1 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: I think a lesser man runs from this show tonight. 2 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: A lesser man would be terrified. A lesser man if 3 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: he went oho to seven picking Washington and Michigan games 4 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: this year, would tap out, would call in sick, would 5 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: pretend is vocal cords were damaged after throwing up from 6 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: food poisoning, something along those lines. 7 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 2: I friends have chosen the opposite approach. 8 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 1: I am leaning into tonight's show as defiant as I 9 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: possibly can. You may say Pride goes before the Fall, 10 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: but I would counter humble men die every day too. 11 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: That's a meme all quote. It's not a meme all quote. 12 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: I'm all alone. I made it up. I am terrified. 13 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: But I do think we had one little sliver, one 14 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: little ray of hope in sunshine that made its way 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: into the office a little while ago. I think things 16 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: are turning around for me on the Husky Wolverine front, 17 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: and not a moment too soon, because we are headed 18 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: to Houston tomorrow for the National Championship Game. But tonight 19 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: we are jam packed. We are high a top a 20 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: Chiley downtown Nashville, Tennessee Late Kick Live for Thursday night, 21 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: January fourth. Fear of our lower twenty twenty four. Yes, 22 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: we will predict the national championship game tonight, but we've 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 1: also got portal bombs going off left and right. We 24 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: got Ohio State having a quarterback within the last hour 25 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: or two. We got big changes coming in college football. 26 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna broach that tonight. I think there's 27 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: a much larger conversation to be had, probably after the 28 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: curtain falls on the twenty twenty four to twenty twenty 29 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: three season, and maybe next week we'll do this. But 30 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: too many of you have asked what I meant by 31 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: something I put out there the other day, So I 32 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: will address that tonight. 33 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: And LSU is making moves. 34 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: LSU Brian Kelly just woke up and hit the dump 35 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: button on his entire defensive staff. Also not a moment 36 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: too soon, they would argue down there, So I'm gonna 37 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: talk about that. I got several radical proposals you guys 38 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: have come at me with. We've got a jam packed show. 39 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: Olive Branch, Mississippi is too tuned in, as is Amarillo, Texas, Louisville, Kentucky, 40 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: and Bristol, Tennessee. Thank you guys so much. Let's waste 41 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: no time. Frankly, I didn't plan on two nights ago 42 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: going seventy two minutes, but it did. So let's try 43 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: and have a nice, nice compact show tonight. Michigan versus 44 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: Washington is about as good a contrast in styles as 45 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: we can get for the National Championship game. And I 46 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: was racking my brain, what is this, what does this 47 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: compare to? What's the data point in history? And of course, 48 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: of course it's March twenty ninth, nineteen eighty seven. It's 49 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: ninety three, one hundred and seventy three people in the 50 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: Pontiac Silver Dome in Pontiac, Michigan for WrestleMania three. It's 51 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: Hulk Hogan, It's Andre the Giant, It's the irresistible force 52 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: meeting the immovable object. That's basically what we have this 53 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: Monday night in Houston. More or less, I don't think 54 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: the outcome has been determined yet, and hey to hear 55 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: a hul Cogan till it. The outcome of that match 56 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: wasn't determined until the day of. But I can't wait 57 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 1: for the matchup. Just the clash of styles. Now what 58 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: I want I'll say, as you look in the top 59 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: of the screen, here or if you listen on podcasts 60 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: and you hear that FanDuel currently has Michigan as a 61 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: four and a half point favorite. I will say this, sometimes, 62 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 1: when you have these contrasting styles and you have these 63 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: point spreads under a touchdown, everyone walks around day of 64 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,519 Speaker 1: the game. I hear it every single time, and they say, Oh, 65 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: it'll be a great game tonight. Oh man, it's gonna 66 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: come down to the whoever has the ball last. I 67 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 1: don't know about that. Sometimes in a styles clash matchup, 68 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: it's thirty to ten in the fourth quarter. Other times 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: it's thirty to thirty, or maybe it's ten to ten 70 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. I don't necessarily have the best 71 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: feel on that. I do have a kind of feel 72 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: on the style of game we're gonna get. So let's 73 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: just hop into this. I wonder if Michigan's going to 74 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: take the bait. JJ McCarthy could set himself up to 75 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: have opportunities to go off in this thing. But as 76 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: you well know, Michigan is a run first team and 77 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: they are very good. I get Blake Korum, he's one 78 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: of the best players we've seen in college football. They 79 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: can run on Washington. I don't think the stat profiles. 80 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't even think a Washington fan 81 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: would argue otherwise. Twelve of fourteen opponents that have faced 82 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: Washington have gone over one hundred on the ground, and 83 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: several have gone well over one hundred on the ground. 84 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: You got Blake Corny, you got JJ McCarthy, you got 85 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: that offensive line. Yes, they can do work on the ground, 86 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: and it probably best suits Michigan to own the game 87 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: on the ground and do what they did against Bama. 88 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: Just bleed clock and it feels like you're never getting 89 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: the ball back, and certainly there's that voice in the 90 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: back of your mind that says, more you have the ball, 91 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: the less that dude over there, that left handed quarterback 92 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: has the ball. Yes, yes, that's all on the table. However, 93 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: the bait I'm talking about is that offensive staff knowing 94 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: full well this is the worst pass defense statistically that 95 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: they have faced all year. Michigan has seen one other 96 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: pass defense that's even remotely as statistically bad as Washington, 97 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: and that's Purdue, and JJ McCarthy went twenty four to 98 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: thirty seven for three thirty five against them. So it 99 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: could very well be that Michigan's offensive brain trust look 100 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: at this matchup and say, yeah, we could run the 101 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: ball if we wanted to, but why not take what's there. 102 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: Why not play to our strengths versus their weakness, and 103 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: let's let this quarterback we trust go off. Now, the 104 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: reason I call it bait is because I think that 105 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: is obviously something that could work for them. But if 106 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: I were to randomly turn this game on in the 107 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: third quarter and Washington's up because Michigan's turn the ball over, 108 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: it's probably that style of play that puts you at 109 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: greater risk. I don't think they're gonna coach scared in 110 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: the game or anything like that. And it may be 111 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: that they throw the ball in Washington and they go off. 112 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: They don't turn the ball over. It's high percentage stuff. 113 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: It's it's moved the pocket left and right, it's play action. 114 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: I don't doubt they'll have their stuff together here. I 115 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: just wonder if they think it necessary. That's my first 116 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: point there. My second point on this game is explosive 117 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: plays are the key for Washington. 118 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: They have been all year. They were against Texas. 119 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: That insane stat Michael Pennocks had he was he was 120 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: seven of eleven for two hundred and fifty seven yards 121 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: on throws that went fifteen or more yards in the air. 122 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: That's not that dump stuff in the flat and let. 123 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 2: Your yards after catch takeover. 124 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: That is balls that leave your hand and go at 125 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: least fifteen yards before it touches your receiver. Seven of 126 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: eleven for two fifty seven. That's video game stuff. You're 127 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: not supposed to be able to do that in a 128 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: playoff game. Michael Pennock's most twenty plus yard deep balls 129 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: in America this year five point two yards, or forget 130 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: the yardage, that wouldn't be a good stat He averages 131 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: five point two explosive pass plays per game. And yet 132 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: I just watched Michigan shut down Alabama on that front. Now, 133 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 1: this is an entirely different passing attack. I will grant 134 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: you that all day twice on Sunday or twice on Monday. 