College football, Jaymartin, I'll say 8 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 2: this first year the twelve team playoff era, this feels 9 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 2: like the conference championship Saturday in college basketball. Texas is 10 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 2: still playing. They're up seventeen to seven. They just stuffed 11 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 2: Texas A and M on the goal line. Texas A 12 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 2: and M was trying to cut it to a three 13 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 2: point game. Texas has the ball. Iowa State clinches a 14 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 2: spot in the Big twelve championship game with a win 15 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 2: here against Kansas State. Just a minute or two left 16 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 2: in that game BYU, of course, could be in the conversation. 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 2: Oregon just took care of business against Washington Florida. Florida 18 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 2: State had no playoff implications, but there was another flag 19 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 2: plant slash fight. Jymart Have you had fun watching college 20 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: football for the last twelve hours. 21 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, this has been wild. I mean I've just had 22 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 3: multiple screens on all day. I was exercising earlier. I 23 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 3: had the iPad on one game, I had the big 24 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 3: screen on another game. And it's been that way all day. 25 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 3: There's been at least two that I've been interested in 26 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 3: at all times. Just craziness all across the country. Massive stakes, 27 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 3: maybe not as big as stakes in some of the losses, 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 3: but in some huge stakes as well. And on top 29 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 3: of that, Survivor Series was tonight, So all of this 30 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 3: is happening, and I managed to somehow see most all 31 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,559 Speaker 3: of it, and it does look like we're getting towards 32 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: the end of one that looked a little bit dangerous. 33 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 3: But luckily for Steve Sarkisi and Texas A and M 34 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 3: literally has no offense, Like they can't move the football. 35 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 3: If they could, they might have won this game. 36 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: That was Jamart's big bull take from this week was 37 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 2: when all the scenarios were playing out and we saw 38 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 2: that even after a loss to Auburn, that Texas A 39 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: and M would be playing to go to the SEC title. 40 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: All I remember from last week, you were like, just 41 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 2: don't put SEC. Don't put Texas A and M in 42 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: the SEC Championship game. I don't want to watch that. 43 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: They don't deserve to be there. Well, it doesn't look 44 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 2: like it's gonna matter. Texas up seventeen to seven, they 45 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 2: have the ball three minutes left, Texas A and M 46 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: down to one timeout, so it is a two possession game. 47 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 2: It's hard to imagine this one not resulting in a 48 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 2: Texas A and or a Texas win. And we will 49 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 2: get to it once this game goes final. But I'll 50 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 2: tell you what, Jamart, while we wait for this game 51 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: to go final, while we wait to kind of reset 52 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: the playoff picture, we got to go to a game 53 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: that listen, you just laid it out. I know that 54 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 2: it doesn't impact the bigger picture of one team season, 55 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: of the losing team season in terms of what they 56 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: can accomplish this year. But I'll tell you this, I 57 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 2: would not want to be Ryan Day right now. I 58 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 2: would not want to be Ryan Day's family right now. 59 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 2: I would not even want to be an Ohio State 60 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: fan right now, because for the fourth straight year, Ohio 61 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: State has lost to Michigan. By now, you've heard Martin 62 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 2: and VJ talk about it, Monsei and Steve the earlier shows, 63 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 2: but this was Jay Martin. You and I are not 64 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: Ryan Day fans in the least. I've never been a believer. 65 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: Born on third base thinks he hit a triple. That 66 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 2: was the famous Jim Harbaugh quote. Never said it was 67 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: about Ryan Day, but we knew it was. But even 68 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: the most ardent person that does not believe in Ryan 69 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: Day did not see a scenario or at least I 70 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 2: did it where they lose this game a twenty plus 71 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 2: point favorite at home. This is the worst Michigan team 72 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: probably that he's ever faced, because even in that COVID 73 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,279 Speaker 2: year that didn't play. 74 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 3: Definitely be the worst one he ever faces going forward. 75 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: And he couldn't get that shit jam like, yeah, you 76 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 2: say what you just said? What No I said? And 77 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: he couldn't get the wins. So take the floor, Take 78 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: the floor, my friend, take the floor. 79 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: No. 80 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 3: All I was gonna say is this is the way 81 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 3: I heard some other people say this today and the 82 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: right This is the worst Michigan team Ryan Day will 83 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: ever see. If he coaches at Ohio State, pass this 84 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: year because they're all in on ANIL. They're going to 85 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 3: spend a ton of money at Michigan to get better 86 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: and better. They've already got Underwood. You know, all these 87 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 3: things are happening for them right now. This was the 88 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 3: year you had to get them, because it's not gonna 89 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 3: get easier for you after this, And for some reason, 90 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 3: you can't get over this hump. I didn't mean to 91 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 3: take the floor there, but I your point about this 92 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 3: being the worst Michigan team they've seen. It's the worst 93 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 3: one he's going to see. It's gonna get much harder 94 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 3: playing against Michigan if he is still there going forward. 95 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 3: And unfortunately for Ryan Day, the problem is what we've 96 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 3: always said it is when it comes to Ryan Day, 97 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 3: which is his team plays like his attitude. His attitude 98 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 3: determines a lot of it, and he just doesn't have 99 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 3: that mentality that this deserves and requires, and Michigan does. 100 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 3: And it doesn't matter how much more talent was on 101 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 3: the field for Ohio State, Michigan was the more passionate, 102 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 3: more aggressive, and they just came out there and went 103 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 3: for it. 104 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 2: All right, So I'm just gonna I got this text 105 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: right as we went on air. I got a buddy 106 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 2: named Garrett Carr. He works for probible dot Com. He's 107 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: a college football writer. He's actually a Penn State fan, 108 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: so he's feeling himself a little bit right now. This 109 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 2: is I'm just gonna read the quote verbatim a text. 110 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: Imagine being a high school senior class of twenty twenty one, 111 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: regular student deciding to attend Ohio State. Your senior year 112 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 2: of high school is ravaged by COVID, but you're going 113 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 2: to attend the Ohio State University, which hasn't lost to 114 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 2: Michigan in a decade, and you're light years ahead of 115 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: the rest of the Big Ten. And then you get 116 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 2: to campus and Ohio State loses Fida Roe to Michigan 117 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: loses a national title on a miss field goal, and 118 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: you're going to have and you go from having the 119 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 2: most fun offense in college football to having to watch 120 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: Will Howard throw ducks as you lose to the war 121 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 2: first non COVID Michigan team in fifteen years. Michigan plants 122 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 2: the flag on your field twice in three years. It 123 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: may be your last home game as a student. My 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 2: buddy Garrett did not know. I don't think he even 125 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 2: knows that I host in this time slot. But you 126 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 2: talk about about a two hundred and fifty word text 127 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 2: that basically encapsulates the Ohio State student experience. Jmart I 128 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 2: don't think it gets much better than that, because because again, one, 129 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: this was something that none of us could have seen 130 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 2: coming the COVID season. We think Jim Harbaugh is getting fired, 131 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: they don't play the game. Then the first year happens 132 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: and you think, okay, well that was a little bit fluky. 133 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: Then the second year happens and you say, wow, this 134 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 2: is getting weird. Then the third year happens and you're mad. 135 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 2: But Michigan wins a national championship. They're coming off the 136 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 2: cheating scandal, which I think was overblown, but that's another 137 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 2: story for another day. He say, oh, we got to 138 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: get ourselves a play caller, so you hire Chip Kelly. 139 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 2: He's a sitting head coach. Oh, this guy's to be 140 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 2: the answer. And so I think that's what stands out 141 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 2: about this one J. Mart is that in previous years 142 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: we've heard that, you know, remember back to that first 143 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: year that they lost with Stroud and all them, Oh 144 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: they're they're the flu is ravaging the locker room. And 145 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: then uh, you know it's it's the defense's fault. Then 146 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: you fix the defense, and then oh, my goodness, the offense. 147 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 2: Ryan da should to be a play caller. 148 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:23,559 Speaker 3: In this era. 149 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: Uh, make him a CEO head coach. So you go 150 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 2: get Schip Kelly and as you said, worst Michigan team 151 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: that he will face ever as Ohio State head coach. 152 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 2: You can't get it done. Let me let me say 153 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: this and let me ask you this. Okay, Yes, the 154 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 2: in theory, I don't want to say everything that you're 155 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 2: playing for is still in front of you because you're 156 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 2: not playing for a Big Ten title for the fourth 157 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 2: straight year, which is I don't care what, I don't 158 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: care how much expansion, how tough the schedule is. Uh, 159 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 2: you're not gonna play for a Big Ten championship. Yes, 160 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: you are still gonna go to the playoff, and probably 161 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,679 Speaker 2: around eight thirty or so we will reset the playoff 162 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: picture as all these games go final in the you know, 163 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: around eleven eleven thirty Eastern time. But I just bring 164 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: it up, j Mart, because you're not gonna make a playoff. 165 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: You didn't beat Michigan. Let me ask you this. So 166 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 2: so Day has just an absurd buyout. It's thirty seven 167 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: million dollars something in that neighborhood. But one First of all, 168 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 2: it's worth noting their new ad is a guy by 169 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: the name of Ross b York. Where did he come from? Texas? 170 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 2: A and M who fired jimbo Fisher and paid him 171 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 2: twice the amount of money and you know whatever and buyout? 172 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 2: But two, like two questions, do you think Ryan Day 173 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 2: is back next year? And if you don't think he's 174 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: back next year? Or do you think he's back next year? 175 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: And if so, what has to happen between? Like I guess, 176 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: let me and I'm tripping over our words here. But 177 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: two part question is is there any scenario where he 178 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 2: is not back next year? But if he is back, 179 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: what has to happen over the next few weeks for 180 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: you to be confident to say that he's the Ohio 181 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 2: State coach next year. 182 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 3: So immediately after the game, I listened to like the 183 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: instant reaction that Andy Staples and Arii Wasserman did because 184 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: ari was so tight with Ohio State for so long 185 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,479 Speaker 3: that I wanted to hear what he said about Ryan Day. Afterwards, 186 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 3: they are certain that Ryan Day will not get fired, 187 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: that that's not even into cards, it's not even a possibility, 188 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 3: but that Ryan Day might leave because he's tired of 189 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 3: this because he doesn't want this one thing that he 190 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 3: can't seem to overcome to destroy him over this next 191 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 3: year or whatever like that. I was kind of stunned 192 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 3: that they were that just gung ho that he's coming back, 193 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 3: because losing this one is critical now and now we'll 194 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 3: see what happens in the playoff. But they may be 195 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 3: on the road now, first of all, and that's a 196 00:09:55,679 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 3: big deal. The other thing is, like, you've run out 197 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: of things to blame here, bro, Like, was it Colin 198 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 3: McCord because it doesn't look like it was Colin McCord, 199 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: because it doesn't look like it was Jim Harball things. 200 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 2: And he's lost to Sharon Moore twice. Yep, you know 201 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 2: Sharon Moore wins in this series than Ryan Day does. 202 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: Right day has what has two? 203 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, so he's one and four against Michigan. I saw, 204 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 3: I don't know, this got to me. I have no 205 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 3: idea where it started, but it got to me. Uh 206 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 3: this afternoon. Ryan Day is the Michael Jordan of James Franklin's. 207 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, somebody somebody said. 208 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know where it started, but 209 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 3: I started like looking at it inception wise, and I'm like, yeah, 210 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 3: that's pretty much right, because I mean, he does beat 211 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 3: everybody else in the conference, but he doesn't beat the 212 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: team that you're supposed to beat. So all the people 213 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 3: that are saying he's John Cooper are right because that's 214 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 3: the same thing that happened with John Cooper. But I 215 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 3: understand it's not even that. I'm like, he's a good guy. 216 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 3: I don't think he's a bad football coach. There's just 217 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 3: something that's wrong there. There's something that doesn't compute. And 218 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 3: the biggest thing is the attitude that killer feel isn't there. 219 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 3: Sharon Moore looked more passionate last year. He looked more 220 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 3: passionate this year. Remember urban Meyer and the way he 221 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 3: talked about rivalries. Yes, urban Meyer said, rivalries matter. Ryan 222 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 3: Day is the every game on our schedule is the 223 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 3: next big one to pay attention to. It's like, that's 224 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 3: great and all, but urban Meyer understood what it meant 225 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 3: when you were in a big time rivalry game. And 226 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 3: of course he came from the SEC at Florida and 227 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 3: he understood all of these kinds of things. That's the 228 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 3: other things like Ryan Day, I under I guarantee you 229 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 3: now he's taking it seriously. He spent the whole last 230 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 3: year trying to prepare for this game, and they still 231 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 3: found a way to lose it. And it's not that 232 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: they lost it. They scored ten points, Aaron ten points 233 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 3: at home with that talent roster. I was never particularly 234 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 3: sold on Will Howard being some transcendent figure for them, 235 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 3: but ten points. I know Michigan has a good defense, 236 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 3: but look at the teams that they've played this year 237 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 3: that have scored more than ten points, that don't have 238 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 3: anywhere near the talent or money invested in them that 239 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: Ohio State does. Then you've got Chip Kelly, where the 240 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: bloom is way off. 241 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 2: That rose well in. 242 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 3: Terms of his offensive play calling. But then Ryan Day. 243 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 3: It's just all of this seems to come down to 244 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 3: the attitude and the way in which Ryan Day sort 245 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 3: of acts and just comes across. It's just this mentality 246 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: that you watch it and you're just the more you 247 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 3: see it, the less surprised you are in this rivalry. 248 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: Well, two quick thoughts on that one. I was telling 249 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 2: VJ and Martin both of them are Michigan guys. Martin 250 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 2: Spinn's high school years in Michigan, I know Vj's tied 251 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: to the program as well. I think one thing that 252 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: is a big takeaway from today, Chip Kelly may officially 253 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 2: be one, and listen, the thing I'll defend him on is, 254 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 2: you know, all these guys that are offensive coordinators, I mean, 255 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: how much say do they really have when the head 256 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: coach has been a play caller. That was an issue 257 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: with jimbo Fisher, that's an issue with Hugh Freeze, whatever, 258 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 2: blah blah blah. But I bring it up because listen, 259 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: I don't know if we actually talked about this game 260 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 2: last week, and there was no reason to because no 261 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 2: one thought Ohio State was gonna win. I did think 262 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 2: Ohio State was going to struggle to run the ball 263 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 2: because their O line has been beat up and their 264 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 2: D line is or Michigan's D line is really good. 265 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 2: But I think that I just assumed, just like Joel 266 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: Klatt said thirty seven different times during the broadcast today, 267 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 2: and I thought he was very rightfully critical. It's always 268 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 2: tough you have to meet with these coaches face to face, 269 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 2: but he had to be honest and he kept saying, 270 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 2: what are they doing? They have Jeremiah Smith, they have 271 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 2: a Mecca book. They have all these guys, all these 272 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 2: NFL wide receivers, and I don't know if it was 273 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 2: trying to prove your tough than Michigan. I don't know what. 274 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: They kept running the ball up the middle. And so 275 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 2: first off, the Chip Kelly thing, listen, I don't know 276 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 2: how much falls on him, if how much Ryan Day's evolved, whatever. 277 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 2: But then to what you said about the attitude and 278 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 2: the energy that Ryan Day exudes, I'll tell you this. 279 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw this, j Mart I 280 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 2: know you don't spend a ton of time on social 281 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: media anymore, but there was a video that started to 282 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 2: go viral probably mid to late afternoon. Obviously everybody knows 283 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 2: that there's the you know, the after the game, there 284 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: was the flag planted in the middle of the field. 285 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: There was a little brew haha, whatever. But I bring 286 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 2: it up only because there's a video of Jack Sawyer, 287 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 2: who's one of Ohio State's veteran guys captain, came back 288 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: for another year, wanted to beat Michigan whatever, and he's 289 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 2: being pulled away by four guys screaming I'm not gonna 290 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: let them Efen plant the flag on my He and 291 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: you know, there's a lot of f bombs that we 292 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 2: can't talk about. And Ryan Day is standing next to 293 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: him him as this is all unfolding. I'll send you 294 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 2: the tweet after we get after we go to break here, 295 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 2: But and Ryan Day is standing there like a deer 296 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: in headlights, like I just cannot believe this happened again. 297 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: And that, to me is everything you need to know. 298 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 2: Is that whatever it is, whatever makes mentally tough, physically tough, whatever, 299 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: I just don't think Ryan Day has its. And goodness, gracious, 300 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 2: j Mart, what a disaster was. I'll tell you what, 301 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 2: j Mart. We got two hours and forty three minutes. 302 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: If we want to talk more about the flag planning 303 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 3: and every time they showed Ryan Day postgame, and I 304 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 3: want to talk about that same look on his face. 305 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 2: And I was gonna say too, I want to talk 306 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 2: about your idea of being fired versus leaving, versus whatever, 307 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 2: because I think this has to be an inflection point. 308 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 2: It reminds me of something else that's happened in college 309 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: sports here over the last year or so. And I 310 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: am with you is that I just don't believe that 311 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 2: it's as simple as well. He's come back. Sorry, deal 312 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: with it. I think there's a little bit more to it. 313 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: We have a lot more to react to Michigan beating 314 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: Ohio State thirteen to ten. By the way, Texas, Texas 315 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 2: A and M is just about to go final. Texas 316 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: has beaten Texas A and M seventeen to seven. It 317 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 2: will be Texas and Georgia in the SEC championship game. 318 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: By the way, Iowa State has beaten Kansas State, meaning 319 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 2: that Iowa State will play Arizona State in the Big 320 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 2: twelve title game that nobody saw coming. So we are 321 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 2: just getting started wall to wall college football. Plenty of 322 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 2: NFL aertors.

It 331 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: might not be snowing, but there's a dark cloud over 332 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: Columbus right now.

First of all, I know you 335 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 2: said you had a couple quick thoughts that you weren't 336 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: able to get to in the first segment.

