozen times. On the Tuesday episode

791
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 1: of last week, I called out my revised playoff projections,

792
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 1: and I said, A and M is going to win

793
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: this game. They're going to find a way to get

794
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,480
Speaker 1: into the playoff. But now I've been rewatching some of

795
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: these LSU games and I'm just silently staring at my spreadsheets,

796
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 1: and I'm starting to think they're legitimately way better than

797
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: I thought. LSU is tough. Continue. I'm starting to kind

798
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,760
Speaker 1: of come around and revise my thinking a bit on LSU.

799
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 1: I think this is a three point game one way

800
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,839
Speaker 1: or the other, regardless of who you like. I think

801
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 1: this is going to be a close game. Okay. There

802
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: are a couple things that I think worked to a

803
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 1: and m's advantage first off, at home at night Kyle Field.

804
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: That's as big an advantage as you're going to get

805
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: in college football.

806
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 3: According to College Football twenty five, the number one home

807
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 3: field advantage in the sport.

808
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,959
Speaker 1: I believe it, Okay. LSU also one of the most

809
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 1: penalized offensive lines in the country. It's a loud game

810
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: like this where you start to see stuff like that

811
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 1: become that's also true, more of a factor. Third and

812
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,239
Speaker 1: seven's become third and twelve. Yeah. The second thing is

813
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: part of LSU's resurgent defense, and it is a resurgent

814
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 1: defense has been in its ability to create havoc plays,

815
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 1: especially with their front seven. It's been statistically speaking, kind

816
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: of an incredible turnaround. A and M doesn't allow those plays.

817
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: They just don't allow defenses to put that in a

818
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: box like that. If this were golf, we'd call it

819
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 1: bogie avoidance, right. They've just not been prone to those

820
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: big game changing plays by opposing defenses. Usually that points

821
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: to a team being pretty well coached. And then the

822
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 1: third thing, which kind of goes hand in hand with

823
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: that havoc point, is that LSU does give up a

824
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: lot of big plays, especially on the ground. Maybe that's

825
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: the tradeoff, right, The trade off for creating havoc and

826
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: blitzing thirty percent of the time is that sometimes you're

827
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: going to give up a big one. I think A

828
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,959
Speaker 1: and M's ability to create a few big plays here

829
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:41,320
Speaker 1: there occasionally throughout the course of the game everywhere, Yeah,

830
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 1: I think that is the key. They've also not been

831
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 1: good at creating them, Okay, so if they can, I

832
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 1: think the opportunity is there in a matchup like this,

833
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: and in one that figures, by my estimation to be

834
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: very close within a field goal. I look at it

835
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,360
Speaker 1: and I start one where the big plays coming from.

836
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 1: Who can generate them, who allows them? I would much

837
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 1: rather be the team searching to try and find them

838
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: than the team I know gives them up, Which is

839
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: why I think I think I favor AM here. But

840
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: you could probably talk me into LSU.

841
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 3: Big Notre Dame match up here, right, Brian Kelly, Mike

842
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 3: elco Is there's a familiarity there.

843
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: There's a lot of connective tissue. Yeah, there's the.

844
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,359
Speaker 3: Connective logan digs no longer on the LSU ross Now,

845
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean A and M obviously already

846
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 3: played Notre Dame. So a lot of Notre Dame fireflies

847
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 3: in the air with this one. How about that correct?

848
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 3: LSU to me feels like a team again winning as

849
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 3: a skill. They very much developed that skill over this season.

850
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 3: You know, after losing that USC game close, you have

851
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 3: a weird back and forth against South Carolina. They pull

852
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 3: it out, weird back and forth against Ole miss pull

853
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 3: it out with some incredible throws. Late took care of

854
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 3: business against Arkansas South Alabama. I don't know what else

855
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 3: I'm missing from the LSU schedule this year. That's the

856
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 3: general sense I get that they're a well coached team.

857
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 3: Late that other than Brian Kelly slamming the table after

858
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 3: losing to USC, they've maintained their composure. LSU still feels like.

859
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,360
Speaker 3: It's a really great scene. I don't know, if you

860
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 3: watch the Sopranos tie Johnny sack head of, I think

861
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 3: the New York Family got a Maserati and didn't fully

862
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 3: know how to drive it. So as like he's pulling away,

863
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 3: he tries to make like a dramatic exit and he

864
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 3: just doesn't have control over the gears and stuff, and

865
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 3: it's just a mess that right now, the Garrett nuss Meyer.

866
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 3: With these receivers in this run game, I don't feel

867
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,359
Speaker 3: like they fully know how to drive the maserati and

868
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,400
Speaker 3: so I like Cayden Durham. I think he's a good

869
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 3: running back. They haven't figured out how to best use

870
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 3: him all of the time yet, Garrett Nusmeyer, I think

871
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,840
Speaker 3: has good receivers. They haven't been crazy successful down the

872
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:56,319
Speaker 3: field consistently yet, and I personally think they're gonna get there.

873
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 3: I also personally think doing it night in College Station

874
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 3: is probably not the week for it to happen.

875
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 1: Against a good pass defense too, mind you, it's a very.

876
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 3: Good past defense, and against an A and M defense

877
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,399
Speaker 3: that has done nothing else if not get better over

878
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,200
Speaker 3: the course of games as they.

879
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 1: Adapt to their predators. Whatever, right, David, we're over here, Okay.

880
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 3: Right, this is like they are really good, Like I

881
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 3: hate all things AI tie, but there is that like

882
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 3: machine learning quality to Texas A and M's defense.

883
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:29,879
Speaker 1: That's just like all.

884
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 2: Right, they've learned, They've adapted their smothering elko AI of course, right,

885
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 2: So I'm in on A and M here now I

886
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 2: worry about and I mentioned this in the recab episode,

887
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,399
Speaker 2: like Connor Wegman throws a very interceptible ball.

888
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 3: He makes three and a half very weird decisions every

889
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 3: game he starts. And I think he's good, but like

890
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,120
Speaker 3: there is that element to his game, So that's worrisome

891
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 3: to me. We saw LS do able to take advantage

892
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 3: of turnovers against Arkansas. I'm in on A and M situationally,

893
00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 3: I like the spot. I think they're gonna win something.

894
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 3: I have it thirty one twenty eight Aggies.

895
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 1: I got to play. They're covering. I have it thirty

896
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: one to twenty eight Aggies. Really thirty one twenty eight weird.