135 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: But Bama didn't even have a pass over thirty yards 136 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: and they have been fairly effective at doing that particular 137 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: thing this year. 138 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,119 Speaker 2: Michigan runs a ton of zone. 139 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: I didn't do the full forensic breakdown of zone versus 140 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 1: man and what Michael Pennis and Washington has seen this year. 141 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: But our buddies over at PFF kind of did Michigan's 142 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: run zone seventy six percent of their defensive snaps this year. 143 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 2: That's seventh most in the country. 144 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: I don't doubt that that's what Washington sees from them 145 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: Monday night. And so it may be that you have 146 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: to be a little more methodical, or conversely, it could 147 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: be that Romadunze pulls on Marvin Harrison. We were looking 148 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: at wide receiver ones and what they've done against Michigan 149 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: this year, and Harrison went off because he goes off 150 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: against pretty much anyone. But outside of Marvin Harrison, no 151 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: one really went off at that wide receiver one position 152 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: against Michigan. But there really isn't a Romadunzee elsewhere on 153 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: their schedule. And it's not just him, it's McClellan, it's 154 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: it's Polk, it's or McMillan, not McClellan, it's him and Polk. 155 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: It's a bunch of guys. 156 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: So you know, there's a there's a school of thought 157 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: out there from folks picking Washington in this game that 158 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: there was never an opportunity for Michigan to see this 159 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: kind of passing attack this year. 160 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 2: And that's true. There's no doubt in my mind that's accurate. 161 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: It comes down to that same age old question, does 162 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: good offense bit good defense? Which is, if you're not 163 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: intrigued by the helmets on the field, is what should 164 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: intrigue you about this game? Because people have argued this 165 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: forever and we get another chapter in that philosophy versus 166 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: philosophy debate Monday night. I think the start in this 167 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,239 Speaker 1: game is very, very key. A lot of times that's overhyped. 168 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: A lot of times you get folks who say, and 169 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: I think if first ten minutes will tell us everything 170 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 1: we need to know, which sometimes is completely ridiculous. Other times, though, 171 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: when you have such a contrast in style and such 172 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: a difference in the way teams want to play a 173 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: football game. If you have Michigan go three and out 174 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: in Washington, grab an early seven or ten point lead 175 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: and force them to play catch up, that is worlds 176 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: different than Michigan forcing a three and out and going 177 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 1: eleven plays seventy two yards in six minutes and forty 178 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: eight seconds and putting a score on the board. And 179 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: then you're scared if they force another three and out, 180 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: we could end up near halftime, and we've held the 181 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: ball twice or three times. Obviously in a game where 182 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: it's oil and water. In terms of philosophy, that's very important. 183 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: Last game for each of these teams. Last game. Think 184 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: about it from the Rose Bowl early, in the Sugar 185 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: Bowl late. Think about how they came out of the gate. 186 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: Because as much as Michigan ended up celebrating and winning 187 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: a game, I thought they played really tight early on 188 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: special teams were disaster for them all night long. Conversely, 189 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: Washington came out firing. Now I don't have any reason 190 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: to believe that that's just a copy paste. Duplicate that, 191 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: and that'll be the same Monday night. For all I know, 192 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: it'll be inverted and Washington will be tight in Michigan 193 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 1: will play with. 194 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: Their hair on fire. 195 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: But in a weird way, I almost gain confidence if 196 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm Michigan, cause eight times out of ten, you're supposed 197 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: to lose that game. If you play a team as 198 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: good as Alabama and you're that bad in a third 199 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: of the game, you're supposed to lose. The Fact that 200 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 1: you didn't, and now you get an opportunity to clean 201 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: all that up, it bodes well for me. 202 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 2: I'd actually have a little confidence. 203 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: But also if I was Kaylin debor me, if I'm 204 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: Kaalan de Bor, I've been there before, I'll be it 205 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: at a different level. I've coached in championship settings. My 206 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: team hasn't. But now that I've seen them in the 207 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: Superdome in a semi final against Blue Blood Texas, against 208 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: that Longhorn, against a seventy five to twenty five crowd split, 209 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: and we never flinched and we made them play catch 210 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: up all night. Dude, my guys didn't have to sit 211 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: around a month after that game. We went back home 212 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 1: and we got to be back on the road three 213 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: days later, and it's a week afterwards. I don't doubt 214 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: that both of them will come out fireing Firing means 215 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: different things for different teams here, but that special teams, 216 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: that special teams aspect for Michigan, I'd be very surprised 217 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 1: if that was duplicated here. I'm not saying it'll be 218 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: the best in the world, but I'd be very surprised 219 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: if that was duplicated here. 220 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: So we arrive at the moment that everyone's waited on. 221 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: But me, I was like a kid sitting outside the 222 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: principal's office because they called my parents to come pick 223 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: me up today. I didn't want this show to arrive. 224 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: I have been disastrous. The Model has been disastrous on 225 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: Michigan and really Washington this year. And as you know, 226 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: I've never been wrong on a game in my life. 227 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: When I have picked a team that didn't end up 228 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 1: winning the game, it's always been either kids or coaches 229 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 1: or officials who screwed it up. I was right, they 230 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: screwed it up. My fear is that I could end 231 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,839 Speaker 1: up being wrong for the first time in my illustrious 232 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: career tonight. But we're going to do it anyway. The 233 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: Model right now looks at the fan duel number, which 234 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: is Michigan minus four and a half, and it says, 235 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: we think it's right the model. 236 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: The model is right here. It's talking to me. It 237 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 2: says Michigan minus five. 238 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: But anyone who's followed the JP pole all year understands 239 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: that the Model even today does not have Washington in. 240 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: Its top five. So it's been wrong all year. So 241 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,719 Speaker 2: what do we do here? 242 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: Well, I've had a few ideas, but I scrapped all 243 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: of them. Like I said, I want to be defiant here. 244 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,719 Speaker 1: I want to lean In, But I also want to 245 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: tell you something. I think both of you are going 246 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: to lose Monday night. I just happened to think Michigan's 247 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: gonna lose a little bit less than Washington is. And so, 248 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 1: with much angst and anger and bitterness all around the 249 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: great state of Michigan, I'm telling you guys, I think 250 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: somehow you're going to pull it out. But before you 251 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: get mad at me, and before you think that I've 252 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: just written your obituary three or four days early, Colin, 253 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: could you please show the fine folks at home what 254 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: arrived at our doorstep earlier today. Because I ordered PF 255 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: Chains and they don't pay us a dime, by the way, 256 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: but I ordered PF Chains and I didn't even care 257 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: what the food was. I just told them load us 258 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: up with as many Fortune Cookies as you can because 259 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 1: I need one. 260 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: And I cracked open. 261 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: I want to say seven, Jesse, I cracked open, cracked 262 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: open seven or eight Fortune cookies and PF chanins. I 263 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: just didn't like the first seven. But on the eighth try, 264 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: that's what came out. And if you're listening on podcasts, 265 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: it says all I needed to know, and that is 266 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: victory is just around the corner. 