Ohio State loses thirteen to ten 339 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 2: to Michigan, the worst Michigan team that Ryan Day will 340 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 2: almost certainly ever face. And oh, by the way, let's 341 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 2: keep in mind as well that this is coming off 342 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 2: of a year in which they've publicly acknowledged spending twenty 343 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 2: plus million dollars in nil money. Plus you went out 344 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: and paid two million to get Chip Kelly as your 345 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 2: offensive coordinator and it results with the same final result 346 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 2: that you've had the last three years against your biggest rivals. 347 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 2: Go ahead, Jamarry Floy's years. 348 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the flag planning. It's unfortunately because of 349 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: how out of control it got. It's not the first 350 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 3: time it's happened. We remember Baker Mayfield doing it, Michigan's 351 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 3: done it before. It also happened and ignited a little 352 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 3: bit of a fight in NC State's game against North Carolina. 353 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 2: As well Florida Florida State just right before we came out. 354 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 3: Here, So maybe we need to knock that off. In general, 355 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 3: we want to talk about I don't know how you 356 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 3: do it. Yeah, take the yell captains and have them 357 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 3: grab the flags two three minutes before the game ends, 358 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 3: so you can't even grab one, so you can't find 359 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 3: one to grab to save these guys from themselves. But 360 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 3: all the commentary that you heard afterwards, and actually this 361 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 3: was interesting because Fox of course is doing a game. 362 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 3: So we're listening to Gus and Joel and they disagree 363 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 3: because Joel's just kind of like, this is kind of 364 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 3: how it is. This is this is what happens here. 365 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 3: This isn't the first time we've seen this in Gusts 366 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 3: are saying this is classless and all this kind of stuff. 367 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 3: He's coming after Michigan. Usually I like Gus, but I 368 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 3: thought he was wrong. Like, I understand you could talk 369 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 3: about the sportsmanship and all this kind of stuff, but 370 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 3: they beat them on their field. It's that rivalry. They 371 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 3: planted the flag. Ohio State didn't care for it, But 372 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 3: if Ohio State really wanted to stop it, Aaron, they 373 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 3: would have beaten them exactly, They would have won the game. 374 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Like, I get that it's not the most 375 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 3: dignified thing to do, but these two teams hate each other. 376 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 3: They might have mutual respect in terms of the ability 377 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 3: on the other side and the tradition and all that, 378 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 3: but they despise each other. Their fans despise each other. 379 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 3: There's a reason why this is called the game. There's 380 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 3: a reason why this is like this. Every year Michigan 381 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 3: pumped them on their field, beat them, held them to 382 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 3: ten points in their building when Michigan was barely over 383 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 3: five hundred and was having an incredibly down year and 384 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 3: had no offense to speak of, and they still were 385 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 3: able to beat you on your field. And then they 386 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 3: planted the flag because they own you, because they've now 387 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 3: beaten you four years in a row, and you watched 388 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 3: it on your own home field. Yeah, I'm sure you 389 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 3: were upset. Should have been more upset during the sixty 390 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 3: minutes during the game, That's what I say. Like that 391 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 3: to me felt like spoiled, cheap losing. And this isn't 392 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 3: about hating Ohio State or anything else, but I was 393 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 3: just kind of like, how soft. Can you be where 394 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 3: was that fight for the last sixty minutes? That was 395 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 3: my issue? And then you look at the Ryan Day thing. 396 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 3: You sent me the video and I watched it and 397 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 3: it's similar to what I had seen live on the thing, 398 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 3: and I'm watching Ryan Day's face and I'm just like, dude, 399 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 3: can you be bothered right now? Like are you just 400 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 3: that sad or blown up or clueless? Get your guys 401 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 3: off the field or fake it and look like you're 402 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 3: part of it, Like, dude, show some brand of emotion. 403 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 3: I don't care what it is. But you can't stand 404 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 3: there like that. You can't I understand how tough that 405 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 3: loss was and you trying to rap in your head 406 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 3: trying to figure out what's what's the reaction going to be. 407 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 3: Maybe you can actually feel the fire coming off your 408 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 3: seat because of that game or whatever like that. But 409 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 3: you have to be the most passionate guy there. I 410 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 3: guarantee you. If that had been reversed and Harball was 411 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 3: the coach or Sharon Moore for that reason, yeah, they'd 412 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 3: either been in the thick of it or they would 413 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 3: have been screaming at their guys to get off the field. 414 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 3: And Ryan Day's just sitting there with his hands in 415 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 3: his like nineteen eighty five letterman jacket, just kind of chilling, 416 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 3: and it's just like, dude, this is the whole point. 417 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 3: Like you are, it's your energy or lack thereof. That 418 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 3: is the biggest cause for what we've seen over the 419 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 3: last four years, because it doesn't matter who's on the field, 420 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter how talented they are, because we see 421 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 3: those guys go and play on Sundays and dominate, but 422 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 3: they can't beat Michigan. They can't even beat a Michigan 423 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 3: who has a quarterback nobody even knows like all of 424 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 3: their quarterback I can't name one of them right now. 425 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 3: There's great stories for Michigan. I have no idea any 426 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 3: of the skill talent players on their team because I've 427 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 3: had no reason to know them all year long. And 428 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 3: yet they still punked you in Columbus in the horseshoe 429 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 3: and planted the flag and then your guys are gonna 430 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 3: go up there and grab the flag. You're not gonna 431 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: do that to us? 432 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 2: Why not? 433 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 3: They just completely annihilated you over the course of a 434 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 3: sixty minute game. I understand it's a three point game, 435 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 3: but it may as well have been fifty. As far 436 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 3: as I was concerned, that was just a bad look. 437 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 3: In my opinion for Ohio State. I've kind of shrugged 438 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: my shoulders at the Michigan of it all and say, yeah, 439 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 3: you know what, you were a twenty point dog to 440 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: your rival. You despise them, You've heard it all week long, 441 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: and then you came in there and beat them. I 442 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 3: kind of understand why you planted the flag. Might be arrogant, 443 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 3: might be, might not be the most dignified thing, but 444 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 3: you earned the right to stand there with your chest 445 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 3: poked out and be obnoxious on their field. 446 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 2: Well, and I think that that's another part of it 447 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 2: that we haven't even hit on yet. As you mentioned, 448 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 2: I literally don't know any of the names of their 449 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 2: skill position guys. Colston Loveland, who was by far their 450 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 2: leading receiver. Joel Kladd had the stat throughout the game 451 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: something like fifty one percent of their passing targets or 452 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 2: something of that nature were to Colston Loveland. During the season, 453 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 2: that guy didn't play. 454 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 3: No, we didn't play. 455 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 2: Oh by the way, remember we were talking about how 456 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: Ohio State has all those NFL wide receivers. Yeah, Will Johnson, 457 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 2: your all American Corner at Michigan did not play. This 458 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 2: was an all systems failure, all things Ohio State, and 459 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 2: it falls on Ryan Day. Tell you what I do. 460 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 2: Want to get it over the news desk because a 461 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 2: lot has happened since we've come on air. When we 462 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 2: come back, I want to talk about what we discussed 463 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 2: before the first break, which was Ryan Day his future 464 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 2: and should he be looking for an escape route if 465 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 2: Ohio State isn't going to get rid of him. We'll 466 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 2: discuss that next before we do, though, news desk, a 467 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 2: lot going on. Does this not feel like the first 468 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 2: Setdaturday in March with all the conference tournaments you're trying 469 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 2: to keep track of who gets the auto bids and 470 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: the at larges and all that stuff. I am loving it. 471 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 6: And do you recall how boring conference Championship Night had 472 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 6: gotten in college football? And I'm looking forward to maybe 473 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 6: a good weekend next weekend. But this with the twelve team, we. 474 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 3: Have to watch Penn State's offense. 475 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 2: It's so I'll just say, part of it's the imbalance 476 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 2: schedules where or imbalance conferences where it's like, oh, we 477 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 2: get to watch Michigan beat another bad Big West team, 478 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 2: a big Big ten West teams. 479 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 6: So yeah, it's what eighteen teams in one league and 480 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 6: sixteen in another and fourteen in another and they're all 481 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 6: just keeping their original names.

It includes Clemson, yes, they're in 504 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 6: against SMU, and it includes as you reference, Penn State 505 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 6: against Oregon for the Big Ten title. But Arizona State, 506 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 6: we know, will start the day next Saturday in the 507 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 6: Big twelve championship game against in Arlington, Texas, against a 508 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 6: team to be named maybe Iowa State. 509 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 2: Unfortunately that would have been fun. 510 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 6: Well, it might still be Colorado. Here are the details. Oh, 511 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 6: Arizona State one today they're seven and two in conference. 512 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 6: Iowa State one Tonight, they're seven and two in conference. 513 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 6: Colorado won yesterday, they're seven and two in conference. If 514 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 6: BYU wins tonight, they're seven and two in conference. Those 515 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 6: four teams would tie for first, each finishing just one 516 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 6: game ahead of three others. What Iowa State needs is 517 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 6: a four way tie and they'll take the tie breakers 518 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 6: and Iowa State will go So they're rooting for BYU tonight. 519 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: So if BYU loses Colorado. 520 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 6: Yes, oh wow, because there won't be a four way 521 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 6: tie in that scenario. It's amazing because Colorado on their schedule, 522 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 6: they didn't play any of the other three first place teams. 523 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 2: What was crazy about Colorado was the way the schedule 524 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 2: set up. They played like three of the preseason toughest 525 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 2: teams to end the season, Oklahoma State, Utah and Kansas. 526 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 2: And I always thought the Big Twelve was kind of like, 527 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 2: Colorado will bring an audience to show off our good teams. 528 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 6: And they played Kansas State. 529 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, and none of the teams ended up being 530 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 2: Kansas State was fine by the end of the year 531 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: and Kansas ended up playing well. But you know, I 532 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 2: think I think they thought that was gonna be a showcase. Hey, 533 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State's awesome. Maybe they're in contention for an animal. 534 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 3: I can't believe Oklahoma State is this bad though, three. 535 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,919 Speaker 6: Wins a nine in conference for Oklahoma State. I'm not 536 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 6: saying they're as bad as Purdue, but you know, on paper. 537 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 6: As for the other news from Colorado, that loss at 538 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 6: Kansas last week is the crusher for the Buffaloes. Because 539 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 6: they'd be alone in first without that happening last week. Colorado, 540 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 6: remember lost at Nebraska very early in the season. But 541 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 6: so why are we getting to all of these minute tiebreakers. 542 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 6: It's because Colorado didn't play head to head against any 543 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 6: of the other three, so they rely on the tiebreakers 544 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 6: further down, like record against common opponents, strength of schedule. 545 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 6: In fact, the Athletics said earlier tonight tweeting out TCU 546 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 6: beat Cincinnati, so Arizona State is officially clinched to birth 547 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 6: in the Big twelve title game, and then said, no, 548 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 6: I cannot explain how those two are connected. Egg quote 549 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 6: that is correct. A TCU win against Cincinnati, which has 550 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 6: nothing to do with our current conversation, we would think, 551 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 6: is actually what clinched ASU spot in next weekend's title game. 552 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 2: That's TCU. Yeah, I forgot doing. 553 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 6: Something, Yes exactly. Clemson lost at home seventeen fourteen against 554 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 6: South Carolina, But guess what Clemson's in the ACC title 555 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 6: game against SMU next Saturday night. Because sixth rank Miami 556 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 6: was up twenty one to nothing at Syracuse second quarter 557 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 6: and still lost the game. Hurricanes lost forty two to 558 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 6: thirty eight. Wow, Michigan waned Ohio State thirteen to ten 559 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 6: on a short field goal in the final minute. Number 560 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 6: three Texas won at Texas A and M tonight seventeen 561 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 6: to seven, so the Longhorns go to the SEC championship 562 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 6: game against Georgia in Atlanta. Number one Oregon over Washington 563 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 6: forty nine twenty one, and at fourth rank Penn State 564 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 6: and Nitney Lyons forty four to seven over Maryland. Today 565 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 6: Penn State not Ohio State, going to the Big Ten 566 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 6: title game against Oregon next Saturday night. The Arizona Cardinals 567 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 6: gave running back James Connor a two year extension college hoops. 568 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 6: Number six Houston was beaten in overtime by San Diego 569 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 6: State in Vegas tonight in a tournament third place game, 570 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 6: and former Saint John's hoops coach lou Carna Seca has 571 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 6: died at the age of ninety nine. 572 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: Back to you, thank you very much, Steve Desager.

You both asked me 584 00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 3: the same question. You said in game you have your 585 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 3: eye on this weekend, and I said, keep your eye 586 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 3: on Georgia, Georgia tech O. What again for me saying 587 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 3: that to you on Thursday? I was like, there's something 588 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 3: about Georgia tech and it depending on which Georgia shows 589 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: up that could get really interesting. I couldn't have been 590 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 3: more right, of course, and I've been wrong on several 591 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 3: things this year, so it was I felt really good 592 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 3: about this right, But here's where you need to close 593 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 3: on me on my shoes and then you can get 594 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 3: to that read that I interrupted you. I didn't realize 595 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 3: that game was Friday. Oh no, I was so caught 596 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 3: up and I was so caught up in family stuff. 597 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 2: Please tell me that you eventually figured out. 598 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 3: I didn't watch I haven't didn't watch a second of it. 599 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 3: I didn't learn it until today when I went to 600 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 3: some websites set up for the morning on my arm 601 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 3: when of these games being played, and I first thing 602 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 3: I say is a splash screen of an eight overtime 603 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 3: game that Georgia won. And in my head at first, 604 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, so that already played, and I was right, 605 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 3: look at that Georgia won it, but they almost lost it. Huh. 606 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 3: But then I'm just like, but I don't even it 607 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 3: got played, and this was this incredible event that took place. 608 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 3: I missed the whole thing. Haven't even seen a highlight 609 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 3: of it, haven't seen anything about it. As far as 610 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 3: my world is concerned. It did not take place. So 611 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 3: it might've been my best prediction of the fall this year, 612 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 3: and I can't I don't think I can take full 613 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 3: credit for it because I didn't actually watch the event 614 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 3: or even know that it took place. 615 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 2: You're so good you didn't need You didn't even need 616 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 2: to watch the event or no right was being played. 617 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 2: All I'll say really quick on that game. First of all, 618 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 2: no shame in you not knowing it. And it was funny. 619 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 2: This was one of the conversations Dan Byer and I 620 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 2: had on Thanksgiving Day, love filling in with Dan. He 621 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 2: did you know, he's awesome. But you know, we were 622 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 2: talking about, you know, the old you know trope about 623 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 2: the Lions shouldn't be playing on Thanksgiving Day and is 624 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: it time to move them off? And then we kind 625 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 2: of did it like a little gag of is it 626 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 2: time to move the Cowboys off Thanksgiving Day? All that? 627 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 2: But why I bring it up is because I said, 628 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 2: even when the Lions are bad, like, are there any 629 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 2: sports traditions that we can just keep and not push 630 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 2: aside for money or greed or whatever. And one of 631 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 2: the examples that I used was why isn't the Egg 632 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 2: Bowl on Thanksgiving? And so we had the Egg Bowl 633 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: on Black Friday. We had this Georgia Georgia Tech game 634 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 2: that's always on Saturday being played on Friday. And it's like, 635 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 2: there's no reason for you to have thought that game 636 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 2: was yesterday because of the fact that it is literally 637 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: never been played to my knowledge, on Black Friday. And 638 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: so it's just one of those things. By the way, 639 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 2: it was a wild game. I'll say this final drive 640 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: little bit of a favorable whistle potentially for Georgia. There 641 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: was a pass interference call that was sketchy at best. 642 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 2: There was a clear hold that did not get called 643 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 2: on Georgia. They end up scoring to tie it. I 644 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 2: actually felt bad Georgia Tech was I don't want to 645 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 2: say they were in control the whole game, but they 646 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 2: led for virtually the whole game. Georgia ties it up. Obviously, 647 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 2: once you get to overtime you could kind of figure 648 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 2: out what happened and Georgia Tech they did have some 649 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: opportunities in one of the many overtimes to win it. 650 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 2: So it was a crazy game by the end. The 651 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 2: right team probably won, but it was one that probably 652 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 2: could have and maybe should have been won by Georgia 653 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 2: Tech in regulation. My only other take on that was 654 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 2: my poor wife and her family were at my mom's house. 655 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: They could not care less about college football. My stepdad 656 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 2: and my mom are pretty into college football whatever, and 657 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: we're all watching it in the corner and you could 658 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 2: just see the interest level in them in the game. 659 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 2: I'm like, this is a great game. And I said 660 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 2: to him, I said, going in overtime, I was like, well, 661 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 2: you know, we're gonna go as soon as the game's over. 662 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 2: And then it goes to overtime, then it goes to 663 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 2: a second and a third and a fourth and they 664 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 2: could not care. I'm like, you understand, this is a 665 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 2: historic thing, like this doesn't happen. Could not have cared less. 666 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 2: So that was my experience, was like sort of wanting 667 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 2: it to end, but sort of not wanting it to end, 668 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 2: sort of wanting Georgia Tech to win just to make 669 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 2: fun of the SEC but then sort of by the 670 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 2: end being like, wow, Georgia Tech, you had thirty seven 671 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 2: chances in overtime and didn take advantage of them. But yeah, 672 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 2: it was a crazy game. And credit to you for 673 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 2: earmarking it early in the week because. 674 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 3: I'm marking it, and then forgetting to notice that it happened, 675 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 3: but you made me. Thank you for the defense. That's right. 676 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 3: I was expecting Saturday because it's always happened on Saturdays. 677 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 3: Someday we'll get into the argument or the discussion about 678 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 3: whether or not we need to stop playing football the 679 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,720 Speaker 3: way we do in overtime in college. 680 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 2: Oh my god, so bad. I mean, yeah, we don't 681 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 2: need to get into that conversation because everyone agrees it's 682 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 2: the stupidest overtime rule ever. And we talked about it 683 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 2: a little bit last week. Auburn A and M goes 684 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 2: to four overtimes and Florida or Georgia does beat Georgia 685 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 2: Tech in eight. Tell you what, j mart we will 686 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 2: come back, and I do want to just finish up 687 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: the Ryan Day conversation. As you said, people who cover 688 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 2: the team don't believe there is any chance he will 689 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 2: be fired. I think one, that's a mistake, but who. 690 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 2: The bigger question is should he consider looking for another job? 691 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 2: And I might have one circle for him. That's next 692 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Rady. 693 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 694 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 2: Welcome back everybody, Fox Sports Radio.

