00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: This is Fox Sports Radios Countdown to Kickoff, presented by

10

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: former Penn State All American, Rich Morenberger and pix Wife's

12
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: lead Betty analyst Jared Smith.

13
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 4: Oh, welcome in here, happy Saturday morning, as we get

14
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 4: you all set for a smorgasboard of ball over here.

15
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 4: And I just gotta say.

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 5: My goodness, Virginia Tech got hosed last night. I'm very

17
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 5: curious to find that what you guys thought. But just

18
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 5: as Ilo said in his top of the hour update,

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 5: there was a hail Mary.

20
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 4: At the end of the game.

21
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 5: Virginia Tech is trailing and there's just a couple of

22
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 5: seconds to go against Miami. Virginia Tech throws a hail Mary.

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 5: There's a massive bodies in the back of the end zone.

24
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 5: Virginia Tech comes down with the football and then it

25
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 5: gets knocked out of the wide receiver's hands. They initially,

26
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 5: the officials initially call it a touchdown, and then they

27
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 5: review it and they say calls overturned.

28
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 4: Miami wins. And here's the deal.

29
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 5: Normally, as the Virginia Tech coach said, if a replay

30
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 5: takes that long, it's not overturned. The standard is it's conclusive,

31
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 5: it's indisputable video evidence.

32
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 4: That was not the case.

33
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 5: You can tell me that Virginia Tech didn't catch the football, okay,

34
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 5: but you can't tell me that was conclusive and indisputable.

35
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 5: And if that's the standard, Virginia Tech got screwed last night.

36
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 4: And my heart goes out.

37
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 5: To any money line better who was about to cash

38
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 5: in on the Hokies. And then the officials are like, yeah, psych,

39
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 5: Miami wins.

40
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 3: Wow.

41
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

42
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 6: Integrity is compromised when you have bad results as a

43
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 6: result of bad officiating, and that's what that is. This

44
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 6: is why people believe in home field advantage when it

45
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 6: comes to close calls in games, because I bet you

46
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 6: part of the calculus and I'm not saying all of it,

47
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 6: we're all humans, but some of the calculus is Hey,

48
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 6: I got to get out of here with my life.

49
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 6: You know what I mean, Like this is going to

50
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 6: be a chaotic finish to an already chaotic game. That

51
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 6: we're taking too long on this call. So I mean

52
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 6: all of a sudden, from just a standpoint of how

53
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 6: much is going to be thrown at us as we're

54
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 6: making our way off the field and what will be

55
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 6: thrown at us from the officiating standpoint, what will be

56
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 6: thrown at us as we're making our way off the field.

57
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 2: I think that was calculated, and again.

58
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 6: Maybe somewhat subconsciously, but this is the reason why I

59
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 6: hate instant replay. I hate instant replay because it robs

60
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 6: us of what's special about sports. Sometimes it helps because

61
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 6: human error is a real thing. But guess what. Sports

62
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,399
Speaker 6: are sort of built around human error. And I think

63
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 6: that we're a lot more forgiving when it's athletes making mistakes,

64
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 6: not by much, but a lot more than when compared

65
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 6: to officials. But if we have integrity, then we don't

66
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 6: have anything to worry about on bang bang calls.

67
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 2: Last night, that was a bang bang call.

68
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 6: If you believe in your officials and you believe they

69
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 6: have an integrity, then you go with their first call,

70
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 6: and even if it's a ah boy, man, that's fifty

71
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 6: to fifty, it's still a close enough call that in

72
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 6: real time it was called a touchdown. Hoki's win. Let's

73
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 6: move on with our lives.

74
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 3: What a game.

75
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 7: I thought that game was gonna go a very different direction.

76
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 7: I really thought that was right. We've talked about Miami

77
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 7: on the show. You give cam Ward and that offense

78
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 7: a ton of credit. They've looked the part.

79
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 3: Through the first few weeks.

80
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 7: But the looming specter of Mario crystal Ball and just

81
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 7: the eggs that he has laid throughout the course of

82
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 7: his coaching career. Oh yeah, I felt that Miami was

83
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 7: going to drop a game at some point.

84
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 3: I did not think it was going to be this one.

85
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 7: I thought the matchup really favored Miami, especially offensively against

86
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 7: that Virginia Tech defense. But cam Ward started a little

87
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 7: slow through a couple interceptions, didn't really get into the

88
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 7: flow of the offense until the second half.

89
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 3: It was his lowest completion percentage of the season.

90
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 7: Made some really I don't want to say boneheaded plays,

91
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 7: but just he.

92
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 3: Wasn't as as.

93
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 7: Buttoned up as the Miami offense has been in weeks

94
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 7: past Virginia Tech.

95
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 3: Man, I don't know.

96
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 7: I don't know how you, especially considering they started the

97
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 7: year with a couple of really tough losses last week.

98
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 7: Loss is a favorite to Rutgers, loss is a favorite

99
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 7: to Vandy, and the opener like that would have erased

100
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 7: all of that. If you go on the road and

101
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 7: you beat Miami on a Friday night in a standalone game.

102
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 7: As a top ten team, Virginia Jack had some high

103
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 7: hopes coming into the year.

104
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 3: I I I hated the overturn.

105
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 7: I did you gotta keep that call on the field,

106
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 7: And there's really not much else you could say. It went,

107
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 7: it went, It happened. So it was such a long

108
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 7: period of time there was so it was almost like

109
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 7: the entire like circle like it was like, oh, Miami's

110
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 7: gonna win up Virginia Jaxson going up. The game's rigged up, everything,

111
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 7: everything sucks. Yeah, Like it was like a full spectrum

112
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,119
Speaker 7: of emotions in the time that the play was being

113
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 7: reviewed and that's how long it took. I hate that

114
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 7: it was overturned. It was this is the state of

115
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 7: college football that we are in, and Miami gets to it.

116
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, I can could complain about

117
00:05:58,440 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 3: it until I'm blue in.

118
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 4: The face, but it's just the way that it went down, man, craziness.

119
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 5: We'll see what happens today. If we're in store for

120
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 5: more craziness.

121
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 3: I'm sure we are.

122
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 2: Now.

123
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 5: I'm curious where you guys are because this is a

124
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 5: really good slate. We've got four ranked versus ranked games today,

125
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 5: including your Penn State Nitney Lyons, Jared and Rich right

126
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 5: got a big one against Illinois, my Notre Dame fighting Irish.

127
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 5: I didn't go there, but it's my hometown South Bend

128
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 5: and they're hosting Louisville. Are you looking at ranked versus

129
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 5: ranked big game hunting? You're looking at Georgia at Alabama.

130
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 5: That is the juiciest, sexiest matchup of the night, of

131
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 5: the entire day. Do you go there first? Do you

132
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 5: look elsewhere? What are you excited about today?

133
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 6: I mean, obviously, my alma mater is playing against a

134
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 6: ranked team and they're ranked themselves, So the Penn State

135
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 6: Illinois game has my attention.

136
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: But I mean, come on, come on.

137
00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 6: When it's served up like this, Alabama hosting Georgia, Georgia,

138
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 6: the slimmest, the favorites on the road in Tuscaloosa. This

139
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 6: doesn't have the same panash I guess is the word

140
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 6: I'll use to describe it that it did when it

141
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 6: was the protege facing the master. But still even with

142
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 6: Kaylin de boor there as the new head coach doing

143
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 6: special things with Jalen Milroe, this has all the excitement

144
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 6: you're hoping for. You know, there's everything's on the line,

145
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 6: you know, seeding, when the playoffs come, Heisman watch.

146
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 2: This is fun stuff.

147
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 6: This is what college football is supposed to look like,

148
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 6: especially in that prime time slot.

149
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 7: You guys aren't excited for some of these other random

150
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 7: games today, like I don't know, TCU, Kansas, South Florida, Tulane.

151
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 3: That's not that none of those games are what your whistle.

152
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 7: Florida State, SMU, Laria State bouncing back last week.

153
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 3: But by the way, now you truly sound.

154
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,119
Speaker 2: Like the betting expert on the show.

155
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 7: I'm stoked about Sam Houston State host in Texas State.

156
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 3: That's the game of the day, come off. But let's

157
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 3: get on board to train here.

158
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 7: No, I come on, it's it's Bam and Georgia and

159
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 7: you're talking to someone who is absolutely like I saw

160
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 7: our pal Jonas Knox and labar A Ringtons doing the

161
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 7: show from State College yesterday, so jacked up for that weekend.

162
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 7: And what's gonna happen. I'm assuming it's going to be

163
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 7: a resounding win. The market is kind of telling you

164
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 7: Penn State is just a massive, massive overmatch for Illinois.

165
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,119
Speaker 7: We'll see how close that game is in the fourth quarter.

166
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 7: I expect Georgia Obama to be an absolute kne knocker.

167
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 7: I mean, and we'll get into the deep dive a

168
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 7: little later, but I'll give you the ten thousand feet view.

169
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 7: There's a chance that Alabama's a home dog for the

170
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 7: first time in twenty years. Basically, it doesn't happen two

171
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 7: thousand and seven, the last time they were a home dog.

172
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 7: One hundred and thirteen straight home games. They've been favored. Now,

173
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 7: the market's kind of telling us they might not close

174
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 7: a home dog.

175
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 2: We have seen a.

176
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 7: Little fluctuation over the last twenty four hours, a little money,

177
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 7: a little nibble on the tide. But how about Georgia

178
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 7: forty eight oh against everybody not named Alabama in their

179
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 7: last fifty one, one and two against Bama.

180
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 3: So it just I've i really hope.

181
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 7: I really hope it's a close game because it has

182
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 7: the potential to be one of those we remember for

183
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 7: the whole season.

184
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 4: And I like that.

185
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 5: Listen, there was so much said about the twelve team

186
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 5: playoff and how at times it was gonna water down

187
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 5: the regular season. It's just you have more margin for error.

188
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 5: I'll say, going into this game tonight between Georgia and Bama, shure,

189
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 5: doesn't feel like that. I haven't felt all week, like, eh,

190
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 5: shoulder shrug. The loser is probably still gonna make the

191
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 5: playoff anyway, right, It doesn't feel like that at all.

192
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 5: So if anything, the twelve team playoff it might water

193
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 5: down a couple of matchups really late in the regular season,

194
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 5: but this early, it's not watering anything down.

195
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 6: No, no, because I still feel the consequences of when

196
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 6: great team face each other, both from seeding in the postseason,

197
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 6: which is going to be highly important as we edge

198
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 6: closer and closer to the months that matter in college football,

199
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 6: but also because of individual accomplishment. How important, you know, look,

200
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 6: the highly esteemed prize at the end of the season,

201
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,359
Speaker 6: the Heisman.

202
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 2: But I mean just.

203
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 6: Think about this, you know, and Jared, I really didn't

204
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 6: follow this as much until you and I started talking,

205
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 6: But all of the individual accomplishment awards that you can

206
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 6: bet on, like all of a sudden, there is national

207
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 6: interest in these races down the stretch of the season.

208
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 6: So these early matchups really matter, if not to most,

209
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 6: to some, And it's to me like that's it, Like

210
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 6: this is the height of college football. When you have

211
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 6: top five team against top five team and it's placed

212
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 6: anywhere on the schedule, it has my attention. And so yeah,

213
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 6: like last night, even though the result volt were weird

214
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 6: at the end with Miami Virginia Tech, that was still

215
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 6: one of those college football classics. You know, you have

216
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 6: a great quarterback out to a slow start and then

217
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 6: a fun finish. I'm hoping for the same minus the

218
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 6: instant replay a controversy at the end of this one

219
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 6: between Bama and UH and Georgia.

220
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 3: Let's let's pray this game not decided by instinari play.

221
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 7: You're you're one hundred percent right about the awards, Like

222
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 7: you got you got back. That's sixteen to one to

223
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 7: win the Heisman. You got Milroe plus six fifty. One

224
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 7: of those guys is gonna fall. One of those guys,

225
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 7: is gonna drop. I think it's fair to say if

226
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 7: Alabama and Jalen Milroe are very explosive in this game

227
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 7: and they pull this game out, doesn't matter what the

228
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 7: score is. If Jalen Milroe plays well and Alabama wins

229
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 7: by one, I think he probably deserves to be the

230
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 7: Heisman favorite tomorrow if they win by like ten, double

231
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 7: digit and he definitely he's definitely gonna be the favorite

232
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 7: tomorrow if they win by double digits or you know,

233
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 7: going away, I think Carson.

234
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 3: Beck and again we'll get into the deep dive later.

235
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 7: I think that's the side of the market that I'm

236
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 7: a little more curious in because he's coming off the

237
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 7: bad game, so you're getting a little bit of a

238
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 7: discount already. Speaking of discounts, when the numbers open up

239
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 7: for next week, whoever loses this game, let's say Georgia

240
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 7: wins by a field goal. Alabama's at Vandy next week,

241
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 7: if they push down Alabama's power rating for losing this game,

242
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 7: that's a Bilo spot on Alabama. Whoever loses this game

243
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 7: is probably a really good bet. Next week, Georgia has

244
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 7: Auburn at home and Bama or Bama's at Vandy. Like,

245
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 7: to me, those are the things that I think about now.

246
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 7: Obviously the game is something I'm thinking about, but you're

247
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 7: always one move ahead.

248
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 3: Really, it's like three moves ahead.

249
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 7: I'm thinking about what Bama's number will be next week

250
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 7: if they lose, what Georgia's number will be next week

251
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 7: if they lose.

252
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 3: These are just.

253
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 7: Things that when I wake up in the morning on

254
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 7: a Saturday and my prep is already done for the day,

255
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 7: I have nothing left to do but watch the game

256
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 7: and enjoy it. I'm thinking about that next week and

257
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 7: how can I get ahead of the market.

258
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 8: So it's it's a tireless job, but there is so

259
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 8: much opportunity in the college football markets because of what

260
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 8: we talk about, with the playoff being this kind of

261
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 8: new specter and all these teams kind of jockeying, and

262
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 8: you know, we're only in week five and we've already

263
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 8: seen so much.

264
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 3: So it's gonna be I am so jacked up for

265
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 3: this Bama game. I think we're gonna let a lot

266
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 3: about both teams.

267
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what real fast.

268
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 5: I hope what happened last night in the Virginia Tech

269
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 5: Miami game is the exact same thing that happens in

270
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 5: this Georgia Alabi game.

271
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 4: I'm dead serious because here's the thing.

272
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 5: Like these games, these high profile games, these SEC games,

273
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 5: and it's gonna sound.

274
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 4: Like it matters more like but it does. There's a reason.

275
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 4: That's the slogan it does.

276
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 5: It matters more if we have what happened last night

277
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 5: happened today at Bama. Think about some of these epic

278
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 5: games that have nicknames like Kick six, the Grave Digger

279
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 5: last year, the play that Alabama ran that was a

280
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 5: minie hail Mary against Auburn.

281
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 4: We've got nicknames for these games. If you have what

282
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 4: happened last night, like Virginia Tech Miami, it's one of

283
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 4: those like, wow, did you see the game last night?

284
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 4: Was crazy? They'll talk about this for decades.

285
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 5: If it happens in Georgia Alabama, it'll have a nickname

286
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 5: in ten minutes. I don't know what they're gonna come

287
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 5: up with. We'll come up with something that you remember

288
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 5: and never forget.

289
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 7: Budge Mary something something will be the case.

290
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: But uh, fau Mary something fake of the fae Mary.

291
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: Now listen.

292
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 6: I also think that this is early legitimacy for killin

293
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 6: de boor, like you look at this game and how

294
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 6: important this is for one person on the football field.

295
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 6: I could make the argument that it is the most

296
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 6: important game of his entire career, because again, he'll play

297
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 6: more important games here coming up, even this season, But

298
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 6: right now this is the biggest one of him his life,

299
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 6: and so I can't even imagine what's swimming through him

300
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 6: right now, sitting in the hotel room getting ready to

301
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 6: call this football game. He's done a good job with

302
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 6: Jayleen Milrow this season so far. He's built an offense

303
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 6: around his skill set. We'll see if it holds up

304
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 6: against America's best passing defense.

305
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 2: Today.

306
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 6: You called Saban this week. I bet you he might have.

307
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 6: I bet you he might have. You know a couple

308
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 6: of tips. Coaches do that a lot. I hear it

309
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 6: every week talking to head football coaches who they will

310
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 6: will contact their buddies around you know, you know, around

311
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 6: the water cooler to get some tips.

312
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

313
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 7: I'm willing to bet that Kirby Smart did not call

314
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 7: it Dan Lanning because he's been on the record to

315
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 7: say that Lanning's defense has had very little success against

316
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 7: Alabama's You know what.

317
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 5: I would be very surprised if the Boar and Saban

318
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 5: didn't talk this week. I'm wondering if Saban called the Boor.

319
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 5: That's what I'm wondering, you.

320
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 3: Know, mister media now right, I'm watching him on him.

321
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 4: He wanted to be involved. Remember when he stepped aside.

322
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 4: He's like, I'm still here. Yeah, I'm still involved, you know.

323
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 4: So yeah, it'd be that'd be ridiculous for Debor not

324
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 4: to talk to Saban. You have to put your team

325
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 4: in a better position, you know.

326

Speaker 2: All right, let's do.

353
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: This letho Big Twelve matchup.

354
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:40,160
Speaker 9: Of the deck.

355
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, that would be Oklahoma State at Kansas State. So

356
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 5: really disappointing losses for each team last week. Kansas State

357
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 5: just ran into a BYU buzzsaw last week.

358
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 4: That was crazy. Ye have blown out on the road.

359
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 5: And then you had Oklahoma State they were at home

360
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 5: against Utah and the weekly is Cam rising playing?

361
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 3: Is he not well?

362
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 5: He wasn't playing and Oklahoma State still lost that game.

363
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 5: So hopefully for both teams, they're looking for a get

364
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 5: right spot. And the question for Oklahoma State is when

365
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 5: are they gonna get Ali Gordon going?

366
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 4: If you look at what Ali Gordon did last season,

367
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 4: the star running back at Oklahoma State, he had some

368
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 4: games you just look at.

369
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 5: His log and it was it was feast or famine.

370
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 5: But it was much more feast last year where you

371
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 5: have some games where he didn't crack fifty yards rushing,

372
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 5: but if he cracked fifty yards rushing, he might go

373
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 5: for two hundred plus right or the high one hundred plus.

374
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 5: And he has not gotten to the fifty yardage mark

375
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 5: this season yet. So against a Kansas State defense, I

376
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 5: don't know that Oli Gordon's gonna get going again. And

377
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 5: he is what makes that offense really go. Ellen Bowman

378
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 5: has done his thing throwing the ball, but to make

379
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 5: that offense truly go, they need Oli Gordon and he

380
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 5: just he hasn't been there yet behind an offensive line

381
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 5: that's just not getting it done.

382
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, they need Oli Gordon to go. And he went

383
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 6: against the Wildcats last year. He had over one hundred

384
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 6: and thirty yards and a touchdown in that win, and

385
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 6: that was an hour win a season ago for the Okis.

386
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, this is a must win situation.

387
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 6: For these two programs if you really think about the implications.

388
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 6: They start this season two to three behind Utah in

389
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 6: the Big Twelve rankings, the preseason rankings, and because of

390
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 6: kind of a calamitous start for both programs, they face

391
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 6: each other with a lot on the line here for

392
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 6: the Big Twelve championship.

393
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 2: You know this is going to be.

394
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 6: A huge or I should say a hugely important game,

395
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 6: probably one of the most underrated games on the college

396
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 6: football docket today.

397
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think the loser's done in the Big Twelve. Yeah,

398
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 7: it just there's just too many teams and it's a

399
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 7: you know, it's a big, more robust field this year,

400
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 7: and you've already got BYU's looked good.

401
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 3: You see, it's got a big game today against Colorado.

402
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 7: I know it's not a conference I know, excuse me,

403
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 7: that is a conference game now. It's it's really tough

404
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 7: to keep track of who's in this conference.

