00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal holl that for me. I'm

00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: a man, I'm.

3
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:10,039
Speaker 2: For I've heard so many players say, well I want

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 2: to be happy.

5
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: You want to be happy for dake Edo State? Is

6
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: that Woo woo? And no them and tie Dan Robinstein.

7
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: Week two is officially here. We still have some Week

8
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: one business that we need to attend to. Are there

9
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 1: more games? Are there more Week one games? There was

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: Wilmore game that we'll get to in a second. I've

11
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: got take a toe behind me. I'll get to that later.

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: And why it is behind me? Yeah, a lot to

13
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: talk about here. It is going to be a loaded

14
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: week of college football, my friend, how are you?

15
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,240
Speaker 2: I'm terrific, Ty, I'm really really good, And I'm really

16
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 2: good because I look at the slate of games and

17
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 2: I'm not going to sit here and pretend that, like,

18
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: all right, I've got a great read on Tennessee and

19
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 2: c State now that Tennessee has played Chattanooga and NC

20
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 2: State has struggled a little bit with what do they

21
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: play Western Carolina? Yeah, there's something about that. So I

22
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 2: enjoy Week two because it's also a week when we

23
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: can half make up the fact that, like why is

24
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: this team getting so much respect or like, why are

25
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 2: we so down on this team after a weird Week one?

26
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: And the lines can be a little bit screwy because

27
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: everybody's just doing their best out there, Ty, everybody's just

28
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: doing their best. So I enjoy Week two a good amount.

29
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: Do we have a name for this week? Well, I

30
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 2: was looking, Ty, I'm glad you brought that up. I

31
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 2: was looking at the slate ahead and it looks like,

32
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 2: especially among big ten teams and shout out, I think

33
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: it's Rev Djes Squire or boy.

34
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah.

35
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: Our Northwestern friend online pointed out that there are a

36
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: number of interesting, flavorful, spicy matchups specifically involving big ten teams. Right,

37
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: So you have Nebraska, Colorado definitely have like long bubbling

38
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 2: over baggage. Oh in Nebraska, Colorado, Boise State, Oregon. You

39
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 2: go back to what La Garrett Blunt Byron Hout all

40
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 2: those years ago is two thousand and nine.

41
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: You've got that.

42
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 2: You've got Michigan, Texas, which I don't think the baggage

43
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 2: is similar in that specific way. But the Sihawk game

44
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 2: right in state Iowa, Iowa State, Maryland, Michigan State. No

45
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 2: bad blood there, but I like that we're getting like

46
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: an in conference game there with we'll learn more about

47
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: Aiden Giles and Billy Edwards whatever. So I was just

48
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 2: thinking about like the long developing flavor, and then I

49
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 2: was thinking about fermentation because that's where my brain goes

50
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 2: Tie and the Midwest Germanic influence.

51
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: Tie.

52
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: You know about this, right you're a Perogi guys, Yes,

53
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 2: of course, big Ton. Welcome to Sauerkraut Saturday. Yeah, baby,

Speaker 1: By the way. Oh that should be our new theme song.

00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: Isn't that pretty good? Oh? I love it. It's set

00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,440

63
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: our crowd Saturday?

64
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: Okay, I promise you. I'm going to try to use

65
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 2: a restraint with that sound, but it is quite fun

66
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 2: and it made me think about John Candy and Home

67
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:15,640

88
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: that is what I've got. With that being said, we

89
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: did not talk at all about the Florida State Boston

90
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 1: College game. The reason we did not is because that

91
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 1: game was on Monday night. You and I recorded the

92
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: Tuesday Show on Monday afternoon. Well, and behold in the

93
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: great world of on demand audio, this did not work

94
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: to our favor. Now Florida State lost. They lost another one,

95
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: twenty eight to thirteen. It took the college football world

96
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: by storm. Can you do that voice that you did

97
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: the other day, just wondering, I know you're a voice guy.

98
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: That voice that you did the other day, that's me

99
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: when you were taunting me for thinking, for musing about

100
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: taking Boston College plus the points in this game.

101
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: I remember that it was extremely confident that Florida State

102
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: would bounce back. Did I go with like a high

103
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:04,679
Speaker 2: higher pitch register?

104
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 1: What did I do? I don't remember, but there was

105
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: some voice and I just kept thinking about, Oh, it

106
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: was probably I'm going to take Boston College. I think

107
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: that might have been the voice. Yeah, yeah, how did

108
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: that work out? Dan? Oh? Horrible?

109
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 2: I mean, almost as bad as it worked out for

110
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: Florida State. I really put my faith in what I

111
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 2: assumed would be at least a quality team this year.

112
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: And maybe it's you know, starting out of the gate slow.

113
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a quarterback not picking up a system or

114
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 2: not confident and receivers not getting up whatever. There's probably

115
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,799
Speaker 2: a number of factors involved behind the scenes, but I

116
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: definitely did not see this type of early season collapse

117
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 2: coming for the Knowles.

118
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: And you know, the story here is not that Boston

119
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: College won. That's a story in its own right for me.

120
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 1: The stories that it wasn't even close.

121
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 2: I was going to say Boston College kind of sat

122
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 2: on it.

123
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,280
Speaker 1: At the end. They sat on it at the end,

124
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: but they dominated pretty much from the beginning. This game

125
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: was not even close. When I messaged you there were

126
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: nine minutes left in the second quarter in Boston College

127
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 1: was already up fifteen minutes in time of possession, which

128
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 1: is a bonker stat that doesn't even seem possible wild,

129
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: But they owned Florida State. So kudos to BC and

130
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien our guy Thomas Castellanos for pretty much running

131
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: back the exact same playbook that we saw at Georgia

132
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: Tech do over in Ireland. There weren't a whole lot

133
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: of smoking mirrors. They ran it fifty two times over

134
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: two hundred and sixty yards. Boston College, Man, they're gonna

135
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: be feisty this year. I warned you don't say, I

136
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: don't warn you they're gonna be feisty. But what does

137
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: it mean at this point? Now?

138
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 2: Do we devalue what Georgia Tech was able to do

139
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: in Ireland if Boston College was able to do it

140
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 2: in Doak? Like, what does it all mean? We'll find

141
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 2: out and that's the joy and fun of college football season.

142
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, Boston College just I don't know. They played

143
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 2: sound defense. They just decided to run the hell out

144
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: of the ball, just like Georgia Tech did. It worked out,

145
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: they dominated, They looked more together and pretty much every

146
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 2: phase and looked energetic in playing for a new coach,

147
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 2: new system, and Castellanos looked I mean.

148
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: They didn't go downfield that much.

149
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 2: No, no, why would you against this Florida State defense

150
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:11,679
Speaker 2: in this moment?

151
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: They had no need to. And I'm just going to

152
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: put this here. They don't play Clemson, they don't play Miami.

153
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: Their toughest conference road game is at Virginia Tech, who

154
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: just lost to Vandy. Yeah, I did check nine in three.

155
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: BC dot Com is available for seventeen ninety nine.

156
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: Now is that using the numbers are spelling out nine

157
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: spelling out three?

158
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: That is using the numbers nine in three BC dots. Okay,

159
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: I have to pick that up for my own personal collection.

160
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: On the Florida State side, man Florida stated mass turnover

161
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: from a year ago, and if anything, we saw in

162
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: weak zero against Georgia Tech that they are flawed on

163
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: a couple different levels. For one, the trend of the

164
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: linebackers getting roasted continued, there were guys out there running

165
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 1: the wrong direction. That's not good. They got to fix that.

166
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: The defensive line, the vaunted defensive line that I heard

167
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: Pete Fammel talk to NFL scouts about and they said

168
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: it might be the best line in call it you

169
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: remember that, Yeah, didn't really look it through two games.

170
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: Maybe that'll change, don't know, but that's clearly not where

171
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: it needs to be. And then there's the whole DJ

172
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: you thing, which is kind of a disaster, and I

173
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: don't really want to put it all on him. I

174
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: don't think that's fair. I'm sure it's more complex than

175
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: just a DJ you thing, But there's no reason Florida

176
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: State should ever be three and fourteen on third downs

177
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: against a team like Boston College. No respect, no disrespect

178
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: to the Eagles, but it just seems like there is

179
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,479
Speaker 1: a lot wrong. It's a multi pronged issue in Tallahassee

180
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: at the moment, and I really don't know when it

181
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: starts getting better. I don't think the schedule gets particularly

182
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 1: easier the deeper they get into this thing, so more

183
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: to come for sure.

184
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: Were there Florida State fans calling for the backup quarterback?

185
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 2: Was that a thing during the game loudly?

186
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: I watched the game. I was half wondering, and they

187
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: might try to make a move to a backup. It

188
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: wasn't a good showing. An So the Knoles have off

189
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: this week. They get Memphis in week three. Memphis is

190
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: a good team. Dan. People are talking Memphis up for

191
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:12,239
Speaker 1: the playoffs.

192
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 2: I mean, look, whatever Georgia Tech and Boston College end

193
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: up being if you are establishing yourself as below first

194
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 2: year coach, Boston College and Georgia Tech, which has had

195
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 2: an up and down and I think is in the

196
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 2: moment of is in the middle of it, like a

197
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: spirited moment like Georgia Tech I think is on an

198
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: upswing right now. But if you say you are beneath

199
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: them in September of twenty twenty four, which is only

200
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: fair to say you lose on a neutral field, and

201
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 2: you lose on your home field to those teams. You're

202
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 2: talking about Memphis playing an average ACC team maybe at

203
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 2: best in this moment, don't. I don't necessarily think that's

204
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 2: where Florida State's gonna end up this year. But in

205
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 2: this moment, in this Florida State is at best an

206
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 2: average ACC.

