Normally when 27 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: we're putting together there's a lot of thought that goes 28 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: into these nicknames for a given soul, into the nicknames. Yes, 29 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: not the show I'm talking about. The nick names come 30 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: on specifically the nicknames.

Is that that is the apps? 55 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: I don't know news wise, is I mean, if you 56 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: wanted to play the news sound the news drop. There's 57 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: some injury stuff. Georgia Southern fired their coach Chad Lunsford 58 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: after a bummer of a start, and so there's that. 59 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: That's a you know, another open job after the USC 60 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: job came open. But I don't know. Brian Berze out 61 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: for the season, which is a bummer for Clemson. Upfront, 62 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 1: Will Shipley appears that he's going to be back. I 63 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: saw Matt Corral as the very slight Heisman leading contender 64 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: right now, and that's ahead of an enormous matchup that 65 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: we'll get into any other news worth jumping into. 66 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: No, I think we should level set here though, and 67 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 2: talk about week five, because I think the right labeling 68 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 2: is something's got to give. Saturday. What do we mean 69 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: by that? Well, I was four and oh they're on 70 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 2: the road Friday night against Maryland, also four, and oh 71 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: we've got Arkansas at four and oh on the road 72 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: at Georgia four. And O. Maybe you're detecting a trend 73 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 2: here Cincinnati three, and oh at Notre Dame four and oh, 74 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: oh Miss three, and oh at Bama four and oh, 75 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: Baylor the Bears, my boys at Oklahoma State four, and oh, 76 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 2: there's a lot of action this week. That's ten undefeated 77 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 2: teams all squaring off against one another. Something's got to 78 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: give to. 79 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: Something's got to give. Even specific matchups, something's got to give, right, 80 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: Like there are I mean, I was looking at Oregon, Stanford, 81 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: even Maryland, Iowa, like there are just matchups where was like, Okay, 82 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: one team can run the hell out of the ball 83 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: and the other team can stop the run at a 84 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: crazy rate. Some's got to give. Someone's gotta give. It's 85 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: sort of that immovable object kind of situation. So yeah, 86 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: it's I'm especially excited even though the top of the 87 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: sport doesn't necessarily feature like two against five, eight against four, whatever, 88 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: it's going to be a great weekend. 89 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: I'm very much looking forward to this weekend. I should 90 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 2: issue a bit of a disclaimer. I am not at 91 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: all confident with my picks this week. Okay, you feel differently, 92 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 2: you feel pretty good about your picks this week. So 93 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 2: you're saying, you know, the totem of tie is on 94 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 2: shaky ground, the totem of tie is on it's on 95 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 2: sand right now. Okay, I'm not feeling good about week five. 96 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 2: So many of these matchups and going through and trying 97 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: to read the tea leaves and look at stats and numbers, 98 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 2: eventually your eyes just kind of glaze over, right. A 99 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 2: lot of these feel like they're on a nice edge. 100 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 2: To me, it could really go either way. And so 101 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: if you detect some dearth of confidence as I am 102 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 2: going through, that would be why tough games this week, 103 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 2: really good games with tough games. 104 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you. On this end, Tie, we hear 105 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 1: at the altar of Dan believe in a brick by 106 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: brick mentality. Mortars, drills, nails, screws. Come on, no, we 107 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: never waiver. Yeah, the soundboard. Uh, situation for me is 108 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: just an absolute nightmare. This is my ability to come 109 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: up with sounds that you have no control over. I 110 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: suppose maybe in the final edit you do, but that 111 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: then it makes it sound weird that you're laughing at 112 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: something that's not there. So yeah, I'm very confident because 113 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: the belief system remains strong. 114 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 2: Again, let's get into week five. That was a general 115 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 2: just do you like that me? 116 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: That home depot by the way, that little home that 117 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: was good, thank you, thank you. 118 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 2: Not a sponsor, home depot, not. 119 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: A sponsor, could be. 120 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 2: So week five, We've got a bunch of headliners here 121 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 2: that we pulled out that we're going to go through 122 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 2: and discuss. We do need to start here the so 123 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 2: called window of opportunity again, the window of opportunity is 124 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: when you can step away from the football, if you 125 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: have to go out do normal people's stuff. I was 126 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 2: having some real difficulty Dan finding a window this week. 127 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 2: Maybe later, maybe later if you're not into Baylor Oklahoma State. 128 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: Maybe later if you're not into Arizona State UCLA. But 129 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: it's also late. Yeah, there's also a Mississippi State A 130 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: and M game, which should be interesting. Indiana at Penn 131 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: State could be interesting. Who knows even BC at Clemson, 132 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: Auburn at LSU. Those games are late, So I I 133 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 2: think it's a late window for me, is it? You're 134 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: okay with you? 135 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, go out, get some starfry, get some Pakistani food, gets, 136 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 1: you know, make it a pizza Saturday if you must, 137 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: like I just I think you go out late and uh, 138 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: you know, maybe play some play some softball under the lights. 139 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: I don't know, Okay, do your thing, do your thing. 140 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: I'm I'm just really struggling with missing any of the 141 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 2: early games because I just personally has so many questions 142 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 2: about the earlier slate of games. We'll start here at 143 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 2: high noon on es PN. It is Arkansas on the 144 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: road at Georgia. 145 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: Excuse you, Arkansas also known as. 146 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: Js of Texas. 147 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: Everybody knows that continue. 148 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: This is a problem. This is going to be a 149 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: problem now that. 150 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: Even well you beat Texas Texas A and M and rice, 151 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: that makes you Jews of Texas. 152 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 2: Sorry, it's very true. Yeah, the Kings of Texas are 153 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: an eighteen point dog as they travel east to square 154 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: off against the Georgia Bulldogs. So look, we put these 155 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 2: show docs together weeks in advance based on what we 156 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 2: think the biggest games each week are going to be. 157 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 2: It's not uncommon that you miss some that you have 158 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 2: to go back and add some. It is more uncommon 159 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: that you totally whiff and don't even have it as 160 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: a thing on the radar. 161 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: That's what I had a few this week. By the way, 162 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,479 Speaker 1: I added a few, but just to touch on later. 163 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 2: And that's fine. I whiffed on this game. I whiffed 164 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 2: on this game. I was not in on Arkansas before 165 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 2: last week, but now now they're all the way up 166 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: to number eight in the AP Top twenty five after 167 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 2: the win against A and M. Been an incredible story 168 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 2: so far, and we have no choice but to talk 169 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 2: about Arkansas. This team has been one of the best 170 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 2: stories so far in twenty twenty one. My guess here 171 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: is that people are going to see this line and 172 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: be like whoa, whoa, and I think the public betting 173 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: numbers reflect that as well. I looked yesterday something like 174 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 2: eighty percent of the money was coming in on Arkansas. 175 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: I understand why the line is high. I totally get that, 176 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 2: and I think I still feel like it's too much. 177 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: Where are you at with this. 178 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: I think it's too much. I do think it's too much. 179 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: I think Georgia is the more dependable team, not just 180 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: not necessarily though against the spread, I think they've gotten 181 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: into a nice rhythm. But again, maybe they haven't. It's 182 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: South Carolina and Vanderbilt. There's an issue for me at 183 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: this point, thinking, Okay, we've seen Georgia be at Week 184 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: one against a really really good defense and offensive touchdowns? 185 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: How many? How many they mount up five to six 186 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: zero offensive touchdowns against Clemson. Now, Clemson's defense is better 187 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: than Arkansas defense, and we also have a hog team 188 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 1: coming in. I think pretty beat up given where kJ 189 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: Jefferson had to leave the game and didn't fully practice, 190 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: but Sam Pittman said he's expected to play on Saturday 191 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: at Treylon Burks. There their clear number one weapon went 192 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: fully healthy out wide, he leaves the game and was 193 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 1: beat up going into the game itself against A and M. 194 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: So there are some concerning factors against a Georgia team 195 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: that looks like they might have the best defense in 196 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: the country. But eighteen points is a lot of points 197 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: to me, especially since Georgia, I mean they're getting healthier. 198 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: I think they're getting guys back on offense, it looks like, 199 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 1: but they have one of the better tight ends in 200 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: the SEC, if not the country, and freshman brock Bauers. 201 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: Of course, we have JT. Daniels seemingly healthy. Once again. 202 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: I just think we are possibly, I think, inflating Georgia 203 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: at this point because we want there to be excellence 204 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: in the sport because so many of the teams that 205 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: we expected to be excellent just aren't. So I think 206 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: Georgia is really, really, really good, but I think Arkansas 207 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: is dangerous enough to keep this within a couple touchdowns. 208 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: And I'm not loving the Arkansas ability to win this game, 209 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: but losing by thirteen to sixteen points, I'm right there. 210 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: I'm right there with Barry otom against an offense that 211 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: can struggle, I'm just going with it. 212 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I do we devalue the Week one game against Clemson. 213 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: If you're Georgia, we don't devalue that now, are we 214 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 2: at that point? Yeah? 215 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're pulling into the devaluation station. Okay by checking 216 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: At the same time, Georgia has done what a really, 217 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: really really good team should do against South Carolina and Vanderbilt, 218 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: like we've seen a lot of supposedly great teams win 219 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: by seven or eleven against teams like those, and I 220 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: think there is something about the quick and immediate lethal 221 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: separation that Georgia has has been able to impose upon 222 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: those opponents, so that at least gives me some hope 223 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: that Georgia is on the path to being dependably excellent. 