405
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 4: But just when you figure it out, it's gonna change again.

406
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 3: It's gonna change again.

407
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,040
Speaker 7: Bowman's a seventh year quarterback, and he's playing like a

408
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 7: like a freshman, like he's coming off the worst game

409
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 7: of his career, sub fifty percent completion rate against Utah,

410
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 7: just not making throws. Four games this year, it's like

411
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 7: two really good too really bad.

412
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 3: Jeckle in High.

413
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 7: Like the two wins against Tulsa South Dakota State look great,

414
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 7: eighty percent adjusted accuracy moving the ball down the field.

415
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 7: Sub sixty percent in the win over Arkansas and the

416
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 7: loss to Utah. So which Alan Bowman, are we gonna

417
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 7: get again? Seventh year of college football? To quote Tobby boy,

418
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 7: I know plenty of people that went to school for

419
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 7: seven years. They're called doctors, but Alan Bowman is.

420
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 3: Not case State.

421
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 7: We were talking about this, Brian, because we were doing

422
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 7: the show DC a couple weeks ago. They look great

423
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 7: that Friday night against Arizona, just absolutely shut down Arizona.

424
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 7: And then they come back the next week right outscore

425
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 7: co Zona thirty one seven. Then you get beat thirty

426
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 7: eight nine the next week against BYU, like just completely

427
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 7: opposite end of the spectrum results. The Cougar scored thirty

428
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 7: one unanswered in that game, Like you cannot give up

429
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 7: thirty one unanswered points in a college football game and

430
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 7: expect us to take you seriously. Avery, Johnson's still very

431
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 7: much struggling with the accuracy. Has not had a game

432
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 7: above eight yards per attempt all year. The time to

433
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 7: throw rates over three seconds. He's taken four sacks in

434
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 7: the last two games. He's just not quite in sync

435
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 7: with the rest of the offense. Case State runs it

436
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 7: really well, like that's that's their vibe. Oli Gordon, you

437
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 7: would expect him to run it well, but hasn't had

438
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 7: more than fifty yards against an FBS team all year.

439
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 7: So I really struggle with with where I'm at with

440
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,160
Speaker 7: this game. We did see some pretty sharp money come

441
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 7: in on Kansas State money line earlier in the week, and.

442
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 3: That tells me two things.

443
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 7: One, all right, Kansas State seems to be the quote

444
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,959
Speaker 7: unquote sharp side as I do my air quotes.

445
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: But why did you lay the points?

446
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 7: Like It's just I don't know if there's a lot

447
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 7: of confidence in the market for k State as a favorite,

448
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 7: but this is a I don't really know where this

449
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 7: game is gonna go. I think k State wins, but

450
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 7: I honestly could see.

451
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 3: It going in either direction.

452
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 4: No interesting, And yeah, like you said, Jared. That was

453
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 4: the only team.

454
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 5: It was an FCS team that Ali Gordon cracked fifty

455
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 5: yards against in these four games. It was South Dakota

456
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,199
Speaker 5: State the first game of the year. And listen, that

457
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 5: was the game where remember Ali Gordon got popped for

458
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 5: a dui in the offseason, and Mike Gundy he gave

459
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 5: this very very clumsy reason as to why he wasn't

460
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 5: suspended for that opener, which included Gundhy saying, well, hell,

461
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:57,399
Speaker 5: I've driven a thousand times doing this. What But anyway,

462
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 5: that was the first game of the year where Ali

463
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 5: Gordon look like Oli Gordon. The rest of these games,

464
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 5: he's really struggling. Arkansas, Tulsa, Utah. You would get that.

465
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 5: Against Utah they played great rush defense. But Tulsa, what

466
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 5: are we doing? We're running for forty one yards two

467
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 5: point four yards a pie that.

468
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 3: This is mind boggling, Brian, how does that happen?

469
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 5: And it's just it's been a continuous thing. So gotta

470
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 5: get Ali Gordon going. I would say, on the opposite side,

471
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 5: Avery Johnson making things happen with his legs. Oklahoma State

472
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 5: gives up a lot of explosive plays. I would look

473
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 5: for Avery Johnson. To to your point, jaredy hasn't been

474
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 5: great through the air. He's really elusive running football, So

475
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 5: I would look for him to do some damage with

476
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 5: his legs. Someone who does damage with his legs in

477
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 5: a good way every single Saturday, that would be our guy.

478
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 5: Isaac loewen Kron with the latest. I love what's going on, but.

479
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 10: I've got legs and I don't use them.

480
00:23:59,400 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 2: That's right.

481
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 10: I'm exciting to be president at the birth of a

482
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 10: new phobia. Anyway, despite that attribute, there's one thing that

483
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 10: I have never achieved. I have never been tweeted at

484
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 10: by an airport, let alone one of the biggest airports

485
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 10: in the entire world, unlike one member of the Triumvirate. Well, yeah,

486
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 10: go ahead, explain yourself.

487
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 6: Well, there was a fire on the tarmac at JFK

488
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 6: Airport yesterday when I was boarding my flight to Central Michigan.

489
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 6: I am broadcasting live from Mount Pleasant, Michigan.

490
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 3: This wild stomping grounds.

491
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 6: Taken on the AZTECSADL be on the call for that

492
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 6: game kicking off East Coast.

493
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 2: You're very.

494
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 6: Anyway, So I tweeted out a video of the what

495
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 6: I thought.

496
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 2: Was a plane fire.

497
00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 6: Apparently it was a routine fire training drill at airport

498
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 6: and I tweeted it out. And when I tweeted it out,

499
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 6: JFK Airport responded like, nothing to see here, everything's fine,

500
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:10,880
Speaker 6: go back.

501
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 2: To your gate. And I was like, all right, thank you,

502
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 2: JFK Airport, thank you for your service.

503
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 10: They were You're understated. They were a lot more appreciative

504
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 10: of how big time you are by their specific response

505
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 10: saying it was a drill, and they even gave you

506
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 10: a virtual fist bump.

507
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, see if.

508
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 2: They were very kind, Yes, they were very kind.

509
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 10: If that would have been me here, here would have

510
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,719
Speaker 10: here's the response. I mean, I'm just saying that a

511
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 10: big airport like JFK doesn't need to tweet at anybody

512
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 10: unless they're big time. And they tweeted to rich Winburger.

513
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 10: That's what's trending back to you anyway. There was a

514
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 10: blockbuster trade in the NBA on Friday night, multiple outlets

515
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 10: reporting the Minnesota Timberwolves trading Carl Anthony Towns to the

516
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 10: New York Knicks that exchange for Julius Randall and Dante

517
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 10: de Vincenzo. College football Friday night seventh rank. Miami defeated

518
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 10: Virginia Tech thirty eight to thirty four after an apparent

519
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 10: game winning Hail Mary touchdown pass by Virginia Tech was

520
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 10: overturned by review. You want to talk about going from

521
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 10: the thrill of victory to the agony of defeat. Let's

522
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 10: listen to the Virginia Tech radio call on w p

523
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 10: i N.

524
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 2: Final play of the game.

525
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 4: Groans out of the gun, drops the throw, flipping it

526
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 4: into the end zone.

527
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 2: The ball is in the air and the ball is

528
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 2: Who's got it? Is it a touchdown or in good

529
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:42,439
Speaker 2: play pass? No ruling yet, no ruling?

530
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Friday officials. The Miami player comes out of there

531
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 4: with the ball.

532
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, he's he's your touchhead.

533
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 6: Not touchdown, It's a touchdown.

534
00:26:53,080 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 2: Hoky's winning, Honky's winning. All back to the ball. The

535
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 2: game is not over. Here's the call. After further review,

536
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 2: the ruling on the field is reversed. It's an incomplete

537
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 2: why that is how the game is unbelievable.

538
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 10: Miami wins thirty eight thirty four upon further review. In

539
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 10: Major League Baseball, Friday Night, padres one at Arizona five

540
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 10: to three, so San Diego Clinch's home field advantage in

541
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 10: the National League Wild Card Round, the Los Angeles Dodgers

542
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 10: at eleven four win at Colorado Shoho. Tania's fifty fourth

543
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 10: home run and fifty seventh stolen base Felons all yours,

544
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 10: thank you.

545
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 5: I lo it is Fox Sports Radios Countdown to kick Off,

546
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 5: presented by Bett MGM. So this story involving I guess

547
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 5: we would say former UNLV quarterback Matthew sluca is, it's

548
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 5: a doozy ombring here. So he's not going to play

549
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 5: the remainder of this season. So if you play more

550
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 5: than four games like that, that burns a year, right.

551
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 4: So you see this in college football where guys will

552
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 4: play three.

553
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 5: Four games and then they'll they'll not play anymore, and

554
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 5: that preserves a year of eligibility. And so that's what

555
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 5: the former UNLV quarterback is doing. But the reason is

556
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 5: a lot different. He said the school promised him one

557
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 5: hundred thousand dollars if he transferred to UNLV, and he's like,

558
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 5: I haven't seen that money, so guess what.

559
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 3: I'm gone.

560
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 5: And this has been quite the story throughout the entire week,

561
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 5: and you had UNLV they made their statement of hey,

562
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 5: we abide by the NCAA's rules, and this sounds like

563
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 5: pay for play and we're not doing that.

564
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 4: It's just been a whole situation here for what it's worth.

565
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 5: The father of this quarterback, he told Pete Thammil that

566
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 5: the head coach of UNLV, Barry Odom, said in a

567
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 5: phone call that it was an assistant coach who made

568
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 5: this offer. So so it wasn't a valid offer because

569
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 5: it didn't directly come from the head coach.

570
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 4: And here we are. There are a lot of people

571
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 4: are saying this is the.

572
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 5: College version of a holdout, like hey, pay me this

573
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 5: money or I'm not playing, and you could see more

574
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 5: and more of this going forward. Some people look at

575
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 5: this as just flat out quitting and is it worth

576
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 5: it if you were promised one hundred thousand dollars. Some

577
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 5: people say we'll pay up and there's everything's all good.

578
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 5: Others look at that and say, are you really benefiting

579
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 5: by walking away? You're three and oh you beat Houston,

580
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 5: you beat Kansas, those are big twelve teams. You just

581
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 5: walk it away. You're closing up shop here, So quite

582
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 5: the story. I'm curious what you guys think about this.

583
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 5: I'll let you way and start with you rich, What

584
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 5: do you say about this whole thing?

585
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 6: If there's a contract and the contract isn't honored, well,

586
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 6: guess what. In a service industry, the service shouldn't be rendered.

587
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 2: This is what this is.

588
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 6: Now you are paying for play nil is no different

589
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 6: than me hiring a contractor to a renovation on my house.

590
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 2: You know.

591
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 6: Okay, so this guy, he hasn't done major residential projects.

592
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 6: Maybe he was a subcontractor contractor for a while, but

593
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 6: really successful doing bathrooms, kitchen remodels, and all of a sudden,

594
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 6: I'd bid him for a bigger job, and I say, hey,

595
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 6: I want you to renovate my whole home. But then

596
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 6: when he shows up and he begins working where I

597
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 6: don't know whatever you want to call it, a quarter

598
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 6: of the way through the progress, I've only give him

599
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 6: a tiny percentage of what I owe him, and the

600
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 6: agreement says that I owe him far more at this point.

601
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 6: You know, if the numbers are accurate, what's being reported

602
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,959
Speaker 6: is he's been paid three thousand dollars of what's supposed

603
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 6: to be a one hundred thousand dollars deal quarter this

604
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 6: season in You know, if we want to talk about

605
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 6: it like paychecks. He's owed twenty five thousand dollars. So

606
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 6: if I'm a contractor and I've only just gotten my

607
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 6: beek wet with three thousand bucks and I'm twenty five thousand,

608
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 6: I'm laying my hammer down, I'm laying my tool belt down,

609
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 6: and I'm saying, hey, until you pay me what you

610
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 6: told me you were going to pay me.

611
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 2: To this point, the.

612
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 6: Services are no longer going to be provided. So look,

613
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 6: I understand it feels distasteful because this used to be

614
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 6: amateur athletics. You have to let all that go because

615
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 6: this is now professional athletics. If we found out that

616
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 6: a team wasn't paying their starting quarterback in the NFL,

617
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 6: we would be attacking.

618
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 2: The team, not the player. Yeah, I agree.

619
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 7: The only thing that I don't know the answer to

620
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 7: is was there really something in writing, because right now

621
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 7: it's kind of UNLB saying we didn't really offer them

622
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 7: this and s Lucas saying you told me you did.

623
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:51,719
Speaker 2: I thought you did.

624
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 7: That's why I came here the report that I think

625
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 7: at the end of the day, both parties will kind

626
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,239
Speaker 7: of come out looking a little bit dinged up here,

627
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 7: because if you're Sluca's side.

628
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 3: You gotta get it in writing.

629
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 7: If you're you ONLV side, you can't have assistant coaches

630
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 7: going over to holy Cross and saying, hey, dude, come

631
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 7: on over, we're gonna pay you the big bucks out

632
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 7: here in Vegas and then not pay the big bucks.

633
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 7: So which side's telling the truth?

634
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 3: I don't know.

635
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 7: You know how these core proceedings go. It's gonna get

636
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 7: I'm sure there will be some kind of come up

637
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 7: in for one side. The moral of the story here

638
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 7: is you and O.

639
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 3: He's gotta play football game this week, right like the

640
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 3: show business keeps going on.

641
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 2: Show must go on.

642
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 7: And that's the part that intrigues me the most because

643
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 7: I think the backup, Malik Williams, looks just as good

644
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 7: and he almost won the job in camp, and the

645
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 7: number kind of said, well, UNLV is gonna have a

646
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 7: big downgrade.

647
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 3: Now, that's not what I heard from the locker room

648
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 3: this week.

649
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 7: I heard there was an uproar from the locker room

650
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 7: this week and Sluka said, is farewell? So my guess

651
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 7: is he's probably been going around saying, hey man, where's

652
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 7: my money?

653
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 3: And the whole team knows it. And this kind of stuff,

654
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 3: rips apart teams.

655
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 7: This is a different level of college football than we've

656
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 7: ever We are at an advanced plane of consciousness of

657
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 7: college football. If you don't think every single person in

658
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 7: every locker room knows what every nil deal is for

659
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 7: all their buddies, they're all talking about it, right, Rich,

660
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 7: And I know this wasn't part of your era, but

661
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 7: when you guys got like perks or something was going

662
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 7: on like that, stuff swirls around the locker room very quickly.

663
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 7: It's a small thing. Everyone probably knew what was happening.

664
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 7: And I bet there's players on both sides of this, like.

665
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 6: Like for example, Jared to your point, you would hear

666
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 6: about and this was in the age of you're not

667
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 6: supposed to do these exactly things, but you would hear

668
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 6: whispers and rumblings that this Ohio State player, that Michigan

669
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 6: player got some special incentives.

670
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 2: You know, somebody's driving a car. They're not supposed to things.

671
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 6: Like that, right you know, So you're right, we are

672
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:13,280
Speaker 6: at a whole different plane of existence now in college football.

673
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 2: It's all changed.

674
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 6: But you know what the truth is, it's kind of

675
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 6: it's kind of all been this way, right, It's just

676
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 6: it's just more the breadth of the issue.

677
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 2: How far this reaches is much wider.

678
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 3: It's prohibition.

679
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,760
Speaker 7: They were drinking anyways, well they were then everybody was speeding.

680
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 4: Now there's really no speed limit. It's no mine. Right,

681
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 4: that's where we're at in college football. But this is

682
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,760
Speaker 4: the thing is real fast.

683
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 5: This is a horrible look for UNLV in this day

684
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 5: and age, the nil era, And you're the school that

685
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 5: looks like you promised one hundred k and you didn't

686
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 5: pay up, really like you couldn't have a more. We

687
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 5: always talk about negative recruiting, other schools competing with UNLV

688
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 5: for recruits and they.

689
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 4: Don't have to do anything.

690
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 5: Now you can say to a recruit you want to

691
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 5: go there, they promise you the moon and the stars,

692
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 5: and they don't deliver. Come here, we deliver, right, Like

693
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 5: that's Can you imagine some of these transfers where you

694
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 5: had this transfer with Matt Sluca. Imagine if Will Howard

695
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,439
Speaker 5: at Ohio State had the same thing to say this week,

696
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 5: or Riley Leonard at Notre Dame. Can you imagine a

697
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 5: story where Riley Leonard was like, yeah, the assistant promised

698
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 5: me one hundred k.

699
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 4: I haven't gotten any of that or.

700
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,839
Speaker 3: At the end of Notre Dame Football, like, how does

701
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 3: that happen?

702
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,839
Speaker 5: And I understand UNLV is not on the same level,

703
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 5: but it's an FBS program that certainly has one hundred K.

704
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 4: If they promised one hundred.

705
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 2: K, you nailed it. You nailed it.

706
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 6: It's like Walmart or some big corporation. You sell the

707
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,879
Speaker 6: fifty cent pepsi upfront in the front of the store.

708
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 6: You're gonna lose your ass on pepsi because you're not

709
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 6: even making your dollars back for that. But guess what

710
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 6: you'll take the loss leader to get people in the stores. Yes,

711
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 6: you know, so that's what you gotta do here.

712
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 2: Okay, I get it. You don't like it.

713
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 6: Maybe you feel like his dad or the player they're

714
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 6: fudging things a little bit. Well, we didn't quite promise it.

715
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 6: We said we'd try. But he's three and zero. The

716
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,279
Speaker 6: program's rolling right now. You had a great start last

717
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 6: season with the debut season of the head coach.

718
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,880
Speaker 2: Like, let's just pay the one hundred grand and be

719
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 2: done with this.

720
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,320
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, it's better. You're better off that way. In

721
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 5: the long run, you just look like cheap skates. Now yeah,

722
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 5: great job.

723
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 4: UNLV the cheapest university we promise.

724
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 2: And don't deliver.

725
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 4: That's that's not where you want to be in the

726
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 4: nil era.

727
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 5: All right, we've got Rich Orenberger, Penn State, All American,

728
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 5: Jared Smith FSR, betting analyst. I'm Brian now coming up

729
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 5: next the parlay platter. Jared Smith has been hard at work.

730
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 5: We'll see what he unveils. Right around the corner. It

731
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,399
Speaker 5: is Fox Sports Radios Countdown to Kickoff, presented by BETMGM.

732
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,520
Speaker 5: It is Fox Sports Radios Countdown to Kickoff presented by

733
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 5: Bett MGM. Every time you make a wager at bet.

734
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 4: MGM, you earn bet MGM rewards points that can be

735
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 4: redeemed for things like bonus bets or converted to MGM

736
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,160
Speaker 4: rewards points that could be used towards dining shows and

737
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 4: hotel rooms at over twenty MGM resorts. All right, let's

738
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 4: do this.

739
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: Check this out our late letter.

740
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 4: All right, Jared Smith, you have been in the lab

741
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 4: working hard. What do you have for us today?

742
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 7: We got a wopper today. Gentlemen, again, I like taking

743
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 7: shots here with this parlay. Maybe we hit one this year,

744
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 7: maybe we don't, but if we do hit one. It's

745
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 7: gonna make up for all the other losses. And again,

746
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 7: moderation is key. Don't go crazy. This is a half

747
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 7: unit to a unit sprinkle. We're not gonna go nuts.

748
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 7: But we are taking three hunderdogs on the money line

749
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 7: as we do most weeks, and we'll start with BYU

750
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 7: early game at Baylor. BYUS look good four and ZHO

751
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 7: beat s m U Yoming. The Case State win last

752
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 7: week was really good. The Baylor offense really struggling, and

753
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 7: that's where I think I have an edge in this game.

754
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,760
Speaker 7: Baylor's offense outside the top seventy pretty much every metric,

755
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 7: like how the BYU quarterback Jack Jake Retzloff has.

756
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 2: Played so far.