267 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: I don't care what TSA says. 268 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: That will be in my pocket when I head over 269 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: to the airport tomorrow. I am taking that on the 270 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: road with me. And I'm oho in seven right now 271 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: picking these games with these teams. But you mark my words, 272 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: and in the words of mister Chang, mister pf over there, 273 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: I will be one in seven by the time that 274 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: the confetti settles and the dust settles Monday night. And 275 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 1: if that doesn't work, I'll probably just retire these two 276 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: teams and we will never. 277 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: Talk about them again. So there you go. I'm picking 278 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 2: Michigan not to lose. 279 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: I'm not even going to be so bold as to 280 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: pick a winner in the game, but with the wind 281 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: of PF Chain's fortune cookies in my sales, i am 282 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: picking Michigan not to lose Monday Night. I hope you're happy, 283 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: because I'm not. Let us move on because we got 284 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: a lot of news breaking today. Normally, when we're on 285 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: the semi eve of a national championship game, the rest 286 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: of the sport is sort of quiet. That has not 287 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: been the case, not at all. The transfer portal, you 288 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: can see the flames from miles away just bombs going 289 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: off in the transfer portal today. First off, quin Shawn 290 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: Judkins has entered the transfer portal. That is the number 291 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: one tail back at Old Miss. Some would say the 292 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: number one tailback in the country at the very least 293 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: is in the conversation to be that, which I think 294 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: struck some people as odd because if you're not paying 295 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: attention to the day today of this, you probably have 296 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: seen Old Miss racking up in the portal and you 297 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: would have thought, well, certainly, if they're going and getting 298 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: guys out of the portal, they're not gonna lose guys 299 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: to the portal. Well, that's where you have to get 300 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: a little nuanced and get a little into the weeds here. 301 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: Quin Shawn Judkins is a supreme talent. Quin Shawn Judkins 302 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: knows that as well. I did some digging around Oxford 303 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: figuratively today and I could not find anyone over there 304 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: to act shocked about this. Now, I'm not shocked. We've 305 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: been waiting on this. We've had this prep for like 306 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: a month. I thought he was going to be in 307 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: there a month ago, so we expected this. I will 308 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: say that the sentiment in Oxford is wish you well, next, 309 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: that's been kind of the sentiment. Now, if you hadn't 310 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: followed the day to day here, you may think that 311 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: they're they're tossing televisions out of windows and they're burning couches. 312 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 2: That's not the case. They're okay with it. Judkins is 313 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 2: okay with it. 314 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: Just kind of a situation maybe where both parties needed 315 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: to move on. And that's the best and most professional, 316 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: sanitized way that I can summarize that. Guys, this is 317 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: a new era of college foot ball and there are 318 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: factors in play very publicly that didn't used to be 319 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: in play, and so until things change, occasionally you're going 320 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: to see star players randomly move on and you can 321 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: read between the lines and know exactly why. And if 322 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: someone doesn't want to play that game, someone else out 323 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: there will play that game to the tune that that 324 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: person wants the game played at. And I'd keep an 325 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: eye on Auburn in This is what I'm trying to 326 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 1: tell you. Alabama departures, We've seen several of them, and 327 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: this is going to be normal for them every year. 328 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: It's going to be normal for all the top teams 329 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: every year. There's a list a mile long on our 330 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: screen right now. The ones that have stood out to me. 331 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: Earl Little Junior is a defensive back that figured to 332 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: have a bigger role this year, but he's had a 333 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: couple of injuries that have set him back a little bit. 334 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: He's in the portal. Malik Benson, a wide receiver for them. 335 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: Out of all the kids who have gone in the portal, 336 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: that's the one that I've gotten feedback on the most, 337 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: to the tune of wow, really hate that. That's the 338 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: one that's kind of struck the nerve with the locals 339 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: there and people inside the program elsewhere. This is going 340 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: to be normal for the Alabamas of the world. You're 341 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: going to have half a dozen to a dozen guys 342 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: every year. A Seth McLoughlin had the most trouble that 343 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 1: I've ever seen at the major college football level snapping 344 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 1: a ball the other night in the semi final game. 345 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: He's in the portal, had a couple of other offensive linemen, 346 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,959 Speaker 1: a couple of defensive linemen. They have gotten word that 347 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: several guys are coming back. I want to say, Malachi Moore, 348 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: I want to say, I say I saw that earlier today. 349 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: Deontay Lawson, the linebacker coming back. So it's a mixed 350 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: bag there. I think Arnold and Cool later going pro. 351 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: So this is Georgia, this is Alabama. It's like every 352 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: year for them, it's just different names. Any given you 353 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: a Christian story in the portals of Corey Brooks a 354 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago in the portal, So keep an 355 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,840 Speaker 1: eye on Alabama. We were keeping an eye on Julian Fleming, 356 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: and he has landed at penn State. He has committed 357 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: to penn State. That was a former number one wide 358 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: receiver in the country. Out of Pennsylvania, he went to 359 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: Ohio State, kind of lost in the shuffle of a 360 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: really deep wide receiver room there. Now, look, once upon 361 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: a time Jamison Williams left Ohio State having done not 362 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: much and went to Alabama and exploded him. Don't make 363 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: that your expectation. It's only going to set you up 364 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: for heartbreak. Don't be expecting Fleming to come in there 365 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: to Happy Valley and rewrite the record books eleven hundred 366 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: yards receiving this upcoming fall. Just be surprised if it 367 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: does happen. Don't be mad if it doesn't happen. Having 368 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: said that, that wide receiver room is badly in need 369 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: of skill, and it's badly in need of maturity. You know, 370 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: you saw Dante Seiphas hit the door once upon a time. 371 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: They brought him in from Kent State last year and 372 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: thought he'd be one of the answers to the prayers 373 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: of that room. Didn't work out that way. I don't 374 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: even think he played in the Peach Bowl, so he's 375 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: moved on. Maybe they're not done there, but at the 376 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: very least, Lee you got a guy in Fleming who 377 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,159 Speaker 1: has seen the way it's done at one of the 378 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: premiere programs for that position in the country. 379 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 2: So we'll see. You got a new offensive. 380 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 1: Coordinator in there as well, a lot of moving parts. 381 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: They're offensively at Penn State right now. Within the last 382 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: couple of hours, we've had big news come down. 383 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 2: Look at that beautiful b roll. Look at that. 384 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: If you're listening on podcasts, it's Iowa State versus Kansas 385 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: State in a snowstorm. Pretty vigorous, pretty vigorous, low pressure 386 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: system going to sweep across the country early next week. 387 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: By the way, some of your backyards will look like 388 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: that anyway, Will Howard, here's what I was getting to 389 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 1: Will Howard, former quarterback of Kansas State. It looked like 390 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: he was going to head to USC. Then Miller Moss 391 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: decided to plant his flag in the ground in the 392 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: bowl game, and Will Howard said, Hm, probably not going there. 