224 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 2: I'm pretty confident George is gonna win this game, but 225 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: eighteen is a big, dirty number. Man, that is too big. 226 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: I would not bet real American currency on this game. 227 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: To be clear, I'm not at all confident in the 228 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: point spread. I am confident George is gonna win. My 229 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 2: sense so far is that Arkansas is really solid from 230 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 2: top to bottom. But I'm still a little unconvinced that 231 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 2: kJ Jefferson and the two trailings are going to be 232 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: enough to power this offense through an SEC schedule. I 233 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 2: feel like there need to be more contributors that perhaps 234 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: will emerge and could emerge and should emerge. But yes, 235 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,559 Speaker 2: right now, that three headed monster, to me, I need 236 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: to see more. If you're going up against a team 237 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 2: like a Georgia in Alabama, some of the better competition 238 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: in the SEC A M is not where we expected 239 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 2: them to be. I'm not devaluing what Arkansas did against 240 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: a very good defense, but I just I want to 241 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 2: see a little bit more balanced before I'm going to 242 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: commit to the bit here with Arkansas. I think Georgia 243 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 2: wins thirty four to seventeen. I think they win rather barely. 244 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: Cover. 245 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, but eighteen I can't justify eighteen. I just can't 246 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 2: do it. 247 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: I have twenty eight seventeen. I think Arkansas on defense 248 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: does a good enough job, though it does scare me 249 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: the injuries mounting up in the second half. This is when, 250 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, as we get closer to and in October, 251 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: this is when depth really starts to take over. And 252 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 1: I think Arkansas starters are really good, but I think 253 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: it's going to start. The full roster will start getting tested, 254 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: and George is a team that is just not to 255 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: be trifled with. So I have twenty eight seventeen. 256 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 2: We sort of agree, then we sort of twelve o'clock 257 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: on Fox. I believe it's the big noon kickoff game, 258 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 2: Michigan on the road going to Madison to square off 259 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 2: against the Badgers. The theme for this point spread is 260 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: wait for it, jump around, jump around, Dan. 261 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm saying, by the way, it has jumped around, 262 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: so that's a whole second. It opened at what minus two, 263 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: It jumped up to Michigan minus one. Now I'm saying 264 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: Wisconsin minus one or minus two all the way up 265 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: to minus two and a half it looks like at 266 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: the win. So it really is sort of a jumping 267 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: being at this moment for our. 268 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 2: Purposes here, Yeah, let's call it a pick them. Okay, 269 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: call it a pick them. I have been blown away 270 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: by what a brutal start Wisconsin has gotten off to 271 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: so far this year, not just in terms of their 272 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 2: on field output, but with respect to the schedule as well. 273 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 2: I don't feel like we talked enough about that in 274 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 2: the preseason, but the start you're seeing off with Penn State, 275 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 2: with Notre Dame and now Michigan in three of your 276 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 2: first four games, that's a gauntlet and if you don't 277 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 2: have your stuff together, it's gonna come back to haunt you. 278 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: So far, on the Wisconsin side, it has. They could 279 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 2: potentially be staring down the barrel of a one and 280 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: three start here, not at all out of the question, 281 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 2: and that's really saying something because we, I think expected 282 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 2: that it was going to be either Wisconsin or Iowa 283 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: coming out of the West to contend with Ohio state 284 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 2: in the east. How quickly things can change. I'm on 285 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 2: the fence here. We're gonna have to talk this one 286 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 2: out as a group because broadly speaking, Michigan's got the 287 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 2: better offense, Wisconsin's got the better defense. It's times like 288 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 2: this where I like to quote the wise profit Ashanti, 289 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: It's about trust, babe. 290 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: Okay, I was gonna go. I was just gonna think 291 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna go deeper cut, but you want, okay, continue. 292 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 2: Which unit? Which team do you have more trust for Daniel. 293 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: Michigan at the moment? Which is scared to say, because 294 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: I don't really trust Michigan all that much. But right now, 295 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: the most catastrophic part of this matchup is Wisconsin's offense. 296 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: And so if you're asking me if I trust Kid 297 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: McNamara or Graham Mertz more, right now, it's caid. I 298 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 1: trust overall the Wisconsin defense the most. But in terms 299 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: of something's got to give at some point, if Wisconsin's 300 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: defense is on the field a ton because their own 301 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: offense can't stay on the field, something's got to give, 302 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: and they're going to give up a couple of touchdowns 303 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: in the way that against Notre Dame, Wisconsin's defense was 304 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: even though it was the kick return and the pick 305 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: six is whatever, that just Wisconsin's defense was on the 306 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: field a ton so right now on the margins, if 307 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: these two teams are built pretty similarly, lacking creativity and 308 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: at times sense and the ability to put players into 309 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: better positions on offense, as we saw Michigan just run 310 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: into eight nine man boxes against Rutgers over and over 311 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: and really struggle in the second half of you know, 312 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 1: holding on against a Rutgers team that didn't have much 313 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: in the way of offense. I trust Michigan's quarterback more. 314 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: I trust Michigan special teams more. I think I trust 315 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: Michigan in terms of generating explosive plays and preventing them 316 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: a little bit more. That combination and the turnover margin 317 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: at this point favors Michigan. So if Bill ces top 318 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 1: two factors in determining who wins most of the games 319 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: of a college football season are generating and preventing explosive 320 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: plays and also turnovers, I think Michigan fills that a 321 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: little bit more impressively. In a pick them type situation. 322 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: So I have Michigan winning this game by four, I 323 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: mean Wisconsin fourteen to ten. You don't even have to 324 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: prevent big plays from Wisconsin. They just it's just not 325 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: part of their game play. It's not part of their 326 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: game plan. They've been horrible at creating those big chunk plays. Look, 327 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 1: I spent an hour trying to figure this game out. 328 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: Every number I could find, you name it. Both teams 329 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: want to run it. I think Wisconsin will have a 330 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: little bit more success at doing that, frankly, but both 331 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 1: defenses are good enough to keep it contained and force 332 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: it to a battle of punts and field position. I 333 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: will go Wisconsin here, and I will go Wisconsin solely 334 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 1: because they're the home team. Yeah, it is not based 335 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: on any analysis. Do not read too deeply into anything 336 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: I've just said. I am going with the home team 337 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: here because I honestly don't know who I want to pick. 338 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: Wisconsin's played better competition thus far. I was a little 339 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: put off by what I saw. 340 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 2: By Michigan in the second half in that Rutgers game. 341 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 2: I really expected that Michigan was going to go in 342 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: there and just run all over Rutgers, and that didn't happen, 343 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,239 Speaker 2: it didn't happen. Maybe that says more about Rutgers than 344 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 2: it does Michigan. I don't know, but I'm just going 345 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 2: to go with the team that's more battle tested. I 346 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 2: feel like they know they have their backs to the 347 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 2: wall and they got to make a move here otherwise 348 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 2: it's going to be lights out really early for their 349 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 2: chance is in the Big ten. 350 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: You can at least lie to yourself. It is a lie. 351 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: You can lie to yourself. With Michigan, they're like, oh, 352 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: they didn't want to show too much against Rutgers ahead 353 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: of Wisconsin. That's a lie, right, Like a good Michigan 354 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: team doesn't have to reveal complicated rbos and trick plays. 355 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: They should just be able to score thirty against Rutgers. Now, 356 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: Wisconsin had to show whatever it needed to show against 357 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: Notre Dame Right and Penn State, so we kind of 358 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: know what Wisconsin's going to show in a big game. 359 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: That to me, if you are in intent, unlying to 360 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: yourself is another little nug But yeah, I yeah, this 361 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: is this is a best of bad decisions for me. 362 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: And you know, I guess you could go with the 363 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: home team with Wisconsin that there is that certain advantage, 364 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: I guess you'd think. And the weather looks like it's okay, 365 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: so there's not going to be It looked like it 366 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,119 Speaker 1: was raining, but now it's going to just sort of 367 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: be partly cloudy. So I'm just going to go in 368 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: a pick'em type scenario. I'm going to go with an 369 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: ability to lie to oneself more accurately with Michigan. 370 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 2: The final score in the Notre Dame Wisconsant game was 371 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 2: a bit misleading. That was a very close game until 372 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 2: Chris Tyree ran the kick back and then there were 373 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 2: two pick sixes to close it out. But Notre Dame 374 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 2: was really not getting much going offensively. 375 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: They had the special teams though, right, that's if you're 376 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: looking at the Margins teams. 377 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally get the logic one way or the other. Yeah, 378 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Wisconsin here, but I don't necessarily 379 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 2: disagree with you, So I'm not gonna yell at if 380 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 2: that's okay, okay, but we do disagree two thirty on 381 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: n b C Cincinnati minus two and a half on 382 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 2: the road at Notre Dame. Be advised Daniel that, as 383 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 2: a fellow YouTube TV subscriber, there is a chance, ever, 384 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 2: so slim this game may end up on peacock. 