1
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 1: You know.

2
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 2: I'm not an engineer. I've never promised to you guys,

3
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 2: I'm an engineer. But I will tell you one thing.

4
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 2: If the Hoover dam is nearly as leaky as the

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,319
Speaker 2: NC double A is when it comes to matters of

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: Michigan investigations, then several towns are screwed downstream. Lake Kick

7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 2: is live. Finally, little delay in the live stream tonight.

8
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: If you're watching the replayer listening on pod tomorrow, disregard

9
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: all that. Just pretend like we got it off without

10
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 2: a hitch. But we are high atop a star study

11
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 2: downtown Nashville, Tennessee Recruiting and Personnel symposium in town tomorrow.

12
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: Are going to be speaking at that event. Don't bother.

13
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: It's close to the public, but it will be fun.

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 2: And we've got right here. Listen to this sound smack

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: dab in our lap. We got new NC DOUBLEA Michigan

16
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 2: rumors and details and do I paper pop it because

17
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: half of yout that investigation was even going on. But nevertheless,

18
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: we got new information today. I've got several things to

19
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 2: talk to you about on that front that I doubt

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 2: you'll hear anywhere else. Let me just put it that way.

21
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: We've been well ahead of this. We will continue to

22
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 2: be well ahead of it. So you're not wasting your

23
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 2: time watching this show. I got fall camp, whispers, Intel,

24
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: we got scooped from coast to coast. Got a lot

25
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 2: of things that we're starting to hear now. Granted, a

26
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 2: lot of programs, a lot of teams are just now

27
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: putting the pads on this week. It's that time of year.

28
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 2: It's that time of year. I got record predictions tonight

29
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 2: for Clemson and Tennessee. I got some schedule stuff, best

30
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 2: offense in the country, who's going to be this year?

31
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: Just call your shot right now, got some bold predictions,

32
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 2: got all of the things that we normally do this

33
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 2: time of year. They're watching us in Barryville, Virginia, Montgomery, Alabama, Sugarland, Texas, Athens, Ohio.

34
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: Thank you guys so much.

35
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: I know some of you just stuck with us through

36
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: a little live delay and your loyalty is appreciated.

37
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: Tuesday show this week. So here's what's happening.

38
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 2: I gotta be on the road later this week, so

39
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: we will have a Tuesday night show instead of a

40
00:01:59,200 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: Thursday night show.

41
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: The Late Kick Extra podcast.

42
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: I'll give you Thursday or Friday somewhere in that timeframe.

43
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 2: It's podcast only, so make sure you subscribe there. At

44
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 2: Lake Kickjosh on the socials, make sure you're following there

45
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 2: because we had rave reviews from the way we did

46
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 2: the Sunday show. I did live chat on the end

47
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 2: of the Sunday Night Show and dare I say it

48
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 2: may become a staple around here. And dare dare I say,

49
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: we may not just do it on the show. We

50
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: may just go full Friday night lines mode, but more

51
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 2: frequently than just on Friday night.

52
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: So at Lake Kickjosh, make sure you're following. All right, big.

53
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 2: Report, big report here as we dive into August earlier today.

54
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 2: I can't say I expected this today, but we got it.

55
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: So Dan Murphy and Pete fammel Over at ESPN released

56
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: a very eye opening I guess it's the best way

57
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: to put it, report on ESPN dot com about the

58
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 2: latest with the Michigan NCAA investigation in the science stealing

59
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: so quickly because I know a lot of you have

60
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 2: been at church, living your lives and getting been paying

61
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 2: attention and UPDATEESPN dot com every hour. What we have

62
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: here is they have gotten their hands on a draft

63
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 2: of a notice of allegations that is going to be

64
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 2: sent over to Michigan.

65
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: A draft. They didn't even leak the actual thing, a draft.

66
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 2: So more on that in a second. It was specified

67
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 2: in this report. This could change, as drafts often do.

68
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,119
Speaker 2: It could change. Sharon Moore could be in the crosshairs here,

69
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: could be suspended, could get himself a show cause. That's

70
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 2: the new head coach by the way, at Michigan because

71
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 2: a lot of the guys who are highlighted in this thing,

72
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh and the like, they're off to coach the

73
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 2: Chargers now. And the NCAA doesn't have much overside over

74
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: college athletics.

75
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: They have zero overside over the NFL.

76
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 2: There are some deleted texts that Sharon Moore deleted texts.

77
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: There are some deleted texts that Sharon Moore is accused

78
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 2: of having with Connor Stallions that were recovered and then

79
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 2: turned over, and so all of that is detailed in

80
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 2: the report.

81
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: You can go read that if you want to.

82
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: Right now, I want you to listen to this line,

83
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 2: and then I'm gonna take you down a few roads.

84
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna be taking down many other places.

85
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 2: The school, the University of Michigan, is facing a level

86
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: one charge for quote, a pattern of non compliance unquote. Okay,

87
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: so hey, I watched Pony Excess just like the rest

88
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: of you. It's my favorite thirty for thirty as well.

89
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 2: That's Pony Excess language. That's SMU in the eighties language.

90
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 2: Let me spoil the ending for you. Nothing like that's

91
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: about to happen to Michigan. So stop. I'm looking at

92
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: the live chat. Go ahead and stop if you're going

93
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 2: to start that. However, this is the way you talk,

94
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 2: and these are the sorts of things you leak if

95
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 2: you mean business. Now, there are people around Michigan who

96
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: are chuckling at this. There are people around Michigan who

97
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 2: are steadfast that not much is gonna come of this.

98
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: Their best guess would be, hey, maybe Sharon sees a

99
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 2: game suspension, and you know, maybe we have to probation here,

100
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 2: or maybe we have to find ourselves there. But they

101
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: really don't think much is going to come from this.

102
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 2: There are people on the other ends, predictably in Columbus, Ohio,

103
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 2: or State College Pennsylvania, East Lansing. You know, he heard

104
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: some drum beat from around there today that this is

105
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 2: going to be very serious. Let me just promise you

106
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 2: one thing. You haven't been wasting your time here. Colin

107
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: threw up to tweet, in fact, because I had to

108
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 2: remind some folks of this today. On November one, twenty

109
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: twenty three, I got my hands on some footage. Don't

110
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: worry about where I got it from, but I shared

111
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 2: it with you. Half of you thought I was joking

112
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 2: because of the phrasing I used on Twitter. But you're

113
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 2: looking at it, and if you can't see, if you're

114
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 2: listening on podcasts, I said, Peyt State Investigates, and I

115
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 2: trademarked that because it's a half decent name for a

116
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: search firm. Peate State Investigates has acquired the following video

117
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 2: Wait for the Blue Light and it's Connor Stallions. It's

118
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 2: it's the former Michigan assistant Connor Stallions. But he's not

119
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: wearing a Michigan hat. He's wearing a Central Michigan hat.

120
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 2: He ain't on the Michigan sideline. He's on the Central

121
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 2: Michigan sideline. And you know what, he's not supposed to

122
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 2: be there. And what we saw was we saw a

123
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: pair of sunglasses. Even though it was a night kickoff

124
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: and we saw a little blue light on those sunglasses.

125
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 2: Those are recording Those are recording video. Those glasses were

126
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 2: recording video. I told you this November first, because we

127
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 2: had the footage here. November first, we acquired it. Petate

128
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 2: State Investigates acquired it. We got called liars. Hey, guess

129
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: what popped up in this report today from Pete family

130
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 2: and Dan Murphy some I don't know. Nine months later,

131
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 2: the draft also states the NCAA has gathered evidence that

132
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 2: shows Stallions was on the sideline at Michigan State's season

133
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,679
Speaker 2: opening game against Central Michigan. Stallions was wearing a bench pass,

134
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 2: Central Michigan coaching gear and a disguise, according to the draft,

135
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 2: which states that Stallion's conduct quote seriously undermined or threatened

136
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 2: the integrity of the NCAA collegiate model. The draft does

137
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: not say how Stallions obtained a bench pass for the

138
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 2: Chippewa sidelines. Now, I'll tell you even I don't know

139
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 2: how he got on the sideline. I just know that

140
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: he was on the sideline, and we've noticed since last November.

141
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 2: So congrats to investigators for catching up. There was that

142
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 2: the only time, that the only time he pulled that off.

143
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 2: It's one of the questions I have because I've heard

144
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: rumors to the contrary, but I don't have evidence of it.

145
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: If I did, i'd share it on the show. I

146
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: had evidence of that.

147
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: That's why I shared it with you in November next

148
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 2: This timing is very suspicious.

149
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 1: The leak is very suspicious. Make no mistake.

150
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: Whether you think Connor Stallions and Michigan are gonna have

151
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 2: the hammer dropped on him, or one or the other will,

152
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 2: or none of them will and it's not a big deal,

153
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 2: or maybe you think this is the biggest scandal in

154
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: your lifetime. The NCAA has a lot of motivation for

155
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: leaking this to who.

156
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: They leak it to.

157
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 2: When they leak it, it's one hundred percent tied to

158
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 2: that documentary that's about to be released August twenty seventh

159
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 2: on Netflix, I believe is the dates later this month.

160
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 2: You won't have to wait very long, and so I

161
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 2: am going to be guarded with what I say about that.

162
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 2: I will just tell you the NCAA draft here says

163
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 2: that Connor Stallion's quote failed to cooperate with their investigation.

164
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: What does that mean?

165
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 2: What does it mean he failed to cooperate? You know,

166
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it written many places that Stallions was

167
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 2: even interviewed by the NCAA. But he was, but he

168
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 2: was so their claiming they what did they try to

169
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 2: and he wouldn't talk? Is that what they mean by that?

170
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 2: It's very nebulous. Notice, it's very vague. Would he not

171
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 2: talk at all?

172
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 1: Did he talk?

173
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 2: But Stonewall, did he talk a lot? But lie? Were

174
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 2: there things you wanted from him that he wouldn't turn over?

175
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to make a bet with you, guys, I

176
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: will bet you when that documentary comes out there's a

177
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 2: lot more to that statement that meets the eye.

178
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 1: He wouldn't cooperate.

179
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 2: Now, normally, in these sorts of matters, when the NCAA

180
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 2: makes allegations, whether it's in an actual notice or whether

181
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 2: it's eked secondhand to a reporter, when they make allegations

182
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 2: about you, it's tough for you to fight.

183
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: Back, it really is.

184
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 2: When they say you didn't cooperate in your interview with them,

185
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: it's tough to fight back. I wonder if Connor Stallions

186
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 2: will have a way to fight back on that failed

187
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 2: to cooperate. By the way, and these sorts of matters.

188
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 2: Is it's not something that you need to just automatically

189
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 2: bite the hook of. Be careful on this, be very

190
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 2: careful on this, because failed to cooperate could look something

191
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 2: like this. I sit down because I stole a ham

192
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 2: sandwich from the lunch room and they asked me about

193
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 2: the ham sandwich, and I tell them, here are the details,

194
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 2: here's what I did, here's when I did it, and

195
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: they got surveillance camera footage of I mean, it's pretty

196
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 2: clear I stole a ham sandwich. Okay, so it's an

197
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 2: open and shutcase. But then they ask for my cell phone,

198
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 2: then they ask from my email. Then they ask for

199
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 2: my banking information, and I'm like, isn't this about a

200
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 2: ham sandwich? Plus I already told you guys, I just

201
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 2: did it. Why do you need that information? Don't worry

202
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: about that, Josh, just give it to us. Well, no,

203
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 2: I'm not giving it to he's failing to cooperate. He's

204
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 2: a non cooperative witness. Get shame on him. Be careful,

205
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 2: is all I'm saying. Demonizing folks for not cooperating with

206
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 2: the NCAA. Sometimes these people understand that it's a one

207
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 2: way fight. Sometimes. And I'm not sitting here defending Connors Stallions,

208
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 2: trust me, but I'm just saying in a very general sense,

209
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 2: Michigan or Boise State, these folks at headquarters in Indianapolis,

210
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 2: they still think it's nineteen ninety seven, first off, so

211
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 2: they believe that they can wage wars in this manner.