393 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to Ohio State. Boom today commits to 394 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: Ohio State. So Ohio State has their guy. After McCord 395 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: moved on to Syracuse. You had Devin Brown there, but 396 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: I think you watched the Cotton Bowl as well as 397 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 1: I did, and you said. 398 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 2: Nope, don't like that. 399 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: And so oh Ryan Day has gone and gotten Will 400 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: Howard six five, two hundred and forty two pounds. He 401 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: was the number six quarterback in the portal. 402 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 2: I like him. 403 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: I like the move for them, and this is not 404 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,479 Speaker 1: some place where he's going to have to go in 405 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: and single handedly resurrect the offense. You got a lot 406 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 1: of competent, proven pieces around you. Just get first downs. 407 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: That's truly what they need there. Just move the ball, 408 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: get first downs occasionally. He's got twenty seven starts. They're 409 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: going to have a really good defense there next year. 410 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: So that's official as of late this afternoon. Will Howard 411 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: and Ohio State. Remember Nick Scourton, he was the Purdue player, 412 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 1: the edge player out of Purdue that I told you 413 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: to watch because he had hit the portal and he 414 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: I think he led Jesse. 415 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 2: Was it? He led the big ten in sacks last year? 416 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 2: Was that it? Okay? 417 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: Well, he scheduled four visits, and we told you that 418 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: Tuesday A and M was the first visit. 419 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 2: Update eight. 420 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,919 Speaker 1: There will be no more visits. Mike Elko and company 421 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: have locked him down and he has committed to Texas 422 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 1: A and M. So if you had the other three visits, 423 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Fight to get the first visit old school recruiting. 424 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: You wanted the last visit in in portal season, you 425 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: want the first visit, and then you want to push 426 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: the other visits out the door. You want to just 427 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: slam the door in their face. And that's what Mike 428 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: Elko did. Hey, a lot of momentum, by the way, 429 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: from that staff. Now, naturally, I grew up in West 430 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: central Georgia, so I'm a noted Aggie Homer. Whatever evidence 431 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: they have is whatever evidence they have, But it feels good. 432 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: Some early returns, you know, on that seismograph that they 433 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: use to measure seismic activity. 434 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 2: The pen's just kind of going like this right now 435 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 2: in college station. 436 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: So that's not up and down, you know, not a 437 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: seven point three magnitude quake eminent, but moving up and 438 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: down Colin, that's where you can hit the outro. 439 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,600 Speaker 2: So little story for you right quick. 440 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: I have experienced eleven tornadoes in my life. Because I 441 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: chase tornadoes, they didn't come find me. I have seen 442 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: all kinds of severe weather. I've covered a Category four 443 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: hurricane like I've seen all kinds of weather. But I've 444 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 1: never experienced an earthquake. So most people don't want to 445 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: experience an earthquake. I do on my terms. I don't 446 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: want to be in a building, but I've always kind 447 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: of wanted to be like out in a wide open 448 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: space and feel a minor to moderate earthquake just to 449 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 1: say I have. So I'm in the Rose Bowl Monday 450 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: and I was doing a live hit really early in 451 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: the morning. They hadn't open the gates to the public, 452 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: so I do my live hit. After I get done, 453 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: they informed me two things had happened. First, there was 454 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: an earthquake in Los Angeles and I didn't even feel it. 455 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: And secondly, the rock walked by and I didn't even 456 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 1: get to see him because I was on the air, 457 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: and I can only assume that the Rock did not 458 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: come over and say, Hi, Josh, love the show because 459 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: you wanted to be professional and not interrupt the live shot, 460 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: and Dwayne, if I can call you that, we appreciate that. 461 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: But I wanted to feel the earthquake, and I didn't 462 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: feel the earthquake, and apparently some of our colleagues that 463 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: had not left our hotel. 464 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 2: Yet did so missed opportunity. 465 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: I guess Academy Sports and Outdoors sells tents that I 466 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: would call earthquake proof only because if they fall on you, 467 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: they don't hurt you, but they do protect you from 468 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: every other element. And that's one reason to shop there. 469 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: Another reason is look and listen to the show tonight. 470 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: It's free, it has been freak, it will be free 471 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: for the foreseeable future. Number one because you subscribe to 472 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: the channel in the podcast, which helps. And number two 473 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: because we got Academy right there having our back. Academy 474 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: dot com is where you can go if you can't 475 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: get there in person. A wide, wide, wide selection of 476 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 1: sporting goods, but also just life essentials up to ind 477 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: not limited to Big League chew and spring, albeit a 478 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: couple of months away, will be here soon enough, and 479 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: I would encourage you guys, get outdoors in twenty twenty 480 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 1: four and get to Academy Sports and Outdoors right before 481 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: you do. I mean, they literally have outdoors in the name, 482 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: So you don't trust me on it, trust them. But 483 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: good people at Academy and we appreciate them. So I 484 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: think it's time to talk about this. Let me take 485 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: a sip out of the chalice. Kind of an unfortunate situation. Tuesday, 486 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: we had a record number of whale breach sounds because 487 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: my nasal passages were stopped up, and that's the only 488 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: mechanism I have to fight that. On air, someone started 489 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,239 Speaker 1: putting whale emojis in the chat. I don't appreciate it, 490 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: but I get it, and I would probably do the 491 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: same thing. So the other day I put out a tweet. 492 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: I was out in Los Angeles and everyone's there. A 493 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: lot of power players in the industry are there, so 494 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: naturally you talk to some people that you only get 495 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: to run into a couple of times a year. And 496 00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:03,680 Speaker 1: the topics slash topics on everyone's mind were nil conference realignment, 497 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: the future playoff contract, the expanded playoffs, all that stuff 498 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: kind of in this rubber band ball of confusion, and 499 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: it seems like things are coming that are very, very 500 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: substantial in college football. 501 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 2: So I put this tweet out the other day. 502 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: I said, I'm very confident big changes are coming in 503 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: college football. Multiple tipping points have been hit. I don't 504 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: know when or how yet, but every powerful person seems 505 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: aligned in their belief that something big is emminent. So 506 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: who am I talking about? What am I talking about? 507 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: Let me get to the what in a second. The 508 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: who is presidents, coaches, absolutely, networks, network executives, advertising partners, commissioners, basically, 509 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: all the power players you need at the table are 510 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: in alignment that what's happening right now is not sustainable, 511 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: it's not work, it's not acceptable. Now you may think 512 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: to yourself, well, that's always been the case, Josh, Nope, Nope, 513 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: it hasn't. There have been pockets of those people. Coaches, 514 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 1: most notably, been pissed off for a long time about 515 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: the current status because you got people who have never 516 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: coached or play a day in their life, who have 517 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: built the world that they have to live in and 518 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 1: exist in, and that's rubbed them the wrong way, just 519 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: like it would rub you the wrong way. But lately 520 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: what's happened is other parts of the game have become unsustainable. 