385 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: For people on YouTube TV or for everybody. 386 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 2: For people on YouTube TV, there is an ongoing contract 387 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 2: negotiation between the fine folks over at YouTube TV at 388 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 2: NBC Universal if they don't get it rectified by Friday. 389 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, but if I have one of those over the 390 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: air antenna mousepad type things. 391 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 2: I will be plugging it in just like you. 392 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, just making sure. 393 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 2: Okay, continue either way, Dan, Whatever the case, however, you 394 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 2: view this game, hunker down, prepare for three hours of 395 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,959 Speaker 2: reminders that Brian Kelly and new defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman 396 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 2: once also coached at Cincinnati. It's an announcer stat is that. 397 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 2: So this is the worst nightmare of my entire life. 398 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 2: You now having sound pads? But yes, yes, of course 399 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 2: be advised three hours of reminders from Mike Turrico and 400 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 2: everybody involved with this broadcast for NBC on Saturday. Okay, 401 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 2: why don't you go first? I have a lot to 402 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 2: say on this game. 403 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 1: I took Notre Dame at first glance, when I gathered 404 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: my thoughts, when I looked at some of the underlying numbers, 405 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: and rewatched a little bit of Notre Dame. I said, Okay, 406 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: Notre Dame's a home dog right against Cincinnati. And this 407 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: is a Notre Dame team whose defense has improved, probably 408 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: over the course of the season, each and every game 409 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: has improved on all three levels. And to get points 410 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 1: at home with a good defense, maybe not a great defense, 411 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: but a good to very good defense at its best, 412 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,439 Speaker 1: getting points at home that falls under belief system depending 413 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: on how difficult you feel Notre Dame Stadium is to 414 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: play in as a road team. But then another element 415 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: of my belief system popped up, and that is the 416 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: lro element luck running out Notre Dame, winning with chicken 417 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: wire and duct tape and turnovers and special teams and 418 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: sneaking by Toledo and letting Florida State come back and 419 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: letting Purdue hang around, and Cincinnati for its flaws, which 420 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: I think there are a some of the slow starts. 421 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: In the first half, it was I think seven all 422 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 1: it was very I think it was a tie game 423 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: against Murray State at halftime. It's one of those underlying 424 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: things like is Cincinnati excellent or as excellent as we 425 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: hope them to be. That concerns me. But I think 426 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: a game like this is probably kind of a David 427 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: Pollock game. It all starts up front, and I think 428 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: Cincinnati with their advantage along their defensive line against Notre 429 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: Dame's offensive line, which I just don't think you can 430 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: fix in a week or two. My Jay Sanders, Guys 431 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: like that that are going to be problems on the 432 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 1: edge for Notre Dame. They're beat up at left tackle 433 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: right Notre Dame, yep, I think that they're beat up 434 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:42,719 Speaker 1: at quarterbacks. So you have Jack Cone who's beat up. 435 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: I think Drew Pine is the number two this week. 436 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 1: And then I saw Pete Sampson was like, well, you 437 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: better get used to the possibility of another regular season 438 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: undefeated Notre Dame really really with this line? Okay, Okay, 439 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: I think he threw a little bit of gas into 440 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: the karma fire. And so I'm going to say. 441 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 2: You're putting this all on Pete. 442 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: Yes, we love Pete Sampson. Well, I was just thinking. 443 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 1: I was like, I like Notre Dame, but I have 444 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: to find reasons, okay. And it had difficulty that, like, 445 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: you can't run the ball with Kyen Williams and Chris Tyree. 446 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: You could lose in Pete's career with this, I know, 447 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 1: I know, and I don't like Pete as a friend 448 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: of the pod. We do really like Pete, but you 449 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: can't run the ball with Chris Tyree and Kyen Williams 450 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: and like I go and look at Notre Dame highlights 451 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: and everyone was like Kyen Williams really good blocking, Like, oh, 452 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: this is not a good sign against a good defense. 453 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: That they're running back is like good blocker, it's coming 454 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: for your nuts, which was an actual thing I saw. 455 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Cincinnati here. I think they're going to 456 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: run successfully against Notre Dame. I think we'll have a 457 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: nice game for Jerome Ford. I think they're going to 458 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: harass Jack Cohen or whoever's in a quarterback coming off 459 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: of the edge. And I like Cincinnati, even though they 460 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: haven't been crazy impressive this year. I think it's an 461 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 1: LRO spot and I'm going to go with I guess 462 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: Luke Fickle's knowledge of Marcus Freeman on some level, defensive 463 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: guy to defensive guy. I have Cincinnati winning this game 464 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: twenty one seventeen, interesting and covering. I get it, I 465 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: do get it, and going with the road favorite. Let 466 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 1: me take a knee here for a second and pay place. 467 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna do this, but all this talk about 468 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 1: Jack Cones got me a little worked up. I talk 469 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: about announcer tropes all the time. One of our favorite 470 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 1: things to do on this show. They're gonna talk a 471 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: lot about Cincinnati. The other thing that they're gonna do, 472 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: inevitably is they're gonna at some point force feed you 473 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: the idea that Jack Cone is playing. 474 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 2: Well, okay, right now, look, I I'll show my cards 475 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 2: here for a second. My highest level of football achievement 476 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 2: was being the starting quarterback for a co ed flag 477 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: football team that went to the semi finals of the 478 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 2: intramural League up at Penn State Warrior Warrior. And when 479 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 2: I played on the men's team, I was like a 480 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: halfway decent slot guy that was a Rondale or type. 481 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 2: All right, okay, that is my level of football acumen. 482 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 2: So please forgive my ignorance. Call me out if I 483 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 2: am wrong about this, Please per our very own Travis 484 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 2: May going out to soliverbal dot com read his sneaky 485 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 2: stats which he posts every Tuesday.

It's 489 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 2: not like you're proving somebody wrong. To the commentary man, 490 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 2: all about Jack Cone. Oh, Jack Cone. I listened to 491 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 2: you know, like six different guys talk him up. 492 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: You're talking about like play by play guys you're talking 493 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: about like Gus Johnson and like Mike Tarico. 494 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 2: Oh, try to it, Ryan Harris on the on the radio, 495 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 2: like everyone. Sorry, Jack Cone is the undisputed starter of 496 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 2: this football team. Ty. 497 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: Their their job is to sell you on staying on 498 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: that channel. 499 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: I am not there. I'm saying I'm not buying it. 500 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 2: I understand there is there is some real post traumatic 501 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 2: book disorder going on right now. Jack Cone is different. 502 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 2: Jack Cone is throwing the ball down the field. He's 503 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 2: staying in the pocket. He is doing things that I 504 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: think are very refreshing. I'm okay with Jack Cone. I 505 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 2: don't necessarily have a problem with Jack Cone. I'm getting 506 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 2: tired of being force fed this narrative though, that Jack 507 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 2: Cone is the only option for this team because he's 508 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: a veteran and he's got the experience and he's a 509 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 2: good leader and he's kind of like a quiet champion 510 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 2: for this team. I think we're at the point, given 511 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 2: where the offensive line is, that if you have a 512 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 2: guy who's not a statue back there, it might vot 513 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 2: a little bit better for the offense. And we might 514 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 2: find that out in this game. Now. I don't know 515 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 2: if Buckner's healthy. I don't know if Drew Pine is 516 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 2: going to get work. We'll find out in due time. 517 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 2: But I think that line we keep coming back to it. 518 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: You mentioned it, I've mentioned it the last couple of 519 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 2: weeks running here. When you go up against a good 520 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 2: team like Cincinnati, this is where it starts to show. 521 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 2: And if you've got a guy who can move around 522 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 2: back there, it just I think it makes the word 523 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,719 Speaker 2: the difference. This is the biggest game potentially in the 524 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: history of the Cincinnati football program. 525 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: I mean, they played Georgia in the Peach Bowl, right. 526 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, but this one counts for something. This one means something, 527 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 2: especially in an odd, chaotic year. I know we poo 528 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,439 Speaker 2: pooed the idea of Cincinnati making the playoff like a 529 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 2: week ago after what we saw go down in Week three. 530 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 2: It's there, man, It's on the table, whether we want 531 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 2: to believe it or not. My only reference point for 532 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 2: Cincinnati so far this season is at Indiana game. And 533 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 2: sure they look pretty awful for most of the first half. 534 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 2: They got the targeting call, and then they turned it 535 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 2: on in the second half. They eventually ended up pulling away, 536 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 2: but it was not like that was a dominant effort 537 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: for you know, a good chunk of that game. 538 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: Rest advantage to Cincinnati. Notre Dame's coming off of a 539 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,239 Speaker 1: very physical Wisconsin matchup. Cincinnati had a bye week. Now, 540 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: Cincinnati hasn't played a top sixty team. It's Miami, Ohio, 541 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: Indiana and Murray State. But that is an element. That's 542 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: my favorite word of the year. That is something and 543 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 1: by the way, just underlying numbers more about I guess 544 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 1: it's Notre Dame as a whole, if you're going to 545 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: include Drew Pine at this moment, but just their passing game. 546 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: Notre Dame's passing game this year ninety second success rate, 547 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: passing down success rate, so like second and long or 548 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: third and Long seventy first in the country. Third and 549 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: Long success rate ninety fourth, twenty one to the third. 550 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: But Jack coll he's good man he's good one out there. 