212
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 2: They still believe it's as simple as leaking to a

213
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 2: cooperative reporter. And that's no shade on the reporters. I

214
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 2: do the same thing FAMILYA Murphy did if this got

215
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 2: dropped in my lap. But what I'm telling you is

216
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 2: they think it's as easy as let's leak there and

217
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 2: let's get out in advance of whatever else is gonna

218
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 2: come out, and that's it, and we can control the narrative.

219
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 2: No you can't. You suck at this. The NCUBA is

220
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,680
Speaker 2: terrible at this. I'll bet you something else, bet number

221
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 2: two of this segment. I got a really good feeling.

222
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 2: These aren't not lines locks, but I got a really

223
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 2: good feeling that we're going to be vindicated on this.

224
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: What you say, if I told you the nc.

225
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: DOUBLEA may have a whole lot more egg on their

226
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 2: faces before this is all said and done than the

227
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 2: University of Michigan. Does what say you to that? So

228
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 2: that's two bets if anyone wants to take me up

229
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 2: on those failed to cooperate, You're careful how you read that?

230
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: Does anyone by the way, just a side note here,

231
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 2: it has nothing to do with the investigation itself. It

232
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 2: strikes me how no one at NCUBA headquarters in Indianapolis

233
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 2: seems particularly concerned that details about one investigation into one

234
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: university keep leaking at a very disproportionate ratio to investigations

235
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:45,599
Speaker 2: in other universities.

236
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 1: Does anyone find that out? Does anyone care?

237
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 2: Does anyone at nc DOUBLEA headquarters care that the details

238
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 2: of your investigations keep becoming compromised and thrown out into

239
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: the public arena? Or are you complicit in that happening?

240
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 2: And if you are, you'd never admit it to me.

241
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 2: But I have to baselessly then speculate as to why

242
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 2: you may be okay with that. Let's get some things

243
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 2: straight here. There's a big difference switching gears entirely. There's

244
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: a big difference in Connor Stallion's acted alone, which I'm

245
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 2: pretty sure he did, versus nobody knew.

246
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: Of course, you guys knew.

247
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 2: If you're asking me to believe Connor Stallion's acted alone,

248
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 2: I'm cool with that rogue behavior.

249
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: I'm fine with it.

250
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 2: And even if that's not true, you'll be able to

251
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: pass that office true. And for the record, I do

252
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 2: believe it's true. But if you're asking me to believe

253
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 2: no one else knew there, you're asking me to believe

254
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 2: you're idiots. And the folks at Michigan are not idiots.

255
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,479
Speaker 2: So many of those folks had at least some understanding

256
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 2: of what was going on there, And anyone who suggests

257
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: otherwise is expecting me to be stupid enough to believe that.

258
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: I'm not stupid enough to believe that. I've got no

259
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 2: source whatsoever. Nor do I have any idea on how

260
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 2: severe punishments could be on this, and I wish I knew.

261
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 2: I don't know the severity of the punishment, though, is

262
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: directly tied to how motivated the NCAA seems to be

263
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 2: to nail something to you. They seem very motivated. Here now,

264
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 2: on the other side of this fence, you have a

265
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 2: university that is ready, willing, able and motivated on their

266
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 2: own to fully defend themselves.

267
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: Again.

268
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 2: They may think it's nineteen ninety seven in Indianapolis. It

269
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 2: is not nineteen ninety seven anymore in twenty twenty four.

270
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: The way this gets handled is university has mega law

271
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 2: firm on retainer and they swing much bigger hammers than

272
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 2: you do at NCAA headquarters. And that's why you're fighting

273
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 2: wars on ten fronts, and you're getting dominated on all

274
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 2: ten fronts in the courtroom because yours aren't as good

275
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: as theirs. That's probably how this plays out as well.

276
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 2: Does it change anything? Is really what I keep coming

277
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 2: back to. I'm not a lawyer. I'm not trying to

278
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 2: be one. What I am as a fan of college football.

279
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 2: I cover this sport for a living. I've watched this

280
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 2: sport as a passion since I was able to change

281
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 2: channels on a television. I've seen investigations come and go before.

282
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 2: I've seen wins vacated before. I've seen coaches punished before.

283
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 2: I've seen scholarships stripped before. And sometimes I look at

284
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: it and it changes my perception of a team. Other

285
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 2: times I look at it and I laugh. All I

286
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: can tell you is how I feel about Michigan from

287
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 2: last year. You can feel however you want to. I

288
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: know we're going to have a lot of disagreement on this.

289
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 2: There's a world where Michigan does stuff last year that

290
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: in retrospect taints my opinion of the wins they had.

291
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 2: So far, nothing's been put in front of me that

292
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: does that. I don't doubt they did stuff that was underhanded.

293
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 2: I don't doubt that what Connor Stallions did was illegal.

294
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 2: I don't doubt any of that. I think it was.

295
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: I think they'll be punished to some degree for it.

296
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 2: I don't even care if the NCAA comes out and says, hey,

297
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: we're you of that win. What did I tell you?

298
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: I told you if I was a Michigan fan, I

299
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 2: wouldn't care. I wouldn't care because I saw it happen.

300
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 2: I saw the wins. I was there in the Rose

301
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 2: Bowl in overtime when we beat Alabama. I was there

302
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 2: in Houston in the National Championship. And oh, by the way,

303
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 2: I may have even been there when we beat Ohio State.

304
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: For the third straight year.

305
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: So I wouldn't care if I'm a Michigan fan because

306
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 2: the NCAA can't vacate memories. And secondly, and I'm not

307
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 2: a Michigan fan, but I was at all those games too.

308
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 2: I stood on the sideline for every one of the

309
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 2: games I just listed. I don't think Connor Stallions had

310
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: anything to do with Michigan being able to put together

311
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 2: that fourth quarter drive against Ohio State. I don't. I

312
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 2: don't believe Connor Stallions had anything to do with Michigan

313
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 2: coming from behind with about five and changed left and

314
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 2: then trailing Alabama didn't getting it done with a stop

315
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 2: in overtime. I don't think Connor Stallions had anything to

316
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 2: do with that. I don't think he had anything to

317
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 2: do with them largely owning Washington in the National Title game.

318
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: I just think they were the better team. I think

319
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 1: they found a way.

320
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 2: I think a lot of guys had their backs against

321
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 2: the wall and they executed. And that's how I'll remember it.

322
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 2: If you remember it differently, you go ahead and remember

323
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 2: it differently. I just say my strategy on this is

324
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 2: going to be I'm gonna wait a little bit longer, because,

325
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 2: as I've told you for a while now, I've told

326
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 2: you I'm totally open to evidence being tossed out here

327
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 2: that's not public yet that could change my mind. Still

328
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 2: open to that. I just told you how I feel

329
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 2: right now. If there's evidence that I don't know about

330
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 2: that hasn't been presented publicly yet, that's thrown out there

331
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 2: that I look at and say, ooh, now that's different

332
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 2: than what I've seen so far, I may look back

333
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 2: and say, yeah, I acknowledge none of that. That entire

334
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: season's tainted for me. Now tear down the banner and

335
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 2: I'm tearing it down in my memory. Well, I'm not

336
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 2: doing that right now. That's not how I feel about it. However,

337
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 2: I don't have to feel any kind of way for

338
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: Michigan to get hit fairly hard on this. And all

339
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: I'm going to say is, when your school not a coach,

340
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 2: you got several coaches facing individual level one violations. Very

341
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 2: programmed is facing a level one violation, a pattern of

342
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 2: non compliance. The NCUBA as inept as they may be,

343
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 2: as incapable of taking a leak without getting in the

344
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 2: front of their pants wet as they may be from

345
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: time to time, they do not throw around phrasing accidentally,

346
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 2: So they're throwing that out there for a reason. A

347
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 2: pattern of non compliance as a program means, if they're

348
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 2: throwing that at you, they intend on its sticking and

349
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: they intend on hammering you to some degree. Now here's

350
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 2: the other thing I'm gonna ask, what's the big ten

351
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: league office going to do about this? I have and

352
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 2: some of you, yeah, probably actually don't know. Ninety nine

353
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 2: percent of this is handled behind the scenes. Let me

354
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 2: just let me assure you there have been some borderline

355
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 2: wars fought behind the scenes, not between universities in the

356
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 2: NC DOUBLEA in the past, specifically in my neck of

357
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 2: the woods in the South, it's the league office in

358
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 2: the NCUBA. Because if if you think these programs are

359
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 2: worth what they're worth on a day in, day out

360
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: standpoint from a television media rights perspective, and if you

361
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: think those organizations who give the NC DOUBLEA power okay,

362
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 2: the conferences give the NC DOUBLEA the power it has,

363
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 2: if you think they're actually going to let that group

364
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 2: stumble into ann Arbor, Michigan and strip away a lot

365
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 2: of the value that Michigan delivers on Saturday, I think

366
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 2: you're crazy. I could be wrong, but I think you're

367
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: crazy if you believe that's going to happen. Having said

368
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 2: that that serious language. So I don't know what's going

369
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: to happen.

370
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: I do not know.

371
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 2: I would encourage you circle that date August twenty seventh.

372
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 2: Netflix is not paying me to promote this, but I'm

373
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 2: very much looking forward to it. Next up football around

374
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 2: the corner. Thank you guys for watching. By the way,

375
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 2: We've had a late start tonight and still got a really,

376
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 2: really sizeable crowd here. GP said, the mic is peaking

377
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: too much. It's just because I was yelling a lot

378
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 2: because I was animated in the opening segment. So don't

379
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: blame the Mike, Blame me or some guy named Mike

380
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 2: camp whispers and Intel my favorite time of year. What

381
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 2: are we hearing? We call in all our favors. We

382
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: get as much scoop and Intel as we possibly can.

383
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: Let me take it at LSU. Good buzz around Kyron

384
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: Lacey right now. Now, he's not an unknown commodity. He

385
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 2: had thirty catches, over five hundred and fifty yards, seven

386
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 2: touchdowns last year. But when you got Elik Neighbors Brian

387
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 2: Thomas exiting to the NFL, when you're replacing over twenty

388
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 2: seven hundred receiving yards and thirty one touchdowns last year,

389
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,959
Speaker 2: you need studs. Kyron Lacy can be that six two

390
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 2: about twot fifteen. He's had albeit a short camp so far,

391
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 2: he's had a really good camp.

392
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:44,719
Speaker 1: I think he's locked in.

393
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: The dbs will be the position to focus on this

394
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 2: week because this week's when they put on pads. They've

395
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 2: had some interesting rotations. Looking at Sage Ryan, for example,

396
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 2: running at the corner position, not where I thought i'd

397
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 2: see him running at LSU a couple of years go

398
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 2: personally when he committed. So the dB rotations, that's the focus.

399
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 2: The other focus for me is at the running back spot.

400
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 2: They feel quietly confident at LSU about running back now.