521 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: Let me just kick you a scenario. What if you're Verbo, 522 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,399 Speaker 1: What if you're a major ad partner like Discovery. Well 523 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: I won't even limit it to a specific ad partner, 524 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: but let's just say you're a major ad partner and 525 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,959 Speaker 1: the Orange Bowl or the Sugar Bowl or the Cotton 526 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: Bowl approaches you and wants you to enter into an 527 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: extended naming rights agreement with that particular game. Sounds good, man, 528 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 1: College football is on fire, and so you agree to 529 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: a very lofty price point, and then the game is sixty. 530 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: Three to three. How would you feel about that? Not 531 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 2: too good? Right? Well, unlike you and unlike me, and 532 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 2: unlike maybe someone in the late Kick live chat right now, 533 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 2: or maybe unlike someone in section three thirty eight. 534 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: Those voices resonate, and they resonate loudly, because when your 535 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: ad partners don't like the product you're giving them in 536 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: bowl season, that gets people's attention. When coaches that are 537 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: powerful enough unite and speak up and say, yeah, this 538 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: is untenable, this is gonna work now, people listen, and 539 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: when a lot of those voices also coincide with television 540 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: network executives who say, hold on a second, you guys 541 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: are pitching us on bidding on a new college football 542 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 1: playoff tournament, but you can't even guarantee us what the 543 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: structure of the sport's gonna look like. You can't even 544 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,239 Speaker 1: guarantee us what you're policies are going to be year 545 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: to year, whether it comes to nil or portal. No, 546 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: we're not signing off on that. When all of those 547 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: voices are aligned, then the power brokers realize it's probably 548 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: time to roll off our sleeves and get to work. 549 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: And if it means making concessions that we were previously 550 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: unwilling to make, if it means broaching that E word 551 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: employment status, if it means revenue sharing, if it means 552 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: doing it what I'm telling you, based on the feedback 553 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 1: I got last week in la is they're ready to 554 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: do it. 555 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 2: That was the battle that had to be fought behind 556 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 2: the scenes. Okay, first off, getting alignment with these people 557 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 2: and getting them to agree on something is very hard. 558 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 2: It's like hurting cats, and somehow the kittens are all 559 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: in a row right now, the next question is, obviously, 560 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 2: what's the timeline and what are the answers going to be? 561 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: That right there, I think is going to be answered 562 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 2: a little bit quicker than maybe you would typically expect, 563 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: because in college sports, nothing's ever moved fast. It is 564 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: a molasses in December sales pace normally to get change 565 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 2: in this sport. Here's the good news. The good news 566 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 2: is that playoff contract I talk to you about is 567 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 2: not five years away. It's two years away. 568 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, like you heard when I 569 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,479 Speaker 1: was talking with Klatt on the show over Christmas Break, 570 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: next year's playoff, while you have a twelve team format 571 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: agreed upon, hasn't even been signed off on. From a 572 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: network perspective, we don't even know which networks are going 573 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,239 Speaker 1: to carry the games. For all I know we're going 574 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: to carry a semi final game on our YouTube channel. 575 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: No one's figured it out yet, so there's immediate pressure, 576 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: and then two years down the road there's nothing at all. 577 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: There's not even a playoff period that's agreed upon from 578 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six and beyond. And that's because a lot 579 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 1: of people want answers. Basically, people want to know what's 580 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: college football going to be because this isn't a one 581 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: year thing. You don't just sign it like a lease agreement. 582 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: When people are signing off on things of this magnitude. 583 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 1: It's a five year d it's a seven year deal, 584 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: it's a ten year deal. And no one signing nine 585 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: or ten figure contracts without knowing what's in the contract. 586 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: It's not the craziest concept in the world. It's just 587 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: that the numbers has gotten big enough and the timeline's 588 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: gotten crunched enough to where action is going to be imminent. 589 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: I think everything's on the table. Like I said, I 590 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: think collective bargaining is on the table. I am not 591 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: the one who's qualified, nor would I even try to 592 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: get into the specifics of. 593 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 2: What and of when and of hoopst. 594 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 1: But I think there are a lot of ideas, and 595 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: unlike years past, there is a motivation. There's the necessary 596 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: motivation in the room to get things done now. The 597 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: other person that I want to address is anyone watching 598 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: the show or listening to the show right now who's 599 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: like me. You're a traditionalist, you like the way things 600 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: were just fine. You're kind of sort of turned off 601 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: with the direction the sport has gone. I am going 602 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: to suggest to you, go Wilson Phillips mode here, hold 603 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: on for one more day, or maybe one or two 604 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 1: more years. 605 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 2: It's like the lost lyrics of that song. 606 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: The perception you have right now is college football has 607 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: started to go down the slope, and once you get 608 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: on a slippery slope, the nature of it is you 609 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: never gain your footing again. What I actually think we 610 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: may do is we may be right here, so we 611 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: may have a little further to go down, but I 612 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: think eventually there'll be a valley here. And I think 613 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: when we get to whatever version of college football we're 614 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: gonna get to, in a sense the final version, that 615 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: the finished version of college football, I actually think you're 616 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: gonna like it a lot more than you believe you will. 617 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm talking to myself as well. This isn't just blind guesswork. 618 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: Some of the people in the room, some of the 619 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: ideas in the room, for example, getting the NFL in 620 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: the room, not to mirror the NFL necessarily, but getting 621 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: the NFL in the room so that you can have 622 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: proper cooperation. And also you can and when the battles 623 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 1: that you need to in a court of law, which 624 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: is where this will be decided. 625 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 2: I think that that's gonna. 626 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: Yield a lot more positive result than you may first 627 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: think it would when you hear NFL alignment and courtroom 628 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: with college football. 629 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 2: So this is gonna be a theme on this show. 630 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: I assume we're going to talk about it a lot 631 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: over the spring and summer months. I don't think you're 632 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: gonna have to wait long. You're gonna see action on 633 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: this front. You're gonna see breaking news, you're gonna see proposals, 634 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: You're gonna hear a lot of voices you may not 635 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 1: normally hear at the college football table. And I would 636 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: just say, give it a chance, treat it like peace, 637 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: give it a chance. We'll see how things work out. 638 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: I have more confidence now than I have in a 639 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: long time. That's what I'm trying to tell you. Well, 640 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: bookmark that I'm not done talking about it. We'll just 641 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: book mark it for now. Let's see what do we 642 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: want to talk about next. First thing I would like 643 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: for you to do, humbly is I would like to 644 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,719 Speaker 1: ask you to subscribe to the channel, because about fifty 645 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: one percent of our audience has subscribed, and I think 646 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: we can do a lot better than that. The second 647 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: thing I'm gonna tell you to do is, as I said, 648 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: we're flying to Houston tomorrow and we'll be there all weekend. 649 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: I gotta hang with Canal all weekend. The company has 650 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: made that my job. That the company has made it 651 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: my job to put an end to one hundred thousand 652 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: years of people being turned off by Danny Cannell. 