551 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 2: Again, Let's do it. 552 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: There is no less successful team between the twenty one 553 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: and thirty of the of an opponent than Notre Dame 554 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,719 Speaker 1: eleven yard line to the twenty yard line ninety fourth, 555 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: inside the ten success rate ninety eighth. It's good to 556 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: have a trusted handout there, though, right, very good at 557 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: the goal line though. So Yeah, Eventually the issues along 558 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: the line are going to come back to haunt Notre Dame, 559 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: and this might be the best chance the rest of 560 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: the way for that happening because Cincinnati is very solid. 561 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 2: Flip side of things, des Ritter's very solid. He's not 562 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 2: the first round talent that some what have you believe, 563 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 2: but he's really good and he will give Notre Dame fits. 564 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 2: I went back and forth in this game a million times. 565 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 2: In the end, I think a little bit of my 566 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 2: Notre Dame bias is going to show here. I can't 567 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: see giving Notre Dame points at home, Okay, And I 568 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 2: still think I still think there is room for an 569 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 2: X factor, whether that's Drew Pine or Tyler Buckner in 570 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 2: his hamstring, whoever it ends up being, that can be 571 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 2: an X factor in this game. If they choose to 572 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: use it if it's available to them. I got Notre 573 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 2: Dame here. I think this is a good game. I'm 574 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 2: gonna say thirty one to twenty seven. 575 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: My question to you is, is Notre Dame's defense and 576 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: excuse me, is Notre Dame their team as a whole 577 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: in the present tense? Are they presently good or are 578 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: you thinking? Well? 579 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 2: I could see them being good. The defense is getting better. Yeah, yeah, 580 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 2: it is getting better every week. And I think as 581 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 2: a whole, I think the defense is fine. I think 582 00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 2: the defense is solid and it is getting better. The offense, 583 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 2: the line is a problem. The offense gave up six 584 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 2: sacks last week and couldn't run the ball. Remember, the 585 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 2: strength of this offense was supposed to be the ground game. 586 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 2: If that is not the case, we have to re 587 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 2: evaluate what we think of Notre Dame here. But thirty 588 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 2: one twenty seven, that's my pick. I'm going to go 589 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 2: Irish at home to win this game out right. Should 590 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 2: be a fun game. Two thirty NBC. However you tune 591 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: into NBC. 592 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: I'm excited for whoever. Notre Dame's next offensive coordinator is 593 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: to realize that with a bad offensive line, you gotta 594 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: get a killer screen game. RPOs. You gotta mask it. 595 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: You gotta make people forget. 596 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 2: You gotta move the pocket. You can't have a statue back. 597 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: Everybody remembers Notre Dames offensive line. 598 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: The line will be better in like a year or two, 599 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 2: It really will. But this is yeah, this is kind 600 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: of a an oddball year for Notre Dame. Will on 601 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 2: the line and they're just right. 602 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: We gotta move. We got two good offenses. Let's get 603 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: let's go in the other do three. 604 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 2: Thirty CBS All Miss on the road at Bama. Bama 605 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 2: is a fourteen and a half point home favorite. Fun 606 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 2: as hell. A year ago sixty three forty eight in 607 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 2: favor of Alabama, that game was close to fourteen hundred 608 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: total yards. This year, As you said before, we've got 609 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 2: both of the Heisman front runners right now, Matt Corral 610 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 2: a slight favorite over Bryce Young at time of recording. 611 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 2: That probably will change after we get done with Week five. 612 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 2: This one opened at seventeen and a half in favor 613 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 2: of Bama. It has come down. Eighty percent of the 614 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 2: money has come in on Ole Miss so far. Notable 615 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 2: here is that the point spread, though it's remained around 616 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 2: fourteen and a half. The over under has climbed. A 617 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 2: lot of folks hammering the over under. I think it's 618 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 2: all the way up to about seventy nine and a 619 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 2: half right now, hammering the over you're saying hammering the over. 620 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 2: Vegas is thinking shootout, and you know my belief system. 621 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 2: My belief system is if I'm getting more than a 622 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 2: touchdown and a shootout, I'm taking the points. So just 623 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 2: as a default position, I'm on Old Miss, I'm on 624 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 2: the points. I also kind of feel like this is 625 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 2: a bit of a rivalry to pseudo rivalry now that 626 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 2: we've got Lane Kiffin coaching ole Miss. I admire Lane 627 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 2: Kiffin's philosophy, Dan, I really do. I think they know 628 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 2: exactly what they are. They're very self aware. They're gonna 629 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 2: try to outscore you. Yeah, defense is very much okay, 630 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: just okay, do we even know? Do we even know? 631 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 2: They're very average at best? 632 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: It's Louisville, it's Tulane and who else did all Miss 633 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: play like they We don't actually know what Ole Miss 634 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: is or isn't at this point, and Austin p there's 635 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: your third team coming off of a buy. 636 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 2: Now, I think they just want to get a couple stops. 637 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 2: They're not looking to suffocate you. Whatever they get is gravy. 638 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 2: They're gonna try to outscore you. And so I think 639 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 2: as I try to evaluate this game, I'm looking at 640 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 2: stopping big plays. Whoever stops the most big plays, whoever 641 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,280 Speaker 2: gets the most big plays, let's say, is the one 642 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 2: that's gonna win this game. And right now, these teams 643 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 2: are about even in that department. So this game is 644 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 2: gonna be fun again. There's gonna be a lot of points. 645 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 2: I think this is the game of the week. I 646 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 2: am tempted to go old miss out right, Dan, I'm 647 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: very tempted to go oll miss out Wait wait, wait. 648 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: You're tempted to go ol. What is the money line 649 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: in this game? What kind of action can you get 650 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: on that? Uh? 651 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 2: Probably like three to one. 652 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: I haven't seen, but okay, ole miss, I'm looking it 653 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: up right now. Explain yourself. 654 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 2: This game was very close last year, okay, And I 655 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 2: feel like Lane Kiffin learned a lot from that matchup. 656 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 2: He's got a better team this year. And even though 657 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 2: Alabama is still very good, they are a little bit 658 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 2: more vulnerable. Still not a bad team by any stretch. 659 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 2: There's not like a major chink in the armor. But 660 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 2: this is a matchup. I think with a really good 661 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 2: quarterback with a high powered offense, can ole Miss go 662 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,560 Speaker 2: in there and outscore Alabama if anybody can. 663 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 1: Thirty, by the way, came down to plus four hundred 664 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: and five hundred. That's depending on where you look, but 665 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: it's somewhere between four and five hundred plus money. 666 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 2: I'm tempted to go ole Miss money line. I won't, 667 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 2: but I think this is a one score game one 668 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 2: way or the other. I think it's forty eight forty four. 669 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 2: I'm gonna take Bama outright, but I think ole Miss 670 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 2: easily covers fourteen and a half. 671 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: So ole Miss has been running it pretty well, and 672 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: that's largely Matt Corral Matt Corral early and I don't know, 673 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 1: depending on how you feel about Ontario Drummond, who's leading 674 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: ole Miss in yardage out wide as a as a 675 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: big number one option, I just don't think Ole Miss 676 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: is at the moment where they were at receiver and 677 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: tight end these past few years, you know, especially going 678 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: back to Evan Ingraman, guys like that that really got 679 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: under you know. The Alabama defense is craw I don't 680 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: hate your line of things in terms of value, but 681 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 1: this is still a fourteen to fifteen points spread. 682 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 2: Now. 683 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,799 Speaker 1: I think the case for ole Miss keeping it significantly 684 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,959 Speaker 1: closer than that is Alabama just isn't where they were 685 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: last year, which last year was a generational, if not 686 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 1: all time historically efficient scoring offense. Right, So, you have 687 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: a first year starter who's much younger and has had 688 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: nearly the time in the system that Mac Jones had. 689 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 1: You have good receivers like Jamison Williams, really really good. 690 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: You have good running backs. You don't have a game 691 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,879 Speaker 1: changer like Najie Harris at the moment. The offensive line 692 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 1: has been inconsistent this year. They're beat up on the edge. 693 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: On defense, I think the linebacking corps is better. I 694 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: think there's talent on all three levels. Think there's depth 695 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 1: on all three levels of this defense. My problem with 696 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 1: ole Miss is largely Alabama's ability to move the ball 697 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 1: against this defense, because while I think they're improved, I 698 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 1: think they're a little bit it's a bit overstated that 699 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,320 Speaker 1: they've solved things on defense at this moment. 700 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 2: Does that matter? 701 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:54,439 Speaker 1: Though? 702 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 2: Are you looking? Are you looking at this game and 703 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,919 Speaker 2: you're saying, wow, oh man, I don't their defense really 704 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 2: troubles me because like. 705 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 1: They can't they can't stop the run as impressibly as 706 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: I would have hoped. But yeah, continue, But like, I'm 707 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: not looking at this game and even factoring in Old 708 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: missus defense. I'm looking at this and saying, can Alabama's 709 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 1: defense stop the Old Miss offense? I don't think Ole 710 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: Miss cares. 711 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 2: If they can stop Alabama. They can get a stop 712 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 2: or two, great, force a punt once or twice, that's great. 713 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 2: They're gonna try to score in every possession, and for me, 714 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 2: it's a more question. We all do TI well, but 715 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 2: Ole Miss can do it. 716 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: I know. I understand. That's why Macral is really good. 717 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 1: Macral has not played a good team this year, so 718 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: it's TBD. 719 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 2: At least. 