757
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 7: The Baylor d is kind of the story, right David,

758
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:09,399
Speaker 7: and is a great defensive coach.

759
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 3: I don't know how they recover.

760
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 7: From what happened last week, the hil Marian and losing

761
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 7: to Colorado in overtime, Like that's a tough loss to

762
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 7: bounce back from emotionally because they had that game one.

763
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 7: But they did sack shad Or Sanders eight times after

764
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 7: only registering four sacks in the first three games. So

765
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 7: that's kind of the key for me, is can Baylor's defense,

766
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 7: you know, bounce back and keep it what has been

767
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 7: a very efficient BYU offense in check.

768
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,839
Speaker 3: Retzloff again has looked good. That's the key there.

769
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 7: We'll go Northern Illinois, that's Bryan's favorite team over NC State,

770
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,839
Speaker 7: and I use off off that win against Notre Dame

771
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 7: the big letdown.

772
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:49,399
Speaker 3: They lose to Buffalo last week Wolf, but the wolf

773
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 3: Pack haven't looked that good either. They're just two and two.

774
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:52,959
Speaker 3: And how about these results, guys.

775
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 7: Week one, they trailed by four in the fourth quarter

776
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 7: at home in the Western Carolina Double Wolf. They lost

777
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:02,399
Speaker 7: by forty one twenty four to Clemson. They were down

778
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 7: eleven at the half against Loptec, came back to win,

779
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 7: but they didn't cover. I think the offense NZI State

780
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 7: has really been struggling, and that's where I see an

781
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 7: edge for NIU is really good in the trenches, and

782
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 7: I think defensively, NIU can.

783
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 3: Really hold down this NC State offense.

784
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,760
Speaker 7: They're gonna need to because MZ State's offense again, Grayson

785
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 7: McCall's got some health issues. I think this is a

786
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,879
Speaker 7: bounce back spot for head coach Thomas Amick. I think

787
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 7: NIU gets to win and Arizona another game that last

788
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,239
Speaker 7: week at Utah played their butts off. How do they

789
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 7: bounce back against Now They've got to actually face an

790
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,280
Speaker 7: offense with a pulse this week in Arizona because Bowman

791
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 7: had nothing last week for Oklahoma State and Arizona has

792
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 7: had really good success against his Utah defense last year.

793
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 3: They beat him by almost thirty points.

794
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 7: McMillan and Fafita, I think they can complete a lot

795
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 7: of passes. Arizona Northern Illinois BYU underdogs on the money

796
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 7: line twenty seven.

797
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 3: To one over at BETMGM. Wow, wow, let's go take

798
00:39:59,440 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 3: a shout.

799
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 6: Okay, just what those Bears should have won and covered

800
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 6: last week at Colorado.

801
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,359
Speaker 2: That was an epic mountdown. So toil boy.

802
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna say I'm rooting against you, but just

803
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 5: bringing up and I know I'm sorry I had to

804
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 5: do it.

805
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 4: I love it if you see value. I have no

806
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 4: issue with that, no issue at all all.

807
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,720
Speaker 5: Right, coming up next, it's like going from high speed

808
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 5: internet to dial up for this guy.

809
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 7: Ah.

810
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 4: Yes, welcome in here.

811
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 5: Less than two hours away from kickoff here on a

812
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 5: college football Saturday. One of the games we've got circled

813
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 5: you know I do. I've got this highlighted. It's uh,

814
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 5: you know, glowing on my paper over here. It's Louisville

815
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 5: against my Notre Dame fighting Irish.

816
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 2: Huh.

817
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 4: Now, I was thinking about this. No pom pomps here.

818
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 4: I gotta cut straight to the heart here. This is

819
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:55,280
Speaker 4: the truth.

820
00:40:55,680 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 5: I'm thinking about Notre Dame's offensive coordinator, Mike Denbrock. Okay,

821
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 5: he came over from LSU. He was LSU's offensive coordinator

822
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:10,800
Speaker 5: the last two years. Think about what it must feel

823
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:16,840
Speaker 5: like for Mike Denbrook. You go from last year LSU

824
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:23,239
Speaker 5: with Jaden Daniels at quarterback, winning a Heisman Trophy and

825
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 5: wide receivers named Maleik Neighbors and Brian Thomas Junior who

826
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:33,320
Speaker 5: are first round picks in the NFL. You had yards

827
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 5: and points galore last year, and now you're at Notre

828
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 5: Dame who has zero passing attacks so far this season.

829
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 5: That is going from high speed internet to dial up.

830
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 5: If I have ever heard it before, He's gotta like

831
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 5: look at the third quarter and be like, oh.

832
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 4: My gosh, we have how many yards right now?

833
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 5: If I'm Louisville, I am spying Riley Leonard, I am

834
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 5: doing everything I can to restrict his rushing ability, which

835
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 5: has been really good so far this year. I am

836
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 5: making him beat us by throwing the football. And right now,

837
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:14,480
Speaker 5: your money has to be on you can't do it,

838
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 5: and you have to make him prove that he can

839
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,400
Speaker 5: do it. If you lose to Notre Dame with Riley

840
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 5: Leonard running the ball, shame on you. That should not

841
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 5: happen with Louisville.

842
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 6: Louisville beat Notre Dame last season thirty three twenty with

843
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 6: the same plan I think they'll execute this season, which

844
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 6: is forced Notre Dame to pass and tell them, hey,

845
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 6: we don't believe you can, so we'll shut down your

846
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 6: run game and just try to run on us.

847
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,400
Speaker 2: Now, look, Notre Dame coughed the ball up five times.

848
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 6: That was an insanely sloppy game from the Irish the

849
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 6: season ago, and Louisville was rolling. They were on defeated

850
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 6: team at the time, and so things are a little

851
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,840
Speaker 6: bit different this year, a little bit. It's earlier in

852
00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 6: the season. Notre Dame's in a must win situation though, guys,

853
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:05,399
Speaker 6: if we're talking about college football playoff hopes, because whether

854
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 6: you believe it's a week schedule or not. That's the

855
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 6: way it's being perceived. This is going to be your

856
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 6: last ranked opponent for the Irish until your finale against

857
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,399
Speaker 6: us HE assuming they stay ranked, which most likely they will.

858
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:22,800
Speaker 6: So this is an enormously important game for this staff,

859
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 6: for this program. You cannot have another home loss in September.

860
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,320
Speaker 3: It was I remember it was a really bad situational

861
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 3: spot for Notre Dame last year.

862
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 7: They just come off the game against Ohio State, they lost,

863
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 7: and they went to Duke and beat Duke and Riley

864
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 7: Leonard and then it was the Louisville letdown Hartman.

865
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 3: Through three picks. It was a bad upset. It was

866
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:43,800
Speaker 3: a bad situational spot.

867
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 7: To your point, Brian, I don't know if you want

868
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,760
Speaker 7: to hear this or not, but I also saw similar

869
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,479
Speaker 7: things with Notre Dame's offense in my deep dive this week,

870
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 7: and I'll just come out and say it. Even Iowa

871
00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 7: has had more explosive passing plays this year than Notre Dame. Iowa,

872
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 7: oh my gosh, is a more explosive passing offense this year,

873
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 7: according to the metrics than Notre Dame. Riley Leonard has

874
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,320
Speaker 7: completed twenty nine percent of throws ten or more yards

875
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 7: downfield twelve for thirty one on those throws. It just

876
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 7: if you can't push the ball vertically down the field,

877
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,400
Speaker 7: you cannot win in college football unless your army and

878
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 7: you're gonna run it one hundred times. But even they struggle, right,

879
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 7: Like even those teams, you see it when the that

880
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 7: running game is not functioning down to down and you're

881
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:40,879
Speaker 7: set up in third and longs, it just doesn't work. Now,

882
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 7: the strength does seem obvious here. For Jeremiah Love, he

883
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 7: might be the best back in the country. Twenty five

884
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:48,839
Speaker 7: miss tackles on forty five attempts. I mean, that's that's

885
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 7: really good, averaging about five yards after first contact.

886
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:55,359
Speaker 3: He's a bowling ball.

887
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 7: I think the Louisville defense, though, is game here. They

888
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 7: have a really good front seven. They've stuffed twenty eight

889
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 7: percent of runs at or behind the line of scrimmage.

890
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 7: They've created a ton of havoc. Great job preventing the

891
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:10,320
Speaker 7: explosive runs. Ron English the DC. He game planned for

892
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 7: Riley Leonard last year. Right Louisville and Duke played last year.

893
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 7: He understands, and to be fair, Leonard was not one

894
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 7: hundred percent of that game. But they did a good

895
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 7: job against Haynes King last week, only one explosive run,

896
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 7: And I would say he's a better runner than Riley Leonard.

897
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 7: He's got a little more I would say girth to

898
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 7: him than Leonard, who was a little bit more I

899
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,000
Speaker 7: would say elusive. So I'm really curious to see how

900
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 7: that matchup plays out, the Louisville run defense, how English

901
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 7: tries to corral Love and Leonard, And can.

902
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 3: Can Riley Leonard complete a pass more than ten yards down.

903
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 7: The field If the answer to that last question is yes, Brian,

904
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,760
Speaker 7: I think Notre Dame's very game.

905
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 3: To win this matchup.

906
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:53,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do too.

907
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 5: And that's the thing is, it's been ugly thus far.

908
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 5: But I'm still stunned the way Riley Leonard looks. Riley

909
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 5: Leonard was really good at Duke and could throw the

910
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 5: ball for yards and positive gains, right like that has

911
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 5: just not consistently been the case at Notre Dame. And

912
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 5: the ugly interception in the fourth quarter against Northern Illinois,

913
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 5: Like the numbers have been bad, and then it's like

914
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 5: situationally that killed Notre Dame and that get you can't

915
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 5: make a decision like that, and so this is where

916
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 5: Notre Dame's offense is, and Louisville's head coach Jeff Brohm

917
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 5: knows it. This is what he said earlier in the

918
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 5: week about Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard.

919
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 4: He said, we have to limit his yards in the

920
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 4: run game to have a chance to win.

921
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 5: If he's running for fifty to one hundred yards, we're

922
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 5: probably not going to win the game.

923
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 4: Just think about that.

924
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:51,400
Speaker 5: If Riley Leonard rushes for let's call it fifty yards today,

925
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:55,920
Speaker 5: Louisville's probably not winning like that. That just shows you

926
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 5: how like Notre Dame's passing attack has just been so

927
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 5: so dreadful where it's like if we can limit him

928
00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,399
Speaker 5: to like twenty something, yeah, we're probably winning the game.

929
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 5: If he gets fifty and it's not a great shot.

930
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 5: Notre Dame's passing game ranks one hundred and eighth nationally.

931
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 5: That that just has to change because this is like

932
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 5: this would be it put it in basketball terms, this

933
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:23,360
Speaker 5: would be like a current NBA team who cannot shoot

934
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 5: threes to save their life, you know what I mean.

935
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 4: And it's like you're playing this.

936
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 5: Yep, outdated back to the basket points in the paint

937
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,800
Speaker 5: that's good, but you've got to have some outside shooting

938
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 5: in college football. Jared's right, you have to have some

939
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 5: semblance of a passing attack. It opens everything up, and

940
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 5: so far Notre Dame doesn't.

941
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:46,720
Speaker 6: That's exactly right, That's exactly right. I mean, you actually

942
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 6: have to do the opposite of most teams. If you're

943
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 6: the Irish, you need to force a team to respect

944
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,880
Speaker 6: your pass so that you can run the football, because

945
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 6: that's what they want to do. So ken Notre Dame

946
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:02,000
Speaker 6: accomplished that also, they'll look the two questions, the two

947
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,880
Speaker 6: big questions for both teams that I have is can

948
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 6: Louisville continue their big play offense. You know, we saw

949
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 6: the huge gains downfield against Georgia Tech and that win.

950
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 6: That four passes beyond thirty five yards in that game.

951
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 6: I mean, when you're getting chunk plays like that and

952
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 6: shortening the field, you're almost guaranteeing yourself three points on

953
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 6: those drives. So that's that's gonna be a big question

954
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 6: mark heading into this game against a better Notre Dame defense,

955
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 6: a better defense than they faced all season long. Let's

956
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 6: be honest, will they be frustrated and held at bay

957
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 6: or will they still be able to strike downfield and

958
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 6: Notre Dame different question entirely.

959
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:47,440
Speaker 2: Have they turned the corner this season?

960
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 6: Well, it's a terrible loss at home to a team

961
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,400
Speaker 6: that you paid a million or better than a million

962
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 6: dollars to show up and play against.

963
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 2: Okay, but did you.

964
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,839
Speaker 6: Flush that loss with the sixty six to seven win

965
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,720
Speaker 6: over Purdue in a twenty eight three victory over Maryland?

966
00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:05,080
Speaker 6: You know that that's the question. Have have they officially

967
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 6: turned the corner? And are they gonna start doing what

968
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 6: Notre Dame should do based on their talent? But the

969
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,800
Speaker 6: question mark hangs over their quarterback. Can their quarterbacks scare

970
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 6: it defense enough to loosen up the box so that

971
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,279
Speaker 6: you can win with the run game and control the

972
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 6: clock and control the tempo of this game.

973
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 2: We'll see.

974
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 7: I think if we're all talking about this like and

975
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 7: it is, like the low hanging fruit of this matchup

976
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 7: is you know Notre Dame's passing offense and how much

977
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 7: you know explosiveness they can have. You know that that's

978
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 7: going to be a big focus for Notre Dames offense

979
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,200
Speaker 7: this week. I would expect the first if I'm Notre

980
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,839
Speaker 7: Dame's offense and I'm trying to figure out a way

981
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:49,879
Speaker 7: to spark it. First drive, no huddle, tempo, get into

982
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,719
Speaker 7: it quick. I love starting games with tempo. I've seen

983
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,520
Speaker 7: it a few times, you know, with some of the

984
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 7: higher teams, you know that really like to get reveed up.

985
00:49:58,200 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 7: Notre Dame hasn't run a lot of tempo this year.

986
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,919
Speaker 7: They should run tempo today. Let's tug a little about

987
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:03,760
Speaker 7: Louiso's offense.

988
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 3: Because Tyler Shucks, he's been pretty good.

989
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:10,600
Speaker 7: Seventeen picks last year, zero this year so far, eight touchdowns,

990
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 7: almost a seventy percent completion rate. Louisvio's offense has been

991
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:18,240
Speaker 7: very efficient. I really like the receiver group. Jacorey Brooks.

992
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:22,520
Speaker 7: The Bama transfer has been fantastic. Chris Bells flashed twenty

993
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 7: eight yards per catch. They don't have a bell kyw

994
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 7: running back. They struggled to run it last week against

995
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 7: Georgia Tech, who does not have a good defensive front.

996
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:31,759
Speaker 7: In fact, that was one of the biggest surprises against

997
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,960
Speaker 7: their game last week. Very phony cover Last week for

998
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 7: Louisville against Georgia Tech, they had a fumble six like

999
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 7: a blockfield goal or some special teams touchdown. I think

1000
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 7: Their offense on paper is very good, but this is

1001
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 7: a big step up in class. I'm calling the Notre

1002
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,200
Speaker 7: Dame defense this year the no fly zone. They've only

1003
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 7: allowed one hundred and thirty five passing yards per game

1004
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 7: their top five and EPA per dropback. They are an

1005
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:55,560
Speaker 7: elite secondary. Gray and Watts maybe two of the best

1006
00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:56,840
Speaker 7: cover corners in the country.

1007
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:57,399
Speaker 2: As a duo.

1008
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,360
Speaker 7: They've got the Arizona State transfer Jordan clock Clark in

1009
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 7: the secondary as well.

1010
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 3: I think a good year.

1011
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 7: I'm a little worried up front though, Mills and Cross

1012
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:05,320
Speaker 7: and Brian I'm sure he can attest to this.

1013
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:06,399
Speaker 3: You probably expected a lot.

1014
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 7: More from those guys. They've not lived up the expectations

1015
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:11,439
Speaker 7: up front. Limited reps in the spring, they were dealing

1016
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,839
Speaker 7: with injuries. I think that's kind of the matchup within

1017
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,440
Speaker 7: the matchup here. Like we know Riley Leonard has to

1018
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 7: pass the ball. We know that the Notre Dame offense

1019
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 7: I think should be able to run it or at

1020
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 7: least establish some kind of a ground game. Leonard's play

1021
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 7: action off of it will be kind of the you know,

1022
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 7: the check there. But can Louisville's offense match and can

1023
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:34,360
Speaker 7: Tyler schuck go into a tough environment in a situation

1024
00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 7: that you know, you would think Notre Dame is going

1025
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 7: to be flying around defensively and can he kind of

1026
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 7: calm things down? Can Louisville establish a run game and

1027
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 7: can get those two really good receivers going, Like that's

1028
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,919
Speaker 7: kind of the matchup. I'm curious, like how do Graan

1029
00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 7: Watts match up with Bell and Brooks, Like those two

1030
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:50,480
Speaker 7: receivers in those two corners.

1031
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,120
Speaker 3: That's gonna be a really really interesting matchup in this game.

1032
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,879
Speaker 5: Right, That's how I look at this is the two

1033
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 5: questions for both teams is can Notre Dames defense limit

1034
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,439
Speaker 5: then plays for Louisville's offense, because that's really what makes

1035
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 5: Louisville's offense go. They haven't done a great job sustaining

1036
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,479
Speaker 5: drives without the chunk plays, so it's like, can Notre

1037
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 5: Dame make them like Nickel and Dime all the way

1038
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 5: down the field, because most likely they're not going to

1039
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:20,919
Speaker 5: be able to the question for Louisville is if Notre

1040
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 5: Dame's passing a game looks the way it does, which

1041
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 5: is sucky, right, Like, if it looks like that, can

1042
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 5: they prevent Notre Dame from running the football because look

1043
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 5: at a team like Michigan last week, they had zero

1044
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 5: passing game.

1045
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,560
Speaker 4: What did they throw for thirty two yards? Yeah, and

1046
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:38,440
Speaker 4: it has ran the ball like crazy.

1047
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 5: So one, yeah, even if Notre Dame can't throw the

1048
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 5: ball very well, that doesn't mean that Louisville is automatically

1049
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,919
Speaker 5: going to slow down or stop the running game.

1050
00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 9: Right.

1051
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 5: So that's the question for Louisville's defense is can you

1052
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,920
Speaker 5: slow down the run enough where Notre Dame has to

1053
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,759
Speaker 5: beat you throwing the ball exactly right?

1054
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 6: You look, you they're getting paid two is like a

1055
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,840
Speaker 6: common refrain in the NFL. So even though you go

1056
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,879
Speaker 6: out there with a great defensive plan, guess what, they're

1057
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 6: getting paid two. So maybe you send I don't know

1058
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:13,920
Speaker 6: nine guys to the line of scrimmage and say, well,

1059
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 6: they're not gonna run against this, and they find a

1060
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 6: way to run against that because they've got enough blockers

1061
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 6: and horses up front to do it. So you've got

1062
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 6: to stop the run if you commit to stopping the run,

1063
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 6: because things can get really hairy if you don't. How

1064
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,239
Speaker 6: many times do we see teams loading up the box

1065
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:31,880
Speaker 6: and they beat over the top. So This could almost

1066
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:33,839
Speaker 6: be like a role reverse, so we could see Notre

1067
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,200
Speaker 6: Dame with some big plays downfield if Louisville's not careful.

1068
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 6: Here's the one thing I will say about Notre Dame's defense,

1069
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 6: and I hate to do this, Deeve Bryant against this highly.

1070
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,320
Speaker 2: Explosive Louisville offense.

1071
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:48,800
Speaker 6: Look, they're top five in total defense, and I do

1072
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:50,920
Speaker 6: agree with what Jared said. They are like the no

1073
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 6: fly zone. Quarterbacks struggle against them. But they have given

1074
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 6: up a lot of big plays. So they have given

1075
00:53:57,320 --> 00:54:00,400
Speaker 6: up nine plays of thirty five plus yards down field

1076
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 6: part of the field. So we'll see what happens here.