653 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 2: That is my task, and I'm willing to accept it 654 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 2: because a. 655 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: Company man, I am, and I am going to document 656 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: as much of our trip as I can on Instagram 657 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: and Twitter at Late Kick Josh, So just make sure 658 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: you're following a lot of good behind the scenes content 659 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: on these trips. As those of you who follow me 660 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: can attest to. From this season, LSU's making some big moves. 661 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 1: So Brian Kelly goes all through bowl season and everyone's 662 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,479 Speaker 1: up in arms. Is he gonna make a move. We 663 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: can't accept this at LSU. Our defense is trash. And 664 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: then the bowl game ends and Brian Kelly goes flush. 665 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 2: And everyone's gone. 666 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 1: Matt House, the defensive coordinator gone, the defensive line coach, 667 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: the corners coach, the safety's got, they're all gone. They're 668 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: all gone. So he's importing an entirely new defensive staff. Hey, 669 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: we never flinched on the show. I know I didn't 670 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: answer your dms, but I saw them. We had hundreds 671 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: and hundreds of LSU fans saying, hey, remember in the 672 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: season you got asked about this and you said, point blank, yep, 673 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 1: he'll make changes. I never flinched. I never flinched. We 674 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:31,800 Speaker 1: had it on pretty good authority. 675 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 2: This was coming. We just needed to wait. Well, now 676 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:35,280 Speaker 2: we wait no longer. 677 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: Why did this need to happen? LSU was terrible defensively 678 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 1: this year. That's why forty seven point three points per game. 679 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 1: That's what they gave up in their three losses, and 680 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: they still had the Heisman Trophy winner. Like, they were 681 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: still one of the best teams in the country even 682 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: with how poor they were defensively. 683 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 2: They gave up one hundred and eight Let's see, this. 684 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: Is one of those moments of Jesse where I wrote 685 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: down a stat and I can't even remember what the 686 00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: one O eight means. 687 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 2: Oh oh, I'll tell you what it is. They were 688 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighth in the country in yards per 689 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 2: game allowed. I knew i'd figure that out eventually, So 690 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 2: Brian Kelly rightly looked at that and said, well, we're LSU. 691 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 2: That's not good enough. Where are they going to go? 692 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: Blake Baker's Name's been thrown out there. That's the defensive 693 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: coordinator at Missouri. As of airtime, nothing's been finalized there. 694 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,399 Speaker 1: I saw Bo Davis's name at Texas floated out there, 695 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 1: a few different names. As is usually the case, this 696 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: is well down the road by the time this makes 697 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: it public, by the time we're talking about it, the 698 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: wheels have been turning for weeks and weeks and weeks. 699 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 1: I can confirm for you confidently that's been happening here. 700 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 1: I don't know who they're going to hire you yet. 701 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 1: Blake Baker's a good start, that's a good guess, but 702 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: we'll see. So as of now, nothing's finalized. But it's 703 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: about players, okay. So any coach who walks in and 704 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: takes that role is going to look around and say, 705 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: we got to get better players here. We got to 706 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 1: do better in recruiting. We talked about this on National 707 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: Signing Day. Cooper Protagna and I Slash Patanya and I 708 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 1: we sat there in Studio B and we looked and said, 709 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: pretty good recruiting class. Where the big body's at. They 710 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: don't have enough of them. They don't have enough difference 711 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 1: makers there, and they need to greatly upgrade. That's going 712 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 1: to be a process. You're not just bringing in a 713 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: guy to put on a headset, snap his fingers, and 714 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: all of a sudden be fifty points better on the 715 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 1: rankings list than you are right now. But what they 716 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,799 Speaker 1: were this year can't not happen again. I mean, they 717 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: quite literally screwed themselves out of an opportunity to win 718 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 1: a national title. You get that no one will remember 719 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 1: LSU circa twenty twenty three as a championship contender because 720 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 1: they were that bad defensively, But say this out loud. Okay, 721 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: think about the history of LSU football. Think about what 722 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: you know them for. You you know them for defense, 723 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: you know them for great cornerback play, you know them 724 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: for their entire state producing difference makers enough to where 725 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: they could have domin a D lines and then other 726 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: teams could have D lines built from kids from Louisiana 727 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:07,919 Speaker 1: and so all of a sudden, you have a year 728 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,400 Speaker 1: where you get the Heisman Trophy winner again at quarterback, 729 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 1: and it's defense. It's the secondary that keeps you from 730 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,360 Speaker 1: doing anything of note that can't happen, Brian Kelly or 731 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: anyone else that can't happen. So you know, I always 732 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: tell you about Keystone programs. Ls u's one of them, 733 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: got a bunch of them in the SEC. Ls u's 734 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: one of them. So is as much as you might 735 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: look at him right now and say a look at LSU, 736 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: where's your defensive staff, you don't have one. I don't 737 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: think your ad shares that sentiment. Your AD probably knows 738 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 1: if LSU comes calling, unless we're literally Alabama or we're Georgia, 739 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: you know, unless we are one of the top one 740 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: or two percent, they could probably take any one of 741 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 1: our guys they want. So let's just keep our mouth 742 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: shutting and hope Brian Kelly looks in another direction. That's 743 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 1: the attitude and athletic departments. Right now, they're watching the 744 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: shit in Colliersville, Tennessee, Denver, Colorado, Shawnee, Oklahoma. 745 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 2: Thank you guys so much. I watched Bowl season. Don't 746 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 2: think I wasn't watching Bowl season. 747 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: I just needed to get to tonight, get a breath 748 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 1: of fresh air really quick before we dive back in 749 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 1: and go to Houston tomorrow. I have some takeaways I 750 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: want to talk to you about. I watched the Cotton 751 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 1: Bowl disaster Missouri not from Missouri. They won, they beat 752 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: Ohio State, but that was a red light alert. That 753 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: was the moment where I think a lot of Buckeye 754 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 1: fans looked and said, it's probably not gonna be. 755 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,720 Speaker 2: It's not gonna be just Devin Brown. 756 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,880 Speaker 1: It's even though I mean Ohio State was on a 757 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 1: third string guy, so it's I think a lot of 758 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: people looked and said, we need, we need much bigger 759 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: movement here than apparently Brian Day had previously thought about. 760 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 2: Now. 761 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 1: I think Ryan Day and his staff, while they didn't 762 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: plan on getting virtually shut out, I think they looked 763 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: and said, there's no way we can decipher anything from tonight. 764 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 1: And I couldn't, so I assume they couldn't as well. 765 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: Big win for Eli Drinkwitz. You know, I don't think 766 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,280 Speaker 1: history will look back and remember, oh, this doesn't mean anything. 767 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 2: Ohio State was without a bunch of guys. Forget that. 768 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: Eli Drinkwitz, as we told you all year, has one 769 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: of the top twenty to twenty five staffs in college football. 770 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 1: Not just him, his staff very very underrated and they've 771 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: locked him up. And now Missouri's doing stuff in the 772 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: transfer portal as well. So that's the first thing that 773 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: was a red light in terms of the future for 774 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,959 Speaker 1: Ohio State. But also I watched Ole Miss and Penn 775 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: State in the Peach Bowl, and that just further inflated 776 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four to me. I mean, Old miss you 777 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: talk about inflation of expectation. Eleven wins and then they 778 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,360 Speaker 1: go grab everyone they want to out of the portal. 779 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,959 Speaker 1: They won ten games this year in the regular season, 780 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: they won eleven with the bowl game. Those people are 781 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,919 Speaker 1: gonna set ten wins as the floor of their expectation level. 