There was a 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: drop punt, there was a pick six, and then the 10 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: field tipped.

I am excited to be 16 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 2: with you today. We excited to watch Organ tonight. Two 17 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 2: straight games, two straight days where tweets have had to 18 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: be deleted because of the end result. Right when you 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: have the Rams up thirty fourteen, Oklahoma up, you know, 20 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 2: seventeen to nothing. A lot of things were said, including 21 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: things from me and those I've had to be erased 22 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: and changed but such as sports. I mean, look, Alabama 23 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: two or sixty yards on offense, thirty four points in 24 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: a road win. 25 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 1: Those numbers don't always align. 26 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 2: But they got it done because that's college football and 27 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: special uns manor right. We saw that last night, we 28 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: saw that on Thursday, and that's why it's a team game. 29 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: It's why you have office. You have been special teams. 30 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 2: And they made more plays in the end. Oklahoma completely melted. 31 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: I mean, they're seventy nothing at home, and this is 32 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: like why you play your season right to have a 33 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: home playoff game like this, to go seventeen to nothing 34 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: and lose. Knock except you know so, but cred Alabama 35 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: credit the winner. First, they won the game. They made 36 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: the players that were necessary to get it done. The 37 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: last dude, But the last six drives this game were 38 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: like four punts and two missfield. I mean, it's kind 39 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: of It was just a gross game in general. So 40 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 2: know what, we thought this game would be probably a 41 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: little more points than the defensive touchdown. But in the end, 42 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,119 Speaker 2: Bama wins, killing the borough off whatever semi hot seat 43 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: he was on, probably off of Michigan coaching board now 44 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 2: as well. 45 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: In Alabama advances to play Indiana. 46 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: And the Rose Bull. 47 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know it really was kind of unacceptable for 48 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: for Oklahoma in so many ways. Man, well you got 49 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: that kind of lead, and I get it. And the 50 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: defense too, well that's it, like that's that's it all 51 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: you need. And then what happened the real issue is 52 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: all right, so things happen like a punter will drop 53 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: a punt and it will drop the ball and you 54 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: got bad luck. Defense still held them at three, and 55 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: then the pick six was awful. But when Alabama tied 56 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: it up, you saw the tier going to a shell. 57 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: After the pick six is when their offense started to 58 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: really stall. Yeah, and between the end of the second 59 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: quarter and the entire third quarter, they you could see they. 60 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: Play title offense. Yeah, you know, Matier is just not 61 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 2: an upper eche long quarterback. I mean, Ty Simpson is 62 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: better than him, I think, especially as a passer. Now, 63 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: Matier can run the ball obviously, which is hugely important too, 64 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 2: but the materi is their run game. Like he's their 65 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: run game. And I think too, even on the Alabama side, 66 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: they can't run the football, man, but it's a problem, 67 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 2: but they do enough and they stuck with it. Look, 68 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: I love that fourth down call by killing the Boords 69 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 2: at seventeen to nothing fourth and two about the fifteen, 70 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: you could have kicked a short field goal, but you 71 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 2: know you need a point and something's a good you know, 72 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: I feel good about they throw a short pass, it 73 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 2: was completed for a first down. Three four tackles later, 74 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 2: guys you know, broken down the guys in the in 75 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: zone and you celebrated a touchdown. So h that was 76 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: a huge hurting point in that game. Followed by him 77 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: the drop punt, which is just like I'm not sure 78 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 2: I've ever seen a punter just no no wind, no weather, 79 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: no just flat out drop the ball as he went 80 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: to put put it on his leg. 81 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: I've never seen that before. 82 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 2: Like that, so Oklahoma in all phases, just you know, 83 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: they missed two field goals. Then in the game, the 84 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 2: field kicker one of the like gros Award did he 85 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 2: like the best, Like they just didn't he missed one 86 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 2: whole year. They just didn't. Just didn't play well in 87 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 2: the moment and they're at home, you know, like this 88 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 2: is again you want to buy right like you fight 89 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: for a buy. 90 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: I get that. If you don't get one, what's what's 91 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: better home home playoff game. 92 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 2: I get Tobama team, by the way, that has not 93 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 2: played terribly well for the last month. They've won games, 94 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 2: but they can't think haven't been able to score a 95 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: lot of points in those games. They just got dominated 96 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 2: by Georgia and you had them up seventeen nothing and 97 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: couldn't finish the game. 98 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,799 Speaker 1: You know, it's bizarre. They didn't run the ball right, 99 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: and Bama, well they can't run the ball well all season. 100 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: This is like it's not new for now, I agree, 101 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: but I'm just laying out this fut Yeah, and Jeremy 102 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: Bernard was quiet, like he had one big chance for 103 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: a play and he dropped it. He was on the ground. 104 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: So Jeremy bre Bernard was quiet. So was Ryan Williams, 105 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: who has just fallen off the planet. They feels like 106 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 1: no chances back on the team next year right now. 107 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: But then they win, Like that's what's amazing, right, I mean, 108 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: here Brooks has a great game, but that was it, Like, 109 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: well you look at it, it's nuts. So the first game. 110 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 2: Was won by Oklahoma and the postgame win expectancy, so 111 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 2: again just sort of I've talked about this before, right, 112 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: just sort of looking at what the numbers of the 113 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 2: game will tell you the efficiency numbers right would have put, well, 114 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 2: did put Oklahoma with a five percent chance to win 115 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 2: that game? And they won? They won twenty three twenty one. 116 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: I'm curious what the postgame went. Expectancy, Well, this game was, Yes, 117 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: this was the opposite. I don't think it's I don't 118 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 2: think it's gonna be up yet. 119 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: But I'm curious if first downs Oklahoma eighteen to twelve, 120 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: Alabama was two for twelve. On third down Oklahoma seven 121 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: for eighteen total yards BABA two hundred and sixty total yards, 122 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: Oklahoma three sixty two, Alabama twenty eight rushing yards, Oklahoma 123 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: three hundred and seven passing yards, time of possession Alabama 124 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 1: twenty six fifty two, Oklahoma thirty three eight in every 125 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: category lay out stat alabout. 126 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking here. I'm seeing my guy Bill Connley, 127 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 2: who posts posting win toward TV's got it up yet. 128 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 2: I'm kind of curious to see because I mean, this 129 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: feels like a game where again this is gonna be 130 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 2: like ten percent again, but it's gonna be the other direction, 131 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: right where the other team, you know, is the one 132 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 2: who does it. So I mean, it's really the first 133 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 2: nineteen minutes, Oklahoma went up seventeen, nothing out gained Bamba 134 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: one eighty one to twelve. The next twenty one minutes, 135 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 2: Bama outscored the sender's twenty seven nothing out gained them 136 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 2: one ninety four to fifty nine. Just wild to wild Man. 137 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: Just a game that this has looked. This why football, 138 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: I mean is I feel like you just don't get 139 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: this very much. And in other sports, like you're not 140 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 2: gonna get a basketball game or one team shot terribly 141 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 2: Like no, again, you can't and win like you just 142 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: that's not the way it works. And football, you even 143 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: go back to Thursday night, I don't think, I don't 144 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: think Stalles better than than Los Angeles, but they won 145 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 2: the game. You know, it's just that just is what 146 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 2: it is. That's the way football is. It's because there's 147 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 2: so many different phases, there's so many different ways to 148 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: win that so many different ways to lose. Quite honestly, right, 149 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: I talk about this a lot. I really do firmly 150 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 2: believe this. I think more teams lose games and win games. 151 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 2: And I think here's it's a good example here of 152 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 2: that where Oklahoma lost this game. Right, They lost this 153 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: game with the pick six. Stay through. They lost this 154 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 2: game by you know, by missing field goals. They lost 155 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: this game by dropping a punt. You know, Bama didn't 156 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: Bama didn't have the pick six. They caught the football, 157 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 2: but it's a bad throw. And then you mentioned r 158 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 2: John Matier goes into a shell, you know, like and 159 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: that's the confidence you have to have to play after 160 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: bad things happen. That takes a special skill and John 161 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 2: Materier just yesterday just didn't have that special skill in 162 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: him to overcome that. 163 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: Now, that's huge, It's exactly right. The what we saw 164 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: too is you know, when you've got a team on 165 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: the ropes, you have to you know, and we've seen 166 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 1: this from time to time, and again this wasn't last night, 167 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: but we've seen it where teams just kind of get 168 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: up big and have a big lead and they kind 169 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: of go into a shell, right like they just kind 170 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 1: of don't execute, They don't they don't continue to depress it, like, 171 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: I don't know whether they're gonna learn that you've got 172 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: to keep being aggressive. 173 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the Rams are figured this out the 174 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 2: hard way multiple times this year. 175 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: Right where I saw one where against the Eagles. 176 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, like you gotta keep going, you gotta keep you 177 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: got you gotta you gotta keep the foot down. You 178 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 2: have to be down. 179 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 1: And they start running the ball and trying to milk 180 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: clock in the third quarter. You can't do it like 181 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: these guys, like they play prevent defense on. 182 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: Offense, especially especially in my in my opinion on college football, 183 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 2: where the game deals a little bit longer, right, yeah, 184 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 2: stops after first downs under two minutes, and there seems 185 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 2: to be more variants and more bad things can happen, 186 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 2: Like you have to keep the foot down the entire game. 187 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 2: You just you can never stop, never stop trying to 188 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: score points, never stop. And I think that it's human 189 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 2: nature to try to shorten the game up. But to 190 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 2: Oklahoma is not a shortened game up offense, right because 191 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: they don't run the ball well. Like I I understand 192 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: if you run the ball really well, Okay, yeah, look 193 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: short in the game up, Like I get that philosophy. 194 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: But if that's not who you are, because you can't 195 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 2: run the ball very well, then you can't be as 196 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 2: short in the game. 197 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: Team. You have to be a score as many points. 198 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: You can't. 199 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: Now the last time I say welcome with though defensively, 200 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: you know, they they got two inch fixty yards like 201 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: that's that's basically you should win those games when you're 202 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 2: doing that rights, and they just didn't. 203 00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: So I don't. 204 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 2: I don't blame the d defense at all in this one. 205 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 2: Now we have Indiana Oklahoma in the roads, gonna be 206 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 2: Alabama Indiana in the in the Rose Bowl. What a 207 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: fascinating game, man. 208 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,319 Speaker 1: I love Indiana in this game. 209 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: I think Alabama is not going to score in this game, 210 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 2: so you know, I think, like for all of us, 211 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 2: this will be a fun watch. And we got three 212 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 2: games today, We've we we had two NFL games today. 213 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 2: H your your squad's playing today against a Commander squad 214 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 2: that's out their quarterback. 215 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: I don't. 216 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 2: I just don't. I still don't trust you guys. We'll 217 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: talk about that obviously plenty today as well. So man, 218 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 2: so much football, dude. I love it. 219 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: It is. It's the it is the holidays are here, 220 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: and it's the greatest. It really is the greatest time. 221 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: But just to continue the Oklahoma thing, because I'm watching 222 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: that thing and I I don't think they went into 223 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: a shell. I just think data loss confidence, right, like 224 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: they just got blitzed. It was a blitz type of 225 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: thing where two jolts right, like the drop the drop 226 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 1: punt and then the pick six jolted that like they 227 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: were rolling and the next thing, you know, the game's tied, 228 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: and psychologically they couldn't handle it. Like take me into 229 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: your world in the highest level, right, yeah, because I 230 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: could talk about lower level. I want to know from 231 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: the highest level of your level. When you when you squander, 232 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: when you you feel like you have a game in control, 233 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: and then you go in into halftime and you go, 234 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: oh my god, we're down or we're tied. What's that mindset? 235 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: And then that, to me is everything to overcome. 236 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 2: Look, it's you know, offensively, I always felt like. 237 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: It was. 238 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 2: It was just it's a little easier than defensively. I 239 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 2: think the mindset was like our drops a score points 240 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 2: no matter what. So we're got, you know, seventeen seventeen. 241 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: Its just like, let's just let's just score points, man, 242 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 2: but let's just make it happen. And I feel like defensively, 243 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 2: you know, there's a lot of momentum involved, and I 244 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 2: consider that sort of confidence involved there, and so I 245 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 2: think defensively it's a little bit harder when when the 246 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 2: bad things happened, but offensive jubs just a score like 247 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 2: Geo materiy through a pick six, like screw it band, 248 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 2: like let's go, like, let's just have that confidence to 249 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 2: to play faster. And I imagine Brad Vnables came to 250 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 2: the locker room was like, all right, come on, guys, 251 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 2: like what are we doing now? Alabama had to fit 252 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 2: great at halftime because they did not play on the 253 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 2: first half right, and they ended up being ahead. So 254 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 2: one thing that I think is super important and the 255 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: best teams do this, and it really is hard to do. 256 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: I think, is you you spent all week preparing now 257 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: in this case, you spent you know, two weeks preparing 258 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: for this game. Is that no matter what happened in 259 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 2: the first half, you cannot get off your game plan. 260 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 2: That's what dooms a lot of a lot of teams 261 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 2: is they get to a point of the game where 262 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: they get out their game plan, their game script so soon. 263 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 2: I'm not saying Oklahoma did that, but that's one thing 264 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 2: I've noticed over the years with playing with certain coaches 265 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 2: like the ones that that in bad moments stick stuck 266 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: with what we practiced all week tended to fare better 267 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 2: in those situations than otherwise. And you can't pan. 268 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 3: Now. 269 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 2: Of course there is a time to say, look what 270 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: we what we practice just isn't gonna work today, right, 271 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 2: But there that wasn't the case yesterday. So that's a 272 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: lot of it for me is you have a game plan, 273 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 2: you have to stick to it, dude. These these games 274 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: are long, man. I bring this up all the time 275 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: to people like football. It's a long game. We saw 276 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 2: it the last two nights. 277 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: Man. 278 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 2: Now the NFL, we don't see comebacks quite like that 279 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: is often, and we see that a lot, you know, 280 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: in college football. But the fact is, like these games 281 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 2: are long. They're their ebbs and flows. You have to 282 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: ride the wave. 283 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: Man. 284 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 2: You can't get too up and two down and stick 285 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 2: with what you practice, what you know you can do well. 286 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 2: Oklahoma try looked like they ran the ball bunch with 287 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: Materier as they should have. They tried their best to 288 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 2: stick with the game plan. Obviously, just wasn't enough to 289 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: make to make the place the end. Again, it was 290 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 2: a it was a failure from everyone. They threw a 291 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 2: pick six offensive, they didn'trun the ball very well, and 292 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 2: they bout special teams like this is These are all 293 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 2: things that matter in an important game like this. So 294 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: unfortunate ending for the Sooners. You know, I thought they 295 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: were winning this game. I was wrong on that. I 296 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 2: did my favorite prop of the weekend hit, which is 297 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 2: Jom's over over Russian attempts. That was my favorite. I mean, 298 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: I I that was he had nineteen of them. Now, 299 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 2: of course sacks count as rush attempts, but I thought 300 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 2: he had to run the ball a lot. 301 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: He did. Yeah, yeah, that's good. That was a good play. 302 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's amazing because he threw. He threw for 303 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: over three hundred yards. But he's not but he's not 304 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: a relative. It's not an accurate passer. Though. Mechanics are horrible. 305 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean he's mechanics. I mean you know, 306 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 1: I mean everything as a quarterback. You cringe watching that, 307 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: like you go, you know, he's jumping in the air, 308 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: He's twisted his body, right, I mean, you know, God 309 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: bless him. Though, I he's a competitor. I respect his competitive. 310 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: Sure, I would would you rather have a QB that's 311 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 2: a tad less competitive but better pastor. I mean, I yeah, 312 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 2: it's fine. I just he's got to be. 313 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: I get it, dude, I'm trying to be you know, 314 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: I still look at them like kids lay in the 315 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: way like I you know, I mean create sometimes. 316 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: But so some schools right now as we get to 317 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 2: the time of the season where the transfer portal is 318 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: opening opening but Genuay first. But you know it's people 319 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 2: talking about it. There are there are these schools that 320 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 2: announced the players have re signed. They're pretty on tweets. 321 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: Usc Old missed in it, have re signed, Jeff Schwartz, Dude, 322 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: it's cringe as can be. I understand the nature of 323 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 2: the sport now these players are getting. 324 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: Paid, but to me it. 325 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 2: To to to these teams specifically put out like re signed, 326 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: they're no longer kids, buddy, Like I felt the same 327 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 2: way you have for years. 328 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 1: I get it. 329 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 2: For years, I did not criticize Cassubal players specifically the 330 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: way I Chris the NFL players because they're not getting paid. 331 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 2: They're I'm just I'm not going to do it. They're 332 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 2: eighteen years old, they're nineteen years old. They're now officially 333 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 2: resigning like they are officially adults, like in my book, 334 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: So I have I have the filter is off. It's 335 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: been that way for two years, three years now as 336 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 2: soon as they're getting paid they are now you know, 337 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: you know I treat them like I would treat NFL players. 338 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, like I get it. It doesn't change their age. 339 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean change we change the system. They didn't change. 340 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: They're still the same age. Just because we change the 341 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: system doesn't mean now we castigate them because they're cashing 342 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: a check. I get it. And yeah, it's a big 343 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: stage and you know, I feel you. But you know 344 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: you're still talking about young men either, even though they're 345 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: getting old. Even though some quarterbacks now, like the quarterback 346 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: at Miami today, it's twenty five years old. 347 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, save we could treat him like a a pro 348 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 2: so that you know, you know, you have you seen 349 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: those ressigned those resigned graphics, man, I. 350 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: Have, Yeah, I have, I had so. But you but 351 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: here's the problem. It's it's this is what you get 352 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: when you got free agency twice a year, right, like 353 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 1: you know you the reason why you do that is 354 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: to protect your guy. Like you know, we resign him 355 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: like they treat it just like an NFL office. It's 356 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 1: messed up, but it's here, it's not going anywhere. It's 357 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: it's insane. I just we just got done, you know, 358 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 1: we do the project that I help before the show. 359 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: And you know, I mean there was a House subcommittee 360 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: on youth sports because of affordability and a bunch of 361 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: lack of kids playing. 362 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 2: Well. The affordability thing is a real problem. It's just 363 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 2: it's very expensive now to play youth sports. 364 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: It just is now. Right. The thing, so here's here's 365 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: my whole thing on this is like, you know, travel ball. 366 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 2: College is so expensive, right, so parents look to sports 367 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 2: as a way to get to college, right, and whether 368 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 2: that's as a walk on, the preferred walk on status, 369 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 2: you can get you into school a little bit easier, right, 370 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: a scholarship obviously, you can get you into school and 371 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: paid for your school. And so parents view that as 372 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: an opportunity and rightfully so right through sports to get 373 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: into a better school, to get school paid for. You 374 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 2: just get into a school, right, And so parents are 375 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 2: pushing their kids right to get into club sports earlier, 376 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 2: travel sports earlier. That's expensive and you know REX sports 377 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 2: are still cheap. Man, My kids play REX sports still. 378 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 2: But again, if you if you, if your goal is 379 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: to get your kids started early and get them on 380 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 2: that path to be noticed by any whoever that whoever 381 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 2: getting to be noticed by you push them into club 382 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: sports earlier and earlier, And I feel fortunate because of 383 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 2: my background right to like not do that. I'm not 384 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 2: doing that with my kids. We're not we're not doing 385 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 2: that yet. And so but there is a point, like 386 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: my daughter is very good at softball, okay, and she's ginormous. 387 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,719 Speaker 2: That's probably the wrong word to you, I know, but 388 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 2: my voice says, like I don't know what the words 389 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: you used to call a girl big, Like she's my 390 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 2: daughter is very large, Okay, she's nine half percentile height 391 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 2: and weight. She's the way I put it like this, 392 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 2: it's like if you look at Jeff Schwartz's body in 393 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 2: a girl, like that's my daughter, okay, right right right right, 394 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 2: Like she's she's she's phenomenal in sports. At some point 395 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,880 Speaker 2: for her to get seen, I will have to move 396 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 2: for the club sports, right like like like no one's 397 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 2: coming to watch our local high school softball game to 398 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 2: scout to scout to scout for for scholarship athletes, Like 399 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to move at some point to go 400 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 2: play club sports travel ball so I can get her scene. 401 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: So like there's a there's a there's a pivot point 402 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 2: where that has to happen. I just wish it wasn't 403 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 2: that way, like when when I was a kid, when 404 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 2: you were kids, scouts came to high school games. So yeah, 405 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 2: like they like that's what they saw, like where they said, no, 406 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 2: you went to some showcase camps. You absolutely did. I 407 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 2: went to a Stanford baseball camp. I went to this. 408 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 1: Like, but it's just so I but it's unaffordable. It's 409 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: so expensive, dude, and travel, it's we gotta take we 410 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: gotta take a quick break.