207
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: Team, I think that's fair. And this so called average

208
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: ACC team has Clemson, has Miami, and has Notre Dame

209
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: on the schedule, among others. So I talk about message

210
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 1: board fodder. Message board conversation has run a mock about

211
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: is this even a bowl team at this point because

212
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: they've looked pretty bad through these first two weeks against

213
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: teams that you would expect they'd be a little bit

214
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 1: a little bit better against, to say the least. So

215
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens on the Florida State side. But again,

216
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: kudos to Bill O'Brien in his first game with BC.

217
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: They came out, they kept it simple, they turned it

218
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: over to their playmaker, our boy, Thomas Castellanos. They wouldn't

219
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: gave twenty eight to thirteen.

220
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I hope it means good things for BC, right,

221
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,080
Speaker 2: I don't want to just sort of sit in the

222
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 2: Florida state negativity.

223
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: Jacuzzi. Hope it means that BC is beginning an upswing.

224
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: That'd be cool to help. Of the week. Let's get

225
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 1: to our big games. Yeah, call them big dogs here

226
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: on the show, Dan, why not? This segment brought to

227

Speaker 1: five to five verbal three is the reverb line. If

233
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 1: you listen to the recap episode that we did after

234
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 1: week one. We had to play the reverbs earlier in

235
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: the episode. They were that good. And now that I've

236
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 1: turned this over as a texting option for people during

237
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: the week to get their takes in, I'm going to

238
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: play one of those. Our girl, Nancy the fembotch you

239
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: read one of them. We're gonna throw it and take

240
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: a toe a little bit later on in this episode,

241
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: so you can keep doing that if you want to.

242
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: I still have to unlink it from my phone because

243
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: it's been keeping me awake at night, but a lot

244
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: of texts coming through. We appreciate your support, We appreciate

245
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: your feedback. But if you give that number a call

246
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: eight five to five verbal three on Saturday, we'll pick

247
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: out some of our favorite voice messages and play them

248
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 1: alongside our recap. Yes, twelve o'clock high neun on Fox,

249
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: it is Texas minus seven and one half points on

250
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: the road at Michigan. You are our Michigan man here

251
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: on the show. Oh yeah, that's me, the Michigan man

252
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: once removed. What is the vibe like in the Rubenstein House?

253
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: Have you put the flags out yet? Oh? Blue? Like?

254
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: What painting the kids' faces?

255
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 2: We at We actually do have an Oregon flag and

256
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 2: a Michigan flag, Like this is an actual thing that

257
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 2: people do in our neighborhood. They put out their Alma

258
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 2: Mater flag. So I think I got to get the

259
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 2: flag holder in place. I think I have to secure

260
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 2: that because we got to start flying some flags. As

261
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 2: you know, the Chris Bottom air approaches. I think there's excitement.

262
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: I know a couple of people who are trying to go.

263
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if it worked out for them. Michigan

264
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: people trying to get up to ann Arbor from around here.

265
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: But I mean, I think vibes are still pretty high

266
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: among the Michigan faithful, even after last week's offensive struggles

267
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 2: at times. So I think vibes are still high in

268
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: the shadow of last season's national championship run. So this

269
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 2: has been a non conference calendar circler for a while.

270
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 1: Now, how do you feel about the way this game

271
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:15,599
Speaker 1: shakes out? Because I could not get past my skepticism

272
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 1: of the Michigan quarterback situation. Yeah, that to me is

273
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 1: stuck in the craw. I love the defense, like the

274
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: rushing attack, even like the coach. There's a lot to

275
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: like about this Michigan team. But that quarterback situation. I

276
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: kept thinking that through and that bothers me.

277
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: I want to do my best to extend grace to

278
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: every single team in college football, the grace of saying

279
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 2: that was Week one, and there are always going to

280
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: be lumpy week ones for everybody in some regard. So

281
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 2: this is not just true about Michigan, not just true

282
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 2: about any other team that wasn't fully satisfied with one

283
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 2: or both sides of the ball. But everything after the

284
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: butt is what you really mean, right, That's right? But

285
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: I would have liked to see Davis Warren with an

286
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 2: extremely experienced offensive line in front of him or an

287
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 2: extremely experienced receiving corps to count on. And the fact

288
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: that we are counting on all of the news even

289
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 2: though the offensive coordinator was just an internal promotion. New

290
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: full time offensive coordinator, new full time starting quarterback, new

291
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: full time offensive line, new full time receiving corps. It's

292
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 2: a lot of new for a game like this, and

293
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 2: so that's where my mind is with this Michigan offense,

294
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 2: which had scored I think the score was like sixteen

295
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 2: ten in the fourth quarter against what I consider to

296
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 2: be a pretty good Fresno State team. But all the same,

297
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 2: sixteen points is not incredible for a home open that's

298
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 2: not going to win against Texas, sixteen points is not

299
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 2: a lot, and they ended up scoring more and they

300
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: had the pick six at the end. I believe it

301
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 2: was a pick six, Yes, yep, yep, So you know,

302
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: score points. However, you can still questions to me now

303
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 2: the way Texas is built. I really like how this

304
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 2: Texas defense should improve this year. But going on the road,

305
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 2: this was not a great road team last year, you know,

306
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: losing Neutral Site to Oklahoma struggling against TCU, struggling against.

307
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: Houston, everybody.

308
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 2: It's difficult for everybody on the road, but would have

309
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 2: liked to see maybe stronger performances to feel incredible about

310
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 2: Texas in this spot. But in terms of the number

311
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: of ways Texas can win within a running back still whatever.

312
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 2: If I'm a Texas fan, I'm feeling pretty incredible with

313
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: where Michigan specifically is because it's hard to imagine Michigan

314
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 2: having a plan AB and C on offense to win

315
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 2: this game. Not worried about this Michigan defense at all,

316
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 2: but I think they're going to be on the field

317
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 2: a while, and so I was really digging to say

318
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 2: I think Michigan at the very least covers this game

319
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 2: because tough defense at home is a pretty incredible combination

320
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 2: throughout the years. It's a time tested thing. But you're

321
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: asking me to put the faith in Davis Warren to

322
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 2: score I don't know, twenty four points or something like that,

323
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 2: twenty one points, eighteen points. It's not gonna be Alex Orgy, right.

324
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 2: If they loved Alex Orgy as a quarterback, they'd have

325
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 2: him throw more than twice three times? Is that what

326
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: he threw against Fresno. They didn't want him throwing that

327
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 2: many times, probably for a reason. So this is a

328
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 2: Davis Warren offense at least for now. And so I

329
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 2: have Texas winning this game. What did I write down here?

330
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 2: I want to get down exactly what I wrote down

331
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: twenty three to thirteen in covering.

332
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: You're not going to believe this? Yeah, I have twenty

333
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: three to thirteen as well.

334
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 2: Is that true? Digital high five? Great job, Digital high five.

335
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, my theory is that Texas is just the better,

336
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: more complete team and they're going to win the game.

337
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: That's been my theory since March. It's even more my

338
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: theory now after the whole quarterback thing unfolded last week

339
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 1: for Michigan. If Sharon Moore is giving the reins to

340
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: Davis Warren, we have to take that as a vote

341
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: of no confidence in Alex Orgy throwing the ball just

342
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: as you described. I think that's completely fair, and it

343
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: brings me back to something I've said for a while

344
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: now about the Michigan offense. It worked last year in

345
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 1: the year before, yes, because of the offensive line, because

346
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: it was a Joe Moore caliber unit. But I think

347
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: it worked more because of the threat of JJ McCarthy.

348
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: You couldn't over commit to the run because if you

349
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 1: had to win a pinch, JJ could still beat you

350
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: through the air. If they don't have that second pitch

351
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 1: with Davis Warren or whoever, that makes that offense really

352
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: one dimensional. Can Michigan run the ball forty five times

353
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 1: and win against a team like Texas? I don't think so.

354
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if it comes to that, but whether

355
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: they're trying to run it forty five times or they

356
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: end up having a throw at forty five times, I

357
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: just I would like to see more balance from the

358
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: offense or have more known quantities on this offense that

359
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: I could rely on. Now, maybe Davis Warren will turn

360
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: into something this game that we didn't see last It

361
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: was his first game as a starting quarterback, right. I

362
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: just don't want to put my money behind that. The

363
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: other thing that I would add here, just if we're

364
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: being complete about things, please, Texas did lose some beef

365
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: along its defensive line, Yes they did. It's not easy

366
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: to replace a guy like a Devandre Sweat Byron Murphy.

367
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: I do think that Michigan's going to be able to

368
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: run the ball in Texas to some extent, but they

369
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: still got to figure out some sort of balance. You

370
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: can't be completely one dimensional. I love Donovan Edwards. I

371
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: think he'll move the rock a little bit, but if

372
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: you can't rely solely on that against a team like

373
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 1: a Texas, it's just not the same team it was

374
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 1: a year ago. So I understand the point spread. I

375
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: get where people are coming from when they look at

376
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: this and they say, well, Michigan's got the defense there

377
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 1: at home, that makes a lot of sense to me.

378
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: Given the matchup. I think it makes a ton of

379
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: sense for Michigan to make this very messy and drain

380
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: the clock. You'll laughing how many touches Texas gets. That

381
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: sort of thing wouldn't surprise me. It's a lower scoring game.

382
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: The over unders I think I saw forty two, forty

383
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: two and a half somewhere in that in that vicinity.

384
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: I don't like unders, but I might be inclined to

385
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 1: go under if I were going to place a bet

386
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: on the total here. But I'm with you, man, I've

387
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: got literally the same score twenty three to thirteen. The

388
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 1: difference for me is that offense for Michigan, which I

389
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: think could end up being very one dimensional against a

390
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: good Texas defense and against Texas offense. Frankly, that has,

391
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: as you said, a number of different ways to beat you.

392
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: And the good thing.

393
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 2: Look, if you're going to say there is some good

394
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 2: potentially about Michigan throwing the ball, it's that they have

395
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 2: one of the best three tight ends in the country. Yeah,

396
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: so in terms of like a safety net, safety valve

397
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 2: whatever on third and seven or something, there is that

398
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 2: gravitational player for Michigan.

399
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: But once again, what's plan BC and D. That's the problem.