720 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: Here's the other thing. If you are intent on scoring 721 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: a ton of points, so many points in fact, that 722 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 1: you beat Alabama, it helps to not be the most 723 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 1: penalized team in America, which Ole Miss happens to be 724 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 1: right now in terms of penalty yardage per game. I 725 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,240 Speaker 1: know that opening that opener against Louisville was particularly ugly 726 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 1: and skews that number a bit but in terms of 727 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 1: giving away yards, giving away field position, I'd like I'd 728 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: like a more disciplined team. If I'm taking a team 729 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 1: outright or to cover, I'm gonna give those points. At home, 730 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give those two touchdowns. I think Ole Miss 731 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: is good, but I still think there's a considerable distance, 732 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 1: and I think Alabama's more tested that they can react 733 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,760 Speaker 1: in more interesting ways. They held on against Florida. I'm 734 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: gonna go with Alabama here to win this game. I 735 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 1: don't know. Forty one twenty four, wow, holding over the 736 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,879 Speaker 1: now twenty four points, fifty one thirty four. 737 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 2: Gotta bump that up a little. That's fifty one to 738 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 2: thirty four, three point thirty on ABC, Your Oregon Ducks 739 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 2: the Eugene mud Hens on the road, an eight point 740 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 2: favorite at Stanford. Have you looked at Stanford's efficiency numbers, Dan, 741 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:03,280 Speaker 2: I've watched Stanford football and look at their efficiency numbers. Yes, 742 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:08,880 Speaker 2: their efficiency numbers are comically bad. Yes, they're the second 743 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 2: least efficient rushing team in the nation, almost equally as 744 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 2: bad at stopping the run. Per the numbers I'm seeing, 745 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 2: Stanford is also projected to lose all eight of their 746 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: remaining games, and that includes five by double digits, including 747 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 2: this one. 748 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 1: And they're beat up on both sides of the ball, and. 749 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 2: They're beat up, so in theory, that should be a 750 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 2: big advantage for your mud hints. Why is this not 751 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 2: a double digit spread? Why isn't the point spread higher 752 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 2: than e. 753 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: They came back and tied it late against Ucla. They 754 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 1: forced Ucla to beat them late, They generated some big plays. 755 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: Tanner McKee didn't start and play a majority of that 756 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 1: Kansas State game, and so I don't know that they're 757 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: beating that healthy Kansas State team, but that game is 758 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: looking a lot more competitive. I think with Tanner McKee 759 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 1: at quarterback. Oregon doesn't is not a team that covers games. 760 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 1: Like Mario Cristobal, I think has only lost one game 761 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: at home. Now this game is in Palo Alto, but 762 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 1: he's only lost one game at home, and that was 763 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 1: to Stanford in that crazy fumble and going forward and 764 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: fumbling it one more time game against Stanford. They're better 765 00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: on the road. I think they have a blow average 766 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,920 Speaker 1: quarterback in Anthony Brown. I think he can make plays, 767 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 1: but in terms of actually like beating like Oregon just 768 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: plays down to teams they're also very beat up at linebacker. 769 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: They make mistakes, they make mental errors. It's a good team, 770 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: it's a really good team. But against a good quarterback 771 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: who might be able to pick on this defense a 772 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 1: little bit. We saw Arizona move the ball a good 773 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 1: amount against this Oregon team last week. I just I 774 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 1: think there are rightful concerns. I happen to think it's 775 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 1: an especially good matchup for Oregon so because of their 776 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: ability to move the ball on the ground against this 777 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:01,120 Speaker 1: Stanford defense. And Oregon come to play in bigger games, 778 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,479 Speaker 1: and I think this is one of the bigger games 779 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: on their schedule. Again, better on the road. We saw 780 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: it against Ohio State, We've seen it against USC. They're 781 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,320 Speaker 1: just better away from Eugene. Under Mario Cristobal. They just 782 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: seem to be more locked in. 783 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 2: Which is crazy, so totally crazy, but it's wild. Again, 784 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 2: if you go based on the numbers, Stanford cannot stop 785 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 2: to run. Oregon could go out there and run the 786 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 2: wildcat and cover this point spread per some of the 787 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:27,760 Speaker 2: efficiency numbers. 788 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: But again, it was a game. Was Zach Charboney running 789 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,919 Speaker 1: for two hundred yards last week? It was a full 790 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 1: on game. Later on in the fourth quarter. 791 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 2: I don't know out look, if I'm wrong, I already 792 00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 2: said I don't know what I'm doing this week. I'm 793 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 2: all over the map. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, But 794 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 2: I'm laying the points here with Oregon. I agree with you. 795 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 2: Oregon looks like they're head and shoulders above Stanford and 796 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 2: all the numbers that I think will matter in this game. 797 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 2: So let's go Duck's minus the eight. 798 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: I'm going to agree. And one of the things that 799 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 1: has really helped out Oregon is they've been a sensational 800 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: turnover team. Now there is a randomness two turnovers, but 801 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: they've made the most of interceptible balls and fumbles. And 802 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: Cavon Thibodeau is even healthier. He didn't play all that 803 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,319 Speaker 1: much against Arizona. He's expected to be much more of 804 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,439 Speaker 1: a full go guy, and so if he is unblockable, 805 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: you know, the strip sacks, the fumbles, whatever could could 806 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 1: be adding up. But uh yeah, I'm a little bit worried, 807 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 1: but I think this is a good spot for Oregon, 808 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: So I agree. And another warning, it's a Rod Gilmore game, 809 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: and I'm just not a Gilmore guy, not ail. No, 810 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: maybe it's a varsity app Game of the week right 811 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: where you can get a local radio local radio feed 812 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: to UH to accompany you during a matchup. 813 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,760 Speaker 2: So just be fore warned. Three point thirty on Fox, 814 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 2: We've got Oklahoma ten and a half points the road 815 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 2: favorite going to Kansas State. This is a revenge spot 816 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 2: for Oklahoma. It looks shaky in three of their four 817 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 2: games so far this season, but revenge spot they lost 818 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 2: last year, they lost the year before. Case States had 819 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 2: a bit of their number here over the last two seasons, 820 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,840 Speaker 2: and Case States at home now. Case State is not 821 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,879 Speaker 2: without their own issues. But we'll focus on Oklahoma here 822 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,320 Speaker 2: for a second, because obviously it's a pretty big talking point. 823 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 2: We are four games into this college football season and 824 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 2: A Watson said about Oklahoma's lack of explosiveness the big plays. 825 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,720 Speaker 2: I looked at the numbers. The numbers are striking, especially 826 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 2: if you compare to previous seasons. It is Wisconsin level 827 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 2: bad for Oklahoma. And I'm not saying that for a 828 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 2: quick joke. It is literally about the same as Wisconsin 829 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,760 Speaker 2: so far this season. Part of that's the run game. Okay, 830 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 2: it's not been as effective, but it's mostly in the 831 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 2: passing game. Last season Theo Weese, we had Marvin Mims, 832 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 2: Charleston Ramb, Austin Stoner, all those guys over eleven air 833 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 2: yards per target correct. All of them were double digits 834 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 2: this year, among the top four being Jaden Hazelwood, Mary Williams, 835 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 2: Mike Woods, and Marvin Mims. Only Mims has fourteen point 836 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 2: three and the next closest is seven point two. That 837 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 2: may not sound like much, It might sound like a 838 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,959 Speaker 2: bunch of mumbo jumbo. I what do I care about 839 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 2: something like that. It's just one data point, but this 840 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 2: is an offense that is supposed to be explosive, and 841 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 2: there are a number of other indicators, not just air 842 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 2: yards that's my personal favorite. But there's a bunch of 843 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,760 Speaker 2: stuff here underlying numbers indicating that it's not just a fluke. 844 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:40,919 Speaker 2: So yeah, if you ask me, am I worried about 845 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 2: Oklahoma's offense, I'm worried about the offense because they have 846 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 2: not been able to do the one thing dan the 847 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 2: one thing that they're better at than most everybody. They 848 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 2: have not been able to do it this year, and 849 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 2: so you factor that in. I also think they've kind 850 00:44:56,120 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 2: of been sheepish. Chris Climb has been sheepish about whether 851 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: or not we're going to see skyl Or Thompson. Originally 852 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 2: he had the knee injury. They thought he was going 853 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: to be down for the year, but he was out 854 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 2: in the field last week moving around throwing the ball. 855 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 2: Actually looked pretty good. If it turns out he plays 856 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 2: in this game, if he's able to run it, that 857 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 2: could be a difference. I just I kind of like 858 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 2: KSE State again here, man. I think they know how 859 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:26,840 Speaker 2: to play Oklahoma. I think Oklahoma's going a bit against 860 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 2: the grain at the moment, trying to figure out their 861 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 2: own offense. Eventually, maybe they will get their act together, 862 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 2: but just so much of a headwind right now, going 863 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 2: to Manhattan, which is historically just a weird place to 864 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,760 Speaker 2: play to begin with. I'm going k State outright again. 865 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 2: I'll say thirty one State hour. 866 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,719 Speaker 1: What if Skyler Thompson doesn't play and Will Howard was 867 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: beat up, they have to go to the third string. 868 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: It doesn't bother you, It doesn't move you. Yeah, quarterback questions. 869 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 2: It moves me. But I think KSE State is average 870 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 2: enough on defense, and they've been able to win this 871 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 2: game the last two years with having an aur enough defense. 872 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,040 Speaker 2: That I'm going kse State outright. 873 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can go that far. I 874 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: definitely think Oklahoma is trying to tell us something. They're like, well, guys, 875 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 1: were not the same as normal. 876 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 2: They're blinking in the hostage video. 