1077
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:14,160
Speaker 6: This is one of those sneaky great early season matchups here.

1078
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 6: It really is a style makes fight conversations. I can't

1079
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:19,640
Speaker 6: wait to see this game.

1080
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:23,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, the secondary is a problem for Louisville.

1081
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 7: Like if I'm Notre Dame, I'm attacking this Like you

1082
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 7: look at what they did last week, and they haven't

1083
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 7: really been pushed that much, but they're dealing with injury

1084
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,400
Speaker 7: issues like they're all American corner Quincy Riley.

1085
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,320
Speaker 3: Was questionable the last two seasons.

1086
00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 7: They've done a good job in the secondary, but the

1087
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,720
Speaker 7: passing down even the early downs. Like, again, if I'm

1088
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,799
Speaker 7: Notre Dame, like the game plans obvious for me here,

1089
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 7: come out early and show Louisville that you are willing

1090
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 7: to push the ball down the field. And I really

1091
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 7: like the Notre Dame offensive line. I thought they did

1092
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 7: a good job stalemating that A and M front a

1093
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 7: few weeks ago, man Or that was the key matchup.

1094
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,120
Speaker 7: There can Notre Dame's young offensive line go on the

1095
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 7: road to an SEC team and shut down a good

1096
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 7: defensive line, and they did. They stalemated that. Ashon Jelot's

1097
00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 7: been really good getting pressure. He hasn't generated a lot

1098
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:16,000
Speaker 7: of sacks this year for Louisville, and he's going up

1099
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 7: against the freshman left tackle Anthony Kapp today. Like if

1100
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,879
Speaker 7: Notre Dame is going to focus on the passing game,

1101
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 7: which I think they will, can Jelot on the rest

1102
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 7: of that Louisville front get pressure against the Notre Dame

1103
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:31,160
Speaker 7: offensive line. That again, good job stalemate against A and M.

1104
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 7: You've got another tough test today against some really good

1105
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 7: pass rushers. So I think this is a really this

1106
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 7: is a really fun game. I really enjoyed diving into

1107
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 7: this one because I think it's strength on strength and

1108
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:46,920
Speaker 7: weakness on weakness. Right the Notre Dame passing offense against

1109
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 7: the Louisville second yap.

1110
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 3: That's where this game is going to be decided.

1111
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 7: Weakness on weakness, Which one of those weaker units has

1112
00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 7: the better day?

1113
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 3: That's gonna be who wins.

1114
00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,919

1145
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 5: Good morning, Seamus. Hope all is well in your world. Okay,

1146
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 5: let's go right down to it. We got Georgia, We

1147
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 5: got Bama, Georgia a very small one point favorite.

1148
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,480
Speaker 4: What do you think of the line movement this week?

1149
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 4: And who does BETMGM need in this one?

1150
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:45,000
Speaker 9: Hey guys, going to be back. Yeah, So this is

1151
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:48,840
Speaker 9: the game of the week. It's been a lot of

1152
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,840
Speaker 9: Bama money on the money line, specifically. I know John

1153
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,680
Speaker 9: Ewing put out some tweet yesterday that said we were

1154
00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 9: taking all these Georgia spread bets, which is true, but

1155
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,680
Speaker 9: money that's coming in on the Bama money line, it's

1156
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 9: almost doubled in any ticket we've written or money we've

1157
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 9: taken on Georgia on the spread throughout the week, So

1158
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 9: all when it comes down to it, we're gonna need

1159
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:13,040
Speaker 9: the Georgia money line win.

1160
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:16,960
Speaker 7: Is there something about this game early in the year

1161
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 7: that makes it harder to book? Usually we get these

1162
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 7: bigger games towards the end of the year, but you

1163
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:25,360
Speaker 7: could arguably say this will be the biggest matchup of

1164
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 7: the entire regular season in the SEC. I know Texas

1165
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,120
Speaker 7: will still have some games, but this is Bama Georgia.

1166
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:33,720
Speaker 7: Is it harder with these matchups early in the year,

1167
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 7: Like it seems like there hasn't been a ton of

1168
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,560
Speaker 7: movement this week, despite the fact that, as you mentioned,

1169
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:39,760
Speaker 7: a lot of people are bet in Bama.

1170
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,439
Speaker 9: Well, this is a benefit of having stuff like games

1171
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,640
Speaker 9: of the year Like this was open for us throughout

1172
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 9: the summer and Georgia was about a four and a

1173
00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:53,360
Speaker 9: half point favorite, so you've seen about a three point move.

1174
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 9: We even went as low as as Bama minus won

1175
00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:01,439
Speaker 9: briefly yesterday. But you know, some sharps put it back

1176
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 9: up to Georgia being the favorite team here. But you

1177
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:07,800
Speaker 9: do kind of you know, you have to get almost

1178
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 9: like a cheat sheet almost throughout the summer by putting

1179
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:12,600
Speaker 9: up these games of the year and seeing because if

1180
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:16,160
Speaker 9: you're wrong in your initial ratings, you'll see. And you know,

1181
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 9: as the years go on, we're having more of these

1182
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 9: big games throughout the you know, early first two or

1183
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:25,200
Speaker 9: three weeks, more and more like you're Michigan Texass for example.

1184
00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:28,000
Speaker 9: So yeah, I don't think it's getting this out of

1185
00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:28,640
Speaker 9: the ordinary.

1186
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:33,440
Speaker 6: We got a big one tonight in Happy Valley, Illinois

1187
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:37,280
Speaker 6: on the road again underdogs in Big ten.

1188
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 2: Play going to Happy Valley at night. What you read

1189
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,040
Speaker 2: on this game? Do you like a side?

1190
00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 6: Is there a total one way or the other that

1191
00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:48,160
Speaker 6: you like? What's the feeling at the book on Penn

1192
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:49,400
Speaker 6: State hosting Illinois.

1193
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,760
Speaker 9: We actually took We've taken a fair bit of Illinois money,

1194
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 9: which kind of surprised me. I feel like I feel

1195
00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,040
Speaker 9: like we're always going to take Penn State money. But

1196
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 9: it's been you know, a fair amount of Illinois backers

1197
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,480
Speaker 9: coming through our doors. We'll see what happens when we

1198
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 9: when we kick off at seven point thirty. But this

1199
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 9: is such a tough game for me. I was pretty

1200
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,680
Speaker 9: I'm lower than I think a lot more people were

1201
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,959
Speaker 9: on Illinois coming into the year, but they proved me wrong.

1202
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 9: They've looked great since the start of the season. Penn State.

1203
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,520
Speaker 9: I also think even with Aler like not looking even

1204
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,840
Speaker 9: that great. Like it feels like they lost that game

1205
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 9: to Bowling Green like a few weeks ago, but they didn't, like,

1206
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 9: they're still undefeated. I really like this Penn State team.

1207
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 9: I think they're going to have to win the Big Ten.

1208
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:36,840
Speaker 9: But uh yeah, this is a tough one for me.

1209
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:38,000
Speaker 5: I don't know if I have a play here, if

1210
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 5: I'm honest, all right, Samus, what's the biggest need for

1211
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 5: BETMGM today? If you could just like waive some magic

1212
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 5: bet MGM Pixie dust on one game in particular that

1213
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:51,840
Speaker 5: would benefit the book the most.

1214
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:52,480
Speaker 4: What would it be?

1215
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:57,560
Speaker 9: It's close, but I you know, I really want to say,

1216
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:02,440
Speaker 9: you know, Louisville maybe outright at Notre Name, but I

1217
01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:05,680
Speaker 9: think by kickoff it's going to be Georgia. Like, I

1218
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:09,280
Speaker 9: really do think if anyone's betting Alabama, everyone's doing it

1219
01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:11,000
Speaker 9: on the money line with us. So I think we

1220
01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:12,959
Speaker 9: can get Georgia to win that game. It'd be it'd

1221
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 9: be a good Saturday.

1222
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 3: Sometimes you have to read between the lines.

1223
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:19,480
Speaker 7: And Seamus said this, and I almost said he I

1224
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 7: think he almost said it in passing. But when Georgia

1225
01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:25,280
Speaker 7: became the underdog this week, that's when the sharp stepped in.

1226
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:27,280
Speaker 3: That's the spot for Georgia.

1227
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 7: If it's a pick them or if they're plus signed

1228
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:31,080
Speaker 7: next to Georgia's name, I think that's the byspot.

1229
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:35,360
Speaker 3: All right, what's the non game of the year game

1230
01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,440
Speaker 3: of the year. The Old Shame is special.

1231
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:38,240
Speaker 2: We need it.

1232
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 9: I feel like this is a look ahead spot for Syracuse.

1233
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:48,280
Speaker 9: Laying thirty and a half at home against holy Cross.

1234
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 2: This is a.

1235
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 9: Final this season. This isn't last year's holy Cross. You

1236
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,920
Speaker 9: don't have Matt Sluca walking through the doors. But I

1237
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 9: think holy Cross I think I don't think Syracuse is

1238
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 9: going to be, you know, putting the pedal of the

1239
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 9: metal here. I think holy crossing will keep this one

1240
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:08,439
Speaker 9: thirty and a half.

1241
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:16,440
Speaker 2: Hey, last one Matt's Lucas. Okay, yeah, hold your questions.

1242
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:22,680
Speaker 2: So UNLV is favored still against Fresno today.

1243
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 6: Just a quick question, like, what does a situation like

1244
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 6: this due to the sports books, when you see a

1245
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:33,600
Speaker 6: quarterback up and leave or threatened to leave a program

1246
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:36,720
Speaker 6: as a result of an NIL holdout, I guess is

1247
01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:39,880
Speaker 6: the way we'd describe it. I mean, obviously it depends

1248
01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:42,640
Speaker 6: on the quarterback the situation. How did this affect the

1249
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 6: line in this game in particular and moving forward for UNLV.

1250
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,960
Speaker 9: Moving forward, we had UNLV, you know, twelve to one

1251
01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 9: to make the playoffs going into this week. Once that

1252
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 9: Sluka news came out, we actually went to twenty to one.

1253
01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 9: That's the impact they had in the playoff odds. I

1254
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:05,200
Speaker 9: mean with the with this game, they weren't minus three

1255
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,080
Speaker 9: and a half. They're not minies two and a half.

1256
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,320
Speaker 9: H fresh of the state's a bit weird themselves this year. Uh,

1257
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:13,800
Speaker 9: you know, they were supposed to be a lot better

1258
01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 9: coming into this year than they had turnover with their

1259
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 9: coach randomly stepping down, But you don't know, he's gonna

1260
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 9: be interesting to watch because I do really like this

1261
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 9: quarterback that he's stepping in forced Luca, who was this

1262
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 9: gun slinger coming into the team, but his passing numbers

1263
01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:31,560
Speaker 9: weren't that great and is doing a lot more with

1264
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 9: his feet. And now you have a guy stepping in

1265
01:03:34,200 --> 01:03:37,680
Speaker 9: who's like a running quarterback now for UNLV. So they're

1266
01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:39,520
Speaker 9: gonna be a fascinating team to watch over the next

1267
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:40,040
Speaker 9: few weeks.

1268
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 2: You know.

1269
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 5: Last one for me, shame it's real fast is when

1270
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:47,440
Speaker 5: you see some of these players that are missing and

1271
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:51,000
Speaker 5: the line movement that follows, Like think of Boston College

1272
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,840
Speaker 5: quarterback Thomas Castellanos. He's gonna miss the game today and

1273
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:57,840
Speaker 5: that that point spread has changed like crazy. If you

1274
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:01,880
Speaker 5: think about the player that would cause the point spread

1275
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:04,680
Speaker 5: in college football right now to move the most, and

1276
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 5: it's not just based on how good they are, it's

1277
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 5: a variety of factors.

1278
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:11,320
Speaker 4: Right who's the backup? Like what how good is the

1279
01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:12,720
Speaker 4: team around him? That sort of thing.

1280
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:14,920
Speaker 5: But with that in mind, who would you say are

1281
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:16,959
Speaker 5: a couple of the players that would cause the point

1282
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,480
Speaker 5: spread to move the most in college ball right now?

1283
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 9: It's really tough because I think there's a lot of

1284
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 9: guys you've never heard of. In group of five schools

1285
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:31,160
Speaker 9: probably have like a lot of big line movements. But

1286
01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:34,120
Speaker 9: I'll say, you know, I think Nico at Tennessee, I

1287
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 9: think it's a big mover right there. Jackson, I'm gonna

1288
01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:41,960
Speaker 9: throw Jackson Dart up there. I think Chador is actually

1289
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 9: definitely up there. Chador has a lot to do with

1290
01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:49,400
Speaker 9: how well they moved the ball. But yeah, like just

1291
01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:54,440
Speaker 9: those three to name a few, it's mainly QB's, Like

1292
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:59,640
Speaker 9: you know, Will Howard for or Will Howard are at Michigan.

1293
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,160
Speaker 9: He's probably the best quarterback in the country if he

1294
01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:04,680
Speaker 9: gets out, Like, I don't think it's even close to

1295
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:07,520
Speaker 9: what we're talking about with you know, a Nico Yama

1296
01:05:07,560 --> 01:05:11,120
Speaker 9: Liava getting out or Dylan Ryola even in Nebraska.

1297
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, great stuff, all right, Seamous well, good stuff, man.

Speaker 2: And leave it at that.

1314
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,360
Speaker 4: As a few parents and boys out there.

1315
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,480
Speaker 10: Probably no fellas. We had a blockbuster trade on Friday

1316
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 10: night of the NBA, multiple outlets reporting the Minnesota Timberwolves

1317
01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:13,000
Speaker 10: trading Carl Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks in

1318
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:18,080
Speaker 10: exchange for Julius Rynol and Dante Devincenzo. College football, Friday night,

1319
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:22,160
Speaker 10: seventh rank Miami defeated Virginia Tech thirty eight to thirty

1320
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 10: four after an apparent game winning Hail Mary touchdown pass

1321
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:29,360
Speaker 10: by Virginia Tech was overturned by review. You want to

1322
01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 10: talk about a roller coaster, listen to how it sounded

1323
01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:35,480
Speaker 10: on the Virginia Tech radio broadcast on WPIN.

1324
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 6: Final player of the game roans out of the gun,

1325
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,160
Speaker 6: drops the throw, lipping it into the end zone.

1326
01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 2: The ball is in the air and the ball is.

1327
01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 10: Con Who's got it is it a touchdown or in

1328
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:49,960
Speaker 10: complete pass?

1329
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:51,120
Speaker 2: No rolling?

1330
01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 4: Yet, no rolling the Friday officials.

1331
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 2: The Miami player comes.

1332
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 7: Out of there with the ball.

1333
01:06:57,440 --> 01:07:01,000
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, is your touchdown not punch down?

1334
01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:10,680
Speaker 2: It's a punchdown. Hokey's winning. Honky's winning. Back to the bench.

1335
01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:12,040
Speaker 6: The game is not over here.

1336
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:16,040
Speaker 2: Here's the call. After further review, the ruling of the

1337
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 2: field is reversed.

1338
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 4: It's an incomplete.

1339
01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 2: Why that is how the game is unbelievable.

1340
01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:30,640
Speaker 10: Miami wins thirty eight thirty four, and late Friday night,

1341
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:33,960
Speaker 10: the ACC issued a statement on the call, reading and

1342
01:07:34,080 --> 01:07:36,960
Speaker 10: I quote the loose ball was touched by a Miami

1343
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,960
Speaker 10: player while he was out of bounds, which makes it

1344
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:44,640
Speaker 10: an incomplete pass and immediately ends the play unquote. Major

1345
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 10: League Baseball Friday night, the San Diego Padres won at

1363
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:42,080
Speaker 5: Big ten action for Illinois at Penn State. I know

1364
01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:43,639
Speaker 5: you guys are fired up for this one.

1365
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:47,000
Speaker 2: You know, no, not even gonna watch? Are you kidding me?

1366
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:49,400
Speaker 2: Come on, You're not gonna watch this with Eric?

1367
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:50,599
Speaker 3: Of course I'm gonna watch.

1368
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1369
01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:55,280
Speaker 4: Here, here, here's a number that blows my mind.

1370
01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 5: Okay, now we know Illinois football hasn't been crushing yet,

1371
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:04,760
Speaker 5: no disrespect here, but Illinois is four and oh for

1372
01:09:04,880 --> 01:09:11,720
Speaker 5: the second time since nineteen fifty one. That is insane

1373
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:12,040
Speaker 5: to be.

1374
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 4: Like, we're just talking about a four and oh.

1375
01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:19,320
Speaker 5: Start think about how many like cupcakes these teams normally

1376
01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 5: face in non conference action. You might play a big

1377
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,160
Speaker 5: boy here or there, but pretty favorable stuff. It's the

1378
01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:30,880
Speaker 5: second time since fifty one that Illinois.

1379
01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 6: Is four and oh that's crazy to me, but here

1380
01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:37,080
Speaker 6: we are, yeah, at first time since twenty eleven, so

1381
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 6: I mean even recently, it's been a good long stretch.

1382
01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:45,439
Speaker 2: Look, here's the deal. It's it's a night game at

1383
01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:46,280
Speaker 2: Beaver Stadium.

1384
01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:49,679
Speaker 6: And coming from a guy who was there when these

1385
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:54,920
Speaker 6: white outs first started at Penn State, there is no

1386
01:09:55,760 --> 01:10:00,760
Speaker 6: spectacle like being in that stadium at night, with those

1387
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:02,759
Speaker 6: fans bearing down on your opponent.

1388
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:04,320
Speaker 2: It changes things.

1389
01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:06,479
Speaker 6: I know we talk about home field advantage and a

1390
01:10:06,560 --> 01:10:09,880
Speaker 6: lot of different venues and in a lot of different ways,

1391
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,880
Speaker 6: but there there is nothing that rivals a Penn State

1392
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,360
Speaker 6: night game. I can't tell you how many times I'm

1393
01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:21,240
Speaker 6: on the sideline, you know, as a member of our offense,

1394
01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 6: right and I'm waiting to go on the field, and

1395
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:26,720
Speaker 6: you're thinking, man, you know this, this team's driving on

1396
01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:28,400
Speaker 6: us right now a little bit. We've been on the

1397
01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:31,080
Speaker 6: sideline getting cold for a while, and all of a sudden,

1398
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 6: you know, the closer the opponent gets the red zone,

1399
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:37,479
Speaker 6: it just seems like the louder and louder that stadium

1400
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:40,960
Speaker 6: gets and especially at the goal line. I mean, it's

1401
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 6: inconceivably loud.

1402
01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:45,160
Speaker 9: And I know that.

1403
01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:50,240
Speaker 2: I know that me saying it is not really impacting

1404
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:51,160
Speaker 2: our listeners.

1405
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,040
Speaker 5: Let me try to say enough. Let me try to

1406
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:56,160
Speaker 5: say it, Rich, what's the exact statement right there?

1407
01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:56,560
Speaker 7: It is?

1408
01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:57,880
Speaker 4: What what was the way you said it?

1409
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:00,599
Speaker 2: Inconceivable loud?

1410
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 5: It is inconceivably loud on the road at Penn State

1411
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,040
Speaker 5: with those fans and that white out?

1412
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:10,000
Speaker 4: Does that help it all?

1413
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:10,280
Speaker 2: Rich?

1414
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:15,000
Speaker 6: It helps, It helps a little bit. It's it's it's

1415
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:20,479
Speaker 6: one of those It's one of those environment if you're

1416
01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:24,920
Speaker 6: gonna commune anything, communicate anything verbally, you're going to screw

1417
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:28,759
Speaker 6: something up because you can't hear yourself speak, let alone

1418
01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:31,839
Speaker 6: hear anybody else speak. It's going to be an enormous

1419
01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:33,800
Speaker 6: factor tonight against Illinois.