897
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: We have agreed from first Yeah, we have agreed on

898
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 1: our first six games, and in many cases we've had

899
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 1: the same neighborhood for our scores. From a betting standpoint, Yeah,

900
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: I think you wait for this line to hit three.

901
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: I think it'll hit three HM, and then you take LSU.

902
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 1: It looks super close to me. I'm not sure that

903
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 1: that LSU isn't the better team here, but it's just

904
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,520
Speaker 1: that home field advantage at night, I agree. See, I

905
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 1: mean I realized they went on the road and they

906
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,520
Speaker 1: beat Arkansas by twenty. It's two roads in a row, though,

907
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 1: But this Kyle Fields a different, different creature. Yeah, thirty one,

908
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 1: twenty eight. I'm with you on A and M. We

909
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: agree again. I want to be quad fathers. Let's think

910
00:46:55,520 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 1: about the heart impression of the commitment in the energy

911
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: are you willing to put into it? Now? You've recently

912
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 1: started doing pull ups, Dan, chin ups, chin ups, You're

913
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 1: not doing the quad father workout, You're doing more upper

914
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 1: body Yes, Ty, you just know I'm never going to

915
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 1: have the premiere traps in college football podcasting. It's just

916
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 1: never going to happen for me, So I do chin ups.

917
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 1: I pulled out four games here that are of interest

918
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:29,280
Speaker 1: to me. In the early block. Okay, Nebraska versus Ohio State. Okay,

919
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: big line, Ohio State favor by twenty five and a half.

920
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 1: But coming off of bye Yeah, coming off of bye interested,

921
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:38,640
Speaker 1: see what that looks like. Oklahoma Ole Miss another big line,

922
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: Ole Miss favor by twenty and a half, but both

923
00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 1: teams got some questions answer. There is Georgia Tech versus

924
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. Georgia Tech going to Blacksburg as a ten

925
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:55,040
Speaker 1: point dog. Interesting, And then there is my American special

926
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 1: high new in ESPN two. It is Tulane minus seven

927
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,799
Speaker 1: and a hal half on the road at North Texas. Dan,

928
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 1: I looked at this game for a while. I love

929
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 1: that game so much.

930
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 3: It's a really good one. This should be in your

931
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 3: quad for sure. ESPN two, ESPN two.

932
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 1: Tulane put up seventy one points against UAB and then

933
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:15,839
Speaker 1: they went into a bye. M hm.

934
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 3: They probably performed super well after that buy against Rice,

935
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,560
Speaker 3: right kind of playing a clunker against Rice. Really did

936
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 3: look at that spot look ahead spot at least on offense,

937
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 3: a bit of a clunker.

938
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 1: I think Tulane's a better team. But I put this

939
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 1: one in here because I think it's a fun shootout

940
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,720
Speaker 1: and I always take the points in a shootout. North

941
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:38,719
Speaker 1: Texas home dog of the week, why not the Yokos

942
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 1: home dog of the week. I like that pick is

943
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 1: gonna be like thirty nine to thirty seven, some weird

944
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,240
Speaker 1: score that ends up being a shootout, but North Texas

945
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 1: can score. They don't play much defense, but that's sort

946
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 1: of beside the point.

947
00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:00,120
Speaker 3: I have forty nine forty four Tulane de facto super

948
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 3: in Denton for North Texas, although they do have Army

949
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 3: next week. I think Tulane is a bigger deal in

950
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 3: terms of brand power right now with their recent success.

951
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 3: So this is their headline opponent of the season. I

952
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,320
Speaker 3: have North Texas covering, but yeah, all gas, no breaks.

953
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,760
Speaker 3: Not much of a defense there for the mean Green.

954
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:17,879
Speaker 1: I would be a hypocrite if I didn't take Virginia Tech.

955
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 1: After I spoke so glowingly about their current momentum. You

956
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:23,360
Speaker 1: know why.

957
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:29,959
Speaker 3: Tie exactly right, Brent pryor Virginia Tech minus the number

958
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 3: against Georgia Tech same, I like it.

959
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:36,359
Speaker 1: Well. Oklahoma made some moves, so we talked about them

960
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,600
Speaker 1: getting rid of Seth Latrell, and they have promoted Joe

961
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 1: John Finley to be their primary play caller. Kevin John's

962
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 1: getting in on the action as well. They've now named

963
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: Jackson Arnold back as the starting quarterback. The little seesaw

964
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,919
Speaker 1: between him nap the sniff stat between him and Michael

965
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 1: Hawkins Junior continues, I just don't have a reason to

966
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: pick Oklahoma here. I need a reason. Give me your

967
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 1: Tracy Chapman Game of the week is Tracy is a

968
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: Tracy Chapman special. Yeah, I need a reason if I'm

969
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: gonna go Oklahoma plus anything or minus anything at this that's.

970
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,319
Speaker 3: A big number against a decent defense. We still think

971
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 3: Oklahoma has a pretty good defense, right.

972
00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 1: Can they keep up though? Can they keep up against

973
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 1: Ole Miss? I don't think so. I don't know Ole

974
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 1: Miss lost to Kentucky. It's all defense. You're gonna go

975
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 1: Oklahoma plus twenty and a half. I don't think does

976
00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 1: Ole Miss have anybody huge next week? I don't think so.

977
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,319
Speaker 1: I will pull it up and check. I still don't.

978
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 3: I mean, Oklahoma is a big enough program and a

979
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,239
Speaker 3: big enough deal that you don't look past them ever,

980
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 3: no matter what they are.

981
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:43,960
Speaker 1: At ARCA Saw next week before Georgia, so Arkansaw next

982
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 1: week would be the one to highlight with like some

983
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 1: look ahead potential there, right? But then after a bye

984
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:51,760
Speaker 1: they close out the season on the road at Florida

985
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: and come back home against Misissippi State for the Egg Bowl.

986
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 3: I just the players aren't any different around Jackson Arnold,

987
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 3: and I don't love Jackson Arnold's ceiling right now. Hopefully

988
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 3: he can grow into something more interesting as his career progressive,

989
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 3: what progresses, wherever that happens. I just don't have that reason.

990
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:14,360
Speaker 3: You're right in that thinking, I'm going Old Miss.

991
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 1: I do think it if you take Brenton Vannables at

992
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 1: his word. It seems like he is expecting yet some

993
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,640
Speaker 1: of their guys back. But I don't know if it's enough.

