1 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: We have big problems, big big problems. I want you 2 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: to listen to this along with me. Steady rain in 3 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,319 Speaker 1: the morning becoming a soaking rain in the evening, chance 4 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: of rain ninety percent, rainfall half an inch. I have 5 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 1: fifty two degrees. That's what awaits us in four ballast, 6 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: Oregon this weekend. Now, I'm not scared of rain. I've 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: been rained on before, I will be rained on again. 8 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 1: But nevertheless, we're walking into a situation where we have 9 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: undefeated Washington on the road and featured for the second 10 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: time on the Once Upon a Saturday tour. And we're 11 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: going to talk about that tonight because upsets could be 12 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: in the offing in a lot of places. But if 13 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: Washington lost this weekend, at least in the eyes of Vegas, 14 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: it would not even be an upset. We're high at 15 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: top a dry and warm comparatively speaking, Downtown Nashville, Tennessee, Thursday, 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: November sixteenth, The over Lord twenty twenty three. You may 17 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: have felt the tremors around the sport this afternoon, and 18 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: that was about the time that Jim Harbor Michigan decided, Yeah, 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: we've had enough of this. We're going to agree to 20 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: the suspension. Yes, if you're just getting off work, getting home, 21 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: living your life earlier today that happened, I will have reaction. 22 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: I do believe that Volcanic Saturday is still out there 23 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: somewhere and could very well be on our doorstep. Could 24 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: Week twelve be the weekend where all of those theories 25 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: and all of those projections go up and smoke because 26 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: a bunch of people who aren't supposed to lose all 27 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 1: the sudden lose. The Texas A and M fight continues. 28 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: Now you may think fight, that's a weird way to 29 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: say coaching search. Josh, No, that's continuing as well. But 30 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: as you know, I've had both shields up, one shield 31 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: in each hand, fighting off the casuals that I never 32 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: knew existed, at least the casual argument that I never 33 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: knew existed about this whole A and M search. So 34 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,639 Speaker 1: I'm going to give you some thoughts on the search, 35 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: and I'm going to give you some really ridiculous screenshots 36 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: of some tweets. Tonight, I got several added best bets. 37 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: They're watching us in Cocoa Beach, Florida, Medford, Oregon, Corpus Christi, Texas, 38 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: and Las Vegas, Nevada. Now, I've got a really weird 39 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: travel schedule coming up, so we're gonna fly to Portland 40 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: tomorrow and we'll drive down to Corvallis. But here's the problem. 41 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: I will get out there way too late to do 42 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,119 Speaker 1: Friday Night Lines till we got one of two options. 43 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: We can either scrap Friday Night Lines, which as you know, 44 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: is not an option, or we can just do special 45 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: morning edition of Friday Night Lines tomorrow. I have chosen 46 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: the latter, and so breaking news here. Not even Colin 47 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: or Jesse knew this until a minute ago. Tomorrow morning, 48 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: ten Eastern, nine Central, seven Pacific Instagram Live at late 49 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: Kick Josh, I'm gonna do Friday Night Lines, but it's 50 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: gonna be the morning version. So those of you who 51 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: have never tuned in, this is a good time for 52 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 1: you to find out what Friday Night Lines is all about. 53 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna have three added best bets on this 54 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: show tonight. But tomorrow morning special one morning only edition 55 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: of Friday Night Lines is going down. And also i'd 56 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 1: advise you to go ahead and follow on Instagram now 57 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: because I have it on pretty good authority that Cublic 58 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: bailed on the show because he's in the air flying 59 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: somewhere right now. But I got it on fairly good authority. 60 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: He and I may do something on Instagram live a 61 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: little bit later tonight. You know how lively the comment 62 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: section can get when you got me and Cube they're 63 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: live out of company purview. By the way, just say 64 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: whatever you want to within reason at Lake Kick, Josh, 65 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: I'll see you there. All right, let's talk about this. 66 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: So the Big Ten in Michigan have come to some 67 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: sort of handshake emoji agreement where Michigan and Jim Harball 68 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: have accepted the Big Ten's three game suspension punishment investigation over, 69 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: at least as far as the Big Ten is concerned. 70 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: The investigation into sign stealing, et cetera, et cetera is over. 71 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: There is no hearing on Friday, So unfortunately for some 72 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: out there, you're gonna have to talk about a football 73 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: game absent Jim Harbaugh, of course, but you're gonna have 74 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: to talk about Michigan Maryland. Did you guys know they 75 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: play this weekend? By the way, No, No, I've seen 76 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: a lot of head nods. No, Yeah, they do play 77 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: this weekend. Talk about that game a little bit later. 78 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, I happened to think that the 79 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,839 Speaker 1: sort of fence writing technique we took on this show 80 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: about this was right all along, because, as you can 81 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: clearly see, this was not a scandal to end all 82 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: scandals in the Big ten. This was not, as some 83 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: people framed it, one of the biggest scandals in college 84 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: football history. No, it was never that. But it also 85 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: wasn't nothing. It wasn't something that was just meant to 86 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: smear Michigan's name. It wasn't a nothing burger, which I 87 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: hate when is even used in politics. I especially hate 88 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: it when it's used in college football. There was something there. 89 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: That's why they agreed to this. So neither side that 90 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: was shotting at each other, believe it or not, was 91 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 1: one hundred percent in the right. Neither side had all 92 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: the facts on their side. There was plenty enough. I 93 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: can pretty well rest sure there's there's plenty enough to 94 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: concern Michigan to the the point that, what twenty four 95 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: hours before that hearing where you potentially get a lot 96 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: of people that have to be on the record and 97 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: you get into discovery and all this sort of thing, 98 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: right before that happens, they say, okay, well, we'll agree 99 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: to it. Look, I saw the movie The Rock, like 100 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: I know exactly what just happened. If you've never seen 101 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: The Rock, not the Wrestler. The movie really good, movie, 102 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: really good. A lot of very very timeless quotes in 103 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: that movie. But essentially what we had was we had 104 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: Ed Harris, who led several tours in Desert Storm back 105 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: in the nineties black ops and lost a lot of men. 106 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: But since it was a black ops, the US government 107 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: disabout all knowledge. They didn't compensate the families for the deaths, 108 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: and he stewed on it for a few years and 109 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: decided I'm done stewing on this, and so he did 110 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: what anybody would do. He hired some mercenaries. He went 111 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: and loaded himself up with some VX gas rockets. He 112 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: took hostage a tourist group on Alcatraz Island, and he 113 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: pointed three at downtown San Francisco, called the president and said, 114 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: if you don't compensate the families, I'm gonna kill half 115 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 1: San Francisco. Great movie plot, and then Nicholas Cage and 116 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: Sean Connery saved the day. Spoiler alert. But in the meantime, 117 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: it turns out ed Harris was just talking big. Ed 118 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: Harris was actually a human with a pretty big heart 119 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: who had no intention of blowing up half of San Francisco. 120 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: It just so happened that at the eleventh hour we 121 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: found out because they called his bluff and he even 122 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: looks at his men and says, hey, it's over. I'm 123 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: not a madman. They called our bluff. That's kind of 124 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: how I picture of the room at Michigan. We're gonna 125 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: talk big, which by the way, would have been my 126 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: strategy as well. We hope they backed down, but if 127 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: they don't and they got enough on us at the 128 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: eleventh hour, we're going to agree to this. It's kind 129 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: of a no one wins, but also no one totally 130 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: loses situation. Tony Petiti kind of wins the big ten commissioner. 