782 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: Next year, Jackson Dart's coming back, wide receiver room will 783 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: be filthy like their wide receiver room could be what 784 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: Washington's was this year. I want you to know I'm 785 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 1: not overinflating that expectation. They got some nasty, nasty combinations 786 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: of players they can put on the field at wide receiver. 787 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: So what's a reasonable expectation level. Because I think some 788 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: of you were looking at this and saying, uh, oh 789 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 1: Ole Miss is gonna be legit, And then I think 790 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: there's some others of you, pretty much anyone outside of Oxford. 791 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: You're gonna look at it and say, uh huh, fools 792 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,720 Speaker 1: gold Nope, you're not gonna portal in an entire team. 793 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,280 Speaker 1: Those guys at the first sign of trouble, they'll bail. 794 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:36,839 Speaker 2: Well. 795 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: I don't have an opinion yet because we're still so 796 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: early into this, this whole experiment of an era that 797 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 1: I think we're still seeing a lot of firsts, Like 798 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:51,479 Speaker 1: this isn't Colorado level of transportation. No, there's no way 799 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 1: that's the proper phrasing. But but this isn't like Colorado. 800 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,360 Speaker 1: He's not literally bringing an entire team in via the portal, 801 00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: but he is bringing a lot of difference makers, and 802 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 1: he being lane kiffing there the quarterback movement and the 803 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,320 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that got elevated to starting positions in bowl games. 804 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: Niko Iamaliava at Tennessee. Really good day. They blanked Iowa 805 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: thirty five nothing. He went twelve of nineteen through the air, 806 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: but he had three rushing touchdowns as well. And it 807 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 1: was funny because when you saw the headline that Joe 808 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: Milton was opting out of the bowl game, Tennessee fans said, yeah, 809 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: I bet he is. The rest of the country said, 810 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 1: uh oh, Tennessee's got to start a true freshman. Tennessee 811 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: fans said, yeah, no, no, no, no, we're choosing to start 812 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: the true freshman. Just believe any headline you want to. 813 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 1: We're choosing to start the true freshman. They went in 814 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,439 Speaker 1: heavy on him, and I think you saw a little 815 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,360 Speaker 1: glimpse of why, and. 816 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,439 Speaker 2: Here's your guy. He's your guy. Next year. 817 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: Jackson Arnold got to start for Old Oklahoma because Dylan 818 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: Gabriel hit the portal door. He had three picks. It 819 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 1: was a mixed bag. But he threw for three sixty one, 820 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 1: twenty six and forty five. I mean they threw it 821 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: against Arizona. They've through it a lot, so that's going 822 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 1: to be another exciting name. Do you understand as of 823 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 1: now he is an SEC quarterback. Get used to it, 824 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 1: and I don't think people have had it sync in yet. 825 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 1: Ou Texas SEC next year slash This year, Miller Moss 826 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 1: went off for USC against Louisville. He was Jesse with 827 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: twenty three thirty three. Couldn't read my own handwriting three 828 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: seventy two. He had six passing touchdowns. Enough to where 829 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 1: Will Howard's in the portal? Everyone's got him crystal Ball 830 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 1: to USC. Will Howard settles in one night in his 831 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 1: hotel room and says, who's Miller Moss? 832 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 2: WHOA, Hello, Ohio State? Can I come visit? That's done? 833 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 1: I mean Lincoln Riley himself said yeah, I think Miller 834 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:44,839 Speaker 1: MOS's probably scared off anyone who was thinking about coming here. 835 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,880 Speaker 1: In his postgame press conference, he knew. And if you 836 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: got Miller MOS's playing that way, you don't need a 837 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: portal quarterback. Garrett Nusmyer at LSU seems young, but he's not. 838 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: He's been around a while. He elevates and it's his 839 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,760 Speaker 1: team now. Thirty one to forty five, nearly four hundred 840 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 1: yards through the air, three touchdowns. 841 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 2: That was against Wisconsin in. 842 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:10,240 Speaker 1: The relya Quest Bowl. What's your favorite relya Quest Bowl moment? 843 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: By the way, I'll take responses in the live chat 844 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 1: in the meantime. That's four for four on promising young 845 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacks who are going to be playing for what figure 846 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: to be contending teams next year. I also watched Virginia 847 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,479 Speaker 1: Tech in Tulane. I watched all the bowl games Virginia Tech. 848 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna whisper this. I think Virginia Tech has something 849 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: they were three and eight two years ago. This wrapped 850 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: up a seven and six season. They went from one 851 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 1: hundred and thirteenth to twenty third in the country in 852 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 1: rush yards per game. Brent pry dare I say has 853 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: found something in Blacksburg? 854 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:50,800 Speaker 2: I'm talking quiet. 855 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 1: I don't want the rest of the country to hear 856 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 1: it yet. I want this to just be our little 857 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 1: secret for a little while. But Virginia Tech, could this be? 858 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 1: This be the year where we finally make it to 859 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: a game at Lane Stadium? Too soon to tell, but 860 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: I feel it. I feel a little pulse out of Blacksburg, 861 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 1: Virginia that I hadn't felt. 862 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 2: In a little while. 863 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: And how could I ever cap Bowl season? We're not 864 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,479 Speaker 1: talking about the pop Tart Bowl. The Pop Tart Bowl 865 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: was one of the most amazing spectacles that this country 866 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: has ever seen in the modern era. This has to 867 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,800 Speaker 1: be a college football playoff game in the near future. 868 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 1: You remember The Office Season one, very forgettable, looks nothing 869 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: like the other season Seinfeld Season one unrecognizable. The Pop 870 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 1: Tart Bowl Season one nailed it. Look at the pop 871 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: Tart The pop Tart takes his own life. 872 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,359 Speaker 2: At the end of the game, he gives himself up. 873 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 2: He sacrifices himself so that an edible version of himself 874 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 2: can be spit out the bottom and the players eat him. 875 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: Oh when a football game happened, like congrats to Kansas State, 876 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: but the Pop Tart Bowl it was. It was like 877 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: if you mix a Coldplay concert with a Monster Truck 878 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 1: rally with breakfast with a football game, throw it all 879 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,919 Speaker 1: on a blender, pour it out. That was the Pop 880 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 1: Tart Bowl. Just an unbelievable spectacle. So whatever we have 881 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 1: to do to be aligned with the Pop Tart Bowl, 882 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: we are at your service. 883 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 2: Just uniquely college football.

And it was a really good 887 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:31,919 Speaker 2: game too. 888 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: Right now, you can go to FanDuel and you can 889 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 1: look at the Michigan Washington game, and you know that 890 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,800 Speaker 1: I talked about the game earlier and I made my prediction, 891 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 1: for whatever that's worth, But I made a bet earlier 892 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: on fandel I'm gonna give it to you right now.

I need 947 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:34,479 Speaker 1: to take a sip out of the chalice for this one, 948 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: and also for those of you listening on podcasts. I 949 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:46,839 Speaker 1: found some coconut chapstick and this stuff is delicious. I'm 950 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 1: not totally sure I'm supposed to be tasting it, but 951 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 1: it is delicious, So no chap lips here tonight. I 952 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: got hit up with the following radical take. It goes 953 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: a little something like this quote. I've always believed the 954 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: SEC is over, but I think Texas and OU will 955 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:08,799 Speaker 1: prove it next year. Fascinating because the best I can tell, 956 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,960 Speaker 1: Oklahoma just fell to Arizona. I saw Texas fall to Washington. 957 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,399 Speaker 1: But it's the SEC. They're gonna come in and run 958 00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 1: circles around. I've been on both sides of this argument. 959 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 2: Okay. 960 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 1: I've had people say the SEC is gonna swallow ou 961 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 1: in Texas, and I said, no, it's not. But then 962 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: I've also got folks say, at Texas and Oklahoma about to 963 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:30,280 Speaker 1: show the SEC how real ball is played. They're gonna 964 00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 1: struggle and they're gonna have some success, and in the end, 965 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna fit in quite nicely in the conference. 