All right, my brother, let's look to 433 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: UH today's slate. Hey, let's start with your game, all right, 434 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: because I I know you got to be just brimming 435 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 1: right now. Fire it up. It's James Madison in Oregon. 436 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: I love what coach Dan did this week. He's had 437 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: a simulated game, had the I had the duck out, 438 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: the whole thing, but start the end of the third 439 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: quarter and or the beginning of the fourth quarter. Tried 440 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: to simulate everything, UH in anticipation of the playoff game. 441 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: So it's interesting about the playoff. About hosting a playoff game, 442 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: it's actually run by the UH, the CFP committee. It's 443 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 2: like you still have some of the home things you do, 444 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,719 Speaker 2: but you do like other like you. It's like a 445 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 2: neutral syche game. Sometimes it's kind of very odd setup. 446 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 2: But nonetheless I feel good. I don't know why it 447 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 2: wouldn't I uh, you know, I mean we're better than 448 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 2: than yeah, obviously. 449 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: You know. 450 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: I think the most important the most important thing is 451 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: that it sounds like we're getting our wide receivers back 452 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,239 Speaker 2: at least two of them, uh, which would turn us 453 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 2: from right now as we're talking right now without knowing 454 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 2: the status, the actual game status of those guys. We 455 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 2: have three wide receivers that are healthy and on scholarship 456 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,719 Speaker 2: that are playing this game. Our fourth is in the portal. 457 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 2: So we have we have three. We have Benson, who 458 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: had the huge touchdown for us against Washington, right, and 459 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: he's been incredible. 460 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: We have we have. 461 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 2: Jeremiah mccleonell, number eleven, and then we have a true 462 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: freshman who doesn't play like we played our last game 463 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 2: against Washington with two wide receivers to play an entire game, 464 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 2: and we have. Luckily for us, we have two great 465 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 2: tight ends right, one of them Kendik, who's going to 466 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 2: be a top five So that's fortunate for us that 467 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 2: we could play a twelve games. 468 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: But right, you could be McVeigh right. 469 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 2: We can't correct which which we are. So half of 470 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 2: those guys back Gary Bryn Jr. And presumably Decreyn Moore, 471 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 2: who's our true freshman who is incredibly talented and how 472 00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 2: to great season until he got hurt in practice over 473 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: the bye week about six weeks ago. Now that that 474 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 2: that'd be great, be great for us. So when people 475 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 2: are saying, and I've seen Duck fans, well, you shouldn't play. 476 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 2: Are they gonna play? You know they're gonna play if 477 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 2: they're healthy, Like, come on, of course they're gonna play. 478 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: So that's important. Secondly, I looked this up. We've been 479 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 2: a favorite of at least eighteen points in seven games 480 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 2: so far this season. We've covered five of the seven, 481 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 2: but with ease for the most part, and then though 482 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 2: two we didn't cover what thirty four to nothing at 483 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 2: Northwestern they scored two touchdowns against our four string team 484 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter, and then we didn't cover the 485 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: monsoon against Wisconsin in the middle of the season. So 486 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: we play really well in these games so far this season. 487 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 2: And I've watched JMU on defense. Their defense is tough, physical, 488 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 2: plays hard, doesn't make mistakes, but they're also just not 489 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 2: very big. I mean, I just have a hard time 490 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 2: previously this game because every every player that we are 491 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 2: starting is the best player they've seen that position all season. 492 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 2: I know people will say, well, Louisville's wide receiver, I 493 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 2: guess I mean, I think the Corny Moore is better 494 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 2: than any Louisville wide receiver. Like, it's just the best 495 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 2: team they played all season. So I don't we should 496 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 2: win this game going away. It's called football. You never know, Jamie, 497 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 2: you will be ready to play. But I just we're 498 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 2: just much better. So hopefully we we take care of 499 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 2: business tonight and I could turn over to the NFL 500 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,959 Speaker 2: game fairly quickly. Well you'll watch the whole thing. Well 501 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 2: you have more so well, yeah, yeah, I'm thinking you're not. 502 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 2: I stayed up late to watch the Seattle Rams game. 503 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 2: I went to bed early last night, so tonight it's 504 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 2: a good night to stay awake again. I'll be I'll 505 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 2: make it. I'll make I'll make it with these buddy. 506 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 2: Did you watch the end of the Badman game this morning? 507 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: I did? Oh yeah, wow, I was. I tried my best. 508 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 1: I was it was. 509 00:26:58,560 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 2: I knew that tonight was going to be a long 510 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 2: so I made sure last night was A was a 511 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: I was. 512 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: Up A five. I wouldn't watch it. 513 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 2: I'll just watch it again this morning, he said, as 514 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 2: you have to do that these coasts. Man, it's hard. 515 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 2: It's it's it's it's what it is. 516 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: All right. So the crown jewel of the day's game 517 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: of the day takes place Miami and A and m Yes, sir, 518 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: and this one. I I, you know what's funny because 519 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: I like A and m But I mean I I 520 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: don't I don't feel I don't have any confidence in 521 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: kind of seeing how this game is gonna play out. 522 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: You know why I like them? I mean, you know, 523 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 1: I mean I can easily see a pathway for Miami. 524 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I you know, you love. I'm curious because 525 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 1: I think Marcel Reid doesn't get enough love and respect. 526 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 1: I'm a I like read a lot, and you know, 527 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: Beck gets all the gets all that stuff, and I 528 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: get it, like Tony is ridiculous. He's the best player 529 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:11,719 Speaker 1: on the field. 530 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 2: But Reid hasn't played as well goods the better teams, 531 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 2: and the schedule is not full of better teams. 532 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: That's that's my concern, is like. 533 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 2: This is the I mean, this is the best, you know, 534 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 2: this is the best team A and M has played 535 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 2: really played Texas at Miami, Like those are two best 536 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 2: teams are going to play offs season and they don't 537 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,479 Speaker 2: look good against Texas and they got the opportunity, and 538 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 2: you know, it gets Miami to look much better. The 539 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 2: thing that I have look I like Marrier crystabal. This 540 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: is my biggest concern is sort of the big game. 541 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 2: Hows Miami playing this game. That's my biggest concern because he, 542 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: you know, the game management sometimes has not been great 543 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 2: the situations for him. So I think Miami is better 544 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 2: as a team that have to go on the road, 545 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 2: which is tough. A and M is a tough place 546 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 2: to play. It's going to be loud, and it's gonna 547 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 2: be wild and crazy, and it's early game. By the 548 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: Miami is better. The Miami is better. And I'm curious 549 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: to see obviously if I look silly and saying. 550 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: That, yeah, I mean, you know you've forgotten other Dame 551 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: who a and m oh yeah that's all the way yes, 552 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: all the way back. I don't know if that's in. 553 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 1: I think not. 554 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 2: Dame would be A and M fairly, not easily now, 555 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 2: but it'd be. 556 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: A different Yeah, I do too. I think Notre Dame 557 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: would beat Miami easily now, but I think that would 558 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: have been both those teams last night. 559 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot about I mean the thing about football, 560 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 2: like that game was playing I think September like eighth, 561 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 2: Like it just doesn't That game just doesn't matter. There's 562 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 2: just there's that game happened, It certainly did, but it 563 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 2: has no there's no there's no use in pre in 564 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 2: previewing today's game, but talking about a game in September. 565 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: You know what's funny. I I completely agree. I just 566 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: had to bring that up. No no, no, no, no, no, no, 567 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: to be accurate. You did. No, You're right, you have to. 568 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 6: I was. 569 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 2: I was wrong that they did be they I was 570 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 2: thinking about the last thing. 571 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I know where you're at and and and 572 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: I agree with you. And I only really brought up 573 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: just to take a shot at the committee again because 574 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: I do think Notre Dame is better than all three 575 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: of these teams. So you know, the two leg or 576 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: all four of them, the two of the last night 577 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: and the two playing today. I think Notre Dame is 578 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: better than and And again, I just say this in 579 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: wanting to see the best teams out there, and that's 580 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: really it. You know. I went to Temple, so we 581 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: were not work far from the college football playoffs. I 582 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: just look at it. It's a huge void not having 583 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 1: Notre Dame there. Temple's not close like like you were. 584 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: You're really going to play that like mister big Oregon 585 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: Eugene guy kicking kicking the tu man. I mean, like 586 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: you're above that, aren't you. I don't. 587 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 2: Really it's basketball, they like organ basketball is not good. 588 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 2: We have problems this year. Now listen, it's key. It's decent, 589 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 2: but it's not where it used to be. It used 590 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 2: to be great. I remember Temple basketball is great. 591 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, they had a great coach, All Famer John Cheney. 592 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 1: Uh rest is God rest his soul. But now they're not. 593 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: That's not that's not what. That's not. 594 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 2: Still Temple still play home games at the Link for football. 595 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: Yes, it's kind of. 596 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 2: Crazy to me that both Pittsburgh and Philadelphia both have 597 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 2: grass as they should then, but both played college games 598 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 2: the day before they play NFL games. I don't know 599 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 2: how to get away with that. 600 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how. 601 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 2: The field just is destroyed. It's crazy to me that 602 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 2: that they that that that's still a thing that happens. 603 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I know, I know. So let's yeah, let's 604 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: get back to this game. Let's get back to the 605 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: So what what's your pathway? Let's look at it for 606 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: A and M. What's your now their defense like to me, 607 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: you've got to get in Beck's face. You've got to 608 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: be able to pressure him, and then just make sure 609 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: you got a bracket Tony that I love the Yeah, 610 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: I like the A and M defense. I do think 611 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: that that's kind of where they need to be and 612 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: in this in that environment. 613 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,479 Speaker 2: I think that the pathway for A and M is, 614 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 2: you know, you have a control game plan offense, You 615 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 2: leave on your offensive line, which is good, you know, 616 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 2: Ruby Bain is fantastic. You find a way to get 617 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 2: a couple of couple of eyes on him right throughout 618 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 2: the game and take away that option for them. And 619 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 2: that's that's how you do it right. And and defensively, 620 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 2: as you mentioned, like you forced back in the turnovers, 621 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: which we've seen in the losses this year that that's 622 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: been a problem, whether he's been confused or whether he's 623 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 2: been non same picts with with with with the wide receiver, 624 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 2: which is the way the the legal game ended right 625 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 2: on the interception, he said, you know me and the 626 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 2: wide was ever wear on the same page on the 627 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 2: hot route. So I thought, you do it right. You 628 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 2: just try to find a way to confuse him, confuse 629 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 2: the the Miami offense. And maybe you know, maybe it 630 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 2: starts slow, right is it is a road a road 631 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 2: playoff game, and uh, you catch them early and nap 632 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 2: in a little bit and force some turnovers and and 633 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 2: make them plays early. 634 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: Now flip side canes come in. You know, it's squarely 635 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: to me a momentum thing and just survive early. You 636 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: almost you got to not do Bama right, Like Bama 637 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: got lucky that there were a couple of big mistakes 638 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: that happened. You got to survive early without digging in 639 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: an early grave. 640 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And that to me comes down to their good 641 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: offensive line, their run game, some quick easy passes like that. 642 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 2: Like I thought, Bama yesterday just when they started the 643 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 2: game just didn't come out offensively. And you have to 644 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 2: do on the road, my opinion, especially in the hostile 645 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 2: environment and you haven't played in a couple of weeks. 646 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 2: Like just let me just just methodical, right, You use 647 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 2: your offensive line, use what you have short passes like 648 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 2: just you know, early on, just let Beck settle into things. 649 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: That's how I would do it.

I'm already looking at a 671 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 1: buddy of mine is a big Mississippi guy, big old 672 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: miss man, and they are pumped up. They cannot wait 673 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: the playoffs come to the grove. And I already got 674 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: pictures from the morning, the calm before the storm. Everybody's excited. Look, 675 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 1: I know it's it feels like not a mismatch, but 676 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting, certainly from the Lane Kiffin standpoint. 677 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 2: Look, man, I'm not saying that CAP committee has to 678 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 2: care what Jeff Schwartz thinks about about this and worry 679 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 2: about our jobs. But like, the thing that is frustrating 680 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 2: about the G five teams being in and it's not 681 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 2: their fault, that's just the system that's set up, and 682 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: JMU and Tulane and and you know Boise last year, 683 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 2: who was much better than both too Lane and JMU. 684 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 2: They would have beat them by the touchdown or more 685 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 2: they played. Is like, there's just no way to preview 686 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 2: these games. How do you preview a game that was 687 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 2: forty five to ten ear this season? Yeah, Like, what 688 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 2: do you want me to say? 689 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 1: Uh? 690 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 2: Well, if the Lane kiffn thing if it, you know, 691 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 2: I don't know what's gonna happen. I mean, all the 692 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 2: coaches came back and said to Lane, like you, what 693 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 2: do you equate that to seven points? So this would 694 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 2: be a twenty four point spread if Lane was there. 695 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 2: Most sportsbooks I think have made this a four, have 696 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 2: changed his number by four without Lane Kiffin being there. 697 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit more quite honestly, losing 698 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 2: your head coach and play caller. But Old Miss again 699 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 2: is just more talented. That's the thing about about the sport. 700 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 2: There are surely upsets that happened, right, but a lot 701 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 2: of times they happen uh in week two, in week 702 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 2: seven and week ten. There's a difference wheen you've had 703 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 2: an entire two weeks to prepare and this game matters. 704 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 2: It's a playoff game, right if they played this game 705 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 2: in week eleven, feel a little differently, But you're gonna 706 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 2: get Old Misses full attention in this game. It's also 707 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 2: at home. You know, Old Miss defensively is not as 708 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 2: good this season as they were in years past. So 709 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 2: maybe two Lane, you try to muck the game up 710 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 2: a little bit. You run the ball. You know, all 711 00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 2: these teams JMU and two Lake have to be they're 712 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: going to be so good on third down on offense. Well, really, 713 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 2: to be fair, they have to be really good on 714 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 2: first down to put them on a situation where, you know, 715 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 2: opportunity for convertible third downs. I mean JMU was looking 716 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 2: at the numbers earlier. JMU, they they have a third 717 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 2: and seven plus forty eight percent of their third downs 718 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 2: that ain't gonna work. That don't work today, not gonna 719 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 2: work today, buddy, So excuse me. Fifty five yeah, yeah, 720 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 2: forty six percent of the time they have a third 721 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 2: and seven plus ain't gonna work today. So winning first 722 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 2: downs for both these teams is gonna be hugely important. 723 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 2: Every play you've ever had, imaginable in your entire playbook, right, 724 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 2: is gonna be out there today. 725 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: Every trick play. 726 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 2: Every formation, every everything you could ever imagine is gonna 727 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 2: be out thrown out for two Lane today, for for 728 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 2: JMU today. You know, can those defenses have good eye discipline, right? 729 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 2: Can they make sure that they're not fooled by anything 730 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 2: and allow to Lane or JMU to score. Look, it's 731 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 2: last night, Oklahoma is up seventeen. Nothing being able to 732 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 2: look back and wins. If two Lane or Jamie gets 733 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 2: down seventeen nothing, they're losing by forty five, right, So like, 734 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 2: how fast can they start? How can they know? How 735 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 2: can they win on third down? 736 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 1: Right? 737 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 2: Like there's little things that and even that even if 738 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 2: you are good on first down, you're good on third down, 739 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,319 Speaker 2: you're you're you're still just less talented, right, you know, 740 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 2: it's an easier case to make that to Lene and 741 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: Retslough just play their minds for two and a half 742 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 2: quarters to keep the game close, right, And and Chamblins 743 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 2: doesn't have Lane Kiffin there and he's not you know, 744 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 2: and they they turn out the you know, the team 745 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 2: over to Golden and just they're not as crisp as 746 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 2: they can be, right, And I can make that case better. 747 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 2: I can jam you organ. Right, So maybe too Lane 748 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 2: MUCKs it up enough to keep it close. They're not 749 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 2: gonna win over sixty minutes. But I can see a 750 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 2: path for old Missus to start a little slower than 751 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,760 Speaker 2: we expect because of the coaching changes. 752 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: But also too to Lane's coaches coaching Florida. He's he's 753 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: in Florida now. It's like some are all on social 754 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: media has a picture of himself in two different like 755 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 1: half shirt half Florida, half. 756 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 2: Too late, like these coaches, Chesty has already with his. 757 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:05,760 Speaker 1: Eyes to UCLA. 758 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 2: So there's so many things layers to these games that 759 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 2: I didn't really make it tougher for the G five 760 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 2: teams to compete at the level they want to be at. 761 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and listen, we all know what they need to fix. 762 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: We've talked about at nauseum.