401
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 2: They've got monsters on their offensive line. So I want

402
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 2: you to just imagine with me Week one against USC.

403
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 2: They're playing in Vegas. It's a Sunday night game. Imagine

404
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 2: the LSU running back corps is significantly more explosive and

405
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 2: dependable than it has been. Their offensive lines a bunch

406
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 2: of maulers. It is a matchup nightmare for USC to

407
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 2: have that defensive front leaned on if they're secondary. The

408
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: reason I keep mentioning dB is because USC shot in

409
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 2: that is just a torch LSU secondary if they're slightly

410
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 2: less torchable than they were a year ago. You got

411
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 2: a possible matchup advantage that goes to a significant matchup

412
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 2: advantage for LSU at Miami. Sam Brown's a transfer wide

413
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: receiver there. He is going to be very good. Cam

414
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 2: Ward transfer quarterback. Everyone's talking about him, and they should be.

415
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 2: Damian Martinez the transfer running back. Everyone's been talking about

416
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 2: him from Oregon State.

417
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: They should be.

418
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 2: Sam Brown is a transfer that I've probably had more

419
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: texts about through the first few days of camp than

420
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: any of them except cam Ward, and that's cause he's

421
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 2: the quarterback. Tyler Baron is an edge player who they

422
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: are going to count on and who I think will

423
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 2: deliver this year. And Simeon Barrow the defensive tackle. They

424
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 2: got a lot of hope and confidence in him as well.

425
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 2: The reason I'm mentioning those names is because they're a

426
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 2: bunch of transfers.

427
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 1: So make no mistake.

428
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 2: Now, the nucleus there is the freshman in sophomore classes, respectively,

429
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: that Christabaul and his staff have recruited. But I think

430
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 2: they may have killed it in the transfer portal, and

431
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 2: if they did, they can win the ACC If they

432
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 2: did that, they can be a bona fide playoff contender.

433
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 2: If they didn't, then well, I don't need to tell

434
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 2: you what happens if they didn't. If they did, you're

435
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 2: going glass half full here. Big things can happen. Sam

436
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 2: Brown transfer receiver, Keep an eye on him. Alabama. They

437
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 2: are very green in the secondary. Alabama lost a ton

438
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 2: of proven commodities in their secondary. When I was there

439
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 2: in the spring, sat down with some staffers. Bunch of

440
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 2: them mentioned a kid by the name of Zabian Brown.

441
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 2: Zabian Brown's a true freshman corner, five star corner out

442
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 2: of California. He will play this year. He'll be an

443
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 2: impact player for them this year. It is not an

444
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 2: ideal situation to have to be playing true freshman anywhere,

445
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 2: but especially in the secondary. However, at the bigger programs,

446
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 2: they do get freak shows in there every now and then.

447
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 2: They had one named Caleb downs there last year for example.

448
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 2: Not to do the comparative analysis thing, but every now

449
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 2: and then your Bama's and Georgia's and whatnot, they get

450
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 2: true freshman in there where you watch them and you say,

451
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 2: that's not a true freshman. Surely that's not a true freshman.

452
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 2: Zabian Brown is one of those guys. Good weight room

453
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 2: due too, but really really good football player. So he's

454
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 2: shown out so far. And then Ryan Williams, the five

455
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 2: star receiver, got a bunch of eyes on him. Smaller

456
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 2: in body type, six foot boy, one hundred and sixty five,

457
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter any DeVante Smith came in there one time,

458
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 2: probably a little bit smaller than that and left with

459
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 2: a heisman. So that's okay. But what's happening here is

460
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 2: you remember the names, Oh, I don't know, Kendrick Law,

461
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 2: Kobe Prentiss.

462
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 1: Just random four star receivers.

463
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 2: That are like around every corner at Alabama, and you

464
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 2: forget about him from time to time. A couple of

465
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: those guys are gonna pop just because of the offense

466
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 2: they're in and because I think they have enough confidence

467
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 2: in the pass catchers they have. It's not like they're

468
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 2: trying to baptize Ryan Williams by fire. Ultimately, he probably

469
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 2: has more raw talent than anyone in that room. It's

470
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 2: a very special player. He skipped a grade. He's supposed

471
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 2: to be a senior in high school this year, too,

472
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 2: so to be asking in real life a kid who

473
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 2: should be getting ready for his senior year to be

474
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 2: a staple in SEC play is a lot. He'll be

475
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 2: able to play this year, but they can ease him

476
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 2: in because of the comp I think they have elksewhere

477
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 2: in that pass catching room. So that's how they feel.

478
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 2: Is that what they really have? That's the part be

479
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,320
Speaker 2: to all this. Penn State not so good news this week,

480
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 2: at least on the depth front. So Penn State lost

481
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 2: Jamil Lyons and Kaveon Keys, an edge guy and a linebacker.

482
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 2: They had to dismiss them from the team. It's okay

483
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 2: if the rest of their guys remain healthy. What we

484
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 2: start to watch for in fall camp Florida. I'm going

485
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 2: to talk about them in a second. You get guys

486
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,479
Speaker 2: dinged up, and in this case, you have guys who

487
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 2: aren't injured, but they're dismissed for the season for off

488
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 2: field related issues. And you go to your preview magazine

489
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 2: or you go to your depth chart and you say, oh,

490
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 2: that's okay, We've still got Yeah, but what you did

491
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 2: do is you erased one line of depth. And it

492
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 2: doesn't really matter against West Virginia in week one, but

493
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,120
Speaker 2: it may very well matter in week ten or week eleven,

494
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 2: because no one escapes a season unscathed from injury. So

495
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, I'm looking across the two deep

496
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:04,439
Speaker 2: there defensive line, especially edge and linebacker, like Tony Rojas

497
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,160
Speaker 2: as a kid we think will be a big time

498
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 2: player for them.

499
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: This year.

500
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 2: We've had guys moving positions, stay healthy and you're okay,

501
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,959
Speaker 2: But you got two guys there that were very, very

502
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,919
Speaker 2: important depth providers that all of a sudden, like Ohio

503
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 2: State comes there in the middle of the season, Well,

504
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 2: what if someone else has gotten banged up and all

505
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 2: of a sudden, you're trying to stop You're trying to

506
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: stop those those one two's at running back for them,

507
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 2: and you're trying to also, you know, contain, you're trying

508
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 2: to set the edge. But you've also got Jeremiah Smith,

509
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 2: and you've got and Mecca Agbuka.

510
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 1: Could get hard.

511
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:36,719
Speaker 2: Is the point.

512
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: So watch the depth situation defensively there. Now.

513
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,239
Speaker 2: James Franklin sounds really bullish on Drew Holler in this

514
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 2: new offensive system they're running. It's not me talking. James

515
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 2: Franklin talking sounds really bullish talking about him being able

516
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 2: to do a lot of things you hadn't seen him

517
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 2: do before.

518
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: I hope.

519
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 2: So we'll see at Nebraska again. One week into camp.

520
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,160
Speaker 2: So far, so good on Dylan Royola, quarterback. The one

521
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 2: thing that we keep getting mentioned to us with these

522
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 2: true freshmen who are going to start where that's the case,

523
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 2: the comms and the helmets this year will have a

524
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 2: disproportionately positive impact, or so it's thought on young guys

525
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 2: starting like an edge that a young guy has now

526
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 2: with the helmet communication system that they would not have

527
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 2: previously had.

528
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: Now.

529
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 2: The counter to that is, I've had some other coaches

530
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: tell me yet everyone thinks that's an edge. In reality,

531
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 2: what's going to happen is a lot of coordinators are

532
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 2: just going to have their quarterbacks head swimming and then

533
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 2: it gets cut off fifteen seconds prior to snap, and

534
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 2: then coverages adjust and fronts move around, and all of

535
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 2: a sudden, you got a guy who is completely discombobulated

536
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,199
Speaker 2: and it actually works detrimentally to a young guy. Don't know,

537
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,199
Speaker 2: because we haven't seen this, We haven't seen anyone go

538
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,120
Speaker 2: through this. Jamal Banks is that wife receiver one there?

539
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 2: Looks like it have to transfer from Wake Forest. You know,

540
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 2: we think we can count defense at Nebraska. Offense has

541
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 2: got to get a lot better. They've got some depth

542
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 2: upfront defensively, by the way, but Keana Davis is a

543
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 2: true freshman defensive end there six five, two fifty five

544
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 2: to sixty. Just remember that name. I think we'll be

545
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 2: calling that name before too much longer. And at Florida,

546
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 2: not great news this week. Montreal Johnson was running back

547
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 2: one there, not done for the season, but he went

548
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 2: down and had to have a minor knee procedure. He's

549
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 2: going to be out a few weeks, probably misses the

550
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 2: start of the season, at least that's the word.

551
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: Now.

552
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 2: They didn't panic when they lost Trevor etm the running

553
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 2: back that went to Georgia, which I think should be illegal.

554
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 2: Transferring to a rival should be illegal. When I'm college

555
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,479
Speaker 2: football comissioner, it will be, but right now I'm not,

556
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 2: and it's not.

557
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:45,360
Speaker 1: But he went to Georgia.

558
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 2: Now they didn't panic, and they didn't panic because they

559
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 2: got pretty good running back depth. Now it gets tested

560
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 2: treyon Webb, Jacobe Jackson.

561
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: It's the same thing with Penn State.

562
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 2: Like my Florida folks said, oh, it's okay, it's okay,

563
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 2: Like we want to getson.

564
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: Back, will get him back, but we'll be okay.

565
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 2: I'm not saying you don't have other players, but it

566
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,959
Speaker 2: means something when the one you were gonna start all

567
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 2: of a sudden in there anymore. Now they got dependable backs.

568
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 2: They got dependable backups. But keep an eye on this stuff.

569
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 2: There's also no guarantee that's the last time the injury

570
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: bug bites you. By the way, some of you hadn't

571
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,640
Speaker 2: even gotten into a full week of padded practice Florida included,

572
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 2: So keep an eye on that. Also, a lot of

573
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 2: our team sites like Swamp twenty four to seven, Lions

574
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 2: twenty four to seven, Bama twenty four seven, Cody Goodwin

575
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 2: giving us a lot of good intel all of the

576
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 2: team sites right now, I think through tomorrow, right Jesse

577
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 2: through Monday, you can get sixty percent off when you

578
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 2: sign up twenty four seven sports dot com, So I

579
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 2: think they should charge more for it personally, but I

580
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 2: don't run twenty four seven sports dot com. But you

581
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 2: can get sixty percent off an already pretty low rate

582
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 2: if you sign up through tomorrow. And the reason I

583
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 2: mentioned that is cause a lot of that will be

584
00:28:55,280 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 2: found on those various team sites, Academy Sports and Outdoors.

585
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 2: They're just a special place, like they're running a special forever.

00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 2: you my full predictions. A lot of you you don't

00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 2: going on the record. But the beauty in the segment

610
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 2: that I'm about to do is in the comments below it.

611
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 2: You give me your predictions, and so sure, I'm gonna

612
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 2: whiff on some of these and it's gonna be bad.

613
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: It's not fun, but I'm gonna nail some of them,

614
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,440

617
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: tense of screenshot, as we have established, is screenshot, and

618
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 2: don't let anyone in your schools tell you otherwise.

619
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: So here we go.

620
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 2: Texas predictions. It's that time. Let's just predict the Texas

621
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 2: season this year. Here's what you need to know. The

622
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 2: over underwind totals ten and a half. That's very lofty.

623
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 2: They've got the second best odds to win the SEC.