994
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 1: I'm I'm just going to lay the number with old miss,

995
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 1: not think twice about it. Any reason to go Nebraska

996
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: plus the points against Ohio State twenty five and a

997
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: half is the points bread.

998
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 2: No.

999
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 3: I think this is the by happened at the right

1000
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:38,920
Speaker 3: time for Ohio State. This is a nice gat right moment,

1001
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,160
Speaker 3: and this is at Ohio State right So Nebraska's on

1002
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 3: the road again after being trounced, and the offense for

1003
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 3: Nebraska has kind of fallen off a cliff. It's not

1004
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 3: just the Indiana game that Nebraska's how many points in

1005
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,280
Speaker 3: Nebraska score against Purdue fourteen?

1006
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:57,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think.

1007
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 3: That I don't know if it's a Dylan Royola and

1008
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 3: being figured out and he's a freshman. I just I

1009
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 3: don't think the skill talent is a is at a

1010
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 3: place for Nebraska right now. And I don't think the

1011
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 3: offensive line's at a place. I don't think the play

1012
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 3: callings at a place. If you're within twenty five and

1013
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:16,320
Speaker 3: a half points of Ohio State, you're saying your defense

1014
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,319
Speaker 3: can get off the field a ton and you can

1015
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 3: lose this game thirty one to seven. Right, and that's

1016
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,320
Speaker 3: not a tunnel. I want to drive down or drive

1017
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 3: through if I'm picking this game. So I'm going to

1018
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 3: Ohio State here to win. Did I write down a score?

1019
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think they're going to score like

1020
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 1: it's gonna be forty two to thirteen. By the way,

1021
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:42,279
Speaker 1: this early block if you're looking to go out do

1022
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: something with the family, with the mister missus.

1023
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 3: I got a soccer game to get to got a

1024
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,359
Speaker 3: five and a half year old soccer game.

1025
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:51,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, got a soccer game. You got to get to

1026
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,920
Speaker 1: go see cats. I don't know what's in the movies.

1027
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: I haven't seen, but this would be the block to

1028
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:57,800
Speaker 1: do it. Do it early.

1029
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 3: I think, do you have something going? I mean, I

1030
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:01,359
Speaker 3: know you're watching all the games, but.

1031
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 1: Well, do I actually have a birthday party? I'm going

1032
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:03,879
Speaker 1: to earlier in the day.

1033
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 3: Oh man, how old is the birthday? Boy or drive

1034
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 3: it's a good birthday. Do you have a present?

1035
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 1: I do? I do? Yeah, I'm not you're not going

1036
00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 1: to disclose that publicly, don't be close of the president.

1037
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: But how likely are you at a five year old's

1038
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 1: birthday party to accept that piece of cake, even though

1039
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 1: cake is, you know, birthday cakes for kids largely trash.

1040
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 1: Are you going to have the slice to be this

1041
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 1: is going to be a homemade Uncle Joe cake? Oh,

1042
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,319
Speaker 1: then you have to do it? Then I have to Yeah, yeah,

1043
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,240
Speaker 1: of course. Do we know the theme of the homemade

1044
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 1: Uncle Joe cake? I don't think I know. I'm not

1045
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 1: fully plugged into any predator. It is not for making

1046
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,279
Speaker 1: a predator cake. Okay, don't I don't believe so that

1047
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 1: might steer the little one. That's true. Okay, let's go

1048
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 1: to the afternoon block.

1049
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 2: Here?

1050
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 1: Where's my quad? Father? There is? My question to you

1051
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:54,959
Speaker 1: is how bad you really want place? This is spicy here?

1052
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,319
Speaker 1: I love it. This is a spicy slate here. I

1053
00:53:58,320 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 1: don't know.

1054
00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:00,560
Speaker 3: Can I is my phone big enough to do a

1055
00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 3: quad on the phone while watching a peewee soccer game?

1056
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 3: Has anybody tried that?

1057
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 1: Oh? You can do it. Oh, I've done it. I

1058
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,520
Speaker 1: know you can. I've done. Is it a bad experience?

1059
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 1: It's not the best. It does look like you're legally blind,

1060
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,120
Speaker 1: holding the fount up to your face very closely to

1061
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 1: see what's going on right, but you you absolutely can

1062
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 1: do it. They've enabled it, which is very clutch, very

1063
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:29,480
Speaker 1: cluch three thirty ESPN BYU minus UCF, U CF favored

1064
00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 1: here now YU minus UCF and that sounds very foreboding.

1065
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:38,359
Speaker 1: Continue BYU is on the road at UCF, and since

1066
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 1: I made the document, now UCF is favored by a

1067
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 1: point and a half. Dan kind of like UCF and

1068
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 1: I hate it all right, So we got that one.

1069
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:49,279
Speaker 1: We've got Texas minus a big number eighteen and a

1070
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:53,239
Speaker 1: half on the road against Vanderbilt. More specifically our boy

1071
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: Diego Pavia. Yeah, guys, a bit of a magician who

1072
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:02,279
Speaker 1: knows three thirty on ESPN plus genuinely interested in this one,

1073
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 1: bowling Green against Toledo. I'll talk about it momentarily. Yeah,

1074
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 1: which team has Harold fannin that'd be bowling Green the

1075
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,719
Speaker 1: fact body. And then three point thirty on Fox I

1076
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:15,000
Speaker 1: pulled out Texas Tech versus TCU tube teams in Texas.

1077
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 1: There are other games in this window that maybe are

1078
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 1: of interest to you Maryland, Minnesota, Oklahoma State Baylor if

1079
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: you're really a sadist, Northwestern against Iowa, some others in

1080
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 1: this particular time slot, that I think are interesting. Tell

1081
00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,319
Speaker 1: me why you like UCF, though, Tell me why you

1082
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:36,719
Speaker 1: like them because I made this document on Sunday night,

1083
00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 1: BYU's two point favorite. Yeah, the line has obviously now

1084
00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 1: shifted in the direction of UCF. The Nights are favored.

1085
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,799
Speaker 1: On paper, this looks like a close game. I do

1086
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,760
Speaker 1: think we have learned over the course of the season

1087
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 1: that don't trust anything on paper about BYU because it

1088
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 1: lies to you true. Yeah, So with that being said,

1089
00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm proceeding cautiously here. I was surprised by

1090
00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,399
Speaker 1: how good UCF looked a week ago against Iowa State.