Like it takes an hour to make 839 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 2: the broth. I could do one that takes longer, But 840 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 2: to make the broth from scratches not very hard. It 841 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 2: just it just you know, it takes a little bit 842 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 2: of time. So yeah, there's a many options for me. 843 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,240 Speaker 2: It's gonna be warm next week too, so the soups 844 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 2: might be off off I might not feel like soup 845 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 2: next week. 846 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: So they're going to the Where are they going again, Whistler, Okay, 847 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:34,399 Speaker 1: north of Vancouver.

We went to Utah last year 851 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 2: for the same time period. It wasn't it didn't snow 852 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 2: very much and it wasn't terribly cold. But this is 853 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,320 Speaker 2: gonna be like legit snow. The kids will do The 854 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 2: kids will ski from uh seven am. 855 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 1: To four o'clock. They will not stop. They they love it. 856 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 1: That's awesome, man. 857 00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 2: Yeah they're good. They're good at skiing, so they they 858 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 2: certainly love it. Yeah, that sounds like that's such a 859 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: boogy thing to say. There good at skiing. Never would 860 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 2: have thought I would say something like that in my life. 861 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:14,239 Speaker 1: Hey, here's what it is. All right, we got NFL 862 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 1: today as well as college football. Man cannot live by 863 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:24,240 Speaker 1: college football alone. So this begins the NFL Saturday games. 864 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:26,760 Speaker 1: So we have a couple of week A Saturday games. 865 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 1: We get it started at five with the Eagles and Commanders. Obviously, 866 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: Commanders are done. Dave sheld Jade Daniels like he's done 867 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:42,720 Speaker 1: for the year. They shelved him Mariotle start. The Eagles 868 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 1: looked after losing three straight, beat a hapless Raiders team 869 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 1: crossed them thirty one, nothing out, say whatever you want. 870 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 1: They held an NFL team to seventy five yards, so 871 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: that's still impressive. And now they go to place to 872 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: face Washington, which should continue their get. 873 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 2: Right kind of feel. So let's keep us interesting to 874 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 2: me because we know that the Raiders are the medicine 875 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 2: for any bad football team player of the Raiders gonna win. 876 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 2: Feel better? Are the Eagles offensive woes fixed now? Because 877 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 2: let the Chiefs put up thirty one on the under 878 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:26,320 Speaker 2: the Raiders, right, the Raiders absolutely stink. So I gotta 879 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 2: see that man I you know is now Nolan Johnson again. 880 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 2: So that's that's important because I think that he really 881 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 2: makes a big difference to the offensive line Washington. The 882 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 2: question for Washington, a lot of it comes down to, 883 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:46,279 Speaker 2: like how much do they care about this game? 884 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 1: Right? 885 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,800 Speaker 2: Because Jane Daniels as they they're sitting him, which I 886 00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 2: think it makes a lot of sense. So Mariota is starting. 887 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 2: They're out of the playoffs as a division rival. Is 888 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 2: a primetime game, it's a game against your you know, 889 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 2: it's the the Eagles. They're going to care a little bit. 890 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 2: But like how if it gets tough, it gets you know, hard, 891 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,320 Speaker 2: How much I'm really gonna care about this game is 892 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:06,959 Speaker 2: my question? 893 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 1: So, uh, fascinating game. 894 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 2: The Eagles win this game, I believe they win the division, right, 895 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 2: had a shirt game for the Eagles. Yeah, with a 896 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 2: win today, first division winner back to back in the 897 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,400 Speaker 2: ANFC East two thousand and three would be today. If 898 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,880 Speaker 2: Philly were to win this game, I think if Philly 899 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 2: plays well offensively, you sort of feel good about them 900 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 2: heading the postseason, right, a couple of weeks in a row, 901 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 2: some some good stuff, you know, defensively, so offensively. I'm 902 00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 2: looking forward to this game. I'm if Daniels is playing, 903 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 2: it will be different. I'm mildly looking forward to this game. 904 00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 2: I know you're you know, you're Eagles fan. Well, yeah, 905 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 2: I mean I think a couple of things off of 906 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:53,240 Speaker 2: this thing. One, Washington defense is not good, So that's 907 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:58,800 Speaker 2: Everything with the Eagles is about their offense. Their defense 908 00:47:58,880 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 2: is legitimate. 909 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 1: The defense can drag them to a little bit of 910 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 1: a run, but it's really gonna be about whether or 911 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:11,799 Speaker 1: not they can execute offensively and get confidence. Now they've 912 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 1: done even when they lost the Chargers, they did different 913 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 1: things right, like Jalen under center. It finally appears that 914 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 1: Jalen has embraced under center, which he needs to be. 915 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 1: He also flashed in the run game, and I think 916 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 1: that's what he's most effective is when he's playing point 917 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 1: guard and he's evolved in a run game. It just 918 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: makes it they may It makes them so much harder. 919 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 1: We actually saw some creativity in the offense. I had 920 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 1: somebody tell me the other day because we were talking 921 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,239 Speaker 1: about the creativity and got it being evolved at tight 922 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 1: end and I was like, I was like, I liked 923 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 1: a couple of formations, particularly the Goddard stuff. And I 924 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: was told, what do you think that Petlo doesn't want 925 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 1: to do that stuff or it doesn't know how to 926 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 1: do that stuff? Of course they do. It's been it's 927 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 1: been limited. Well why is why is that? Though? Well 928 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 1: apparently limited a little bit because of the quarterback and 929 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 1: what he likes to do and quarterback changing plays and 930 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. But I thought Jalen executed that 931 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 1: stuff really well. Now you can say it's the Raiders defense, 932 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 1: so what Yeah, no, they're supposed to. You know, you 933 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 1: should against bad teams. You should play well if you're 934 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: a good team. So I agree with you there. Yeah, 935 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,240 Speaker 1: and I you know again, this should be another another 936 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: offensive you know, they should. They should look good offensively. 937 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 1: Washington's defense they had no pass rush, So I'm with 938 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 1: you there on a lot of things. You said. 939 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 2: A couple more questions I have for you. So there 940 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:56,960 Speaker 2: was report next sire already got more involve the offense. 941 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 2: Do you do you think that's the case. Yeah, I do. 942 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: I think he was. 943 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,600 Speaker 2: He was part of it, which is what I think 944 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 2: is needs to happen. Right, We talked about this for 945 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 2: a while though, Right, if you have a side of 946 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 2: the ball that you are in charge of as a 947 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 2: head coach, yeah you got you gotta be able to 948 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 2: jump in. So I'm glad they did that. That's super important. 949 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 2: That's awesome for the for Philly, And now it's just 950 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 2: a matter of sort of getting yourself, you know, win 951 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 2: the game, get healthy, get carter back, get laying back, 952 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 2: and get ready for the postseason. I still don't know 953 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 2: what this offense would look like. I think it's a 954 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 2: better defense. I mean there's still question marks there, but 955 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:42,439 Speaker 2: another sharp performance today would be very encouraging. I feel 956 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,880 Speaker 2: like people have forgotten about Philly right you look at 957 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 2: at the at the the stands right now in the NFC, 958 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 2: you know they're gonna have a home playoff game, they're 959 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,479 Speaker 2: defending champions. I feel like we've sort of forgotten about 960 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:56,359 Speaker 2: the possibility of Philly, who could go back to Super 961 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,000 Speaker 2: I don't think they're as good as the Rams. But 962 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 2: the Rams, though, have also blown multiple games in a road. 963 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:02,919 Speaker 2: But I don't trust the Rams early in any sort 964 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,600 Speaker 2: of game because they can't. You know, they blew a 965 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 2: big lead to the Philly. They blew a big lead 966 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:09,879 Speaker 2: to Seattle. They they lost the Panthers, so they see 967 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 2: his wide open. Man, I don't know why Philly, if 968 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 2: they start playing better holistically, can can get back to 969 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. 970 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I what gives me the most optimism from 971 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 1: that from their perspective is I think they have the 972 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:29,439 Speaker 1: best defense in the NFC, better than Seattle. Yep, yep, 973 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,520 Speaker 1: they got a better front, and they have an equal secondary. 974 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean Quentna Mitchell has not allowed a touchdown pass 975 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: to Sea. One of the most underrated players in the 976 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: league is Coignon Cooper Degene you know, physical, can play corner, 977 00:51:52,239 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 1: can play a lot like the song. Yeah, I mean, 978 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 1: you know. I mean they are two good linebackers. They're 979 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: good at every level. Even their only weak spot was 980 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,879 Speaker 1: CB two. And Tori Jackson's actually played well. 981 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:19,280 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, he's he's been he's been better. 982 00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:24,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I'm not saying he's you know, Quinnya 983 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 1: on the other side, right, not Reeves, but I mean 984 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 1: he's played well, like he hasn't been a problem. They 985 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 1: had an injury, you other safety spot, they brought in 986 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: a veteran Epps Marcusp's been kind of solidified that. So 987 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:43,879 Speaker 1: their secondary is good. They got you know, I mean, 988 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: two great players on it again, they got a dynamic front, 989 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 1: and they got two good linebackers and Zach Bond and 990 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:54,319 Speaker 1: the Kobe Dean who were very active. So I'll take 991 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,320 Speaker 1: the Eagles defense over Seattle's defense. 992 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 2: I really consider Philly in that way defensively, and I 993 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 2: love the coordinator. I think Fancier knows what he's done 994 00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 2: is out of Quenjo is fantastic. And we saw last 995 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 2: season to end the year how much better the defense 996 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,080 Speaker 2: played than the start the season. Right, so you have 997 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 2: some some sort of you know, the idea of what 998 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 2: what that could look like. Hey in the postseason. I 999 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 2: do feel like he had. In the NFC, Phillies that 1000 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 2: one team that were sort of just not paying attention to. 1001 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 2: And part of that is obviously the AFC West sort 1002 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:28,319 Speaker 2: of stuck up the attention last week and Philly had 1003 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 2: not played well till they played in Oakland. 1004 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 1: But whatever, Vegas. 1005 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 2: But they get a win today a national television and 1006 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 2: they played Buffalo next week, right, so we'll get a 1007 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 2: good view of them next couple of weeks here. 1008 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 1: So we were talking a lot about you know, the 1009 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: Bills game too, like because you're the school of thought 1010 00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: here that you know you got lame. Do you do 1011 00:53:54,320 --> 00:54:00,400 Speaker 1: your rush lane back for Buffalo in that environment, laming Carter, 1012 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: or wait until the season finale the following week also 1013 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:08,680 Speaker 1: gets Washington and play those guys for a half. 1014 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 2: You're not getting the one seed correct in the NFC, 1015 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 2: and it's probably. 1016 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,879 Speaker 1: A lot three seed it's kind of where they're at. 1017 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 2: I I think it really depends on what what Lane wants. Right, 1018 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 2: He's earned the opportunity, I think, to choose how he 1019 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 2: would like to come back in the situation. Right, And 1020 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 2: if he says I need one game before the playoffs, 1021 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 2: give him one game. If he says I need to 1022 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 2: or he wants to play against Buffalo, you play him 1023 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:38,240 Speaker 2: against Buffalo. 1024 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,160 Speaker 1: Right, that's simple. If he says, hey, man, I just 1025 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 1: need one. 1026 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 2: Game to get ready or need a half, like, let 1027 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: me play a half against Washington a week eighteen, you 1028 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 2: let him play a half, like. I think Lane has 1029 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 2: earned the opportunity and the right to tell you what 1030 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:54,560 Speaker 2: he needs for himself to get ready to play. Obviously 1031 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:58,000 Speaker 2: is indict no indicative, But obviously he can only happen 1032 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 2: if you win today. If you win today, you clinch 1033 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,200 Speaker 2: the divisions. A hand T shirt game, right, you get 1034 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 2: a hand T shirt after after today. I think you 1035 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,239 Speaker 2: Lane choose, right. I think Jaalen Carter, you get to 1036 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:10,279 Speaker 2: choose as a team. 1037 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 1: Right. By the way, for Lane, I think Lane has 1038 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: to choose what he needs to get ready for the post. Yah, yeah, 1039 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: I would agree, I would agree. 1040 00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,600 Speaker 2: So maybe it's it's play against buffaloy K team. Maybe 1041 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 2: it's playing half in either game. Like, whatever Lane tells 1042 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,360 Speaker 2: you he needs for his body, he gets to choose. 1043 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 2: He's earned that right to to to choose. 1044 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree with that. Hey. Last thing on 1045 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:37,200 Speaker 1: the Eagles, Uh as they play Washington today, do you 1046 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 1: you brought up the Eagles? When I brought up Eagles defense, 1047 00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 1: you kind of were like surprised at you know, my 1048 00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:48,040 Speaker 1: kind of stance on it. I'll ask you, how would 1049 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 1: you attack their defense? Because it's not like you could 1050 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 1: pick on corners, it's not like they're porus against the run. 1051 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 1: How would you attack them? 1052 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:02,600 Speaker 2: You can't really do anything up the middle, right, so 1053 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 2: now you have to attack edges, sea gaps, up the alleys, 1054 00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 2: things like that, because you know, Jaylen Carter causes just 1055 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 2: so much, so many issues. 1056 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 1: Up and Jordan Davis had a great year. 1057 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 2: And I think that that we've seen, we're seeing defensively 1058 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:26,719 Speaker 2: obviously that edge rushers are important. Uh, but he was 1059 00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 2: inside guys man, They just they they they ruined, They 1060 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 2: ruined games so much easier, so much quicker. 1061 00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 1: And we saw him on Thursday night. Some of the 1062 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 1: guys inside by Byron Murphy was incredible. Dude. 1063 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:42,240 Speaker 2: They make life really really difficult for any offense. 1064 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's ybe I I one of the great 1065 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:51,880 Speaker 1: acquisitions at the deadline was Jalen Phillips because Phillips has 1066 00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 1: has done a good because he's also really good against 1067 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,399 Speaker 1: the run. He does he does and he's very good 1068 00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 1: against the run. So they kind of solidified your defense. 1069 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:04,120 Speaker 1: The night game, to like is a great one. It's 1070 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 1: Bears and Packers, and you know, the shame of it 1071 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 1: for Green Bay is when you lose Mica, you just 1072 00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:18,520 Speaker 1: lost so much, Like it's such a gigantic hole out 1073 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:23,560 Speaker 1: of their defense. Their pass ruts suddenly becomes from uh 1074 00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 1: yeah yeah, you go from being an elite defense to 1075 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 1: a team that can't really rush the pass or without blitz. Yeah. 1076 00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 2: I thought that injury was way more impactful than the 1077 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 2: Mahomes injury for this season, right, Like, I know we 1078 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 2: spent a lot of time talking about Mahomes and that's 1079 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 2: very unfortunate obviously, but the Chiefs were dead anyways, Right, 1080 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:48,160 Speaker 2: I came on here last week and we talked to 1081 00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 2: the brain. I was like the Chargers when that came out, right, 1082 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:51,880 Speaker 2: I told you guys that right. I just the Chiefs 1083 00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:57,960 Speaker 2: are just dead right now, and but the Packers have 1084 00:57:58,080 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 2: a real chance. Right in the NFC, we just talk 1085 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,120 Speaker 2: about how wide open it is. So not only do 1086 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 2: does Parsons just physically him him being there changed defensively 1087 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 2: what what they can do The Bears game A couples 1088 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 2: ago is good example. They played the Bears the other day. 1089 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 2: I remember it's fourteen three at half time, maybe seventeen 1090 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 2: three at halftime, and killb Billyams was bad. He was 1091 00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 2: not the first half of that game. The second half 1092 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:19,520 Speaker 2: of the game. They have to throw the ball. The 1093 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:24,120 Speaker 2: Packers could not. They just could hit him. And now 1094 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 2: you lose Michael Parsons psychologically losing Michael Parsons's huge shoot 1095 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,600 Speaker 2: because he's been playing really well last month this season, 1096 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 2: like he sort of finally got healthy. And the ability 1097 00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 2: to get after the passer, to create issues, to have 1098 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 2: to be double triple team that that opens up opportunities 1099 00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 2: for other guys, and him being out is such a 1100 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 2: is so impactful. So for this game today, I don't 1101 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 2: really know. 1102 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 1: Man. 1103 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 2: Look, the Bears have had good season. As we know, 1104 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 2: KILEB Williams is starting to be the player that people 1105 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 2: thought he could be. But to be fair, he's only 1106 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,400 Speaker 2: completely fifty eight percent of passes. Like, it's not it's 1107 00:58:58,480 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 2: not great. 1108 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 1: Ben Johnson's done an amazing job. 1109 00:59:01,920 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: Correct, But I all but to my point, I do 1110 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 2: think that the Packers without without person, I just I 1111 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:14,520 Speaker 2: don't like them in this game. Watson's a little beat up, 1112 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 2: right I tuk A Craft is out for the season. 1113 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 2: The thing, okay, I'm asking this question. When you watch 1114 00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:28,479 Speaker 2: a Packers offensive play, is there one player person something 1115 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:30,720 Speaker 2: they do that scares you, Like, are you when you 1116 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 2: watch it, you're like, oh, man, I gotta who. 1117 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:32,920 Speaker 1: Gotta worry about that? 1118 00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:35,080 Speaker 2: I thought the answer is nothing, and that's why they 1119 00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 2: are where they are right now. 1120 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they are erratic. I think there are 1121 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 1: times when they can look really good. When they got 1122 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: Jacob's rolling and he's healthy, and he's rolling, and you 1123 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 1: can play off of play action, and their receivers are healthy, 1124 00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 1: they could be formidable. Now, you know, Kraft is a 1125 00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:01,760 Speaker 1: huge loss, but you know, if you get Jacob's healthy 1126 01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:05,760 Speaker 1: rolling downhill and then you know the play action, the 1127 01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:07,440 Speaker 1: Watson Devin Field. 1128 01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 2: You know that you know that they could be decent. 1129 01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 2: But That's sort of my point, right, this feels like 1130 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 2: a team that they're not. They're not scary, man, They're 1131 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 2: not scared. I feel like, no, But I feel like 1132 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 2: if you're going to be a division winner or have 1133 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 2: sort of deep ideas to go in the postseason, you 1134 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:29,560 Speaker 2: have to be scary. And I just don't view them 1135 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 2: as a scary team. 1136 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 1: So no, the scariest team in the in the NFC 1137 01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 1: North is the Lions. Like that to me, they still 1138 01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:44,400 Speaker 1: like put it this way, if they somehow got in, 1139 01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to play the Lions. I mean I 1140 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 1: noticed secondaries beat. 1141 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,960 Speaker 2: Up at all, but there's defense kind of stings well. 1142 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,919 Speaker 1: Their secondary I mean they're hurt and Brian Branch, I mean, yeah, 1143 01:00:55,240 --> 01:01:01,040 Speaker 1: they defense not very good. I I am their front'st good, 1144 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:04,959 Speaker 1: Hutcherson's good. Yeah, they don't. 1145 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 2: They don't strike me as a team that would would 1146 01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 2: be terribly fearful about because they can't. They just they 1147 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 2: they're not gonna. They got a ton of points of 1148 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 2: how scary the was a ton of points. 1149 01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, dude, I like, put this way, Eagles, 1150 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 1: they could go come in and beat the Eagles, Uh, 1151 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 1: I mean they can I mean they are, they came 1152 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 1: was what was it? What was it thirteen sixteen thirteen? 1153 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 1: Or it was a low scoring game. The game here 1154 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 1: a few weeks back, seventeen six, wasn't it? Look at it? 1155 01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 1: Sixteen to nine? Thank you league? Oh man lead the 1156 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:57,080 Speaker 1: lap uh sixteen nine. I mean, you know, and that 1157 01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:00,840 Speaker 1: was a game, the whole game. I was there. This 1158 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,640 Speaker 1: year just feels like every team and they're sing oh. 1159 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, at least I do. 1160 01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 2: I don't find myself attracted to really a team right 1161 01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:10,919 Speaker 2: now that I think is like the overh only things. 1162 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:13,960 Speaker 1: But my point is is that they still have the 1163 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 1: scariest offense, Like they can beat you on offense. I agree, 1164 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:27,720 Speaker 1: Like if you take put the Rams aside, I don't 1165 01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 1: Seattle's side. I don't like that. 1166 01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:31,960 Speaker 2: But I don't like them going as a wildcard team 1167 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:35,160 Speaker 2: through the through the entire playing outside three games in 1168 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 2: a row. 1169 01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:39,000 Speaker 1: No, I don't either. My only point is is that 1170 01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:41,480 Speaker 1: like I still won't want to play it. Like if 1171 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm the Eagles, I go, I prefer not to play it. 1172 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 2: So you prefer to play the Niners if the Eagles. 1173 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 1: So here's the thing. The Niners offense it's you know, 1174 01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 1: it's Shaman and they're there. They got bodies back, and 1175 01:02:55,960 --> 01:03:02,120 Speaker 1: Kittle's playing well, and obviously CMC Jennings and you know, 1176 01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: I mean they're good. Jenny's you know, one of the 1177 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 1: best in the league. 1178 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:06,880 Speaker 2: Can't rush. 1179 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:12,280 Speaker 1: Their defense is awful. Yeah, defenses is worse than the Lions. 1180 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 2: They're a team that it's interesting because they're their defense 1181 01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 2: of numbers are better than their personnel. But that tends 1182 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:27,520 Speaker 2: to really even after postseason, right right, Like, because you 1183 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 2: play your That's what I'm saying, Like the postseason, when 1184 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 2: you play better teams, the lack of pass rush is 1185 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 2: going to show itself to then degree. Right, So like you, yeah, 1186 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 2: so I think that the that's a the Niners, dude. 1187 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 2: Because of the Rams loss on Thursday, the Niners control 1188 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:43,520 Speaker 2: their own destiny. 1189 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:45,840 Speaker 1: For the one seed. It's insane, man. 1190 01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 2: They get the Colts this week, who they should be 1191 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 2: on Monday, and then they play the Bears, I believe, 1192 01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 2: on Sign of football at home and they get to 1193 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 2: host Seattle. I tell you right now, if that game 1194 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:02,800 Speaker 2: Week eighteen is for the NFC Wester or for the 1195 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 2: one seed, I will face Seattle so hard in that game. 1196 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:08,960 Speaker 2: I cannot wait. I will face Sam Donald, So I 1197 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:12,920 Speaker 2: will fate Sam Donald in the Sam Donald has played 1198 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:17,400 Speaker 2: two portant, really important games this season, and yes he 1199 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 2: played well at the end of that game very night, 1200 01:04:20,920 --> 01:04:26,000 Speaker 2: but also threw two horrendous interceptions, again in a big game, so. 1201 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:29,760 Speaker 1: I doubt they were horrible.