We got the full house in here today 700 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 2: on a Saturday into Sunday.

All right, 707 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 2: So I'll tell you what, Jamart I think at the 708 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 2: top of the next hour before we switch over to 709 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 2: the NFL. It's probably a good idea to kind of 710 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 2: set the playoff picture now with basically essentially every meaningful 711 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 2: game done. As de Segre just told us, by you, 712 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 2: if BYU were to win, Colorado would actually advance to 713 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 2: the to the Big twelve title game. So basically there's 714 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 2: one spot up for grabs in one of these conference 715 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 2: title games. But I bring it up because I want 716 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 2: to quickly talk about Ryan Day, because one, I actually 717 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,439 Speaker 2: heard the same rapid reaction YouTube video that you did 718 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 2: from the Athletic where they basically insinuated that there's no 719 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 2: way Ryan Day is leaving and that he probably won't 720 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,919 Speaker 2: get fired. One what stands out to me about it 721 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 2: is I understand why it seems silly, why Ryan Day 722 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 2: has a thirty seven thirty eight million dollars buy out whatever. 723 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 2: What I also know, Jmart is we've seen this a 724 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: million times in college sport, where there's a guy that 725 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 2: it's clearly not working, where he's clearly not the answer, 726 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 2: where the fan base has clearly turned on him, and 727 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 2: there is no getting that fan base back. And I 728 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 2: just think that to me, there's always it always ends 729 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 2: up working out the same way. The guy doesn't come back. 730 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 2: And the example I was gonna use earlier today kind 731 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,320 Speaker 2: of felt like John Caliperry losing to Oakland in the 732 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 2: NCAA Tournament, where just like this guy can't come back, 733 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 2: like it was so toxic. And I think Ryan data 734 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,240 Speaker 2: his credit has been better in the regular season, attack 735 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 2: been better in the postseason. We know a missfield goal 736 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 2: away from playing for a championship against TCU, but that 737 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: missed field goal is kind of a metaphor for like 738 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 2: his entire tenure, like you're this close, but in the 739 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 2: games that matter, you don't come through. Uh ohen four. 740 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 2: In your last four against Michigan, you lose to Georgia, 741 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 2: and the College Football Playoff a few years ago, you 742 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 2: lose to whatever and soaps Clemson. When you lose to Clems, 743 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 2: it's just you go on and on down the leg. Yeah, well, 744 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 2: I think I think they had like a seventeen to 745 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 2: nothing lead against Clemson in that game. So I bring 746 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 2: it up because one, I don't believe that there's a 747 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 2: zero possibility that he gets fired. 748 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 3: I don't either, But two, so we're in. 749 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 2: Agreement on that. I think he might try to look 750 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 2: out the side door. And I don't, you know, I 751 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 2: don't know if he's a legitimate candidate for like NFL 752 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 2: head coaching jobs, but is it Is he a candidate 753 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 2: for any of them? There's gonna be a lot open, 754 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 2: But I was thinking this this might sound crazy. Earlier 755 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 2: today Gus Melson, which was kind of leaves UCF as 756 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 2: the head coach to go take the Florida State offensive 757 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: coordinator job. Obviously just want it out of that job. 758 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 2: Like if I'm Ryan Day, I probably at least make 759 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:53,000 Speaker 2: a phone call to UCF like Big twelve job power conference, 760 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 2: rich recruiting base. By the way, I beat all the 761 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 2: teams I'm supposed to. I don't know. I just you 762 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 2: UF is kind of irrelevant in this conversation. I just 763 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 2: don't believe that there's zero percent chance that he could 764 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 2: get fired. And I think even if he doesn't get fired, 765 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 2: it would probably be smart for him at this point 766 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 2: to start seeing if there was anything else out there 767 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 2: that kind of makes sense. 768 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 3: Ohio State is just a different animal, right it is 769 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,399 Speaker 3: when you get to this point, it really depends on 770 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 3: what the people with money at that university and what 771 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 3: the general consensus is because it's so important to everything 772 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 3: that happens in the state of Ohio. The most powerful 773 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 3: person in the state of Ohio now that jd Vance 774 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 3: is going to be the vice president, is the head 775 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:41,240 Speaker 3: coach of Ohio State football is more important to the Browns, 776 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 3: more important to the Bengals. That's a guy that is 777 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 3: kind of the figurehead for the whole state. And if 778 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 3: the sea comes after him, I don't know if zero 779 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 3: percent to me is just do you know him? Or 780 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 3: are you too close to him? You might be a 781 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 3: really nice guy, but I just don't buy that. 782 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 2: Just don't buy it. Ryan Day, We're gonna continue this coverage. 783 00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 2: Ohio State lose again to Michigan, We're gonna come back, 784 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 2: look at the playoff picture. This is Fox Sports Radio. 785 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 786 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 2: Welcome in everybody, hour two tours Martin Fox Sports Radio. 787 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 2: We are broadcasting live from the Tireraq dot Com studios. 788 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 2: Tiraq dot Com we'll help you get there, an unmatched selection, 789 00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 2: fast free shipping, free road hazard protection, and over ten 790 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 2: thousand recommended installers. Tirac dot com The waysire buying should 791 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 2: be in our one. Oh buddy, did we talk a 792 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 2: lot about the situation at Ohio State. What could possibly 793 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 2: happen with Ryan Day's future? Is he out? And just 794 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 2: the general malaise around that program, just with everything going 795 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 2: on after a fourth straight loss to Michigan Jmart. Before 796 00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 2: we just turn what I want to do. I want 797 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 2: to spend a few minutes kind of talking about the 798 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 2: playoff picture as it stands. Any last thoughts on Ryan Day, 799 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 2: obviously understanding that we have our three to get back 800 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 2: into it. 801 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 3: Just it's a tough night for him. There's really not 802 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 3: anything else to add that we didn't cover in the 803 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 3: first hour. Just this is the one you can't lose, 804 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 3: and it's the one you definitely can't get in the 805 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 3: habit of losing. And we're now at a point where 806 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 3: are we going to keep on doing the exact same 807 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 3: thing or are we going to do something else. I 808 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,720 Speaker 3: understand Ryan Day is not out there, but his team 809 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 3: is a reflection of him, and that reflection right now 810 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 3: is one that's a little bit too soft against Michigan, 811 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 3: and that's just not something that they're going to be 812 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 3: able to sustain long term. And by them, I mean 813 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 3: they're fans, the deep pockets, all the people in the state, 814 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 3: like they're not going to tolerate this. Like losing, you 815 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 3: lost the others in hardball leaves all right, now it's 816 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,919 Speaker 3: ours again. Michigan's barely five hundred, they're six and five, 817 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 3: they have no offense to speak of, and then they 818 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 3: beat you anyway on your home field. For by the way, 819 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 3: this is the Is this the third time or the 820 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 3: fourth time in a row that they've lost to Michigan 821 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 3: when they were the number two team in the country. 822 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 3: M So think about that as well. Think about where 823 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 3: they are coming in and what they've done. But if 824 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 3: you don't win this game, that's the only thing nobody's 825 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,359 Speaker 3: gonna remember anything else that Ohio State did this year. 826 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,439 Speaker 3: The two games that you remember most well, I guess 827 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 3: you might remember Indiana a little bit, but this loss 828 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,720 Speaker 3: is number one, and then you went to Oregon and lost. 829 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 3: Those are the two games that you think about. Because 830 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 3: of Ohio State, you don't worry about the wins. You 831 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:40,879 Speaker 3: remember the. 832 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 2: Losses well, and listen, I don't want to make this 833 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 2: another Ohio State segment, because we spent an hour talking 834 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 2: about that, so I think that's yeah, the last thing 835 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 2: I was gonna say. 836 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 3: Though. 837 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 2: Those two losses whalle completely different, aren't they a metaphor 838 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:58,240 Speaker 2: for Ryan Day? The Oregon loss? You are this close, 839 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,399 Speaker 2: there's the questionable pass interference call, which I still think 840 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 2: was probably the right call, but it obviously goes against you. 841 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 2: And then Will Howard can't get down in time to 842 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 2: run a final play. And then of course today where 843 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 2: there's just so many chances and you can't take of it. 844 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 2: That's the Ryan Day era. Close in the big games, 845 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 2: but they just don't get over the hump. And so 846 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 2: with it. It is worth noting that Ohio State, I 847 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 2: still think is very much in the playoff picture. And 848 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 2: so what I want to do now, I want to 849 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:30,840 Speaker 2: reset it. We know a couple things. You know what, Mary, 850 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 2: I didn't even tell you this. Give us a little 851 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,640 Speaker 2: football music, get us in the football mood. I want 852 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: to set what I believe is the playoff picture so far. 853 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 2: So first of all of the four power conferences, three 854 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 2: of the title games are set. We will have a 855 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:49,319 Speaker 2: rematch Georgia versus Texas in the SEC Championship game. We 856 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 2: will have Oregon versus Penn State in the Big Ten 857 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 2: Championship game. We will also have we also have in 858 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 2: the ACC Championship game. About this SMU versus Clemson. Clemson 859 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 2: takes a third loss today against South Carolina. It was 860 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 2: an out of conference game, so it does not end 861 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 2: up hurting their ACC record, and with Miami losing for 862 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 2: a second time this month, Miami is out of the 863 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,880 Speaker 2: ACC Championship game. So we will get Miami in SMU 864 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 2: or Clemson in SMU for the ACC title. By the way, 865 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 2: and I know you got some Clemson thoughts, so I 866 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 2: want to know. Well, I'm gonna tell you about this Miam, Miamiami, 867 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 2: That's what I meant. 868 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 3: Yes, Lincoln Riley thinks Miami needs a defense like what 869 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 3: in the world, like cam Wood finally just he just 870 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 3: ran out of magic. It's not that he's not great 871 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 3: and he hasn't done great things for them all year. 872 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 3: They couldn't. I mean, you can beat them even if 873 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 3: they score fifty because they can't stop you. Like, I'm 874 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 3: not surprised at all to see this go this way 875 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 3: for them down a stretch because they were living so 876 00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 3: dangerously earlier in the year. But they're frauds, man, Like 877 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,239 Speaker 3: I do, I don't, I mean, I don't think there's 878 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:05,919 Speaker 3: any other way to look at it. They probably should 879 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,439 Speaker 3: have lost a Virginia Tech. They probably should have lost 880 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 3: at least there was one cast the game that ended 881 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 3: after cal Yeah. Yeah, yeah, they should have lost both 882 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 3: of their frauds. They are complete and total frauds because 883 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,720 Speaker 3: they only play one half of the game. They they 884 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 3: have no defense. I don't even I don't even know 885 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,240 Speaker 3: why they're putting guys out there to play defense because 886 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 3: it is an abject disaster. 887 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, they haven't been as vocal about money spent in 888 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 2: nil as Ohio State. But I mean cam Ward had 889 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 2: literally declared for the NFL draft and then announced he 890 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 2: was coming back to college to play at Miami. Like 891 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 2: that kid didn't come back to get a you know, 892 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,439 Speaker 2: a sociology degree. He came back because he was getting money. 893 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 2: And it's listen, to his credit, it's obviously helped his 894 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 2: draft stock whatever. I'm not saying it hasn't. But yeah, 895 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 2: a complete meltdown for Miami. So j Mart I was 896 00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 2: thinking about this. I actually think the playoff is mostly 897 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 2: set going into next week. Let's talk this out here, Okay, 898 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 2: So we have the five conference champions, so that would 899 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:11,720 Speaker 2: be the SEC champ, the ACC champ, the Big ten champ, 900 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 2: the Big twelve champ, and then I think the Mountain 901 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,880 Speaker 2: West is probably going to get their team in. So 902 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 2: that's five teams right there. Let me ask you this. 903 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:26,439 Speaker 2: I believe that the loser of the SEC championship game 904 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 2: is in Texas is coming in at eleven and one 905 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 2: Georgia at ten and two. Do you believe that if 906 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 2: Georgia were to lose this game there would be any 907 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,319 Speaker 2: argument to keep them out of the college football I mean, 908 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 2: they're being an argument. Do you believe they would actually 909 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 2: get left out? 910 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 3: No? I don't. I think it's a three big league. 911 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:47,400 Speaker 3: I think at this point, based on some of the 912 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 3: other things that we have seen and may still see 913 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 3: before long, I do think it will be taken into 914 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 3: consideration that they're playing the extra game. They also already 915 00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 3: beat this team earlier in the year. I don't know 916 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 3: what that necessarily means, but at this point, I think 917 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 3: Georgia is in now. If they had lost uh, on 918 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 3: Friday night. Maybe you have a different argument, or you 919 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 3: definitely have a different argument, but that's not the case here. 920 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 3: They did win that game, even if it was kind 921 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:19,399 Speaker 3: of wild and weird and not football for five six 922 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 3: overtimes worth or whatever like that. I just I don't 923 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 3: see a universe where Georgia or Texas is not part 924 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,439 Speaker 3: of this twelve considering how everything else has shaken out. 925 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 2: Here is my prediction for a discourse that you and 926 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 2: I will be forced to talk about next week in 927 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 2: this timeslot. It will be I think Texas beats Georgia 928 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 2: in the SEC Championship game because Georgia hasn't played two 929 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 2: great games in a row all year, and the conversation 930 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 2: will be should either Alabama or ole Miss, who also 931 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 2: has three losses, get in over Georgia. And I think 932 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 2: it will be a conversation. But I think the committee 933 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 2: has basically said we are not going to punish teams 934 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 2: for having to play an extra game, So I think 935 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 2: it will be a discourse that we have to address. Obviously, 936 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 2: we can't say anything for certain, but I can't see 937 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,360 Speaker 2: the scenario where the committee punishes Georgia for playing the 938 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:16,400 Speaker 2: extra game against by the way, what will be the 939 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 2: number two team in the country at that point if 940 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,359 Speaker 2: they were to lose it. But I could see that 941 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 2: being a discourse Alabama fans and Ole miss fans getting 942 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 2: vocal on social media saying, we beat this team, why 943 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 2: would they get in ahead of us? And why they 944 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,439 Speaker 2: would get in was because they played the extra game. 945 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 2: Can you see that? 946 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 3: Man? I think that's right. Yeah, I can understand that. Yeah, 947 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 3: we probably are going to have that discourse. Ole Missus 948 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 3: losses just aren't impressive. The teams they lost to. Those 949 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 3: are the ones you can't lose to. And I think, honestly, 950 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 3: you look at Alabama, they lost to Vanderbilt, I think 951 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 3: that's probably enough as well. But between the three of them, 952 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:51,799 Speaker 3: one of them is having to play an extra game 953 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 3: because they qualified for the SEC Championship and beat Tennessee, 954 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,480 Speaker 3: who is a playoff team. So you look at that, 955 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 3: I think there's enough that I don't think that. I 956 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,240 Speaker 3: think Georgia is the third one. I don't think Alabama 957 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 3: will miss don't. I don't think that's gonna end up 958 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 3: being that big a story, but yeah, it'll probably create 959 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:12,360 Speaker 3: a fun segment for US next week. 960 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 2: Okay, So SEC runner up is in Big six, Yeah, 961 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,760 Speaker 2: Big ten, Oregon, Penn State. Even if Penn State loses, 962 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 2: they would be eleven and two. Their only losses against 963 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 2: Ohio State and Oregon. Penn State is obviously in, right 964 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 2: if they lose that game, you think, so okay? Yes, 965 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 2: So that's now seven teams, the five automatic bids, plus 966 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 2: the Big ten runner up, the SEC runner up. You 967 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 2: have said Tennessee you believe is in at ten and two. 968 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 2: I believe they are in as well. Do you have 969 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 2: anything else to add there? 970 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:44,840 Speaker 3: No, If they had lost to Vanderbilt, they would have 971 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 3: been out. But I think that's what it was. I 972 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 3: think that was a de facto win and you're in. 973 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 3: And it started out rough for them and then they 974 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 3: just turned on. And I actually think they may host 975 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 3: a playoff game. I think at least it's we'll see 976 00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 3: how the how the other things shack out, but I 977 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 3: think they have an op ortunity to host one in Knoxville, 978 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 3: and I don't know what they will be, but I 979 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 3: definitely think when you look at it, the Arkansas loss 980 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 3: was bad, but I mean, who else are you going 981 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:13,720 Speaker 3: to put in over them that has a better case? 982 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 3: I think things that have helped them. Miami losing and 983 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 3: things like that. The ACC probably being a one bid 984 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 3: league now or very likely being a one bid league. 985 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 3: I think that helps them as well. I said a three. Yeah, 986 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 3: I just I think Tennessee is in. I don't think 987 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 3: they I think they've proven enough. I think they'll be 988 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 3: about an eight. 989 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 2: All right, So that is now eight teams in. We 990 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 2: have the five automatic bids, the SEC runner up either 991 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,279 Speaker 2: Georgia or Texas, the Big ten runner up either Penn 992 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 2: State or Oregon. We add Tennessee to the mix. Notre 993 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 2: Dame has to be in at eleven and. 994 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 3: One right for sure. 995 00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:49,279 Speaker 2: Okay, so that that is now nine teams. Let me 996 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 2: ask you this the one that caused a thousand Helena Troy. 997 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 2: You know she had the face that launches out a 998 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 2: thousand ships. Kurt Signetti in Indiana launched a thousand takes 999 00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 2: a few weeks ago. But they finish eleven and one. 1000 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 2: By the way, I don't know that this really matters. 1001 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:10,319 Speaker 2: That Michigan win looks a tiny bit more impressive than 1002 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 2: it did as your best win three weeks ago. But 1003 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,839 Speaker 2: an eleven and one Indiana I think is in. 1004 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 3: Do you agree? Yes? I think that both Clemson losing, 1005 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 3: Miami losing, just some of the other things that we've seen. 1006 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 3: I think that Indiana is the only thing you can 1007 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 3: knock Indiana for is not beating Ohio State. That's a 1008 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 3: pretty tall order when you consider everything else. Like I 1009 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 3: just like we talked about Clemson being in their schedule 1010 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 3: was pathetic, and they lost on their home field to 1011 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 3: South Carolina and Leonora's Cellars, then they're gonna go play 1012 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 3: in this championship game. But I just look at them like, no, 1013 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,480 Speaker 3: you haven't done enough like that. I think that Indiana 1014 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,879 Speaker 3: benefits for some other things. But truthfully, I'm glad they're 1015 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 3: in because a one loss team from the Big Ten 1016 00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 3: really should be, you would think. And so I think 1017 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 3: they're safe now. Yeah. 1018 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,040 Speaker 2: And the only thing I'll say quickly on Indiana, if 1019 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 2: the argument is they have no great wins, the counter 1020 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 2: argument is, not only do they have no bad losses, 1021 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:12,359 Speaker 2: they basically destroyed everybody. And so if you're comparing Ole 1022 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 2: miss has a great win against Georgia, they also have 1023 00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 2: a terrible loss to They have a terrible loss to Kentucky, 1024 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 2: and so to me, Indiana is in as well. So 1025 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:25,399 Speaker 2: that gives us now ten teams. We have the SEC champ, 1026 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 2: the five Conference champs, the SEC and Big Ten runners 1027 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 2: up is seven, Tennessee is eight, Notre Dame is nine, 1028 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 2: Indiana's ten, A ten to two Ohio State that is 1029 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,359 Speaker 2: going to have two top ten wins, Penn State in Indiana. Well, 1030 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 2: we could talk about whatever today, but I assume that 1031 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 2: you assume that Indiana or that Ohio State is in 1032 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 2: as well, right, correct? Yeah? I think they are too. 1033 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know, Yeah, I don't. I don't 1034 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 3: think there's the universe where they're not in. 1035 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 2: Yes, and I agree with that. I think you mentioned 1036 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 2: it earlier. Probably at this point on the outside looking 1037 00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 2: in of hosting a playoff game, you'd think that a 1038 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,240 Speaker 2: lot of schools would have priority over that. But Ohio 1039 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 2: State is at number eleven. This is where it gets interesting, 1040 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 2: j Martin. That to me, unless I'm missing something super egregious, 1041 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 2: is the end of where you can definitively draw the 1042 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:19,239 Speaker 2: line and say these teams are in. I think at 1043 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 2: that point, if you're just looking at last week's rankings, 1044 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 2: you know that's where if SMU loses the ACC Championship game, 1045 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 2: could they be in and then after that, j Mart, 1046 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 2: I'll say it. I mocked the idea of a three 1047 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:40,359 Speaker 2: loss SEC team getting in. I don't think with the 1048 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,319 Speaker 2: way my with Miami losing today. I mean, listen, is 1049 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 2: Miami a factor at ten and two with two losses 1050 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,880 Speaker 2: to you know, what's Miami's best win? Probably a seven 1051 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 2: and five Florida team. So I that's the spot, the 1052 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:58,080 Speaker 2: twelfth spot, which obviously might not necessarily be the twelve 1053 00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 2: seed depending on how things breakout. That's where it gets interesting. 1054 00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 2: I unless I'm missing somebody, I think there's a scenario 1055 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 2: where I think there's a scenario where that three loss 1056 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 2: SEC team gets in, maybe SMU if they lose the 1057 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:17,000 Speaker 2: ACC Championship game. Am I miss First of all, am 1058 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 2: I missing anybody? And then if not, do. 1059 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 3: We talk about Arizona State? 1060 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 2: Well, Arizona State is in the Big twelve Championship game, 1061 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 2: So if they were to lose the Big twelve Championship 1062 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 2: game to not get the auto bid, they'd be ten 1063 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:32,439 Speaker 2: and three. They'd have a win over BYU, which looks 1064 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 2: like a top twenty five win. I don't know that 1065 00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:37,760 Speaker 2: they'd have any other great wins outside of that, though. 1066 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,080 Speaker 3: Well, I mean I think they'd have to win that game, 1067 00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 3: but I think that they'll they'll be a factor. You 1068 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 3: beat Clemson, South Carolina's back in the argument, yep. So 1069 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 3: I mean that that last minute and a half when 1070 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:54,240 Speaker 3: they came back and won that game at Death Valley. 1071 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 3: That's a team that is within a couple of just 1072 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 3: rough finishes from having a reddible season and us not 1073 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 3: even having a discussion about them because they're obviously in. 1074 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 3: But I kind of look at them and think that 1075 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 3: they're I think there's a good chance they're going to 1076 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,359 Speaker 3: be in the top twelve on Tuesday when they put 1077 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 3: out the rankings. We'll see what all changes when you 1078 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,439 Speaker 3: get to the conference championship games and who gets bumped out, 1079 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 3: and you know all of those things. But I think 1080 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 3: that I think that South Carolina is likely to be 1081 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 3: you know, that number eleven, that number twelve team come Tuesday. 1082 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:33,839 Speaker 2: It'd be so fascinating. They are coming into next week 1083 00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:35,840 Speaker 2: where they will be off there not in a conference 1084 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 2: championship game. They're on a six game win streak. Their 1085 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 2: losses to Ole Miss, Alabama and LSU so three losses 1086 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 2: to ranked teams, two of them by a field goal 1087 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 2: or less. One of them where they're starting quarterback Lenora 1088 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 2: Sellers got hurt against LSU. Yeah, like I said, I 1089 00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 2: mocked the idea of a three loss SEC team getting in. 1090 00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 2: I would have no issue if if if South Carolina 1091 00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 2: was that eleven seed based on again beating Clemson head 1092 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:04,839 Speaker 2: to head. To your point, that's a top twenty win. 1093 00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:09,320 Speaker 2: Miami losing things like that where it would get interesting. 1094 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:12,360 Speaker 2: Of course, Lane Kiffin, who very publicly this week was 1095 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:14,480 Speaker 2: not afraid to tell us how awesome the SEC is 1096 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 2: and how terrible everybody else is. Ole Miss has a 1097 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 2: head to head win over South Carolina. Alabama has a 1098 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 2: head to head win over South Carolina. So I'm not 1099 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 2: saying you're wrong. I'm just saying these are going to 1100 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,840 Speaker 2: be the arguments because I think there's not an obvious 1101 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 2: team for that final at large bid. I think South 1102 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 2: Carolina has as good of an argument as anybody, but 1103 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,479 Speaker 2: there are also holes on their resume as well, namely 1104 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 2: head to head wins with two tier headhead losses with 1105 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 2: two teams that are probably going to probably going to 1106 00:56:43,120 --> 00:56:43,839 Speaker 2: be in the mix there. 1107 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:45,840 Speaker 3: I agree, I mean, I just I think it's interesting 1108 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 3: that they're in this discussion because the three loss teams 1109 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 3: that we were potentially talking about in the SEC All 1110 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:56,960 Speaker 3: of a sudden, out of nowhere, he comes South Carolina, 1111 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:58,840 Speaker 3: and they might have the most compelling case. At the 1112 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 3: very least. I wanted to mention in them because I 1113 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,800 Speaker 3: think they're gonna be the talk, even though you're gonna 1114 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 3: hear campaigning for some of those more blue bloody types. 1115 00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 3: I think the South Carolina deserves to be talked about 1116 00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 3: now because they are going to be discussed in that room. 1117 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 3: I can guarantee you that, and I do again, I 1118 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 3: do think they will likely be in the top twelve 1119 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 3: come Tuesday. 1120 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 2: Fair enough. By the way, let's see here, what is 1121 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:27,440 Speaker 2: the name here? I want to give this guy credit. 1122 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:33,120 Speaker 2: Preller Forever says Torres and Martin. You're forgetting about Boise State. 1123 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 3: Why don't think well, I thought we mentioned boys. 1124 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's five auto bids, and right now Boise State 1125 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 2: is in position to get one of them. I'm looking 1126 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 2: at the schedule right now, I don't really see a 1127 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 2: pathway where if they don't win the Mountain West Tournament 1128 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 2: they'll face UNLV for a second time. UNLV is currently 1129 00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 2: ranked in the top twenty five. They do have a 1130 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 2: win over them earlier in the season. I listen to 1131 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 2: be a cool story, but I don't really see the 1132 00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 2: pathway for Boise to get an a large bid if 1133 00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 2: if they if. 1134 00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 3: They win, they'll probably be the four right right now? 1135 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's I think they're ahead of They're 1136 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,560 Speaker 2: ahead of everybody in the Big Twelve. Now, whoever plays 1137 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,840 Speaker 2: in the Big Twelve championship game will get another head 1138 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 2: to head win over a top twenty five team because 1139 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:18,600 Speaker 2: all four of those teams are in. But yeah, I 1140 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:22,600 Speaker 2: would think Boise probably would maybe get that that last 1141 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 2: at large spot. Now, i'd or that that last first 1142 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:29,120 Speaker 2: round by now not positive, you know, committee obviously, bran bias, 1143 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 2: all that stuff, But yeah, I think that's the playoff picture. 1144 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 2: We mentioned it a minute ago. But the five conference champs, 1145 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 2: which will almost certainly be the SEC, the Big Ten, 1146 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 2: the ACC, the Big Twelve in the Mountain West, the 1147 00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:45,320 Speaker 2: SEC and Big Ten championship game losers should get in 1148 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,520 Speaker 2: is at large. That would either be Oregon Penn State 1149 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 2: or uh that would be Oregon Penn State or Texas Georgia. 1150 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,000 Speaker 2: I think Notre Dame gets in a large bid. I 1151 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 2: think Tennessee gets in that large bit. I think Indiana 1152 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 2: gets in that large bit.