1091
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. They very easily could have won that game.

1092
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 1: It's possible that their Colorado game a few weeks ago

1093
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 1: is rock bottom because they've gotten a little bit better

1094
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:17,440
Speaker 1: each week despite going on and four over that stretch. Yeah,

1095
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:21,080
Speaker 1: they have gotten a little bit better incrementally, so they're

1096
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: playing better relative to the field. I think they're kind

1097
00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:26,960
Speaker 1: of getting worse per the s P plus each week,

1098
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,839
Speaker 1: but at least within the span of what they're doing

1099
00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 1: when they're out on the field, it seems there is

1100
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,920
Speaker 1: incremental improvement. And I just wonder is the line speaking

1101
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:40,440
Speaker 1: to US. Does Vegas know something about this game that

1102
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,719
Speaker 1: the rest of US don't Because BYU's undefeated, UCF has

1103
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 1: now lost four straight and yet UCF at home is

1104
00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:49,720
Speaker 1: a one and a half in some places two point favorite.

1105
00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, well here, I mean the reality is BYU is

1106
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:57,240
Speaker 3: not separating themselves all the time. They're an elite winner

1107
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,800
Speaker 3: in that way that they are winning in losing efforts

1108
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 3: at times, and even when they're not scoring touchdowns, they're

1109
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 3: forcing turnovers to set up there like they're doing enough

1110
00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 3: good things to win games, which is very admirable. And

1111
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,640
Speaker 3: ninety seven percent of college football fans would love to

1112
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:15,920
Speaker 3: be in the position of BYU fans right now. I'm

1113
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:20,120
Speaker 3: taking UCF here. They made a quarterback change. It looks

1114
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 3: like they should be able to consistently generate those big plays.

1115
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:24,680
Speaker 3: If you're doing it against Iowa State, and I know

1116
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 3: this is not, you know, the greatest Iowa State defense

1117
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,280
Speaker 3: in the past decade, you should be able to do

1118
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 3: it enough against BYU. And look, UCF is an elite

1119
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 3: loser and BYUS an elite winner. Everything's pointing to BYU

1120
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 3: coming back and winning this game because they're more buttoned

1121
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 3: up late and UCF keeps making the same mistakes and

1122
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,440
Speaker 3: their past defense as a trochy like there's just enough

1123
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 3: to dislike, or their run defense I think is worse

1124
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 3: than their past defense UCFS, I don't know. I think

1125
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 3: it's tough to win on the road. I think it's

1126
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 3: tough when you can run the ball like UCF can

1127
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 3: to always lose. So I'm just going with their due.

1128
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:08,560
Speaker 3: UCF is due. I think they're good enough to win

1129
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:12,040
Speaker 3: this game forty to thirty four, and so I'm going

1130
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 3: with UCF here.

1131
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they did make a quarterback change at UCF.

1132
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,480
Speaker 1: Jacurry Brown is now in there. Yeah, through for a

1133
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:22,760
Speaker 1: wholesome sixty two yards and two interceptions last week against

1134
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,760
Speaker 1: Iowa State. But what did he do on the ground?

1135
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 1: Thirteen carries, one hundred and fifty four yards and two

1136
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns Sattle do Peg, including a sixty seven yard run. Obviously, RJ.

1137
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,440
Speaker 1: Harvey still in the roster. He came close to two hundred,

1138
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 1: had two touchdowns as well, had an eighty yard run

1139
00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 1: they ran to bring down two. Yeah, they ran for

1140
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:44,440
Speaker 1: three fifty combined those two guys and a mass four touchdowns.

1141
00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:49,080
Speaker 1: So a very prolific rushing offense. HM, I am also

1142
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 1: going to go to UCF. Here, I feel like the

1143
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 1: line is telling us something. The fact that it shifted

1144
00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 1: from BYU to UCF usually is a pretty good teal

1145
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 1: that I should take the new favorite. Yeah, at least

1146
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 1: seems to be the way it's worked over the course

1147
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,200
Speaker 1: of time. I'm not sure I'm going to go to

1148
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 1: the point where I say that they're due, but I

1149
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:09,919
Speaker 1: do think they could challenge BYU in a different way,

1150
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:13,960
Speaker 1: provided that rushing offense gets back on the rails. Yeah,

1151
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: it's a big if. It's a big if, but I

1152
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: do feel like they are starting to build momentum, They

1153
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 1: are playing better, and that if you look at this

1154
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,800
Speaker 1: purely the results of these games, you will not see it.

1155
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,120
Speaker 1: But if you dig in and look at, like you know,

1156
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 1: some of the advanced stuff, it tends to speak to

1157
00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:31,439
Speaker 1: you see it playing better.

1158
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 3: I like Virginia Tech, by the way, as well, And

1159
00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:35,280
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm pointed that out in the

1160
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:39,800
Speaker 3: early window. Texas Tech, TCU Bowling Green Toledo, Texas Vandy.

1161
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:44,800
Speaker 1: Where are we going? We are going to Texas Vanderbilt. Okay,

1162
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:47,960
Speaker 1: both teams two and one in conference. Vandy actually has

1163
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 1: a better resume thus far. The question is you're going

1164
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 1: to lay eighteen and a half against Diego Pavio on

1165
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: the road.

1166
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 3: I'm willing to write off the ball State game for

1167
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 3: Vandy last week as a look ahead spot or a

1168
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,240
Speaker 3: letdown look ahead spot, if you will, because they did

1169
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:04,520
Speaker 3: beat Kentucky the week before. Texas is reeling a little

1170
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 3: bit first quality opponent of the season. All to respect

1171
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 3: to Michigan or all lack of respect to Michigan. I

1172
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 3: think Vandy covers this spread. I think they're a well

1173
01:00:13,840 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 3: coached team. The addition of Jerry Kill Tim Beck has

1174
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,360
Speaker 3: been big for this offense. Diego Pavia obviously has been

1175
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,960
Speaker 3: enormous for this team. I'm a believer in Texas. I'm

1176
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 3: a believer in Texas as a surefire playoff caliber team,

1177
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:31,440
Speaker 3: as a high ceiling team. I think they're going to

1178
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 3: be a little bit sluggish coming out of the gate

1179
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 3: here against Vandy.