131 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: So this was a classic Ed Harris rock situation. The storm, 132 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: as I've said two times this week, and I will 133 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 1: now say a third time, is clearing for Michigan. You 134 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: may say to yourself, or you may say to me 135 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: in the comment section, No, this is just the beginning. Josh. 136 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: Think about what the NCAA is going to do to them. 137 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: The nc DOUBLEA is not going to do anything to 138 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: them aside from find them a whole lot down the road, 139 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: and that will be after years of legal ping ponging 140 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: back and forth. It's a legal term. They're legal ping ponging. 141 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: I don't if I'm a Michigan fan, I don't stay 142 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: up late tonight or any night worried about what the 143 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: NCAA is going to do down the road. I don't 144 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: even know that they'll exist by the time punitive measures 145 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: are meant to be handed down to me. So I 146 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: got my conference off my back. My coach is going 147 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: to miss some games. I don't think my team is 148 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: necessarily going to suffer all that much from losing that coach, 149 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: and actually, on the other side of the coin, maybe 150 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: we'll benefit from it. We're a player led team, We're 151 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: a veteran laden team. There's probably no team in America 152 00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: more equipped to operate without their leader on Saturday then 153 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: Michigan without Jim Harbaugh. So I look at it, and 154 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: it's not exactly the way I thought it was going 155 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: to conclude, but it largely concluded probably the best way 156 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: it could conclude. And I know a lot of people 157 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: again who who care more about the drama around the 158 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: sport than the sport itself. Are kind of upset. Hey, 159 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: I'm just excited that we get to talk about college 160 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 1: football games again. You know it is November, after all, 161 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: these are not the spring meetings. We do have competitive 162 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: games ready to be played forty eight hours from now, 163 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: and that's why we got to move on, because we've 164 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: got a jam packed show. You know, I said we're 165 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: headed up to Oregon State. We're headed up to Corvallis 166 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: tomorrow and we will be on the sideline Saturday for 167 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: Washington versus Oregon State. We've never been there before, and 168 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: who knows what the future holds. I know there is 169 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: a lot of legal maneuvering out there right now as 170 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: it relates to what the future of the PAC twelve is. 171 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: And I'm pulling for you guys as PAC twelve paate. 172 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: I have a very emotionally vested interest in what happens 173 00:08:56,040 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: to hashtag R conference. But in the meantime, hey, we're 174 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: full strength right now. So I'm gonna be out there 175 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: and I poncho in hand. I gotta watch out, man, 176 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: because as a lot of you ladies know that at 177 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: Rain can do can wreak havoc on your hair can 178 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,079 Speaker 1: just wreak havoc on your hair. So that's my one 179 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: major concern. Don't care about much else. That's my one 180 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: major concern. The once upon a Saturday tour commemorating this 181 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: trip is available now peytstatematerial dot Com. That T shirt 182 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: is there, and Colin, if you could take one a 183 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: for just a second, this sweet laptop sticker is also there. 184 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: And I gotta be honest with you. I had the 185 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: guys who run the store send me pretty much every 186 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: product we have, and I did not know that it 187 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: arrived like a month ago. So this Peate State Material 188 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: is PAYT State Freight's laptop sticker. It's just been sitting 189 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: in my mailbox for a month and I didn't even know. 190 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: It's a shame on me. Anyway, back to business. Do 191 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: you think this is the Saturday that all the major 192 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: upsets happen? We at this point have not had that Saturday. 193 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: We have not had that shake up Saturday, or you know, 194 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: tectonic Saturday. I call it volcanic Saturday. And I'm just 195 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: a believer that you can never go a full college 196 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: football season without having that one memorable Saturday. Everyone looks 197 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 1: back on and says that's the Saturday that blew up 198 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: the sport that given year, no one really expects it 199 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: this weekend. I expected it last weekend and we didn't 200 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: really get it. Now everyone's sort of looking towards rivalry 201 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: Saturday or maybe conference championship Saturday. And I'm like, let's 202 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: start with Michigan Maryland. That's a noon kickoff on Saturday, 203 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: and no one's talking about it because everyone's talking about hardball. 204 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: And Michigan's been obviously trending the right direction. Maryland has 205 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: been trending the wrong direction. The line at fandles nineteen 206 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,599 Speaker 1: and a half right now, Michigan favored by nineteen and 207 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: a half. And I ask this, and I'm going to 208 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: paper pop on the question, is Michigan immune to reality? 209 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: Here's what reality is. This is the second leg of 210 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: a back to back road stretch. It is sandwiched between 211 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: your two biggest games of the year. You've got all 212 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: the off the field stuff going on with your head coach. 213 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: This game last year was very close, Maryland played them close. 214 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: Thirty four to twenty seven was the final. Are you 215 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 1: immune to all that? Because most teams would be impacted 216 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: by that. The championship caliber teams, the ones that have 217 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: got there, you know what together in November. They sometimes 218 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 1: can be immune and it's teflone that stuff just bounces 219 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: off of them. Let's see, I got a sneaking suspicion. 220 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: Michigan can take care of business here, maybe even emphatically. 221 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: But let's see, I'm going to put a four on 222 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: this on the upset alert meter. What's my concern level? 223 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: Not very high. Four. But at the same time, it 224 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't be the biggest shock in the world. You know, 225 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: a quarterback who can push the ball down the field 226 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: and baby to a it wouldn't shock me. It wouldn't 227 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: be the biggest stock in the world if I turned 228 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: over their late third quarter, Oh, we still got a ballgame. 229 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 1: Let's see. The next one is very interesting because if 230 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: I were to ask you, guys, before you have checked 231 00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: the fan duel odds, what do you think about Louisville Miami? 232 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: You are what your record says you are. Crowd probably 233 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: thinks Louisville's favored by ten points and they're not. Louisville 234 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: is a short, short, one and a half point favorite 235 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: at Miami. This is also a noon kickoff. Notice a 236 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: trend here. You don't have to wait very long Saturday. 237 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: The next one I'm gonna talk about it's also a 238 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: noon kickoff. You don't have to wait very long Saturday 239 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: to start potentially seeing some upsets brewing. I would call 240 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: this a fortitude Saturday for Miami. Like Miami, the world's 241 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: gonna tell you, you don't have anything to play for, 242 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: You've always got pride to play for. You guys have 243 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: shot your own selves in the foot, partly with poor 244 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: decision making in the Georgia Tech Game, partly with turnovers 245 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: into other big games, or else you'd be in the 246 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: thick of this ACC Championship race. Well, as it turns out, 247 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: you still got a shot to make a lot of noise. 248 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: Tyler van Dyke got benched and Marie Williams went down, 249 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: You're reinserted to make the most of it. You got 250 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: a chance against one of the favorites. Now we're the 251 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: favorite co favorite to go to the ACC Championship game 252 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: to show what fortitude you have. Fortitude is courage in 253 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: pain or adversity. A lot of teams would lay down 254 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: in this spot. Miami gonna lay down or you're gonna 255 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: play one of your best games of the year. I 256 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: think they'll have success running the ball, even as Louisville 257 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: has been really good against the run. I just don't 258 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: think they faced enough high caliber running attacks, and I 259 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 1: think you'll see a higher caliber rushing attack with Miami 260 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: this Saturday. I'm going to put an eight on this one. 261 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: I mean, the line's very short, it's one and a half, 262 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna put an eight on it. That's the 263 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: upset alert meter for that one. What about Penn State? 