We went and saw Sanna the 1175 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 3: day before Thanksgiving, took the pictures, did the whole thing. 1176 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:09,400 Speaker 3: Hers looks like a hostage photo. It's pretty funny, sure, 1177 01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 3: but anyway, she told Santa she wanted a hippopotamus, a 1178 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:18,439 Speaker 3: purple hippopota whoa for Christmas song before in her life, 1179 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 3: She's never heard this song. 1180 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:22,760 Speaker 2: You have to play for her. Sure, she's not listening 1181 01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 2: to Fox Sports Radio when you're not paying attention. 1182 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 3: Let's just say I spoke to Santa. Oh okay, I 1183 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:29,600 Speaker 3: think we can get this taken care of. 1184 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:30,320 Speaker 2: That's good. 1185 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 3: But at first I was just like a purple hippopotamus. 1186 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 2: She doesn't want a real one, right, like when a 1187 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:35,960 Speaker 2: kid asked for a pony or a puppy. 1188 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,440 Speaker 3: You're dangerous, very very dangerous. 1189 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 7: I have a purple hippopotamus, do you I'm being so serious. 1190 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,920 Speaker 7: I do a real one, well, not real stuffed animals. 1191 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:46,440 Speaker 7: Be like, how big is the tank you got in 1192 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 7: your house? I know you were living like that? 1193 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 3: Nah? Seriously, Like I talked to Santa, I think we 1194 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 3: can get it taken care of. But when she said purple. 1195 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 3: I was just like, okay, and then so I googled 1196 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 3: for Santa just to see, you know, could I help 1197 01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 3: him out because it seemed kind of like an odd request. 1198 01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:05,120 Speaker 3: Turns out not odd at all. It turns out there 1199 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 3: are a plethora of hippopotamus. 1200 01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 2: Hippopotay, hippopota. I think it's hippopotami. 1201 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 3: Hippopotami is probably more right. Yeah, even though I kind 1202 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 3: of think hippopotamus is is better. Uh, there are a 1203 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 3: lot of them. I think it's just I was able 1204 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:28,320 Speaker 3: to send Santa a couple of selections. I think if 1205 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 3: you can get the l's to handle, one of these 1206 01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 3: will probably be in good shape. I was a little 1207 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 3: afraid that Santa might not be able to pull this 1208 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 3: one off, but I think maybe he's gonna be. Okay. 1209 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,640 Speaker 2: Well, that's fantastic. It's also nice to know that your 1210 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 2: your daughter's listening to our show in our intro music. 1211 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 2: So all right, Fox Sports, Rady, I'll tell you what. 1212 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, she said, Ryan Day should be fired. 1213 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:52,080 Speaker 2: By the way, whoa coming in hot?

My friend. 1217 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 6: Blindsided by the hippopotamus request to Santa, doubly blindsided by 1218 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 6: the Ryan Day reference that she had to Santa. 1219 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:11,840 Speaker 3: Yes, she's wise beyond her years. 1220 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 2: I know you're in albent. What if she's just a 1221 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 2: closet Ohio State fan and this is all she wants. 1222 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,920 Speaker 2: She's like, guys, gotta go guys. Kataka. 1223 01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 6: By the way, the dictionaries plural do say that either 1224 01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 6: for the plural for hippopotamus is correct. 1225 01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 2: Which is what hippopot may or hippopotamuses. 1226 01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 6: Oh yes, exactly good, because I think what the song says. 1227 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 6: But either is okay. You can also just say hippos Hey, 1228 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 6: how about that true hungry hungry. She's gonna ask for 1229 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 6: that at one of these Christmases too.

As long as there's 1234 01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 6: no upset in this, Iowa State gets in. They are 1235 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:57,800 Speaker 6: BYU fans for the moment. The only way Colorado gets 1236 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 6: into the Big Twelve title game is if BU gets 1237 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 6: upset tonight, why would Iowa State get in? Because if 1238 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 6: BYU continues for a victory, it would finish a four 1239 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,200 Speaker 6: way tie. Two of those four would get in, those 1240 01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:14,960 Speaker 6: two being Iowa State and Arizona State, which is officially 1241 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:18,640 Speaker 6: already in the Big Twelve Championship next weekend.