400
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: That's the problem I have with it too.

401
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 2: Michigan is not able to get to him all the

402
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 2: time to Colston Lovelin, so I don't know small receivers too.

403
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 2: And I like the emergence of a second back from

404
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:38,199
Speaker 2: Michigan last week. Mullings looks strong to very strong. So

405
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 2: that's a nice addition. But that was never going to

406
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 2: be the question. We always knew Michigan was going to

407
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 2: be focused on running the ball a lot. But yeah, man,

408
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: third and seven's third and eleven's you know, down ten?

409
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: What does that offense look like? What's the patients like?

410
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 2: This isn't Jim Harbaugh, This isn't twenty twenty three, so

411
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: I sort of got to see it before I believe it.

412
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: All right, So we have a big time three thirty CBS.

413
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: It's a Syhawk game. It is Iowa State on the

414
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: road at Iowa. Iowa is favored by a field goal

415
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: the over unders thirty five.

416
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 2: I like the gravitas and dramatic nature of.

417
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: That that is so low and makes a ton of sense.

418
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: H in a game like this, I am on Iowa State.

419
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 1: I would be a hypocrit if I weren't on Iowa State.

420
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: I did the whole preseason thing about the best of

421
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: all Rocos, Rocko Beck being the Boer the boor. Yeah,

422
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: so I have to go just by default with the

423
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 1: clones here. I still believe they may be one of

424
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 1: the more overlooked teams in all of college football, if

425
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: only because they're bigger stories elsewhere. It's not a sexy team,

426
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: but it's a very very good team, And if you

427
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: are an Iowa State fan, I think that's a good

428
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: thing to be overlooked. You could win this game and

429
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: still be overlooked into your Big twelve schedule. I think

430
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: that's where you want to be. I think that's the

431
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: kind of thing that this team under Matt Campbell has

432
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: thrived with in the past. So like we all know

433
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 1: what kind of game this is going to be, Dan right,

434
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: This is going to be a low scoring game that

435
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: comes down to kickers and field positions and penalties and

436
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 1: turnovers and all the ugly stuff that makes football in

437
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: Iowa what it is. In the Year of Our Lord

438
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, the nugget that I will give you here,

439
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: oh here comes if we are talking about kickers, how

440
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: saucy would you say?

441
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: This nugget is moderately saucy. Moderately saucy.

442
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: Okay, two kickers, let's take a look at the two

443
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: kickers chair please. Of course, Iowa much more experienced kicker

444
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,120
Speaker 1: Drew Stevens. He's hit from fifty one to fifty two

445
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: to fifty three and fifty four in his college career,

446
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 1: two fifty yardists per season. So when did this start

447
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 1: happening with college I don't know. I'm uncomfortable with college

448
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: kickers being this good. Yeah, continue, that's on the Iowa side.

449
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: On the Iowa state side, they've got a walk on

450
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: freshman kicker.

451
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 2: His name is Kyle CONRARTI I can barely say that's okay,

452
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 2: you're in the neighborhood.

453
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, he hit a couple forty yarders in the spring game,

454
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: but nothing but extra points. Last week.

455
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 2: He claims he's comfortable from anything inside sixty.

456
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: Don't they all? Yeah, don't they all? But if push

457
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 1: comes to shove the experiences on the side of Iowa

458
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: in the kicking game, Dan, this will be a game

459
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: that features multiple field goals. Which where are you going?

460
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 2: I mean, this is not a difficult answer for me

461
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 2: if you're talking about, like, Okay, this game is going

462
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 2: to be ugly, it's going to be weird. It's going

463
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 2: to come down to special teams. It's going to come

464
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 2: down to like picking up third and ones. Whose kink

465
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 2: is that? Who has a basement full of equipment ready

466
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: for this specific kind of game. Kirk Farence, who's won

467
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 2: thirty eight of the last thirty nine in this matchup.

468
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: That's a made up number.

469
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:57,680
Speaker 2: But it's Iowa, right, Yeah, lose to Iowa and curve Brims,

470
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 2: that's what Matt Campbell does. I don't like I was

471
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 2: gonna win this game. You said it's three points. They're

472
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,719
Speaker 2: gonna win by four. Seventeen thirteen Clones. Excuse me, seventeen

473
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,959
Speaker 2: thirteen Hawks here, I've got Iowa State sixteen fourteen. Okay,

474
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 2: I get what you're saying, obviously, and there's a reason

475
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 2: this point spread is only three.

476
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. Love the Iowa defense. Not crazy about the offense.

477
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm breaking any new news here. Sixteen fourteen.

478
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: Iowa State gets it done.

479
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 2: Every time I pick Iowa State in this game and

480
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 2: watch this game, I slink back onto my couch and think,

481
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 2: of course, this is how this game is going. Of

482
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 2: course it is every time.

483
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, four o'clock ESPNU. Here's a little bit

484
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: of an ephis game at the top. Oh. I like

485
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: this UTSA against Texas State, Texas State the Bombcats. Yeah,

486
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: one point favorite Dan. I threw this one on the

487
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 1: list because I feel it's two of the more intriguing

488
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 1: G five teams out there, and I have, speaking of Kinks,

489
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: an unhealthy obsession with Texas State and the Bobcats this year.

490
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: Really I love this team. Yeah, I absolutely love this team.

491
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: I love this game. The over under is about sixty

492
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: five points sixty four and a half depending where you look.

493
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 1: You are not tuning into this game for defense, full stop.

494
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I looked up last year's Texas

495
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 2: State defense, and I try to make a habit of

496
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: not like going through numbers like mil C said, No, no,

497
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 2: I'm not doing that, but if I may, Texas State

498
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 2: was like number five in pressure rate in college football

499
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 2: last year, like they were one of the absolute best.

500
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 2: And in terms of defensive success rate when they blitzed,

501
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 2: they were one hundred and thirty first, right, So that

502
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 2: was just all or nothing. They were like the O

503
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 2: Town defense of twenty twenty three.

504
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 1: And I love it. I already love it. Nothing but

505
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: engage eight every play. Yeah, beautiful, beautiful. Here's why I

506
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 1: should care about this game. Yeah, there is going to

507
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: be a G five team in the playof this here.

508
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 1: We know this, that's true. And Texas State, for my money,

509
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: is a dark horse. Okay, dark horse in that conversation,

510
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: if only because they're in the only conference in college

511
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: football at this point that still has divisions. Okay, and

512
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: some Belt West looks like it might be down if

513
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: only as a result of Troy being down. Troy lost

514
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 1: last week, They're heavy underdog again this week, I think

515
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 1: against Memphis, and this stands to reason for me that

516
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,400
Speaker 1: Texas State could find its way into that Sun Belt

517
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: championship game for at least, I don't know, an opportunity

518
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: to impress the committee and get into that spot if

519
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: things break their way. I don't know how likely that is,

520
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: but they could go twelve to zero against the schedule.

521
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: They could get a crack against somebody like app State

522
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,199
Speaker 1: in that title game, and I'm telling you, man, they

523
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: can score. They can absolutely score. And by the way,

524
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 1: UTSA is in a similar place in the American So

525
00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 1: this is like an early season litmus test and the

526
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: kind of game that you just know people are going

527
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: to bring up either directly or indirectly depending how things break,

528
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: as a measure for conference strength American versus Sunbelt. Here

529
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: are the points of overlap, stuff like that. A one

530
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 1: point spread. I'm on the Bobcats. I'm horribly biased here.

531
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: I love what they're doing with that offense, don't so

532
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 1: much care about defense. But I think it'll be a

533
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 1: fun watch one way or the other. So give me

534
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: Texas State here at four o'clock. You're floating in the

535
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: mcclouds right.

536
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you pick Texas State. Defense wasn't incredible last they

537
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,880
Speaker 2: played Lamar I want to say, correct, last week Texas

538
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 2: State UTSA dogs and is a one point spread?

539
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: Is that what you said? One point spread?

540
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 2: I'm going UTSA. And not only am I going to UTSA,

541
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 2: I'm making them.

542
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: My lock of the week, whoa luck of the week

543
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,919
Speaker 1: once again, extending grace to everybody for their week ones.

544
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 2: I think UTSA is going to be really good. I

545
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: think their defense is going to be good enough for

546
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 2: this specific game on the road. I like Owen McCown.

547
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 2: I like their ability to run, and just if you're

548
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 2: going to say this is a high scoring ish game,

549
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 2: their ability to get off the field, to me is superior.

550
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: So I'm going to one Roadrunners here. Seven point thirty

551
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 1: NBC Colorado at Nebraska.

552
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 2: Okay, repeat that seven thirty Eastern on NBC Network Television.

553
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 2: That was Aaron Colorado Nebraska, can't wait. Continue Nebraska favor

554
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 2: by seven and a half points. They played last year

555
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 2: and Boulder Colorado won that game thirty six to fourteen.

556
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 2: That was the game that got Colorado to two and zero,

557
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 2: and it's set up that big rivalry game against Colorado State,

558
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 2: the one that went to overtime, and game day was

559
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 2: there and it was a big deal. This year's game

560
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 2: though much different, suffice to say, and that's because of

561
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 2: Dilon Roya. For Nebraska, that's because a full year of

562
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 2: seasoning under Matt Ruhle has made this team better. If

563
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,679
Speaker 2: you have not read any of the analysis from the

564
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 2: scouts who have gone through Riola's tape, let me save

565
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 2: you some time. A lot of Pat Mahomes comparisons out there. Yeah,

566
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: a lot of Pat Mahomes comparisons for Dylan Royola. I'm

567
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 2: not just saying that for hyperbole. I saw some of

568
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 2: the tape.

569
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: There is a little bit of Pat Mahomes there. Okay,

570
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: I'd be honest here with the verballer hood. Yeah, a

571
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: little bit of Pat Mahomes there.

572
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 2: People said that about you as a high school second basement.

573
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 2: They did it, very strange because Pat Mahomes was six

574
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 2: years old at the time.