1180
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:36,520
Speaker 1: Diego pavi is a big game hunter man. He is

1181
01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:39,600
Speaker 1: a big game hunter. All he game hunter.

1182
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 2: Is.

1183
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 1: He beats quality SEC teams. He fills up the wagon

1184
01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 1: by shooting too many ox in an Oregon trail. Now

1185
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 1: he can only carry back fifty eight pounds of meat

1186
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: that doesn't stop him from shooting eight hundred. That is

1187
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 1: a very weird analogy. It's okay, I like it, but

1188
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,520
Speaker 1: this guy out for keeps and I would not want

1189
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:05,160
Speaker 1: to bet against him. With a big school like Texas

1190
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:07,960
Speaker 1: coming to town, I don't think they win. I don't

1191
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:10,080
Speaker 1: think they win either, but eighteen. They can keep it

1192
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: with an eighteen.

1193
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:16,320
Speaker 3: And the big thing is Texas's defense this year has

1194
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:20,560
Speaker 3: been outstanding, has been excellent, and they take away big plays,

1195
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 3: They get after the quarterback like they do a number

1196
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:27,200
Speaker 3: of really smart things. I don't think Vandy is pickleball.

1197
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:30,080
Speaker 3: I just think they are there to get under your fingernails,

1198
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 3: tie and they are there to eke out third and

1199
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 3: four after third and four, after third and four, slow

1200
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 3: down a game.

1201
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:39,240
Speaker 1: I'm going Vandy here.

1202
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 3: I think they lose by ten or thirteen points, so

1203
01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:44,880
Speaker 3: I have it twenty seven to seventeen something like that.

1204
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 1: Let's get through these other ones quick. Here thirty thirty

1205
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 1: on Fox, it's Tech against TCU. TCU favored by six

1206
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 1: and a half points. I think this could be a

1207
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,360
Speaker 1: really fun watch. I think one of two things is

1208
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,720
Speaker 1: going to happen, Either ToJ Brooks for Tech is going

1209
01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,160
Speaker 1: to run for two hundred and they're gonna win. Or

1210
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,880
Speaker 1: Josh Hoover's to throw for five touchdowns and TCU is

1211
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 1: gonna win. Yes, Hey, what one of those two things

1212
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 1: is gonna go down in this game? I guess both

1213
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:11,520
Speaker 1: could technically happen, but I think in particular, Tech having

1214
01:02:11,600 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 1: basically no pass rush is what's gonna hurt them big

1215
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:18,280
Speaker 1: time in a game like this. My sense is TCU

1216
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:21,439
Speaker 1: I don't have a great feel for the spread. Six

1217
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 1: and a half seven probably feels about right to me.

1218
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,920
Speaker 1: This is stay away from me with respect to the

1219
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:29,000
Speaker 1: point spread. I think TCU wins, though it's a big if.

1220
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 1: Should Saturday too?

1221
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:34,600
Speaker 3: Right that, Like, if TCU has indeed taken the next step,

1222
01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 3: they should be able to completly beat a very flawed

1223
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 3: Texas Tech team via Texas Tech defense. If Texas Tech

1224
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:47,040
Speaker 3: is indeed a disaster defensively, they should lose this game,

1225
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 3: right they should? You know it's you look at the space.

1226
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,120
Speaker 3: If Vanderbilt is truly a dangerous team, they should be

1227
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,120
Speaker 3: able to keep it reasonably close.

1228
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:54,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1229
01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:57,600
Speaker 3: If Alabama is truly cooked this year as far as

1230
01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 3: like a playoff caliber team, they should struggle to separate

1231
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 3: from a zoo, and so there is a lot of

1232
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,400
Speaker 3: that going on this weekend. So I'm with you. I'm

1233
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:08,560
Speaker 3: giving those points on the road. I think Baylor beats

1234
01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 3: Texas Tech twice to see you by ten to thirteen.

1235
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:14,320
Speaker 1: And then the other game that I pulled out here

1236
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:17,200
Speaker 1: that I am really interested in is the Battle for

1237
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,560
Speaker 1: Interstate seventy five, the rivalry between Bowling Green and Toledo.

1238
01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:24,480
Speaker 1: Toledo is favored by two and a half points. Two

1239
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:27,480
Speaker 1: of Bowling Green's four losses were against Penn State and

1240
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 1: A and M, both by one score, so they're not bad.

1241
01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:34,280
Speaker 1: Not bad. Also, we have a very fun video that

1242
01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:37,920
Speaker 1: we're going to re release on the Rocket outside of

1243
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 1: Toledo Stadium. The relevance to this game one of those

1244
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 1: fun facts for college football that we've been putting out,

1245
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 1: So go and check that out our social feeds. I

1246
01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 1: like Bowling Green a lot. I don't like this matchup.

1247
01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:53,960
Speaker 1: I think they need to play off the run in

1248
01:03:54,080 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 1: order to get their offense moving, and I think Toledo

1249
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,919
Speaker 1: is very very good at stopping the run. I've got

1250
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:04,440
Speaker 1: this one at something like twenty three seventeen Toledo, Okay.

1251
01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 1: I considered locking it up. I feel very confident in

1252
01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 1: Toledo here my locks have been horrible as of late.

1253
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:15,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna refrain from locking this game up. But this

1254
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:17,320
Speaker 1: could be one of the money bets. One of the

1255
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 1: money bets. Excuse me that I come back to and

1256
01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:22,000
Speaker 1: post out on the Twitter feed bright and early on

1257
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 1: Saturday morning. As long as it stays at three or less.

1258
01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 1: We get outside of three, then we start pushing the

1259
01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 1: limits of what I'm comfortable with here because they do

1260
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:33,640
Speaker 1: think it'll be close. But right now I'm at twenty

1261
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 1: three seventeen, Toledo winning the rivalry, Bowling Green, Bunch of

1262
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:42,720
Speaker 1: Road Falcs, Ty bunch of Road Falcons putting the fear

1263
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 1: of God into Texas. A and M and Penn stayed

1264
01:04:44,680 --> 01:04:48,840
Speaker 1: on the road. This where's this game being played? Games

1265
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:50,040
Speaker 1: being played on the road in Toledo.

1266
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:54,240
Speaker 3: Glass twenty four twenty three Bowling Green, Harold Fantom goes

1267
01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:56,080
Speaker 3: for two hundred and fifty plus yards.

1268
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: Do you have any other leans in this window? I do.