624
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 2: They've got the fourth best odds to win the whole

625
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 2: thing this year. So let me tell you some things

626
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 2: I think I know about Texas. I think I know

627
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 2: quinn Ewers should be a really big offensive weapon. He's

628
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 2: got skill, he's got the experience, he's playing for the

629
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 2: right coordinator. I consider Steve Sarkis in the coordinator there,

630
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 2: he's the quarterback developer, starts really really good at that.

631
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: So you got a multi year starter there that should

632
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 2: be a weapon. He's among the top five and the

633
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: Heisman odds should absolutely be a weapon. There are some

634
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 2: parts of his game that are still loose that this

635
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 2: year should round into form. Second thing I think I

636
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 2: know about Texas is their pass rush should be very

637
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 2: legit this year.

638
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: Now, we got questions about stopping the run.

639
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 2: I'll get to that in a second, but Trey Moore

640
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 2: was a transfer from UTSA. I believe huge pickup for

641
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 2: them is Anthony Hill's there and so that's a stud,

642
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 2: but you're adding another one potentially in Trey Moore. Pass

643
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 2: rush should be there. Havoc rate should be through the roof,

644
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 2: no excuse for it not to be for Texas. The

645
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 2: third thing I think I know about them is yeah,

646
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 2: they're joined in a tougher conference. They sure are. I

647
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 2: think the Sea have a positive impact on Texas. I

648
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 2: think it'll collectively raise their level of play too. Look

649
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 2: at this lineup of teams Colin showing you right now.

650
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 2: It means something when you go into any given season

651
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 2: and you know you have to be better than Georgia, Alabama, Ole,

652
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 2: miss lsu A, and M Tennessee, Missouri Oklahoma instead of

653
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 2: all due respect TCU, Texas Tech, Kansas, Iowa State, whether

654
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 2: they ever admit it or not, Folks in Austin and

655
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: even folks in Norman New if they take care of

656
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 2: their business, the rest of their former conference shouldn't be

657
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 2: able to touch them. In the SEC, you could take

658
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 2: care of your business and still lose two games.

659
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,680
Speaker 1: Georgia was a really good team last year.

660
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 2: They didn't even make the playoff because they couldn't win

661
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 2: the conference. And so in this league, when you know

662
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 2: you're in this league, it's the whole tightrope walk analogy

663
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: that I've been making to you. If you walk a

664
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 2: tightrope ten feet off the ground, and you walk a

665
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 2: tightrope ten stories off the ground, technically the process is

666
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 2: still the same. However, there's a different level of focus.

667
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 2: There's a different way you wake up that morning, there's

668
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 2: a different way you eat breakfast, and there's a different

669
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 2: way you carry yourself to that ten story tall tightrope walk.

670
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: Then there is the ten.

671
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 2: Foot tall tight rope walk because the latter, you know,

672
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 2: you can fall off of and it may scrape your

673
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,360
Speaker 2: knee up, but it's not that big a problem. I mean,

674
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 2: Mick Foley's falling further than ten feet many a time

675
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 2: in his WWF career back in the day. Ten stories

676
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 2: though your street pizza if you fall. So if you

677
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 2: know the consequences are that, then you tend to mentally

678
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 2: carry yourself a little differently. I was out there this spring.

679
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 2: You could feel it in the building. You could feel

680
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 2: it when you talk to folks, not even just on

681
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: the coaching staff, in the communication department, you can feel it.

682
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: So that's that's a big question.

683
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 2: But think think, I think that's the answer. I think

684
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 2: it'll serve them just as well as them. Moving to

685
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 2: the SEC serves the depth of that conference. Now, ask

686
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 2: for the questions around Texas run defense. Huge question. Run

687
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 2: defense was number three in the country last year. They

688
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 2: will probably not be number three in the country this year.

689
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 2: Sweat and Murphy gone. You can't replace those. Now.

690
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 1: You can pull the billy bean, you know you can.

691
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 2: You can tear the top off a marker and spit

692
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 2: it down the board, and you can say we can

693
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 2: replace them in the aggregate Moneyball reference. They got talented

694
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 2: players there. It's Texas. They're never gonna hurt for talent.

695
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 2: But man, that was big time talent in the middle.

696
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 2: Now here's why that matters. You've got to be able

697
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 2: to control games or else a bunch of games become

698
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 2: one possession crapshoots, and the best ones are built at

699
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. And they can control games. That

700
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 2: doesn't mean they never get beat. That doesn't mean they

701
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 2: never have close games. The control like Michigan last year,

702
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 2: controlled games. They were in one possession games. Most of

703
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 2: their big ones late in the season, obviously, but they

704
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 2: controlled line of scrimmage. They can count on themselves to

705
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 2: do that. If you don't have that, you could still win.

706
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,839
Speaker 2: But boy, there's a lot more variants that gets thrown

707
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:02,720
Speaker 2: in the potential outcome. The second thing that I wonder

708
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 2: is have we fixed the pass defense in Austin. They

709
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 2: were quietly one of the worst in the country last year.

710
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 2: They were one hundred and sixteenth in pass yards per

711
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 2: game allowed last year, just a total invert of what

712
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 2: they were against the run. Washington torched them. This cost

713
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,399
Speaker 2: them a shot at the national title. Washington torched them

714
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 2: in the semi final and it was on display. There

715
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 2: was in the first time Texas folks saw it. But

716
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 2: I think a lot of folks who hadn't watched Texas

717
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 2: much said wow, well, yeah, it's a wow because that

718
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 2: was a ward they couldn't overcome.

719
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,399
Speaker 1: Have they fixed that third thing?

720
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 2: They lost a lot of talented pass catchers, They lost

721
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: their top four, they lost their top five actually pass catchers.

722
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 2: Now they added a lot of good ones too. The

723
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,320
Speaker 2: way I figure it is, even in the best of worlds,

724
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 2: you added all these cats this year. In the best

725
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 2: of worlds, you hope to pull even with what you

726
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: were last year. And if you're beyond what you were

727
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,440
Speaker 2: last year, that's great, but that is really tough to predict.

728
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 2: So Isaiah Bond came over there from Bama. They got

729
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 2: Matthew Golden, Silas Bold and maamriy Nyblack came in there

730
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 2: from Bama as well.

731
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 1: If those guys can equal roughly.

732
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 2: What your production was last year, you ought to be

733
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 2: a national title contender. It's a big if you don't

734
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 2: just snap your fingers and do it. And a lot

735
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 2: of this portal stuff it sounds so good. It is

736
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,280
Speaker 2: so much harder to get sort of across the board

737
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 2: panout on that or validation or verification on that. The

738
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:37,439
Speaker 2: staff breakdowns interesting at Texas. So our internal model has

739
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 2: Texas with the highest offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator special team

740
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 2: combo in the country. We count Steve Sarkesian as the

741
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 2: OC there because Sark calls the place so OC DC

742
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 2: special Teams coordinator. It's the best one two three combo

743
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 2: in the country. They're offensive and defensive support staff we've

744
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 2: got graded significantly lower. So the overall depth of the

745
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: quality there could very well be that this looks different

746
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 2: this time next year because there's none of me thrown

747
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 2: into that model. It's just everyone judged on the same criteria.

748
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 2: And so is there a coaching quality depth situation there?

749
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 2: There may be, there may not be. But at the

750
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 2: front line, they're about as good as it gets in

751
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 2: the country. Sark is an excellent OC grade. He is

752
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 2: still outside the top twenty five as a head coaching

753
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: grade right now for US, and you know that includes Washington,

754
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 2: that includes USC, so he's had a checker at head

755
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 2: coaching career, so that shouldn't be a surprise. Now twenty

756
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 2: twenty three was great for him. You bake in a

757
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 2: few more of those years and quickly he goes from

758
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 2: outside top twenty five to inside top five. So that

759
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 2: kind of stuff can happen. And you know what, if

760
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 2: if Sark really is a new head coach, none of

761
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 2: his past really matters anyway. It doesn't matter if what

762
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 2: he was at Washington, if that's a night and day

763
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 2: difference than what he is right now. But in order

764
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 2: to be safe, when we work these grades, we're working

765
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,720
Speaker 2: your whole career, and then we heavily wait more recent

766
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 2: so we do have some recency bias in there. Schedule

767
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 2: couldn't be much better, all things considered, Texas could not

768
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 2: have asked for a much better introduction into the SEC.

769
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: Now.

770
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 2: They do play four of my top fifteen teams in

771
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 2: the JP Pole, but they also play five of the bottom.

772
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,280
Speaker 1: Six teams in the SEC.

773
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 2: And again, you're not gonna have an easy schedule here.

774
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 2: But that's about as good as you could have hoped for.

775
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 2: They go to Michigan in week two, they start conference

776
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:29,439
Speaker 2: play against Mississippi State.

777
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:31,879
Speaker 1: What's the best case here?

778
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 2: The best case for Texas is twelve and oh, I'll

779
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 2: just go ahead and tell you that they got a

780
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 2: shot to win every game they play. Their toughest game

781
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 2: is against Georgia, that's at home. They got Oklahoma in Dallas,

782
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 2: as they do every year. They got a shot to

783
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 2: go twelve to ZHO. Their worst case is an eight

784
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 2: and four record. I think it's most likely Texas goes

785
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,839
Speaker 2: eleven to one this year. I'm really high on them.

786
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 2: JP Pole has them at number four in the preseason.

787
00:38:55,120 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 2: There is still there's a little more volatility in predicting

788
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 2: Texas then I think it sounds in my voice I

789
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: say eleven and one, it just rolls off the tongue.

790
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 2: Now I said worst case was eight and four two,

791
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 2: and you don't. I'm just telling you don't replace that

792
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 2: much talent out wide seamlessly. You don't just magically upgrade

793
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 2: quality of quarterback by fifteen percent just cause you returned.

794
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,320
Speaker 2: Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. You don't just replace

795
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 2: those kind of guys on the interior of your defensive line.

796
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 2: You don't just go from one sixteenth and pass defense

797
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 2: to top ten. So there are questions here, but it's

798
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 2: questions relative to the rest of the country. So Texas

799
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,720
Speaker 2: has got a workable schedule, and their questions are first

800
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 2: world questions, their first world problems. And so with Texas,

801
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say eleven and one, but there's shakiness in

802
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,439
Speaker 2: my voice. I'm not you know, I'm not falling over

803
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 2: myself to go and bet Max bets on every Texas game.

804
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,320
Speaker 2: The model may, but we know the model's history with Texas.

805
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 2: Let's move on. So you got a lot, a lot

806
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 2: in the show tonight. These shows, man. We went an

807
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 2: hour twenty the other night and we did the live

808
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 2: chat at the end of the show. The live chat

809
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,800
Speaker 2: got great response, great respect if you missed the Sunday

810
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 2: night show. I just basically looked at the live chat

811
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 2: and Kyle, for example, already properly using the past tense

812
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 2: of screenshot in the live chat.

813
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 1: I love it. I appreciate it.

814
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 2: I looked at the live chat the other night after

815
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 2: the show and I said, you know what, let's just talk.

816
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 2: And I sat there and talked, and we covered a

817
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 2: variety of subjects, some football. Regrettably a lot was not football,

818
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 2: but that's okay. It's at the end of the show.

819
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 2: If you don't like it, it's not for you. Tune out

820
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:41,280
Speaker 2: a little little tidbit. We had our best audience retention

821
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 2: ever on Sunday Night Show, like in the history of

822
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 2: us doing this since twenty twenty, we had the best

823
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 2: audience retention ever and then we had a lot of

824
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,839
Speaker 2: comments about the live chat, so we'll probably be doing

825
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 2: more of that. What are the biggest what ifs in

826
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,800
Speaker 2: this sport this year? What if Old Miss One's the SEC.