575
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: Continue they did, they did? Yeah, where is your heart

576
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 1: in this game? How do you find about this game?

577
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: I feel so great about this game because of the

578
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 1: bright lights. That's why I had you repeat seven point

579
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: thirty NBC. Dylan Royola, Shador Sanders. I wonder, look, it

580
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: was North Dakota State. I wonder if Colorado was not

581
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 1: showing everything, but what they showed is kind of what

582
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: they showed last year. Right, they were just the same thing.

583
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 2: They were gonna win or lose with Shador Sanders going

584
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 2: downfield making plays and to his.

585
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: Credit, he's very good. He's very good.

586
00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 2: Travis Hunter's excellent, Like the receiving core looks to be

587
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 2: very good once again. But it almost felt like that

588
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 2: would have been a moment to dust off or introduce

589
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 2: something new with this offense and running the ball with

590
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 2: the lead and getting creative with how you run the

591
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 2: ball with the lead and sort of figuring out how

592
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 2: to best utilize your offensive line, and they didn't. So

593
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 2: I just I wonder if they were just like, this

594
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 2: is the Colorado We're going to get for better or worse,

595
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: and maybe they'll win more games this year.

596
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: I think they probably will.

597
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,880
Speaker 2: And on the Nebraska side, I also wonder, like, again,

598
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: what's the spread.

599
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: At the time of record seven and a half?

600
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 2: Like my question is what exactly has Nebraska accomplished right

601
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 2: in this moment to be favored by a not significant

602
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 2: but a not nothing number. And so that's the question

603
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 2: to me, Like you handle UTEP and that's great, but

604
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 2: the way they lost at the end of the year

605
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 2: last year, and we got to see how the new

606
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 2: guys are going to respond on offense, specifically Dylan Royola.

607
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 2: So to me, it's it's a bright lights game, right,

608
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 2: Like this is I mean for both of them, but

609
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 2: specifically Dylan Royola. It's his moment to shine, right, It's

610
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 2: this introduction to the sport, and so that to me

611
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 2: is fascinating that, like, does he rise to that moment?

612
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question, quick, please? What happens

613
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: in a shootout here? Because I think there's a strong likelihood.

614
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: This game devolves into a shootout, if only because Colorado's playing.

615
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: Colorado's kind of built for that. Yeah, right, I'm not

616
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: going to play the shootout sound. We can save that

617
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: for when it actually happens and we do the Saturday

618
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: night recap. But hypothetically speaking, if this game devolves into

619
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: a shootout, who does that favor?

620
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 2: My gut right now says Colorado because of Schador's ability

621
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 2: to improvise and playmake But I think it depends a

622
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 2: lot on Dylan Rola's ability to grow up fast. If

623
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 2: he's able to get into that moment and have that

624
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 2: sort of calm of a savvier veteran.

625
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 1: Then I could see it.

626
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 2: But in terms of playmaking, like who am I trusting

627
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 2: more to drive down the field down four with two

628
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 2: forty one left? I trust the Colorado players. I distrust

629
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: Dion Sanders more in that moment. So I think I'm

630
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: going to say Colorado still in a shootout, but I

631
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 2: have Nebraska winning. Nebraska is my pick, but not covering

632
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: but not Let's see what did I write down here?

633
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 2: Ty one second thirty one to twenty seven.

634
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 1: I agree with you, I do, and I think if

635
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: we've learned anything from rule over the years, he's going

636
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: to see a matchup like this, and he's going to

637
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: try to control the tempo, establish the run, set up

638
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: Dylan Royola, instead of putting all of it on him,

639
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: have kind of the collective work to his favor and

640
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: then set him up for some spotsor he can take

641
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: shots down the field. That may prevent a forty five

642
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: to forty kind of game, but I still think it's

643
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: a game that gets into the thirties on both sides.

644
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any way to avoid a higher

645
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: scoring game. Maybe not a crazy heavy duty shootout, but

646
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: we're at least going to get a light one in

647
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: this matchup. I think there's a chance this is the

648
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: most watched game of all of Week two, and that's

649
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: more than Michigan tax that's noting that Michigan Texas plays

650
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: earlier in the day. But there's a lot of interest

651
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: in this game, not just because Nebraska is trying to

652
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: rise from the ashes, but Colorado. Say what you will

653
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: about the Dion Sanders era, they're nothing if not interesting.

654
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: A lot of people are going to watch this game.

655
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: I'm curious, frankly, just to see where the ratings come in.

656
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: Not that I'm much of a ratings guy, but it'll

657
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: be fascinating to see where the public's at with these

658
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 1: two teams. I think this is the kind of game

659
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: that launches Dylan Royola into the stratosphere. And if Nebraska wins,

660
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: it's going to be in large part due to his arm,

661
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: just because there will be opportunities to take shots down

662
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: the field. Look at what we saw with North Dakota State.

663
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: The options will be there for him if they can

664
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,239
Speaker 1: find way to get guys open and scheme around, you know,

665
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: any deficiencies they may have on offense. I think it's

666
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: Nebraska thirty five, thirty one. But I'm also taking those points.

667
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: I do not trust that if this game ends up

668
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: as a high scoring affair, Colorado won't be very close.

669
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: I just think they are built for that style of game.

670
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do too, that like they'll seem like they're

671
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 2: out of it and they score, you know, twenty one

672
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 2: in the third quarter and you're like, wait, where did

673
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 2: this come from? Exactly No, And this is another This

674
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 2: is like a long term thing with a game like this,

675
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 2: because I think you're right, the game's kind of unopposed

676
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 2: in terms of huge teams. I think Tennessee, NC State

677
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 2: is also at night, but there's no you know, it's

678
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 2: not going against Texas Michigan in terms of ratings. So

679
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 2: if Dylan Ryola does have you know, if this is

680
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 2: his moment to shine or whatever, then this can be

681
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 2: an attractive thing for receivers in the portal in December, right,

682
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 2: But all of a sudden, they're like, hell, he just

683
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 2: needs a new number one, he just needs a couple

684
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 2: of And I'm like, all of a sudden, Nebraska becomes

685
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 2: that destination. So this is that like the Sooner, he

686
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 2: grows up the Sooner, like the real fun begins.

687
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: For the Akrita. Yep, absolutely, I can tell you this.

688
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 1: It may not outdraw Texas Michigan. I think it all

689
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:13,240
Speaker 1: out draw Tennessee NC State. Yes, this is the ABC

690
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 1: game at seven thirty opposite the Colorado Nebraska game over

691
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: on NBC. They're playing this one in Charlotte neutral site,

692
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: Bank of America Stadium. Tennessee is favored by eight in

693
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: this matchup. The line is quietly gone up a little bit.

694
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,280
Speaker 1: Obviously a huge opportunity for both teams. This is Tennessee's

695
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: first real opponent in the NICO Era. This is NC

696
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: State's first real opponent now with this roster that they

697
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: got the boost, right, they got the transfer portal boost,

698
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 1: and now they're playing somebody of real consequence. Took them

699
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: a little bit to get going against Western Carolina. Eventually

700
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 1: they ran away from them all as well. But this

701
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: is a really big opportunity for both these teams because

702
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,320
Speaker 1: you could argue that both are on the periphery of

703
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: the playoff discussion that's going to continue throughout the course

704
00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: of the year. Both are going to be part of

705
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: their respective conference conversations as well. For some period of time.

706
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 1: The thing that kept bouncing around in my head is

707
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 1: I think it would be really easy to look at

708
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: Tennessee and be skeptical because they've got a first year starter.

709
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: And even though Nico is not an anonymous entity at

710
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 1: this point, most people who follow it as closely as

711
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: you and I Dan, we know who Nico is, right,

712
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: But I think for people out there who are listening,

713
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: who haven't watched any Tennessee, you don't know what this

714
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 1: kid's all about, it's very easy to look at this

715
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,359
Speaker 1: game and say, Wow, he's green, it's a first year starter.

716
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 1: It's a big spot at night. I don't feel that way.

717
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: I feel like Nico is built different. I agree, and

718
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 1: so from my standpoint, that is not something that scares me.

719
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: Does it scare you not?

720
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 2: Especially? Look, he starts the ballgame. He sees spots here

721
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 2: and there last year, but he starts the bowl game

722
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 2: and starts game one of this year, and they light

723
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 2: up Chattanooga and do so pretty efficiently.

724
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 1: Sure, so the reps are there, The confidence is, there's

725
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: a there's a deep enough receiving core. I think it

726
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 1: was the Oregon transfer Dante Thornton who led Tennessee in

727
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,280
Speaker 1: receiving last week. But whether it's Brazzle or Dylan Samson

728
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, Like, there's just so many options.

729
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: To me, it's.

730
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 2: What is NC State able to do to correct what

731
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 2: sort of looks sloppy last week? Extend grace to week one.

732
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 2: So it's grace and McCall, accuracy and speed and processing.

733
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 2: It's the ability to stop the run. Because as fun

734
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 2: as it is to talk about Nico and these receivers

735
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 2: and the big Josh Hypel offense, like Dylan Samson's really good. Yeah,

736
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,319
Speaker 2: like he was good last week, whatever that means to you,

737
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 2: but he was good in spots last season. And so

738
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 2: if NC State is struggling upfront on defense like they

739
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,359
Speaker 2: did at times last week, that's the guy who's going

740
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 2: to eat. We do that segment who's eating on Big

741
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 2: ten Breakfast Dream lived at nine am Eastern every Friday morning.

742
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 2: You know, Dylan Samson might be the hungry, hungry hippo

743
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,839
Speaker 2: of the week for me, well just because of NC

744
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 2: State and if that, if that persists from last week, there.

745
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 1: Are two things that I think it overlooked about this

746
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 1: Tennessee offense because so much of what Josh Hypel has

747
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: done has been predicated around the pass a it's the

748
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 1: ground assault. They've been a really good running team the

749
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:21,960
Speaker 1: last couple of years. It gets overlooked. Secondly, defense, you

750
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: think of a high powered offense, you don't necessarily think

751
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,400
Speaker 1: of defense. But this is a ferocious pass rushes here,

752
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 1: excuse us it is and so everyone talks about the offense.