1269
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:04,280
Speaker 3: I like Minnesota a good deal against Maryland, even the

1270
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:06,760
Speaker 3: points Minnesota has been I think strong to very strong

1271
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:10,000
Speaker 3: against the spread, especially at home. I like Baylor a

1272
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:14,440
Speaker 3: lot against Oklahoma State. Why, I think there's proof of concept.

1273
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:17,680
Speaker 3: I think they're feeling confident. Obviously, Dave Randa had the

1274
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 3: sense of having his back up against the wall heading

1275
01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 3: into the season. They were right there with Colorado. They

1276
01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:25,480
Speaker 3: lost that game kind of in a stupid way, of course,

1277
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 3: but Colorado looks to be one of the classes of

1278
01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 3: the conference and Baylor played them to the final whistle.

1279
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:35,200
Speaker 3: So there's something about the fight in Baylor right now

1280
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,280
Speaker 3: that I like. The offensive skill I like right now

1281
01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 3: in Baylor. And so with Oklahoma State reeling and finding

1282
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:43,960
Speaker 3: new ways to lose every week no matter the opponent,

1283
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,440
Speaker 3: they're still winless in the Big Twelve. Oklahoma State a

1284
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 3: little bit of an elite loser as well. This game

1285
01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:51,600
Speaker 3: is on ESPN Plus. By the way, I just I'm

1286
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:53,240
Speaker 3: going to give those points with Baylor. I'm gonna give

1287
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:54,919
Speaker 3: the points with Iowa. I'm going to give the points

1288
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 3: with wake Forest, and I'm gonna give the points with

1289
01:05:56,600 --> 01:05:59,120
Speaker 3: cal I like a lot of favorites in the afternoon.

1290
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:06,800
Speaker 1: Okay, wow, I kind of go Oklahoma State here. Oli

1291
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 1: Gordon's leg is questionable right now, which is a pretty

1292
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 1: big deal. But then again, Oklahoma State hasn't exactly had

1293
01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:17,760
Speaker 1: a prolific rushing offense this season. Nope, So I don't know.

1294
01:06:17,800 --> 01:06:20,160
Speaker 1: This one jumped out to me. I think I'm taking

1295
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:24,080
Speaker 1: points here. I don't have a whole lot of confidence

1296
01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:27,440
Speaker 1: in Baylor. I would also be inclined to go Minnesota.

1297
01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 1: We've got basically two of USC's losses duking it out

1298
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 1: on FS one at three point thirty. Letdown spot for

1299
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:36,960
Speaker 1: Maryland after the letdowns brushing the field. Yeah, the letdown

1300
01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 1: spot is something that jumps out. Let's go to our nightcap, dain,

1301
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's do it. Welcome to the pain

1302
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:48,800
Speaker 1: zones where we live. What you how many tom Platz

1303
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:51,960
Speaker 1: drops do you have? I have five on the screen here.

1304
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:53,520
Speaker 3: So what I'm saying, it's been a couple of weeks,

1305
01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 3: like a lot of people are scared.

1306
01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:59,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, now I've got I've got five of them pulled

1307
01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:03,960
Speaker 1: out these four seven point thirty Big ten Network Michigan

1308
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 1: State versus Michigan Michigan favored by three and a half points.

1309
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 1: Eight pm on ACC Network, SMU minus eleven and one

1310
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:17,640
Speaker 1: half points against Duke eight pm on True TV San

1311
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 1: Jose State against Fresno State, and then at seven just

1312
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:29,720
Speaker 1: because it's a rivalry. ESPN Florida State versus Miami, Miami

1313
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:33,080
Speaker 1: favored by a twenty one point Stan. Yes, why don't

1314
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:37,920
Speaker 1: we start with the Michigan State Michigan game. This is

1315
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,000
Speaker 1: a battle of two teams that are four and three

1316
01:07:42,080 --> 01:07:45,880
Speaker 1: in week nine. This point spread when we made the

1317
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 1: document was Michigan minus seven earlier in the week. It's

1318
01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:53,720
Speaker 1: come down. It is a big home game at night

1319
01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 1: in the Big House, with a big matchup on deck

1320
01:07:56,400 --> 01:08:00,280
Speaker 1: with Oregon coming to town. It's not a look though,

1321
01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:04,320
Speaker 1: It's a rivalry. Yeah, absolutely rivalry. For me, this is simple.

1322
01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 1: This game comes down to Aid and Chiles. Are we

1323
01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:11,480
Speaker 1: going to see mistake prone Aiden Chiles or are we

1324
01:08:11,520 --> 01:08:13,120
Speaker 1: going to see the version of them that we saw

1325
01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:18,799
Speaker 1: last week that was real and spectacular. Will he ascend

1326
01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:22,080
Speaker 1: to Jackie Chiles levels of his quarterback play of the

1327
01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:25,960
Speaker 1: Childs Multiverse, or are we going to see the version

1328
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 1: of him that's been very mistake prone, Because that's really

1329
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:31,680
Speaker 1: what I think Michigan's counting on. Michigan is counting on

1330
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,439
Speaker 1: its defense to create some mistakes. It is a mistake

1331
01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:38,400
Speaker 1: prone sparty offense. If they can generate turnovers, if they

1332
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:41,080
Speaker 1: can create mistakes. If they can keep them behind the chains,

1333
01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:44,160
Speaker 1: then I think you like the Michigan odds of winning

1334
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,960
Speaker 1: this football game. The problem for Michigan is moving the

1335
01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:50,280
Speaker 1: football once they get it. The offense. I mean, this

1336
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:52,600
Speaker 1: is not a new thing. We're in week nine. It

1337
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 1: has been the story the full way through. Can they

1338
01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 1: move the football? Can they throw the football? Can they

1339
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 1: find some way to generate offense and even threatened with

1340
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 1: a big play once the ball is in their possession.

1341
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 1: That is the question for me in this game. Do

1342
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:08,920
Speaker 1: you have a leen here? Oh? Not only do I

1343
01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:12,080
Speaker 1: have a lean Michigan State lock of the week? Whoa yeah,

1344
01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 1: bluck of the week. That's a lot of confidence for

1345
01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:21,120
Speaker 1: a team playing on the road at night.

1346
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:23,599
Speaker 3: I agree in the house of the rival, yeah, they're

1347
01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:25,800
Speaker 3: not flying across the country though. Here here's where I

1348
01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:30,759
Speaker 3: am with Michigan and Michigan State. Michigan doesn't do much well.