264 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: Without even knowing who they're playing, you assume this could 265 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: be a really flat spot for them. Oh, it's fair 266 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: to assume that. I guess they're playing Rutgers another noon 267 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: kickoff on Saturday. What's in the tank? After you lost 268 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: to Michigan the way you did, what's in the tank? 269 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: We all know what the goal was. The goal was 270 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: to beat at least one of Ohio State. Michigan. Well, 271 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: that's down the drain now, uh And I don't know 272 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: after they played Ohio State. The offense did eventually bounce 273 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: back a couple of weeks later against Maryland. But what 274 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: did we see last week? We saw complete ineptitude offensively. 275 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: Now here's what else we saw which gives me a 276 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: little bit of courage for Penn State this week, and 277 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: that is they fired. They fired the offensive coordinator, Jaywan Sider, 278 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: friend of this program, is going to have the play 279 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: calling duties this Saturday. So do they avoid is Chiano's special? 280 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: Greg Ciano is with they would love nothing more than 281 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: to get this one, cause no one cares about the circumstances. 282 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: If you're a twenty and a half point favorite and 283 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: Chiano and Rutgers take you down, no one cares that 284 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: the air had been let out of your tires the 285 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: week before. It is a huge, not a career defining upset, 286 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: but a big upset for him. And that's when it 287 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: would go from let's just make some changes to a 288 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: conversation that sounds a little bit different for Franklin. I 289 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: don't mean hot set. I just mean ten and two 290 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: losses to the two big boys. Okay, nine and three 291 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: with a loss of Rutgers thrown in there just because 292 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: you couldn't get back up off the deck. That's a 293 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: different conversation. I'm gonna put a five on this one 294 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,479 Speaker 1: and keep an eye on it. Next up, North Carolina 295 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: is at Clemson. Oh no, no, no, Jesse, is this 296 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: number right? This is another this is another big lie special? 297 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: Oh no, what am I talking about? Well, if you're 298 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: new around here, thank you for joining us. By the way, 299 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: if you're new, people lie about this sport all the time. 300 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't like it. I don't encourage it, but it happens, 301 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: and I have to live with it. Check that. No, 302 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: I don't. I have to call it out. One of 303 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: the biggest lies ever told in college football sounds like this, 304 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: you are what your record says you are. Well, I 305 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: have got a six and four Clemson favored by nearly 306 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown against eight and two North Carolina Saturday. But Josh, 307 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: that's home field advantage. They're playing at Clemson. Let's just 308 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: be ultra aggressive and say Vegas gives Clemson four points 309 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: for home field. They probably don't, but let's just be 310 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: ultra aggressive to remove all argument. That still leaves the 311 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: Tigers as a two to three point favorite on a 312 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: neutral field. Does Vegas not know the records of these teams? 313 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: You are not always what your record says you are 314 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: in this sport. Having said that, this is an upset 315 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: alert game, it's just the team that you think should be. 316 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 1: On episode alert, it's not the one on upset alert 317 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: plus the six and four teams is the one that's 318 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: favored by nearly a touchdown. There are some crazy, crazy 319 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: six or seven paragraph deep tiebreaker scenarios that could theoretically 320 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: enter the equation. If North Carolina pulls this off, and 321 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 1: if Louisville loses to Miami, the conference probably still sees 322 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: Louisville play for a conference title, but there's this small 323 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: shot for North Carolina. Having said that, the model loves 324 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: Clemson this week, and it's actually one of our best bets. 325 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: It's on the Raman Noodle Express. We gave that out 326 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: the other night. So I'm putting this at a five, 327 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: a very modest five. Mac Brown. It was announced today 328 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: will be back for twenty twenty four, so that's not 329 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: really that much of a talking point. There's no controversy there, 330 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: at least in the immediacy. I think Clemson is going 331 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: to take care of business. Saturday still worth watching. It's 332 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: a three thirty kickoff. And lastly, this game Saturday night, 333 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: eight o'clock. It is Texas Iowa State. Texas at FanDuel 334 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 1: right now is favored by seven and a half. I 335 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: am putting a ten on this. Why because I love 336 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: Iowa State. That's why I don't have to pretend otherwise. 337 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: And I actually think that there could be some merit 338 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: to this, So it's not a pretend ten. You see 339 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: what I did there. I actually think when you tune 340 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: into this one Saturday night, I think it's a Fox 341 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 1: game eight o'clock. It's the first game with that. Jonathan 342 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 1: Brooks for Texas, I have concern if they don't get 343 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: off to a fast start now as we seen, even 344 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: if they do get off to a fast start, it 345 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: could be trouble later down the road somehow. That is 346 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: a thing with Texas this year. But also I happen 347 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: to believe that you only have a finite amount of 348 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 1: these instances where you just sort of skate by and 349 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: TCU last year notwithstanding, I happen to believe in that. 350 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: So they go to Iowa State this week. Do the 351 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: Texas Longhorns again. We are a big believer the second 352 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: stretch in those back to back of road game stretches, 353 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: the second leg, that's the one that bites you more 354 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: times than not. It's certainly a super Bowl situation for 355 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: Iowa State. Iowa State is still in the Big twelve 356 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: Championship picture too. I'm putting a ten on this one. 357 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: I'm very concerned for Texas, very concerned. And so I 358 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: saw them in person go on the road and beat Alabama. 359 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: How crazy would it be if they pulled that off 360 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 1: and yet still had two losses in the regular season? 361 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:59,239 Speaker 1: Come Big twelve Championship week. Well, everybody's got them penciled in, 362 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: and I think I think pencil is probably the appropriate 363 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: tool to be riding in right now. Don't ride an 364 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: ink yet, kids, lot can still happen. We're actually going 365 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: to talk about that later in the show. All right, 366 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: let's continue moving, and let's move right over to this 367 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 1: beautiful monitor over my right shoulder. Academy Sports and Outdoors. 368 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: I have got not one, not two, but three bullet 369 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,239 Speaker 1: points in front of me because we got three new 370 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: stores opening this week. So if you don't have one 371 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: in your backyard, I may be about to change that 372 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: for you. First up, for our friends down in West 373 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: Palm Beach, Florida, Port Saint Lucie, Florida, fifteen to twenty 374 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: five north West Saint Lucy West Boulevard, It sounds like 375 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: sounds like a lot of directions but that is the 376 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: address for this place. Grand opening going down this weekend. Huddo, Texas. 377 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: That's in the Austin Market Town West Commons two fifty Alliance. 378 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: I'm just giving you some addresses here. And thirdly down 379 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: in Harlingen, Texas, that's the Brownsville Market Expressway eighty three 380 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: and Dixie Land Road. Any of you make your way 381 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: to any of these locations and provide photographic or video 382 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: evidence publicly that you showed up and supported our brand. 383 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 1: I am entering you to win a chalice of Supremacy. 