877 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm digging Case State as well. I hate that 878 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: I'm doing it. I hate that Oklahoma is secretly kind 879 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 1: of like defense and ball control at this point, Like 880 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 1: they're not running the ball that well, but they're moving 881 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: it nickel and diming shorter passes. The screen games, Okay, 882 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,720 Speaker 1: they just don't have anything over the top consistently. Spencer 883 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 1: Ratler is accurate enough, but he's made some mistakes. I 884 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: just I think Kansas State's good at the line of 885 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: scrimmage and they have an interesting, crazy good weapon at 886 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 1: times induced Vawn. I worry about quarterback health though. That's 887 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 1: the problem to me. So I guess Kansas State, if 888 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:53,359 Speaker 1: you're thinking out right, are they not your home dog 889 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 1: of the week, the. 890 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 2: Yers home dog of the wee. 891 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,239 Speaker 1: I love the confidence. See here's the thing. You came 892 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 1: out and said you were not all that confident, and 893 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 1: then with a quarterback issue, you still think Kansas State's 894 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 1: winning this game. Outright. So maybe I'm taking all the 895 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 1: credit for the altar of Dan, but the totem of tie. 896 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 1: You're putting the bricks down, Like maybe it's late in 897 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: the schedule, So I appreciate that. I think Kansastate covers 898 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: this spread, but I don't think they have the pop 899 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 1: to score. Like, how many points does it take to 900 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: beat Oklahoma outright in twenty twenty. 901 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:31,439 Speaker 2: It might be twenty four. 902 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna say twenty four to twenty eight points. Yeah, 903 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 1: I still think that's a lot. I still think that's 904 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 1: a lot if they have offensive health issues. So I 905 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 1: think they lose this game by a touchdown. I have 906 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 1: this game at twenty seven to twenty Oklahoma so to 907 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: get over their losing streak against the Cats. Big big 908 00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 1: turnover ratio, by the way, turnover margin advantage for Oklahoma. 909 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:58,640 Speaker 2: Here seven pm ESPN two Baylor at Oklahoma State. Oklahoma 910 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 2: State and a half points the favorite. This game's a 911 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:02,759 Speaker 2: nightmare for me. 912 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: This one's tough. I went back and forth. This was 913 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,840 Speaker 1: a pick and deleite, pick and deleite. 914 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,560 Speaker 2: I took a dump on Baylor in the preseason, and 915 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,760 Speaker 2: then I picked him out right and I got lucky 916 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 2: because it actually worked. I'm not going to profess to 917 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 2: being any kind of prognosticator. I got lucky. Yeah, Baylor 918 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 2: played well, but I got lucky. And then I was 919 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,360 Speaker 2: down on Oklahoma State all year and I was drawing 920 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 2: weird Susan Boyle references and Spencer Sanders and all these things. 921 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 2: Then they looked good last week. He got a receiver back, 922 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 2: he threw for three forty four, whatever it was. They 923 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,360 Speaker 2: actually looked pretty good going into this game. I have 924 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 2: no idea what the right read is. I don't feel 925 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 2: like I have a good sense for the pulse of 926 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 2: the Big twelve, and so that's why it's even more 927 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,399 Speaker 2: comical that I would go Case State outright over over Oklahoma. 928 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 2: We're going to talk about Texas TCU briefly. I have 929 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 2: no idea what direction it goes there. Do you have 930 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 2: any kind of read on this game. I hate that 931 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 2: I'm going. 932 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 1: Baylor, but I am, and I'm sure Baylor people hate 933 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 1: that I'm going Baylor as well. Yeah, it was in 934 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: a game where I go back and forth and I 935 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: start looking at the margins, and Baylor's a much stronger 936 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 1: special teams team as we saw last week. In their 937 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:24,280 Speaker 1: return game Oklahoma State, kicking Oklahoma State, and their ability 938 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: to get better over the course of a game offensively, 939 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,760 Speaker 1: as we saw these last couple of weeks, not scoring 940 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,280 Speaker 1: in the second halves of either of these games. Spencer 941 00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,720 Speaker 1: Sanders has been mistake prone overall, and now playing against 942 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: this is you know, David rand is not playing eleven positions. 943 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: But the Baylor, the Baylor defense, I think is I mean, 944 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,399 Speaker 1: they've played a team, They've played one team this year 945 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,400 Speaker 1: in Iowa State. But I believe the Baylor defense to 946 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:51,240 Speaker 1: be maximized to be doing a good job of getting 947 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: to their ceiling. They run the ball, They've been able 948 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,240 Speaker 1: to control clock a little bit. I do like John Abram, 949 00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm going Baylor here. I think it's another lro situation. 950 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 1: To win two games in a row without scoring in 951 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 1: the second half. There is that hang on ability that 952 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,720 Speaker 1: I don't love. I don't think that's an actual skill. 953 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 1: If you need to hang on against Boise State and 954 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,840 Speaker 1: a beat up k State team, I'm a little bit worried. 955 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 1: I think Baylor's fine. I do not think they're a 956 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 1: really good team. I think they're fine, but I think 957 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State is flawed and so I think it's a 958 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 1: nice matchup that Baylor can again win this game on 959 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 1: the margins. So I'm going Bears here on the road, 960 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 1: hate it. 961 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 2: Hate it. My initial read was to go Pokes, thinking 962 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 2: that Baylor's on the road after a big home win 963 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 2: over Iowa State and that maybe there'd be a bit 964 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 2: of a letdown here. But I feel like everything that 965 00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 2: I have read, everything that I have read is on Baylor, 966 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 2: and Oklahoma State has issues kicking field goals as well. 967 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 2: By the way, two of five is Alex Hale. So 968 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 2: if you go back and forth, I'm just saying kicking issues, 969 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 2: return issues. The punt return game has been bad, like 970 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 2: there's just there's tiny little factors. And Oklahoma States also 971 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 2: banged up along the defensive line. Sure, on top of 972 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 2: the fact that Baylor was better in the trenches to 973 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,040 Speaker 2: begin with, I think they were better in the trenches 974 00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 2: going into this game. So I've waffled back and forth. 975 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 2: I think what I'm gonna do now on from here 976 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:21,280 Speaker 2: on out on the Big twelve side is that whatever 977 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 2: my initial impression is. 978 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 1: If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite 979 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 1: would have to be right. 980 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 2: Whatever the initial impression is I'm going the other directions, 981 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,200 Speaker 2: So let's go Baylor outright? 982 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 1: We agree, yeah, and this is going to go. It'll 983 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 1: speak volumes about Dave Randa's coaching ability coming off of 984 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 1: his signature win for Baylor against Iowa State last week. 985 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:45,600 Speaker 1: It's a big letdown spot going to a tough place 986 00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,480 Speaker 1: to play against a good defense, coming off of a 987 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 1: huge program, hopefully building win for Baylor. This is a 988 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:56,440 Speaker 1: very easy game to get to, sort of get distracted 989 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 1: by after that the Iowa State wins, So looking forward 990 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:01,799 Speaker 1: to sing how Baylor responds. 991 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 2: And finally ten thirty FS one Arizona State three point 992 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 2: underdog on the road at UCLA. You read the stat 993 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 2: last week from the Great College Football Reddit community PAC 994 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 2: twelve after dark underdogs are sixteen and two versus the 995 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,239 Speaker 2: point spread. Do you have a reason to not go 996 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 2: ASU here? 997 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:27,239 Speaker 1: Yes? 998 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 2: What is it? 999 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:31,280 Speaker 1: I think UCLA is better at playing college football? Okay, 1000 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: that's my reason. Also, I mentioned the ole misstat about 1001 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: the most penalized team in America in terms of yardage 1002 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: per game. ASU is right there at one twenty nine. 1003 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,600 Speaker 1: And so there is that part of me that thinks, okay, 1004 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,279 Speaker 1: UCLA has to act together now Dorian Thompson Robinson was 1005 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,360 Speaker 1: limping around, and so there's that issue with the offense 1006 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:52,320 Speaker 1: and to squeak by not squeak by. They won by eleven, 1007 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 1: but you know, to get that much out of Zach 1008 00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:57,799 Speaker 1: Charbonnet and still not separate from a Stanford team that 1009 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 1: has its own issues. Now, the problem with ASU is 1010 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: ASU on the road. Granted it was at elevation. You know, 1011 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 1: we're big believers as we pull this train at the 1012 00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 1: elevation station that that plays a part. So they struggle 1013 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 1: against BYU. There's the mistake laden game. I think Jayden 1014 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 1: Daniels has two touchdown passes to three interceptions. I believe 1015 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: that's his ratio at the moment. So ASU's passing game, 1016 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 1: which I believe is how you actually beat UCLA. I 1017 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 1: believe if you're able to block UCLA off the edge, 1018 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 1: which is a big if they've got some guys there 1019 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 1: that you can get over on UCLA through the air. Okay, 1020 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: I don't see a go to receiver right now for ASU. 1021 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:34,839 Speaker 1: I think they're leading receivers are running back. You can 1022 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 1: check on this, you can fact check all this, should 1023 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 1: you choose. I just I don't think ASU is specifically 1024 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:45,120 Speaker 1: built with a consistently scary passing game or at least 1025 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,799 Speaker 1: largely scary passing game to beat UCLA. Now, maybe it's 1026 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:52,280 Speaker 1: a letdown situation after Ucla on the road beat Stanford. 1027 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 1: I just don't think that's the case. I think there 1028 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 1: is a big advantage in Chip Kelly and the offensive 1029 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 1: coaching staff against ASU right now in herm Edwards, So 1030 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,759 Speaker 1: I think ASU is merely fine. I think UCLA is 1031 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:08,240 Speaker 1: good with its own issues, but I think they're good, 1032 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 1: Like I don't know if it's still the case, but 1033 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,359 Speaker 1: I know going into last week, DTR was the most 1034 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 1: efficient passing quarterback in the Pac twelve. But if you 1035 00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 1: watch DTR, you're like, I don't even know if he 1036 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 1: should be starting for a good team. And maybe there 1037 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,439 Speaker 1: is a smoke and mirrors element I think. I think 1038 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: Tyler Schuck for a large large part of last season 1039 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 1: was the best quarterback just by numbers in the Pac twelve, 1040 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 1: and Oregon ended up not wanting to start him, And 1041 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 1: so yeah, it's sort of you take the good, you 1042 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 1: take the bad, you take DTR. I just I find 1043 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 1: myself shying away from more about ASU than I am 1044 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: from UCLA. So at home. The line actually seems a 1045 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 1: little low to me, which is scary. I'm just not 1046 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:54,319 Speaker 1: an ASU believer, I suppose. I guess that's that's what 1047 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:55,319 Speaker 1: it all boils down to. 1048 00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to go back to our boy, Travis may 1049 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 2: sneaky stats every Tuesday soliverble dot com. Arizona State quietly 1050 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 2: ranks eighth and yards per play differential among all FBS 1051 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 2: college football teams. Yeah, they've outgained every single opponent this 1052 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 2: season in both total yards and yards per play, even 1053 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,240 Speaker 2: against BYU. The game that they lost, they outgained BYU 1054 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 2: by Is that a good thing? Though? 