753
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: But this defense is quietly top twenty ish maybe better

754
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 1: in the country. I am genuinely curious to see what

755
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 1: Grayson McCall looks like against this pass rush. He never

756
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 1: saw anything like this at Coastal, and he had his

757
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 1: moments a wee could go. I don't think he looked

758
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 1: as clean as NC State fans would would want to

759
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 1: see Week one though. That's okay, week one. We can

760
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 1: extend the grace all we want, But this.

761
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 2: Is you notice how like I, as an Oregon fan,

762
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 2: am suddenly like, let's start extending more grace to teams

763
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,760
Speaker 2: in week one? Everybody? Can we just be really cool

764
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 2: about everything?

765
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 1: How did that happen? Interesting? Yeah? Sorry?

766
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 2: At least I'm self aware. Sometimes I think we'll see

767
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 2: a lot of quicker stuff.

768
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna use guys like Casey Concepsion jet

769
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,919
Speaker 1: sweeps to try and stretch horizontally, maybe take some shots deep,

770
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 1: anything that freezes a defensive line. So I do think

771
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,439
Speaker 1: that's the matchup to watch. I really want to see

772
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: how they contend with that Tennessee pass rush. I've got

773
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 1: Tennessee thirty one twenty. They're my lock of the week,

774
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:37,240
Speaker 1: Wow of the week. What's the latest number? The latest

775
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: number is eight points in okavor of Tennessee. And I

776
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: struggled with this one too, I really did, because I

777
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 1: like both teams. I just like Tennessee a lot more.

778
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: Thirty one to twenty. My final lock it.

779
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 2: Up Dave Dorin five and nine against the spread against

780
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 2: ranked teams since twenty nineteen. Whatever that means to you.

781
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 2: I'm not expecting them to win against ranked team all

782
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 2: the time, but not covering is some sort of indication

783
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 2: that this could be a struggle for Ensis State if

784
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: you believe in trends such as that. My final score

785
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 2: here is per the legal pad, thirty four to twenty

786
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 2: one Tennessee. So we agree again, thirty four to twenty one.

787
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: We agree.

788
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,840
Speaker 2: The thing that the wild card element to this is

789
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 2: I still think Casey Concepcion is the best receiver on

790
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 2: the field for either team undeniably, and they use him

791
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 2: in creative ways, and he is that home run hitter,

792
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 2: He is that gravitational player. And I think Tennessee's receivers

793
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 2: are really really strong, but I think he's he's special

794
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 2: in a way that makes me wish John Miller, we're

795
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 2: calling this game just so you could pronounce Casey concepcion.

796
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,879
Speaker 2: But alas, I think NC State is in this game

797
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 2: for a bit. But the team speed and that pass

798
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 2: rush you talked about, I think is the difference here that, like,

799
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 2: even if you have questions about Tennessee's secondary, which I

800
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 2: think are fair questions, ball actually has to travel into

801
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 2: the secondary before the pass rush gets home for that

802
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,799
Speaker 2: to be tested. And so that's the worry here that

803
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,439
Speaker 2: this line goes a little bit nuts. And hey, look,

804
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 2: Grayson McCall is mobile. You can move them around.

805
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: Jamie Chadwell moved him around a ton at Liberty before

806
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 1: or excuse me, a ton at Coastal before he left

807
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: for Liberty, And so there's a case to be made

808
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: that they will do something similar to try and mitigate

809
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: that pass rush and take advantage of that secondary, which

810
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: is probably how you want to go at Tennessee's defense,

811
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 1: I'd assume I just don't see it. I think Tennessee

812
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: is a much more complete team. I like their defense

813
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: as a whole. I love their offense, I love their quarterback.

814
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,800
Speaker 1: I just I like both teams and just like Tennessee

815
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 1: a lot more. Okay, final big dog here before we

816
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: built some quads. Ten PM on peacock, Dan, you have

817
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: peacock over there.

818
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 2: I do have peacock. Yes, I did arrange that. As

819
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 2: a big ten alum, I made sure I had peacock.

820
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 2: This year, Boise stayed at your Oregon Ducks. Oregon favored

821
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 2: by nineteen and a half. I will remind you that

822
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 2: Ashton gent for Boise ran two sixty seven and six touchdowns.

823
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: It says here sixty two downs. Yeah, Oregon struggled a

824
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 1: little bit against Idaho. I guess we can extend some

825
00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: grace to your Ducks as well, if you're interested in that.

826
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: But yeah, look, if Oregon is as good as everybody thinks,

827
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 1: myself included, should they not cover the spread. Should they

828
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: not win this game going away? Probably?

829
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 2: If they are as good as we thought two weeks ago, yes,

830
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 2: yes they should. Now this game is fascinating which, by

831
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 2: the way, you mentioned the quad father thing. Is this

832
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:34,800
Speaker 2: our first I don't know if it's first ever, but

833
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,200
Speaker 2: it's definitely the first of the season where it's a

834
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:40,960
Speaker 2: four block quad day because there are enough of the

835
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 2: late night games that like you're like, yes, of course

836
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 2: there there's a quad worthwhile to build because it's Asu,

837
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 2: Mississippi State. What else is in that? I looked at

838
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,399
Speaker 2: it and I highlighted the four What else is late there?

839
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 1: Well, he stayed Oregon. Yeah, you've got you've got the

840
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: the Oregon game, got Texas Tech, Wazoo, You've got Mississippi State,

841
00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,840
Speaker 1: Arizona State, Oregon State, San Diego State, Utah State, USC

842
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: if you're interested in that. Even Liberty New Mexico State

843
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: could be interesting for a multitude of reasons. Yeah, there

844
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: are some good games in that late late window.

845
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oregon State, Geovanni McCoy's that could be fun. So yes,

846
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 2: anyway back to Oregon, Boise State. We'll see on the

847
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 2: Oregon offensive line, right, if they improve to pretty good, decent,

848
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 2: whatever your chosen adjective is, then Dylan Gabriel I think

849
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 2: will be more confident going downfield. Georgia Southern scored a

850
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 2: bunch of points. They're up in the I think early

851
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,879
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter against Boise State, and all due

852
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 2: respect to Georgia Southern, they're not Oregon now, and so

853
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 2: Oregon should be able to improve on offense and score

854
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,720
Speaker 2: more points than they were able to do against Idaho

855
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 2: last week. Should be And if there's a specific strength

856
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 2: right now with this Oregon team, it's probably what they're

857
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 2: looking like in terms of depth on that defensive line.

858
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,320
Speaker 2: And I think they can more than handle themselves against

859
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 2: the boise offensive line. And so Ashton Genty will not

860
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 2: go for two hundred US in my mind against this

861
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 2: Oregon front. He might bust a big run or two,

862
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: but I think Oregon's will be able to handle the

863
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 2: Boise to running game. And to me, the big question

864
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 2: is just comfort on offense with this new offensive line.

865
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 2: Health with this new offensive line. We'll see how they

866
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 2: are in the secondary. They weren't really tested last week,

867
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 2: but I don't anticipate a huge passing test. I'll due

868
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 2: respect to Maddox Madson, Yeah, if Oregon is what I

869
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 2: think a lot of us think they still can be.

870
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 2: The legal Pad says forty five twenty.

871
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,399
Speaker 1: Three Ducks and they cover. I think they win and cover.

872
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. I like they should win and cover.

873
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 1: They should win and cover. I still have real questions

874
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 1: about the Boise State defense. I think that's the issue

875
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: for Boise State this year.

876
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 2: They're sten that grace though Ty, it was a hot

877
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 2: day down there in Georgia. It was a hot day.

878
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 2: I think it could be a cooler day and it's

879
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 2: still going to be a bad defense. Okay, so we agree,

880
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 2: let's get to building some quads down. Let's be quad fathers.

881
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 1: I think about the heart, the passionate, the love, the commitment,

882
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 1: and the energy you're willing to put into it. That

883
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 1: man is Pom Platts, I believe his name. Back in

884
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: the nineties, became known as the quad Father. He was

885
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 1: five foot eight and a half and he had thirty

886
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:22,399
Speaker 1: inch quads, which seems like a lot. I have been

887
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 1: told over the last year from Olympic caliber lifting coaches,

888
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 1: do not do the quad father routine. You will cripple yourself.

889
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:37,200
Speaker 1: Full story. So he was building himself to be a

890
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 1: non football Emmett Smith essentially, and would ruin your quads

891
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 1: if you followed. Allegedly. The YouTube videos are comical. Do

892
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: not watch them on a full stomach. All right, the

893
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: man is into his quads. We are not endorsing the workout.

894
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 1: What we are doing, though, is playing the role of

895
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 1: a different kind of quad father. Oh yeah, YouTube, TV, Sling, Fubo,

896
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: all of these services out there, not a sponsor, absolutely

897
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: could be. Many of them give you the option to

898
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: put together a quadbox to watch multiple games at once.

899
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,560
Speaker 1: It's one of these great technological innovations that has come

900
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 1: our way in the streaming era of live sports. They

901
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 1: gave us the option a year ago. They built the

902
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: quads for us this year. There's at least some level

903
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 1: of customization. Can build your own. So what we started

904
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 1: doing a year ago, what we're going to continue doing

905
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 1: now is helping you build those quads.

906
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 2: It is funny how specific, right Tom Platts building quads.

907
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:39,319
Speaker 2: It's not even just the quad word.

908
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 1: It's building quad. We're building our quads just like Tom Platz.

909
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: I did.

910
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:45,840
Speaker 2: By the way, Google image search Emmett Smith and my

911
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 2: reference was correct. Dude was an absolute tree.

912
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 1: It's just a month to an absolute monster. We've got

913
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 1: the four windows of games here we're going to go through.