1349
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 3: They don't do much well as a team. Vegas has

1350
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 3: been overvaluing Michigan all season long, desperate for Michigan to

1351
01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:39,839
Speaker 3: cover a spread. All they're trying to do in Vegas

1352
01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:42,800
Speaker 3: is get enough money on both sides, and all that

1353
01:09:42,840 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 3: Michigan does is loose as in regards to the spread,

1354
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:50,000
Speaker 3: I think they're like fourteen percent against the spread this year.

1355
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:52,479
Speaker 3: I don't think Michigan State is great. You ask which

1356
01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 3: Aiden Childs are we getting, I can tell you which

1357
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:57,439
Speaker 3: one tie we're getting both. We're getting both the quality

1358
01:09:57,439 --> 01:09:59,439
Speaker 3: Aiden Childs and we're getting the mistake prone one because

1359
01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:01,639
Speaker 3: that's been the act actual experience for the most part

1360
01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:05,479
Speaker 3: with Michigan State. I like gaining confidence last week against Iowa.

1361
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:07,679
Speaker 3: I think this was always going to be a team

1362
01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,400
Speaker 3: that grows into itself with a new coach and replacing

1363
01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:14,400
Speaker 3: what they replaced. I just like pieces on this team

1364
01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 3: more than I like Michigan's. Like, there's great players on

1365
01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:21,040
Speaker 3: this Michigan defense. If you can't score twenty points, ty,

1366
01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:24,720
Speaker 3: what are we talking about. I don't think Illinois is

1367
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 3: that great. They scored seven. Jack Tittle's not especially good.

1368
01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:31,880
Speaker 3: Michigan State's defense is fine. I think they've got players

1369
01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:34,200
Speaker 3: up front. I think they've got playmakers on offense. I

1370
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:37,839
Speaker 3: really like Nick marsh I like their corners, Michigan State's corners.

1371
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,639
Speaker 3: I just don't think Michigan's built to win against an

1372
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:44,400
Speaker 3: even an Okay, Michigan State team at this point. So

1373
01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 3: I'm will Michigan State to win this game by ten.

1374
01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:50,280
Speaker 1: I've got Michigan State plus the points as well. Yeah,

1375
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:52,719
Speaker 1: I think we are agreeing on far too many games here,

1376
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 1: But I can't find a good reason to go against

1377
01:10:57,400 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 1: Michigan State in this matchup. I mean, they did be

1378
01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:02,720
Speaker 1: Iowa a week ago as a proof of concept. They

1379
01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:06,360
Speaker 1: went up against a very good defense. We're overreacting to

1380
01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:08,880
Speaker 1: one win, to be clear, We're overreacting, but at least

1381
01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:12,360
Speaker 1: but we saw that they can do it. We saw

1382
01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:14,799
Speaker 1: that they can do it. They scored thirty two points?

1383
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,000
Speaker 1: Was it thirty four points against that? I would defense

1384
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,400
Speaker 1: that I think is meaningful.

1385
01:11:21,040 --> 01:11:24,559
Speaker 3: And I think the worse your offense gets, the more

1386
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:28,799
Speaker 3: hopeless your defense gets, the more tired. Certainly your defense gets.

1387
01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 3: Michigan It's not a look ahead spot for them, But

1388
01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 3: I think as the weeks progress there probably has to

1389
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 3: be something within that program like, well, this year's done,

1390
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,000
Speaker 3: right that, Like what are we playing for right now?

1391
01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:43,840
Speaker 3: You always want to beat Michigan State. You always want

1392
01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:46,320
Speaker 3: to beat Michigan State by fifty if you're Michigan. But

1393
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:49,920
Speaker 3: you can talk yourself out of reality for so long

1394
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:51,800
Speaker 3: and I think now we're getting into it a little

1395
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 3: bit with Michigan.

1396
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:56,479
Speaker 1: Eight pm, SMU minus eleven and a half against Duke.

1397
01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:00,800
Speaker 1: I don't know how you feel about Duke. I feel

1398
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 1: much better about SMU. I've got them winning by two

1399
01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:03,800
Speaker 1: to three scores here.

1400
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:07,439
Speaker 3: I think SMU is two to three score is better.

1401
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 3: But situationally, this was SMU flying to Stanford, flying to

1402
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:13,360
Speaker 3: the West coast, flying home, now flying to the East

1403
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:16,960
Speaker 3: coast to take on Duke. We think Duke probably is

1404
01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,479
Speaker 3: pretty good and has a good defense.

1405
01:12:19,720 --> 01:12:22,479
Speaker 1: It might be I think we think Duke has a

1406
01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:26,360
Speaker 1: good defense. Yes, we think Duke plays solid defense. That

1407
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 1: is all I think about Duke. I am not so

1408
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:31,719
Speaker 1: certain of the offense or what the state of play

1409
01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:35,679
Speaker 1: is there, and that is potentially inflated by who they've played.

1410
01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:38,599
Speaker 1: The Florida State offense. Middle Tennessee might be the worst

1411
01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: FBS team, Yukon is fine. Northwestern's offense has been a nightmare.

1412
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 1: We were at that game. It was not a fun

1413
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 1: offensive matchup. I'm going to go with the better team

1414
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:53,400
Speaker 1: in SMU to win this game. I'm going to take points,

1415
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:58,000
Speaker 1: though I think it's reasonably close. San Jose State Fresno.

1416
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,120
Speaker 1: I'm on Fresno here. I like the San Jose is

1417
01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 1: a state story so far, but I think Fresno has

1418
01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:05,160
Speaker 1: been there before, So I'm gonna lay the number against.

1419
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,360
Speaker 1: I'm going San Jose State going see, like, all right,

1420
01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:08,720
Speaker 1: it's good to get some disagreement here.

1421
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:10,800
Speaker 3: I want big plays on offense. I'm going San Jose

1422
01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:12,280
Speaker 3: State at night and.

1423
01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:15,760
Speaker 1: Florida State Miami. Will there be any weirdness in this game?

1424
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:19,639
Speaker 1: Miami favored by twenty one, big spread, but they've played

1425
01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:22,320
Speaker 1: in a couple close games now, a couple close games

1426
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:25,559
Speaker 1: back to back to back. Florida State, This could be

1427
01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:29,040
Speaker 1: Florida State's chance to upand the college football.