1055 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: Does that seek well of a team? That they out 1056 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 1: gain a team and lose by ten speaks a sort 1057 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: of bad coaching and undisciplined football, doesn't it? 1058 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,960 Speaker 2: Absolutely? But I'm just going to gravitate towards that one 1059 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 2: thing because I'm looking for a reason to go points here. 1060 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:38,359 Speaker 2: So okay, no, that's fine, I'll go ASU, even though 1061 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 2: I left them for dead after they did me dirty. 1062 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:44,359 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ASU plus the points here. 1063 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 1: ASU has played one top fifty squad and that was BYU. 1064 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,160 Speaker 1: They lose by ten Southern Utah UNLV. Would you know 1065 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 1: be among the worst FBS teams. Colorado is by far. 1066 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 1: Maybe not by far, yeah, by far. Arizona kept it 1067 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 1: pretty close against Oregon Pac twelve team, So I don't 1068 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: know how much we actually can glean from ASU September. 1069 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: But it's not the prettiest, Dan. 1070 00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:12,560 Speaker 2: We're gonna go rapid fire, rapid fire. We got a 1071 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 2: bunch of other games here that I want to talk about. 1072 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,799 Speaker 2: Let's just get the road runner mentality on here. Let's 1073 00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,320 Speaker 2: go to Friday night, if we travel back in time, 1074 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 2: but better better a PMFS one Iowa minus four on 1075 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 2: the road at Maryland, Dan, who you got? 1076 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: I am taking the team that I fear. I fear 1077 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 1: the turtle. Come on, ti. Iowa is fielding among its 1078 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,840 Speaker 1: worst offenses of the past decade this year. They're winning 1079 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 1: with defense and incredible defense and turnovers. And I think 1080 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 1: at a certain point this is going to be the 1081 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 1: best defense that Iowa will have faced. Well, Iowa states, 1082 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,879 Speaker 1: but this is a good defense at home Friday night, 1083 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: eight pm, under the lights, emotion, excitement, a good quarterback, 1084 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 1: int Latanga Bai looa good receivers. Not only are they 1085 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,879 Speaker 1: my home dog of the week, Maryland is my lock 1086 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 1: of the week tie block of the week. 1087 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 2: Maybe get something at Ben's Chili Bowl. Maybe going over 1088 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:13,399 Speaker 2: the Stuggies in Baltimore, Dan. They do a crab mac 1089 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:17,040 Speaker 2: and cheese dog that I'm told is delightful. I am 1090 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 2: also on the Maryland Terrapins fear the Turtle Dan. Obvious 1091 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 2: look ahead spot for Iowa going back home next week, 1092 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:31,520 Speaker 2: big game against Penn State. Yep, Friday night lights at Maryland. 1093 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 2: They're going to be fired up. I also think they 1094 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 2: can get after Spencer Peatris. Yeah. 1095 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 1: I mean the strength of their defense is their ability 1096 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 1: to rush the passer and play the pass. And I 1097 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: think Petrice is a low average quarterback at this moment. 1098 00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 1: And I have the Catalyst food truck over there in 1099 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:47,640 Speaker 1: Silver Stae. 1100 00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:49,480 Speaker 2: Okay, it's a good one too, Dog, It's a very 1101 00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 2: good one too. Twelve o'clock ABC on Saturday, Texas on 1102 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 2: the road at TCU. They are favored by four and 1103 00:57:56,920 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 2: a half. Again, no idea which direction on this one here. 1104 00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 2: I am gonna play Texas in this game. I think 1105 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 2: TCU's defense has been really bad, really bad, especially at 1106 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:11,240 Speaker 2: stopping the run. And that's good news for Steve Sarkisian 1107 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 2: and Casey Thompson and certainly for Bejeon Robinson. So give 1108 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 2: me Texas minus whatever. 1109 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:21,560 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty, nineteen, twenty seventeen, twenty sixteen, twenty fifteen, twenty fourteen, 1110 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: twenty twelve, the field was painted purple. Tie. This is 1111 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 1: when you choose to turn against TCU. When they play Texas. 1112 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 1: They're dead to me, the only time you should feel 1113 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 1: good about TCU. 1114 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 2: Dead to me, Tie. 1115 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 1: You know this. 1116 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:41,360 Speaker 2: In a changing world, Ty, we need to lean on 1117 00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 2: all we can depend I need to take that soundpad 1118 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 2: away from you. What we know to be true? Oh God? 1119 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,520 Speaker 1: And what do we know to be true? We know 1120 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: that the frogs own the horns. 1121 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:52,960 Speaker 2: We just do. 1122 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 1: That's the blanket that keeps us warm in this sometimes 1123 00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 1: very cold. 1124 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 2: Stop a piano music. I'm gonna bry. 1125 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 1: I'm taking TCU here. I think this is the precise 1126 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,640 Speaker 1: moment to think in Texas. I believe has Oklahoma a 1127 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 1: little bit of let down, look ahead dropping seventy on 1128 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,680 Speaker 1: Texas Tech now, and they're not gonna look ahead of TCU. 1129 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: They lose to TCU every year. But there's something about 1130 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 1: this week and the game is in Fort Worth, correct, m. 1131 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 1: So you're taking Texas with Sark as a road favorite. 1132 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:29,720 Speaker 1: Now Sark has lost to TCU in his life as 1133 00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 1: a Texas head coach. It's unfair to put this all 1134 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 1: on him. But at the same time, the college football 1135 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,040 Speaker 1: universe is bigger than Sark. I'm going frogs here, Tye. 1136 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 1: They are my home dog of the week another word 1137 00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:45,240 Speaker 1: for word, a double home. I'll do all over the 1138 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 1: place tie home dog of the week now because not 1139 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:52,439 Speaker 1: only is it a home dog, which, by the way, 1140 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 1: nearly famous Burger is over there in Arlington, just outside 1141 00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: of Fort Worth, but because it's a let down look 1142 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:59,080 Speaker 1: ahead sandwich spot. To me, you can go to the 1143 00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Meat Board or Colossal Sandwiches for sandwiches in the Greater 1144 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Forworth area. 1145 01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 2: Twelve o'clock ACC Network Pitt minus three on the road 1146 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:11,120 Speaker 2: at Georgia Tech, Dan, I am going Pitt. I think 1147 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 2: Tech is plucky. I think they're gonna jump up and 1148 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 2: get somebody this year. I don't think it's gonna be PITT. 1149 01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 2: I like the Panthers. 1150 01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 1: What is it that you like about Pitt though? 1151 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 2: I like that they're a veteran team with a good quarterback. 1152 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 2: I feel better about the fact that they scored seventy 1153 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 2: seven points last week. I'll be it against New Hampshire. Yep, 1154 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:34,320 Speaker 2: i'llbe it against New Hampshire. I think Pitt is a 1155 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 2: good team that we probably won't talk enough about this year. 1156 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 1: Patnardoozy is six and two as a road favorite since 1157 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, So there is that pitt sneaks by Tennessee. 1158 01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:51,640 Speaker 1: Pitt loses to Western Michigan. I don't know what part 1159 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 1: of Pitt you're thinking is good, but those are underlying 1160 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 1: results that might suggest that they're merely Okay, I'm all in. 1161 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm enthusiastic. I'm going all in with Georgia Tech as 1162 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 1: another home dog, not my home dog of the week, 1163 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 1: but I'm going that's that's my belief system once again, 1164 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: to go with a home dog with a good defense, 1165 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 1: not necessarily a difficult place to play. 1166 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:12,919 Speaker 2: But is it the second part of that, a good 1167 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 2: defense and a good quarterback? 1168 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 1: I think? I mean Jeff Simms had a nice game 1169 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 1: last week? Did he not? 1170 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 2: All right? Whatever, let's move on. 1171 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:22,720 Speaker 1: Hot dog pets, hot dog petes for. 1172 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 2: If you know what that is. Louisville on the road 1173 01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 2: at Wake. Wake is a six and a half point favorite. 1174 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 2: I think we can move past this one where both wake. 1175 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 1: Watchers here at the soliverbol we are absolutely undefeated wake 1176 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:38,320 Speaker 1: watchers at least eight and no wake watchers. I'm going 1177 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 1: wake here. They just they have their act together. They 1178 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: absolutely have their act together. And Louisville is just a 1179 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 1: team that doesn't. 1180 01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:48,080 Speaker 2: They do not. They do not. 1181 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:50,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, by the way, I think TCU will run all 1182 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 1: over Texas. I didn't give an actual football reason. I 1183 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:53,920 Speaker 1: think tc is gonna have a nice time on the 1184 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 1: ground with Zach Evans. 1185 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:59,000 Speaker 2: Continue Ohio State minus fifteen on the road at Rutgers. 1186 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 2: For Rutgers here playing Michigan in Ohio State and back 1187 01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:05,920 Speaker 2: to back weeks. Next week They've got Michigan State. Kyle 1188 01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:10,840 Speaker 2: McCord has been named the starter for Ohio State. Last 1189 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:15,040 Speaker 2: year this game or moving forward for this game. Interesting 1190 01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,000 Speaker 2: Last year Ohio State won this one by twenty two 1191 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 2: at home with a much better team. I'm gonna say 1192 01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 2: Rutgers Rutgers plus the number eight if I am forced 1193 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 2: to pick, They're not winning out right, but plus the number, 1194 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:28,360 Speaker 2: I'll go Rutgers. 1195 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 1: Is Kyle McCord a true freshman Yep, he is a 1196 01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:40,439 Speaker 1: true freshman Okay from Philly. I believe Saint Jose yep 1197 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 1: betting against another local youth football legend, Tyler Branton. Kyle 1198 01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 1: McCord always group together. I'm going Ohio State here. In 1199 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:50,960 Speaker 1: order to beat Ohio State or hang with Ohio State, 1200 01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 1: you need to score points. That is not what Rutgers does. 1201 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:55,640 Speaker 1: They're led much more so by their defense. I think 1202 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:59,360 Speaker 1: Ohio State is slowly thawing on offense. BA with CJ. Strotter, 1203 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 1: Kyle McCord, I go Ohio State. What'd you say the. 1204 01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 2: Number was at last ten fifteen? 