914
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,280
Speaker 1: We'll give you four in each, maybe a few more,

915
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: go through them very quickly. Are picks, Why we're including

916
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 1: them in our quad? What is to look forward to

917
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: in these matchups? And much much more, Dan Rubinstein, this week,

918
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: you are a designated quad father, So let's start with

919
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 1: the early window.

920
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 2: Yes, give me your four games that are going in

921
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 2: the quad. That would be quad father, Dan Corleoni, just

922
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 2: be very clear. Continue obviously Michigan Texas, and then I'm

923
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 2: gonna scoot over and add in Arkansas Oklahoma State Cowboys.

924
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 2: What touchdown seven and a half point favorites. I knowed

925
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 2: lines have changed, but somewhere in that region, Pitt at Cincinnati,

926
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 2: which is that's my Ashanti game of the week. It's

927
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 2: all about trust. It's all about trust. And then Georgia

928
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 2: Tech minus field goal, minus three on the road, Syracuse

929
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 2: home Dog. You're not putting k stay two lane in

930
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 2: your quad.

931
00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:47,359
Speaker 1: It's not there.

932
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,800
Speaker 2: It's not there yet because of the new quarterback factor

933
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 2: with Pitt Cincinnati, new quarterback factor with Arkansas, and new

934
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 2: coach factor with the franchise Fran Brown. So I will monitor,

935
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 2: maybe I'll have it on an iPad or something like

936
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 2: that just to keep an eye on, but not yet.

937
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:05,359
Speaker 1: I think this is a very weak quad. If I'm

938
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 1: being honest with you, Okay, you would rather have Tulane there,

939
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 1: I would, well, I am assuming that Texas Michigan kind

940
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,319
Speaker 1: of stands on its own. So my quad would be

941
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: the three games you mentioned plus Case on the second screen. Yeah,

942
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: two Lane's my home doog of the week. By the way,

943
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: Lane too the Yokos home dog of the week. This

944
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:33,760
Speaker 1: one's on ESPN at twelve Eastern Case State on the road,

945
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 1: favored by ten. I think they win the game, but

946
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 1: I think it's super ugly. I think it's an ugly game.

947
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,879
Speaker 1: I think it's twenty four to twenty. It's the kind

948
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,799
Speaker 1: of game where two Lane's going to try to run

949
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 1: it down their throats and as we talked about on

950
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 1: the Tuesday show, some reason to monitor Avery Johnson didn't game, Yes,

951
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:57,239
Speaker 1: didn't early look sharp. Throw in the football. I think

952
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: left a lot to be desired. So we know we

953
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:01,879
Speaker 1: can run, we know they can run, we know they

954
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 1: want to run. I think they will have to run

955
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:05,959
Speaker 1: in order to win this game. But I think it's close.

956
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,879
Speaker 1: I think it's ugly. I got too Lane at home,

957
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:13,240
Speaker 1: plus the points. I've also got Arkansas plus the points.

958
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: Why I really liked what I saw last week out

959
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: A tailing green. Yeah, I thought he looked really good.

960
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 1: And I think you were huge.

961
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 2: On Arkansas Pine Bluff going into the season, so huge

962
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 2: on app They really must have impressed you.

963
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: Continue. I think there's a good chance that Arkansas is

964
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 1: better than expected. I think the matchup to watch is

965
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 1: in the trenches here, Oklahoma State offensive line, Arkansas defensive line.

966
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: That's the whole game. The whole game is right there

967
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 1: in the trenches. Oklahoma State should win. But I also

968
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,359
Speaker 1: think this one's close. I think it's like thirty four

969
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 1: to twenty eight.

970
00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 2: So I don't know how you can have that type

971
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:52,440
Speaker 2: of confidence with Arkansas. They've they've shown absolutely nothing in

972
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,360
Speaker 2: terms of opponent and improvement. And you can believe in

973
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,359
Speaker 2: things you can believe in the portal, but I don't know.

974
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 2: Oklahoma State just seems like more of a proven commodity

975
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 2: to listen moment. Yeah, I'm with you. Why is the

976
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 2: line only seven and a half Oklahoma States at home?

977
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 2: It'd be different if this game we're at Arkansas and

978
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 2: you say, oh, seven and a half, I mean it's

979
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 2: week two for Vegas too. It's week two for Vegas.

980
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 1: But if that confidence is true, and if it's there

981
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,239
Speaker 1: in the betting public, why is that line only seven

982
00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 1: and a half. Shouldn't it be higher? I don't know.

983
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 2: To bait people into it, I think they set lines.

984
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:26,840
Speaker 2: Is bait Dan, That's something I do to bait people

985
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 2: into getting people on both sides. Yes, I guess. I

986
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 2: guess I'm going to take the Arkansas side. Okay, we

987
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,040
Speaker 2: can agree to disagree. I'm gonna take Oklahoma State here.

988
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,359
Speaker 2: I think offensively, I'm going to need to see something.

989
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,399
Speaker 2: I mean, I know Arkansas strength last year was their

990
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 2: defense because really poor offensive line play, But I don't know.

991
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:44,880
Speaker 2: I just need to see it in action with Arkansas

992
00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 2: before I feel good about it.

993
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 1: I'm going to go Pit outright at Cincy because I

994
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: can't resist a new offense ever, yep. And I'm going

995
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 1: to go Tech out right over Syracuse because for as

996
00:49:57,800 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: much as I like Fran Brown, I do feel like

997
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,879
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech's playing with a ton of momentum right now

998
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: given that week one week zero.

999
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going with Georgia Tech as well, especially because

1000
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: Syracuse just lost their best linebacker, great name, Marlo Wax

1001
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 2: hope he's able to return soon, but they're playing in

1002
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 2: a four to two five system, so losing your star linebacker.

1003
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:19,359
Speaker 2: I think he was all acc either first or second

1004
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 2: team last year. I don't remember, but he is one

1005
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 2: of the better players on the Syracuse defense. And so

1006
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,839
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech with their mo of running the hell out

1007
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,280
Speaker 2: of the ball with somebody named Haynes in some fashion,

1008
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,879
Speaker 2: I think it's an advantageous spot for Georgia Tech here,

1009
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,799
Speaker 2: and as long as their defense continues to improve under

1010
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:43,239
Speaker 2: whom tie the touch the touch, I think Georgia Tech

1011
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,959
Speaker 2: will be all right. Comm Accord and the receivers I think,

1012
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 2: because of how they finished last week, should have another

1013
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 2: nice game. But also, just like this, Syracuse run defense

1014
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:56,439
Speaker 2: was not good last week against Ohio. Again, extend grace,

1015
00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 2: extend grace. But I think Georgia Tech is built who

1016
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,839
Speaker 2: win this game on the road. So I'm going with

1017
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 2: some agreement with you. So well, we want to have

1018
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 2: Pitt as well.

1019
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 1: Pitch.

1020
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 2: I was going back and forth because you're, you know,

1021
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 2: Brendan Sorosby or Eli Holstein side with the steam.

1022
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,840
Speaker 1: You know me gotta go with the stem absolutely, So okay,

1023
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,000
Speaker 1: we mentioned the utsa Texas State game as well as

1024
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 1: a Syhawk game in the afternoon block. Give me four

1025
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,719
Speaker 1: other games if you're building a side quad, A side

1026
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: quad in the early window, side quad in the in

1027
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,800
Speaker 1: the afternoon and evening window, oh, afternoon evening window.

1028
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 2: Okay, So South Carolina Kentucky obviously really hoping Lenora Sellers

1029
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 2: and I don't even put last week on him specifically,

1030
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 2: Like the offensive line didn't seem to play super well.

1031
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 2: The play calling was kind of all over the place.

1032
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,880
Speaker 2: Receivers had drops, like there was a lot to be

1033
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 2: desired with the South Carolina offense. But now Kentucky defensive

1034
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,040
Speaker 2: players on the other side of the ball. Yeah, there

1035
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:53,360
Speaker 2: are absolute studs on this Kentucky defense. So so Kentucky's

1036
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 2: favor by ten. Yeah, this is an ABC game at

1037
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 2: three thirty eastern. Something that people should keep in mind.

1038
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,600
Speaker 1: I doubt any people listening to this listen to or watched,

1039
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 1: excuse me, South Carolina against ODU a week in right,

1040
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 1: that was a close game. To your point, they didn't

1041
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,080
Speaker 1: look great. South Carolina is going to look a lot

1042
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 1: different this year on offense because Spencer Rattler's gone, so

1043
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 1: they've ditched the aired out approach that they had with him,

1044
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 1: and it's going to be built a lot more around

1045
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:23,279
Speaker 1: Leonora Steller's who's a running quarterback and his legs. Yeah right,

1046
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 1: So in theory, you combine Sellers with Rocket Sanders, who

1047
00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:31,319
Speaker 1: they brought over in the transfer portal from Arkansas, that

1048
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 1: you forced teams to commit to the run. Just when

1049
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 1: you get them doing that, you pop it over the

1050
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 1: top with Nick Harber, who's got like Olympic caliber speed.

1051
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: Problem with that, Nick Harbor didn't touch the ball once

1052
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 1: last week, No, not at all. So if that's the

1053
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 1: theory of the case, to get him behind the defense

1054
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:48,879
Speaker 1: and break a big play that didn't happen. We didn't

1055
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:50,959
Speaker 1: see that against a team like an old dominion. Now

1056
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 1: might it happen against Kentucky? Okay, I'm just not confident

1057
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: it will. To your point, I'm not confident that this

1058
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 1: is going to be a better version of South Carolina.

1059
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:03,280
Speaker 1: I think it could be an exciting version the deeper

1060
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 1: we get into the season with a little bit of seasoning.