And obviously 1238 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:47,720 Speaker 1: you know the two mismatches you heard Saban. In fact, 1239 01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:50,680 Speaker 1: we played a little cut off it. Saban on McAfee 1240 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:54,920 Speaker 1: was like, hey, like what are we doing here? We 1241 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 1: don't use the triple A champion to play in the 1242 01:06:57,880 --> 01:07:01,960 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball World Series, So why are we doing 1243 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 1: that here? Which I thought was right and I loved it. 1244 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:10,440 Speaker 1: The analogy was harsh, but it was apt. I mean 1245 01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:11,520 Speaker 1: it was. 1246 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:15,960 Speaker 2: But you know, this is the system that we have 1247 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 2: set up. And if you want to blame anyone, you 1248 01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:22,080 Speaker 2: need to blame they to see, right, because they didn't 1249 01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:24,800 Speaker 2: they didn't do that. They hold hold they're part of 1250 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:29,800 Speaker 2: this deal, right, Like they had opportunity to, you know, 1251 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 2: to get a team in the playoff and and Duke 1252 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 2: won their championship, right A five lost team, So. 1253 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:39,240 Speaker 1: That is a problem, right, So so blame them. 1254 01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:43,600 Speaker 2: Ok, Look, we all understand what is going to happen 1255 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:45,920 Speaker 2: to the G fives today, and that's fine, that is 1256 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,280 Speaker 2: but that's the system that we have set up and 1257 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 2: the idea, and I think the idea that we've spent 1258 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:55,960 Speaker 2: weeks bashing the G five for it's not this is 1259 01:07:56,240 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 2: none of their fault, right, Like they didn't they they 1260 01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:02,920 Speaker 2: didn't ask for this, right, I think is wrong. I 1261 01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:05,000 Speaker 2: think it's wrong for these these folks that are in 1262 01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:08,400 Speaker 2: positions of power in college football to use their platform 1263 01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:10,680 Speaker 2: to consistently talk down about G five teams. 1264 01:08:10,680 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: I'm with you. 1265 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:12,880 Speaker 2: Look, I agree with everything that everyone has said, like 1266 01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 2: the G five schools are not going to win these games, 1267 01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,920 Speaker 2: They're probably not gonna be overly competitive. I agree with 1268 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 2: all those things. I still think it's wrong that there's 1269 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 2: been such this. This feels like a movement to bash 1270 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:30,080 Speaker 2: them for participating in this tournament. So look, would I'd 1271 01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:32,760 Speaker 2: rather see Nord aim and BYU. Absolutely, I think those 1272 01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 2: are better games. I think that would give us a 1273 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,040 Speaker 2: better opportunity to find a champion. But this is the 1274 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,360 Speaker 2: system we have set up. And spending an entire week 1275 01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 2: or two bashing the G five programs I think is wrong. 1276 01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,880 Speaker 2: I don't know how that makes you know, our support 1277 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 2: better to spend you know, your time and energy talking 1278 01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 2: about Triple A teams like JAMU went twelve to one 1279 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 2: man like that's their jobs to win the games on 1280 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 2: their schedule. 1281 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:59,200 Speaker 1: What they did, Wow, standing up for a little guy. 1282 01:08:59,360 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 6: I like it. 1283 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 2: I Look, I'm not offender than being in the playoff either, 1284 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:07,479 Speaker 2: but I'm not going to spend two weeks to bash 1285 01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:09,640 Speaker 2: them for that. It's not their fault. This is if 1286 01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:11,840 Speaker 2: you want to bash themone, bash the system right to 1287 01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:12,839 Speaker 2: put them in place. 1288 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:16,040 Speaker 1: Here the fault say I think that's what he's doing. 1289 01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:17,920 Speaker 1: I mean, but but it feels like it feels like 1290 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:21,439 Speaker 1: these are direct. The more this goes on, we'll spend 1291 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:24,120 Speaker 1: on game dayDay and we'll talk about it. The more 1292 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:25,439 Speaker 1: they do this, the more it does for like a 1293 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:29,600 Speaker 1: direct attack right on on on them, on the on 1294 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:35,040 Speaker 1: the teams themselves, the players themselves. I don't know, I don't, 1295 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 1: do you really you really think that, you really think 1296 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:39,920 Speaker 1: it's the direct attack because the more, the more, the 1297 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 1: more that the more. Look, I get it the first 1298 01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:45,479 Speaker 1: couple of times, but like calling them Triple A teams, 1299 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 1: like come on like that, that feels they know, I mean, 1300 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:55,200 Speaker 1: they don't belong. They like football, you know, I know 1301 01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:58,720 Speaker 1: you know, so I'm not you know, saying you don't 1302 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:03,599 Speaker 1: or anything. It it's just a disparity is so great. 1303 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:07,360 Speaker 1: I agree. I don't disagree, you know. I mean, the 1304 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:11,919 Speaker 1: concept of them involved in it is kind of foolish, 1305 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 1: one of them. 1306 01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:16,560 Speaker 2: If one plays a close game today, that's gonna it 1307 01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,320 Speaker 2: was like a ruin the internet. It really will because 1308 01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:21,920 Speaker 2: it's they'll be like, see I told you so, and 1309 01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:25,160 Speaker 2: there's no there's no told you so. Because my my 1310 01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 2: thing has always been again like the goal of this 1311 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,479 Speaker 2: whole thing is to find a champion, right, and my 1312 01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:34,160 Speaker 2: argument for for excluding the group of five teams is 1313 01:10:34,240 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 2: that we're not. They don't help us find a champion. 1314 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:39,479 Speaker 2: And people put to Boys and to State like Boys 1315 01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:42,000 Speaker 2: Day was a top fifteen sh team ten team the 1316 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:44,920 Speaker 2: entire season. They went to Oregon and lost by three. 1317 01:10:45,640 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 2: JMU and Tulane have not been top twenty five teams 1318 01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 2: most of the season. There's a big difference between that 1319 01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:54,600 Speaker 2: and and what Boise was last season. And it's not 1320 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:57,720 Speaker 2: a fair comparison really, you know when uh, you know 1321 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:00,519 Speaker 2: years back, you know u s yeah for Utah. But 1322 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:03,600 Speaker 2: the difference in the UCF Auburn game which everyone points to, 1323 01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:06,240 Speaker 2: the UCF was undefeated and they beat Auburn, And is 1324 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 2: that Auburn in that bowl game? It just lost the 1325 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:12,760 Speaker 2: championship game. The loser of a conference championship game often 1326 01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 2: loses their bowl game. Man, you know what the motivation 1327 01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:16,640 Speaker 2: of that game is? Like, No, this is different. You 1328 01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:19,639 Speaker 2: had the full motivation, the full win of preparation from 1329 01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:22,639 Speaker 2: old miss and organ in these games, but just sort 1330 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 2: of enough of the like attack, I just I'm kind 1331 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:26,120 Speaker 2: of over it. 1332 01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 1: We spent two weeks doing this. Now it's game day. 1333 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,679 Speaker 1: Can we just talk about the games? Now? Yeah, that's fair. 1334 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:37,040 Speaker 1: That's that's fair. And to your point, like you want 1335 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:39,479 Speaker 1: to be excited for him, like you don't want to 1336 01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:42,960 Speaker 1: go into it. I mean, it's bizarre the way the 1337 01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:46,760 Speaker 1: schedule is because A at Miami is the is the 1338 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:49,760 Speaker 1: crown jewel that DIDs the best game, and then you 1339 01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:55,640 Speaker 1: got these two other games in great venues, right, and 1340 01:11:56,160 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: i'd all miss and A Eugene And you want to 1341 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 1: get excited for right, Like you just don't want to 1342 01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 1: be like going in with its sour attitude. Correct. 1343 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:06,840 Speaker 2: And you know people are complaining I've seen that that 1344 01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:09,720 Speaker 2: because I put the best game early. They did that 1345 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,600 Speaker 2: because the NFL is on tonight, guys. That's why, like 1346 01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,080 Speaker 2: the best game is in the slot where the most 1347 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 2: eyeballs should theoretically be watching it, because the NFL is 1348 01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:21,840 Speaker 2: on tonight. And as mucial as I love my Ducks, 1349 01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:24,320 Speaker 2: I understand that people are watching the biggest game the 1350 01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:26,160 Speaker 2: Bears have played in years. 1351 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:27,600 Speaker 1: You know, Like I get it. 1352 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 2: I get if you're watching Division, so I get why 1353 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:36,680 Speaker 2: fans would tune in tonight to watch you know, the 1354 01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:40,000 Speaker 2: game between you know, the Bears and Packers. So I 1355 01:12:40,080 --> 01:12:42,400 Speaker 2: get what you know, those the the n plus orchands 1356 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:43,760 Speaker 2: of Western You can't play an early game on the 1357 01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 2: West Coast. It's unfair to orchand they're gonna host the game. 1358 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:49,759 Speaker 2: They can play nine am local time. So I'm excited 1359 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 2: to watch all the games today. But obviously it's just 1360 01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:53,080 Speaker 2: to day of ball. 1361 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:56,360 Speaker 1: Man. I told my wife, like I it's its. 1362 01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:57,560 Speaker 2: Game day, baby, let's go. 1363 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:03,720 Speaker 1: How do you It's funny because the schedule, it's a 1364 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:09,519 Speaker 1: perfect day for college football playoffs. Yep. And but you're right, 1365 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:13,360 Speaker 1: like the NFL, man, it's just it's just the way, 1366 01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 1: just because it's so big, it's you know, it's the 1367 01:13:18,880 --> 01:13:19,400 Speaker 1: death Star. 1368 01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:22,519 Speaker 2: Well, collegeable could have played two games yesterday and two 1369 01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 2: games today like that. You know, they could have done 1370 01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:26,559 Speaker 2: that they wanted to. But yeah, I know I thought 1371 01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:28,600 Speaker 2: about that. Do you play one, a six and a 1372 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:31,919 Speaker 2: nine type of thing yesterday? 1373 01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:35,439 Speaker 1: Yes? Yesterday? Yeah? And you put the West Coast game 1374 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:38,760 Speaker 1: the later game, right, so it's you're not gonna you're 1375 01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:40,360 Speaker 1: not gonna play at the same time, so you're gonna 1376 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:42,840 Speaker 1: try to stagger right, right, So you put the you 1377 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 1: put the Laker on at nine. 1378 01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:49,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would work. But you know, collegeable doesn't think 1379 01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 2: like that. They think the NFL should move for that, 1380 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:55,440 Speaker 2: which is never gonna happen. So it's just it's unfortunately 1381 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:57,360 Speaker 2: that's the way they think of it sometimes. But look, 1382 01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:01,240 Speaker 2: the games are on. We're gonna watch them. We're gonna 1383 01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 2: watch the Bears, Packers play, We're gonna watch the Eagles 1384 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 2: and Commanders play, and uh, we're gonna spend a day. 1385 01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:09,120 Speaker 2: I'm not in the college basketball as much, but the 1386 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:11,960 Speaker 2: college basketball is because basketball slay today. 1387 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:14,680 Speaker 1: This is a lot happening today. Yeah, it's great. I 1388 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:18,599 Speaker 1: still I mean football mode. I just can't. 1389 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:21,320 Speaker 2: I can't stay watching college basketball. I think I retired 1390 01:14:21,400 --> 01:14:23,040 Speaker 2: this week for the for a little bit. I tried 1391 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:24,560 Speaker 2: to watch one game. I just I couldn't do it. 1392 01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:28,040 Speaker 2: It was it was it was so poorly, so poorly played. 1393 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:33,920 Speaker 1: Really, I still like college basketball. Actually I'd like it more. 1394 01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 1: And let me ask it is because game well coming up, 1395 01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:42,240 Speaker 1: we'll talk about speaking of whop uh, I mean, all 1396 01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:46,720 Speaker 1: the talk about the NBA Cup, I weigh in on it. 1397 01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:49,760 Speaker 1: Let me hear what your thoughts are. We'll discuss that 1398 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:54,040 Speaker 1: as well. And the brain will join us next hour 1399 01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 1: where the fella is right here on Fox Sports Radio. 1400 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:12,439 Speaker 1: Say no, Fox Sports Radio, welcome back Fellas and Jeff 1401 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:19,640 Speaker 1: and uh As. We uh hang out on a beautiful 1402 01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:27,400 Speaker 1: Fox footballs Saturday. So the NBA Cup, my man, let 1403 01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:30,600 Speaker 1: me just let's just get your kind of overall you 1404 01:15:30,720 --> 01:15:34,360 Speaker 1: want it, like I listen, we won't get it. I 1405 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 1: don't know how you feel about it in season tournament. 1406 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 1: You know, we all understand it, trying to replicate the 1407 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:42,599 Speaker 1: champions League and and and I get it if there 1408 01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:47,120 Speaker 1: were more teams involved, like if there was an international thing, 1409 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:51,080 Speaker 1: it would work somewhat, I guess, But the way it's 1410 01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:56,400 Speaker 1: the way it's constructed, it's kind of baseless. And the 1411 01:15:56,560 --> 01:16:01,920 Speaker 1: real issue is it gets completely lost to like you're 1412 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:04,639 Speaker 1: doing it now on the teeth of like the NFL 1413 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:07,719 Speaker 1: and football, and it's just kind of weird. 