827
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,120
Speaker 2: That's a really big one. Oh, Josh, can't happen. Well,

828
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 2: it hasn't happened. You're right, you're right. One of Memo's

829
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 2: golden rules don't lose to food, so watch out if

830
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 2: you're playing rice. But one of Memo's other golden rules

831
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 2: is just because it hasn't happened, doesn't mean it can't happen.

832
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 2: Ole Miss has got an over underwent total of nine

833
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 2: and a half this year. They are among the odds

834
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 2: favorites to win the SEC. They're up there in the

835
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,840
Speaker 2: top four and they've got the fourth best odds, so

836
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 2: not top four, they are number four. If it happens. Though,

837
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 2: if they win the SEC having never appeared in the

838
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 2: SEC title game before, well it means the experiment paid off.

839
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 2: They've leaned about as heavily on the portal as any

840
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:41,399
Speaker 2: SEC program has.

841
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: Can that work?

842
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 2: Can that work?

843
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: Well?

844
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 2: If they win it, it's a pretty telltale sign it worked.

845
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 2: Was the SEC down? So if this happens, that's one thing.

846
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 2: How did it happen? Why did it happen? Was Georgia

847
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 2: just not what we thought that'd be?

848
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 1: Was Bama?

849
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 2: Was Texas were a bunch of teams down and Ole

850
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 2: Miss was just the best of a bunch of pretty

851
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:05,399
Speaker 2: good Or did ole Miss win slugfests against the best?

852
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 1: Did they maybe beat Georgia twice?

853
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 2: Or did they split with Georgia when they got a

854
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 2: second shot in Atlanta?

855
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: Those sorts of questions I'd be interested in.

856
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 2: And if they win the SEC, the logical follow up

857
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 2: is can they win at all? They're going to the playoff.

858
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 2: If they win the SEC, I think they're going to

859
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,959
Speaker 2: the playoff. If they just are in the SEC title game,

860
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 2: can they win at all? And what does this do

861
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,799
Speaker 2: for Lane Kiffin? Lane Kiffin as a legend. If he

862
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 2: does this, Lane Kiffen's doing what no one's really done

863
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:38,280
Speaker 2: in the modern era of like color TV at ole Miss.

864
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 2: So the story of Lane Kiffin, do you realize what

865
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 2: kind of documentary we're seeing playing out in real time

866
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 2: in front of our eyes with what Lane Kiffin's doing

867
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:48,480
Speaker 2: at Ole miss pretty crazy.

868
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: Another what if fingers crossed? What if the Big Ten.

869
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 2: Is not so top heavy this year? What if it

870
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 2: is more than Ohio State and Michigan and Oregon enters

871
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,399
Speaker 2: the equation, so they'll have a lot to say about that.

872
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: Penn State's got a win total of nine and a half.

873
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 2: But let's look elsewhere, because if it's not top heavy,

874
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 2: I don't assume it's because Ohio State came back to

875
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 2: the pack and Oregon came back to the back. I

876
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 2: assume it's because a lot of other programs that have

877
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 2: been averaged raised their level of play. And it's very simple.

878
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 2: What has to happen here. Offense has to be a

879
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 2: lot better. This is a Sarah McLaughlin special of a

880
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 2: stat six offenses in that conference where one hundred and

881
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 2: seventeenth or worse in yards per game last year. Horrifically bad.

882
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,800
Speaker 2: Think about this, Colin, keep this up for a second.

883
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 2: Community Indiana was one hundred and first in the country

884
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 2: in yards per game offensively last year, and there were

885
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 2: six offenses worse than that.

886
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 1: In their conference.

887
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 2: That is bowling shoe ugly, that is dog water disgusting, horrible.

888
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:03,920
Speaker 2: So Iowa improve, that could make the Big Ten not

889
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 2: so top heavy. Nebraska, Wisconsin improve, and that would make

890
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 2: the Big Ten not so top heavy. Penn State, they've

891
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,800
Speaker 2: been pretty good. James Franklin thinks they'll be better offensively

892
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,800
Speaker 2: this year. Okay, I'm listening to that. Rutgers most workable

893
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 2: schedule in the conference. Greg Chiano sleeves already rolled up,

894
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,240
Speaker 2: no matter what time of date is USC with Lincoln

895
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 2: Riley kind of a wild card in this discussion because

896
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 2: offense isn't a problem there, they got the other problem.

897
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,360
Speaker 2: Maybe the Big Ten won't be so top heavy, or

898
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 2: maybe it will be. That's why it's what if. Thirdly,

899
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: what if cam Rising comes back better than ever? Well,

900
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 2: we'll need a new producer for the show. For those

901
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 2: of you who are new around here, Producer Jesse has

902
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 2: not shown his face on camera, but Producer Jesse looks

903
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,399
Speaker 2: a lot like Cam Rising. Some have gone as far

904
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 2: as to question whether they've seen came Rising and producer

905
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 2: Jesse in the same place. And if he comes back

906
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 2: better than ever from injury this year, what is his

907
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 2: best well back in twenty twenty two three thousand yards passing,

908
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 2: had another five hundred on the ground. He limited turnovers

909
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 2: sixty four point seven percent completion guy twenty six touchdowns,

910
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 2: eight picks. He ran for six touchdowns. If he produces

911
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 2: at that level, they'll probably win the Big Twelve.

912
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,640
Speaker 1: They'll probably be in the playoff.

913
00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 2: And look, he's a seventh year guy who is eligible

914
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 2: for an eighth year.

915
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 1: I think it is.

916
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: I think it's he's playing his seventh he's eligible for

917
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 2: an eighth.

918
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 1: Anyway, he's been noncommittal.

919
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 2: I think actually in the preseason he said, nah, seven's enough,

920
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 2: Like what a sentence to actually be able to say, hey, man,

921
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 2: if he plays at that level, maybe someone gives him

922
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:48,880
Speaker 2: a shot in the NFL. Maybe he wants to come

923
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 2: back again. Why would you turn down a career as

924
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,040
Speaker 2: a college football quarterback. That's what he is at this point,

925
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,719
Speaker 2: a career college football quarterback. Let's continue rolling merrily along here.

926
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 2: Still got a lot to get to, Jesse, I'm looking

927
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 2: at something. I think I oh, never mind, I thought

928
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 2: I had I thought I had carbon copied a page

929
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 2: or something like that. Hey, I just want to tell

930
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 2: you guys, because I saw some of you asking about this.

931
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: I saw that story about Dion and Colorado. I didn't

932
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 2: feel like I had a good enough grasp on it

933
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 2: to talk about it on the show tonight. And it

934
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,319
Speaker 2: may be that we get beat on this and other

935
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 2: folks get ahead of it, and we're last to the party.

936
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,760
Speaker 2: That's okay. There were some pretty heavy allegations in that story.

937
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 2: I think it was Anthlon that had the story. So

938
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,439
Speaker 2: if we're last on that, when we're last on that one.

939
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 2: I saw it, I read it earlier today. We've had

940
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 2: a million different things going on. It's a live show,

941
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 2: so I can't tell Colin to stop and then let's

942
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 2: go put together a segment right now. I didn't feel

943
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 2: comfortable talking about it, just being straight with you, so

944
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 2: I'd rather let someone else do that. And we got

945
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,399
Speaker 2: another show Tuesday night, and maybe I'll lead the show

946
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 2: with it for all I know. But I do need

947
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 2: to make calls on it, and I could not make

948
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 2: those calls. And in lieu of that, I said, Nope,

949
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 2: we're probably not going to put in the show tonight.

950
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 2: What I can do is I can continue talking about

951
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:14,120
Speaker 2: what we did plan on talking about Clemson prediction let's

952
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 2: just go on record.

953
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,359
Speaker 1: Here and now, you and I. They got a win

954
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 1: total of eight and a half.

955
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 2: We checked FanDuel earlier today, the win total for Clemson

956
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 2: has dropped to eight and a half. Now, it's heavily

957
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 2: juiced to the over because FanDuel does not land on

958
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 2: even numbers. So they went from nine and a half

959
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 2: down to.

960
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 1: Eight and a half.

961
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 2: Well, that means they got to adjust the juice as well.

962
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 2: But the point being broad strokes purposes, Clemson's win total

963
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 2: at eight and a half, that's pretty low. That's very low.

964
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,479
Speaker 2: Those are the lowest expectations around there in a while.

965
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,279
Speaker 2: They still got the second best odds to win the

966
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 2: acc but their their playoff odds, they're odds to win

967
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 2: the whole thing. They've got the seventheenth best odds in

968
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 2: the country to win the national title. That's a far

969
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 2: cry from seven or eight years ago, more recently than that.

970
00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 2: Even so, that doesn't mean anything. Clemson's overcome odds before.

971
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 2: Can they do it again?

972
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: Well? What do you think you know?

973
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 2: I think I know about Clemson defense can still be

974
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,640
Speaker 2: counted on here, portal or no portal. They got really

975
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 2: good players there. That defense in front, especially, I'm very

976
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 2: excited to see them against George's offensive line Week one

977
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 2: in Atlanta. No less. The other thing, well, another thing

978
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:21,360
Speaker 2: I think I know about Clemson is.

979
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 1: They answered the bell at wide receiver.

980
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 2: They finally got tired of watching a copy paste of

981
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 2: the same body type at receiver, not be able to

982
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 2: get separation, not be able to pull away. And so TJ.

983
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 2: Moore and Bryant Westco are both freshmen. Those are different

984
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,280
Speaker 2: kind of guys. They'll both play this year. They're not small,

985
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,359
Speaker 2: they're both six two or taller, but they can move

986
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 2: and then they're a little more twitchy maybe than some

987
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:47,839
Speaker 2: of the other guys they've had there. A third thing

988
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,920
Speaker 2: I think is I think the program's backed into a

989
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:51,839
Speaker 2: corner a little bit.

990
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:53,719
Speaker 1: The whole chip on the shoulder thing now.

991
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 2: In the past, that's when Clemson as a program has

992
00:48:56,440 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 2: been at its best. They've also had really really good

993
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 2: players to be able to take advantage of that. In

994
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 2: the past, Clemson was overlooked, but it turned out you

995
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 2: shouldn't have overlooked them because they had really good championship

996
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:14,319
Speaker 2: caliber rosters. Is this a championship caliber roster remains to

997
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:17,840
Speaker 2: be seen, but I do think the attitude is that

998
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 2: of one whose back is against the corner or into

999
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 2: the corner? Shall we say? Now big questions here? How

1000
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 2: much does Ka Klebnick progress as a quarterback year two

1001
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 2: under Garrett Riley's system? They were ninety eight and explosive

1002
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,760
Speaker 2: play rate last year not good enough by a long stretch.

1003
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 2: That's not just him. The offensive lines got to be better. Obviously,

1004
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:42,000
Speaker 2: you got to have receivers step up. But the turnover

1005
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 2: issue was terrible last year.

1006
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 1: Two.

1007
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 2: More on that in a second. The second question is

1008
00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 2: this secondary up to the standard of Clemson. I though

1009
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 2: I said we can count on defense, I think it's

1010
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:54,399
Speaker 2: a little bit more questionable on the back end because

1011
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 2: they lost six of their top eight.

1012
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 1: This is Clemson.