1061
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,880
Speaker 1: But like right now, against the team like Kentucky with

1062
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 1: its defense, if this offense is one dimensional, Kentucky makes

1063
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,120
Speaker 1: easy work of them. And this is a good Cats

1064
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: defense that's going to win field position, and frankly has

1065
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: an offense that's going to pull South Carolina appart. So

1066
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 1: I thought about locking this one up. I'm going to

1067
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,879
Speaker 1: go Kentucky minus to no. South Carolina won the last

1068
00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: couple though, right they did? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I

1069
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:32,720
Speaker 1: mean they're feisty. They're always feisty, and I don't always,

1070
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,040
Speaker 1: but yes, I do like that. They've got a lot

1071
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 1: back on defense, and I think there is a case

1072
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 1: to be made that this is a South Carolina team

1073
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 1: that's going to be led by its defense while the

1074
00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 1: offense gets itself worked out.

1075
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:45,440
Speaker 2: I just don't know how long the offense is going

1076
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 2: to take. I think that's right, especially upfront. They've got

1077
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,960
Speaker 2: a couple of studs on their defensive line. South Carolina does,

1078
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 2: and unfortunately for South Carolina, Kentucky does as well.

1079
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:55,480
Speaker 1: I think you're right.

1080
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:58,240
Speaker 2: I think Kentucky is also sort of in that prove

1081
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 2: it mode to me on offense that this offense is

1082
00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 2: going to work out, as you know, Kentucky people hope.

1083
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 2: So there is I think a good amount of push

1084
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,399
Speaker 2: pull here. But also what you touched on of like

1085
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:13,160
Speaker 2: how many times are whoever's calling this game gonna mention

1086
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:16,279
Speaker 2: Nick Harbor's world class speed versus how many times he

1087
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 2: actually catches the ball?

1088
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:18,359
Speaker 1: Yeah? Right?

1089
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 2: Are they gonna mention it three four times and he's

1090
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 2: gonna have one or two catches? They're like, at a

1091
00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 2: certain point, you feel like you got to get Nick

1092
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 2: Harbor's speed involved here, right, That's going to happen, probably

1093
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,800
Speaker 2: more than the actual catches, if you know. The Kentucky

1094
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,040
Speaker 2: secondary is what we think it can be. So I'm

1095
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 2: going with Kentucky here as well, though I don't love

1096
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,200
Speaker 2: being crazy confident about it.

1097
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:39,719
Speaker 1: It's not one of my favorite picks of the week.

1098
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 1: Give me three other games then that go in the quad.

1099
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:46,240
Speaker 2: I have Michigan State Maryland. Okay, I'm just I'm curious

1100
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 2: to see how Michigan State evolves from Week one.

1101
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:51,719
Speaker 1: I'm heavy Maryland on that one. I'm heavy Maryland as well.

1102
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 2: I really like that Billy Edwards and Ty Felton had

1103
00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,359
Speaker 2: that really nice connection in Week one against Yukon. It's

1104
00:54:56,440 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 2: Yukon whatever, but I think Maryland's in an advantage place.

1105
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 2: Auburn Cal to me is fascinating, Okay, I don't love

1106
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:06,439
Speaker 2: Cal in this moment. They didn't have a great Week one,

1107
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 2: and again extend grace, but justin Wilcox, traditionally speaking, there

1108
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:14,520
Speaker 2: have been down moments. Has been very good in September

1109
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 2: with Cal, like their non conference record, at least for

1110
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,279
Speaker 2: a long time was quite good. This was a close game.

1111
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 2: I think it was a fourteen to ten Auburn win

1112
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 2: at Cal last year. So not a ton separates these programs,

1113
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:29,520
Speaker 2: at least as we record this on Wednesday of game week.

1114
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:35,760
Speaker 2: I'm pretty curious about this, especially Auburn's ability to stretch

1115
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,280
Speaker 2: the field against the Cal defense got much better against

1116
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 2: Davis in the second half. They may have shut them

1117
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 2: out in the second half. I'm curious about Auburn's ability

1118
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 2: to evolve as an offense against Cal.

1119
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 1: So this is in my quad. I've got I got Maryland.

1120
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 1: I'm heavy on Maryland their minus set, I'm heavy on Auburn.

1121
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 1: They're thirteen and a half and there's still one spot

1122
00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 1: left in the quad. So I am going to inject

1123
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: Marshall at Virginia Tech. Spice there, right, Marshall beatum. I

1124
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 1: don't hate taking Marshall on the points here. I'm so

1125
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 1: sorry you're gonna have to keep that on.

1126
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 2: The board, perfectly love that for future Sauer Kraut Saturdays

1127
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 2: to come for.

1128
00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 1: Games that are circuses. Yeah, Virginia Tech's everybody's nineteen and

1129
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,640
Speaker 1: a half points, but Marshall's a decent side. Is that what?

1130
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 1: That's soccer people, that's what they say, A decent you know,

1131
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 1: a side, decent side. Yeah, okay, I'm just making sure

1132
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: I understand these these references. I'm I'm on Marshall plus

1133
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 1: the number here. I think that could be interesting and

1134
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,800
Speaker 1: four point thirty CW. I want to see what Virginia

1135
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 1: Tech looks like. I want to see what their follow

1136
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 1: up campaign looks like. After that loss on the road

1137
00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 1: ed Vandy got off to a really slow start. They

1138
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,719
Speaker 1: got a start quicker. I great star quicker, and not

1139
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 1: just against Marshall, but against whoever else they play is

1140
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,000
Speaker 1: part of their acc schedule. I feel okay about note

1141
00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 1: minus twenty eight and a half against Northern Yeah, I

1142
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:05,279
Speaker 1: mean that's a big number. I always feel kind of

1143
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:07,920
Speaker 1: weird about that, I think, and you look pretty good.

1144
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:10,720
Speaker 1: A week ago we talked about that on the Tuesday

1145
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:13,920
Speaker 1: episode that we did Northern Illinois. If they get that

1146
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 1: kind of quarterback play, if they can get that kind

1147
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 1: of pop on offense that I think changes the game

1148
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 1: for them, changes the dynamic in the MAC. I don't

1149
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,360
Speaker 1: know if it changes much in this game, though I

1150
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 1: can see. I can see Notre Dame running away with it.

1151
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 1: I think they probably should if they're as good as

1152
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: we think they are. But yeah, I'm I'm on Notre Dame.

1153
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 1: I guess minus whatever. Okay. The only other one I'll

1154
00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,520
Speaker 1: call out here at three point thirty on Fox, and

1155
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:40,360
Speaker 1: they're a bunch in this window. Baylor at Utah is

1156
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:44,160
Speaker 1: kind of interesting to me. Utah favored by fourteen points.

1157
00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 1: Utah should cover this point spread. But it's a Fox game.

1158
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:52,040
Speaker 1: It's a Ta Kwan Finn big game. It is a

1159
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 1: Baylor defense now against what amounts to I think a

1160
00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:59,080
Speaker 1: pretty good Utah offense with Cam Rising and the others back.

1161
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:03,720
Speaker 1: I think it's an interesting barometer for both sides. I

1162
00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,600
Speaker 1: want to see what these teams look like against a

1163
00:58:05,640 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 1: real opponent.

1164
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,720
Speaker 2: A lot of points. Yeah, I don't know. We'll say

1165
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,120
Speaker 2: I'm not touching that game. I think Utah wins that game,

1166
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 2: but that's a lot of points for me. By the way,

1167
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 2: Also in that specific window, I believe as I pulled

1168
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 2: the schedule back up in front of me. Three point

1169
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 2: thirty on True TV. By the way, ty all you

1170
00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 2: true fans, college football Mega Force Idaho Vandals on the

1171
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 2: road as we all have agreed on the road at Wyoming,

1172
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:33,880
Speaker 2: Wyoming lost by forty one points if my math serves

1173
00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,919
Speaker 2: to Arizona State last week. So if Wyoming is really

1174
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 2: struggling in near one of a new coach and college

1175
00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 2: football Mega Force Idaho is what we think they are

1176
00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 2: Jason Eck, future Alabama coach, that becomes kind of interesting

1177
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 2: to me for Idaho to start their season off against

1178
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,080
Speaker 2: two FBS teams as an FCS power, Like we'll kind

1179
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,240
Speaker 2: of learn tangentially what does this mean for how we

1180
00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:00,520
Speaker 2: reevaluate Asu or Oregon. Maybe a little bit, But I

1181
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,480
Speaker 2: don't know. That's kind of interesting to me if you're

1182
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,360
Speaker 2: in if you are in Big Sky country and like

1183
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 2: the Big skyt Conference with Idaho in.

1184
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 1: It, I don't know.

1185
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 2: That to me is an interesting game that you could

1186
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 2: like search for what channel True TV is on your

1187
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 2: local cable provider if that gets weird, If you want

1188
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,520
Speaker 2: two other nuggets. If we're here, please how sauce are

1189
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:22,760
Speaker 2: we talking though? U? Lightly sauced, moderately sauced, heavily sauced.

1190
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:28,240
Speaker 1: One is heavily one is lightly okay, Central Michigan at FIU,

1191

Speaker 1: excuse me, forgive me, they're given out pit bull pins

1192
00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 1: because now it's Pitbull Stadium of course Dale And if

00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 1: or not this episode, this show. I'd love to.

1196
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:45,439
Speaker 2: Will you wear a blazer with a pit bull lapel pin?

1197
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,919
Speaker 1: Oh, like Kelly would? I'd love that. I think I'll

1198
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 1: do it. I'd wear it around town. Yeah, I'd be

1199
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,560
Speaker 1: very proud of that pit bull pin. And then secondly,

1200
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 1: per friend Brett McMurphy in the Sam Houston u c

1201
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:59,240
Speaker 1: F game, UCF is going to wear helmet decals that

1202
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 1: were designed pediatric patients at Arnold Palmer Hospital for truck.

1203
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:05,160
Speaker 1: It's really cool. I like that and cool. UCF has

1204
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 1: awesome style to begin with, and they have cool alternate

1205
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:11,280
Speaker 1: uniforms and the space camp stuff. I mean, it's it's

1206
01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:13,320
Speaker 1: definitely pushing the limits and I think it's cool. But

1207
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 1: this is this is even better, So good on them.

1208
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 1: Let's move to the night window, Dan, give me a quad.