384 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: We're giving away five of them this weekend. We just 385 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: gave away five last weekend. Those are shipping out today 386 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 1: or tomorrow, by the way, So I appreciate you guys 387 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: for that. Academy. I had a nice little conversation with 388 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: our academy folks today. They are big believers in the chalice, 389 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: and while they don't sell them themselves yet, they do 390 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: sell pretty much everything else you need. Tailgating equipment, camping equipment, 391 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: hunting equipment, basketball, baseball, football, you get it. Also, big 392 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: league chew in the checkout lines. Probably one of my 393 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: favorite traditions for our audience is when they go to Academy, 394 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: they buy a pouch of Big League chew in the 395 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: checkout line. Wholesome, wholesome stuff. Let's continue. Let me take 396 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: a sip from the chalice. It is appropriate that we 397 00:20:51,720 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: have maroon ish colored liquid in the chalice because the stuff, 398 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: for lack of a more appropriate word, at Texas A 399 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: and M, is still happening. So, as you know, Colin, 400 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: here's your good endpoint. As you know, Jimbo Fisher's been fired, 401 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: there's a coaching search happening at Texas A and M. 402 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: Now I do want to talk about the kind of 403 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: mechanisms involved in the search. First. I am more resolute 404 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: today even than I was the other day in saying 405 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: there are names in play for this job that you 406 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: don't even know are available because it's that good a job. 407 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: How good a job it is, don't worry. I'll loop 408 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: around to that nonsense in a second. For those who 409 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: understand this industry, in this sport, they know this is 410 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: a tier one job, not two tier one job. Everything 411 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: they need as head coaching candidates they have at Texas 412 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 1: A and M, and so it is attracting a lot 413 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: of attention. Obviously, I was listening to longtime friend of 414 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: the program, Billy Luchi. She and the folks over at 415 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: Texas talk the other day, and what he said was 416 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: the same thing that I had heard about when they 417 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: fired Jimbo. See, sometimes when you fire a head coach, 418 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: it's conventional wisdom that you wouldn't have fired that guy 419 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: if you didn't already have his replacement lined up. I 420 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: heard That's not what Texas A and M did. Luci 421 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 1: basically runs that place, also echoed that sentiment, that's not 422 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: what they did. Now. They may have a sheet they 423 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: can pull out. Ross Beorke may have that sheet you 424 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: know that every ad talks about in their top drawer 425 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: that they could pull out at any given moment. I'm 426 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: sure he has that. I'm sure he didn't make the 427 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 1: decision to fire Jimbo and say, well, now, what are 428 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: we gonna do now. I wasn't quite that foggy. But 429 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 1: I can also promise you they didn't have a name 430 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: in sharpie already written down and agreed to in principle 431 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: before they walked down the hallway and said, Jimbo, this 432 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 1: is it. You're out. What they do have is supreme 433 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: confidence that the value of their job is kind of 434 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: a on the lines of what I'm talking about, and 435 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: the early returns are that's being validated by the interest 436 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: from all four corners of the country that they're getting. 437 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: I say that geographically, very intentionally. There are a lot 438 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: of names interested in this job. Now. I have been 439 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: asked on a bunch of radio hits I've done in 440 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: the state of Texas and elsewhere this week, what kind 441 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: of person is a fit? At an m When I 442 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 1: was driving back from the airport the other day, I 443 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: was talking to Cubic and we were talking about that. 444 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: We were talking about what fit even means, and I'm 445 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: pretty much in agreement with him that it's a very 446 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: very overused and misunderstood term in coaching searches. And I'll 447 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: take you back just two years ago, a guy by 448 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 1: the name of Brian Kelly got hired at LSU and people, 449 00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: some people said he's not a fit there. He's not 450 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 1: a fit why, I asked, and they just kind of 451 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: rambled incoherently, and they said things about his accent and 452 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: he's never lived in the South, and just stuff that 453 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: has very little to do with football. And I countered 454 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 1: with the blueprint and the formula that wins in college football, 455 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: and I said, hey, the critical factors that win at 456 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: Notre Dame are the critical factors that win at Clemson. 457 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: Are the critical factors that win at Oklahoma? Are the 458 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: critical factors that win at LSU. There are some non negotiables. 459 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: There may be some different ornaments and trappings here and 460 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: there on the Notre Dame tree versus the LSU tree, 461 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,239 Speaker 1: but by and large, the same stuff wins that has 462 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: always won everywhere across the country with comparable resources. And 463 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: then Brian Kelly went and won the SEC West and 464 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,719 Speaker 1: everyone shut up about culture and fit. And that's exactly 465 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: what would happen no matter who A and M goes 466 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: and gets. The moment he comes in there, he could 467 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: talk with the thickest New England accent in the history 468 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: of the state of Texas. If the guy wins, he's 469 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: a good fit. Conversely, he could walk in with a 470 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: belt buckle viewable from the space station and straw sticking 471 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: out of his mouth with a cowboy hat on, and 472 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: if he loses, he's not a good fit. Like fit 473 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: is about doing what it takes to win in sports, 474 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 1: college football is no different. And so when we start 475 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: looking at a list of candidates. That's what I care about. 476 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: Do I think the guy can win there? I don't 477 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: really frankly care about all the other stuff on the periphery. 478 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: And a third thing that I'm picking up on a 479 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: lot as I peruse a lot of message boards and 480 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: listen to a lot of fans talk because I'm always 481 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: fascinated by what the fan base thinks during a coaching 482 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: search is what's the best way to put this Mema 483 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 1: didn't have a really good quote for this. She wasn't 484 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: really into coaching searches. It's important to spend what's needed 485 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: at a time like this. It is not imperative to 486 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: just spend what you have. And the best way I 487 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: can equate this is I was at the Michigan Penn 488 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: State game last Saturday, and Michigan famously at this point 489 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: ran the ball like thirty plus times in a row 490 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: to end the game. Now, I guarantee you on that 491 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: offensive play sheet that was laminated that those coaches have 492 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: there were a number of pass plays that they worked 493 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: on a lot, and they repped in practiced Tuesday during 494 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 1: installs that they never ran. And the reason they never 495 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: ran those plays is because they realized, we've got a 496 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: vice grip on this game right now, and we don't 497 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: need to just because we practice them. Just because we 498 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 1: have them doesn't mean we have to run them. Coaching 499 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: searches are the same way. Just because you have deep pockets, 500 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: just because there are some flashy candidates out there that 501 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: would steal the mainstream headlines and win the press conference, 502 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 1: it doesn't necessarily mean that's the right guy for the job. 503 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: And Number two, just because you can pay someone at 504 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: eleven point five million a year and reset the pay 505 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: scale in college football doesn't mean you have to. I 506 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: know you guys have mixed emotions on a guy like 507 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: Trailer at UTSA. I'm not even inserting him as my 508 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: favorite or anything. I'm just saying, as a matter of principle, 509 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: let's just say he's the best guy for the job. 510 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 1: Let's say Mike Elko is the best guy for the job. 511 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: Those aren't the biggest headline grabbers in the history of 512 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: the sport on the day they're hired. But if they're 513 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: the right candidate, they're the right candidate. And if you 514 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: don't have to break the bank to get him, that's 515 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: just an added bonus. But sometimes if you know you 516 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: got money, Like, if I know I got money, it 517 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if this steakhouse down here all off an 518 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: exit in Hamilton, Georgia really has the best steak in 519 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: the West Central Georgia region. If I know, I got 520 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: a four and a half star establishment down the road 521 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: in Columbus, up the road in Atlanta, and I can 522 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: afford it. Sometimes people are dumb enough to just go 523 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: there and pay the money because they think they have to. 524 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 1: Since they you don't have to. You can go to 525 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: Hunter's Pub. You can go to Hunter's Pub and you 526 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: get you a nice rabbi gets you a nice filet mignon, 527 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: as we would call it in Harris County for under 528 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: fifty dollars. It is a wild, wild time in this 529 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: coaching search stove. So I want to revert you back 530 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: to a theme that's existed on this show since the 531 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: moment that Jimbo got fired. And it's a little game 532 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: we play that only has losers, and it's called how 533 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: good a job is Texas A and M. And you 534 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: may think this is worn out, and you may think, well, 535 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: you already talked about this. You're right, Yes, yes, you're right, 536 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: I have Yes, it's worn out. But I have discovered 537 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: this kind of It's funny. There are people who call 538 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: A and M fans a cult, and it's crazy because 539 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: the cultish like nature of Texas A and M fandom 540 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: pales in comparison to the cult of people who exist 541 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: on the Internet that claim A and M is not 542 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: a Tier one job. It's like college football flat Earth. 