1414 01:16:08,960 --> 01:16:11,639 Speaker 2: And it believe it was in Vegas, right, so you're 1415 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,679 Speaker 2: not even like at a home site. So it feels 1416 01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 2: very it feels not very personal right to win the championship. 1417 01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 1: It feels fake, is what it does. Like it's a 1418 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:23,720 Speaker 1: try hard piece. 1419 01:16:23,840 --> 01:16:31,000 Speaker 2: Look, I certainly think that building camaraderie through this tournament 1420 01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:33,759 Speaker 2: can be helpful for your team, right, I mean, clearly, 1421 01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:37,320 Speaker 2: you know, these teams are having an opportunity to be 1422 01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:40,599 Speaker 2: together to sort of win something together in the middle 1423 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:44,280 Speaker 2: of the season, but it's meaningless for the rest of 1424 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:46,040 Speaker 2: the season, Like the Knicks are knocking it out win 1425 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:48,120 Speaker 2: the championship, the Lakers, I mean, my team won won 1426 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,760 Speaker 2: a banner whatever this was two three years ago. It's 1427 01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:54,720 Speaker 2: unimportant for that. I think if you're if you look 1428 01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:56,600 Speaker 2: at it from the lens of like team building and 1429 01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 2: just sort of the idea that you know, we can 1430 01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:01,120 Speaker 2: have an opportunity to to win something together as a 1431 01:17:01,160 --> 01:17:04,679 Speaker 2: team again experience of what that feels like to play 1432 01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 2: better in the postseason. Sure, but the Knicks had a 1433 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:09,160 Speaker 2: deep postseason run last year, right, Like they know what 1434 01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:11,880 Speaker 2: that feels like without having to play. And the tournament 1435 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:17,040 Speaker 2: it felt like this was designed originally for teams that 1436 01:17:17,200 --> 01:17:20,000 Speaker 2: are not going to see the postseason, and this was 1437 01:17:20,040 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 2: going to be an opportunity for them to make more money, 1438 01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:26,519 Speaker 2: right and being an opportunity to play the national spotlight. Instead, 1439 01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:30,719 Speaker 2: you got Spurs who have not been in the postseason. 1440 01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:32,400 Speaker 2: But we know because Webby's been hurt and the roster 1441 01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:32,880 Speaker 2: has been. 1442 01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 1: Great against the Knicks who were there last year, right, 1443 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:37,760 Speaker 1: And so I think they were hoping this was going 1444 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:42,160 Speaker 1: to be like Portland against someone in the East, like 1445 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:44,840 Speaker 1: just teams that were not expected to be there. 1446 01:17:44,880 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 2: But just it's hasn't been. It hasn't been that case 1447 01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:49,680 Speaker 2: at all. It's been Lakers and Knicks. Like it's not 1448 01:17:49,760 --> 01:17:53,280 Speaker 2: what NBA I think wanted this to be. Well, and 1449 01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 2: I also think it's not for now. 1450 01:17:57,040 --> 01:18:01,360 Speaker 1: This is has nothing to do with Aren't Day and 1451 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:06,400 Speaker 1: more about establishing something for the future, right, Like that's 1452 01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 1: I think this is more about, you know, hey, let's 1453 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:15,280 Speaker 1: try to establish this tournament and in ten years when 1454 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:18,759 Speaker 1: there's another you know, there's another generation of basketball fans. 1455 01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:22,439 Speaker 1: They've grown up with it. It's hard to come into sports, 1456 01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:26,880 Speaker 1: make it change. Care all about this? Well now they don't. 1457 01:18:27,280 --> 01:18:29,840 Speaker 1: But like I don't know that a lot Like who's 1458 01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:33,479 Speaker 1: to say when future generations will find interesting. 1459 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:40,200 Speaker 2: I mean I even argue that the new generations that 1460 01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:42,679 Speaker 2: actually come in the NBA with a lot more money 1461 01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:44,639 Speaker 2: in their pockets because of NIL will care less about 1462 01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,680 Speaker 2: winning some money in the NBA Cup. Like part of 1463 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 2: the rangement for this was that and Lebron talked about 1464 01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:54,920 Speaker 2: this when the Lakers won, like he wasn't he wasn't 1465 01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:56,080 Speaker 2: excited that they won. 1466 01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:58,320 Speaker 1: Well, he was excited they won for. 1467 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:00,719 Speaker 2: Themselves, but he was excited that a lot of guys 1468 01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:02,519 Speaker 2: at the end of his bench, she's got a lot 1469 01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:04,840 Speaker 2: more money in their pockets that they're like that need 1470 01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 2: you know, they need to fire one thousand dollars Like, Yeah. 1471 01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm not even told about the players because this is 1472 01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:12,599 Speaker 1: about the fans. Like the fans are going to adopt 1473 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: the fan doesn't care that the players got to love. 1474 01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:18,559 Speaker 1: I think you're talking about are the players gonna care more? 1475 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the fans. I think they're they're doing 1476 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:26,160 Speaker 1: this not for the now generation, but for the future. 1477 01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 1: NBA fans like to grow something. They're trying to grow it. 1478 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:35,439 Speaker 1: You can't. Sports is something that has that it's hard 1479 01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 1: to put new stuff in. It's got to take a minute. 1480 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:46,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know fans will ever care about this 1481 01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:51,720 Speaker 2: unless it there's some sort of correlation to winning after this, right, 1482 01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 2: Like if we find out that the champions of this 1483 01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:58,200 Speaker 2: were going to NBA Finals every year, like I think 1484 01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:00,120 Speaker 2: they'd be a lot more in But it's just it 1485 01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,599 Speaker 2: just hasn't been that case yet, and so I think 1486 01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:04,760 Speaker 2: that we're not going to see the buy in from 1487 01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:06,679 Speaker 2: fans until that happens. 1488 01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 1: See, I don't think they my fig the fatal flaw 1489 01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:16,040 Speaker 1: is the same teams, right, Like it's the same teams. 1490 01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 1: What makes the Champions League fun is that it incorporates 1491 01:20:21,760 --> 01:20:25,960 Speaker 1: the four biggest European leagues. So if you add a 1492 01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 1: global kind of component to it, the greatest teams in 1493 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:35,120 Speaker 1: Europe play NBA teams, all right, Like I could see 1494 01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:39,760 Speaker 1: that being interesting. Yeah, I don't think anyone will do 1495 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:40,400 Speaker 1: than this. Ever. 1496 01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:42,240 Speaker 2: I think it's it's more likely this is no longer 1497 01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:44,400 Speaker 2: a thing in ten years than people care about it. 1498 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 1: Maybe. I mean, you know, I can see that coming up. 1499 01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:53,960 Speaker 1: The brain will join us and we go back into 1500 01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:59,200 Speaker 1: a big day of football.

It's a Chinese food day as usual, 1517 01:22:12,439 --> 01:22:14,760 Speaker 1: and day to watch sports. I remember as a kid, 1518 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:18,080 Speaker 1: the Low Hullble used to be on everything. Yes, it 1519 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:20,439 Speaker 1: was like it was like always UCA playing that gig 1520 01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:23,600 Speaker 1: because they were they were, you know, disappointing during the season. 1521 01:22:25,240 --> 01:22:27,320 Speaker 2: And I got to watch a Low Hall Bowl. 1522 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:29,639 Speaker 1: But now we have them. We got three NFL games. 1523 01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:32,400 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, the couple quarterbacks hurt, so the games are not 1524 01:22:32,520 --> 01:22:36,720 Speaker 2: as good as they potentially could have been. And uh, yeah, 1525 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:38,519 Speaker 2: it's become a football day now. I mean, I know 1526 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 2: the NBA tries to own it. Unfortunately, there are NBA 1527 01:22:41,040 --> 01:22:43,200 Speaker 2: games on Christmas, but the NFL is like no, no, no, no, 1528 01:22:43,400 --> 01:22:44,240 Speaker 2: we're going to own the day. 1529 01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:48,479 Speaker 1: Sorry. No, it's amazing, right like they it was. I 1530 01:22:48,760 --> 01:22:52,920 Speaker 1: was having this discnversating yesterday. Christmas Day was the NBA day. 1531 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:57,240 Speaker 1: It was a huge NBA day. It was first and 1532 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 1: foremost NBA. I remember when I was in New York covering. 1533 01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:04,960 Speaker 1: I was a sports writer in New York. You know, 1534 01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,880 Speaker 1: I would I was younger and didn't have a family, 1535 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:12,439 Speaker 1: so I would do the Chicago Christmas Day games or 1536 01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:16,479 Speaker 1: the Knicks games at the Garden, and you know, it 1537 01:23:16,600 --> 01:23:20,080 Speaker 1: was a big deal. And then football said no, the 1538 01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:23,920 Speaker 1: NFL said, now it's hard day we're playing and uh, 1539 01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:27,920 Speaker 1: and now it's you know, just like Thanksgiving Christmas the 1540 01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:28,439 Speaker 1: same way. 1541 01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:32,280 Speaker 2: It's so funny because you know, I see people say 1542 01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:34,479 Speaker 2: stuff like, well, the NFL is getting too fat, and 1543 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:36,120 Speaker 2: they're gonna get little pump fat. 1544 01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 1: You know, pas gets slough. I don't. I don't think so. 1545 01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:41,720 Speaker 2: I think that until the ratings show otherwise, which it 1546 01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:46,920 Speaker 2: just hasn't shown, that people are gonna keep watching man 1547 01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:47,599 Speaker 2: in the NFL. 1548 01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:48,639 Speaker 1: The NFL is king. 1549 01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:51,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, the ratings keep showing that it doesn't matter if 1550 01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 2: they're good bad. I mean, we're gonna have a game, 1551 01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:57,080 Speaker 2: you know, on Christmas between the Broncos and Chiefs without 1552 01:23:57,240 --> 01:24:01,160 Speaker 2: without Patrick Mahomes, people are still gonna watch. Everybody still 1553 01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 2: gonna watch. I agree as much. And think about it. 1554 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:07,560 Speaker 2: You know, the Chiefs are out of it. There's no 1555 01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:10,840 Speaker 2: my Homes and that thing will outdraw whatever else is 1556 01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:15,120 Speaker 2: all that night. Yeah, it's a wonderful life. I mean, 1557 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 2: I don't know whatever. You know what I'm saying, I've 1558 01:24:19,040 --> 01:24:23,720 Speaker 2: used it. Well whatever about sports, you know, it's so funny, man. 1559 01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:29,640 Speaker 2: Uh people people say things like, well, so and so 1560 01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:33,160 Speaker 2: doesn't rate as high as it should baseball basketball, it. 1561 01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:35,439 Speaker 1: Still rates higher than the rest of everything else is 1562 01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:38,920 Speaker 1: on TV. So it might not be the NFL, it's 1563 01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:41,120 Speaker 1: still better than everything else though, so like like I 1564 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:44,000 Speaker 1: never understand that, well, NBA, the ratings are down, the 1565 01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:46,080 Speaker 1: right is still better than general hospital, Like they're better 1566 01:24:46,439 --> 01:24:48,600 Speaker 1: better anything else, Like, look, what are we doing?

We're already starting 1620 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 1: to produce different things. 1621 01:27:32,760 --> 01:27:35,320 Speaker 2: And it's very fascinating to see if it's if it 1622 01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:41,760 Speaker 2: is it's a barstool thing, barstool Netflix, if if it's gonna. 1623 01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:45,000 Speaker 1: Work, Oh dunkin man, she's great, like, you know, kind 1624 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:48,519 Speaker 1: of curious. Yeah, well it just opens up. Listen, everybody 1625 01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:52,920 Speaker 1: wants a piece of sports, right like, so yeah, I 1626 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:58,080 Speaker 1: mean I was having this conversations earlier before the show 1627 01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:01,320 Speaker 1: when we do our project that I l and there 1628 01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 1: were congressional hearings on youth sports, right yeah, And what's 1629 01:28:07,160 --> 01:28:10,920 Speaker 1: happening is fascinating. And obviously the price. Everybody was talking 1630 01:28:10,920 --> 01:28:13,840 Speaker 1: about the cost, and you know, and you and I 1631 01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:17,120 Speaker 1: touched on a little bit earlier about the price of 1632 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:22,519 Speaker 1: youth sports. But reality, what we're doing is it's become 1633 01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:28,640 Speaker 1: so huge in our society that we're creating a professionalization 1634 01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:32,960 Speaker 1: of sports really from all down. Like we're talking about 1635 01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:37,240 Speaker 1: college football, but high school the same way. Like they're 1636 01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:43,360 Speaker 1: already teams high school teams that play national schedules, Like 1637 01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:48,880 Speaker 1: the big programs in high school will play there three 1638 01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:53,080 Speaker 1: four non league games that are against national teams. I mean, 1639 01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:56,280 Speaker 1: they'll jump on airplanes. My high school play a team 1640 01:28:56,439 --> 01:29:01,400 Speaker 1: from Philly this year. Yes, we play Norman Conflict. I 1641 01:29:01,439 --> 01:29:04,719 Speaker 1: think it was yes, yes, yeah. We wind up winning 1642 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:08,000 Speaker 1: the state championship and I think we've beat them by 1643 01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:10,880 Speaker 1: one at home. It was good game. But like, yeah, 1644 01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:13,599 Speaker 1: we we we do. I mean our mind school does 1645 01:29:13,640 --> 01:29:17,680 Speaker 1: it all the time. Yeah, yeah, there there is, Like 1646 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 1: that's that's where we're creating this whole world of sports 1647 01:29:21,400 --> 01:29:25,720 Speaker 1: because it's just monstrous, right like, and so everybody wants 1648 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:28,640 Speaker 1: a piece of it. The streamers want a piece of it, 1649 01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:33,160 Speaker 1: and it's it's basically, you know, kind of moving. And 1650 01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:38,640 Speaker 1: it's funny because our system are we go from our 1651 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:43,160 Speaker 1: networks to streaming and in reality, we're just going to 1652 01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:48,280 Speaker 1: replicate the network model on streaming. You know that. 1653 01:29:49,680 --> 01:29:55,720 Speaker 2: Yes, but but are people going to to realize the 1654 01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:58,040 Speaker 2: switch has been made and started watching. 