1420
01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 7: Nineteen years ago to almost to the day, October eighth,

1421
01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 7: two thousand and five. I was in the building as

1422
01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:45,400
Speaker 7: Rich was for that was the first ever nighttime white out.

1423
01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:48,880
Speaker 7: It was against Ohio State. It was top notch, top

1424
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 7: ten teams. Penn State was just starting to get their legs.

1425
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,680
Speaker 7: We blew the doors off of Minnesota the prior week.

1426
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,680
Speaker 7: Paul pas Lusny. I think Michael Robinson almost put a

1427
01:11:57,680 --> 01:11:59,599
Speaker 7: guy in a hospital in that game on a play

1428
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,960
Speaker 7: where he was the runner and he inflicted.

1429
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:02,200
Speaker 3: So much pain.

1430
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 7: I had never I had never heard noise in a

1431
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:12,519
Speaker 7: football stadium like I did that night. Tombahlly sacked Troy

1432
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:14,560
Speaker 7: Smith on the final play in Penn State won and

1433
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:16,200
Speaker 7: went on go to the Orange Bowl that year. I

1434
01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,599
Speaker 7: know rich again, I'm sure I'm just stirring up all

1435
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:21,120
Speaker 7: these great memories for you. That was the first ever

1436
01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 7: Penn State nighttime white out. They did it the year before.

1437
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:27,120
Speaker 7: It was a terrible that freshman. My freshman year was

1438
01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:30,680
Speaker 7: absolutely atrocious with Zach Mills and et cetera. But that's

1439
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:35,000
Speaker 7: neither here nor there this game, I'll be honest, I'm

1440
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:36,960
Speaker 7: a little concerned with how much love there's been for

1441
01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,439
Speaker 7: Penn State in the market. It's ranked versus ranked, and

1442
01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:42,840
Speaker 7: they're like a three touchdown favorite, Like it's kind of

1443
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:45,200
Speaker 7: the number is kind of screaming at you that Penn

1444
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:46,680
Speaker 7: State's gonna win this game, But how much are they

1445
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:49,880
Speaker 7: gonna win it by? I kind of think that it's

1446
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:51,720
Speaker 7: getting a little sue stretched here. I kind of think

1447
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:54,680
Speaker 7: Illinois might be a better bet Alt Meyers looked good.

1448
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:56,840
Speaker 7: We talked about him last week. I think he's a

1449
01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 7: guy that is kind of figuring out a RPO scheme

1450
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:03,080
Speaker 7: where he can use his legs. And they've got a

1451
01:13:03,120 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 7: couple of dudes on the outside. They got the utsa transfer,

1452
01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:08,760
Speaker 7: they got this kid, Pat Bryant's got six touchdowns. And

1453
01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 7: if you go watch the film Penn State against Bowling Green,

1454
01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:13,720
Speaker 7: who by the way, had thirty two seniors on their

1455
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,479
Speaker 7: too deep, I don't think Illinois even that experience. But

1456
01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:18,960
Speaker 7: the thing that was killing Penn State in that game

1457
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,880
Speaker 7: was the RPOs and the tight end over the middle,

1458
01:13:22,080 --> 01:13:24,920
Speaker 7: just like simple play action stuff, and the guys were

1459
01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:25,759
Speaker 7: just wide open.

1460
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:28,280
Speaker 3: I think Illinois can replicate.

1461
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 2: A lot of that.

1462
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:31,479
Speaker 7: And I don't think Penn State's defense, despite the fact

1463
01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:34,040
Speaker 7: that on paper they look good top twenty most metrics,

1464
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:37,479
Speaker 7: I don't think they're as explosive as they were last year.

1465
01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:41,840
Speaker 7: The Penn State offense has kind of been clunky. Colton

1466
01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:45,160
Speaker 7: Nicky's been good, but Illinois just played Kansas last year

1467
01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,160
Speaker 7: with Colt Nicky as the OC, and they played Kansas

1468
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:50,720
Speaker 7: this year remnants of that offense, so they're familiar with

1469
01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:54,599
Speaker 7: this scheme, and I want to be on Penn State

1470
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:56,680
Speaker 7: here because again the market is screaming at you that

1471
01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 7: they're gonna blow the doors off of this game. But

1472
01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:02,320
Speaker 7: I I would not be surprised if Altmeyer goes in

1473
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,320
Speaker 7: there with little moxie experience and makes a few plays

1474
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:06,320
Speaker 7: and keeps this game close.

1475
01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, Altmeyer ten touchdown passes, no picks so far. And

1476
01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:12,759
Speaker 5: I think the real question is when you were watching

1477
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:17,320
Speaker 5: that game years ago, Jared and Tom Bahlly is hitting

1478
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:19,720
Speaker 5: Troy Smith and Penn State is winning the game, did

1479
01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 5: you think, Hey, that that psychotic offensive lineman or Berger.

1480
01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:26,560
Speaker 5: I'm gonna be hosting Countdown to Kickoff with him in

1481
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:27,519
Speaker 5: about twenty years.

1482
01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:29,720
Speaker 7: You know what the funny thing is, though, it's like

1483
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:32,519
Speaker 7: full cirt, Like we've been doing this show now for

1484
01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:35,640
Speaker 7: over two years, Like this is this is one of

1485
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,760
Speaker 7: those things that you never ever expect. Like Rich and

1486
01:14:38,840 --> 01:14:43,240
Speaker 7: I were literally hand in hand in this experience. He

1487
01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:45,640
Speaker 7: was obviously the opposite end of the spectrum that I

1488
01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:46,320
Speaker 7: was in terms of.

1489
01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 3: The playing experience.

1490
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:49,080
Speaker 7: But for us to be doing the show together now

1491
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:53,559
Speaker 7: with that kind of weird history, it's just it's cool.

1492
01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:56,320
Speaker 3: It really is cool. It's I have to pinch myself something.

1493
01:14:56,880 --> 01:15:02,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got Berger. Go ahead, we don't. Yeah, I

1494
01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:05,200
Speaker 2: was just gonna say, and it's funny full circle.

1495
01:15:05,240 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 6: Also, nothing gets accomplished that I was able to accomplish

1496
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:13,519
Speaker 6: at Penn State without those fans bearing down on opponents

1497
01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 6: at Beaver Stadium again, not officially a white out game

1498
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:21,479
Speaker 6: tonight against Illinois, but James Franklin called for quote unquote

1499
01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:22,679
Speaker 6: whiteout energy.

1500
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:26,360
Speaker 2: So it's whiteout energy one of those hair raising events.

1501
01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:26,800
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1502
01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:30,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, we've got rich Orenberger, Penn State, All American. Jared

1503
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:34,120
Speaker 5: Smith FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian No coming up next,

1504
01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:37,559
Speaker 5: prop it up. We look at the prop bet market,

1505
01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 5: a lot of different possibilities. Maybe a certain Penn State

1506
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:44,000
Speaker 5: player I'm thinking about fading.

1507
01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:45,920
Speaker 4: Here against Illinois.

1508
01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 6: Oo.

1509
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:50,760
Speaker 4: The market is headed that way as well. We'll share

1510
01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:51,080
Speaker 4: that with you.

Speaker 4: Okay, prop bets.

1523
01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:34,439
Speaker 5: You remember like Donald Duck when he was swimming around

1524
01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:35,839
Speaker 5: and all the gold coins.

1525
01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:42,040
Speaker 4: Yes, Scrooge McDuck, My bad, that's right, not Donald McDuck. Yeah,

1526
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:44,959
Speaker 4: but he's like the backstroke and all the gold.

1527
01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:46,479
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1528
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:49,519
Speaker 4: With all the prop bet opportunities here in college ball,

1529
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:50,479
Speaker 4: Jared will start with you.

1530
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:51,120
Speaker 2: What do you like?

1531
01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:54,000
Speaker 7: Let's go shitd Door Sanders over three oh seven and

1532
01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:56,720
Speaker 7: a half passing yards. I think there's a couple of

1533
01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,639
Speaker 7: reasons I love this. First, let's talk about the game script.

1534
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:03,040
Speaker 7: UCF is a big favorite in the game about two touchdowns.

1535
01:17:03,080 --> 01:17:05,800
Speaker 7: It's a terrible situational spot for Colorado coming off that

1536
01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,280
Speaker 7: overtime win. I think UCF's going to be ahead in

1537
01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:11,200
Speaker 7: the game. Negative game script for shud Door Sanders. He

1538
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:13,759
Speaker 7: will have more passing attempts. Now, let's go to the matchup.

1539
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:17,880
Speaker 7: UCF is a very disjointed defense. They're great up front,

1540
01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:21,479
Speaker 7: they're really bad against the pass, and their secondary not

1541
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:25,240
Speaker 7: very talented. Their top two corners Mac McWilliams, a UAB transfer,

1542
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:29,599
Speaker 7: not very high grade, and Brandon Adams got lit up

1543
01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:31,320
Speaker 7: by Sam Houston State two weeks ago.

1544
01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 3: He's allowed fifteen yards for catching two seasons at UCF.

1545
01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:38,439
Speaker 7: I think this Colorado offense, which again very much spread

1546
01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 7: it out, throw the ball down the field. We know

1547
01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:41,760
Speaker 7: about Travis Hunter, but the number two and three guys

1548
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:43,920
Speaker 7: Horn and West, They're probably are number one guys on

1549
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,160
Speaker 7: a lot of teams. So I think the game script,

1550
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:49,080
Speaker 7: the matchup plays out very well for Shudor Sanders today

1551
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:51,360
Speaker 7: over three h seven and a half passing yards.

1552
01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:53,040
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.

1553
01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:56,519
Speaker 6: I'm going to go back to the Notre Dame game

1554
01:17:56,880 --> 01:18:00,240
Speaker 6: and I'm gonna take Riley Leonard over the field fifty

1555
01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:04,160
Speaker 6: seven and a half half rushing yards. Louisville run defense

1556
01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:08,240
Speaker 6: is very good, However, they do struggle against mobile quarterbacks.

1557
01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:10,559
Speaker 2: They've given up one hundred and fifty nine.

1558
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:13,719
Speaker 6: Rush yards to qbs over the past two games they've played.

1559
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:16,800
Speaker 6: Jackson State QB had one hundred one yards on the

1560
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:20,920
Speaker 6: ground against Georgia State or excuse me, Georgia Tech. They

1561
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,800
Speaker 6: gave up fifty eight rush yards to that quarterback, Haines King,

1562
01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:27,760
Speaker 6: and he lost yards on two carries, so it could

1563
01:18:27,760 --> 01:18:28,320
Speaker 6: have been worse.

1564
01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:32,559
Speaker 2: Riley Leonard has forty six carries. He ties the team

1565
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:36,280
Speaker 2: lead with his running back love seven yards per carry.

1566
01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:38,920
Speaker 2: He had sixty four against A and M. He had

1567
01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:42,479
Speaker 2: one hundred yards against Purdue. Give me Riley Leonard over

1568
01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:44,280
Speaker 2: the fifty seven and a half rush yards.

1569
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:47,840
Speaker 5: Okay, I'm gonna go to the same game that Jared

1570
01:18:48,360 --> 01:18:51,160
Speaker 5: pointed out, this Colorado at UCF game.

1571
01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:55,639
Speaker 4: I've got kJ Jefferson circled. I don't think he's gonna

1572
01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:56,760
Speaker 4: throw the ball a ton today.

1573
01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,320
Speaker 5: I think UCF is just going to run it and

1574
01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:03,320
Speaker 5: run it and run wild on Colorado. So I'm gonna

1575
01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:07,080
Speaker 5: take kJ Jefferson under two oh nine and a half

1576
01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:12,280
Speaker 5: his passing yards against Colorado today because I just don't

1577
01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:15,760
Speaker 5: see Colorado's D line and front seven having a whole

1578
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:19,000
Speaker 5: lot of answers against UCF, and then the game script

1579
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:22,519
Speaker 5: thing right, I expect UCF to be leading, probably leading

1580
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 5: comfortably late.

1581
01:19:23,840 --> 01:19:26,160
Speaker 4: You're not gonna be throwing it. So I like kJ

1582
01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:29,519
Speaker 4: Jefferson under two oh nine and a half until really fast.

1583
01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:32,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna like it. Do you like that? Yeah?

1584
01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:34,800
Speaker 7: Well, because I think the running game for UCF is

1585
01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:37,360
Speaker 7: gonna be huge today. And they've got like a three

1586
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:39,719
Speaker 7: headed monster with Jefferson and their other two backs.

1587
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:42,080
Speaker 3: That rights, that's the matchup today.

1588
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:45,280
Speaker 4: I'll save this for the other side. But there is

1589
01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:49,200
Speaker 4: a certain Penn State player I have circled for all

1590
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:51,080
Speaker 4: the wrong reasons, you know.

1591
01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:52,240
Speaker 2: Get to that here.

1592
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:56,040
Speaker 4: But the biggest matchup of the day Georgia and BAM,

1593
01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:58,639
Speaker 4: biggest keys to a win for each Ah.

1594
01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:01,920
Speaker 5: Yes, good morning, happy Saturday to you. We are less

1595
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 5: than an hour away from kickoff. It is a beautiful thing.

1596
01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:11,920
Speaker 5: Four ranked versus ranked matchups, very nice slate of games

1597
01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:15,000
Speaker 5: here today. Highly fired up for it, and we get

1598
01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:18,240
Speaker 5: to the best right here. Let's dive into this left

1599
01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:20,800
Speaker 5: now sc matchup of the day.

1600
01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:22,160
Speaker 2: All right.

1601
01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:28,080
Speaker 5: That is number two Georgia against number four Alabama, and

1602
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:29,439
Speaker 5: there are a lot of things to look at.

1603
01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:33,200
Speaker 4: I'll give you one thing. I think this is Georgia's defense.

1604
01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:37,880
Speaker 5: Can you limit the chunk plays that Alabama one does

1605
01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:41,280
Speaker 5: so well and two really thrives on. You gotta make

1606
01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:44,640
Speaker 5: Jalen Milrow in this Bama offense. Nickel and dime you

1607
01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:48,320
Speaker 5: all the way down the field, which is not easy

1608
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:51,360
Speaker 5: to do against Georgia. But if Bama can hit on

1609
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:54,120
Speaker 5: some chunk plays, that obviously takes a lot of pressure

1610
01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 5: off the offense to execute like.

1611
01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 4: These long eight to twelve play drives to score against Georgia,

1612
01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:02,479
Speaker 4: that is not easy.

1613
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:06,280
Speaker 5: So if Georgia's defense can limit those chunk plays, that's

1614
01:21:06,360 --> 01:21:07,639
Speaker 5: what gets Alabama going.

1615
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:09,519
Speaker 4: This is a completely dated reference.

1616
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:11,479
Speaker 5: I don't know why this popped into my head, but

1617
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:16,600
Speaker 5: if you've seen Survive in advance the ncctate, yeah with

1618
01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:19,599
Speaker 5: Jimmy v and right the nineteen eighty three wolf Pack,

1619
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:24,280
Speaker 5: but they're playing Houston with Hakim Elijahwan and it was

1620
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:27,800
Speaker 5: you know, Fi Slama Jama. What really got them going

1621
01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:32,280
Speaker 5: was dunks, right, They lived on dunks and that really

1622
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:35,120
Speaker 5: generated a lot of energy. Alabama is like that with

1623
01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:38,880
Speaker 5: chunk plays. It's like Fi Slama Jama back in the day.

1624
01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:41,439
Speaker 5: But when they get those chunk plays, it really gets

1625
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:44,000
Speaker 5: the offense going. If they don't get those chunk plays

1626
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,519
Speaker 5: against Georgia, I think it's gonna be tough sledding for Bama.

1627
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:48,400
Speaker 2: I agree with you.

1628
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:53,280
Speaker 6: I think that this game is going to be first

1629
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:55,760
Speaker 6: of all, the backdrop of this game is this is

1630
01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:59,280
Speaker 6: the biggest game of Kalen de Bor's coaching career. I mean,

1631
01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:03,640
Speaker 6: barn this is the first National showcase game for Alabama

1632
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:06,680
Speaker 6: this season, and this is his debut season as the

1633
01:22:06,760 --> 01:22:09,280
Speaker 6: head coach for the Tide. The first time in a

1634
01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:12,639
Speaker 6: very long time we've seen a Georgia Bama matchup minus

1635
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:16,960
Speaker 6: Nick Saban. In fact, the last time that Bama were

1636
01:22:17,080 --> 01:22:21,559
Speaker 6: home dogs during Saban's reign was two thousand and seven.

1637
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:25,000
Speaker 6: I mean, that just gives you an idea of how

1638
01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:29,160
Speaker 6: dominant this team has been over the long course that

1639
01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:31,800
Speaker 6: it's been. But it's a new face at the top

1640
01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:34,080
Speaker 6: and he's got to hit all the right notes. I

1641
01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:38,160
Speaker 6: agree with what you said about Bama's offense against Georgia's defense,

1642
01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:42,880
Speaker 6: But how about Georgia's defense, I mean, unbelievable group. They've

1643
01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:46,640
Speaker 6: only allowed less than one hundred yards per game in

1644
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:50,400
Speaker 6: the passing game. They haven't allowed a passing touchdown yet.

1645
01:22:50,720 --> 01:22:53,439
Speaker 2: So like you said, I mean, it's going to be

1646
01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,240
Speaker 2: one of those games where big chunk plays could rule

1647
01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:57,320
Speaker 2: the day on either side.

1648
01:22:57,560 --> 01:23:01,559
Speaker 6: If somebody gives something up or even in the turnover game,

1649
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:05,880
Speaker 6: that could decide this one. Because Georgia one close on

1650
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,760
Speaker 6: the road against Kentucky eking out a win. This sort

1651
01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:12,160
Speaker 6: of feels like a setup for a similar harsh environment

1652
01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:14,560
Speaker 6: on the road. It's gonna be a battle, There's no

1653
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:15,200
Speaker 6: doubt about it.

1654
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,800
Speaker 7: George's defense hasn't given up a touchdown period passing or rushing.

1655
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:21,760
Speaker 3: Which is again yeah, yeah.

1656
01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:24,280
Speaker 7: The data point against Clemson, I think is looking a

1657
01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:27,080
Speaker 7: little bit better. Club Nick has shown a lot of improvement.

1658
01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:29,160
Speaker 7: I don't think this is as good of a Georgia

1659
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:31,439
Speaker 7: defense as they've been in years past, and which is

1660
01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:33,840
Speaker 7: you know, speaks to just how well they've played or

1661
01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:37,360
Speaker 7: I guess maybe how well they've schemed not allowing a

1662
01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:39,960
Speaker 7: touchdown all season. They have one of the most talented

1663
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 7: freshmen and sophomore classes in the country.

1664
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:43,479
Speaker 3: But they don't have a Jalen Carter. They don't have

1665
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:44,360
Speaker 3: a Nolan Smith.

1666
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:47,400
Speaker 7: You know, like, those aren't guys that I think are

1667
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:49,800
Speaker 7: game wreckers on defense that they've had in the past.

1668
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:51,720
Speaker 7: It's a little bit more of a team effort. I

1669
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:55,679
Speaker 7: agree with your assessment one hundred percent, Brian about explosive plays.

1670
01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 7: That is Jalen he's a game wrecker. That's the term

1671
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,479
Speaker 7: I use. I think I think the Alabama defense against

1672
01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:03,960
Speaker 7: the Georgia offense is the more intriguing matchup here. And

1673
01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:06,960
Speaker 7: I think Georgia's offense, if you want to talk about

1674
01:24:07,000 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 7: a by Low, it was about as bad of a

1675
01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:12,200
Speaker 7: performance that you could have asked for. But if you

1676
01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:14,120
Speaker 7: go back and look through the years of this Kirby

1677
01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:16,599
Speaker 7: Smart recent run, they've had a lot of clunkers. They

1678
01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:19,800
Speaker 7: struggled at Auburn last year, struggled at Masazoo in twenty two,

1679
01:24:20,120 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 7: also struggled at Kentucky one scored sixteen points in that game.