1428
01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:31,280
Speaker 3: Universe, Dan, I know it's fun to hear you say

1429
01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:33,840
Speaker 3: things you don't believe trying try.

1430
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:34,519
Speaker 1: I mean, drum this.

1431
01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 3: Miami's gonna win this game forty nine to ten. The

1432
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:40,040
Speaker 3: weird thing would be Florida State scoring seventeen points.

1433
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,680
Speaker 1: Other games in this window West Virginia Arizona could be

1434
01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:46,920
Speaker 1: of interest. Auburn Kentucky could be a rock fight. We

1435
01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:50,519
Speaker 1: got the Sunflower showdown between Kansas and Kansas State could

1436
01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:53,519
Speaker 1: be of interest. A couple games here for your choosing.

1437
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:57,360
Speaker 3: I think West Virginia is feistier away from home, beating

1438
01:13:57,360 --> 01:14:01,360
Speaker 3: Oklahoma State right, should have beaten pitt Arizona when they're

1439
01:14:01,360 --> 01:14:05,080
Speaker 3: not good, people stop showing up the Desert empties out.

1440
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:08,759
Speaker 3: So I'm going West Virginia there. I like Kentucky against

1441
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:12,800
Speaker 3: Auburn by a touchdowner so I think Auburn throwing into

1442
01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 3: a defense that generates a bunch of turnovers bad matchup

1443
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:19,000
Speaker 3: for the Tigers. I like Kansas State big against Kansas

1444
01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 3: I think should be another huge game for Avery Johnson.

1445
01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 3: And I like Utah over Houston. I still like Utah

1446
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 3: even with the changes, even with down vibes. I think

1447
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:30,200
Speaker 3: the Houston team is just not built to win against

1448
01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:31,599
Speaker 3: a decent team. So I'm going in Utah here.

1449
01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. Kansas State Lock of the week, by the way,

1450
01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 1: nice luck of the week. One of two locks. Ooh,

1451
01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:44,559
Speaker 1: My second lock is at ten fifteen ESPN Cincinnati versus

1452
01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:47,559
Speaker 1: Colorado Colorado minus five and a half. Give me another

1453
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:55,400
Speaker 1: one Luck of the week. I love Colorado in this spot.

1454
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:58,200
Speaker 1: I think I do too. I du love it one.

1455
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:02,200
Speaker 1: Your point on previous episode about the defense taking a

1456
01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:06,160
Speaker 1: big step forward should not be overlooked I do think

1457
01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:08,320
Speaker 1: that is legit. They have gotten better on that side

1458
01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:12,080
Speaker 1: of the ball. Secondly, if you look across what Cincinnati

1459
01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:16,240
Speaker 1: has done this season, the common thread is that Cincinnati

1460
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:21,280
Speaker 1: is beatable. If they are playing a team that can throw, yes,

1461
01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:25,840
Speaker 1: and Colorado throws, that might be the only thing Colorado does.

1462
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:29,760
Speaker 1: So minus five and a half points, I think Cincinnati battle.

1463
01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:31,840
Speaker 1: I don't think Cincinnati is a bad team, but I

1464
01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:34,280
Speaker 1: do think Colorado is building some momentum. I like the

1465
01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:37,600
Speaker 1: fact that it's games at home, it's at night, the

1466
01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:39,760
Speaker 1: fact that it feels like they have gotten better. I

1467
01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:42,120
Speaker 1: did see Travis Hunter. He was nicked up in the

1468
01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:44,760
Speaker 1: last game, but he's probable with his injury, so he

1469
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:49,160
Speaker 1: should be back, hopefully for this contest. I'm also not

1470
01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,559
Speaker 1: super crazy about some of Cince He's underlying numbers. So

1471
01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:54,760
Speaker 1: give me Colorado minus five and a half is my

1472
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:56,719
Speaker 1: second lock of the week. Do me a favor.

1473
01:15:56,760 --> 01:15:59,880
Speaker 3: Speaking of underlying numbers, do you have the document in

1474
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:02,880
Speaker 3: front of you? I do open up since or excuse me,

1475
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 3: open up Colorado's team profile. Yeah, is it open?

1476
01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:09,800
Speaker 1: It's open? Okay, scroll down to defensive pressure rates. If

1477
01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:11,720
Speaker 1: all they do is pass, what is their pressure rate

1478
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,800
Speaker 1: in national numbers. What is it is?

1479
01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:21,520
Speaker 3: Come on, Colorado's defensive pressure rates six quarterback sixth nationally.

1480
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:25,400
Speaker 3: They do more than past tie. They go after quarterback

1481
01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:30,000
Speaker 3: spleens right now, Sam Oakulola and BJ Green. They're getting

1482
01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:32,479
Speaker 3: after it tie. Their defense is better than their offense.

1483
01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:34,920
Speaker 1: Any other thoughts about these Lake games? I guess we

1484
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:37,880
Speaker 1: agree there, Wazoo San Diego State, You have any thoughts there?

1485
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:40,320
Speaker 3: I have Wazoo big against San Diego State. I just

1486
01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 3: don't think San Diego State has an offense that can

1487
01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,479
Speaker 3: keep this relatively close. So I'm going Wazoo here. San

1488
01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 3: Diego State has gotten better over the course of the season,

1489
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:50,080
Speaker 3: but Wazoo is just gonna run the hell out of

1490
01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:50,400
Speaker 3: the ball.

1491
01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:54,840

Speaker 1: you a friend. We have done very well this season.

1516
01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 1: We're hoping to try and continue our own momentum as

1517
01:18:05,439 --> 01:18:07,599
Speaker 1: we get into the month of November.

1518
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:14,120
Speaker 3: Dan absolutely, and as we get into dropping that big stanky, writhing,

1519
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:18,760
Speaker 3: splashing drum and fife.

1520
01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:22,320
Speaker 1: Did you have something you'd like to add to that.

1521
01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:24,559
Speaker 3: Or are you just gonna leave it hanging in my

1522
01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 3: picks for the Patriots.

1523
01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:27,280
Speaker 1: Oh, your picks to the patriotch okay. I was like,

1524
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,000
Speaker 1: I said, as we're doing that, here are my picks

1525
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:30,880
Speaker 1: with the Patriot. But big stanky drumming five, we couldn't

1526

1527
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:36,200
Speaker 1: big and very stanky. That's true. Twelve o'clock Fordham Oh