1655 01:29:59,479 --> 01:30:00,880 Speaker 6: On what? 1656 01:30:01,160 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 1: Like, are people gonna realize the switch of the Maine 1657 01:30:02,720 --> 01:30:05,320 Speaker 1: They're gonna start watching? Yeah, at some point everything will 1658 01:30:05,360 --> 01:30:10,080 Speaker 1: be yes, yes, I mean because at some point the 1659 01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:15,479 Speaker 1: network's morph into what they are right Like they're they're 1660 01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:20,320 Speaker 1: all just apps, right like, they're all everything is digital. 1661 01:30:21,080 --> 01:30:25,880 Speaker 1: So you know, it's just it's just everything will just 1662 01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:29,360 Speaker 1: become streaming. Everybody's got streaming outlets now anyway, right, Fox 1663 01:30:29,880 --> 01:30:34,120 Speaker 1: all local Fox has streaming. You know, it's the digital world, 1664 01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:39,800 Speaker 1: and it'll just become like the network model. And it 1665 01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:43,599 Speaker 1: goes from network where there's a finite amount of channels, 1666 01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:47,400 Speaker 1: to cable where there's a lot of channels, but now 1667 01:30:47,560 --> 01:30:52,160 Speaker 1: to streaming where there's infinite choices. But the big dogs 1668 01:30:52,200 --> 01:30:53,200 Speaker 1: are still the big dogs. 1669 01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just I'm I'm you know, very fascinated by 1670 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:02,800 Speaker 2: what what this will look like for sports in the future. 1671 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,360 Speaker 1: It's just more and more and more, right, I mean 1672 01:31:07,400 --> 01:31:10,080 Speaker 1: that's kind of how I'm looking at it. I mean, 1673 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:12,560 Speaker 1: like they're gonna expand the college football playoffs, right, so 1674 01:31:13,320 --> 01:31:16,160 Speaker 1: they need to do that. Like last night was a 1675 01:31:16,280 --> 01:31:19,880 Speaker 1: great It was a great game. It was great theater, 1676 01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:26,080 Speaker 1: the game was terrific, the setting was great. I mean, 1677 01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, other than unless you're an Alaholma fan and 1678 01:31:29,360 --> 01:31:36,040 Speaker 1: you're devastated, it was fun. So I could see them easily, 1679 01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:39,719 Speaker 1: you know, just expanding this whole playoff. 1680 01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:43,519 Speaker 2: Well, they're expanding the playoff because Notre Dame didn't make it, 1681 01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:46,439 Speaker 2: but also do you see all the news that Notre Dame. 1682 01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:49,240 Speaker 2: I guess i'd signed a memorandum of understanding where that 1683 01:31:49,360 --> 01:31:51,599 Speaker 2: they're a top twelve team, they're automatically the playoff, which 1684 01:31:52,280 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 2: I can't believe that they. I mean, the amount of 1685 01:31:57,120 --> 01:31:59,800 Speaker 2: have your when you're kicking it too for Notre Dame. 1686 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:01,880 Speaker 2: The fact they don't have to join the conference and 1687 01:32:01,920 --> 01:32:04,240 Speaker 2: then they get a guaranteed spot they in the top twelve. 1688 01:32:05,800 --> 01:32:11,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's Yeah, there's no sympathy from people now. Again, 1689 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:14,439 Speaker 1: I think they got hosed. But the reason why, I 1690 01:32:14,520 --> 01:32:16,760 Speaker 1: get the reason why, you know, this whole thing was 1691 01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:19,600 Speaker 1: a shot to say, dude, like you guys got to 1692 01:32:19,760 --> 01:32:23,280 Speaker 1: join the conference last year, you got twenty million dollars 1693 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:25,800 Speaker 1: that you didn't have to split up. Everybody else had 1694 01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:28,880 Speaker 1: to split up, split the money. You didn't have to 1695 01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:32,320 Speaker 1: split the twenty million. That's what this whole thing's about. Correct. 1696 01:32:32,360 --> 01:32:36,760 Speaker 1: I don't agree, Yeah, you know, but I think they 1697 01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:40,240 Speaker 1: expand it because it's just gonna be worth expanding. And 1698 01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:44,680 Speaker 1: as the bowl games become less and less important, you 1699 01:32:44,880 --> 01:32:49,360 Speaker 1: just incorporate some of them in the in the playoff. 1700 01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:54,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I imagine that's what happens, you know. I still 1701 01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:57,160 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what manute. I'm maybe I'm just old school. 1702 01:32:57,160 --> 01:32:59,280 Speaker 2: I still like watching these ball games. Maybe it because 1703 01:32:59,280 --> 01:33:01,200 Speaker 2: I want to the dude during the day. But like 1704 01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:03,480 Speaker 2: yesterday eleven am. 1705 01:33:03,560 --> 01:33:07,880 Speaker 1: I watched it. Well but yeah on a teal field 1706 01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:12,400 Speaker 1: and Myrtle Beach, like, so yeah, I'm starting for enough 1707 01:33:12,439 --> 01:33:13,040 Speaker 1: at a halftime. 1708 01:33:13,200 --> 01:33:15,920 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it wasn't a great game I had it 1709 01:33:16,040 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 2: was on me. But I'm I'm I'm, I'm in on 1710 01:33:20,760 --> 01:33:22,600 Speaker 2: on the bowl game still, even though you know. 1711 01:33:23,160 --> 01:33:26,760 Speaker 1: At c State CJ. Bailey. I mean, I'll take some 1712 01:33:27,439 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 1: Friday afternoon bowl games. I love the day game. I 1713 01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:36,840 Speaker 1: get football during the weekday is awesome. I I always 1714 01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 1: love that stuff, So I agree with it. Sign me up. 1715 01:33:41,280 --> 01:33:43,040 Speaker 2: I'll take I'll take as much football as I can get, 1716 01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:44,760 Speaker 2: and I'm never I'm never. 1717 01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:47,960 Speaker 1: Turning it down. Yeah, I mean, that's kind of how 1718 01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:51,800 Speaker 1: we are. But I wonder what the future holds for them, 1719 01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:55,760 Speaker 1: right That's the that's the biggest thing, is like, what 1720 01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:59,959 Speaker 1: what's the what's the future going to hold for ballgame? 1721 01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:04,840 Speaker 1: When it comes to players opting out and teams declining 1722 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:06,120 Speaker 1: to go to a bawl. 1723 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:11,240 Speaker 2: You know, I still feel that if Notre Dame had 1724 01:34:12,880 --> 01:34:17,400 Speaker 2: had forty hours to decide they would have gone to 1725 01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:17,960 Speaker 2: a ball game. 1726 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:25,200 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, cooler heads, Yeah yeah, I'm with you on that. 1727 01:34:25,400 --> 01:34:28,840 Speaker 1: All right, So we're gonna get the brain up and 1728 01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:31,560 Speaker 1: then we're gonna go through all of the all of 1729 01:34:31,640 --> 01:34:36,160 Speaker 1: the weekend, beginning with Miami and A and M and 1730 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:41,000 Speaker 1: then through your bulls, so real quick before before we 1731 01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:42,559 Speaker 1: get to that, I do I do want to ask 1732 01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:48,160 Speaker 1: about Oregon in this sense. So what's the what's beyond 1733 01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:53,439 Speaker 1: this game? How do you feel about them? Making it? 1734 01:34:54,120 --> 01:34:58,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, making that run feel great. I think it's a 1735 01:34:58,200 --> 01:35:01,200 Speaker 2: very balanced team. I think that we have shown this 1736 01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:03,479 Speaker 2: season the ability to win in many different ways, which 1737 01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:06,479 Speaker 2: is hugely important to success. Right Like, we've won, we've 1738 01:35:06,479 --> 01:35:09,439 Speaker 2: won shootouts, we won close games. I trust our team 1739 01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:11,760 Speaker 2: and at the end of games, which is again I think, 1740 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:14,559 Speaker 2: look at Dante Moore are kicking our Our kicker has 1741 01:35:14,560 --> 01:35:17,320 Speaker 2: been great this year. Our defense does not allow explosive 1742 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:18,920 Speaker 2: plays that we do the things that we have to do. Look, 1743 01:35:19,080 --> 01:35:22,920 Speaker 2: Texas tack will be hard for us. I think we're 1744 01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:24,920 Speaker 2: overall better team do I mean, you obviously win those 1745 01:35:24,960 --> 01:35:26,800 Speaker 2: games and once again the semi finals, who knows we're 1746 01:35:26,800 --> 01:35:29,720 Speaker 2: gonna play Indiana potentially, like they're a very good football team, 1747 01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:31,479 Speaker 2: as we know they would be us this season. But 1748 01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:32,840 Speaker 2: I think in this year we have a good a 1749 01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:35,679 Speaker 2: chance to anyone to be near the near the finish 1750 01:35:35,760 --> 01:35:39,519 Speaker 2: line at least, so guarantees obviously, but I'm okay with 1751 01:35:39,560 --> 01:35:41,200 Speaker 2: where we're at right now, especially if our wide receivers 1752 01:35:41,240 --> 01:35:43,080 Speaker 2: come back healthy, which appears that they are today. 1753 01:35:44,800 --> 01:35:50,960 Speaker 1: So how many teams do you think can actually win it? 1754 01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:57,599 Speaker 2: I think there's three. I think it's Ohio State, Indiana, 1755 01:35:57,720 --> 01:36:02,360 Speaker 2: Georgia team, right, I mean, who who are you? Who's well? 1756 01:36:02,400 --> 01:36:04,240 Speaker 1: I think Texas Tech. I like Texas Tech. 1757 01:36:05,200 --> 01:36:10,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, we disagree on I think their offense you less 1758 01:36:10,120 --> 01:36:12,160 Speaker 2: than ideal agains the better teams they play. Their offense 1759 01:36:12,160 --> 01:36:14,479 Speaker 2: has not been as good. Uh and they're really bad 1760 01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:16,720 Speaker 2: in the red zone, which which really concerns because if 1761 01:36:16,760 --> 01:36:20,599 Speaker 2: you can't score touchdowns, you know the defense is great, 1762 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 2: but just remember to the final score in some of 1763 01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:24,840 Speaker 2: these games is not really thinking of how the game went. 1764 01:36:24,880 --> 01:36:27,840 Speaker 2: Remember Utah Texas Tech was a three point game. I 1765 01:36:27,920 --> 01:36:31,479 Speaker 2: believe in the fourth quarter, like their defense is keeps 1766 01:36:31,560 --> 01:36:33,040 Speaker 2: him in a lot of games and really allows them 1767 01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:36,760 Speaker 2: feel position wise for their offense to have success if 1768 01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:38,719 Speaker 2: they run up, but look, Oregon will be the best 1769 01:36:39,160 --> 01:36:42,720 Speaker 2: offense they've played all season. Be hard to score, but 1770 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:46,280 Speaker 2: look to be fair, Organ's also played some rego defenses 1771 01:36:46,439 --> 01:36:48,639 Speaker 2: this year and managed to put up yards in points, 1772 01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:50,720 Speaker 2: So it'd be a really really fun game. 1773 01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:56,400 Speaker 1: I can't wait. I kind of believe that. You know, 1774 01:36:56,800 --> 01:37:01,639 Speaker 1: why can't Oregon win? I mean we can. 1775 01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:03,200 Speaker 2: I think I just think that things have to kind 1776 01:37:03,240 --> 01:37:06,400 Speaker 2: of go right for us. And I think it's a 1777 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:08,120 Speaker 2: long tournament. I mean that's part of it too. Look, 1778 01:37:08,120 --> 01:37:09,439 Speaker 2: I just don't know. If it's a long tournament, I 1779 01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:11,960 Speaker 2: think it's hard to pick. Winners are depot, will be tested. 1780 01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:14,559 Speaker 2: I gotta see. I just have to come back healthy. 1781 01:37:14,640 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 2: Dude like, yeah, well you're not. 1782 01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:19,400 Speaker 1: You're right, You're not beating Indiana, Ohio State or Georgia 1783 01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:20,519 Speaker 1: without those kids. 1784 01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:23,559 Speaker 2: So it appears that two are back today, the two 1785 01:37:23,600 --> 01:37:26,240 Speaker 2: I expect to play. Evan Stewart has not played in 1786 01:37:26,280 --> 01:37:27,760 Speaker 2: a year. I don't know what Organ fans keep thinking 1787 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:28,320 Speaker 2: he's gonna play. 1788 01:37:28,320 --> 01:37:28,600 Speaker 1: He's not. 1789 01:37:29,720 --> 01:37:32,640 Speaker 2: But the ability to have those guys back in the 1790 01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:34,599 Speaker 2: lineup will change a lot of things. I think our 1791 01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:38,080 Speaker 2: quarterback has shown all season, incredible poise, We've made the 1792 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:40,000 Speaker 2: big plays. We've had to make out sid Indiana game, 1793 01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:41,840 Speaker 2: which feels like the outlier for us, just how we've 1794 01:37:41,840 --> 01:37:42,880 Speaker 2: played so far this season. 1795 01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:44,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a chance. 1796 01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:47,120 Speaker 2: I just they're my team and I can't get ahead 1797 01:37:47,120 --> 01:37:49,720 Speaker 2: of myself, like I we're gonna win today, but yo, 1798 01:37:50,080 --> 01:37:52,280 Speaker 2: let's be let's be at Tech and then I will 1799 01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:55,720 Speaker 2: probably be uh in Atlanta for the for the Peach Bowl. 1800 01:37:56,320 --> 01:37:58,080 Speaker 1: Nice. Nice, So that's good. 1801 01:37:58,240 --> 01:37:59,680 Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like, if it's a four 1802 01:37:59,720 --> 01:38:01,040 Speaker 2: hour drama, they have to go. 1803 01:38:01,760 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 1: I have to go. If a semifinal gets Indiana, yeah, 1804 01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:07,960 Speaker 1: I think you gotta go Indiana. We we both agree 1805 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:12,760 Speaker 1: they'll beat Alabama, right, yes, yeah, yes, I think they 1806 01:38:12,920 --> 01:38:15,680 Speaker 1: roll Alabama. Yeah. I think so too. I think it's 1807 01:38:15,680 --> 01:38:19,800 Speaker 1: a bad matchup for him. I think they'll they'll really 1808 01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 1: struggle to move the ball. 1809 01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:23,000 Speaker 2: Indiana, by the way, had a sneaky bad injury at 1810 01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:24,760 Speaker 2: the end of that the gain in Ohio State, though 1811 01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:26,960 Speaker 2: with their best defensive tackle, got hurt and it's out 1812 01:38:27,000 --> 01:38:28,720 Speaker 2: for the season. It appears like that that's that that 1813 01:38:28,880 --> 01:38:30,519 Speaker 2: they're a team that doesn't really have a ton of 1814 01:38:30,600 --> 01:38:34,639 Speaker 2: depth the front, and it's really good, and they're down. 1815 01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:36,000 Speaker 2: I think I think they're there. I think one of 1816 01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:38,400 Speaker 2: the other tackles is out for the season, and now 1817 01:38:38,520 --> 01:38:43,559 Speaker 2: you lost. I think they're down another one that got 1818 01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:47,439 Speaker 2: hurt earlier this season, so I double check on that. 1819 01:38:47,640 --> 01:38:49,680 Speaker 2: But that that is a problem, Like that to me 1820 01:38:49,880 --> 01:38:53,439 Speaker 2: is like that's It's just they're a team that is 1821 01:38:53,760 --> 01:38:57,160 Speaker 2: very top heavy. They're very good at the top. Yeah, 1822 01:38:57,160 --> 01:38:59,040 Speaker 2: and we didn't get a chance, by the way, to 1823 01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:02,240 Speaker 2: talk about Heisman. I'm just glad I don't hear from 1824 01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:03,880 Speaker 2: Pavia ever again. If I never have to hear from 1825 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:05,439 Speaker 2: ever again, I'll be a very happy camper. 1826 01:39:05,720 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 1: I just can't. I just can't do it, man, I 1827 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,240 Speaker 1: can't do it. Yeah, the wrong way, dolly. Yeah. 1828 01:39:11,520 --> 01:39:14,280 Speaker 2: And look, I'm fine with cockiness, like I'm flying with that, 1829 01:39:15,040 --> 01:39:21,120 Speaker 2: but it just feels a bit like it's look because 1830 01:39:22,160 --> 01:39:25,760 Speaker 2: being cocky is fine, but when you add in like 1831 01:39:25,880 --> 01:39:29,559 Speaker 2: the f Indiana and screw the Heisman, voters like, bro, 1832 01:39:29,760 --> 01:39:31,960 Speaker 2: come on, man, who are you? Who are you to 1833 01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:33,439 Speaker 2: tell the voters go f off? 1834 01:39:33,960 --> 01:39:36,439 Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, no, I feel you on that. All Right, 1835 01:39:36,439 --> 01:39:39,320 Speaker 1: We're gona take quick too. We'll come back.