1680
01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,400
Speaker 7: But they usually rebound, and I think it's the strength

1681
01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:29,880
Speaker 7: of scheduled discrepancy, which is why I really favorite Georgia's offense.

1682
01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:30,080
Speaker 3: In this game.

1683
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:35,200
Speaker 7: Bama has not played anyone an offense with a pulse.

1684
01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:38,240
Speaker 7: Obama has not even sniffed it this year. Western Kentucky's

1685
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:40,200
Speaker 7: not the same offense they've been in years past. They're

1686
01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:42,639
Speaker 7: not throwing it around like they used to. They only

1687
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:45,200
Speaker 7: had ten offensive points at home against Toledo through fifty

1688
01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:49,960
Speaker 7: minutes last week. Wolf for Western Kentucky, USF quarterback Byron

1689
01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:51,639
Speaker 7: Brown couldn't ait the broad side of a Barnyard.

1690
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:54,799
Speaker 3: There were dudes running wide open all over the field

1691
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:55,400
Speaker 3: in that game.

1692
01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:58,640
Speaker 7: I honestly think Brian and I could have went out

1693
01:24:58,680 --> 01:24:59,880
Speaker 7: there and completed more passes than.

1694
01:24:59,840 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 3: By Brown did against Bama a couple of weeks. I

1695
01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:06,200
Speaker 3: honestly believe it Wisconsin's offense. What has happened to.

1696
01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:10,080
Speaker 7: The Wisconsin I know and love Phil Longo's getting fired.

1697
01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:12,160
Speaker 7: I am convinced the oc of Wisconsin.

1698
01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:16,320
Speaker 3: So Bama has not played an offense with a pulse

1699
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:19,679
Speaker 3: all season? And what are we going to see.

1700
01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:23,679
Speaker 7: Here against the Georgia front that is angry and really

1701
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:26,000
Speaker 7: peed off after what happened a couple of weeks ago

1702
01:25:26,040 --> 01:25:29,320
Speaker 7: against Kentucky. Kirby Smart is a great coach. He tends

1703
01:25:29,360 --> 01:25:32,040
Speaker 7: to bounce back. If you're looking for a dip in

1704
01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,599
Speaker 7: the market, Where am I getting an edge in this game?

1705
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 7: I think Jalen Milrose priced in properly. I think Georgia's

1706
01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:41,439
Speaker 7: offense might be a little bit undervalued with Carson back

1707
01:25:41,439 --> 01:25:42,559
Speaker 7: against his Bama defense.

1708
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:43,560
Speaker 2: No, I like that.

1709
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:46,280
Speaker 4: I like what you're what you're thinking, they're Jared. I

1710
01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:47,280
Speaker 4: also think this too.

1711
01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:50,640
Speaker 5: I think Georgia is now where Bama used to be,

1712
01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:56,080
Speaker 5: where if you think about that Kentucky narrow win by Georgia.

1713
01:25:56,680 --> 01:26:01,240
Speaker 5: We walk away going what happened to Georgia offense? Man,

1714
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:04,960
Speaker 5: and listen, Kentucky's offense is nothing right home about, but

1715
01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:08,519
Speaker 5: Georgia's defense was spectacular. But you don't walk away saying,

1716
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:10,680
Speaker 5: but hey, how about the defense? You know, nothing wrong

1717
01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:13,479
Speaker 5: with winning? Ugly, We're like, what's going on with Georgia? Right, Like,

1718
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:16,280
Speaker 5: we're freaked out because of how great they have been

1719
01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:19,840
Speaker 5: for years now under Kirby Smart. Meanwhile, you look at

1720
01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:24,240
Speaker 5: Alabama and they struggled, they pulled away late against South Florida,

1721
01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 5: but that was a close, close game at home, and

1722
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:32,120
Speaker 5: there's not the same reaction of like, what's wrong with Bama?

1723
01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:34,800
Speaker 5: We don't look at them the same way. And I

1724
01:26:34,920 --> 01:26:38,120
Speaker 5: say all of that because that can factor into how

1725
01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:41,599
Speaker 5: you're perceiving both teams. You might be a little bit

1726
01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:44,760
Speaker 5: lower than you should be on Georgia just because you're

1727
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:48,760
Speaker 5: expecting so much, and a narrow win against Kentucky on

1728
01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:50,920
Speaker 5: the road, you're just like, what the hell was that?

1729
01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:53,439
Speaker 5: And you can take that a little bit too far

1730
01:26:53,560 --> 01:26:56,400
Speaker 5: when it comes to this matchup tonight, in particular.

1731
01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:00,840
Speaker 6: A matchup that I'm looking at and not gonna face

1732
01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:03,320
Speaker 6: each other. But it's gonna be interesting to see how

1733
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:06,600
Speaker 6: they handle the spotlight. Especially on the side of the

1734
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:10,880
Speaker 6: Alabama Crimson Tide, is they got a youngster at wide

1735
01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 6: receiver who's doing special things. Ryan Williams. He's seventeen years old. Seventeen.

1736
01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:18,320
Speaker 6: I mean, think about what you were doing when you

1737
01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:21,439
Speaker 6: were seventeen. This guy's got ten catches, two orgree eighty

1738
01:27:21,479 --> 01:27:24,720
Speaker 6: five yards and four tuddies. He's led the group in

1739
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:28,120
Speaker 6: receiving in every game so far for the Crimson Tide.

1740
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:31,839
Speaker 6: So huge game, a lot of pressure mounting on Ryan Williams,

1741
01:27:31,880 --> 01:27:35,400
Speaker 6: who's emerged as one of the top SEC receivers. And

1742
01:27:35,560 --> 01:27:39,200
Speaker 6: again he's seventeen. This guy has only been a legal

1743
01:27:39,360 --> 01:27:42,840
Speaker 6: driver for probably months. Okay, And then you look on

1744
01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:46,800
Speaker 6: the other side offensively, Carson Beck, I mean, come on,

1745
01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,519
Speaker 6: this guy is a winner. He's sixteen and one as

1746
01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:52,759
Speaker 6: a starter. He's six and one against top twenty teams.

1747
01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:56,240
Speaker 6: In fact, in those seven games where he's earned that

1748
01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:59,719
Speaker 6: six and one record, he's thrown for almost two thousand yards,

1749
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:01,400
Speaker 6: fifteen touchdowns.

1750
01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:02,200
Speaker 2: And only two interceptions.

1751
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:06,160
Speaker 6: So we know that the Georgia Bulldogs got a veteran

1752
01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:10,599
Speaker 6: offensive player who's gonna lead the group. When you're relying

1753
01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:14,080
Speaker 6: on a seventeen year old kid, is the big moment

1754
01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:16,320
Speaker 6: going to scare him a little bit? We're gonna find

1755
01:28:16,320 --> 01:28:18,840
Speaker 6: out a lot about this Crimson tid offense today.

1756
01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:21,960
Speaker 3: We are on line questions too. I know you love

1757
01:28:22,040 --> 01:28:24,559
Speaker 3: this topic. Richell, let's dive right in. I thought they

1758
01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:26,080
Speaker 3: were better against Wisconsin.

1759
01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:29,839
Speaker 7: They were really bad against USF Procter. The left tackles

1760
01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:32,240
Speaker 7: greated out well, but they've got problems on the interior.

1761
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:35,960
Speaker 7: The guard Booker's been really bad. And the center they

1762
01:28:36,040 --> 01:28:41,040
Speaker 7: can't snap the ball. And Parker Brailsford's the starting center.

1763
01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:44,560
Speaker 7: The Boar brought him over from Washington. He's listed it

1764
01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:47,519
Speaker 7: to ninety. I'm hearing he's playing closer to to eighty

1765
01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:51,400
Speaker 7: two seventy five. As you're starting center in the SEC,

1766
01:28:52,520 --> 01:28:56,880
Speaker 7: going up against George's front, you're already having snap issues

1767
01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:00,919
Speaker 7: like that's a matchup within the matchup, Like can Georgia's

1768
01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:04,759
Speaker 7: front get into that old line which is not living

1769
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:09,360
Speaker 7: up to expectations and turn Jalen Milroe into a very

1770
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:12,000
Speaker 7: one dimensional quarterback If you can figure out a way

1771
01:29:12,040 --> 01:29:14,760
Speaker 7: to take away the running lanes and force hit. Now

1772
01:29:14,840 --> 01:29:18,439
Speaker 7: he has been unbelievable as an explosive thrower. He is

1773
01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:22,679
Speaker 7: I think the best deep ball thrower in the country. Agreed,

1774
01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:26,240
Speaker 7: and can can, But can Bama's old line hold up

1775
01:29:26,280 --> 01:29:27,920
Speaker 7: long enough for him to push the ball down the field?

1776
01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:28,479
Speaker 6: Like like?

1777
01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:31,240
Speaker 7: That's kind of the where I see the Georgia defense

1778
01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:34,240
Speaker 7: having an edge. Here is the offensive line for Bama

1779
01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:37,160
Speaker 7: is not as buttoned up as you want it to be.

1780
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:41,320
Speaker 7: And again, Georgia's defense is not allowed a touchdown all

1781
01:29:41,479 --> 01:29:43,840
Speaker 7: season all season. I know they only played three games

1782
01:29:43,920 --> 01:29:46,719
Speaker 7: all season, and they played some pretty good teams.

1783
01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:48,800
Speaker 3: They played sec ACC teams.

1784
01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:52,640
Speaker 7: I think I want to get to the window on

1785
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:54,680
Speaker 7: George is so bad. I'd love to get a pick them.

1786
01:29:54,840 --> 01:29:57,760
Speaker 7: You might see this later in rapid Fire. I think

1787
01:29:57,840 --> 01:30:00,599
Speaker 7: this is George's game, I do. I think the matchup

1788
01:30:00,760 --> 01:30:04,080
Speaker 7: edges like the small matchup edges. I see Georgia's offense

1789
01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:08,080
Speaker 7: against Bama's defense, Bama offense against Georgia defense. I see

1790
01:30:08,320 --> 01:30:10,920
Speaker 7: just enough on both sides to make Georgia the favorite.

1791
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:13,760
Speaker 7: And that's why anytime this number's gotten down, will pick them.

1792
01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:16,840
Speaker 7: You've seen money on Georgia, right, Yeah, And that's the

1793
01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:17,960
Speaker 7: thing too, Jared.

1794
01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:21,160
Speaker 5: You're talking about the O line and trying to protect

1795
01:30:21,320 --> 01:30:25,000
Speaker 5: long enough to open up those shots downfield and those

1796
01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:28,280
Speaker 5: chunk plays, and a lot of times that can lead

1797
01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:32,920
Speaker 5: to holding number seventy five, right, Holding penalties can be

1798
01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:36,920
Speaker 5: drive killers against the defense like Georgia, And so that's

1799
01:30:36,960 --> 01:30:38,600
Speaker 5: something else to keep an eye on, because you know

1800
01:30:38,680 --> 01:30:40,360
Speaker 5: Alabama wants to hit those chunk blays.

1801
01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:41,680
Speaker 4: That's what really gets them going.

1802
01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:45,040
Speaker 5: I just love some of these stats from the season,

1803
01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:48,280
Speaker 5: and you have to take into account. It's like, yes,

1804
01:30:48,400 --> 01:30:53,080
Speaker 5: styles make fights, but also competition makes fights as well.

1805
01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:55,880
Speaker 5: You have to factor that in where it says I

1806
01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:58,919
Speaker 5: don't know where I got this from, Carson Beck faces

1807
01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:02,720
Speaker 5: a tied defense that has four takeaways and allows just

1808
01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 5: three point four yards per play and three point two

1809
01:31:06,160 --> 01:31:09,960
Speaker 5: four yards per pass attempt, which leads the FBS by

1810
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:11,080
Speaker 5: almost a full yard.

1811
01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:13,439
Speaker 4: That's the fact right there.

1812
01:31:13,680 --> 01:31:16,360
Speaker 5: And as Jared pointed out, it's like, that's great, but

1813
01:31:16,479 --> 01:31:21,120
Speaker 5: that's against Western Kentucky, South Florida, and Wisconsin. So how

1814
01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:25,559
Speaker 5: much does that change for Alabama's defense against a much

1815
01:31:25,720 --> 01:31:28,760
Speaker 5: tougher test with George's offense. And we're not telling you

1816
01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:33,600
Speaker 5: George's offense is insanely outstanding. But it's better than the

1817
01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:37,120
Speaker 5: teams we rattled off in Western Kentucky, South Florida, and Wisconsin.

1818
01:31:37,600 --> 01:31:41,160
Speaker 5: So that's a step up in weight class for Alabama's defense.

1819
01:31:40,840 --> 01:31:41,240
Speaker 3: For sure.

1820
01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:43,880
Speaker 2: I completely agree with you.

1821
01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:46,639
Speaker 6: Look, I mean, since we do a show that focus

1822
01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:49,760
Speaker 6: is on sports betting, the numbers will lie to you

1823
01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:53,160
Speaker 6: early in the season. This is the only iteration of

1824
01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:55,439
Speaker 6: football where this happens. By the way, it doesn't happen

1825
01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,200
Speaker 6: at the high school level, doesn't happen at the pro level.

1826
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,559
Speaker 2: You get to choose your matchups early in the season.

1827
01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:05,240
Speaker 6: Your athletic director, the head coach gets to hand select

1828
01:32:05,320 --> 01:32:08,240
Speaker 6: who you want to quote unquote warm up against or

1829
01:32:08,400 --> 01:32:11,519
Speaker 6: potentially make a splash on the national scene against.

1830
01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:13,479
Speaker 2: Maybe try to sneak up on somebody.

1831
01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:16,920
Speaker 6: But but that's that's the only sport where this happens,

1832
01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:19,360
Speaker 6: where you get to select playing against.

1833
01:32:19,160 --> 01:32:20,200
Speaker 2: Much lower company.

1834
01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:25,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, your stats maybe boost some of the confidences around

1835
01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:28,040
Speaker 6: the roster and get things rolling in the right direction

1836
01:32:28,520 --> 01:32:30,200
Speaker 6: before you head into a matchup like this.

1837
01:32:30,439 --> 01:32:32,759
Speaker 2: But Brian one correct.

1838
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:35,680
Speaker 6: I remember at Penn State it was very different when

1839
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:40,160
Speaker 6: you were facing an Ohio State versus an Akron zips.

1840
01:32:40,240 --> 01:32:44,400
Speaker 2: Or when we were facing it was always acron or

1841
01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:46,440
Speaker 2: it was very different. We were facing.

1842
01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:50,479
Speaker 6: The Michigan Wolverines on the road at the Big House

1843
01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:56,519
Speaker 6: versus hosting the the Central Michigans. Like, yeah, it's it's

1844
01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:59,160
Speaker 6: a it's a very different feel and so you're one

1845
01:32:59,280 --> 01:33:03,120
Speaker 6: hundred percent right. Georgia has had a little bit more

1846
01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:06,240
Speaker 6: of a battle tested start to their season than Alabama,

1847
01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:09,639
Speaker 6: So this first quarter it could get a little dicey

1848
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:12,920
Speaker 6: Forbama because this is the first real test of their year.

1849
01:33:13,360 --> 01:33:16,880
Speaker 7: I mean again, those Bama defensive numbers that Brian gave you,

1850
01:33:17,439 --> 01:33:22,280
Speaker 7: that is exactly why analytics matter, because you can dive

1851
01:33:22,400 --> 01:33:26,040
Speaker 7: deeper and see things like, hey, USF's top three running

1852
01:33:26,080 --> 01:33:29,599
Speaker 7: backs average two point yards two point one yards before

1853
01:33:29,720 --> 01:33:34,920
Speaker 7: first contact. Wow, they are getting push. Wisconsin top four

1854
01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:37,720
Speaker 7: average two and a half yards.

1855
01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:38,920
Speaker 3: Before getting touched.

1856
01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:41,400
Speaker 7: That means again, I know that those numbers can be

1857
01:33:41,520 --> 01:33:43,200
Speaker 7: like lost on some of the audience, and I get

1858
01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:44,639
Speaker 7: that I'm not trying to get two in the weeds.

1859
01:33:44,840 --> 01:33:45,880
Speaker 3: Let me break it down for you.

1860
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:51,320
Speaker 7: That means the Wisconsin offensive line, the USF offensive line

1861
01:33:51,680 --> 01:33:56,640
Speaker 7: was getting two yards of push on average before.

1862
01:33:56,439 --> 01:33:58,320
Speaker 3: A running back was touched.

1863
01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:01,080
Speaker 4: That is a lot.

1864
01:34:01,680 --> 01:34:04,720
Speaker 3: If you are like I do that, it's a lot.

1865
01:34:05,400 --> 01:34:05,880
Speaker 2: It's a lot.

1866
01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:09,160
Speaker 7: I mean, imagine pushing someone two yards off the line

1867
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:11,000
Speaker 7: of scrimmage. Rich, did you do your job if you

1868
01:34:11,080 --> 01:34:13,320
Speaker 7: pushed the defensive line two yards off the line of scrimmage?

1869
01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:21,120
Speaker 2: Market a win? Mark, no question about it. Markt a win.

1870
01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:25,000
Speaker 3: That's a positive, very positive.

1871
01:34:25,720 --> 01:34:27,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, no, absolutely.

1872
01:34:27,560 --> 01:34:29,600
Speaker 5: And that's the thing is when you step up in

1873
01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:33,160
Speaker 5: weight class, if South Florida is blowing you off the

1874
01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:34,559
Speaker 5: line of scrimmage, what do you think.

1875
01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:37,639
Speaker 2: Georgia is gonna do? Man Fraser?

1876
01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:41,519
Speaker 7: I mean very good experienced backs and they're coming off

1877
01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:44,479
Speaker 7: the by. You had Kobe Young, the Miami transfer. Their

1878
01:34:44,520 --> 01:34:46,720
Speaker 7: best receiver was dealing with a hamstring injury camp. He

1879
01:34:46,800 --> 01:34:49,360
Speaker 7: should be healthier. Dominant love at the Missoo Tran like.

1880
01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:52,360
Speaker 7: The more I talk, the more we talk this game out, guys,

1881
01:34:52,400 --> 01:34:53,200
Speaker 7: the more I like Georgia.

1882
01:34:53,280 --> 01:34:56,640
Speaker 2: I see it too.

1883
01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:00,679
Speaker 4: We've got Jared Smith FSR betting analyst. He's on Georgia,

1884
01:35:00,840 --> 01:35:04,080
Speaker 4: but you know, something holding me. He wants it to

1885
01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:05,800
Speaker 4: be a pick coum, you know, and then it's an

1886
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:06,519
Speaker 4: automatic fire.

1887

Speaker 4: If that bet loses.

1908
01:36:13,240 --> 01:36:15,439
Speaker 5: Okay, So we've got a couple of teams that won

1909
01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:18,200
Speaker 5: last week and they're trying to run it back. We

1910
01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:22,479
Speaker 5: always see in college football let down city. Huh, let

1911
01:36:22,760 --> 01:36:26,439
Speaker 5: down city. So we got Michigan nice win last week

1912
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:32,559
Speaker 5: against USC. Michigan is hosting Minnesota today. Then also Utah

1913
01:36:32,800 --> 01:36:35,519
Speaker 5: Nice went on the road against Oklahoma State, No cam Rising.