1209
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:21,480
Speaker 1: Give a quad in the night window.

1210
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:27,480
Speaker 2: Obviously we have Colorado, Nebraska, NC State, Tennessee as as mentioned.

1211
01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:29,640
Speaker 1: So do you want two more or three more? I want?

1212
01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,280
Speaker 2: I want a side quad. Give me four more a

1213
01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:31,920
Speaker 2: side quad?

1214
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:36,440
Speaker 1: Okay, app State Clemson seventeen points, seventeen. I want app State.

1215
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: I have app State highlighted on my pick sheet. I

1216
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:44,480
Speaker 1: want app State in the points. I don't win, You're

1217
01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 1: not gonna win.

1218
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:48,280
Speaker 2: They can make it interesting, they can make it tasty

1219
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:48,840
Speaker 2: for a little bit.

1220
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 1: This is this is the best team Sean Clark has had.

1221
01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,040
Speaker 1: I think they can score. I don't think they can

1222
01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 1: win it. They can score. Absolutely. It's going to be

1223
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,800
Speaker 1: interesting to watch the Clemson d fencer front in this

1224
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 1: game because they're very talented, but as I said in

1225
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 1: the preview, there is a greenness to them and how

1226
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 1: long it takes them to mesh will be very very

1227
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 1: important in determining how far this team goes this season.

1228
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:14,960
Speaker 1: This is an app State team that we know likes

1229
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:19,400
Speaker 1: to throw. If Clemson can't get good pressure on Joey Aguar,

1230
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:22,040
Speaker 1: he's going to pick him apart he will. They will

1231
01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:25,320
Speaker 1: score points. So I got a thirty eight to twenty four.

1232
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,840
Speaker 1: Thing right around that number. But I'm app State's a

1233
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 1: good side, man, They're a good team.

1234
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 2: Thirty three to twenty Clemson. It does not cover another

1235
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 2: revenge spot game after Illinois looked pretty horrendous throwing the

1236
01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:39,360
Speaker 2: ball last year in Lawrence.

1237
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 1: Kansas.

1238
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 2: Kansas minus six at Illinois and have the unenviable task

1239
01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 2: of trying to tackle Caden Figan in the open field.

1240
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 2: Perhaps if the Illinois run game gets going, but yet

1241
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:55,320
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't trust this Illinois passing attack quite yet.

1242
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 2: If Kansas is able to score, I'm gonna need to

1243
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,560
Speaker 2: see the improved Illinois defense over the course of the

1244
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:02,520
Speaker 2: season before I fully believe again, I'm going Kansas here

1245
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 2: to win. Let's call it thirty three eighteen.

1246
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 1: This is a weird line. Yeah, this is a weird line.

1247
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,600
Speaker 1: Night time in Champagne though, tie Champagne, middle of nowhere. Yeah,

1248
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 1: I'm I'm on the points. Give me the points.

1249
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 2: Illinois plus six, okay, fair enough? I have in this

1250
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:24,400
Speaker 2: side quad us F Bama, m Okay, So this is

1251
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 2: what thirty thirty one points. Bama just beat Western Kentucky

1252
01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:32,360
Speaker 2: sixty three to kill or something like that. USF defense

1253
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,640
Speaker 2: is not ready for what Caylin de Boor and Jaln

1254
01:02:34,680 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 2: Molroe and Ryan Williams whoever else is going to throw

1255
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:36,960
Speaker 2: at them.

1256
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 1: They're just not.

1257
01:02:38,280 --> 01:02:41,920
Speaker 2: But from a pure entertainment standpoint, to get this USF

1258
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 2: offense Byron Brown involved in my Saturday night, yeah, I'll party. Yeah,

1259
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:48,680
Speaker 2: I'll get down with a little USF at night.

1260
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,680
Speaker 1: Sure, I like that. I like that. And you know what,

1261
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 1: if we're here, if we're talking about fun quarterbacks, let's

1262
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 1: throw Virginia and Wake in one as well. Yeah. I

1263
01:02:57,880 --> 01:02:59,760
Speaker 1: had this highlighted then I went us F Bama and

1264
01:02:59,760 --> 01:03:02,680
Speaker 1: in stay. Yeah, let's throw Anthony Calandria, your boy hammer

1265
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 1: and Hank Bachmeyer into the quad wall favored by two

1266
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:08,000
Speaker 1: at home.

1267
01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:12,760
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm gonna go Virginia out right. I have Virginia

1268
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 2: here as well. That's a trust thing to me. We'll

1269
01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,360
Speaker 2: see about Hank Bachmeyer. But I think Virginia has the

1270
01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 2: better chance to come off the field more often on defense.

1271
01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:23,560
Speaker 2: And this should point out this is a look ahead

1272
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 2: spot I believe for Alabama. Do they have Wisconsin next week?

1273
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:27,080
Speaker 1: Yes?

1274
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:30,240
Speaker 2: In Madison. Yes, Okay, that's what we kind of have

1275
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:34,080
Speaker 2: to start talking about. One extending grace and two look

1276
01:03:34,120 --> 01:03:36,960
Speaker 2: ahead spots right as schedules get a little bit more difficult,

1277
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,600
Speaker 2: or like in the case of what time is the

1278
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:40,360
Speaker 2: USC game?

1279
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:41,080
Speaker 1: Is that late night?

1280
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:45,040
Speaker 2: It's late night a potential letdown spot right, shorter week

1281
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:47,680
Speaker 2: for sc after playing Sunday night, huge emotional win in

1282
01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 2: the desert.

1283
01:03:48,520 --> 01:03:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1284
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 2: So we're gonna get into that territory as well. Any

1285
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:52,440
Speaker 2: other games at night for you.

1286
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:56,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm interested in Georgia Southern at Nevada, Okay, because

1287
01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,960
Speaker 1: Nevada was a team that we spoke about in the preseason.

1288
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,560
Speaker 2: It's one of the worst in college football, and.

1289
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:06,440
Speaker 1: Through two weeks, the choke hold is real, man, it

1290
01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:09,480
Speaker 1: is real. They have been feisty. They are a one

1291
01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 1: and a half point dog at home against Georgia Southern.

1292
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:14,840
Speaker 1: I'm not saying anything. I'm not even making a pick here,

1293
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:17,280
Speaker 1: but that's been interesting to follow. Every year we have

1294
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 1: teams like this that you don't expect a whole lot

1295
01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:22,919
Speaker 1: out of them, and then suddenly they just they play

1296
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 1: a lot better than expected. I think Nevada may have

1297
01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 1: a case to be made there as what those teams.

1298
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:31,360
Speaker 1: What conference is Nevada in that is in Mount West

1299
01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 1: forty five hundred feet above sea level, Reno, Nevada. Let's

1300
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,680
Speaker 1: keep it in mind. Close out the quads. Give me

1301
01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,440
Speaker 1: give me your late night window, late late night window,

1302
01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:42,480
Speaker 1: your late night squad.

1303
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 2: Texas Tech, Wazoo YEP, in addition to Oregon Boise State.

1304
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:51,040
Speaker 2: It's bumping out West Ty because obviously it is the

1305
01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:52,960
Speaker 2: late night that's where all these games are occurring.

1306
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 1: Texas tach Wazoo. You got the Kyle Williams is the

1307
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 1: transfer from Wazoo to Texas Tech, and he popped off

1308
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 1: last week. It'll be a much better defense than Wazoo

1309
01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 1: this week than it was last week.

1310
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,680
Speaker 2: But I have Texas Tech here. Need to see it

1311
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:10,320
Speaker 2: out of out of Wazoo to me before I fully

1312
01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 2: feel great about them. But I'm a believer in Texas

1313
01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:17,120
Speaker 2: Tech ceiling on offense, especially running the ball with Taj Brooks.

1314
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm on Tech. We got to include Mississippi State

1315
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 1: Arizona State. Arizona State's favored by six and a half.

1316
01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:25,000
Speaker 1: I have no idea who to pick in that game.

1317
01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:28,040
Speaker 2: By the way, just before you're right to move on.

1318
01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 2: But makes me a little bit sad that this is

1319
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:33,960
Speaker 2: like a Mike Leach matchup, the Texas Tech Wazoo match up,

1320
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 2: the Leech connection not around to fully enjoy the.

1321
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 1: The Lubbock Pullman connection continue. Then I've got Oregon State

1322
01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 1: san Diego State, yes, in there as well. Oregon State

1323
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:50,040
Speaker 1: favored by four. You mentioned usc Us season this window

1324
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 1: as well, They're favored by twenty eight and half against

1325
01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:52,320
Speaker 1: Utah State.

1326
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,720
Speaker 2: All right, I have ASU over Mississippi State. I'm gonna

1327
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:57,600
Speaker 2: have to see it from Blake Shape and Jeff Levy

1328
01:05:57,640 --> 01:05:59,560
Speaker 2: before I believe in it in the desert, and I

1329
01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 2: was really coouraged by Sam Levitt, Colin Levit or leave it,

1330
01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:07,000
Speaker 2: go Sun Devils with ASU, and I have Geovanni McCoy

1331
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:10,680
Speaker 2: in Oregon State at San Diego State. I actually really

1332
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 2: liked what Danie O'Neil is, the freshman quarterback for San

1333
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:16,520
Speaker 2: Diego State, the first true freshman starter for the Aztecs,

1334
01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 2: I think in their history. But I'm going to go

1335
01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:21,040
Speaker 2: Oregon State with their ability to run the ball. You

1336
01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 2: saw them on the ground last week. It was jam

1337
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,960
Speaker 2: Miller and Anthony Hankerson got loose, so I think they're

1338
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 2: gonna be able to control the game offensively on the road.

1339
01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:31,480
Speaker 1: Before we move on, Dan and put a bow on

1340

Speaker 1: this show. Yeah, if you're in the market for live

Speaker 2: learning about college football, listening to college football from the

1352
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:14,400
Speaker 2: Varsity app is great.

1353
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:18,040