The Brain, 1851 01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:44,600 Speaker 1: Good morning, Brain. 1852 01:40:45,560 --> 01:40:46,240 Speaker 6: Good morning guys. 1853 01:40:46,280 --> 01:40:48,920 Speaker 1: How are you We're doing well? Man? What'd you make 1854 01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:53,120 Speaker 1: of last night? And uh the suoner meltdown? 1855 01:40:54,160 --> 01:40:56,599 Speaker 6: You heard of this same turn about its fair play. 1856 01:40:56,840 --> 01:41:00,280 Speaker 6: It's interesting those two games. If you watch the first team, 1857 01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:03,479 Speaker 6: those two teams played, and you watched last night's game, 1858 01:41:04,240 --> 01:41:08,120 Speaker 6: it was literally the exact like opposite. Like what I 1859 01:41:08,200 --> 01:41:11,639 Speaker 6: mean by that is first game. Yeah, Alabama absolutely should 1860 01:41:11,680 --> 01:41:15,120 Speaker 6: have won and they just didn't. Yesterday, I mean I 1861 01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:20,120 Speaker 6: lost by Oklahoma was just again a lot, I mean awful. 1862 01:41:20,240 --> 01:41:22,960 Speaker 6: I mean Alabama is just not good and they just 1863 01:41:24,479 --> 01:41:28,160 Speaker 6: just an awful loss. Awful. I mean, Oklahoma really played 1864 01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:30,160 Speaker 6: them one hundred percent should have won the game, but 1865 01:41:31,160 --> 01:41:33,200 Speaker 6: they didn't, and Alabama goes on. 1866 01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:34,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was. 1867 01:41:34,880 --> 01:41:37,479 Speaker 2: I mentioned earlier that the postgame win expectancy in the 1868 01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:42,600 Speaker 2: first game was five percent Bama like it was. It was, 1869 01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:46,600 Speaker 2: it was a joke obviously, yesterday it flipped. I am 1870 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:50,559 Speaker 2: a surprised the Oregon JMU number has not moved at all. 1871 01:41:50,600 --> 01:41:53,080 Speaker 2: I grabbed twenty and a half immediately and still hasn't 1872 01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:55,479 Speaker 2: moved at all. Is that a function of people betting 1873 01:41:55,479 --> 01:41:57,760 Speaker 2: on GMU? Is the ticket count just a little bit 1874 01:41:57,880 --> 01:42:00,840 Speaker 2: less right now? I'm just surprised that jam you would 1875 01:42:00,840 --> 01:42:04,320 Speaker 2: be a side people would take. I don't know the football. 1876 01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:04,439 Speaker 1: Reason for that. 1877 01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:09,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, Jeff, I absolutely agree with you. JM you again, 1878 01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:12,720 Speaker 6: I mean, Jami is just not a team that she 1879 01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:15,719 Speaker 6: even be on the field with, you know, with this team, 1880 01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:19,280 Speaker 6: I mean, they really shouldn't and it's gonna you know, 1881 01:42:19,400 --> 01:42:23,400 Speaker 6: I bet Oregon, I bet Oregon over their team total. 1882 01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:26,200 Speaker 6: I think Oregon getting healthy on the offensive side of 1883 01:42:26,200 --> 01:42:30,040 Speaker 6: the ball, wide receiver wise, especially Jeff. I think Oregon 1884 01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:32,880 Speaker 6: will win this game by severe margin. I will not 1885 01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:35,680 Speaker 6: be surprised if they're covering at halftime, let alone the 1886 01:42:35,800 --> 01:42:39,160 Speaker 6: end of the game. I don't understand how anyone is 1887 01:42:39,200 --> 01:42:42,200 Speaker 6: going to bet on the jm you here, but you 1888 01:42:42,280 --> 01:42:45,599 Speaker 6: know what, teach their own. But I agree with everything 1889 01:42:45,680 --> 01:42:49,040 Speaker 6: you said. I again, I will not be making I 1890 01:42:49,120 --> 01:42:50,679 Speaker 6: think this is a severe mismatch. 1891 01:42:52,240 --> 01:42:55,679 Speaker 1: Uh how do you size up a m Miami braid? 1892 01:42:56,840 --> 01:42:57,960 Speaker 6: You know, it's it's interesting. 1893 01:42:58,040 --> 01:42:58,280 Speaker 1: I think. 1894 01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:00,120 Speaker 6: I know I mentioned this to you initially, I like, 1895 01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:03,680 Speaker 6: I really Miami's been playing I think certainly better. They 1896 01:43:03,800 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 6: kind of had an interesting year. They started off house 1897 01:43:06,120 --> 01:43:08,320 Speaker 6: on fire, then they kind of when they hit that 1898 01:43:08,479 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 6: Louisville game kind of kind of which he leveled out. 1899 01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:15,240 Speaker 6: Now they've been playing better again, both teams getting more 1900 01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:17,559 Speaker 6: healthy again. But you know, Anthony, I know I said 1901 01:43:17,600 --> 01:43:19,719 Speaker 6: this to you before I go. There's something just about 1902 01:43:20,640 --> 01:43:23,479 Speaker 6: Mario Crystobal that reminds me of James Franklin. It's not 1903 01:43:23,640 --> 01:43:25,880 Speaker 6: meant a positive, it's just meant in a way where 1904 01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:28,160 Speaker 6: I feel like just bad things happen to that guy 1905 01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:32,680 Speaker 6: in big spots and just and I'll go to me 1906 01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:35,240 Speaker 6: as a coach I really trust and respect. I think 1907 01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:38,040 Speaker 6: A and m wins the game. Just something somehow, I 1908 01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:41,760 Speaker 6: just I cannot trust Miami and they're coaching staff in 1909 01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:44,360 Speaker 6: a big spots. It's time and time again it seemed. 1910 01:43:44,080 --> 01:43:49,760 Speaker 1: To fail anything for two Lane old mess in this game. Yeah, 1911 01:43:50,200 --> 01:43:53,800 Speaker 1: be close a little bit. What how's this one going 1912 01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:54,000 Speaker 1: to go? 1913 01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:58,720 Speaker 6: Well, you know, Jeff, look, obviously Mississippi has right all 1914 01:43:58,840 --> 01:44:02,639 Speaker 6: the coaching things. Was obviously a distraction. These teams played 1915 01:44:02,640 --> 01:44:06,960 Speaker 6: earlier this year actually had tou Lane got killed. They 1916 01:44:07,040 --> 01:44:14,639 Speaker 6: beat them, I think by about twenty eight or so earlier. Yeah, Okay, 1917 01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,120 Speaker 6: out of the two games, the game I'm more confident 1918 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:21,280 Speaker 6: in of these two lesser teams getting in is Oregon. 1919 01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:23,560 Speaker 6: To be honest, you I bet Oregon. I did not 1920 01:44:23,720 --> 01:44:25,880 Speaker 6: bet this game, but I absolutely would be on the 1921 01:44:25,880 --> 01:44:29,880 Speaker 6: Mississippi side. But I just have a little more faith 1922 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:33,800 Speaker 6: in Oregon in terms of covering that I do than 1923 01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:36,200 Speaker 6: all missed them all missed with my fight again again, 1924 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:38,680 Speaker 6: I don't think these two Having both these teams in 1925 01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:42,000 Speaker 6: to me is just just really not good for the sport. 1926 01:44:42,120 --> 01:44:45,080 Speaker 6: This isn't the unstateable a basketball where you know, you 1927 01:44:45,120 --> 01:44:47,960 Speaker 6: can get these Cinderells, And to me, it's not that 1928 01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:51,120 Speaker 6: at all. Yeah, I wish we were saying Notre Dame 1929 01:44:51,160 --> 01:44:52,679 Speaker 6: in here and not these two teams. 1930 01:44:54,040 --> 01:44:58,280 Speaker 1: Do you any thoughts on you know, how these games 1931 01:44:58,280 --> 01:45:00,880 Speaker 1: are going to go high scoring, low score, Any thoughts 1932 01:45:00,920 --> 01:45:01,479 Speaker 1: on the total? 1933 01:45:01,520 --> 01:45:03,519 Speaker 6: Well, I like, well again, team, I think Oregon's going 1934 01:45:03,600 --> 01:45:05,360 Speaker 6: to score. I think Oregon's gonna have a lot of 1935 01:45:05,400 --> 01:45:07,479 Speaker 6: success on the offensive side of the ball that would 1936 01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:10,680 Speaker 6: be in terms of the total. My biggest individual lean 1937 01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:14,120 Speaker 6: Anthony is I think Oregon offensively will have a lot 1938 01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:16,160 Speaker 6: of success. I like the way they've been playing recently 1939 01:45:16,600 --> 01:45:18,840 Speaker 6: and again the actually getting healthier. I think Oregon can 1940 01:45:18,880 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 6: actually make a little bit of a run potentially in 1941 01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:24,320 Speaker 6: this tournament. And I think the most likely winners are 1942 01:45:24,400 --> 01:45:28,120 Speaker 6: going to be you know, obviously Ohio State, Indiana and 1943 01:45:28,280 --> 01:45:30,439 Speaker 6: to me, Texas Tech. I actually like a lot as well, 1944 01:45:30,520 --> 01:45:32,639 Speaker 6: but I think Oregon would actually maybe be the team. 1945 01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:34,120 Speaker 6: And actually even put forth. 1946 01:45:35,400 --> 01:45:38,240 Speaker 2: Looking to the NFL today, the night game is really 1947 01:45:38,320 --> 01:45:41,840 Speaker 2: fascinating because I think that without Parsons there the Packers 1948 01:45:41,880 --> 01:45:44,559 Speaker 2: are just a much different team. How do you view 1949 01:45:44,880 --> 01:45:46,840 Speaker 2: this game? I think the Bears are still They're a 1950 01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:48,960 Speaker 2: slight home favorite. Last I checked. 1951 01:45:49,880 --> 01:45:51,680 Speaker 6: You know, Jeff, this is a great I mean I 1952 01:45:52,080 --> 01:45:54,240 Speaker 6: bet the look ahead mine big the Bears plus three 1953 01:45:54,280 --> 01:45:57,000 Speaker 6: and a half. I didn't understand the line at all. 1954 01:45:57,400 --> 01:45:59,960 Speaker 6: I thought the Bears should have been like flight favorite, 1955 01:46:00,920 --> 01:46:03,040 Speaker 6: and now it's gone that way. The lines moved five 1956 01:46:03,080 --> 01:46:05,479 Speaker 6: and a half points, not obviously all because of Parsons, 1957 01:46:05,560 --> 01:46:09,519 Speaker 6: but Bears have some injuries to the Jeff, I mean, 1958 01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 6: you know, I do think some of their receiver injuries 1959 01:46:12,439 --> 01:46:16,320 Speaker 6: are somewhat significant. I think the total I agree with you. Obviously, 1960 01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:20,360 Speaker 6: Parsons is one of the calm six best defensive players 1961 01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:22,960 Speaker 6: in the NFL. But I do think the total is 1962 01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:26,799 Speaker 6: still a little bit high. I don't love either offense. 1963 01:46:27,120 --> 01:46:30,040 Speaker 6: I just don't, and Bears defense is actually playing a 1964 01:46:30,080 --> 01:46:32,320 Speaker 6: little better. I like the under in the game at 1965 01:46:32,400 --> 01:46:34,680 Speaker 6: current numbers. Again, right now the Bears are laying too 1966 01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:37,760 Speaker 6: lean Bears, but not betting it at Bears. 1967 01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:38,000 Speaker 1: Again. 1968 01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:39,479 Speaker 6: To me, the edge was getting three and a half, 1969 01:46:39,600 --> 01:46:42,479 Speaker 6: not laying two. But I do think under forty seven 1970 01:46:42,560 --> 01:46:45,799 Speaker 6: has some value because I don't I don't trust necessarily 1971 01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:49,599 Speaker 6: either offense to get twenty seven points here. I think 1972 01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:50,599 Speaker 6: it's an under game. 1973 01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:54,200 Speaker 1: Could see it all right. The other game is the 1974 01:46:54,240 --> 01:47:01,679 Speaker 1: Eagles game. It's Eagles and Washington. Again. I look at jeez, 1975 01:47:02,640 --> 01:47:06,439 Speaker 1: Washington just has no teeth on defense. So I gotta 1976 01:47:06,479 --> 01:47:08,439 Speaker 1: believe the Eagles offense has a love of day where 1977 01:47:08,479 --> 01:47:09,040 Speaker 1: they look good. 1978 01:47:10,320 --> 01:47:12,160 Speaker 6: It may be the case they made a small bet. 1979 01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:12,439 Speaker 1: That's what. 1980 01:47:12,560 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 6: A small bet on Washington getting seven. Not a game 1981 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:18,200 Speaker 6: I love, but I thought the numbers should have been 1982 01:47:18,280 --> 01:47:20,920 Speaker 6: closer to like between six and six and a half. 1983 01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:24,799 Speaker 6: Small bet on me for Washington. But again, look, anytime 1984 01:47:24,840 --> 01:47:27,639 Speaker 6: you take a team like Washington that's playing for nothing, 1985 01:47:27,720 --> 01:47:30,040 Speaker 6: that has nothing, you could argue get what you deserve. 1986 01:47:30,439 --> 01:47:32,160 Speaker 6: But I just the Eagles to me, have been a 1987 01:47:32,200 --> 01:47:35,840 Speaker 6: team all year. There's just massively disappointed in terms of 1988 01:47:35,960 --> 01:47:39,439 Speaker 6: expectation versus what they've actually performed on the field. Again, 1989 01:47:39,560 --> 01:47:40,479 Speaker 6: only a small bet. 1990 01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:44,240 Speaker 1: For me though, a game that I did wager on. 1991 01:47:44,360 --> 01:47:47,320 Speaker 2: Here in the NFC South, the Panthers are getting three 1992 01:47:47,360 --> 01:47:50,200 Speaker 2: points at home against the Bucks. The Panthers good bad, 1993 01:47:50,280 --> 01:47:52,680 Speaker 2: good bad, good bad now for eight weeks in a row. 1994 01:47:53,040 --> 01:47:54,680 Speaker 2: Hopefully we get to go. But this is more a 1995 01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:57,160 Speaker 2: play on Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay right now is not good. 1996 01:47:57,280 --> 01:48:00,240 Speaker 2: They're not playing good football, hasn't been that way in 1997 01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:02,760 Speaker 2: six weeks. Their coaches is f bomb and the team 1998 01:48:02,840 --> 01:48:06,600 Speaker 2: at you know a postgame press conferences. I think the 1999 01:48:06,640 --> 01:48:08,879 Speaker 2: Panthers are gonna win this game. I'll take the three points. 2000 01:48:08,680 --> 01:48:13,120 Speaker 6: Though, Jeff, we once again we agreed, and I didn't 2001 01:48:13,160 --> 01:48:16,680 Speaker 6: understand this line at all. I think this line is 2002 01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:19,439 Speaker 6: slat out one or a half points at least too high. 2003 01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:22,160 Speaker 6: Taking three to me again, yeah, I agree. It's a 2004 01:48:22,200 --> 01:48:24,760 Speaker 6: fifty to fifty close game and go either way. I'll 2005 01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:26,800 Speaker 6: take the three points, and if timp b wins, guess 2006 01:48:26,840 --> 01:48:28,360 Speaker 6: what it could easily be by one, two or three. 2007 01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:29,200 Speaker 1: I agree with you. 2008 01:48:29,240 --> 01:48:31,200 Speaker 6: I bet I bet the Carolina getting three as well. 2009 01:48:32,040 --> 01:48:35,920 Speaker 1: So I'm a I'm an outlier here. I hear everything 2010 01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:38,360 Speaker 1: you guys are saying, and I'll you know, I get it. 2011 01:48:38,439 --> 01:48:44,599 Speaker 1: It makes sense. They did score twenty eight points. They 2012 01:48:44,640 --> 01:48:48,280 Speaker 1: were up twenty eight to fourteen before the meltdown. Tampa 2013 01:48:48,400 --> 01:48:52,360 Speaker 1: is healthy. Now you got three backs, Bucky's running the 2014 01:48:52,400 --> 01:48:59,160 Speaker 1: ball well, all your receivers are healthy. I gotta tell you, 2015 01:48:59,320 --> 01:49:02,320 Speaker 1: I don't believe even Bryce Young, I don't believe in Carolina. 2016 01:49:02,360 --> 01:49:08,000 Speaker 1: I like their defense, but I'm not buying it. Man, 2017 01:49:08,120 --> 01:49:11,879 Speaker 1: I'm not buying Carolina. And I still I know Tampa's 2018 01:49:11,960 --> 01:49:16,559 Speaker 1: defense isn't what it was, but I still I got 2019 01:49:16,680 --> 01:49:18,160 Speaker 1: I gotta go Tampa in this game. 2020 01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:21,200 Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, I don't like again Anthony, I don't like 2021 01:49:21,320 --> 01:49:24,400 Speaker 6: Caroline either, but I just uh, I always again, I 2022 01:49:24,560 --> 01:49:27,040 Speaker 6: question it. Baker Mayfield talthy because after those first six 2023 01:49:27,080 --> 01:49:30,280 Speaker 6: weeks when people were talking MVP, until he's played extremely 2024 01:49:30,439 --> 01:49:32,880 Speaker 6: below average the last seven weeks or whatever it's been. 2025 01:49:35,120 --> 01:49:37,200 Speaker 1: His shoulder, shoulder. 2026 01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:40,360 Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, so to me again, I I and these 2027 01:49:40,400 --> 01:49:41,920 Speaker 6: guys are so tough. And Jeff, you know that you 2028 01:49:41,960 --> 01:49:44,360 Speaker 6: played in the league. I'm sure there's so many times 2029 01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:47,280 Speaker 6: you watch guys play that the general person has no 2030 01:49:47,400 --> 01:49:49,200 Speaker 6: idea how hurt they are. And if they don't play well, 2031 01:49:49,240 --> 01:49:52,479 Speaker 6: they get criticized. But it's amazing they're even playing for 2032 01:49:52,600 --> 01:49:54,640 Speaker 6: all I know. You know, Baker is just really just 2033 01:49:54,760 --> 01:49:56,400 Speaker 6: gunning it out because he doesn't seem like the same 2034 01:49:56,400 --> 01:49:56,840 Speaker 6: player to me. 2035 01:49:57,000 --> 01:50:02,000 Speaker 1: Right now, now, I let's do this. Let's take a 2036 01:50:02,120 --> 01:50:05,960 Speaker 1: quick too, we'll come back, we'll go through the games 2037 01:50:06,120 --> 01:50:10,960 Speaker 1: tomorrow and then, uh, we got the because there's some 2038 01:50:11,040 --> 01:50:12,800 Speaker 1: big ones then and we'll take a look at maybe 2039 01:50:12,840 --> 01:50:15,160 Speaker 1: some of you guys are tapping into some future stuff. 2040 01:50:15,640 --> 01:50:19,000 Speaker 1: We'll look at the college football playoffs again. So we 2041 01:50:19,120 --> 01:50:22,280 Speaker 1: got the brain. Hang tight, We'll take a quick too, 2042 01:50:22,400 --> 01:50:25,200 Speaker 1: come right back and run through it all. Where the 2043 01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:28,840 Speaker 1: fellas right here on Fox Sports Radio. 2044 01:50:30,080 --> 01:50:34,519 Speaker 7: You don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio, all right, 2045 01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:41,799 Speaker 7: welcome back fellas, Jeff Schwartz, Anthony Gargano and the Brain. 2046 01:50:44,120 --> 01:50:46,080 Speaker 1: You miss any today's show, be sure to check out 2047 01:50:46,120 --> 01:50:48,959 Speaker 1: the podcast she search Fox Sports Radio wherever you game podcasts. 