543 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: I never knew they existed, And all of a sudden 544 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 1: they make their argument like a flat earther would, and 545 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 1: at first you laugh because you think they're joking with you, 546 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: but they keep their face straight, and then they just 547 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: stare at you and you go like this. You go, oh, 548 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: are you serious? And they look at you and say 549 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: mm hmm. And then you ask them to present their evidence, 550 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: and it just twists your mind in a pretzel and 551 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: they never smile the whole time, and they just get 552 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: more and more serious. So, Colin, could you do me 553 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: a favor because you show tweet number one, I've just 554 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: compiled some examples in classical fashion. The word your is 555 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: gonna be misspelled ninety percent of the time when these 556 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: people try and slander you. If you're listening on podcasts. 557 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: I had a guy come at me because I committed 558 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: the sin of broad strokes comparing Georgia pre Kirby to 559 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: A and M. And all I was trying to say was, 560 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: once upon a time there were people who said Georgia 561 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: can't win a national championship even though they have good resources. 562 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: They just there's something about the program. So it's not 563 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: the best job in America. It's not a tier one job. 564 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: Georgia was always a tier one job, waiting for the 565 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: right candidate. It got the right candidate. That dude named 566 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: Kirby smart walked in, demanded the resources they always had. 567 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: They finally came off the hip pocket, and they've won 568 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: multiple titles. This dude comes at me and says, you're 569 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: comparing apples to oranges. Yo, you are, You're you're comparing 570 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: apples to oranges. Georgia last won a national championship. It 571 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: wasn't before World War Two, though they had won the 572 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: SEC multiple times in the last twenty years. A and 573 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: M can't make it to Atlanta. All you this is 574 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: a money quote. People listen to this. All you look 575 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: at is money and resources, But there are other factors 576 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: as well. Your casual again, yo, you are, I don't 577 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: know what about my casual he's he's referencing. But listen 578 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: to that sentence. All you look at is money and resources, 579 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: but there are factors as well, Like what I never 580 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: get an answer, by the way, I always ask what 581 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: in addition to money and resources makes a job tier 582 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: one for the right candidate? Like do you think Nick 583 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: Saban looked at Alabama, saw that they had money and 584 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: resources and said, mmmm, there's some other things I need. No, 585 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: he came in and if there was a rogue booster 586 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,239 Speaker 1: that needed to be taken care of, he disassociated him 587 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: from the program. You know, if there were facility upgradings 588 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: that needed to happen, he did that. If there were 589 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: people administratively that didn't understand how the game's played, he 590 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: looked him in the eye and said, it's either you 591 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: or me. Okay, the right candidate does that. That's the 592 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: whole point. You don't have to do the apples to 593 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: apples comparison with Georgia A and M. I feel like 594 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is common sense. That's why I get 595 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: a little worked up. Colin, Please go to the next tweek. 596 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: So the next week involves a guy coming at me 597 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: and saying you're dealing with SEC fans, so it's not 598 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: a surprise, but it doesn't change the fact that your 599 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: A and M take is wrong. So I asked the guy, 600 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: what is my A and M take? How is it wrong? 601 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 1: And what is the right take? Guess who didn't respond, 602 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 1: the dude who made the allegation. And then I dug 603 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: a little ways into the replies to said tweet, and 604 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: I did find something that's interesting, and that's the third tweet. Colin, 605 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: if you'll throw this up, because this is an argument 606 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: that I used to hear about A and M. And 607 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: I think the expiration date has long passed on this argument. 608 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: But at least there was a thoughtful response here, and 609 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: this person said, I think A and M is a 610 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 1: good job, but I would not call it elite because 611 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: it's going to be in Texas's shadow whenever Texas is good. 612 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: They were able to recruit effectively when UT was down, 613 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: but I think as UT keeps showing consistency, A and 614 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: M is going to have trouble recruiting in state. Okay, 615 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: on the surface, that's wrong, just on the surface, even 616 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: if you did have to live in the shadow of Texas, 617 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 1: there are too many elite kids in the state of 618 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: Texas to say that. Okay. Secondly, no one's taken one 619 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: hundred percent of the kids they want in Texas, including 620 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: University of Texas. And that's if sark Win's multiple titles. 621 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: It's just not realistic. That's not the way it works. 622 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: Number three, let me zoom out a little bit here. 623 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. A and M does not 624 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: take a back seat to Texas anymore. That's Big twelve talk. 625 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: I mean, that's Southwest Conference garbage. This is the SEC 626 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: they're about to be in. Texas does not have any 627 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: bigger seat in the SEC than A and M does. 628 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: That is a bygone mentality and folks need to shake it. 629 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: And I know what bas is. I know what battered 630 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: Aggie syndrome is. Trust me, I'm familiar with it. I 631 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: know the history of that program. I know why it exists. 632 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: It doesn't have to exist. That's a rear view thing. 633 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: That's not a windshield thing. You come to this conference, 634 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: which you guys already have, and then you you don't 635 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: welcome Texas in, but you watch them walk in. They 636 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: sit in a seat the same size as yours. The 637 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: circle includes what at that point fifteen other member institutions. 638 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: The only edge Texas has on you is one you 639 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: let them get. The one they get competitively, the one 640 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 1: they get through out coaching you and out recruiting you. 641 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: It won't be because twenty seven different mechanisms exist in 642 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: the construction and infrastructure of the conference they're in that 643 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: give them a leg up. That is not the way 644 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: this is going to work moving forward. If A and 645 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: M's in Texas's shadow, it's going to be because A 646 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: and M hasn't done things on their end to make 647 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: sure they're not. But there is no limiting factor in 648 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 1: the SEC that will artificially prop up Texas over Texas 649 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 1: A and M. So I don't believe in that anymore. 