1914
01:36:36,120 --> 01:36:40,920
Speaker 5: They're at home and they're facing Arizona. Both Michigan and

1915
01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:46,320
Speaker 5: Utah home favorites by about ten. Michigan's actually minus ten

1916
01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:49,680
Speaker 5: and the hook Utah minus nine and a half. But

1917
01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:53,080
Speaker 5: what do you think about these games and the letdowns

1918
01:36:53,120 --> 01:36:55,880
Speaker 5: that we typically see in college football. I've got my

1919
01:36:56,000 --> 01:36:59,519
Speaker 5: eye on that Golden Gophers defense because not much of

1920
01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:03,479
Speaker 5: a past attack last week from Michigan ninety two yards

1921
01:37:03,520 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 5: through the air against USC. You know, if you're Minnesota,

1922
01:37:07,160 --> 01:37:09,200
Speaker 5: Michigan's gonna try to run the ball, run the ball,

1923
01:37:09,280 --> 01:37:12,880
Speaker 5: run the ball again. Minnesota is equipped to slow down

1924
01:37:12,960 --> 01:37:16,679
Speaker 5: the running attack. So uh, plus ten and a half.

1925
01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:19,240
Speaker 5: I don't know, if you're feeling a little saucy, maybe

1926
01:37:19,280 --> 01:37:21,720
Speaker 5: the Golden Gophers keep it close in this one.

1927
01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:27,000
Speaker 6: Alex Orgy is not going to be the key player

1928
01:37:27,120 --> 01:37:29,760
Speaker 6: to watch offensively for the Wolverines.

1929
01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:32,920
Speaker 2: I think that may be an understatement.

1930
01:37:33,000 --> 01:37:37,280
Speaker 6: I think, you know, as as little as as JJ

1931
01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:41,280
Speaker 6: McCarthy had to do throughout the season last year, I

1932
01:37:41,400 --> 01:37:44,519
Speaker 6: believe they're gonna ask Orgy to do a lot lot

1933
01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:47,479
Speaker 6: less this year because they have two studs in the backfield.

1934
01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:51,160
Speaker 6: Mullings and Edwards are really incredible players. Mullings may replace

1935
01:37:51,280 --> 01:37:53,519
Speaker 6: Edwards as the starter. I mean, he's off to the

1936
01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:57,559
Speaker 6: hottest start of arguably any running back in FBS play

1937
01:37:57,680 --> 01:37:59,880
Speaker 6: right now, with fourge of twenty nine yards on the ground,

1938
01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:03,120
Speaker 6: averaging over eight yards per carry, and so really the

1939
01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:05,679
Speaker 6: key matchup. And I wrote this down it's one question,

1940
01:38:06,200 --> 01:38:09,439
Speaker 6: Ken Minnesota shut down the run. If the answer is no,

1941
01:38:10,240 --> 01:38:15,720
Speaker 6: Michigan will be preserving that big ten win streak, which

1942
01:38:15,880 --> 01:38:21,120
Speaker 6: is up to twenty six wins wow consecutively in conference play.

1943
01:38:21,680 --> 01:38:25,479
Speaker 6: So they may they're looking for their twenty seventh. But yeah,

1944
01:38:25,520 --> 01:38:27,800
Speaker 6: that's the one question. Ken Minnesota, can the go first

1945
01:38:27,840 --> 01:38:29,719
Speaker 6: stop that Michigan run attack.

1946
01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:33,760
Speaker 3: If you like offense, I don't think this is the

1947
01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:35,360
Speaker 3: game for you. I just don't.

1948
01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:37,080
Speaker 4: I just don't.

1949
01:38:37,600 --> 01:38:41,280
Speaker 7: The toil is thirty four and a half and can

1950
01:38:41,360 --> 01:38:45,040
Speaker 7: you guys, guess guess what Alex Orgi's.

1951
01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:47,240
Speaker 3: Passing yards prop is over at bet MGM. Guess with

1952
01:38:47,320 --> 01:38:47,799
Speaker 3: the numbers.

1953
01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:49,760
Speaker 4: Oh my god, it's gotta come down, because it was

1954
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:50,880
Speaker 4: one twenty nine and a half.

1955
01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:53,080
Speaker 3: It was like one thirty last weekend. It didn't even

1956
01:38:53,160 --> 01:38:58,320
Speaker 3: go close Downeahre, it's like one oh five. You are

1957
01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:01,920
Speaker 3: being way too generous. Only seventy nine and a half.

1958
01:39:04,439 --> 01:39:08,439
Speaker 2: Kids, I don't even know what to say.

1959
01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:15,120
Speaker 7: I think Minnesota's defense obviously stopping the run as the key.

1960
01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:19,000
Speaker 7: They couldn't stop Caleb Johnson last week two six three

1961
01:39:19,080 --> 01:39:23,320
Speaker 7: touchdowns and that was with Gade McNamara, who I would

1962
01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:25,360
Speaker 7: say is an upgrade over alse Archie.

1963
01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:26,880
Speaker 3: But that's not saying much.

1964
01:39:27,760 --> 01:39:28,519
Speaker 2: It's not hard.

1965
01:39:30,920 --> 01:39:34,040
Speaker 7: I feel like this game probably skewed Like I wanted

1966
01:39:34,040 --> 01:39:37,479
Speaker 7: to get in on Michigan under under ten and the

1967
01:39:37,600 --> 01:39:40,040
Speaker 7: number kind of steamed out this week. You you kind

1968
01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:44,400
Speaker 7: of can see the path for Michigan because what Orgy

1969
01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:47,400
Speaker 7: I think at least gives you is the ability to

1970
01:39:47,520 --> 01:39:53,000
Speaker 7: stretch the running game where Mcnamerica couldn't and Iowa is

1971
01:39:53,680 --> 01:39:55,519
Speaker 7: I would say Iowa was kind of a similar team

1972
01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:57,920
Speaker 7: to Michigan, like I think those teams this year are

1973
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:00,439
Speaker 7: you know, maybe McNamara is a a little.

1974
01:40:00,240 --> 01:40:02,440
Speaker 3: Bit of a better thrower and Orgy's a better runner.

1975
01:40:02,200 --> 01:40:04,960
Speaker 7: But I think the scheme of these teams is the same.

1976
01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:07,000
Speaker 7: They want to run the ball, smash mouth, play defense.

1977
01:40:07,240 --> 01:40:10,320
Speaker 7: Minnesota couldn't handle it at home last week against Iowa.

1978
01:40:10,560 --> 01:40:12,559
Speaker 7: I don't know if they can handle it this week

1979
01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:13,400
Speaker 7: against Michigan.

1980
01:40:13,520 --> 01:40:16,120
Speaker 3: And the total. When a total is that low with

1981
01:40:16,280 --> 01:40:17,360
Speaker 3: a spread of ten.

1982
01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:20,200
Speaker 7: It just it makes you feel like points are going

1983
01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:22,160
Speaker 7: to be very hard to come by for Minnesota in

1984
01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:24,959
Speaker 7: this game. And their quarterback hasn't performed well. Max brosmer

1985
01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:27,880
Speaker 7: qbr under fifty like is outside the top eighty in

1986
01:40:27,920 --> 01:40:31,360
Speaker 7: all categories, and Minnesota doesn't run it that well. So

1987
01:40:32,479 --> 01:40:36,960
Speaker 7: I could see it unless Minnesota makes some plays special teams, defense,

1988
01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:38,240
Speaker 7: kick return something.

1989
01:40:39,000 --> 01:40:39,960
Speaker 3: I don't know how they're.

1990
01:40:39,760 --> 01:40:44,120
Speaker 5: Scoring in this game, man, But Alex Sorgi, the passing

1991
01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:47,679
Speaker 5: prop seventy nine and a half.

1992
01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:54,280
Speaker 3: Still might be too high for thirty two yards last

1993
01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:55,320
Speaker 3: week and they won the game.

1994
01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:56,280
Speaker 2: I hear you.

1995
01:40:56,520 --> 01:40:58,560
Speaker 4: But that's good point Minnesota.

1996
01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:03,600
Speaker 5: They saw what happened last week, right, They know that

1997
01:41:03,880 --> 01:41:07,000
Speaker 5: all Michigan did was run the football and they know

1998
01:41:07,320 --> 01:41:08,760
Speaker 5: that Michigan is going to.

1999
01:41:08,920 --> 01:41:11,840
Speaker 4: Want to run the football again. Michigan rushed for almost

2000
01:41:11,920 --> 01:41:14,800
Speaker 4: three hundred yards with no passing game.

2001
01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:18,439
Speaker 5: Wow, I just don't see them rushing for near three

2002
01:41:18,560 --> 01:41:23,479
Speaker 5: hundred yards again against Minnesota, and so you're gonna have.

2003
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:24,559
Speaker 4: To throw it a little bit.

2004
01:41:24,680 --> 01:41:28,960
Speaker 5: I mean goodness, just a couple of completions, we're knocking

2005
01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:32,680
Speaker 5: on the door of the over, Like two completions.

2006
01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:36,320
Speaker 4: You know, I can't take the under there you Jared

2007
01:41:36,439 --> 01:41:38,439
Speaker 4: rich screen pass.

2008
01:41:39,040 --> 01:41:43,680
Speaker 6: Touchdown right, but that right there, like this is one

2009
01:41:43,720 --> 01:41:46,320
Speaker 6: of those where you take the under and you're just like, man,

2010
01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:48,560
Speaker 6: I guess I'll hold my nose. And then all of

2011
01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:50,880
Speaker 6: a sudden, it's one swing pass to one of these

2012
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:53,920
Speaker 6: running backs who takes it seventy yards and you're like,

2013
01:41:54,040 --> 01:41:54,960
Speaker 6: are you kidding me?

2014
01:41:55,439 --> 01:41:58,600
Speaker 3: Like a just but from last week and again, the

2015
01:41:58,680 --> 01:41:59,320
Speaker 3: yards is one thing.

2016
01:41:59,320 --> 01:42:01,840
Speaker 7: When you're going from three fifty to three hundred, when

2017
01:42:01,840 --> 01:42:04,960
Speaker 7: you're going from one thirty to eighty, like.

2018
01:42:05,360 --> 01:42:09,599
Speaker 2: That is this like a like a like an Iowa

2019
01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:13,519
Speaker 2: quarterback line, right, you know? I remember there were some

2020
01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:16,280
Speaker 2: of those games where it's just like how far can

2021
01:42:16,439 --> 01:42:19,760
Speaker 2: the total go down? And it just continued to creep down.

2022
01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:23,280
Speaker 7: I've seen game totals higher than seventy nine and a half,

2023
01:42:23,760 --> 01:42:28,560
Speaker 7: not yard totals, ractual point totals higher at seventy.

2024
01:42:28,280 --> 01:42:29,519
Speaker 3: Nine and a half in college football.

2025
01:42:29,720 --> 01:42:31,680
Speaker 4: That is insane right there.

2026
01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:35,040
Speaker 5: All right, I'll give you a couple other prop betting

2027
01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:36,960
Speaker 5: options here in a second.

2028
01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:39,400
Speaker 4: I've been teasing this Penn State thing. I'm curious what

2029
01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:40,479
Speaker 4: you guys think about it.

2030
01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:45,640
Speaker 5: First, though, Isaac Lowen Crawn always take the over on

2031
01:42:45,840 --> 01:42:47,960
Speaker 5: his rushing or passing prop.

2032
01:42:48,240 --> 01:42:51,160
Speaker 10: I low with the latest here, and that's quite appropriate

2033
01:42:51,200 --> 01:42:53,679
Speaker 10: because we have some fresh NFL news for you guys

Speaker 10: by review, the ACC saying later in a statement, quote,

2054
01:43:58,960 --> 01:44:01,519
Speaker 10: the loose ball was tough by a Miami player while

2055
01:44:01,520 --> 01:44:04,160
Speaker 10: he was out of bounds, which makes it an incomplete

2056
01:44:04,200 --> 01:44:08,599
Speaker 10: pass and immediately ends the play unquote. In Major League Baseball,

01:44:48,280 --> 01:44:48,880
Speaker 4: Super fast.

2073
01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:53,479
Speaker 5: On that Virginia Tech Miami game, listen. I still don't

2074
01:44:53,560 --> 01:44:57,439
Speaker 5: know if that explanation is correct. So okay, Virginia Tech,

2075
01:44:58,080 --> 01:45:03,280
Speaker 5: they catch a hail Mary as time expires, it's nearly

2076
01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:07,360
Speaker 5: out of bounds. The Virginia Tech player is inbounds. They

2077
01:45:07,439 --> 01:45:10,920
Speaker 5: initially called it a touchdown. They reviewed it, they reversed

2078
01:45:11,000 --> 01:45:14,600
Speaker 5: it and said that it was an incomplete pass. No

2079
01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:19,120
Speaker 5: explanation the acc as ilo just said today. They came

2080
01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:22,679
Speaker 5: out and clarified and said the Miami defender was out

2081
01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:25,240
Speaker 5: of bounds, he was touching the football. That makes it,

2082
01:45:25,880 --> 01:45:28,240
Speaker 5: you know, an incomplete pass automatically.

2083
01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:32,840
Speaker 4: Two things. One, I'm not sure they got that right.

2084
01:45:33,080 --> 01:45:37,000
Speaker 5: The explanation if the Miami defender is touching the ball

2085
01:45:37,320 --> 01:45:40,520
Speaker 5: while out of bounds. I'm not sure that's even conclusive.

2086
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:44,160
Speaker 5: But the other part of it that has to be explained.

2087
01:45:44,280 --> 01:45:47,519
Speaker 5: Last night, you had a bare minimum have to say, Hey,

2088
01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:49,960
Speaker 5: the reason why the Miami defender was out of bounds,

2089
01:45:50,000 --> 01:45:52,960
Speaker 5: that's why it's an incomplete pass. And people aren't losing

2090
01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:57,920
Speaker 5: their mind. The officials just like the calls reversed incomplete bye,

2091
01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:00,920
Speaker 5: you know, and that's it. There's no explanation. You got

2092
01:46:01,040 --> 01:46:02,479
Speaker 5: to explain something like that.

2093
01:46:02,880 --> 01:46:05,200
Speaker 4: And they didn't do that. And I don't even know

2094
01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:07,240
Speaker 4: if I agree with that part, but you got to

2095
01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:07,760
Speaker 4: explain it.

2096
01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:12,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, And that's the thing, like at least offer the explanation.

2097
01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:15,679
Speaker 6: You know what, this feels a lot like this feels

2098
01:46:15,720 --> 01:46:18,559
Speaker 6: a lot like somebody getting caught during a traffic stop

2099
01:46:19,200 --> 01:46:24,320
Speaker 6: and saying one thing, or maybe maybe saying nothing, and

2100
01:46:24,400 --> 01:46:26,800
Speaker 6: then all of a sudden, the excuses start rolling out

2101
01:46:26,840 --> 01:46:29,160
Speaker 6: from the attorney now that they've had twenty four hours

2102
01:46:29,200 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 6: to look at all the evidence.

2103
01:46:30,640 --> 01:46:30,760
Speaker 9: Right.

2104
01:46:30,920 --> 01:46:36,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, to me, it's like it's like, we can't relitigate

2105
01:46:36,560 --> 01:46:39,200
Speaker 6: something that happened in front of all of us.

2106
01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:43,800
Speaker 2: And and you go back and I mean you go

2107
01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:45,160
Speaker 2: back on the initial call.

2108
01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:47,920
Speaker 6: Well, it better be a great reason, because we've been

2109
01:46:48,000 --> 01:46:50,720
Speaker 6: told as a football viewing public it has to be

2110
01:46:51,360 --> 01:46:58,800
Speaker 6: indisputable evidence that completely exonerates the initial call, and there wasn't.

2111
01:46:58,880 --> 01:47:02,200
Speaker 6: There wasn't in disputable evidence in my eyes and many

2112
01:47:02,280 --> 01:47:02,840
Speaker 6: fans eyes.

2113
01:47:03,400 --> 01:47:06,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how you either a call it

2114
01:47:07,080 --> 01:47:08,280
Speaker 3: like that on them. I couldn't see.

2115
01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:11,479
Speaker 7: I watched that replay fifty times last night. I still

2116
01:47:11,560 --> 01:47:12,439
Speaker 7: have no idea if it.

2117
01:47:12,479 --> 01:47:14,479
Speaker 3: Was a catcher. No, I honestly don't. Yeah, and I

2118
01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:15,320
Speaker 3: don't think we ever will.

2119
01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:18,200
Speaker 5: And that's the thing is I put something out on

2120
01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:22,880
Speaker 5: Twitter where Miami was gifted of victory that it was,

2121
01:47:23,560 --> 01:47:26,280
Speaker 5: but and I got some pushback. Some people were like, Brian,

2122
01:47:26,360 --> 01:47:29,680
Speaker 5: the ball was clearly it wasn't caught cleanly. He was

2123
01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:34,400
Speaker 5: juggling it. Listen, you can't tell when he catches it initially.

2124
01:47:34,640 --> 01:47:36,479
Speaker 5: And let's say he's juggling it on the way to

2125
01:47:36,560 --> 01:47:39,680
Speaker 5: the ground. He has firm control of the ball on

2126
01:47:39,880 --> 01:47:42,320
Speaker 5: the ground. I don't care if he's bobbling it on

2127
01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:44,720
Speaker 5: the way. He had control. And then you see the

2128
01:47:44,800 --> 01:47:48,960
Speaker 5: Miami player punch the ball out. So the Miami player

2129
01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:51,320
Speaker 5: is not touching the football the whole time on the

2130
01:47:51,400 --> 01:47:54,080
Speaker 5: way to the ground, where being out of bounds would

2131
01:47:54,160 --> 01:47:57,559
Speaker 5: make it an incomplete pass. He punches it out, meaning

2132
01:47:57,640 --> 01:48:01,240
Speaker 5: he wasn't touching the ball when he was out of

2133
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:02,400
Speaker 5: bounds initially.

2134
01:48:02,520 --> 01:48:04,680
Speaker 2: So I still think they screwed it up.

2135
01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:07,360
Speaker 5: I still think Virginia Tech won. But whatever, it's in

2136
01:48:07,439 --> 01:48:09,920
Speaker 5: the history books. Now, let's move on to this prop

2137
01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:13,559
Speaker 5: bets your Penn State. Nickney lyons here, Yeah, we got

2138
01:48:14,120 --> 01:48:19,360
Speaker 5: what we got, Okay, Yeah, I'm looking at Nicholas Singleton, right,

2139
01:48:19,520 --> 01:48:21,320
Speaker 5: And he's been a stud this year, there's no doubt

2140
01:48:21,360 --> 01:48:24,920
Speaker 5: about it. But his rushing prop bet is at eighty

2141
01:48:24,960 --> 01:48:28,960
Speaker 5: two and a half. It has been screaming downward, just room.

2142
01:48:29,760 --> 01:48:29,920
Speaker 9: You know.

2143
01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:32,040
Speaker 5: It was at eighty six and a half. So it's

2144
01:48:32,080 --> 01:48:35,519
Speaker 5: come down a minimum of four yards throughout the week.

2145
01:48:36,280 --> 01:48:38,920
Speaker 5: And I just think about this. He's averaging eight point

2146
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:42,160
Speaker 5: five yards per rush this season. Again, he's been spectacular,

2147
01:48:42,280 --> 01:48:46,880
Speaker 5: but he splits time with k Tron Allen. Right, They've

2148
01:48:46,960 --> 01:48:50,720
Speaker 5: almost had the exact same number of carries in Illinois's

2149
01:48:50,800 --> 01:48:54,680
Speaker 5: defense is pretty good, pretty good. I don't think that

2150
01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:56,880
Speaker 5: eighty two and a half is a good amount of

2151
01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:59,400
Speaker 5: rushing yards. He's not running for eight and a half

2152
01:48:59,560 --> 01:49:04,240
Speaker 5: yards her clip against Illinois, So I like the under

2153
01:49:04,280 --> 01:49:05,880
Speaker 5: in this one. I'm not gonna tell you he's gonna

2154
01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:08,920
Speaker 5: have sixteen yards rushing today, but I don't think he

2155
01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:09,800
Speaker 5: gets to eighty three.

2156
01:49:09,920 --> 01:49:13,599
Speaker 4: What do you guys think about that? Yeah?

2157
01:49:14,040 --> 01:49:16,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's gonna be tough sledding. It's gonna

2158
01:49:16,680 --> 01:49:17,360
Speaker 2: be tough sledding.