But it's also worth noting you 1318 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:20,960 Speaker 2: filled in, uh for what two pros on on Thanksgiving 1319 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 2: Day morning? 1320 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:22,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Friday morning? 1321 01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:25,400 Speaker 2: Friday morning, Okay, And so that didn't. 1322 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:28,760 Speaker 3: Eberflus watch well every break coming back, I said, Eberflus 1323 01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:31,720 Speaker 3: is still hired. I told I told Brian No. I 1324 01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 3: was like, hey, Bee, he might lose this job before 1325 01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:37,800 Speaker 3: we get off the air. He didn't. He survived an 1326 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 3: extra two hours. He did. 1327 01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 2: He do his press conference before you got off air, 1328 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 2: where he said. 1329 01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:45,280 Speaker 3: The press conference happened right after we got off air, 1330 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 3: where he said he was safe. 1331 01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:49,080 Speaker 2: Fantastic. Well, that that is first of all, the most 1332 01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:52,960 Speaker 2: Chicago Bears thing ever, letting him go to the podium 1333 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:55,760 Speaker 2: and then firing him after he went to the podium 1334 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:57,360 Speaker 2: and said that he believed that he was safe. 1335 01:07:57,840 --> 01:07:58,160 Speaker 3: It was. 1336 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:00,400 Speaker 2: It was interesting. Dan Byer and I were actually in 1337 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:04,320 Speaker 2: the day after uh Shane Waldron got fired and we 1338 01:08:04,360 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 2: had a guest named John Middlecoff, who brought up a 1339 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 2: great point and said, I've worked in NFL front offices, 1340 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:13,040 Speaker 2: and he said, if you're gonna make that movie, you 1341 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,160 Speaker 2: do it's Sunday into Monday, because obviously then you start 1342 01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:19,000 Speaker 2: game planning for the week. They didn't fire Shane Waldron 1343 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,120 Speaker 2: till Tuesday, so that was obviously a little bit weird. Then, 1344 01:08:22,160 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 2: of course Matt Eberflus does the press conference and then 1345 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 2: gets fired shortly thereafter. Uh J, Mart, I'll say this, 1346 01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 2: You know, I'm only a little bit surprised from the 1347 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 2: perspective that, you know, one, the Bears have never fired 1348 01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 2: a coach in season, but two after you already fired 1349 01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:42,680 Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator. It's like just kind of running out 1350 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:45,720 Speaker 2: of bodies in that building. So I'm a little surprised 1351 01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 2: that the move was made. I don't think it was 1352 01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:50,080 Speaker 2: the wrong decision. I think it was a move that 1353 01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:53,080 Speaker 2: probably should have been made last offseason. It wasn't. But 1354 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 2: Matt Eberflus is gone. One want your just thoughts on 1355 01:08:57,680 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 2: just you know, the news itself. But then two, there's 1356 01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 2: something Dan and I talked about on Thursday before the 1357 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:07,599 Speaker 2: news even became official, which is given their history. Do 1358 01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:09,960 Speaker 2: you actually have any confidence at all that the Bears 1359 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:12,080 Speaker 2: will figure out a way to actually get the right 1360 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 2: coach in, Because I think it's good that they got 1361 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:18,040 Speaker 2: rid of Eberflus a year after they should have, But 1362 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:20,200 Speaker 2: I just have no confidence that they're actually going to 1363 01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:21,720 Speaker 2: get in the right guy to replace him. 1364 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 3: No, I don't either. I mean, the ownership's been terrible 1365 01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 3: for a long time. Ryan Poles will be out the 1366 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:29,839 Speaker 3: door next They don't need to let him make this decision. 1367 01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:33,760 Speaker 3: Eber Flus being backed this year was not something that 1368 01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 3: any of us thought was a good choice when they 1369 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:39,160 Speaker 3: made it, and they did it, And so I told 1370 01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 3: Brian know this Friday, the biggest issue is not only 1371 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:48,240 Speaker 3: did you squander you know, a year of Caleb Williams's career, 1372 01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:53,599 Speaker 3: you also squandered a year of his rookie contract, and 1373 01:09:53,720 --> 01:09:57,120 Speaker 3: that is critically important in this day and age to 1374 01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:59,720 Speaker 3: where you can really build around him. You may have 1375 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,559 Speaker 3: i'm his growth, maybe even set him back a little bit. 1376 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:06,599 Speaker 3: All of it was just it was terrible. I think 1377 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:09,599 Speaker 3: that to the point about like it being a little 1378 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:15,400 Speaker 3: bit surprising after the way he reacted and his comments. Yes, 1379 01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 3: I said this to no on Friday morning. I said, 1380 01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 3: it's almost as if Kevin Warren and the mccaskeys like 1381 01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 3: sat him down, because they talked to him before he 1382 01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:29,720 Speaker 3: went into this press conference, and they let him go 1383 01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:31,720 Speaker 3: talk to the media and they fired him two hours later. 1384 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 3: It's almost like they sat him down right after the 1385 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 3: game on Thursday and said, hey, listen, we're gonna fire you. Okay, 1386 01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 3: you're done. We don't want you to get sympathy. So 1387 01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:48,120 Speaker 3: whatever it is that you can say to just make 1388 01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 3: it so that no one in their right mind would 1389 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:52,880 Speaker 3: think you deserve to keep this job. Make it easy 1390 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:55,760 Speaker 3: on us, Make it easy on you. Just go out 1391 01:10:55,840 --> 01:11:01,880 Speaker 3: and sound so arrogant and naive and sad that there's 1392 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,839 Speaker 3: no other choice. Just make it, make this thing easy. 1393 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,920 Speaker 3: He could not have scripted a worse way to react 1394 01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 3: to this, Like if he had come out there and said, 1395 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 3: you know what I am costing this football team right now. 1396 01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:17,640 Speaker 3: I should have known better. I should have called the 1397 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 3: timeouts help Caleb in this situation, and I did not 1398 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 3: do it. My team played good enough to win this 1399 01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:27,360 Speaker 3: football game today and I cost him this. Maybe you 1400 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:29,840 Speaker 3: get sympathy, maybe you even get another week or two. 1401 01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe he was already a dead man walking. 1402 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:34,439 Speaker 3: I think he was. But at the same time, I 1403 01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:36,320 Speaker 3: don't know that it goes this way. But you come 1404 01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,160 Speaker 3: out there and you essentially throw your team under the bus, 1405 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:43,040 Speaker 3: and then you double down and say that you know 1406 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:45,920 Speaker 3: you had everything set up right. Was one of the 1407 01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:49,080 Speaker 3: most tone deaf, ignorant things that you possibly could have 1408 01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,400 Speaker 3: said in that moment, because it's like, we had you know, 1409 01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 3: here's what we wanted to do, and I really like it. 1410 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:55,960 Speaker 3: We just need to execute it better. It's like, okay, 1411 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,160 Speaker 3: so he's not calling the timeout. He's not calling the timeout. 1412 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,839 Speaker 3: Caleb's not snapping the ball, he's not snapping and instead 1413 01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:03,880 Speaker 3: of just calling the time out to help your quarterback, 1414 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:06,200 Speaker 3: you just stood there as if it was illegal for 1415 01:12:06,240 --> 01:12:07,720 Speaker 3: you to do it, like you had to call it 1416 01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 3: in ahead of time and say here's our play call, 1417 01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 3: and then it didn't work. Well, I guess we're just 1418 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,040 Speaker 3: gonna have to lose. I'm not gonna be able to 1419 01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,720 Speaker 3: call it like that. I was baffled by it. In 1420 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:18,920 Speaker 3: a moment. You were baffled by it. Dam Buyer was 1421 01:12:18,960 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 3: baffled by it. Tim Patrick, that's a Lyon's wide receiver 1422 01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 3: was baffled by it. In your interview with him right 1423 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 3: before you came to me, we were all baffled by it. 1424 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:33,080 Speaker 3: And then Eberflus afterwards it was just like oh, man, 1425 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:34,880 Speaker 3: Like listening to him, it's like, all right, yeah, you 1426 01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 3: got to go, man, And it's almost like, you know, 1427 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,680 Speaker 3: you got to go, like you're just trying to make 1428 01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:40,960 Speaker 3: it easier, you're trying to get fired or something like. 1429 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:44,479 Speaker 3: This was insane. And I don't know if I made 1430 01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:45,880 Speaker 3: this point to you or I made it to know 1431 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:48,559 Speaker 3: on Friday, but I said, notice, this kind of stuff 1432 01:12:48,560 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 3: doesn't happen to the Chiefs. What goes the other way 1433 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:54,839 Speaker 3: for the Chiefs or the Steelers for years, or certainly 1434 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 3: the Patriots during their dynasty. And everybody wants to say, oh, 1435 01:12:57,280 --> 01:13:02,400 Speaker 3: they get so lucky. Listen, teams that are put in 1436 01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:05,120 Speaker 3: positions to succeed tend to have breaks together their way. 1437 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:08,360 Speaker 3: They just do. Like teams that have good organization, good coaching, 1438 01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:14,759 Speaker 3: make good decisions, stay within themselves, and handle the details properly. 1439 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:19,280 Speaker 3: Those are the people that succeed me. I was terrible 1440 01:13:19,280 --> 01:13:21,160 Speaker 3: in math. My wife was excellent in it. So why 1441 01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 3: she's a doctor and I'm talking to you, and you 1442 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:27,599 Speaker 3: think about it all. My parents used to just beat 1443 01:13:27,640 --> 01:13:29,320 Speaker 3: me over the head with this. I would come home 1444 01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:31,400 Speaker 3: with like a sixty or sixty five in math while 1445 01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:34,800 Speaker 3: I was getting hundreds and everything else. And it was 1446 01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,599 Speaker 3: because I missed one Line's now because I didn't understand math. 1447 01:13:37,800 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 3: It's because I was careless. I missed the little details, 1448 01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 3: details like block kicks, not calling timeouts properly, all of 1449 01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:49,240 Speaker 3: these things. And you know what happened. I got sixties. 1450 01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 3: I ended up having to repeat algebra two and take 1451 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:55,640 Speaker 3: a summer course, even though everything else on my transcript 1452 01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,320 Speaker 3: was perfect. And it was because I was careless. It's 1453 01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 3: because I blew the details. That's what Matt Abralfols did. 1454 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,000 Speaker 3: He was careless. He blew the details. He had no 1455 01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 3: accountability after the fact, and he had to go and 1456 01:14:08,040 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 3: the Bears had better get this right. And as you said, 1457 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 3: I have no idea. 1458 01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:14,679 Speaker 2: Whether or not they're capable of that, no idea whether 1459 01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 2: or not they're capable. By the way, I had kind 1460 01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:18,880 Speaker 2: of a pretty similar reaction. It was funny when we 1461 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 2: were talking when we heard the audio from the post 1462 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,240 Speaker 2: game where he basically said we basically handled it the 1463 01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 2: right way. Dan Bayer said, you know that's you know, 1464 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:32,920 Speaker 2: interviewing for a future job where you're you know, you 1465 01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,360 Speaker 2: didn't throw your team under the bus whatever, blah blah blah. 1466 01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 2: And I said the exact same thing to Dan. I said, 1467 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,519 Speaker 2: after hearing it a second time, I said, I would rather. 1468 01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:44,200 Speaker 2: I actually think it makes him less hirable because he 1469 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:47,160 Speaker 2: basically did not acknowledge everything that he did wrong. Where 1470 01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:49,840 Speaker 2: if he just said, yeah, that's on me, it falls 1471 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:52,040 Speaker 2: on me. We practice this all the time. We were 1472 01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:54,400 Speaker 2: not prepared, we were not ready to go. I think 1473 01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 2: that sounds a lot better. Ultimately, it doesn't matter he 1474 01:14:57,439 --> 01:14:59,800 Speaker 2: is no longer the head coach. This to me will 1475 01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:02,760 Speaker 2: be I think, the most fascinating job opening of the 1476 01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:06,160 Speaker 2: offseason unless something truly shocking happens, Maybe even more so 1477 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:11,719 Speaker 2: than the Cowboys, because obviously Caleb Williams is such a bright, 1478 01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:15,679 Speaker 2: young talent, but hopefully the Bears put him in position 1479 01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:18,679 Speaker 2: to succeed. Fox Sports Radio er towards Jason Martin, broadcasting 1480 01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:21,200 Speaker 2: live from the Tirec dot Com studios, will come back 1481 01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:24,559 Speaker 2: to Sager's extended update.

Those two schools, Iowa State and ASU 1495 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:09,880 Speaker 6: were each winners on this Saturday. There are two other 1496 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:12,759 Speaker 6: late games going to the fourth quarter. Air Force leads 1497 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:16,120 Speaker 6: at San Diego State thirty one fourteen. The Aztecs apparently 1498 01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:19,000 Speaker 6: will finish three to nine this year, but at least 1499 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:21,799 Speaker 6: their field isn't coming up in chunks like other home games. 1500 01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:23,360 Speaker 2: On to the third quarter. 1501 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:25,960 Speaker 6: At Hawaii that is the late game home team leads 1502 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:28,799 Speaker 6: twenty one to nine at the break.

TCU got to 1505 01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:39,600 Speaker 6: win at Cincinnati. Apparently that's what actually formally clinched the 1506 01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:42,680 Speaker 6: ASU spot in the Big Ten championship game. There are 1507 01:16:42,720 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 6: so many tie breakers down the standings, that's what did it. 1508 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 6: Texas Tech fifty two fifteen over West Virginia today.

This is like one of those NFL 1526 01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:44,559 Speaker 6: scenarios where they just played each other in the final 1527 01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 6: week of the regular season.

Michigan with 1553 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:17,400 Speaker 6: just sixty two yards passing and beat its rival as 1554 01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:20,639 Speaker 6: Ohio State on the ground as a teaching crazy twenty 1555 01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:23,400 Speaker 6: six carries just seventy seven yards rushing for the buck 1556 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:27,160 Speaker 6: guys who missed field goal attempts of thirty eight and 1557 01:19:27,280 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 6: thirty four yards and lose to a Michigan team that 1558 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 6: finishes seven and five. 1559 01:19:32,360 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Steve de Sager, Fox Sports Radio, 1560 01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:37,720 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Saturday and the Sunday or towards Jason Martin 1561 01:19:37,760 --> 01:19:42,479 Speaker 2: broadcasting live from thesiak dot com studios.