1205 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 1: I think they went by three touchdowns. 1206 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:09,880 Speaker 2: Plus six pm ESPN Florida minus eight on the road 1207 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 2: at Kentucky. Will Levis's back, Baby, he is back. That's 1208 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 2: why I'm going to Florida. Florida minus the number. 1209 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm going Florida minus the number as well. The turnover 1210 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 1: scare me actually from both of these quarterbacks. I think 1211 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:27,840 Speaker 1: both of them have thrown five picks. But Kentucky's offense 1212 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 1: is not as dynamic as I wish I had hoped 1213 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 1: I had believed. I don't know what my English is here, 1214 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 1: but early on in the season, I'm going with Florida 1215 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 1: here to run all over Kentucky. 1216 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:41,720 Speaker 2: Seven PMSCC network. Mississippi State at Texas A and M. 1217 01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:45,440 Speaker 2: A and M favored by seven, which feels like entirely 1218 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 2: too much came down from about nine though, right came down, Yeah, 1219 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 2: came down. The state of A and M's offense right 1220 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 2: now leaves much to be desired. I think for that reason, 1221 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:00,960 Speaker 2: I would favor Mississippi State, but I don't love the 1222 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:03,720 Speaker 2: matchup for them either, So I went back and forth 1223 01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 2: on this one. I settled on Mississippi State. I could 1224 01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:07,920 Speaker 2: be talked into A and. 1225 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:12,800 Speaker 1: M by the way you spoke of devalueing Clemson. So 1226 01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:16,439 Speaker 1: do we up value Mississippi State for beating NC State? 1227 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what our word is. What's the opposite 1228 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:19,560 Speaker 1: of the value. 1229 01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 2: Do we justify the value it appreciated in value it 1230 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 2: appreciated it? 1231 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 1: But I don't. But Mississippi State then look terrible at 1232 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 1: times against LSU. So I don't know how we feel 1233 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 1: about this. We've been talking about it on Slack. Everybody sucks, Yeah, 1234 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:37,600 Speaker 1: every I don't think everybody sucks. I just think it's 1235 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:40,800 Speaker 1: it's a snapchat Saturday every week. It doesn't matter what 1236 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 1: you Yeah, it's all ephemeral. I have Mississippi State here, 1237 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 1: and I hate that I do because I don't like 1238 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:54,320 Speaker 1: Mississippi State's ability to finish drives and uh string together 1239 01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:57,880 Speaker 1: impressive drive Like it's just nothing I love about Mississippi State, 1240 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 1: especially on offense here, So I hate that I'm going 1241 01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:03,760 Speaker 1: with it, But yeah, I am going Mississippi State on 1242 01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:05,840 Speaker 1: the road. I think just textas A and M how 1243 01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:08,960 Speaker 1: beat up they are upfront on offense with their inability 1244 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:12,480 Speaker 1: to drive the field. They against Arkansas good team against 1245 01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 1: Arkansas A and M wasn't even putting together seven plays 1246 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 1: twenty nine yards and a punt. It was like five 1247 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:22,840 Speaker 1: for negative two over and over again. Yeah, that's terrifying 1248 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 1: to me. And against I still think Mississippi State is 1249 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:27,840 Speaker 1: a decent defense. So I'm just going with what I 1250 01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 1: think is the slightly more complete team in state. But 1251 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 1: I hate this pick as well. 1252 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:36,920 Speaker 2: Seven point thirty ABC Indiana at Penn State. Penn State 1253 01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:44,400 Speaker 2: favored by ten and a half through my lock for one, 1254 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 2: Indiana has not looked good and Michael Pennix seems like 1255 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:52,440 Speaker 2: he is off again coming back from the knee injury. Secondly, 1256 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 2: Penn State lost last year and it opened up a 1257 01:05:56,760 --> 01:06:01,640 Speaker 2: hellscape of the season immediately thereafter, and they've looked good 1258 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:04,240 Speaker 2: so far this year. It's a revenge game for them. 1259 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 2: It's at night. They're starting to find their stride on offense. 1260 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 2: I don't understand why this line is not higher. This 1261 01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 2: should be at least fourteen. So let's lock up Penn 1262 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:14,560 Speaker 2: State minus ten and a half. 1263 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't the line isn't higher because Indiana is 1264 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 1: sort of the Fox Moulder team of the year that 1265 01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:22,720 Speaker 1: I want to believe in Indiana, but they're just not 1266 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:27,320 Speaker 1: now or they're just not generating plays downfield on offense. Defensively, 1267 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 1: I think they play the pass relatively well, so Sean 1268 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 1: Clifford might have some issues. But no, I think Indiana 1269 01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:37,520 Speaker 1: might be the cure for the common team, even if 1270 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:39,280 Speaker 1: they don't look great that you can comfortably beat at 1271 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:39,760 Speaker 1: the NASO. 1272 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:40,680 Speaker 2: That's Minnesota. 1273 01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: Excuse me, that is Minnesota. I like Penn State here, 1274 01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:45,360 Speaker 1: and I think in two or three weeks this would 1275 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 1: have been a sixteen and a half point line. 1276 01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:51,400 Speaker 2: Seven point thirty acc Network Boston College at Clemson, Clemson 1277 01:06:51,440 --> 01:06:54,120 Speaker 2: favored by fifteen and a half. Tough break for them. 1278 01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:56,520 Speaker 2: As you said, Brian Brazi done for the year with 1279 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:57,720 Speaker 2: the acl. 1280 01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:58,520 Speaker 1: And shape for a while. 1281 01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:00,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Shipley is not going to be done for the year, 1282 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:02,680 Speaker 2: but he's going to be out about three to four weeks. 1283 01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:06,560 Speaker 2: I have not seen an update on James Skalski's he playing. 1284 01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:09,320 Speaker 1: I can look, but give me your thoughts on the 1285 01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:11,040 Speaker 1: games overall. While well, I'll tell you. 1286 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,919 Speaker 2: My point here. My only frame of reference is that 1287 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:22,440 Speaker 2: Clemson seemed like despirited last week and did not look good. 1288 01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 2: Has not looked good all year. Boston College. I don't 1289 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 2: like the fact that they're playing with Dennis Grozel at quarterback, 1290 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 2: but sure he was fine, He's been fine, and I 1291 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:36,080 Speaker 2: trust a lot in Jeff Hathley to get BC fired up. 1292 01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 2: So not saying an outright win, but fifteen and a 1293 01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 2: half's a lot against a team that I feel right 1294 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:45,040 Speaker 2: now is really trying to define its way again, trying 1295 01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 2: to build some momentum. Let's go BC plus the number. 1296 01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 1: So Skalski expected back, as is Mario Goodrich at corner 1297 01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 1: for Clemson. You mentioned Brizzy and Will Shipley on the 1298 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:55,640 Speaker 1: other side of the ball, but yeah, they were down 1299 01:07:55,800 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 1: three four guys Clemson last week against NC State. I'm 1300 01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:05,240 Speaker 1: going BC here. I this there I mean, Clemson is 1301 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:08,240 Speaker 1: the give me a reason, Just give me a reason 1302 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 1: to believe in this Clemson offense, because I think there 1303 01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 1: is rightfully reason to believe in BC as a well 1304 01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:19,439 Speaker 1: coached team with a decent enough defense. They ran the 1305 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:22,760 Speaker 1: ball really well last week, and like we just have 1306 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:24,680 Speaker 1: to see it from Clemson before, Like, okay, you're a 1307 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,920 Speaker 1: sixteen to fifteen point favorite against a team who hasn't lost, granted, 1308 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:29,360 Speaker 1: haven't played great teams. 1309 01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:30,640 Speaker 2: Like I don't know. 1310 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:32,240 Speaker 1: This feels like an eight and a half, nine and 1311 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:35,080 Speaker 1: a half point spread to me, and we are just 1312 01:08:36,040 --> 01:08:38,840 Speaker 1: trying to convince ourselves that Clemson just needs that one 1313 01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:40,760 Speaker 1: week to become Clemson once again. And I don't know 1314 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 1: if that's necessarily the case. They tried to give that 1315 01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:46,200 Speaker 1: game to NC State over and over last week, and 1316 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:48,240 Speaker 1: then NC State in turn tried to give it to Clemson. 1317 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm going Boston College to keep it within 1318 01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:53,439 Speaker 1: about ten points. 1319 01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:58,800 Speaker 2: And finally, nine PMSPN Auburn at LSU. LSU favored by 1320 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,559 Speaker 2: three and a half points. Nobody has any idea what 1321 01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 2: to pick here, right, I'm really in the fence. I 1322 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:11,599 Speaker 2: don't think all that much of either of these teams 1323 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:16,600 Speaker 2: if I'm being honest, Okay, I like Auburn's secondary. I 1324 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,519 Speaker 2: guess that's the thing. I don't like their quarterback. I 1325 01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:24,719 Speaker 2: never have LSU at home. I think is a tough cookie. 1326 01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:28,439 Speaker 2: But I can see this being a field goal. And 1327 01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:30,280 Speaker 2: because I don't know where to pick, I'm going to 1328 01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:32,559 Speaker 2: go points. I'm gonna go Auburn plus the points. 1329 01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going with the team that isn't counting on 1330 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:40,000 Speaker 1: either Bonix or TJ. Finley at quarterback. So the fact 1331 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:42,599 Speaker 1: that that team also is playing at home night game 1332 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:46,599 Speaker 1: in Baton Rouge. What nine eastern, nine eastern so eight 1333 01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:48,800 Speaker 1: pm local? Yeah, I'm going with LSU here to win 1334 01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:51,679 Speaker 1: this game by a touchdown. Yeah, Yeah, I feel fine 1335 01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:52,040 Speaker 1: about it. 1336 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 2: All right, we did it. We made it through. 1337 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I can I give you a couple of bone 1338 01:09:57,439 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 1: bonus Jonas type games that are just existing. Yeah, Virginia 1339 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 1: is hosting Miami. You can get into that for twelve 1340 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 1: dollars on Thursday night. So there's a home dog if 1341 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,479 Speaker 1: you like Virginia. I think the worst thing this game 1342 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 1: is a Virginia defense. Tennessee at Miszoo in a something's 1343 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 1: got to give in terms of like Both of these 1344 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 1: teams are penciling in this game as a maybe win, 1345 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:20,840 Speaker 1: so one of them has to get it. Nevada Boise 1346 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:23,040 Speaker 1: six and a half points. Boise is the favorite here, 1347 01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:25,720 Speaker 1: but should feature some good offenses, so that's fun. That's 1348 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:29,080 Speaker 1: I think. Saturday Afternoon Louisiana Tech NC State. Now it's 1349 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 1: a nineteen and a half point favorite situation for NC State, 1350 01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 1: but there is that let down, look ahead, open face 1351 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 1: sandwich factor here with NC State coming off of that 1352 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:43,400 Speaker 1: Clemson win. Louisiana twelve and a half point road favorites 1353 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:45,760 Speaker 1: against South Alabama. That's three and one against three and zero. 1354 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 1: Another interesting something's got to give in the Sun Belt. 1355 01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:54,080 Speaker 2: Excellent?