1013
00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 2: They backfill nicely defensively, but still at least maintains my

1014
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 2: attention when we go through fall camp. The third thing,

1015
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 2: going back to just the turnovers for a second. So

1016
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 2: you look at Clemson last year and they failed to

1017
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 2: win double digit games, and you think to yourself, because

1018
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 2: you watched them and they were turning the ball over

1019
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 2: a lot, you must think, oh, they had terrible turnover lop.

1020
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 2: They were tied for number one in the country at

1021
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 2: forcing turnovers. They actually took the ball away a lot.

1022
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:34,399
Speaker 2: They had twenty eight forced turnovers last year. Now they

1023
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,440
Speaker 2: turned it over offensively a lot. But that could be

1024
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:39,479
Speaker 2: a good thing or a bad thing if it carries over.

1025
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 2: If your defense takes the ball away a whole lot, again,

1026
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:45,120
Speaker 2: that's a great thing. History says, we can't always count

1027
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 2: on that. History says that's a randomized stat even with

1028
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:53,919
Speaker 2: good defenses. And my concern is at Clemson didn't blow

1029
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 2: many people out last year. If they lose that turnover

1030
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 2: edge and they're not markedly better as a team this year,

1031
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 2: well then what happens with the win loss. That's why

1032
00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 2: that win totals down at eight and a half. A

1033
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,760
Speaker 2: lot of questions like that are valid. What's the staff

1034
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 2: look like at Clemson? It does a top two staff

1035
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 2: in the ACC according to our internal numbers. Here, Dabo's

1036
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 2: still got a top five head coaching grade according to

1037
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 2: our internal numbers. Garrett Riley's coming off his worst year

1038
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 2: as an offensive coordinator. Now that could be erased very

1039
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 2: quickly if they have significant improvement this year. But that's

1040
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:37,120
Speaker 2: something to watch very closely. Wes Goodwin's defensive coordinator grade

1041
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,359
Speaker 2: is still pretty low. But also he needs a lot

1042
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,520
Speaker 2: more he needs a lot more mileage before we can

1043
00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:46,279
Speaker 2: really get a good read on that. Overalls, it's a

1044
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,880
Speaker 2: good staff. It's a good staff. It's an imperfect staff,

1045
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 2: but still a pretty good staff. Schedule breakdown, They got

1046
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 2: to have a fast start or else you could have

1047
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,279
Speaker 2: a rinse repeat of last year. Last year they were

1048
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:59,280
Speaker 2: out of the picture after the first month of the season,

1049
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 2: and this year, in the first five weeks, they got Georgia,

1050
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,919
Speaker 2: they got APP State, and then they go to Florida State.

1051
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 2: They got NC State as well. N C State's the

1052
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 2: third team on the schedule, and they got a buy

1053
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 2: week before NC State. In fact, they've got good bye

1054
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 2: luck against NC State and Louisville. Those are two of

1055
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 2: the better teams in the conference now, Louisville Jesse. I

1056
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 2: think they play like six or seven games before they

1057
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 2: face Clemson, who's rested, and they got to buy week

1058
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 2: Clemson does before NC State as well. They go to

1059
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 2: Virginia Tech. Look at that game November ninth at Virginia Tech.

1060
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 2: A lot of people in Blacksburg have circled that one,

1061
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 2: all right, The best case record scenario for Clemson this year.

1062
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:40,480
Speaker 2: I think there is an eleven and one in the cards.

1063
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 2: It would take a lot of improvement. It would take

1064
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 2: them having good injury luck because they lack the depth

1065
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 2: that some of these other teams do, because they haven't

1066
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:48,920
Speaker 2: used the portal.

1067
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,399
Speaker 1: They haven't had anybody leave. I know what the.

1068
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,600
Speaker 2: Story is from up there. We hadn't had anyone leave. Josha,

1069
00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,120
Speaker 2: what are we supposed to do? We're supposed to have

1070
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 2: more than we're allowed to on our roster. I'm just

1071
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 2: saying what I'm saying. You don't have the depth that

1072
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 2: you've had. Got a lot of players there. You don't

1073
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,320
Speaker 2: have the quality clems and depth that you've had. Stay healthy,

1074
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:11,800
Speaker 2: and that's okay when the close shootouts have fortuitous turnover

1075
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 2: luck and you go eleven and one. If you don't,

1076
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 2: there's a seven and five here. And if it's seven

1077
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 2: and five and you're over under win totals eight and

1078
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:22,960
Speaker 2: a half. So that's not crazy at seven and five.

1079
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 2: Huge questions after the season. I got Clemson going nine

1080
00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:31,080
Speaker 2: and three. I got in preseason power rated number nineteen.

1081
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 2: Now the ACC is not out of reach, but I

1082
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,919
Speaker 2: got Florida State solidly ahead of them, and I got

1083
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,399
Speaker 2: Miami right there with Clemson in terms of quality of team.

1084
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 2: So nine and three is what i'd have. I don't

1085
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 2: think that's good enough to make the playoff. I would

1086
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 2: not guess they make the playoff with that record. Some

1087
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 2: big questions. We've got a lot of questions this time

1088
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:55,000
Speaker 2: of year. One of my questions, by the way, is

1089
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 2: a lot of you watching right now. Just quick question.

1090
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 2: I want you to take a look. Are you subscribed

1091
00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 2: to the channel? Cause it's free, doesn't cost you a dime,

1092
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,560
Speaker 2: and that's how we keep the show free. So we

1093
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,319
Speaker 2: appreciate you watching. Just make sure you subscribe. If you're

1094
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:13,439
Speaker 2: listening on podcasts, appreciate it. Probably at the gym, probably

1095
00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:16,719
Speaker 2: driving around, killing time at work, still laying in bed.

1096
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:18,279
Speaker 2: I don't know what you like to do. I just

1097
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,640
Speaker 2: appreciate that you let us join along. Check and make

1098
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 2: sure you're subscribed. A lot of you think you are,

1099
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:26,359
Speaker 2: and you aren't, so make sure because it doesn't change

1100
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,719
Speaker 2: anything for you, but it really helps us. Okay, that's

1101
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 2: a question that wasn't written down on this piece of paper.

1102
00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 2: Here's one that is, who do you think will have

1103
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 2: the best offense in the country this year. One of

1104
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:42,719
Speaker 2: my close personal friends asked me earlier today. I figured, well,

1105
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 2: I'm not going to answer you privately. I'll just answer

1106
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 2: you publicly. Twenty twenty three, just total yards per game,

1107
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:53,480
Speaker 2: LSU was the best, Oregon was up there, Oklahoma, Liberty, Georgia,

1108
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 2: North Texas, UNC, UCF Texas USC those were your top ten,

1109
00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 2: So Ohio's it wasn't top ten last year. Ohio State

1110
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 2: could be in that conversation this year. They've got explosive

1111
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 2: potential at wide receiver. Everyone's ready to see Jeremiah Smith.

1112
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 2: But you've also got a Mecca Agbuka there. You got

1113
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:16,279
Speaker 2: carneal Taate there. They should have sledgehammer options running the

1114
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 2: football too, though, If that offensive line is anything improved

1115
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 2: relative to last year, they should. With Trey Bon Henderson

1116
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 2: quinch On Judkins in the backfield, they should really be

1117
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 2: able to play any style they want to. Now, maybe

1118
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,080
Speaker 2: that means they grind it out a little bit more

1119
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,359
Speaker 2: and they don't put up incredible yardage numbers, but they're

1120
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,480
Speaker 2: a better football team. If that's the case, they may

1121
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 2: not be in this conversation, but that's because they're in

1122
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:45,040
Speaker 2: better conversations. Oregon I think should be in this conversation.

1123
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 2: I mean, if we're talking one to two combinations at

1124
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,319
Speaker 2: wide receiver, Tes Johnson and Evan Stewart's about as good

1125
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 2: as it gets. That's an elite one two combo. The

1126
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 2: list doesn't end there. Dylan Gabriel came in via the

1127
00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 2: transfer market, so that's as big a pickup as we

1128
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,320
Speaker 2: saw anywhere in the country. They're really good at offensive tackle,

1129
00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,600
Speaker 2: and Will Stein's one of the best up and coming

1130
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 2: coordinators in the country. So Oregon absolutely belongs on that

1131
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 2: list for a bunch of reasons.

1132
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,280
Speaker 1: What about Georgia.

1133
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,799
Speaker 2: Hmmm, you know, Georgia was a top five offense last year.

1134
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:19,399
Speaker 2: Georgia could very well be a top five offense this year.

1135
00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 2: Carson Beck's back. That was their biggest pickup. We hang

1136
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 2: out in Athens and everyone's talking about every other player,

1137
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 2: and they say, well, Carson Beck.

1138
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 1: Coming back, that was our biggest pickup.

1139
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 2: But Trevor Etn is not bad either, the running back

1140
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,320
Speaker 2: from Florida, because he gets to run behind an elite

1141
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,880
Speaker 2: offensive line. They're in a good spot at wide receiver.

1142
00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 2: Even with the dismissal of raw Rod, they still got

1143
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 2: Don Lovett there. They are very good at tight end

1144
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 2: even after losing Bowers, Oscar delp is there lost in

1145
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:50,319
Speaker 2: Lucky's there. Ben Yurasek, the transfer from Stanford's probably the

1146
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,480
Speaker 2: sleeper in that offense. Georgia I think could very well

1147
00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 2: have another top five offense. Now that is not shocking

1148
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:01,880
Speaker 2: for people who pay attention to the sport, but this

1149
00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:04,880
Speaker 2: one's even less shocking. Ole miss should kill it offensively

1150
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:08,280
Speaker 2: this year. Jackson Dart returning even though they lost Judkins

1151
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,440
Speaker 2: at running back, wo Ulyssa s Bentley is one of

1152
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 2: my favorite players now. Ulyssa s Bentley is a stud

1153
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 2: at running back. You'll see that very soon. Some of

1154
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:18,479
Speaker 2: you've already watched him, but if you haven't, you'll see

1155
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 2: they're loaded at wide receiver. Their offensive line is the

1156
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 2: only minor to moderate question here. If they get even

1157
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 2: B minus to be level offensive line play and they

1158
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 2: continue to improve throughout the year as good teams do. Man,

1159
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 2: there are some names that you'll see play on Sunday

1160
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 2: that are going to play their Saturday ball in Oxford

1161
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 2: this year. All at the same time, it could be

1162
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 2: a special year there. And lastly, I'm not overlooking Tennessee.

1163
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:50,440
Speaker 2: We had a few different options for this last spot.

1164
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 2: Tennessee could be one of the best offenses in the

1165
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 2: country this year cause Nico Ama Liava. I got that

1166
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 2: much belief in him. I think the staff has that

1167
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,240
Speaker 2: much belief in him. But do you realize the wide

1168
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 2: receiver talent they have there?

1169
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:04,560
Speaker 1: Still? Don't just be forgetting about Brue McCoy or Squirrel White.

1170
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:08,160
Speaker 2: He's still there. Dante Thornton last year came in. I

1171
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,840
Speaker 2: thought he'd do big things. I still think he could

1172
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:15,320
Speaker 2: do big things. Chris Brasel, so they've got proper transfer fits.

1173
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 2: Offensive line, I think is a question for a lot

1174
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 2: of folks, and they have a little more confidence than

1175
00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 2: the outside world does.

1176
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: They're good enough at running back. It's Josh Hipel. He

1177
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:25,600
Speaker 1: had the number one offense in.