We kind of called it a front. Well, 1580 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:47,800 Speaker 2: it was Dan's idea. I don't want to say we 1581 01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:49,479 Speaker 2: because I had nothing to do with it, but it 1582 01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:51,400 Speaker 2: was a great idea by Dan. We called it friends 1583 01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:54,800 Speaker 2: Giving brought on Bernie, of course, after the Lions game. 1584 01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:58,800 Speaker 2: Bernie covered a million Lions Thanksgiving Day games and kind 1585 01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:02,759 Speaker 2: of in passing, I said, Bernie, give me the sell 1586 01:21:02,960 --> 01:21:05,720 Speaker 2: on how Michigan can beat Ohio State. You know that 1587 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:08,959 Speaker 2: program as well as anybody. He said, Aaron, I appreciate 1588 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:12,920 Speaker 2: you asking. I just don't see it. And that is 1589 01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:15,559 Speaker 2: not a criticism of Bernie because I did not see 1590 01:21:15,600 --> 01:21:16,000 Speaker 2: it come in. 1591 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:18,240 Speaker 3: Jay Bart as a twenty point spread. 1592 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, listen, I want to get into this, 1593 01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:25,960 Speaker 2: but it was like you and I, I think, have 1594 01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:28,560 Speaker 2: been as critical of Ryan Day as really anybody in 1595 01:21:28,600 --> 01:21:31,839 Speaker 2: the national media. I just never bought this. Always fifty 1596 01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:35,439 Speaker 2: nine and seven. It's like, yeah, but you never beat Michigan, 1597 01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:40,680 Speaker 2: and you know, you know whatever. As as big of 1598 01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:44,519 Speaker 2: a critic of Ryan Day as I was, this was 1599 01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 2: just so inconceivable coming into today's game. I mean, let's 1600 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:54,000 Speaker 2: just lay out the stats. The defense was obviously pretty 1601 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,559 Speaker 2: good all year, although it's worth noting the past defense 1602 01:21:56,760 --> 01:22:01,439 Speaker 2: wasn't that good. But Michigan was ranked one hundred twenty 1603 01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:04,640 Speaker 2: eighth out of one hundred and thirty four teams in 1604 01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:10,040 Speaker 2: total offense. They were ranked one hundred and twenty eighth 1605 01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:13,360 Speaker 2: out of one hundred and thirty four teams in pass offense. 1606 01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:17,840 Speaker 2: And by the way, the teams behind them, Navy, Air Force, 1607 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:22,880 Speaker 2: Army all r the triple option, Iowa. We know about Iowa. 1608 01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:26,599 Speaker 2: So I mean basically of like teams that even attempt 1609 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 2: to throw the ball. They were basically in last place 1610 01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:36,200 Speaker 2: in college football, and so it was such a I'm 1611 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:41,000 Speaker 2: still in some ways stunned by this. And I'm stunned 1612 01:22:41,040 --> 01:22:44,719 Speaker 2: because Ohio State lost. I'm stunned because of the manner 1613 01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:49,760 Speaker 2: in which it happened, but also I'm stunned because there 1614 01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:54,600 Speaker 2: was such a tangible, obvious way for Ohio State to 1615 01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,719 Speaker 2: take advantage of Michigan. They're down an All American corner, 1616 01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:01,360 Speaker 2: they have the best wide receiver corps maybe in all 1617 01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 2: of college football. And they kept running it. They kept 1618 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 2: running it, they kept running it, and it was just 1619 01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:10,080 Speaker 2: a comedy of errors. Late Will Howard had two interceptions, 1620 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 2: there were two missfield goals. There was the by the way, 1621 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 2: coming out of the two minute timeout, they had to 1622 01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:18,599 Speaker 2: burn a timeout because they had twelve men on the field. 1623 01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:21,840 Speaker 2: That obviously cost them, you know, forty seconds that they 1624 01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 2: could have had at the end of the game. It 1625 01:23:24,160 --> 01:23:27,080 Speaker 2: was a comedy of errors in Ohio State, for a 1626 01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:29,719 Speaker 2: fourth straight year has lost to Michigan. 1627 01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:33,599 Speaker 3: So I was looking this up while you were talking 1628 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:37,759 Speaker 3: just then because it struck me there were only two 1629 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,960 Speaker 3: teams this year that a face Michigan and scored less 1630 01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:50,479 Speaker 3: points than Ohio State did on Saturday, Illinois and or no, 1631 01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 3: not Illinois. I'm sorry, I think I looked at it wrong. 1632 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, Northwestern scored six against this 1633 01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 3: team and that's the only one. As a matter of fact, 1634 01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:08,439 Speaker 3: wow es Feo State scored the same amount. They scored ten. Also, like, 1635 01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:13,679 Speaker 3: what do you want to say here? Like USC put 1636 01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:17,080 Speaker 3: up twenty four on this team, Minnesota put up twenty 1637 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:22,719 Speaker 3: four at the Big House, Washington put up twenty seven 1638 01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:26,880 Speaker 3: against this team, Illinois put up twenty one against this team, 1639 01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:32,679 Speaker 3: Michigan State put up seventeen against this team. Ohio State 1640 01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:37,240 Speaker 3: put up ten. With Jeremiah Smith and all of the 1641 01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 3: talented guys that they have, the skill talented guys, and 1642 01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:44,960 Speaker 3: you had, as you mentioned earlier in the show, Loveland 1643 01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:47,839 Speaker 3: not playing. You have one of their key defensive players 1644 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:51,960 Speaker 3: not playing for Michigan and it's on your home field. 1645 01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:55,240 Speaker 3: You're the number two team in the country. You're coming 1646 01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:58,679 Speaker 3: off that crazy win over Indiana, and you show up 1647 01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:02,120 Speaker 3: like that, and there is no way that's not a 1648 01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 3: reflection to your coach. We understand what the talent is, 1649 01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:09,519 Speaker 3: but a lot of it comes from the vibe coming 1650 01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 3: from the sode. 1651 01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:12,360 Speaker 2: Honey, hey, does real quick? Let me ask you this. 1652 01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 2: You talk about the vibe. I forget if I mentioned 1653 01:25:16,280 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 2: this to you last week. And maybe it's nothing, and 1654 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:23,160 Speaker 2: in the grand scheme of all the conversations about Ohio State, 1655 01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 2: it probably isn't the most important. This is gonna sound 1656 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:29,479 Speaker 2: like such revisionist history. I forget if I mentioned this 1657 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:34,799 Speaker 2: to you last week when Will Howard did the putting 1658 01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:39,760 Speaker 2: out the cigarette celebration. Yeah, I'll be honest. So I 1659 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:41,599 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know if we talked about it. 1660 01:25:41,680 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 2: I didn't tweet anything because you know, they beat a 1661 01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,519 Speaker 2: top five team by whatever. But the Ohio State that 1662 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:52,639 Speaker 2: I grew up on, Urban Meyers, Ohio State, Jim Tressel's 1663 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:55,719 Speaker 2: Ohio State. I don't care if Indiana's in the top 1664 01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:58,280 Speaker 2: five in college football or the bottom five in college football. 1665 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:02,680 Speaker 2: The expectation is that you go in and you destroy Indiana. 1666 01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:05,560 Speaker 2: And it's not even something that you have to acknowledge 1667 01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:09,919 Speaker 2: because it is insinuated that you're going to beat Indiana 1668 01:26:09,960 --> 01:26:12,920 Speaker 2: because they're Indiana and your Ohio State. And I really 1669 01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:16,360 Speaker 2: was like, like, would urban Meyer be fired up? What 1670 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:19,960 Speaker 2: urban Meyer want his players doing that celebration a week 1671 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:23,559 Speaker 2: before Michigan. Maybe it means nothing, Maybe I'm overreacting, maybe 1672 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 2: because they lost this game. But something about that rubbed 1673 01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:29,360 Speaker 2: me the wrong way of like why are you even 1674 01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 2: acknowledging Indiana as a team. I don't know. Take that 1675 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:34,400 Speaker 2: where you want. 1676 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:36,640 Speaker 3: That was my point about what was it? Who was 1677 01:26:36,640 --> 01:26:39,599 Speaker 3: it that stormed the field after beating somebody that went 1678 01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:43,000 Speaker 3: even ranked a couple of weeks ago? A Yeah, like 1679 01:26:43,040 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 3: how far has Auburn fallen that we're seeing this happen 1680 01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,719 Speaker 3: at this point? Like, that's not a thing that should happen. 1681 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,760 Speaker 3: You're right, you should expect to beat Ohio State. Now. 1682 01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 3: The cigarette thing that is indicative of a level of 1683 01:27:00,400 --> 01:27:05,439 Speaker 3: immaturity that doesn't breed. You've been there before, Like I'm 1684 01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:07,400 Speaker 3: gonna give you a weird analogy here, but I used 1685 01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:09,719 Speaker 3: to tell people this and pro wrestling all the time. 1686 01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:12,479 Speaker 3: Whether it was me cutting a promo or whether it 1687 01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:14,960 Speaker 3: was me writing one, or telling somebody to go out 1688 01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:17,840 Speaker 3: there and say something on a various show or whatever 1689 01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:21,080 Speaker 3: like that, I would always tell them because their natural 1690 01:27:21,120 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 3: instinct would be to go out and yell and scream 1691 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:26,800 Speaker 3: at the people and grab the microphone. First off, you 1692 01:27:26,840 --> 01:27:29,679 Speaker 3: have a microphone, so you don't have to scream. But secondly, 1693 01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:33,960 Speaker 3: screaming can be effective, but not if you do it 1694 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:39,439 Speaker 3: all the time. The most effective and sometimes most disturbing things. 1695 01:27:39,479 --> 01:27:41,000 Speaker 3: In this case, if you want to be a villain 1696 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:43,519 Speaker 3: and you want to get something across, you don't have 1697 01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 3: to yell at me. Just say it directly to my 1698 01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:49,000 Speaker 3: face in a measured tone that gives off confidence. Right, 1699 01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:53,800 Speaker 3: so you're gonna tell me you know you're gonna destroy me, 1700 01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:56,200 Speaker 3: blah blah blah. You can yell on my face, But 1701 01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 3: what to me is more effective is when you sit 1702 01:27:59,240 --> 01:28:01,639 Speaker 3: there a foot for my face and you say I'm 1703 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 3: gonna beat you in front of your wife and in 1704 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:06,960 Speaker 3: front of your children. Yep, I'm gonna take your title 1705 01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:09,800 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna walk out of this building and you're 1706 01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 3: never gonna be the same. And if you win a 1707 01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:17,639 Speaker 3: game like you win against Indiana, and you just walk 1708 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:20,120 Speaker 3: off the field. You've made a statement. 1709 01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:21,840 Speaker 2: Bingo, And that's not. 1710 01:28:21,920 --> 01:28:24,519 Speaker 3: What you do when you do the celebrations and the 1711 01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:27,600 Speaker 3: craziness and all that, like you don't ever see this. 1712 01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:31,559 Speaker 3: It would almost be like a gimmick at this point. 1713 01:28:31,600 --> 01:28:35,840 Speaker 3: But I would love to see a coach that started 1714 01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:40,400 Speaker 3: a tradition that after a game there was no emotion shown. 1715 01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:44,000 Speaker 3: The emotion could be behind closed doors. You can get 1716 01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:46,760 Speaker 3: all excited and everything like that, but after you beat 1717 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:48,880 Speaker 3: a team, you go and you shake their hands and 1718 01:28:48,920 --> 01:28:51,320 Speaker 3: then you turn around and you just walk off their field. 1719 01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:53,760 Speaker 2: As Alabama and her Nick Saban, right, you exactly what, 1720 01:28:54,280 --> 01:28:55,160 Speaker 2: we don't need all this. 1721 01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:59,519 Speaker 3: You don't need this, and so doing that reflects a 1722 01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:04,439 Speaker 3: scent of I call it immaturity, but it's more it's 1723 01:29:04,560 --> 01:29:08,160 Speaker 3: just kind of like there's something there when you see it, 1724 01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:12,040 Speaker 3: and you're just like, that's beneath. I agree, you should 1725 01:29:12,040 --> 01:29:17,760 Speaker 3: be at this program because this is Indiana, Like as 1726 01:29:17,800 --> 01:29:20,320 Speaker 3: good as that, this is a great season for Indiana, 1727 01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:24,240 Speaker 3: but you should walk in and beat them by forty 1728 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:28,320 Speaker 3: because you're Ohio State and beating them and then turning 1729 01:29:28,360 --> 01:29:29,679 Speaker 3: around and just walking off the field. 1730 01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:29,800 Speaker 2: Man. 1731 01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:32,760 Speaker 3: They had a great season with their butt though. Then 1732 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:36,639 Speaker 3: you know, but let everybody else talk about how dominant 1733 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:40,000 Speaker 3: you were you doing that just reflects something that I 1734 01:29:40,040 --> 01:29:43,560 Speaker 3: think gives off the wrong vibe. And it also indicates 1735 01:29:43,600 --> 01:29:45,280 Speaker 3: the kind of stuff that you saw here. There's just 1736 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:48,400 Speaker 3: there's a lack of something. There's a lack of moxie, 1737 01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:52,679 Speaker 3: there's a lack of poise, there's a lack of that 1738 01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:57,320 Speaker 3: like killer mentality that actually puts fear into another team 1739 01:29:57,360 --> 01:30:00,280 Speaker 3: when they see you standing against them. And I think 1740 01:30:00,320 --> 01:30:02,920 Speaker 3: that is a direct reflection of Ryan Day, because there 1741 01:30:02,960 --> 01:30:07,640 Speaker 3: is nothing about Ryan Day's temperament that makes me afraid 1742 01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 3: if I'm on the other side. 1743 01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:12,720 Speaker 2: Bingo really quickly. By the way, keeping everybody updated on 1744 01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 2: the late game, by you up twenty four to eighteen. 1745 01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,799 Speaker 2: BYU does have the ball eight minutes left in that game. 1746 01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:22,960 Speaker 2: If BYU wins this game, Iowa State goes to the 1747 01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:26,439 Speaker 2: Big twelve title game. If b WHYU loses, Colorado will 1748 01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:29,320 Speaker 2: play Arizona State. Arizona State has already clinched a spot 1749 01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:34,679 Speaker 2: really quickly. Bigger picture Ryan Day's future, you mentioned it earlier. 1750 01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:37,960 Speaker 2: You talked about a guy in our profession named Ari Wasserman, 1751 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,599 Speaker 2: who covered Ohio State for a number of years now 1752 01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 2: works for the Athletic basically said that his understanding of 1753 01:30:44,120 --> 01:30:48,519 Speaker 2: the athletic department ryan Day worth noting thirty seven ish 1754 01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:54,439 Speaker 2: million dollar buyout. Basically, what Ari Wasserman said was he 1755 01:30:54,479 --> 01:30:58,000 Speaker 2: doesn't see Ohio State firing Ryan Day, and he doesn't 1756 01:30:58,040 --> 01:31:01,120 Speaker 2: see Ryan Day walking out the you know, not just 1757 01:31:01,240 --> 01:31:04,200 Speaker 2: walking out and quitting, but looking for another job, be 1758 01:31:04,280 --> 01:31:06,719 Speaker 2: it in the NFL, another college, heuch, coaching job, whatever. 1759 01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:10,719 Speaker 2: So I guess two part question is do you believe 1760 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:13,120 Speaker 2: it's possible he could be fired? And then to take 1761 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:16,000 Speaker 2: it a step further, if Ohio State isn't going to 1762 01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:18,600 Speaker 2: fire him, do you believe there's a possibility that he 1763 01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:22,200 Speaker 2: could try to look for another job because the heat 1764 01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:25,360 Speaker 2: is obviously on for him with that program. 1765 01:31:25,800 --> 01:31:27,800 Speaker 3: So Or even admitted also he's like, you know, I've 1766 01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:30,400 Speaker 3: known this man for ten years, I know him very well, 1767 01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 3: and I do think that influence is something. But I 1768 01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:36,479 Speaker 3: think it's more likely he leaves than he is fired. 1769 01:31:36,680 --> 01:31:38,559 Speaker 3: I do think that I just think that like this 1770 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 3: blanket idea, that there's no way they'd move on from him, 1771 01:31:42,640 --> 01:31:45,920 Speaker 3: that strikes me as a bridge too far. Now, if 1772 01:31:45,920 --> 01:31:48,760 Speaker 3: they if they go and win the championship, yes, if 1773 01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:51,000 Speaker 3: they make it to the final, yes, they get beaten 1774 01:31:51,040 --> 01:31:55,080 Speaker 3: the first round, even on the road, you know, and 1775 01:31:55,160 --> 01:31:58,240 Speaker 3: they shouldn't, but they certainly can. If you could lose 1776 01:31:58,280 --> 01:32:00,920 Speaker 3: to you shouldn't lose to Michigan. But you lost to 1777 01:32:00,960 --> 01:32:04,200 Speaker 3: Michigan in this case. But I do think that and 1778 01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:06,920 Speaker 3: this whole like, you know, Ryan Days a super competitive 1779 01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:08,640 Speaker 3: guy and all this kind of stuff, even though it 1780 01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:12,519 Speaker 3: doesn't tend to reflect against Michigan for whatever reason, I 1781 01:32:12,680 --> 01:32:16,160 Speaker 3: just kind of I could see him having enough of this. 1782 01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:20,040 Speaker 3: He feels like, I'm sure I've had a ton of success, 1783 01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:24,800 Speaker 3: and yet it's never enough. And if you're gonna spend 1784 01:32:24,840 --> 01:32:27,360 Speaker 3: twenty million dollars and you're gonna bring in chip Kelly 1785 01:32:27,760 --> 01:32:30,479 Speaker 3: and this is what you get out of that, where 1786 01:32:30,520 --> 01:32:33,599 Speaker 3: do you go from here? I don't know that that. 1787 01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:35,600 Speaker 3: That's the thing is like, is the juice worth the 1788 01:32:35,600 --> 01:32:38,439 Speaker 3: squeeze anymore? When it comes to do I want to 1789 01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:42,200 Speaker 3: go through this for another year? Listening to them having 1790 01:32:42,240 --> 01:32:44,040 Speaker 3: all the signs at the Big House, with the number 1791 01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:47,519 Speaker 3: of days it's been since Ohio State beat Michigan when 1792 01:32:47,800 --> 01:32:49,840 Speaker 3: you know that was not a thing for years and 1793 01:32:49,960 --> 01:32:53,559 Speaker 3: years and years pretty much until this last stretch, which 1794 01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:57,680 Speaker 3: happens to have been my entire tenure, and that I 1795 01:32:57,680 --> 01:33:00,000 Speaker 3: could see that. I think it's more likely he leaves 1796 01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:02,559 Speaker 3: then he's let go. But I also think that it's 1797 01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:08,760 Speaker 3: certainly possible that they look elsewhere, especially if the right 1798 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:13,040 Speaker 3: candidate comes calling or answers their phone call. And you know, 1799 01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:15,400 Speaker 3: Mike Vrabel is certainly a name you're gonna hear. 1800 01:33:15,680 --> 01:33:18,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike Vrabel, a former Ohiuse state player and also 1801 01:33:19,280 --> 01:33:22,640 Speaker 2: a former Ohiuse State assistant under Urban Meyer. With the 1802 01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:26,320 Speaker 2: Ryan Day future stuff, so I'm sort of in agreement 1803 01:33:26,360 --> 01:33:28,920 Speaker 2: with you. Is is, first of all, there's the Ryan 1804 01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:33,280 Speaker 2: Day quality of life element to this. And listen, it's 1805 01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:36,000 Speaker 2: not just Ryan Day. He's got kids, he's got a wife. 1806 01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:40,479 Speaker 2: You know, listen, you don't know what's true and what's not. 1807 01:33:40,680 --> 01:33:42,719 Speaker 2: I saw something online. I don't know if it's true 1808 01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:44,400 Speaker 2: that his address got posted. 1809 01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:46,679 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, like, that's horrible. If that's true, 1810 01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:50,599 Speaker 3: that's utterly ridiculous and comply unacceptable. 1811 01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:52,000 Speaker 2: Of course, and we all agree on that, but it 1812 01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:54,880 Speaker 2: doesn't change the fact that this is the job that 1813 01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:57,880 Speaker 2: you did sign up for, but it also comes with 1814 01:33:57,920 --> 01:34:00,120 Speaker 2: a lot of benefits but a lot of drawbacks as well. 1815 01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:03,000 Speaker 2: There are very few jobs where it's like you're expected 1816 01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:04,760 Speaker 2: to win every game. You have to win every game. 1817 01:34:04,800 --> 01:34:07,719 Speaker 2: And to your point, J Mart, here's the other crazy 1818 01:34:07,720 --> 01:34:11,320 Speaker 2: part to think about. Like, let's say let's say, first 1819 01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:13,120 Speaker 2: of all, let's say he comes back. But let's say 1820 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:16,040 Speaker 2: you get to the college football Playoff, you win a game, 1821 01:34:16,479 --> 01:34:18,680 Speaker 2: and then you lose on a neutral site. You're the 1822 01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:21,439 Speaker 2: seventh seed, you lose to Texas in the second round. Okay, 1823 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:25,200 Speaker 2: So now, first of all, next year, so you lose 1824 01:34:26,040 --> 01:34:31,400 Speaker 2: on New Year's Day to Texas, and now your entire 1825 01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:36,680 Speaker 2: season becomes defined by can you beat Michigan in you know, 1826 01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:39,599 Speaker 2: eleven months from now, and maybe you're eleven and zero, 1827 01:34:39,680 --> 01:34:41,639 Speaker 2: maybe you're ten and one like you are this year. 1828 01:34:41,680 --> 01:34:44,400 Speaker 2: It really doesn't matter though, By the way, here's my question. 1829 01:34:45,280 --> 01:34:49,120 Speaker 2: Even if you beat Michigan, is there like like our 1830 01:34:49,280 --> 01:34:52,160 Speaker 2: fans all of a sudden, like, wow, you know, the 1831 01:34:52,240 --> 01:34:55,200 Speaker 2: last four years mean nothing. We were wrong about this guy. 1832 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:57,840 Speaker 2: He actually you know. So it's like I think, even 1833 01:34:57,880 --> 01:35:00,639 Speaker 2: if you do the thing that you have been able 1834 01:35:00,720 --> 01:35:05,320 Speaker 2: to do. I don't know that it really appeases anything 1835 01:35:05,360 --> 01:35:07,800 Speaker 2: for anybody. Now listen, if you do the thing that 1836 01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:10,760 Speaker 2: you haven't done, which is win a national championship this year, 1837 01:35:10,760 --> 01:35:13,080 Speaker 2: and we went through the playoff scenarios an hour two. 1838 01:35:13,080 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 2: If you missed it, Ohio State is still going to 1839 01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:17,479 Speaker 2: be in even though they will not play in the 1840 01:35:17,520 --> 01:35:19,320 Speaker 2: Big Ten championship game, and even though they did not 1841 01:35:19,360 --> 01:35:21,080 Speaker 2: be missed, they're still going to be in a twelve 1842 01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:24,960 Speaker 2: team playoff. But I just bring it up because I 1843 01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:27,960 Speaker 2: just think short of a national championship or as you said, 1844 01:35:27,960 --> 01:35:30,479 Speaker 2: maybe even a title game appearance where you upset either 1845 01:35:30,560 --> 01:35:33,640 Speaker 2: Oregon or Texas or somebody along the way, I just 1846 01:35:34,840 --> 01:35:38,840 Speaker 2: I think you're coming back and nobody has confidence that 1847 01:35:38,920 --> 01:35:42,080 Speaker 2: you can do the thing that's necessary, and so like, 1848 01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:44,960 Speaker 2: does he actually get fired? I don't know, But we 1849 01:35:45,040 --> 01:35:47,559 Speaker 2: see this all the time. I mentioned earlier, we saw 1850 01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:50,120 Speaker 2: it with John Caliperry in basketball, where it was just like, 1851 01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 2: your fans don't believe in you. There's nothing you can 1852 01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:57,479 Speaker 2: do for another year in John Caliperry's case, until next 1853 01:35:57,560 --> 01:36:00,400 Speaker 2: year's NCAA tournament. And by the way, even if Perry 1854 01:36:00,439 --> 01:36:03,000 Speaker 2: had come back this year and made like a sweet sixteen. 1855 01:36:03,040 --> 01:36:05,160 Speaker 2: Nobody would be like, oh, Cal's got it back, He's 1856 01:36:05,160 --> 01:36:07,840 Speaker 2: got it all fit. It'd be like, no, we this 1857 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:10,479 Speaker 2: used to be the baseline, lowest expect and it's kind 1858 01:36:10,520 --> 01:36:13,280 Speaker 2: of the same with Michigan again. So I'm kind of rambling, 1859 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:15,479 Speaker 2: But the point I'm trying to make is I agree 1860 01:36:15,479 --> 01:36:18,639 Speaker 2: with you. Listen, what he does in his own personal 1861 01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:21,360 Speaker 2: life is completely up to him. If I was him, 1862 01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:25,160 Speaker 2: I would be looking for something else. And I don't 1863 01:36:25,200 --> 01:36:29,160 Speaker 2: know what his endgame is, what his ambitions are. Obviously, 1864 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:31,360 Speaker 2: I think in a perfect world he would have hoped 1865 01:36:31,400 --> 01:36:33,120 Speaker 2: to beat Michigan a bunch and be the head coach 1866 01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:35,639 Speaker 2: at Ohio State for the next twenty years. That doesn't 1867 01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:38,200 Speaker 2: look like it's on the table, And to me, I 1868 01:36:38,240 --> 01:36:40,439 Speaker 2: just think from a quality of life perspective, I think 1869 01:36:40,439 --> 01:36:42,519 Speaker 2: it's something he's at least got to consider, because I 1870 01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:46,439 Speaker 2: just don't know what the upside to coming back is. 1871 01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:50,320 Speaker 2: When you could be eleven to zero through the end 1872 01:36:50,400 --> 01:36:54,040 Speaker 2: of November through Thanksgiving of twenty twenty five and it's 1873 01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:57,479 Speaker 2: gonna mean absolutely nothing until you play your rival again 1874 01:36:57,560 --> 01:36:59,360 Speaker 2: a year from now, that's right. 1875 01:36:59,240 --> 01:37:01,439 Speaker 3: And then and then you will have beaten them once. 1876 01:37:02,560 --> 01:37:04,320 Speaker 3: I think that's the thing is you can't just beat 1877 01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:05,800 Speaker 3: them once. You have to get on a streak of 1878 01:37:05,840 --> 01:37:08,759 Speaker 3: beating them again because that's the expectation of Ohio State. 1879 01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:10,760 Speaker 3: It can't beat tit for tat, especially when they've beaten 1880 01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:14,760 Speaker 3: you four times in a row. You talk about, you know, 1881 01:37:14,880 --> 01:37:17,080 Speaker 3: the benefits that come with the job. There's are a 1882 01:37:17,120 --> 01:37:20,640 Speaker 3: lot of benefits, and you mentioned the costs. Yes, like 1883 01:37:20,760 --> 01:37:22,720 Speaker 3: there's a lot of pressure and there's a lot of 1884 01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:25,559 Speaker 3: stuff that comes with that job that also comes with 1885 01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:28,439 Speaker 3: a giant salary. The reason you have the job is 1886 01:37:28,840 --> 01:37:31,639 Speaker 3: because of that salary. But there's the reason you're paid 1887 01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:34,800 Speaker 3: that much is because of the expectatients. And not only that, 1888 01:37:35,200 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 3: not only do you have that salary, you also have 1889 01:37:37,520 --> 01:37:40,200 Speaker 3: a ton of resources. You spent twenty million dollars on 1890 01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:43,200 Speaker 3: the roster, you spent you know, millions of dollars on 1891 01:37:43,280 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 3: the coaching staff, and you still lost to that football 1892 01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:50,000 Speaker 3: team that you for a year basically set yourself up 1893 01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:52,320 Speaker 3: to make sure you did not lose to and you 1894 01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:55,719 Speaker 3: lost to them again. Ohio State had beaten forty seven 1895 01:37:56,040 --> 01:38:01,400 Speaker 3: straight unranked opponents, and the one that beat them was Michigan, 1896 01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:03,960 Speaker 3: and it was the same Michigan team that they watched 1897 01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:06,360 Speaker 3: win a national championship last year, which had to make 1898 01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:10,320 Speaker 3: them sick at Ohio State and certainly the fan base 1899 01:38:10,360 --> 01:38:12,640 Speaker 3: and all of that. The problem for Ryan Day is 1900 01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:14,920 Speaker 3: you are measured at Ohio State by whether or not 1901 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:18,280 Speaker 3: you beat Michigan and win championships, and he has done neither. 1902 01:38:19,080 --> 01:38:22,040 Speaker 2: He has done neither. By the way, a fourth straight 1903 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:23,960 Speaker 2: year that they will not be playing for a Big 1904 01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:27,360 Speaker 2: Ten title either. There are no divisions obviously the last 1905 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:29,920 Speaker 2: three years Michigan has been in there instead of Ohio State. 1906 01:38:30,000 --> 01:38:33,120 Speaker 2: This year it will be Oregon and Penn State mentioned 1907 01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:35,760 Speaker 2: it a half a second ago. We did do all 1908 01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:39,120 Speaker 2: of the playoff scenario breakdowns an hour two so if 1909 01:38:39,120 --> 01:38:41,439 Speaker 2: you missed any of that, please make sure to check 1910 01:38:41,479 --> 01:38:43,800 Speaker 2: out the podcast.