650 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: I will suggest you guys adopt that mentality as well. Clayton, 651 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: North Carolina is tuned in Modena, Italy. I hear it's 652 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: nice this time of year. They're tuned in. Waverley Hall, 653 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: George is tuned in. We had to beat those boys 654 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: several times to go to the city championship back in 655 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: the day. Go Mudcats. Next up. A lot of hot 656 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 1: seats out there, guys, A lot of seats are warming up, 657 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 1: a lot of coaching searches going on, but we may 658 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: have more coaching searches in the immediate future. What's happening 659 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: with Chip Kelly at UCLA? You might ask, well, I 660 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: told you the other night Brewin Report online dot Com 661 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: reporting via multiple sources that Kelly is likely out after 662 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 1: the USC game. Now that's not finalized, it strongly looks 663 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 1: like that's going to be the case. If he loses 664 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: this next game they play USC this Saturday, he will 665 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: have a thirty three and thirty four record at UCLA. 666 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: My feeling on this, as I listen to some of 667 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: the dialogue out there, is that there may be a 668 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 1: warped sense of what UCLA football is and could be. 669 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: And I think folks are making an NIL mistake here. 670 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: Folks are looking at NIL and they're saying Chip Kelly 671 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: has not invigorated the donor class to contribute in the 672 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: way of NIL enough. And I'm not necessarily pushing back 673 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: on that part. I think there is a very very 674 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: warped sense of what tapping into your NIL potential is. 675 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:16,280 Speaker 1: So I think there's an idea that people have, because 676 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: NIL is still new, that if you fire Chip Kelly 677 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: and let's say you brought in Lane Kiffrin or Jonathan 678 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 1: Smith or Jedfish whoever you want to go after. You 679 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 1: brought your ideal candidate and they agree to the job, 680 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: and they all of a sudden get more nil infusion. 681 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: The misnomer is that that elevates you above the pack 682 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,919 Speaker 1: to a certain extent. It elevates you twenty percent, thirty percent, 683 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,720 Speaker 1: forty percent above the pack. You're not elevating above the pack. 684 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: The pack also is getting nil infusion. You're about to 685 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: go playing the Big ten. The pack twelve's done, You're 686 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: going to play in the Big ten. They play the 687 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 1: nil game already. You're playing nil just to catch up 688 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: to them. Now, well, you may say, well, Josh, isn't 689 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: that what you want to do? Yes, it is. What 690 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: I'm asking is who do you think you are? As UCLA. 691 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 1: I don't ask that sarcastically. I ask it very literally. 692 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: Who do you think you are? Do you think that 693 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,879 Speaker 1: you are ten wins per year? Do you think that's 694 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 1: the caliber program you are? I've got bad news for you. 695 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: If that's what you think. That is not what you are. 696 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: That's not what you will be because you are not 697 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 1: using nil to separate and go above the pack. You're 698 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 1: using nil just to keep up. And so what I'm 699 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 1: saying is that infusion of nil money once you get 700 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: to this new home of yours, will be used just 701 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,439 Speaker 1: to maintain your current status. Your current status. What would 702 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 1: you say, Jesse? Do they average about seven wins a 703 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 1: year or something like that? I mean that's their current 704 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: status out there, could be eight, could be six. My 705 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,879 Speaker 1: point is, and I really wonder who do you think 706 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: you are? Who does UCLA Football think it is? Next up? 707 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,799 Speaker 1: Billy Napier at Florida the other day. I didn't say 708 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: any wrong. I said what I believe to be true 709 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 1: and still believe to be true, and that is his 710 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 1: fate is attached to next year and this upcoming recruiting cycle. 711 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: Some people took that to mean I was putting Napier 712 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: on the hot seat. I'm not doing that. You just 713 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: heard the wrong part of the clip. So A, we 714 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: should be more careful with how we clip videos. I 715 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: guess that's on us. B. I'm not saying that I 716 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: think he's safe. I don't think Billion Napier is going anywhere, 717 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: and I would encourage you guys go to twenty four 718 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 1: seven sports dot com. There was a nice collective effort 719 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: today to put together the latest that our staff has 720 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 1: heard in regards to Billy Napier a number of other guys, 721 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: And one of the welcome portions of that piece that 722 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: I read was the thinking around Gainesville is Billy Napier 723 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: will be pushed or push himself to relinquish play calling duties, 724 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: hire a play calling offensive coordinator, and also do a 725 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 1: way with having two offensive line coaches and actually hire 726 00:38:56,400 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: a special teams coordinator. That alone would be a welcome 727 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: couple of changes for Florida football. Look Like I said, 728 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 1: I think he's got at least one year left, and 729 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: I think it would be very, very foolish to suggest 730 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 1: otherwise or to actually do otherwise. They are five and 731 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: five right now. They've got to pull an up set 732 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: in one of these last two weeks to make a 733 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: bowl game. I think they'll be competitive in both games. 734 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: They've got Missouri this week. I got more on that 735 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: game later actually, and they got Florida State at home 736 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: at the end of the year. They sold that game out. 737 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: I don't think this is a dead and buried team 738 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: as of yet. I don't believe that, and I think 739 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 1: Napier's safe for at least one more year. I do 740 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 1: not think Dana Holgerson is safe at Houston. I reached 741 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: out to some folks on this today. I think he's 742 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: coaching for his job the next two weeks. They are 743 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: four and six right now, they got Oklahoma State and 744 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: then at Central Florida to end the year. Their recruiting 745 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: class is currently one hundred and first in the country. 746 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: They're right next to Eastern Michigan. Houston's in the Big 747 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: twelve now they are a Power five team. You can 748 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: never suck that bad recruiting in Houston. You just can't. 749 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: It's inexcusable. And so there's a lot of thinking. I 750 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,839 Speaker 1: think he's got about a fifteen million dollar buyout. There 751 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: is some thinking, including this past off season by Dana 752 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 1: Holgerson himself, that he's got too big a buyout. Not 753 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: when you got the kind of billionaire as they do 754 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: in Houston, you don't have too big a buyout. And 755 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: one in particular, I think you guys know who I'm 756 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 1: talking about down there. So I do not think the 757 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 1: buyout will be a sticking point. That's been echoed to 758 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: me in the past couple of hours. I think he's 759 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: coaching for his job. I took that to me, and 760 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: they need to make a bowl or he's gone. That's 761 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: how it loosely translated in my mind. So let's watch 762 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: that closely because that, if it came open, would be 763 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: a pretty underrated and desirable job Houston. Stop thinking about 764 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 1: them as a G five. That is a power five, 765 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: that's a Big twelve program. Now, Dave Randa at Baylor 766 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: three and seven, My best intel today is he needs 767 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 1: to avoid disaster over the final two games, and those 768 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,839 Speaker 1: two games are at TCU in West Virginia. I don't 769 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: necessarily think he has to win them, just don't have 770 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:18,000 Speaker 1: things totally and utterly implode. And if you can parlay 771 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 1: that with his agreement to make big changes coaching staff wise, 772 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: even though they're three and seven, I think my best 773 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: feel right now is Dave I. Randa can buy himself 774 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: another season. I don't think that's final. I don't think 775 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: he's totally safe, nothing like that. This stuff can change 776 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: at the drop of a hat. But as we head 777 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: into the second to last week of the season right now, 778 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 1: kind of sixty forty sixty five to thirty five, I 779 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 1: would lean random maintaining his job. I'll tell you a 780 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: name that keeps getting brought up to me and I 781 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,399 Speaker 1: agree with it, and that's Barry Otem, not hot seat, 782 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 1: like Barry Otem's out at UNLV right now, just tearing 783 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,400 Speaker 1: it up. Man, This is the guy who has sec 784 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,439 Speaker 1: head coach experience, got coordinator experience, been around a long time, 785 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: went out to UNLV. All they're doing right now is 786 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: playing at a level that has them on track to 787 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: maybe even host the Mountain West Championship game. UNLV is 788 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,760 Speaker 1: not supposed to be playing for the Mountain West Championship. Okay, 789 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: the paper, you know that this game's played on in 790 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: spring and summer, said UNLV kind of a little bit 791 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 1: of an afterthought. This year, nu Odam went out there, 792 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: just inverted him overnight, doing a heck of a job. 793 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: Very highly respected. I would keep my eye on him 794 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: for a number of these programs, including in case you 795 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 1: didn't pick up what I was putting down, some jobs 796 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 1: that haven't opened yet. Barry Odom is a name I 797 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: think probably administrators and football people are higher on than 798 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 1: just general fans, because all you probably remember is will 799 00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: He was fired as a head coach at Missouri, and 800 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 1: then last year the defense at Arkansas wasn't all that great, 801 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: and that's that's kind of what you rem and I'm 802 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 1: just telling you there's a lot more to it than that. 803 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 1: So I'm keeping an eye on Barry Otam and you know, 804 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 1: my boy John Summer all down at Troy. I'm keeping 805 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 1: a close eye on as well. Just just some names 806 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,439 Speaker 1: that we have hitched our wagon to here at Payton State. 