2048 01:50:49,520 --> 01:50:51,760 Speaker 1: Shortly after you'll see this one post and raf we 2049 01:50:51,800 --> 01:50:55,760 Speaker 1: go off the air. Alright, let's do it. Let's go 2050 01:50:56,000 --> 01:51:02,839 Speaker 1: through tomorrow and kind of where we're at. So tomorrow, boys, 2051 01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:05,000 Speaker 1: I'll throw the both of you. We'll go through some 2052 01:51:05,120 --> 01:51:08,120 Speaker 1: of the games. I do know the brain likes the 2053 01:51:08,280 --> 01:51:11,920 Speaker 1: Saints tomorrow. That line is skyrocket and suddenly now up 2054 01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 1: to six and a half. 2055 01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:18,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's got again. This opened at three, Yeah, and 2056 01:51:18,320 --> 01:51:20,200 Speaker 6: that was I loved it at three. I got even 2057 01:51:20,280 --> 01:51:22,880 Speaker 6: some more at four. Mail's up to six and a half. 2058 01:51:23,000 --> 01:51:26,519 Speaker 6: You had definitely a different wager at that point. But again, 2059 01:51:26,600 --> 01:51:29,640 Speaker 6: I actually still clearly on the Saint Some look, we 2060 01:51:29,680 --> 01:51:32,719 Speaker 6: have a Saints team that since me at the quarterback 2061 01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:36,960 Speaker 6: switch again, maybe maybe Tyler Show is the actual future 2062 01:51:37,240 --> 01:51:40,720 Speaker 6: of the team. Potentially He's played really well against the 2063 01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:44,000 Speaker 6: Jets team to me that there is absolutely nothing uh 2064 01:51:44,200 --> 01:51:47,040 Speaker 6: Saints playing well again toughly that many points. 2065 01:51:47,080 --> 01:51:50,240 Speaker 1: I get a lot of people like shuck, yeah, Jeff, 2066 01:51:50,320 --> 01:51:52,479 Speaker 1: what do you think he's played well? He's played well. 2067 01:51:52,960 --> 01:51:55,280 Speaker 2: I mean it would be Saints. I mean the number 2068 01:51:55,360 --> 01:51:58,560 Speaker 2: now is ridiculous, but I think back when it was 2069 01:51:58,760 --> 01:52:01,080 Speaker 2: you would bet the Saints or nothing. This game, there's 2070 01:52:01,120 --> 01:52:03,920 Speaker 2: some I like, I like some ugly sides this week, 2071 01:52:03,960 --> 01:52:05,639 Speaker 2: but just feels like it is every NFL week. 2072 01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:07,760 Speaker 1: All right, So I want to go through the game. 2073 01:52:07,800 --> 01:52:09,200 Speaker 1: Do you tell me if you guys have an opinion? 2074 01:52:09,680 --> 01:52:13,880 Speaker 1: Bill's Brown's no opinion for me on that, all right. 2075 01:52:14,160 --> 01:52:17,080 Speaker 2: I would play the Browns if I had to play 2076 01:52:17,120 --> 01:52:20,320 Speaker 2: the game, but I'll pass Chiefs and Titans. 2077 01:52:22,560 --> 01:52:22,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2078 01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:23,960 Speaker 2: I love the Titans. 2079 01:52:24,680 --> 01:52:26,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, I bet the Titans getting three and a half. 2080 01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:31,960 Speaker 6: I mean saw three again. This Chiefs team, I look, 2081 01:52:32,040 --> 01:52:33,320 Speaker 6: if this is to me, is going to be a 2082 01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:36,639 Speaker 6: very tough situation for them, Anthony, with what they're going through. 2083 01:52:37,640 --> 01:52:38,840 Speaker 6: I think the Titans win the game. 2084 01:52:40,360 --> 01:52:42,839 Speaker 2: I told you guys last week to bet the Chargers. 2085 01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:43,439 Speaker 2: I thought Chargers. 2086 01:52:43,880 --> 01:52:45,320 Speaker 1: You're right, You're right. 2087 01:52:45,600 --> 01:52:47,680 Speaker 2: I think the Titans win the game, out right. I 2088 01:52:47,720 --> 01:52:49,200 Speaker 2: took them three and a half when the when the 2089 01:52:49,280 --> 01:52:52,960 Speaker 2: line came out obviously adjusted with Mahomes injury. I just 2090 01:52:53,080 --> 01:52:56,160 Speaker 2: the Chiefs right now this they have nothing to play for. 2091 01:52:56,920 --> 01:52:59,080 Speaker 2: Their offense wasn't good with Mahomes. Now you have a 2092 01:52:59,120 --> 01:53:02,160 Speaker 2: backup quarterback in there. What's the motivation for this game? 2093 01:53:02,280 --> 01:53:05,000 Speaker 2: Chris Jones? Beat up, offensive line, beat up? I just 2094 01:53:05,160 --> 01:53:07,000 Speaker 2: I just the Chiefs. It would not surprise you. 2095 01:53:07,120 --> 01:53:11,559 Speaker 1: They just it's gonna be bad. I like Tennessee, all right, 2096 01:53:11,720 --> 01:53:16,040 Speaker 1: Dallas and the Chargers. Cowboys one and a half now eliminated. 2097 01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:22,439 Speaker 1: Brain Yeah, well, I mean that's now last after losing 2098 01:53:22,479 --> 01:53:23,480 Speaker 1: at home in Minnesota. 2099 01:53:24,320 --> 01:53:25,960 Speaker 6: This to me is one of the harder games on 2100 01:53:26,000 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 6: the board to pick because the people are talking about 2101 01:53:29,200 --> 01:53:32,840 Speaker 6: your Cowboys, and Jeff you pointed out astutely their defense stinks. 2102 01:53:32,880 --> 01:53:35,240 Speaker 6: You're like, what are people talking about? But people were 2103 01:53:35,240 --> 01:53:37,200 Speaker 6: probably getting a little over league Zuber on this team 2104 01:53:37,840 --> 01:53:40,400 Speaker 6: Chargers to me or a team that the coach is amazing, 2105 01:53:40,560 --> 01:53:44,680 Speaker 6: the quarterback's amazing, everything else. I just don't get. I 2106 01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:46,760 Speaker 6: think Dallas wins the game, but not a game. I'm 2107 01:53:46,760 --> 01:53:49,720 Speaker 6: playing hardest game on the board for me personally, I like. 2108 01:53:49,760 --> 01:53:52,400 Speaker 2: The Chargers of this game. I just think that their physicality. 2109 01:53:53,080 --> 01:53:54,920 Speaker 2: Now to your point, they basically have to win once 2110 01:53:55,160 --> 01:53:58,439 Speaker 2: one sort of way, which is tough, but I think 2111 01:53:58,479 --> 01:54:03,360 Speaker 2: it's gonna out physical. Dallas run the football, control lives scrimmage. Defensively, 2112 01:54:03,439 --> 01:54:06,240 Speaker 2: Chargers are playing really well. Obviously the Cowboys present a 2113 01:54:06,320 --> 01:54:09,400 Speaker 2: lot of challenges for them, but the Cowboys defense is 2114 01:54:09,680 --> 01:54:11,040 Speaker 2: not is not good at all. 2115 01:54:11,120 --> 01:54:16,760 Speaker 1: So I lean Chargers here all right, Vikings and Giants? 2116 01:54:18,720 --> 01:54:20,120 Speaker 1: Where you at with this one brain? 2117 01:54:21,880 --> 01:54:23,679 Speaker 6: You know when I think it's two and a half 2118 01:54:23,760 --> 01:54:27,559 Speaker 6: right now, when it was three, I lend leaned Giants. Look, 2119 01:54:27,600 --> 01:54:31,280 Speaker 6: I'll say this, McCarthy, after what ten straight or eleven 2120 01:54:31,320 --> 01:54:34,480 Speaker 6: straight whatever, it was atrocious weeks. Last two weeks he's 2121 01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:37,720 Speaker 6: actually played pretty well and now he's another eight matchup 2122 01:54:37,720 --> 01:54:39,960 Speaker 6: my co job. I like justin Jefferson Anthony. I mentioned 2123 01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:42,520 Speaker 6: this sup before he over his receiving yards and I 2124 01:54:42,600 --> 01:54:45,040 Speaker 6: need even an alternate bet getting seven to one odds, 2125 01:54:45,040 --> 01:54:47,760 Speaker 6: he gets two hundred yards. I feel like this is 2126 01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:49,800 Speaker 6: a spot where he finally kind of can break through 2127 01:54:51,120 --> 01:54:52,760 Speaker 6: fifty five and a half yards. Think's a little bit 2128 01:54:52,800 --> 01:54:53,120 Speaker 6: too low. 2129 01:54:54,440 --> 01:54:56,960 Speaker 2: I actually took I took money on uh. Will Darby 2130 01:54:57,000 --> 01:54:58,760 Speaker 2: evaluated for concussion in this game. 2131 01:54:58,840 --> 01:54:59,480 Speaker 1: I took the yess. 2132 01:55:01,240 --> 01:55:03,720 Speaker 2: I just you know, cover my bases, you know, I 2133 01:55:03,960 --> 01:55:07,400 Speaker 2: find an alternate market to wager on. No, I got 2134 01:55:07,440 --> 01:55:10,280 Speaker 2: nothing for this one. I I just don't trust McCarthy 2135 01:55:10,520 --> 01:55:14,000 Speaker 2: and the Giants. I mean they've lost twelve in a row. 2136 01:55:14,080 --> 01:55:19,920 Speaker 1: That yeah, Miami Cincinnati Cincinnati four and a half. The 2137 01:55:20,000 --> 01:55:25,440 Speaker 1: big chick quarterback chains uh taus sits down and Hewers 2138 01:55:26,280 --> 01:55:28,360 Speaker 1: gets to start for the Dolphin's brain. 2139 01:55:29,720 --> 01:55:32,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean look, and obviously the big move in 2140 01:55:32,520 --> 01:55:36,160 Speaker 6: the line based off that I never liked yours at 2141 01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:38,480 Speaker 6: text as much or what you thought. Jeff was never 2142 01:55:38,600 --> 01:55:40,720 Speaker 6: really a huge fan. But upposedly in the building they 2143 01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:43,600 Speaker 6: like them. We'll see. Uh. To me, the game's a 2144 01:55:43,720 --> 01:55:44,400 Speaker 6: complete pass. 2145 01:55:45,920 --> 01:55:48,840 Speaker 2: Why are Bengals favorite over anyone on the road. I 2146 01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:52,040 Speaker 2: don't mean the three the three of us can play quarterback. 2147 01:55:52,080 --> 01:55:55,440 Speaker 2: I don't I don't really their defense is atrocious. Their 2148 01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:57,200 Speaker 2: offense had their worst game of the season last week. 2149 01:55:57,240 --> 01:55:59,120 Speaker 2: The Dolphins could run the football like I think that, 2150 01:55:59,240 --> 01:56:02,160 Speaker 2: I think chan whatever, I don't even look like his 2151 01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:04,920 Speaker 2: his his combined rushing receiving yards. It's gonna be like 2152 01:56:05,360 --> 01:56:07,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess one thirty like in say number one 2153 01:56:07,920 --> 01:56:10,800 Speaker 2: thirty five. I mean, I just the Bengels being a 2154 01:56:10,800 --> 01:56:12,560 Speaker 2: favorite of anyone right now is silly to me. The 2155 01:56:12,600 --> 01:56:15,680 Speaker 2: way Joe Burrow's talking, the way they played. I'm not 2156 01:56:15,800 --> 01:56:17,760 Speaker 2: sure I'm taking the Dolphins plus four and a half, 2157 01:56:17,920 --> 01:56:22,360 Speaker 2: but I don't like the Bengals here. 2158 01:56:23,400 --> 01:56:27,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's sure, all right. 2159 01:56:28,040 --> 01:56:32,040 Speaker 1: Denver, Jacksonville, Denver three and a half? What do you got? 2160 01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:35,400 Speaker 6: Break again? Open? Two and a half. I didn't get 2161 01:56:35,440 --> 01:56:37,520 Speaker 6: the line. I thought it should have been between three 2162 01:56:37,600 --> 01:56:39,360 Speaker 6: and three and a half. I know a lot of 2163 01:56:39,400 --> 01:56:40,840 Speaker 6: people like the over in this game. They're a lot 2164 01:56:40,840 --> 01:56:43,919 Speaker 6: of shark people. I know. I don't agree with that personally, 2165 01:56:44,400 --> 01:56:47,320 Speaker 6: but the current numbers to me, this game is a pass. 2166 01:56:49,480 --> 01:56:51,760 Speaker 1: I three and a half. 2167 01:56:51,840 --> 01:56:55,840 Speaker 2: You only you go to bet Jacksonville, but man Trevor 2168 01:56:55,880 --> 01:56:58,840 Speaker 2: Lawrence on the road in a big game, it's pass 2169 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:01,640 Speaker 2: pass on that. I think two and a half would 2170 01:57:01,680 --> 01:57:04,600 Speaker 2: have been the spot to take Denver in obviously no longer. 2171 01:57:04,440 --> 01:57:08,400 Speaker 1: Available Atlanta given three on the road in Arizona. 2172 01:57:08,520 --> 01:57:13,720 Speaker 6: Brain, Yeah, not a e game I'm doing, Drake, lend 2173 01:57:13,760 --> 01:57:16,840 Speaker 6: this those lead back for this one. Arizona just so 2174 01:57:17,040 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 6: banged up, can't win anything. I mean, just not a 2175 01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:20,480 Speaker 6: game I'm getting involved in. 2176 01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:23,160 Speaker 2: I think these are the worst and toughest games to 2177 01:57:23,200 --> 01:57:24,879 Speaker 2: bet on because both teams are out of the playoffs. 2178 01:57:24,960 --> 01:57:25,400 Speaker 1: Like what what? 2179 01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:25,880 Speaker 3: What? 2180 01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:27,640 Speaker 1: Yeah? What? 2181 01:57:28,240 --> 01:57:29,160 Speaker 2: This is like a bowl game? 2182 01:57:29,240 --> 01:57:31,200 Speaker 1: Who Who's who's more motivated? 2183 01:57:31,280 --> 01:57:31,400 Speaker 2: Who? 2184 01:57:31,560 --> 01:57:31,600 Speaker 5: Like? 2185 01:57:31,680 --> 01:57:34,800 Speaker 6: I no no idea, Jeff, I got to answer you 2186 01:57:34,800 --> 01:57:35,280 Speaker 6: a quick question. 2187 01:57:35,320 --> 01:57:35,440 Speaker 1: I know. 2188 01:57:36,200 --> 01:57:38,880 Speaker 6: But when you played you mentioned something about Kansas City. 2189 01:57:38,960 --> 01:57:40,760 Speaker 6: How I just they have nothing to play for? Jeff, 2190 01:57:40,760 --> 01:57:42,040 Speaker 6: you played a lot of years in the league. Was 2191 01:57:42,120 --> 01:57:45,200 Speaker 6: there tients and games where again, obviously you try every game. 2192 01:57:45,240 --> 01:57:47,160 Speaker 6: I get that, but you just kind of knew in 2193 01:57:47,240 --> 01:57:49,160 Speaker 6: the locker room like, man, it's just going to be 2194 01:57:49,800 --> 01:57:52,280 Speaker 6: It's just you could just tell like everything the vibe 2195 01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:54,160 Speaker 6: wasn't good and it just wasn't gonna be your day. Like, 2196 01:57:54,240 --> 01:57:56,040 Speaker 6: as a player, do you kind of know of those things? 2197 01:57:56,680 --> 01:57:56,920 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2198 01:57:57,160 --> 01:57:59,840 Speaker 2: But I also was on a turn the Yeah, but 2199 01:58:00,200 --> 01:58:01,800 Speaker 2: to be fair, it was only one time, and it 2200 01:58:01,840 --> 01:58:04,080 Speaker 2: was when I was on a two and fourteen Panthers team, 2201 01:58:04,160 --> 01:58:06,960 Speaker 2: like you knew. Like otherwise, you go into every game 2202 01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:09,400 Speaker 2: thinking it's gonna go well, and then obviously that can 2203 01:58:09,520 --> 01:58:12,440 Speaker 2: change pretty quickly. But you go into every game thinking 2204 01:58:12,920 --> 01:58:15,760 Speaker 2: that you're gonna win, except when you are really, really bad, 2205 01:58:16,520 --> 01:58:18,120 Speaker 2: which is why sometimes I just say, like, I just 2206 01:58:18,120 --> 01:58:19,920 Speaker 2: think this team is sort of they're sort of done 2207 01:58:20,000 --> 01:58:20,280 Speaker 2: right now. 2208 01:58:21,680 --> 01:58:24,080 Speaker 1: But you go into most every game you go and 2209 01:58:24,120 --> 01:58:26,880 Speaker 1: thinking you're gonna win, no matter the odds. But on 2210 01:58:27,000 --> 01:58:29,320 Speaker 1: a bad, bad team I played on, we definite knew 2211 01:58:29,320 --> 01:58:29,800 Speaker 1: we were losing. 2212 01:58:30,720 --> 01:58:33,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, all right, Uh. 2213 01:58:35,320 --> 01:58:39,160 Speaker 1: Let's go Steelers and Lions. I like Detroit. I like 2214 01:58:39,280 --> 01:58:42,800 Speaker 1: Detroit's totals. I think they scored a ton of points. 2215 01:58:43,280 --> 01:58:45,720 Speaker 1: Bray and I talked about this. I think Gibbs has 2216 01:58:45,760 --> 01:58:49,880 Speaker 1: a great receiving day out of the backfield. I think 2217 01:58:49,960 --> 01:58:52,920 Speaker 1: they just can't Matt in Pittsburgh's defense gonna get slaughtered. 2218 01:58:54,000 --> 01:58:57,120 Speaker 6: Well, as I told you, for me again, I hear 2219 01:58:57,200 --> 01:58:59,880 Speaker 6: you on that. But I can't lay seven points with Detroit. 2220 01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:01,320 Speaker 6: Thing would be Pittsburgh for me. 2221 01:59:01,680 --> 01:59:02,240 Speaker 1: I do with Greef. 2222 01:59:02,280 --> 01:59:04,640 Speaker 6: Pittsburgh I mean Detroit should be able to score a lot, 2223 01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:07,000 Speaker 6: but right now I ranked their defense thirty two out 2224 01:59:07,000 --> 01:59:09,640 Speaker 6: of thirty two. I'm not take laying seven points with 2225 01:59:09,680 --> 01:59:11,360 Speaker 6: the team. I don't think it's stop a college team 2226 01:59:11,440 --> 01:59:11,720 Speaker 6: right now. 2227 01:59:12,680 --> 01:59:14,440 Speaker 2: Man, this is always like the bight Tom on one 2228 01:59:14,480 --> 01:59:17,120 Speaker 2: spot right that you're like, what there's like, oh that 2229 01:59:17,120 --> 01:59:19,160 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh has no chance they win the game, right, But 2230 01:59:20,160 --> 01:59:22,920 Speaker 2: I still think it's it's a stayaway for me. Bob 2231 01:59:22,960 --> 01:59:28,920 Speaker 2: would leave Pittsburgh or nothing. I the England Baltimore. 2232 01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:33,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, I this was my biggest stead of the week. 2233 01:59:34,760 --> 01:59:37,680 Speaker 6: I don't understand the line, I really I can't. On 2234 01:59:37,720 --> 01:59:40,160 Speaker 6: the byball, I don't get it. I think New England's better. 2235 01:59:40,520 --> 01:59:42,520 Speaker 6: I don't understand why they're this big of an undergog. 2236 01:59:42,680 --> 01:59:45,000 Speaker 6: I didn't understand the New England Buffalo line last week though, 2237 01:59:45,040 --> 01:59:47,120 Speaker 6: either in fairness, but this one I really don't get. 2238 01:59:47,520 --> 01:59:49,000 Speaker 6: I think New England win's the game out right. 2239 01:59:49,840 --> 01:59:52,600 Speaker 2: That's fast because I'm on New England too, and I 2240 01:59:52,720 --> 01:59:56,200 Speaker 2: think people are of the mindset that because of their 2241 01:59:56,240 --> 01:59:58,600 Speaker 2: loss last week, they're going to emotionally be down this week. 2242 01:59:58,680 --> 02:00:01,000 Speaker 2: But the Raven's offense can't score. 2243 02:00:02,320 --> 02:00:04,320 Speaker 1: Their offense is not good. I wouldn'tan I take the 2244 02:00:04,360 --> 02:00:07,360 Speaker 1: three points with New England now, I a great I 2245 02:00:07,760 --> 02:00:10,760 Speaker 1: love the patrons of this game, Niners and cults on 2246 02:00:10,840 --> 02:00:14,720 Speaker 1: the Monday night. Niners. You said it earlier, Jeff Well, 2247 02:00:14,720 --> 02:00:17,280 Speaker 1: I don't know where you guys feel, but Niners kind 2248 02:00:17,320 --> 02:00:19,760 Speaker 1: of hold their own destiny. Yeah. 2249 02:00:19,760 --> 02:00:21,800 Speaker 6: I bet them in eight poorn and win the division. 2250 02:00:21,920 --> 02:00:25,560 Speaker 6: Last week I kind of saw this happening. It's like 2251 02:00:25,640 --> 02:00:27,800 Speaker 6: coming down. I think to that last game where they 2252 02:00:27,800 --> 02:00:30,480 Speaker 6: play Seattle. In my opinion, Oh look, here's the thing. 2253 02:00:30,800 --> 02:00:35,240 Speaker 6: You know, Rivers man, he just watching. He really struggles 2254 02:00:35,280 --> 02:00:38,560 Speaker 6: to throat the ball. I guess it's not surprising. I 2255 02:00:38,720 --> 02:00:41,640 Speaker 6: just can't lay that many points here with San Francisco. 2256 02:00:41,800 --> 02:00:44,080 Speaker 6: I just can't do it. Stay away game from me. 2257 02:00:44,320 --> 02:00:47,640 Speaker 6: I think Sancisco wins the game, but not a game 2258 02:00:47,720 --> 02:00:48,920 Speaker 6: I can't get at the scheme of the way. 2259 02:00:49,880 --> 02:00:52,320 Speaker 2: Thanks Phil, Rivers Unders, That's what I would do every day. 2260 02:00:53,120 --> 02:00:56,320 Speaker 1: Hey listen, guys want to wish everybody happy holidays.