Timpership and get back. 1939 01:40:24,560 --> 01:40:26,600 Speaker 4: To you, Ian go ahead, all right, Well, four to 1940 01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:30,680 Speaker 4: twenty five Eastern time on CBS, the Philadelphia Eagles are 1941 01:40:30,720 --> 01:40:33,479 Speaker 4: going to Baltimore to take on the Ravens. The spread 1942 01:40:33,520 --> 01:40:35,520 Speaker 4: is only three points in favor of Baltimore. 1943 01:40:35,560 --> 01:40:39,720 Speaker 2: What do we think, j mart First of all, let 1944 01:40:39,800 --> 01:40:44,080 Speaker 2: us be the five thousandth sports talk radio show to 1945 01:40:44,120 --> 01:40:47,880 Speaker 2: talk about. How about these running backs? Huh? Yeah, the 1946 01:40:47,880 --> 01:40:51,240 Speaker 2: whole position was left for dead. Say first of all, 1947 01:40:51,360 --> 01:40:53,120 Speaker 2: say quand your MVP right now at this point of 1948 01:40:53,120 --> 01:40:53,559 Speaker 2: the year. 1949 01:40:56,680 --> 01:40:58,520 Speaker 3: He's got a strong argument. 1950 01:40:58,320 --> 01:41:02,160 Speaker 2: He would be for me because they're like a complete 1951 01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 2: I mean they were a train wreck, like when you 1952 01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:10,960 Speaker 2: talk about most valuable, like he saved that. Like think 1953 01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:14,240 Speaker 2: about where the organization was to end last year. Sirianni's 1954 01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:19,160 Speaker 2: not the guy changes both coordinators. Jalen Hurts regressed from 1955 01:41:19,160 --> 01:41:23,800 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, and it's like, yeah, there are other factors, 1956 01:41:24,400 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 2: but the real factor is just they run the crap 1957 01:41:27,160 --> 01:41:29,679 Speaker 2: out of the ball because of Sakuon Barkley and everyone's 1958 01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:32,720 Speaker 2: gonna keep their jobs, Everyone's gonna get raises. Kellen Moore 1959 01:41:32,800 --> 01:41:35,120 Speaker 2: might get a head coaching job out of this. He's 1960 01:41:35,120 --> 01:41:37,479 Speaker 2: my MVP. It has nothing to do with this game necessarily, 1961 01:41:37,520 --> 01:41:38,760 Speaker 2: but he's my VPS. 1962 01:41:39,080 --> 01:41:40,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I agree, I mean the only thing 1963 01:41:40,840 --> 01:41:43,479 Speaker 3: that I think he certainly got a shot. I also 1964 01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 3: sat here right here in Nashville where I do the 1965 01:41:45,400 --> 01:41:47,559 Speaker 3: show from, and watch Derek Henry rush for over two 1966 01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:50,599 Speaker 3: thousand yards and not be the MVP, true when he 1967 01:41:50,680 --> 01:41:54,679 Speaker 3: was clearly valuable to an insane degree for a team 1968 01:41:54,720 --> 01:41:58,519 Speaker 3: that didn't have nearly the skill talent or another you know, 1969 01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:00,880 Speaker 3: a quarterback that could do as much for him as 1970 01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:03,559 Speaker 3: you know you can get from Jalen Hurts on the ground, 1971 01:42:03,880 --> 01:42:07,080 Speaker 3: although Tannehill's a better passer, But I mean, I definitely 1972 01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:10,400 Speaker 3: could see it. I think that. I mean, you probably 1973 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:13,679 Speaker 3: have the two candidates in this game, right you would 1974 01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:17,719 Speaker 3: think you probably have Lamar and you have Saquon Josh. 1975 01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:20,680 Speaker 3: I mean, is coming off that two hundred that is 1976 01:42:20,920 --> 01:42:24,840 Speaker 3: that just crazy performance in this last game. It being 1977 01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:27,080 Speaker 3: a regular season award, one of those two guys will 1978 01:42:27,120 --> 01:42:29,000 Speaker 3: get my vote. Right now, who do you like it, 1979 01:42:29,120 --> 01:42:33,439 Speaker 3: I'll go that far. Gosh, that's tough because I don't 1980 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:35,559 Speaker 3: like the Ravens defense right now at all. I don't 1981 01:42:35,600 --> 01:42:37,280 Speaker 3: like them on the back end, and I also think 1982 01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:40,040 Speaker 3: that they allow teams to guess what run the football. 1983 01:42:40,360 --> 01:42:43,920 Speaker 3: They're a three point favorite at home, which basically means 1984 01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:47,080 Speaker 3: Vegas as saying kind of pick them in this The 1985 01:42:47,160 --> 01:42:51,120 Speaker 3: Eagles are playing better and they're riding high. And here's 1986 01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:54,360 Speaker 3: the other thing. There's somebody else that I don't trust 1987 01:42:54,439 --> 01:42:58,280 Speaker 3: right now that I would never have ever been able 1988 01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:02,000 Speaker 3: to say this about until this season. Justin Tucker's been 1989 01:43:02,040 --> 01:43:05,800 Speaker 3: bad this year as a field goal kicker. If it 1990 01:43:05,840 --> 01:43:07,920 Speaker 3: comes down to that, I don't know that I trust 1991 01:43:08,040 --> 01:43:13,320 Speaker 3: him in this scenario. I actually think because of the 1992 01:43:13,360 --> 01:43:17,400 Speaker 3: inability of the defense to tackle and stop people from 1993 01:43:18,080 --> 01:43:21,519 Speaker 3: moving the chains, especially on third down, I think Saquon 1994 01:43:21,640 --> 01:43:24,520 Speaker 3: might be the difference here. And I actually like Philadelphia 1995 01:43:24,520 --> 01:43:25,400 Speaker 3: to go on the road and win. 1996 01:43:25,960 --> 01:43:28,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I do two seven straight wins for 1997 01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:32,040 Speaker 2: the Eagles. Listen. I know it's a quick turnaround from 1998 01:43:32,040 --> 01:43:35,360 Speaker 2: a Sunday night game in Los Angeles, but Ravens played 1999 01:43:35,360 --> 01:43:37,559 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles on Mounday nights, so you know, it's 2000 01:43:38,560 --> 01:43:41,320 Speaker 2: not as big of a deal as it would normally be. 2001 01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:43,960 Speaker 2: And the Ravens defense, that's exactly what it is. Is 2002 01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:47,439 Speaker 2: they've they've struggled enough. Saquan has been unbelievable. Give me 2003 01:43:47,479 --> 01:43:49,800 Speaker 2: the Eagles to win this one as well in Baltimore. 2004 01:43:50,920 --> 01:43:52,080 Speaker 3: I so hope it's good. 2005 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:55,640 Speaker 4: Wait, well, with Saquan Lamar, you can also add in 2006 01:43:55,760 --> 01:43:58,960 Speaker 4: Derrick Henry and Jalen Hurts. He's got four MVP candidates 2007 01:43:58,960 --> 01:44:01,479 Speaker 4: in that game. Anyway, next time I think. 2008 01:44:01,320 --> 01:44:03,400 Speaker 3: You got three. I don't think Hurts is I don't 2009 01:44:03,400 --> 01:44:05,240 Speaker 3: think Hurts is an empharecanas be sure? 2010 01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:06,200 Speaker 2: Anyway? 2011 01:44:06,200 --> 01:44:09,040 Speaker 4: Next up San Francisco forty nine Ers. They're traveling to 2012 01:44:09,400 --> 01:44:11,960 Speaker 4: Orchard Park to face the Bills. The Bills are favored 2013 01:44:11,960 --> 01:44:14,240 Speaker 4: by six points at home. Here, what do we think? Oh, 2014 01:44:14,320 --> 01:44:17,240 Speaker 4: that's the same Josh Allen's riding high right now? Sure 2015 01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:22,040 Speaker 4: is Josh Allen getting engaged to Hayley Steinfeld? Good for now? 2016 01:44:22,880 --> 01:44:26,360 Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely? And now here come the forty nine ers. 2017 01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 3: Banged up Rock Perdy, who hasn't played particularly well in 2018 01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:32,519 Speaker 3: the Elements, is going to go play in what is 2019 01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:36,920 Speaker 3: being described as feet of snow. It's gonna be super cold. 2020 01:44:37,439 --> 01:44:40,240 Speaker 3: Nothing looks right for the San Francisco forty nine ers, 2021 01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:44,360 Speaker 3: and they're coming west to east to play. I just 2022 01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:47,519 Speaker 3: this stacks up to me like a statement win for 2023 01:44:47,560 --> 01:44:48,000 Speaker 3: the Bills. 2024 01:44:49,640 --> 01:44:52,439 Speaker 2: It's hard for me to disagree. Bill's also coming off 2025 01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:56,080 Speaker 2: of a bye San Francisco. You know you brought up 2026 01:44:56,080 --> 01:44:58,679 Speaker 2: this point in our pre show kind of chat Jmart 2027 01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:02,479 Speaker 2: with with producer Ian. You know, season's kind of on 2028 01:45:02,520 --> 01:45:05,559 Speaker 2: the line. Lost, lost two straight, sitting at five and 2029 01:45:05,640 --> 01:45:11,280 Speaker 2: six overall. Still have at Miami the Detroit Lions against 2030 01:45:11,280 --> 01:45:13,800 Speaker 2: the Arizona Cardinals, who are of course tied for first 2031 01:45:13,800 --> 01:45:18,519 Speaker 2: place in this division. Yeah. I don't really know what 2032 01:45:18,600 --> 01:45:21,960 Speaker 2: else there really is to say. I think it's it's 2033 01:45:21,960 --> 01:45:26,600 Speaker 2: an interesting matchup in terms of teams and brands. I 2034 01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:30,280 Speaker 2: don't really see the easy pathway, especially brock Party coming 2035 01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:33,880 Speaker 2: off injury, all that of San Francisco winning this game. 2036 01:45:35,920 --> 01:45:39,439 Speaker 2: All right, tell you what, why don't we get it 2037 01:45:39,479 --> 01:45:42,679 Speaker 2: over the news desk? There's plenty to get America caught 2038 01:45:42,760 --> 01:45:47,360 Speaker 2: up on. Steve de Sager, my man, just do whatever 2039 01:45:47,400 --> 01:45:50,160 Speaker 2: you want. Just take us up until two am Eastern 2040 01:45:50,200 --> 01:45:50,680 Speaker 2: if you'd like. 2041 01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:53,840 Speaker 6: We've got three late games in college football Air Force 2042 01:45:53,880 --> 01:45:56,160 Speaker 6: did win at San Diego State thirty one to twenty. 2043 01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:58,840 Speaker 6: Hawaii at home is winning against New Mexico in the 2044 01:45:58,880 --> 01:46:01,960 Speaker 6: third twenty eight to and under three minutes to go. 2045 01:46:02,000 --> 01:46:05,880 Speaker 6: At nineteenth rank BYU, those Cougars leading the Houston Cougars 2046 01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:09,680 Speaker 6: thirty to eighteen at the moment, which means things are 2047 01:46:09,720 --> 01:46:12,400 Speaker 6: looking great for eighteenth ranked Iowa State, which already won 2048 01:46:12,479 --> 01:46:15,559 Speaker 6: at home against Kansas State twenty nine twenty one. Case 2049 01:46:15,560 --> 01:46:19,280 Speaker 6: State had fourteen drives, thirteen first downs this evening, and 2050 01:46:19,320 --> 01:46:22,439 Speaker 6: two fumbles, including one on the first play. Kansas State 2051 01:46:22,479 --> 01:46:25,160 Speaker 6: has lost three of four. They were ranked twenty fourth 2052 01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:28,519 Speaker 6: in the country coming into this one. It's looking like 2053 01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:31,960 Speaker 6: with the BYU win, the Big Twelve standings will finish 2054 01:46:32,280 --> 01:46:36,080 Speaker 6: in a four way tie, which is why with tiebreakers 2055 01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:38,840 Speaker 6: that will send the Cyclones to the Big Twelve championship 2056 01:46:38,840 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 6: game next weekend to face sixteenth ranked Arizona State ten 2057 01:46:42,160 --> 01:46:45,320 Speaker 6: and two asu Wan at Arizona forty nine to seven. 2058 01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:48,360 Speaker 6: Sun Devils had won five straight, led thirty five nothing 2059 01:46:48,400 --> 01:46:51,320 Speaker 6: at the half today Arizona. By the way, the Wildcats 2060 01:46:51,360 --> 01:46:54,840 Speaker 6: went two and seven in conference. You know Aaron Howie went. 2061 01:46:54,960 --> 01:46:56,920 Speaker 6: Arnie's always on the show, and we did this this 2062 01:46:57,000 --> 01:47:01,040 Speaker 6: past week with the holidays. Usually this is the Arizona 2063 01:47:01,080 --> 01:47:04,680 Speaker 6: Wildcats basketball program. It's no, yeah, that's pretty much what 2064 01:47:04,720 --> 01:47:08,400 Speaker 6: they're looking like right now too. Yes, the Arizona basketball team. 2065 01:47:08,439 --> 01:47:11,000 Speaker 6: It's what three or four losses already now, and this 2066 01:47:11,160 --> 01:47:14,559 Speaker 6: is always the Arizona football program. It says, yeah, those well, 2067 01:47:14,720 --> 01:47:17,920 Speaker 6: just like you gone right, Oh my goodness. 2068 01:47:17,760 --> 01:47:18,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was tough week. 2069 01:47:19,040 --> 01:47:21,640 Speaker 6: We were gonna make it through the whole show without. 2070 01:47:21,320 --> 01:47:23,360 Speaker 2: That care of Maryland Eastern Shore today. 2071 01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:26,200 Speaker 3: So that's all right, back on the trail. 2072 01:47:26,320 --> 01:47:29,840 Speaker 2: They got Baylor coming in on Tuesday. Listen, they're either 2073 01:47:29,880 --> 01:47:31,880 Speaker 2: gonna get right and everyone will forget about it. By 2074 01:47:31,920 --> 01:47:33,800 Speaker 2: the way, since we got an extra minute or two, 2075 01:47:34,800 --> 01:47:37,759 Speaker 2: are you guys as fake outrage by Dan Hurley yelling 2076 01:47:37,760 --> 01:47:40,479 Speaker 2: at refs as everybody else? Am I the only one 2077 01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:42,599 Speaker 2: that's like this is who this guy's always been? 2078 01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:44,400 Speaker 6: I mean generally or just this week? 2079 01:47:44,520 --> 01:47:46,480 Speaker 2: No, I mean this week it was like insily. 2080 01:47:46,640 --> 01:47:48,120 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, this ain't new. 2081 01:47:48,439 --> 01:47:50,519 Speaker 2: This is just Dan Hurley, That's what I'm saying. 2082 01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:51,000 Speaker 3: I saw. 2083 01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:53,800 Speaker 2: I try not to criticize other media members. Everyone's a 2084 01:47:53,840 --> 01:47:57,360 Speaker 2: title to their opinions, but like CBS was like, this 2085 01:47:57,479 --> 01:48:00,400 Speaker 2: is not becoming of the face of college basket whatever, 2086 01:48:00,439 --> 01:48:03,080 Speaker 2: and it's like, I'm like, listen, I know what's my guy. 2087 01:48:03,280 --> 01:48:06,040 Speaker 3: Bob Knight was the face of college basketball for a while. 2088 01:48:06,280 --> 01:48:08,559 Speaker 2: And not only that, it's exactly what you said. This 2089 01:48:08,640 --> 01:48:11,559 Speaker 2: is exactly who he was a year ago when you 2090 01:48:11,600 --> 01:48:14,360 Speaker 2: were lauding him as a genius and miles ahead of 2091 01:48:14,360 --> 01:48:17,600 Speaker 2: everybody else in college basketball. And really quickly. Since we 2092 01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:19,599 Speaker 2: won't get to it, he did comment on it after 2093 01:48:19,600 --> 01:48:22,160 Speaker 2: the game, and I absolutely love this quote. He said, 2094 01:48:22,280 --> 01:48:26,160 Speaker 2: quote the bigness of the reaction to me coaching as 2095 01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:29,320 Speaker 2: hard as I've always coached, that was so stunning to 2096 01:48:29,439 --> 01:48:33,360 Speaker 2: people that maybe aren't used to seeing such a fierce competitor. 2097 01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:34,960 Speaker 3: So if you think. 2098 01:48:34,840 --> 01:48:39,120 Speaker 2: Dan Hurley's gonna get canceled and he's going to uh uh, 2099 01:48:39,760 --> 01:48:41,800 Speaker 2: you know, he's gonna tone it down and he's gonna 2100 01:48:41,840 --> 01:48:45,160 Speaker 2: take deep breaths on the sideline, I know it ain't happening. 2101 01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:46,920 Speaker 2: Not my coach, people, now, it's just. 2102 01:48:46,840 --> 01:48:48,760 Speaker 3: The Ohio State football could use Dan. 2103 01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:49,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 2104 01:48:50,439 --> 01:48:53,000 Speaker 6: Can I just say about speaking generally, as we talk 2105 01:48:53,080 --> 01:48:56,040 Speaker 6: college sports all the time on this show, year after year, 2106 01:48:56,560 --> 01:48:59,719 Speaker 6: I have brought this up in past years. Yelling gets 2107 01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:01,920 Speaker 6: to the point where it gets to be a really 2108 01:49:01,960 --> 01:49:04,800 Speaker 6: bad thing in a couple of ways. One where you 2109 01:49:04,880 --> 01:49:07,720 Speaker 6: hold the others, including referees, to a standard that you 2110 01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:11,759 Speaker 6: don't hold yourself to. Too many coaches are yell first 2111 01:49:11,920 --> 01:49:15,400 Speaker 6: and don't held themselves as accountable immediately as they do 2112 01:49:15,439 --> 01:49:18,880 Speaker 6: the people they are yelling at, players included. Second is 2113 01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:22,400 Speaker 6: too much yelling on the sidelines. And I've seen this 2114 01:49:22,479 --> 01:49:24,920 Speaker 6: speaking of Arizona when they used to have Stoop's brother 2115 01:49:24,960 --> 01:49:27,160 Speaker 6: as their coach. It was the most negative sideline I've 2116 01:49:27,320 --> 01:49:30,040 Speaker 6: ever ever seen. I would never have suggested anybody to 2117 01:49:30,120 --> 01:49:32,640 Speaker 6: go play for him on an Arizona sideline because it 2118 01:49:32,760 --> 01:49:35,640 Speaker 6: was all yelling and all in your face, not the 2119 01:49:35,840 --> 01:49:39,080 Speaker 6: encouragement which other guys have succeeded with. By the way, 2120 01:49:39,200 --> 01:49:42,240 Speaker 6: and another way to coach, when you start getting into 2121 01:49:42,320 --> 01:49:46,639 Speaker 6: complaining and cross the line and stop coaching, that's completely wrong. 2122 01:49:46,720 --> 01:49:47,400 Speaker 6: You're the coach. 2123 01:49:47,479 --> 01:49:49,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, And what I would say is you could ask 2124 01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:52,320 Speaker 2: anybody who's been around Hurly. He loves his kids, those 2125 01:49:52,360 --> 01:49:55,719 Speaker 2: players love him, by the way. I saw a comment 2126 01:49:55,840 --> 01:50:00,000 Speaker 2: on the CBS article from the father of a recruit 2127 01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:03,080 Speaker 2: that's coming in next year. That said, they're just you 2128 01:50:03,080 --> 01:50:06,240 Speaker 2: know something about they try to tear down winners whenever 2129 01:50:06,280 --> 01:50:08,479 Speaker 2: they have success. And so the point I'm trying to 2130 01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:13,439 Speaker 2: make is the people who like whose opinions on Dan 2131 01:50:13,520 --> 01:50:17,160 Speaker 2: Hurley matter, are all in his corner, not just fans, 2132 01:50:17,200 --> 01:50:19,240 Speaker 2: but like the people that are around him every day. 2133 01:50:19,439 --> 01:50:22,479 Speaker 2: I thought it was a total nonsense story. Everybody was 2134 01:50:22,479 --> 01:50:23,320 Speaker 2: looking for some easy one. 2135 01:50:23,360 --> 01:50:25,400 Speaker 6: The night he throws a chair across the room, you 2136 01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:27,000 Speaker 6: do need to call him out for that. 2137 01:50:27,000 --> 01:50:29,400 Speaker 3: Though. Listen, didn't I say this last year? He's the 2138 01:50:29,439 --> 01:50:32,759 Speaker 3: best thing for college basketball, Like college basketball needs both 2139 01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:35,960 Speaker 3: Tony Bennett's or style. I mean, I know Tony Bennett 2140 01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:38,400 Speaker 3: just walked away, but like a Tony Bennett style and 2141 01:50:38,439 --> 01:50:42,559 Speaker 3: a Dan Hurley style. But Dan Hurley, John CALIPERI like 2142 01:50:42,640 --> 01:50:46,360 Speaker 3: these more polarizing figures, especially ones that win at this level. 2143 01:50:46,720 --> 01:50:48,680 Speaker 3: That's what you need. You needed some kind of a 2144 01:50:48,760 --> 01:50:51,160 Speaker 3: villain that if you're not a Connecticut fan, you can 2145 01:50:51,200 --> 01:50:53,599 Speaker 3: hate that guy and want to beat that guy. 2146 01:50:53,640 --> 01:50:57,160 Speaker 2: And I didn't realize how much people apparently hate him, 2147 01:50:57,200 --> 01:51:00,200 Speaker 2: Like I didn't think, like I'm just being sounds weird say, 2148 01:51:00,200 --> 01:51:02,760 Speaker 2: I didn't think he was important enough for people to 2149 01:51:02,880 --> 01:51:06,200 Speaker 2: hate as much as they appear to online this week. 2150 01:51:07,040 --> 01:51:08,639 Speaker 2: So anyway to say, I know you're gonna say Sana Cutch. 2151 01:51:08,800 --> 01:51:11,200 Speaker 6: As we're talking about programs with the old Big East, 2152 01:51:11,320 --> 01:51:14,080 Speaker 6: we must mention that tonight former Saint John's coach lou 2153 01:51:14,160 --> 01:51:16,920 Speaker 6: Carnaseca passed away at the age of ninety nine. By 2154 01:51:16,920 --> 01:51:19,720 Speaker 6: the way, he had retired in nineteen ninety two made 2155 01:51:19,760 --> 01:51:22,120 Speaker 6: the Hall of Fame that year. There was a college 2156 01:51:22,160 --> 01:51:25,000 Speaker 6: basketball tournament that wrapped up in Vegas. The title goes 2157 01:51:25,040 --> 01:51:26,960 Speaker 6: to Oregon eight to zero on a late jumper at 2158 01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:29,760 Speaker 6: beat number nine Alabama eighty three eighty one. The third 2159 01:51:29,760 --> 01:51:32,960 Speaker 6: place game, San Diego State up set Number six Houston 2160 01:51:33,000 --> 01:51:36,160 Speaker 6: in overtime. Wins for Texas A and m over Rutgers 2161 01:51:36,240 --> 01:51:38,960 Speaker 6: Creighton beat Notre Dame. There I must mention there was 2162 01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:42,040 Speaker 6: a women's college basketball game where number eighteen Old miss 2163 01:51:42,120 --> 01:51:46,240 Speaker 6: won today eighty nine to twenty four over Alabama States, 2164 01:51:46,360 --> 01:51:49,839 Speaker 6: a team that shot eight for forty two with thirty 2165 01:51:49,920 --> 01:51:53,840 Speaker 6: three turnovers in a forty minute game. I looked it up. 2166 01:51:54,040 --> 01:51:57,799 Speaker 6: This team had lost to Mississippi State as well, nearly 2167 01:51:57,840 --> 01:52:01,760 Speaker 6: the same score eighty three twenty nine and Alabama had 2168 01:52:01,760 --> 01:52:05,200 Speaker 6: beaten this same team eighty three thirty three. We are 2169 01:52:05,240 --> 01:52:06,759 Speaker 6: still early in the season. 2170 01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:07,639 Speaker 3: School. 2171 01:52:07,920 --> 01:52:10,480 Speaker 6: This is Alabama State women's basketball. 2172 01:52:10,800 --> 01:52:13,000 Speaker 2: Thanks, Yeah, they weren't. I thought they'd be a little 2173 01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:13,639 Speaker 2: bit better this year. 2174 01:52:13,800 --> 01:52:16,519 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, sure me too.