807 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: We don't have an opening of course, but if we did, 808 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 1: those are two calls I would make. We got some 809 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: good Twitter questions here, let's dial some of these up. 810 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,359 Speaker 1: I am. I'm myself and fascinated at this first one. 811 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,800 Speaker 1: So with all this playoff talk, rider from Birmingham, Alabama 812 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: hit me up. He said, if BAMA beats Georgia in 813 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 1: the SEC Championship game, could they actually be left out 814 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: of the playoff? Now we're taking some liberties here. Everybody 815 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: is this time of year, people are taking liberties that 816 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: Bama is just gonna waltz into Jerden Hare Stadium and 817 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: beat Auburn. No problem. Maybe they do, maybe they don't. Like. 818 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: My point is it's not just a slam dunk that 819 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 1: Bama is a one lost team when they get to Atlanta. 820 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 1: But anyway. I know that's not fun to talk about. 821 00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 1: Everyone thinks all the Chalk's gonna hold the COMP championship Saturday. 822 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 1: So I'll meet you halfway. I'll play that game with you. 823 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 1: Let me make this short and sweet. If Alabama does 824 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: beat Georgia and they're a twelve and one SEC champion, 825 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: yes there's a way that the SEC is left out 826 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 1: of the playoff. It's as simple as this, guys. If 827 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: Washington stayed undefeated, if Florida stayed undefeated, Ohio State or 828 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: Michigan one of them's undefeated, and Texas won the Big 829 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: Twelve with one loss, Bama's not going to the playoff. 830 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 1: That's as simple as that. I'd have Bama power rated 831 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: over one to three of those four teams. But I 832 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 1: would sit here definitively and tell you on Selection Sunday, 833 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: you can't put Alabama in that playoff. You can't. You 834 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 1: can't put him in over Texas. I don't care who 835 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 1: Vegas would favor, I don't care who the JP pole 836 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 1: would favor. If those are comparable teams and one of 837 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 1: them went into Tuscaloosa and beat the other, you can't 838 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,839 Speaker 1: do that. It's about results on the field, you can't 839 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: do that. But as I just expended a lot of 840 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 1: breath saying that, I don't think that's gonna be the 841 00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: situation because I'm looking on a piece of paper here 842 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 1: at how many twists and turns this season has left, 843 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 1: and I don't think nearly all of that chalk is 844 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 1: gonna hold. I'm telling you, if Bama wins out, I 845 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 1: think they'll be in the playoff because I think if 846 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,480 Speaker 1: that team in Crimson there takes care of their business, 847 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,959 Speaker 1: Florida State still has to go to Florida and still 848 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 1: has to play probably Louisville. Texas has Iowa State on 849 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,760 Speaker 1: the road this week, Texas Tech on short rest at home, 850 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 1: and then a Big twelve championship game. Washington is a 851 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:37,919 Speaker 1: point spread underdog this Saturday at Oregon State. Then they've 852 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 1: got Washington State, then maybe a PAC twelve championship game. 853 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 1: Oregon's on the road against Arizona State before they play 854 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 1: Oregon State on short rest, and then they got the 855 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 1: PAC twelve championship game. I don't know if you guys 856 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 1: have watched this sport a lot, but this is not 857 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 1: the way it plays out. This is not a simulation. 858 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: This is not paper, These teams are gonna have to 859 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: strap up and actually play these games. These favorites are 860 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 1: not skating through all of this. And so I'm a 861 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: believer the SEC is not going to get left out 862 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 1: unless the SEC finds a way to force its own 863 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: self out. And what that would look like is, you know, 864 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:17,439 Speaker 1: if if some of that chalk holds and Bama goes 865 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 1: twelve and one and wins, the SEC, yeah they could 866 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,320 Speaker 1: be left out. Georgia. You know, they play at Tennessee 867 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 1: this Saturday. And while I picked Georgia to win the game, 868 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 1: if Georgia were to lose that game and then go 869 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 1: beat Alabama, well what's a twelve and one Georgia gonna do. 870 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:34,839 Speaker 1: You got a bunch of folks on the committee saying 871 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 1: two time, defending this and that, like that's supposed to 872 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 1: actually mean anything. Georgia may be left out. But that's 873 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,240 Speaker 1: if all that chalk holds. I don't think it'll hold. 874 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,880 Speaker 1: I think a twelve And here's where I get interested. Okay, 875 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 1: all that I think. 876 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:51,480 Speaker 2: We get where it would just be be really really 877 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:56,399 Speaker 2: uncomfortable is if let's say you had the big ten 878 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 2: team in whoever it is, Let's say Florida State takes 879 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 2: care of business. 880 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 1: You got them m and let's even say Texas is 881 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 1: in and then you got Orgon that wins the PAC twelve. 882 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm a big believer at the moment that whether I 883 00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: like it or not, come selection Sunday, there would be 884 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 1: strong to overwhelming sentiment in that room to put one 885 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 1: loss Alabama or one loss Georgia in over Oregon. And 886 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:32,319 Speaker 1: I especially think there would be sentiment to put in 887 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:36,919 Speaker 1: one loss Alabama over Oregon. And honestly, until I see 888 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 1: the final resume sitting in front of me, I can't 889 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 1: even tell you whether I like that or not, So 890 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: let me stop short of that. I also wonder aloud, 891 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: and I don't know this. This is just me purely 892 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 1: throwing it out for speculation. I wonder what PAC twelve 893 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: affiliation means. I know what SEC affiliation means. What does 894 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 1: PAC twelve affiliation mean in the last year of the 895 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,040 Speaker 1: PAC twelve. Like in the future, you don't have to 896 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 1: worry about this if you're Oregon or Washington, but in 897 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 1: the meantime you do. Does it matter? It shouldn't, but 898 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 1: does it matter in that committee room? I think it 899 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: may if it came down to blind resume and look, 900 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 1: Pama's resume may just be good enough to be in 901 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 1: over Oregon period. But if it were, you know, fifty 902 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 1: two forty eight. Either way, I really wonder if that's 903 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 1: what tilts the Sea saw. I don't think the SEC 904 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 1: is gonna get left out. I think they're gonna find 905 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 1: a waym But to answer your question, yes, there is 906 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: a way. It's just it's a very very narrow needle 907 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 1: that you will have to really finally threaten. I don't 908 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 1: think this sport's good enough to do it. Next up, 909 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 1: this is a tough question because the season's not complete, 910 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 1: but we're gonna go forward anyway. Kyler in Frisco, Texas 911 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 1: asked who are your most disappointing teams so far this year? 912 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,279 Speaker 1: I assume you guys have answers for me. I am 913 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 1: supremely disappointed in USC. They're seven and four right now, 914 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: there are seasons almost over. They got one more game 915 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:02,319 Speaker 1: left because some how USC worked a buy in for 916 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving week, and we thought, once upon a time, if 917 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: they make the conference championship game, they're gonna have a 918 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,480 Speaker 1: buye before the PAC twelve championship game, which would have 919 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 1: been all kinds of salacious, but they're not. They're gonna 920 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,319 Speaker 1: be sitting at home. At least they get to go 921 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,919 Speaker 1: home for Thanksgiving. They are seven and four that were 922 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 1: never close defensively this year. They went and portaled some 923 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,400 Speaker 1: kids in but they didn't portal a new philosophy in 924 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 1: so supremely disappointed in USC. You know what, I'm a 925 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: little disappointed in LSU. And LSU has been a good team. 926 