2159
01:49:18,160 --> 01:49:22,559
Speaker 6: Here's the thing, though, if you believe that Penn State

2160
01:49:22,960 --> 01:49:25,320
Speaker 6: is going to have a lead that they're looking to

2161
01:49:25,439 --> 01:49:30,360
Speaker 6: sustain early, well, then they're gonna whether you love the

2162
01:49:30,840 --> 01:49:33,560
Speaker 6: the prop on Singleton, they're gonna be giving him a

2163
01:49:33,680 --> 01:49:36,920
Speaker 6: lot of run because just milk the clock if you

2164
01:49:36,960 --> 01:49:40,439
Speaker 6: get an early lead. That's not typically Franklin's way. He

2165
01:49:40,680 --> 01:49:43,760
Speaker 6: likes to abuse the scoreboard and he really likes the

2166
01:49:43,800 --> 01:49:47,920
Speaker 6: idea winning the style points game two. I mean we've

2167
01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:50,840
Speaker 6: seen that many many times, Jared, where they're throwing the

2168
01:49:50,920 --> 01:49:52,799
Speaker 6: football deep into the fourth quarter.

2169
01:49:52,600 --> 01:49:55,800
Speaker 2: Of those starters play a lot. So there's that.

2170
01:49:56,120 --> 01:49:59,519
Speaker 6: But still Singleton, even if they're winning big, I could

2171
01:49:59,520 --> 01:50:01,960
Speaker 6: see him, you know, continue getting handoffs.

2172
01:50:02,040 --> 01:50:05,200
Speaker 2: So it's tricky. He's he's a tricky under.

2173
01:50:06,520 --> 01:50:08,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'll be honest, I saw, Yeah, here you go.

2174
01:50:08,840 --> 01:50:11,040
Speaker 7: Since two thousand, Penn State seventeen to oho to one

2175
01:50:11,120 --> 01:50:14,360
Speaker 7: in games where they're favorite between seven and twenty four, like,

2176
01:50:14,720 --> 01:50:17,639
Speaker 7: and that's like a weird number. Credit Are Powell Chris Folika,

2177
01:50:17,680 --> 01:50:21,559
Speaker 7: the Bear Fox Sports colleague, for tweeting that out yesterday

2178
01:50:21,640 --> 01:50:26,400
Speaker 7: during his Bear bites. But that speaks to what they

2179
01:50:26,600 --> 01:50:30,280
Speaker 7: do in these games. They like to cover numbers. I

2180
01:50:30,360 --> 01:50:34,839
Speaker 7: know that sounds kind of kind of weird and like wonky,

2181
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:36,720
Speaker 7: but if you think about it, it makes a ton

2182
01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:39,759
Speaker 7: of sense. Who's betting on Penn State, the boosters, who's

2183
01:50:39,800 --> 01:50:40,679
Speaker 7: paying for the nil?

2184
01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:41,480
Speaker 3: The boosters?

2185
01:50:41,800 --> 01:50:44,120
Speaker 7: Like, if you're James Franklin and you have the ability

2186
01:50:44,200 --> 01:50:46,200
Speaker 7: to cover a number, yeah, he's gonna do it. He's

2187
01:50:46,200 --> 01:50:48,280
Speaker 7: gonna probably step on some toes along the way and

2188
01:50:48,560 --> 01:50:51,400
Speaker 7: make some other coaches and players upset, but he doesn't.

2189
01:50:51,160 --> 01:50:52,920
Speaker 3: Care because that's how Penn State operates.

2190
01:50:53,400 --> 01:50:57,160
Speaker 7: Matchup wise, Though the offensive line hasn't been great this year,

2191
01:50:57,560 --> 01:50:59,559
Speaker 7: they have an average run blocking great through four games

2192
01:50:59,560 --> 01:51:02,559
Speaker 7: despite facing lower competition. They're replacing three guys who made

2193
01:51:02,680 --> 01:51:06,120
Speaker 7: NFL Rowsters, including one top fifteen pick for Shanu. I

2194
01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:10,360
Speaker 7: think the pass catching group is not very strong, so

2195
01:51:10,520 --> 01:51:12,639
Speaker 7: they've leaned into the running game.

2196
01:51:13,320 --> 01:51:16,000
Speaker 3: But to Brian's point, Illinois has some dudes up front.

2197
01:51:16,080 --> 01:51:19,160
Speaker 7: Jackison Briggs are you know, better pass rushers than they

2198
01:51:19,160 --> 01:51:21,200
Speaker 7: are run defenders there, but they're plus, you know.

2199
01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:22,599
Speaker 3: Above average players.

2200
01:51:23,160 --> 01:51:25,320
Speaker 7: Briggs left Florida State because he couldn't get any playing time,

2201
01:51:25,680 --> 01:51:29,120
Speaker 7: so maybe he's a little bit, you know, not as

2202
01:51:29,240 --> 01:51:32,080
Speaker 7: talented as some of the others. But yeah, Illinois defensively

2203
01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:33,680
Speaker 7: can get into you a little bit. They're really good

2204
01:51:33,720 --> 01:51:35,560
Speaker 7: at preventing the big play and hunkering down in the

2205
01:51:35,600 --> 01:51:39,720
Speaker 7: green zone. That's kind of their mo. I think if

2206
01:51:40,400 --> 01:51:42,360
Speaker 7: Penn State can get there today, they will. I just

2207
01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:44,080
Speaker 7: think the number is way too heavy for me to bet.

2208
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:47,799
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, hey fair, that is a crazy stat between

2209
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:51,000
Speaker 5: seven and twenty four points. What Penn State's record is

2210
01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:53,439
Speaker 5: against the spread when they're favored by that what did

2211
01:51:53,520 --> 01:51:55,360
Speaker 5: you say? Seventeen one?

2212
01:51:55,479 --> 01:51:58,400
Speaker 7: And those are teams like Illinois that like they're favored

2213
01:51:58,439 --> 01:52:01,680
Speaker 7: against supposed to win, but like the Kent States where

2214
01:52:01,720 --> 01:52:03,960
Speaker 7: they're favored by like forty and it's like, okay, it's

2215
01:52:03,960 --> 01:52:07,040
Speaker 7: tough to cover those numbers. It's like those middle favorite games.

2216
01:52:07,479 --> 01:52:09,439
Speaker 5: And there's some of those lines where it's like, man,

2217
01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:11,960
Speaker 5: I gotta lay twenty one and a half.

2218
01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:15,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you're like, oh gosh, yeah, that's the way

2219
01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:15,560
Speaker 4: to go.

2220
01:52:16,320 --> 01:52:18,679
Speaker 7: And then and then they're up eighteen in the final

2221
01:52:18,760 --> 01:52:20,519
Speaker 7: minute they get that meaningless field goal.

2222
01:52:22,720 --> 01:52:22,920
Speaker 9: Yeah.

2223
01:52:23,040 --> 01:52:23,240
Speaker 7: I know.

2224
01:52:23,439 --> 01:52:26,040
Speaker 4: Sometimes it can go It can go bad or good,

2225
01:52:26,160 --> 01:52:27,240
Speaker 4: depending on which side you're on.

2226
01:52:27,680 --> 01:52:30,439
Speaker 5: I we've got Rich Hornberger, Penn State All American, Jared

Speaker 5: it is the moment of Truth. We have rapid fire

2229
01:52:37,600 --> 01:52:40,240
Speaker 5: three selections east each. I don't know you, guys, I

2230
01:52:40,240 --> 01:52:42,840
Speaker 5: would imagine you're the same. I've got like ten picks I.

2231
01:52:43,120 --> 01:52:45,960
Speaker 4: Like, and I'm like, oh, man, I gotta whittle it

2232
01:52:46,080 --> 01:52:46,400
Speaker 4: down to.

2233
01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:48,599
Speaker 5: The three I like the most. That's a tough call,

2234
01:52:48,720 --> 01:52:51,360
Speaker 5: but we'll compare notes. Coming up next, it is Fox

Speaker 5: witness Nicholas Singleton rushing for under.

2250
01:53:50,960 --> 01:53:53,720
Speaker 2: Eighty two and a half yards today.

2251
01:53:53,880 --> 01:53:56,720
Speaker 3: And four touchdowns. Yeah right, it could be.

2252
01:53:58,600 --> 01:53:59,440
Speaker 2: Can you imagine?

2253
01:53:59,640 --> 01:54:01,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt. All right, we got some picks to make.

2254
01:54:01,920 --> 01:54:07,160
Speaker 2: Let's do it rapid fire.

2255
01:54:07,960 --> 01:54:10,439
Speaker 4: All right, Jared, we start with you. What are you feeling?

2256
01:54:11,120 --> 01:54:14,799
Speaker 7: We'll start with LSU and South Alabama. Big spread obviously

2257
01:54:15,000 --> 01:54:17,280
Speaker 7: with LSU the favorite. We're gonna go over sixty four

2258
01:54:17,280 --> 01:54:19,519
Speaker 7: and a half. I am focusing on the LSU defense,

2259
01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:22,320
Speaker 7: which is outside the top seventy in most metrics, and

2260
01:54:22,479 --> 01:54:25,479
Speaker 7: they are without Harold Perkins who tore his ACL last

2261
01:54:25,520 --> 01:54:27,360
Speaker 7: week tough injury. One of the best linebackers in the

2262
01:54:27,400 --> 01:54:29,479
Speaker 7: country was expected to be a first round pick, but

2263
01:54:29,600 --> 01:54:32,280
Speaker 7: this LSU defense made UCLA look serviceable.

2264
01:54:32,360 --> 01:54:32,680
Speaker 2: Last week.

2265
01:54:32,760 --> 01:54:33,880
Speaker 3: Jase Garber's had a good game.

2266
01:54:34,120 --> 01:54:37,280
Speaker 7: South Alabama's offense is top fifteen across the board. Granted

2267
01:54:37,440 --> 01:54:39,800
Speaker 7: they haven't played anyone, but I think they get enough.

2268
01:54:40,120 --> 01:54:42,240
Speaker 7: And obviously LSU was gonna score as the three touchdown

2269
01:54:42,280 --> 01:54:45,960
Speaker 7: plus favorite over sixty four and a half UNLV minus

2270
01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:48,840
Speaker 7: two and a half. I love this fot Bury Oedim

2271
01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:49,480
Speaker 7: as a great coach.

2272
01:54:49,520 --> 01:54:51,800
Speaker 3: I think he can handle all of the turbulence.

2273
01:54:52,040 --> 01:54:56,400
Speaker 7: And taj Malik Williams the backup quarterback now the starting quarterback.

2274
01:54:56,480 --> 01:55:00,520
Speaker 7: No Sluka, no problem. Malik Williams, Hey forty one starts

2275
01:55:00,560 --> 01:55:04,360
Speaker 7: at Campbell Go Campbell's. He has a very mobile vibe

2276
01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:06,520
Speaker 7: to him. He's got a good arm. I think UNLV

2277
01:55:06,600 --> 01:55:08,880
Speaker 7: gets it done today at home against Presno State minus two.

2278
01:55:08,720 --> 01:55:09,040
Speaker 3: And a half.

2279
01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:11,440
Speaker 7: And of course we talked about this in the last

2280
01:55:11,480 --> 01:55:15,760
Speaker 7: segment earlier in this hour. I love Georgia today. I

2281
01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:18,080
Speaker 7: would wish if we get to pick them, I'll still

2282
01:55:18,200 --> 01:55:22,560
Speaker 7: lay one point bounce back offense, bounce back offensive spot

2283
01:55:22,640 --> 01:55:23,880
Speaker 7: here and Obama defense.

2284
01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:26,640
Speaker 3: They haven't played anyone. I think this is a dog

2285
01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:30,240
Speaker 3: day in Tuscaloosa. Georgia at UNLV and the over LSU

2286
01:55:30,360 --> 01:55:31,040
Speaker 3: South Alabama.

2287
01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:36,080
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna go to Georgia Bama. It is the

2288
01:55:36,360 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 2: game of the weekend. Here's the thing.

2289
01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:41,840
Speaker 6: I keep waffling back and forth about this final score.

2290
01:55:41,960 --> 01:55:44,000
Speaker 6: So I'm gonna go to the first half. Georgia more

2291
01:55:44,080 --> 01:55:47,600
Speaker 6: battle tested earlier this season. Even though they're on the road,

2292
01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:50,160
Speaker 6: I'm gonna give them the slight edge in the first half.

2293
01:55:50,560 --> 01:55:52,800
Speaker 6: I'm gonna say they cover the half point on the

2294
01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:55,960
Speaker 6: road against the tie, against the tied, They're going to

2295
01:55:56,080 --> 01:55:57,160
Speaker 6: have the lead going.

2296
01:55:57,040 --> 01:56:00,480
Speaker 2: In the tunnel, all right, Gilnoy at Penn State, it's

2297
01:56:00,520 --> 01:56:01,120
Speaker 2: a night game.

2298
01:56:01,480 --> 01:56:05,919
Speaker 6: James Franklin asking for white out energy in the stands.

2299
01:56:06,240 --> 01:56:09,760
Speaker 6: I'm gonna say Penn State covers seventeen and a half

2300
01:56:09,920 --> 01:56:12,480
Speaker 6: poils because James Franklin.

2301
01:56:12,200 --> 01:56:14,960
Speaker 2: He likes to channel Sir mix Lock. He likes to

2302
01:56:15,040 --> 01:56:18,520
Speaker 2: cover big spreads, and that ain't no lie, all right.

2303
01:56:18,640 --> 01:56:23,080
Speaker 6: Jeremiah Love Notre Dame running back eight and a half

2304
01:56:23,160 --> 01:56:26,800
Speaker 6: receiving yards. I'm packing the over Riley Leonard has only

2305
01:56:27,000 --> 01:56:30,480
Speaker 6: seven passing attempts beyond twenty yards of the line of scrimmage.

2306
01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:34,720
Speaker 6: In the past four games, He's eleven of twenty four

2307
01:56:35,040 --> 01:56:38,040
Speaker 6: on passes ten yards beyond the line of scrimmage. He

2308
01:56:38,240 --> 01:56:41,040
Speaker 6: likes to throw to his running backs. He will Jeremiah

2309
01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:43,520
Speaker 6: Love over eight and a half receiving yards.

2310
01:56:43,960 --> 01:56:48,040
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, I like it. Okay, So I've whittled

2311
01:56:48,080 --> 01:56:49,360
Speaker 4: it down to three picks here.

2312
01:56:49,800 --> 01:56:55,400
Speaker 5: First pick, Memphis was awful last week against Navy nyve

2313
01:56:55,520 --> 01:56:59,600
Speaker 5: what they scored fifty six points? Davy would play it now.

2314
01:57:00,560 --> 01:57:04,280
Speaker 5: I'm laying twenty five and a half with Memphis today.

2315
01:57:04,320 --> 01:57:10,440
Speaker 5: They're hosting Middle Tennessee. Middle Tennessee sucks. They are freaking terrible.

2316
01:57:10,680 --> 01:57:13,600
Speaker 5: And Memphis, who got the doors blown off him last week,

2317
01:57:14,480 --> 01:57:17,480
Speaker 5: They're gonna be focused. This is not sleep walking through

2318
01:57:17,600 --> 01:57:20,760
Speaker 5: the game against Middle Tennessee. I think they're they're out

2319
01:57:20,840 --> 01:57:25,040
Speaker 5: for blood in this game. So I think that they

2320
01:57:25,640 --> 01:57:26,920
Speaker 5: cover a big spread here.

2321
01:57:28,320 --> 01:57:32,360
Speaker 4: I'm moving forward. I'm gonna double down. I love kJ Jefferson,

2322
01:57:32,440 --> 01:57:36,080
Speaker 4: the UCF quarterback under two hundred and nine and a

2323
01:57:36,120 --> 01:57:39,000
Speaker 4: half passing yards today. I think UCF just runs it

2324
01:57:39,160 --> 01:57:43,160
Speaker 4: like crazy. Against Colorado. I don't see kJ Jefferson throwing

2325
01:57:43,200 --> 01:57:45,840
Speaker 4: it for a whole lot game script. Just stick with

2326
01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:49,160
Speaker 4: what's working. If the running game's working, why throw it now?

2327
01:57:51,360 --> 01:57:52,560
Speaker 4: That's what I just said.

2328
01:57:52,720 --> 01:57:57,680
Speaker 5: Right then, I'm gonna go against that here because no, yes,

2329
01:57:58,200 --> 01:58:00,880
Speaker 5: based on principle, I'm sorry.

2330
01:58:01,120 --> 01:58:04,280
Speaker 4: Alex Orgy seventy nine.

2331
01:58:04,080 --> 01:58:08,160
Speaker 5: And a half is passing yards against Minnesota.

2332
01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:11,000
Speaker 4: That's just way too low.

2333
01:58:11,560 --> 01:58:14,600
Speaker 5: This isn't like kJ Jefferson two oh nine and a

2334
01:58:14,720 --> 01:58:17,600
Speaker 5: half with the ground game that's gonna be firing at

2335
01:58:17,600 --> 01:58:18,400
Speaker 5: all cylinders.

2336
01:58:18,800 --> 01:58:22,800
Speaker 4: This is Michigan against Minnesota. Seventy nine and a half.

2337
01:58:23,200 --> 01:58:25,360
Speaker 4: He's not getting the eighty yards passing.

2338
01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:28,520
Speaker 5: I just don't believe it. I'll shrug my shoulders and

2339
01:58:28,600 --> 01:58:30,560
Speaker 5: walk away to loser if he doesn't get to eighty

2340
01:58:30,640 --> 01:58:33,560
Speaker 5: yards passing. But I will take that all day with

2341
01:58:33,680 --> 01:58:37,000
Speaker 5: alex Orgy. He gets to at least eighty yards passing against.

2342
01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:39,960
Speaker 2: The Golden Golfers today, that is such a crazy number.

2343
01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:43,000
Speaker 2: I mean, that is such a crazy number. That's like

2344
01:58:43,240 --> 01:58:46,080
Speaker 2: that's like one of the Service academies, you know what

2345
01:58:46,120 --> 01:58:49,640
Speaker 2: I mean, Like where the passing attack is like, yeah,

2346
01:58:49,680 --> 01:58:52,520
Speaker 2: it's just icing on the cake. If you complete a pass.

2347
01:58:53,000 --> 01:58:54,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that's wild man when.

2348
01:58:54,600 --> 01:58:57,280
Speaker 7: He has ten yards at halftime in Michigan's up thirty,

2349
01:58:58,360 --> 01:58:59,920
Speaker 7: I'm gonna I'm gonna text you guys.

2350
01:59:00,000 --> 01:59:01,840
Speaker 3: They're gonna be like, Brian, you regretting this one?

2351
01:59:01,920 --> 01:59:02,160
Speaker 7: And all?

2352
01:59:02,240 --> 01:59:02,440
Speaker 9: Yeah.

2353
01:59:02,560 --> 01:59:05,080
Speaker 4: Can I say something that would be a good sweat?

2354
01:59:05,840 --> 01:59:07,480
Speaker 4: I think that maybe a little radical.

2355
01:59:07,680 --> 01:59:10,280
Speaker 5: I think there's a better chance Orgy gets to eighty

2356
01:59:10,360 --> 01:59:13,440
Speaker 5: yards passing in the first half than doesn't get there

2357
01:59:13,520 --> 01:59:14,480
Speaker 5: in the entire game.

2358
01:59:14,680 --> 01:59:15,080
Speaker 2: That's fair.

2359
01:59:16,320 --> 01:59:20,600
Speaker 4: A third and seven, a two minute drill, an out route.

2360
01:59:21,120 --> 01:59:22,480
Speaker 3: You need the game to be close.

2361
01:59:22,600 --> 01:59:25,480
Speaker 4: Oh, this is cashing. Let's get it on this. Orgy

2362
01:59:25,640 --> 01:59:27,040
Speaker 4: over seventy nine and a half