How soft 2241 01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:52,880 Speaker 2: is Ohio State? By the way, Speaking of which, Bernie 2242 01:55:52,920 --> 01:55:55,120 Speaker 2: Frida was following us here, and we know Bernie's gonna 2243 01:55:55,160 --> 01:55:58,240 Speaker 2: have some incredible stuff. Bernie, of course lived in Michigan 2244 01:55:58,280 --> 01:56:01,120 Speaker 2: for years, covered the Wolverines, has covered a bunch of 2245 01:56:01,160 --> 01:56:04,080 Speaker 2: these games Michigan, Ohio State, so we know Bernie is 2246 01:56:04,080 --> 01:56:07,520 Speaker 2: going to have some really good stuff really quickly. J 2247 01:56:07,680 --> 01:56:10,600 Speaker 2: mart I did see this. Speaking of college football, it's 2248 01:56:10,600 --> 01:56:14,520 Speaker 2: been a college football heavy show. We do have points 2249 01:56:14,520 --> 01:56:19,280 Speaker 2: spreads out for the conference championship games. Texas a slight 2250 01:56:19,360 --> 01:56:21,520 Speaker 2: one and a half point favorite over Georgia. Any strong 2251 01:56:21,560 --> 01:56:27,320 Speaker 2: opinions on Texas Georgia Part two, this time in Atlanta. 2252 01:56:27,480 --> 01:56:31,480 Speaker 3: Georgia really likes playing in that building would be one 2253 01:56:31,480 --> 01:56:34,920 Speaker 3: thing I would say. The other thing is the more 2254 01:56:34,960 --> 01:56:38,240 Speaker 3: I watched Texas, the less dominant I feel like they are. 2255 01:56:38,320 --> 01:56:41,120 Speaker 3: I mean, they crushed A and M. A and M 2256 01:56:41,160 --> 01:56:43,560 Speaker 3: had no offense at all, and they only won the 2257 01:56:43,560 --> 01:56:46,080 Speaker 3: game by ten, but it was a dominant ten point win. 2258 01:56:46,360 --> 01:56:50,080 Speaker 3: Their defense is incredible right now. I'm just kind of 2259 01:56:50,280 --> 01:56:54,200 Speaker 3: very wishy washy on quinn Ewers and the offense. Like 2260 01:56:54,720 --> 01:56:57,280 Speaker 3: the more I've watched them over the last couple of weeks, 2261 01:56:57,880 --> 01:56:59,800 Speaker 3: the more I think they're going to be better next 2262 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:03,480 Speaker 3: year with Arch and going forward with Arch, I think 2263 01:57:03,520 --> 01:57:05,440 Speaker 3: his ceiling is going to be higher. I think yours 2264 01:57:05,520 --> 01:57:08,240 Speaker 3: is fine. I'm not saying he's not, but I mean 2265 01:57:08,360 --> 01:57:13,040 Speaker 3: he's There's just something absent there that needs to be there. 2266 01:57:13,440 --> 01:57:16,440 Speaker 3: I think that game may well be determined by which 2267 01:57:16,560 --> 01:57:19,880 Speaker 3: quarterback is able to make fewer mistakes, and yours is 2268 01:57:19,920 --> 01:57:22,120 Speaker 3: such a warrior, and he's hurt all the time, and 2269 01:57:22,160 --> 01:57:24,440 Speaker 3: he's out there with the ankle and he's still running 2270 01:57:24,480 --> 01:57:28,240 Speaker 3: and scrambling on all this. Georgia may make that very 2271 01:57:28,240 --> 01:57:31,560 Speaker 3: difficult on him. If Georgia is tackling and they are 2272 01:57:31,600 --> 01:57:36,600 Speaker 3: physical with him, that could be trouble for Texas. I 2273 01:57:36,600 --> 01:57:39,280 Speaker 3: actually think Georgia is likely to win that game again. 2274 01:57:39,880 --> 01:57:42,000 Speaker 2: The one thing we have learned time and time again 2275 01:57:42,040 --> 01:57:47,280 Speaker 2: with Georgia is basically, really especially this year, they've been 2276 01:57:47,320 --> 01:57:49,960 Speaker 2: at their best when Kirby has been able to tell him, hey, 2277 01:57:50,080 --> 01:57:53,560 Speaker 2: nobody really believes in you. Obviously that was the case 2278 01:57:53,600 --> 01:57:56,920 Speaker 2: against Texas. Of course, the Tennessee win right after Old Miss, 2279 01:57:57,280 --> 01:58:00,240 Speaker 2: so we will see about that. By the way, the 2280 01:58:00,400 --> 01:58:05,440 Speaker 2: other point spreads in this upcoming weekend, we do have 2281 01:58:07,480 --> 01:58:10,640 Speaker 2: let's see Oregon. This one's a little surprising me. Four 2282 01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:13,840 Speaker 2: and a half point favorite against Penn State. That feels 2283 01:58:13,880 --> 01:58:16,800 Speaker 2: weirdly low to me. I feel like it's just. 2284 01:58:16,720 --> 01:58:21,080 Speaker 3: Because that feels like real respect for Penn State's defense 2285 01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:24,440 Speaker 3: sure more than anything else, because I don't think that 2286 01:58:25,360 --> 01:58:27,240 Speaker 3: Penn State's offense is going to be able to do 2287 01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:30,280 Speaker 3: all that much. Oregon's offense has kind of been up 2288 01:58:30,360 --> 01:58:33,880 Speaker 3: and down. But I mean, if they're humming, they're humming. 2289 01:58:34,320 --> 01:58:36,880 Speaker 3: But I do think that's more respect for Penn State's 2290 01:58:36,920 --> 01:58:40,520 Speaker 3: defense and their ability to make things ugly seemingly all 2291 01:58:40,560 --> 01:58:44,000 Speaker 3: season long when they have to. I think Oregon will 2292 01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:46,400 Speaker 3: cover that. I do. I'd be much. I kind of 2293 01:58:46,400 --> 01:58:48,240 Speaker 3: expect them to win it by double figures, but I 2294 01:58:48,240 --> 01:58:52,120 Speaker 3: can understand sort of the thought process on it really quickly. 2295 01:58:53,120 --> 01:58:55,680 Speaker 2: We do have SMU as a slight favorite over Clems 2296 01:58:55,680 --> 01:58:57,160 Speaker 2: in any strong opinions on that one. 2297 01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:02,280 Speaker 3: No, I honestly SMU wins it because I need the 2298 01:59:02,320 --> 01:59:06,120 Speaker 3: Clemson of this to be out. Also, like after the 2299 01:59:06,160 --> 01:59:08,560 Speaker 3: South Carolina performance and everything else, I'm good on that. 2300 01:59:08,920 --> 01:59:10,320 Speaker 3: I don't I don't need to see them in the 2301 01:59:10,320 --> 01:59:11,400 Speaker 3: college football playoffs. 2302 01:59:11,560 --> 01:59:14,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, they've had their chances, And I also think it 2303 01:59:14,440 --> 01:59:17,440 Speaker 2: opens the door about, uh, do we have to reconsider 2304 01:59:17,480 --> 01:59:20,720 Speaker 2: they lost to two SEC teams blah blah, So maybe 2305 01:59:20,760 --> 01:59:22,520 Speaker 2: maybe it's good SMU just makes I'll tell you what 2306 01:59:22,520 --> 01:59:23,800 Speaker 2: that we got a guy to here.