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: How about this. This sounds hypocritical, I know, because the 927 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,319 Speaker 1: JP pole has LSU as a top ten team right now, 928 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:41,840 Speaker 1: but that's a power rating. The fact is they're a 929 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 1: three loss team and they I hate saying this this 930 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: way because you know, I value every game. But in 931 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 1: a way, they have wasted Jaden Daniels this year. And 932 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 1: I think that coaching staff knows it. They have potentially 933 00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 1: the Heisman Trophy winner at quarterback. If I tell you it, 934 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:04,600 Speaker 1: in LSU football is going to have a Heisman Trophy 935 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 1: caliber quarterback. You think national championship, You certainly think SEC 936 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: championship because you can just never fathom that defense is 937 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,439 Speaker 1: gonna be what does LSUN. There's too much defensive line 938 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 1: and dB talent in that state and around the Southeast 939 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 1: and East Texas where they recruit, and yet here we are, 940 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 1: we're watching them give up point totals like they have 941 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,240 Speaker 1: against Ole Miss Forty nine points was not good enough 942 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 1: that day. It's crazy. Like they go into Tuscaloosa, they 943 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: play Alabama really hard, it's not enough. And they played 944 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 1: Florida State early in the year, challenged themselves. I got 945 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: no problem with that, but they have to a certain 946 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: extent wasted Jayden Daniels this year, and it's a shame. 947 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: They're not a bad team. I think they're a really 948 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:52,279 Speaker 1: good team, not a great team, because I told you 949 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,360 Speaker 1: guys in August, I don't think their defensive staff is 950 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 1: good enough. And that was that was feedback given to 951 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 1: me by the people who do this sort of thing 952 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:03,279 Speaker 1: for a living, and I think it was validated. And 953 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 1: I think Brian Kelly's got some decisions to make the 954 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:08,319 Speaker 1: moment the season's over, I'm going to go to another 955 00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: team that still has a really good record. I'm disappointed 956 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: in Penn State. Penn State's eight and two. Penn State 957 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,959 Speaker 1: will be favored the rest of the way. They quote 958 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,359 Speaker 1: unquote should finish the season ten and two. That's a 959 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: really good number. It sounds crazy to be disappointed in 960 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 1: a double digit win season, but I think we all 961 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:31,600 Speaker 1: get it. Think James Franklin gets it. Their expectation this year, 962 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: their standard this year was not let's just win the 963 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:39,240 Speaker 1: games were favored in. They needed to clip either Ohio 964 00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 1: State or Michigan. I know that's a tall task. They 965 00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 1: felt they were built for it. They were wrong, and 966 00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,839 Speaker 1: they've already made changes. The offensive coordinators out too little, 967 00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: too late. I'm not suggesting they should have fired him 968 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 1: earlier in the year, but you get what I mean. 969 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,760 Speaker 1: It's as much as I say LSU may have wasted 970 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:59,280 Speaker 1: Jayden Daniels, look at the defense that to a certain 971 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: extent has been wasted here because as it turns out, 972 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,040 Speaker 1: you will not have accomplished anything more this year than 973 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,760 Speaker 1: you have in years prior. And it's a shame because 974 00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,839 Speaker 1: that's a very, very dominant unit they have up there. 975 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,359 Speaker 1: It's a high standard. I know that. I don't look 976 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 1: at very many teams going ten and two saying you 977 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 1: disappointed me this year. But that's how high the standard 978 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 1: was at Penn State this year. And if I was 979 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: a fan, I wouldn't want it any other way. I 980 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: want a highest standard. I want ten and two to 981 00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: be disappointing. That's like that Clemson thing that Dabo's dealing 982 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 1: with right now. That's how you know you've won a 983 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 1: whole lot when they're disappointed at ten and two. Now, 984 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 1: it's a fine line you got to walk. But that's 985 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 1: why you paid a lot of money to be able 986 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 1: to walk that line a little more comfortably. Speaking of Clemson, 987 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 1: they're six and four. How can I not be disappointed 988 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,840 Speaker 1: in that? They got North Carolina and South Carolina left. 989 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 1: They'll be favored in both games, so maybe we're looking 990 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 1: at eight and four. But eight and four, I mean, 991 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 1: imagine that's jarring if you say that in the preseason. 992 00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 1: They're favored to win the ACC right there, you know, 993 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 1: neck and neck with Florida State. Florida State's favorite to 994 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 1: go undefeated at this point Clemson is that they're six 995 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 1: and four. And here was the disappointing part. It was 996 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:12,200 Speaker 1: over before October and it rhymes, and yet it's not fun. 997 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 1: They lost to Duke by three touchdowns to start the season, 998 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 1: and then Florida State came in there and went to 999 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:21,800 Speaker 1: overtime with them, played a classic game, one of the 1000 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 1: best games of the year. But they lose that thing 1001 00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: and that's it. Two conference losses in September and they 1002 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 1: were just out so early. And since then, you know, 1003 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:33,799 Speaker 1: they came out of the bye week, they lost back 1004 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 1: to back games to Miami and North Carolina State. It 1005 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 1: just didn't click this year. Not a bad team, it's 1006 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,319 Speaker 1: just that's what they are. They're a decent to good 1007 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,399 Speaker 1: team this year. And that's a little jarring, knowing what 1008 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: that orange and white Tiger paus come to represent. Little jaring. 1009 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:51,879 Speaker 1: So it's a little disappointing, and I'll stay in that state. 1010 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 1: South Carolina pretty disappointing to me this year too. Four 1011 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 1: and six Kentucky and Clemson. Under the games they have left, 1012 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,280 Speaker 1: they got to win both of them to be Bowl eligible. 1013 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,400 Speaker 1: There were just too many holes across the entire team 1014 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,759 Speaker 1: this year. I don't zoom in on any one thing 1015 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:08,839 Speaker 1: with South Carolina, which is kind of the problem makes 1016 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 1: it a little bit more difficult to address. At the 1017 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:15,319 Speaker 1: same time, though I have been pretty steadfast in my 1018 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:18,360 Speaker 1: belief that Shane Beemer generally has the program moving in 1019 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,760 Speaker 1: the right direction. I just don't believe progress is always linear, 1020 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 1: and there is a large amount of variance at a 1021 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: place like South Carolina, where number one, you play a 1022 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:31,799 Speaker 1: tough schedule every year, and number two, because you are 1023 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:35,520 Speaker 1: not at this point a top ten recruiter, yet you 1024 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: don't afford yourself the ability to play your B minus 1025 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 1: game and win very often. You just don't. You cannot 1026 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 1: do that, and that's why they're four and six right now. 1027 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 1: And with Spencer Rattler Road versus Home, that's been an 1028 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,080 Speaker 1: issue a couple of years now, So I don't think 1029 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 1: it's it's something that can't get fixed, but it is disappointing. 1030 00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,759 Speaker 1: It's been a down year for football period in the 1031 00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 1: state of South Carolina. But we all know two games 1032 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 1: left for most of these teams, and wild stuff always 1033 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:10,440 Speaker 1: happens this time of year. November. It's a very long 1034 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,840 Speaker 1: month in college football. We're proud to be partnering with 1035 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:17,719 Speaker 1: FanDuel and fanduels proud to offer you the opportunity to 1036 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 1: financially benefit off of any of these games.

That's a nice little it's 1043 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 1: nice little start. It's a nice little takeoff point for you. 1044 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:44,879 Speaker 1: Be very responsible with this. Don't dig yourself in any hole. 1045 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 1: Do not dip into the Christmas fund, and even at 1046 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 1: the expense of the FanDuel folks slapping me on the 1047 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 1: wrist here, be very very careful with this.

It's fun. It's a lot 1052 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 1: more fun than go in and paying fifteen dollars for 1053 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 1: a movie ticket and popcorn, at least that's my opinion. 1054 00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 1: And so have a different way to enjoy your Saturdays. 1055 00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,320 Speaker 1: You can look in the description right now by the 1056 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 1: way for the rules on this free deal, and you 1057 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:21,880 Speaker 1: can see everything you need to know right below the 1058 00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 1: YouTube show right now, the live show in the description. 1059 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 1: So if you need what I just said repeated, go 1060 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: check that out.