1178
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 2: The country two years ago and could very well be

1179
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 2: in contingent for that again this year. Now, while we're

1180
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 2: talking about best offenses, and we were doing some record

1181
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,760
Speaker 2: predictions earlier, we had all these scrap papers off on

1182
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:41,320
Speaker 2: the side, and I said, well, Jesse, if we did

1183
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 2: all this research on schedules, shouldn't we just go ahead

1184
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 2: and talk about who.

1185
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 1: Has the toughest one. Some of this is just brutality.

1186
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take a sip out of the nondescript water

1187
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 2: jug for just a second. You'll pardon me.

1188
00:58:59,920 --> 00:59:03,880
Speaker 1: You one of these.

1189
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 2: You know about several other of these you might not

1190
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:08,760
Speaker 2: have paid attention to. So here we go, all tee

1191
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,720
Speaker 2: it up like this. Who has the toughest schedule in

1192
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 2: college football this year? Now, A lot of you paid

1193
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 2: attention to Florida. I'll get to them in a second.

1194
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 2: Let me just say I don't think Cal plays the

1195
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 2: toughest lineup of teams. I don't think UCLA plays the

1196
00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,960
Speaker 2: toughest lineup of teams. But man twenty six of thirty

1197
00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 2: two NFL teams this year will travel fewer miles than

1198
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,600
Speaker 2: Cal will, and they play several more road games than

1199
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:40,439
Speaker 2: Cal does. COL will nearly circumnavigate the globe this year.

1200
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:46,560
Speaker 2: The Earth circumference wise is twenty four thousand, nine hundred

1201
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 2: or so miles around, for those of you that believe

1202
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:52,920
Speaker 2: in that sort of thing. COL will nearly travel that

1203
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 2: many miles this year. You see, LA still even worse

1204
00:59:56,040 --> 01:00:02,160
Speaker 2: than that. So circumnavigating the globe conference play plus a

1205
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 2: little token trip to Hawaii for UCLA, that's.

1206
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:07,959
Speaker 1: Where we are. That's where we are. Once upon a time,

1207
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 1: conferences were about regionality and territoriality, and now it's about

1208
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:16,160
Speaker 1: flying halfway to the moon just to play Rutgers. No,

1209
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:19,680
Speaker 1: we have no problem with Rutgers. Florida has the toughest

1210
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:21,880
Speaker 1: schedule in the country. Okay, let's not beat around the

1211
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 1: bush any longer, Florida listen to this paper. Sorry, that

1212
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 1: was not that was not a viable paper. Pop. There

1213
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:30,400
Speaker 1: we go.

1214
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:35,000
Speaker 2: So the JP pole came out last week, obviously the

1215
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 2: most reputable pole known to mankind. Florida plays ten of

1216
01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 2: my top thirty teams this year. Every game from October

1217
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 2: on is against a top thirty team. Every game they

1218
01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 2: play the top two teams in the ACC. Just as

1219
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 2: an added out of conference bonus. They play Miami and

1220
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 2: Florida State. Those are those are my top two teams

1221
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:00,040
Speaker 2: in the A.

1222
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:04,040
Speaker 1: This is the worst one.

1223
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,520
Speaker 2: So I've got em power rated twenty one Florida quality

1224
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:11,200
Speaker 2: of team. Forget the schedule, the quality of Florida's team.

1225
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 2: I've got them power rated twenty one and the jpeople

1226
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:19,200
Speaker 2: in the preseason number twenty one. Team plays eight teams

1227
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:24,360
Speaker 2: rated ahead of them. Two thirds of Florida's schedule consists

1228
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 2: of teams rated higher than number twenty one. And yet

1229
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:31,320
Speaker 2: I will have casual Carl walk in this building every

1230
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 2: day of the week and tell me not Carl Reid.

1231
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:36,680
Speaker 2: By the way, Casual Carl is a fictitious person, But

1232
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:39,080
Speaker 2: casual Carl will stroll up to you and say to

1233
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 2: your face, you are what your record says you are.

1234
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 2: You know, Florida could win the Big twelve, right if

1235
01:01:44,280 --> 01:01:45,919
Speaker 2: I just took them and plopped them in the Big twelve,

1236
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:47,800
Speaker 2: they could win the whole thing and they would be

1237
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 2: a power for Conference champ Instead, they have to essentially

1238
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:57,640
Speaker 2: play the Kansas City Chief schedule. There's a hidden story here,

1239
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 2: though for all the war, we're inted attention that Florida's

1240
01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:06,440
Speaker 2: schedule is getting you know who's schedule it that far behind,

1241
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 2: and is Georgia. And that hadn't been a headline lately.

1242
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 2: Georgia has had a pretty easy schedule because they've been

1243
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 2: in a terrible division and the division doesn't exist anymore.

1244
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 2: Georgia faces seven teams in the top twenty five to

1245
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:21,400
Speaker 2: win the national title at FanDuel. Right now, they got

1246
01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 2: the odds listed to win the national title. Georgia face

1247
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:27,400
Speaker 2: is seven of those teams. Georgia faces six teams I

1248
01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:30,280
Speaker 2: have rated twenty one or higher, and five of those

1249
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,720
Speaker 2: six games are away from Athens. So they go to Texas,

1250
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 2: they go to Bama, they go to Ole Miss, they

1251
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 2: got Clemson in Atlanta, they got Florida in Jacksonville. The

1252
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 2: only game they play in Athens, which one is it?

1253
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 1: Tennessee? Tennessee? They get in.

1254
01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 2: Athens after they go to Oxford, by the way, So

1255
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,760
Speaker 2: that is a tough, a tough ro to ho. As

1256
01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:55,120
Speaker 2: Memo would say, Georgia Tech is a case study team

1257
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 2: this year. Georgia Tech is a sneaky good team that

1258
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 2: probably didn't have much of a shot in the eight

1259
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:04,040
Speaker 2: because of their schedule. They face six teams in the

1260
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:06,960
Speaker 2: top twenty five odds to win the whole thing. They

1261
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 2: got Notre Dame and Georgia. In their out of conference schedule,

1262
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 2: they play six of the top teams. They play six

1263
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:16,200
Speaker 2: of the eight top teams in the ACC. Now I

1264
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:20,760
Speaker 2: want you to compare that. So here is how crazy

1265
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:23,840
Speaker 2: the difference in scheduling is the difference in strength of

1266
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 2: schedule in college football, it makes or breaks your season.

1267
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:30,680
Speaker 2: So I just read you Georgia Tech Georgia Tech's playing

1268
01:03:30,760 --> 01:03:31,240
Speaker 2: Notre Dame.

1269
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: In Georgia.

1270
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 2: They got six of the top eight teams in their conference. Now,

1271
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 2: I want you to compare that to Syracuse. Syracuse plays Ohio,

1272
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 2: Holy Cross, UNLV, and Yukon in out of conference play.

1273
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:49,120
Speaker 2: They do not face Clemson, they do not face Florida State,

1274
01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:51,919
Speaker 2: and they get Virginia Tech and Miami at home.

1275
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:54,000
Speaker 1: What if I just.

1276
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:57,240
Speaker 2: Gave Georgia Tech that schedule? How different would the expectation

1277
01:03:57,360 --> 01:03:59,360
Speaker 2: level be? With Haines Keing coming back a lot of

1278
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,360
Speaker 2: close loss last week, even played Georgia tough last year,

1279
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:05,440
Speaker 2: said last week last year. But that ain't the way

1280
01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:10,640
Speaker 2: it is because schedule is that disproportionate in the sport.

1281
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 2: Mississippi State just pray now, just start saying your prayers now.

1282
01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:17,120
Speaker 1: Brutal road schedule here.

1283
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 2: So they go to Arizona State in week two as

1284
01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 2: an out of conference game. They're just going from Starkville

1285
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:26,000
Speaker 2: to Tempe. Probably not many direct flights for the fan base.

1286
01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 2: They've got a road game at Texas, They've got a

1287
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:33,080
Speaker 2: road game at Georgia. They've got a road game at Tennessee.

1288
01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 2: They've got a road game at Ole Miss. I'm not done.

1289
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:43,080
Speaker 2: Then they come home and get to play Missouri and Texas,

1290
01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:50,280
Speaker 2: A and M and Florida. That's seven teams in the

1291
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:54,439
Speaker 2: top twenty one of the jpeople. Texas is number four,

1292
01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:58,120
Speaker 2: Georgia number one, Tennessee fourteen, Ole, miss eight. They play

1293
01:04:58,120 --> 01:05:01,160
Speaker 2: all those teams on the road and they get number thirteen, fifteen,

1294
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:02,360
Speaker 2: and twenty one at home.

1295
01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:05,600
Speaker 1: Who in their.

1296
01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,480
Speaker 2: Right mind made that schedule? I don't know. So those

1297
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 2: are the toughest schedules to me in the country. FanDuel

1298
01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 2: can take any action you want. Okay, you think that

1299
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:18,200
Speaker 2: I just read that, and you don't think that schedule

1300
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:19,840
Speaker 2: is all that's cracked up to be, well, go bet

1301
01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 2: the over on Mississippi State right now. Conversely, if you

1302
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,240
Speaker 2: think Florida is going to implode in on themselves like

1303
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:27,880
Speaker 2: a dying star, bet the under. Whatever you do, just

1304
01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,400
Speaker 2: do it at FanDuel. Maybe you're sitting there thinking to myself,

1305
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,840
Speaker 2: I don't even bet. That's fine, you just want to

1306
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 2: go look, go over to fandel And for those of

1307
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 2: you who think I'm kidding about that, I'm not so so.

1308
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:46,120
Speaker 2: Anyone who's ever bet sports either has themselves gotten in

1309
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:49,200
Speaker 2: trouble or has known a buddy or two who have

1310
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 2: gotten themselves in trouble. Yet, don't get yourself in trouble

1311
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,600
Speaker 2: betting on this stuff. And if you got any question

1312
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:58,320
Speaker 2: about whether you've got a problem, don't, don't do it.

1313
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 2: Back away, take make your phone crow hop once or twice,

1314
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,280
Speaker 2: and throw it in a river before you're betting money

1315
01:06:04,280 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 2: that you can't afford to lose.

1316
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:07,080
Speaker 1: Responsible gaming.

1317
01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 2: We would never partner with FanDuel if they weren't about it,

1318
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:14,960
Speaker 2: and if they weren't totally comfortable with us talking about

1319
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,000
Speaker 2: responsible gaming. So the best responsible gaming if you got

1320
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:20,360
Speaker 2: any question about this stuff is.

1321
01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:20,840
Speaker 1: Don't do it.

1322
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 2: If you got any question about whether you can afford

1323
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 2: to lose, don't do it. And don't be borrowing money.

1324
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 2: Don't be doing any of that stuff. Just you can

1325
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 2: make some fun side bets with me for something other

1326
01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:34,400
Speaker 2: than money before you start doing that. However, if you're

1327
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 2: in a position where you can and you're so inclined,

1328
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:41,120
Speaker 2: FanDuel is the exclusive odds provider of our show. We

1329
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,640
Speaker 2: work very closely with those guys. I would I partnered

1330
01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 2: with them because they're totally fine with me saying stuff

1331
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 2: like I just said. We wouldn't partner with any other

1332
01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:53,240
Speaker 2: sports book or online sports book, because not all of

1333
01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:56,080
Speaker 2: them are about that FanDuel is, and we appreciate them.

1334
01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:58,600

1361
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 2: believe this year? Listen to this piece of paper? What

1362
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,240
Speaker 2: is it that you believe that strongly? They shake in

1363
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:42,599
Speaker 2: that paper so strongly that you would bet your own.

1364
01:08:42,439 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 1: Money on it?

1365
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:47,400
Speaker 2: Well, I got one about Alabama here that would be

1366
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:53,439
Speaker 2: very lofty. Mason in beautiful Delanaga, Georgia, Gold Country. He said,

1367
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:57,599
Speaker 2: Bama's gonna win the SEC championship. In Jalen Milroe wins

1368
01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:00,720
Speaker 2: the Heisman Now he said they're gonna go twelve and one.

1369
01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:03,639
Speaker 2: Forget the record, Mason, if you were to the wise,

1370
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:05,640
Speaker 2: if you predict a guy to win the Heisman and

1371
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 2: your team to win a conference, I don't need an

1372
01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,760
Speaker 2: their record. It's already bold enough. This is a nine

1373
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:13,840
Speaker 2: point twenty five for me. Now, Milro's got the fourth

1374
01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:16,479
Speaker 2: best odds to win the Heisman. Bama's got the third

1375
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:19,880
Speaker 2: best odds to win the conference. Obviously, if one of

1376
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 2: them happened, it's highly likely the other one is more

1377
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 2: likely to happen, so there's a little correlation there. However,

1378
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,600
Speaker 2: Jalen Milroe threw for two hundred and twenty five or

1379
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:33,639
Speaker 2: fewer yards in eight games last year, so that would

1380
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 2: need to uptick pretty seriously, and it probably will. In

1381
01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 2: this new offense, he'll have better snaps because it can't

1382
01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 2: get worse, and probably less sacks as a result, so

1383
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:47,800
Speaker 2: that will greatly increase his odds. They got a tough

1384
01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 2: road schedule, though, I mean they go to Wisconsin in

1385
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,120
Speaker 2: week three. It's not just some gimmey game. They got

1386
01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:59,040
Speaker 2: Georgia the twenty eighth of September. They go to Tennessee,

1387
01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:03,400
Speaker 2: they go to ls They go to Oklahoma. He'll play

1388
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:05,599
Speaker 2: on national TV a lot. That's for sure. I'm gonna

1389
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:07,680
Speaker 2: make that a nine point twenty five. It's not that

1390
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:09,680
Speaker 2: I don't believe, it's just that's really hard to do.

1391
01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:16,680
Speaker 2: Next up, Lou from Piscataway, New Jersey, says Rutgers will

1392
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,519
Speaker 2: make the playoff. Now now pause, Colin, leave that screen

1393
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:24,160
Speaker 2: shot up, because Lou is a real one. Not only

1394
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:27,320
Speaker 2: did Lou say Rutgers is gonna make the playoff, he

1395
01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 2: was smart enough. They're smart up there in Piscataway. He

1396
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,240
Speaker 2: was smart enough to know I would call BS on

1397
01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:34,360
Speaker 2: this because I.

1398
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:34,920
Speaker 1: Was going to.

1399
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:38,599
Speaker 2: When Jesse brought these to me today, I looked at this, Lou,

1400
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:41,280
Speaker 2: I've just got to I've gotta be real with you.

1401
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:43,679
Speaker 2: I looked at it and I said, this guy didn't

1402
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:47,639
Speaker 2: bet this. And producer Jesse says, well, it just so happens.

1403
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:52,200
Speaker 2: He screenshat his bet slip, and there it is. And

1404
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,760
Speaker 2: Lou's not putting two dollars on this. Lou put down

1405
01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:57,800
Speaker 2: fifty bucks to win nine point fifty if Rutgers makes

1406
01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:01,040
Speaker 2: the playoff, because at FanDuel right now, that's at plus

1407
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:01,840
Speaker 2: eighteen hundred.

1408
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:03,880
Speaker 1: Well, I think this is.

1409
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:06,640
Speaker 2: A nine point seventy five on the Boldness scale.

1410
01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:09,400
Speaker 1: Their over underwent total is six and a half.

1411
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:11,880
Speaker 2: Okay, So for Rutgers to make the playoff, they got

1412
01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:15,679
Speaker 2: to go way over that. Their top fifteen in returning production.

1413
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 2: So Lou's got something going for him there. Very workable schedule.

1414
01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:23,400
Speaker 2: They don't play Ohio State or Oregon or Michigan or

1415
01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:25,360
Speaker 2: I don't think they play Penn State either, do they know?

1416
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 1: So that's as workable as it gets.

1417
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 2: They play some dude named Howard in week one, they

1418
01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:31,840
Speaker 2: got Akron in week two. They go to Virginia Tech

1419
01:11:31,880 --> 01:11:36,120
Speaker 2: out of conference in week three. Very workable. This is

1420
01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:38,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say this as respectfully as possible. This is

1421
01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:43,120
Speaker 2: still Rutgers, all right. There is still a talent deficiency

1422
01:11:43,320 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 2: that you have to make up for. Now, they do

1423
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:48,360
Speaker 2: get every ounce of potential out of that team. I

1424
01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:50,760
Speaker 2: don't doubt that Gregchianno will do that. But we're not

1425
01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 2: talking about winning eight games. We're talking about going to

1426
01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:55,200
Speaker 2: the playoff. They probably have to win the Big Ten

1427
01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:57,759
Speaker 2: to do this, you know that, right? Because the trade

1428
01:11:57,760 --> 01:12:01,040
Speaker 2: off for having a schedule like that, it's ranked sixty third,

1429
01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:03,479
Speaker 2: it's the lowest rank schedule in the Big Ten. The

1430
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:05,639
Speaker 2: trade off for that is you can't just go ten

1431
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,519
Speaker 2: and two and expect to have an at large spot

1432
01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:11,200
Speaker 2: that they probably wouldn't have that, so they probably have

1433
01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:12,760
Speaker 2: to go and win the Big Ten to do that.

1434
01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,240
Speaker 2: Giano magic is it there? That's a nine point seventy

1435
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:21,840
Speaker 2: five for me. Next up, we gotta thread the needle

1436
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:26,719
Speaker 2: special here. Clint from Montgomery, Alabama said, Florida State loses

1437
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:30,439
Speaker 2: the ACC championship game to a team not named Clemson

1438
01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 2: or Miami.

1439
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:33,080
Speaker 1: Okay, so what.

1440
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,840
Speaker 2: Do we have to have here, Well, we gotta have

1441
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,920
Speaker 2: Florida State make it, which which their favorite to do.

1442
01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,760
Speaker 2: But then we've got to have Miami not make it.

1443
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,839
Speaker 2: We gotta have Clemson not make it. Now, maybe Florida

1444
01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:49,160
Speaker 2: State beat both of them. They do play both those teams,

1445
01:12:49,280 --> 01:12:52,120
Speaker 2: so maybe Florida State had something to do with both

1446
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:53,240
Speaker 2: of those teams missing out.

1447
01:12:53,640 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: But then what do we have to have. We gotta

1448
01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:56,280
Speaker 1: have NC State there.

1449
01:12:57,200 --> 01:12:59,680
Speaker 2: We gotta have Louisville or Virginia Tech or SMU, and

1450
01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:01,679
Speaker 2: one one of those teams has to beat Florida State.

1451
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:04,320
Speaker 2: So FSU is good enough to get there, the other

1452
01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 2: two aren't. Well we'll have an underdog situation no matter

1453
01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 2: which team does make it there, and then they got

1454
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:11,240
Speaker 2: to beat FSU.

1455
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:12,479
Speaker 1: A lot of.

1456
01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:14,800
Speaker 2: Stuff had to happen there, and I think it's bold

1457
01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 2: enough to warrant a nine point five on the boldness scale.

1458
01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 2: So good job, because if that comes true, you're getting

1459
01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:25,439
Speaker 2: the childice of supremacy. Clint from Montgomery. And lastly, it

1460
01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:29,320
Speaker 2: sounds like a Bonnie Raiate song. Clint from Montgomery. Angel

1461
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:32,839
Speaker 2: from Montgomery was a Bonnie Rate song. Yeah, Clint from Montgomery.

1462
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:37,439
Speaker 2: Who knows, I'll text her, let's see. Braden from Pensacola said,

1463
01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:41,640
Speaker 2: no playoff spots are lost on conference title week. How

1464
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:44,559
Speaker 2: about that? Every power for a team that's in a

1465
01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:49,679
Speaker 2: conference title game makes the playoff. Now, in the SEC,

1466
01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:51,800
Speaker 2: I don't doubt that. I think both the teams in

1467
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,920
Speaker 2: the conference title game will make the playoff. The Big Ten,

1468
01:13:55,080 --> 01:13:56,960
Speaker 2: I think both the teams in the conference title game

1469
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:57,839
Speaker 2: will make the playoff.

1470
01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: The AC, it's somewhat likely both teams make the playoff.

1471
01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:08,280
Speaker 1: I'm not totally sure. In the Big twelve, I don't

1472
01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:08,880
Speaker 1: know about that.

1473
01:14:09,600 --> 01:14:12,360
Speaker 2: So in the if we just look at the odds,

1474
01:14:12,439 --> 01:14:14,960
Speaker 2: Colin's got it up right, Now, if the odds to

1475
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:17,720
Speaker 2: make the playoff are in front of you, which they

1476
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 2: are if you're watching, Utah is the favorite to win

1477
01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:24,080
Speaker 2: the Big Twelve. The air odds of making the playoffs

1478
01:14:24,160 --> 01:14:29,680
Speaker 2: plus two forty. Just for comparison, the top three teams

1479
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,599
Speaker 2: in every other conference have better odds than the number

1480
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:36,640
Speaker 2: one team in the Big Twelve. So they're trying to

1481
01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:39,920
Speaker 2: tell you expect one from the Big Twelve. Be happy

1482
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:42,840
Speaker 2: if you get more than one. I'm not sure this

1483
01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:45,280
Speaker 2: is gonna happen across the board, okay, And even if

1484
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:46,840
Speaker 2: it does in the Big Twelve, it could come at

1485
01:14:46,840 --> 01:14:50,600
Speaker 2: the expense of the ACC. So I'm gonna call this

1486
01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,880
Speaker 2: a nine point twenty five every team that plays in

1487
01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:57,360
Speaker 2: a conference title game in the playoff, I'm not necessarily

1488
01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:57,800
Speaker 2: feeling it.

1489
01:14:57,840 --> 01:14:58,920
Speaker 1: All right, here's what we gotta do.

1490
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:04,040
Speaker 2: Oh, we got started late tonight, which means we wrapped

1491
01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:04,719
Speaker 2: the show late.

1492
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:05,679
Speaker 1: It's eight forty four.

1493
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:07,559
Speaker 2: I'm sure someone tuned in late and just thinks we've

1494
01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:10,320
Speaker 2: been going for an hour forty five. No, it'll happen

1495
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:12,400
Speaker 2: during the season, but it didn't quite happen that way tonight.

1496
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:14,880
Speaker 2: I've got to give direct Colin time to cut this up.

1497
01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 2: So I have heard your suggestions about the live chat.

1498
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 2: I am going to heavily lean into the live chat

1499
01:15:21,800 --> 01:15:26,280
Speaker 2: incoming shows tonight. Because of technical issues, we're not gonna

1500
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:27,639
Speaker 2: necessarily do that a lot.

1501
01:15:28,040 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 1: But Tuesday Night show, remember that Tuesday Night show this

1502
01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:35,120
Speaker 1: week instead of Thursday. All that's a long until Dan