966 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be a little bit of a 967 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 2: wake up call the first year. 968 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: I think that you're gonna find out you don't have 969 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 1: as many all due respect here, all due respect, you 970 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,279 Speaker 1: don't have as many three star laden rosters to get 971 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,319 Speaker 1: right against in this conference as you did in the 972 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:55,240 Speaker 1: Big Twelve. But at the same time, if you're Auburn, 973 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 1: a week that would have seen you go to Kentucky 974 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 1: or maybe go to South Carolina, go to Vanderbilt, and 975 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,160 Speaker 1: those three things are not all equal. But you get 976 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. All of a sudden you're going to Norman, 977 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 1: Oklahoma or Austin, Texas. That's a different ballgame as well. 978 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 2: I am out. I'm always asked this. 979 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,400 Speaker 1: I always ask this whenever someone tells me anything or 980 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 1: any one is overrated, I ask you what are they rated? 981 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 2: And you say, huhoo, well, you. 982 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:26,120 Speaker 1: Tell me they're over rated. I'm asking you, first and foremost, 983 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 1: what are they rated? And as far as I can tell, 984 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 1: the SEC has been rated the number one conference in 985 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 1: college football. Okay, so you must be telling me they're 986 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,800 Speaker 1: not the number one in conference, number one conference college football. 987 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 1: Otherwise they wouldn't be overrated. They'll be properly rated. So 988 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 1: if they're not, who is the Big twelve? You can't 989 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 1: be a serious person and tell me that the ACC, 990 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 1: the PAC twelve, No, no, the Big ten would be 991 00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 1: the only one that's comparable. It's not comparable. There's been 992 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,839 Speaker 1: no one that compares over any given five or ten 993 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,439 Speaker 1: year pier to the SEC. I don't think think any 994 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,880 Speaker 1: serious person is suggesting otherwise. So if you want to 995 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: tell me you get tired of hearing folks chant SEC cool, 996 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:12,520 Speaker 1: I'm with you. If you want to point out individual 997 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 1: results like the Rose Bowl, where folks who thought it 998 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 1: was a tie game in their head went with Alabama calls. 999 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:22,799 Speaker 1: They thought somehow SEC would mean more. Okay, sometimes that's 1000 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: flawed logic. 1001 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,879 Speaker 2: But if you want to tell me the conference has 1002 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 2: been overrated for a long time. They've racked up more 1003 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 2: national championships in five year periods than some of these 1004 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 2: conferences have in five decades. It's not close. 1005 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:39,720 Speaker 1: Now, I don't ever say that I'm the one against 1006 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,360 Speaker 1: that phrase, and it's not even close. 1007 00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 2: But in this particular vein, it's not close. Do you 1008 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 2: want to know how I'm the one thinking more logically? 1009 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 2: We'll put this up as an individual video. 1010 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: Colin will cut this after the show, and we'll upload 1011 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 1: it sometime in the next few days, and I'll look 1012 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 1: in the comment section and someone will call this SEC 1013 00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 1: homersm Mind you, they won't present a valid rebuttal. They'll 1014 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 1: just call it SEC homrism. Why because the truth is 1015 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,280 Speaker 1: homerism if it rubs you the wrong way. 1016 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 2: Or even worse, it's clickbait. 1017 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 1: If it rubs you the wrong way, clickbait, gross nasty 1018 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 1: business out here, this clickbaiting. Next up, Timothy hit us 1019 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: up and said special teams should just be removed from 1020 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 1: the game. Stop letting games be decided by glorified soccer 1021 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 1: players as kickers and punters. Let real football players decide 1022 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 1: the game with offense and defense. Now this is jarring 1023 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:42,320 Speaker 1: because you and I have only known football as involving 1024 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,319 Speaker 1: special teams. You got to kickoff, you've got punch, you've 1025 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: got extra points, you've got field goals, and so it's 1026 00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 1: hard to imagine football without it. 1027 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:52,359 Speaker 2: Here's how I suggest you do it. 1028 00:52:54,040 --> 00:53:00,080 Speaker 1: Imagine if the game didn't exist and you invented it today. 1029 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 2: Would you invent it with all of those. 1030 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 1: Mechanisms, all those kicking apparati, which is the plural of 1031 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: apparatus attached to the sport. I'm not sure you would. 1032 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 1: Now that doesn't always mean that's grounds for removal. I 1033 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: mean there are a lot of things that exist right 1034 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: now that if given another opportunity, we wouldn't build. But 1035 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 1: what we kind of tolerate is punting and kicking. Are 1036 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: those two of those things? Well, I will tell you this, Timothy, 1037 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 1: there are coaches out there who share your sentiment. There 1038 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 1: are coaches out there. I mean, most head coaches know 1039 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,799 Speaker 1: very little about kicking. If they're being real with you, 1040 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 1: they know very little about it, and it aggravates them 1041 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:41,440 Speaker 1: because they know the rest of the game. They understand blocking, 1042 00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,240 Speaker 1: they understand fundamentals of tackling, they understand coverages, they understand 1043 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: route concepts. But they have absolutely no clue, or most 1044 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 1: of them have very little clue why a ball went 1045 00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:56,640 Speaker 1: wide left. They don't understand that if your plant foot 1046 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: was overextended and therefore you have a little lean in 1047 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 1: your upper body, it causes a jerk reaction on your 1048 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,319 Speaker 1: kicking leg, and therefore you hit maybe instead of the 1049 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,839 Speaker 1: square of the football, you hit a little bit over 1050 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: to the right eighth of the football, and therefore it 1051 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,399 Speaker 1: curves a little bit. I mean, a lot of guys 1052 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:16,399 Speaker 1: aren't thinking like that because they don't need to think 1053 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: like that, because they don't think it's. 1054 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 2: An important enough part of the game. 1055 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 1: They just know, Hey, if your percentage is high enough, 1056 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,920 Speaker 1: you're my kicker, and if it's not, you're out of here. Well, 1057 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: a lot of them would just soon do away with it. 1058 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 1: I don't think all of them would. I'm not sure 1059 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: I would get a consensus on that, but I think 1060 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 1: most football coaches have found themselves driving home more than 1061 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,799 Speaker 1: a time or two saying I cannot believe that we 1062 00:54:35,880 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 1: work as many hours as we do through the spring 1063 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,359 Speaker 1: and summer and fall, only to have this game come 1064 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 1: down to a dude who is one hundred and fifty 1065 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:44,839 Speaker 1: five pounds soaking wet, could not beat his way out 1066 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:46,840 Speaker 1: of a wet paper bag, and he couldn't kick a 1067 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:50,440 Speaker 1: football throw an upside down. H I cannot believe that 1068 00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 1: this is happening to me, but it happens. But it happens, 1069 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:59,720 Speaker 1: and so maybe in the future it does sort of happen. 1070 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,440 Speaker 1: I'm not sure you're ever removing kicking from the game. 1071 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 1: I do think there's a world where the kickoff. 1072 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 2: And the punt. 1073 00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:09,399 Speaker 1: I do think, maybe not the punt, but I think 1074 00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,759 Speaker 1: there's a world where the kickoff is gone in the 1075 00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: near future. They've already kind of eliminated it anyway with 1076 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 1: what the fair catch does on kickoffs, so we'll see. 1077 00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 1: I don't think that's I think it's radical as a 1078 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 1: proposal only because it's hard to picture. But I do 1079 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: get where you're coming from there. I think you have 1080 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 1: a good heart, Timothy when you're saying it, although you 1081 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:34,319 Speaker 1: did speak very disparagingly against kickers and punters and they 1082 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: do have souls just as well as anyone else does. 1083 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:45,240 Speaker 2: Next up from Miami, Florida comes the following. There still 1084 00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 2: hasn't been a team so complete and dominant as the 1085 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:52,840 Speaker 2: two thousand and one Miami Hurricanes. This is a proposal 1086 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 2: I get a number of times per year. Do you 1087 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:58,799 Speaker 2: want to debate, oh one Miami versus anyone else? You 1088 00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:04,960 Speaker 2: pick your team Nebraska twenty nineteen LSU. Well, I've never 1089 00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:06,799 Speaker 2: engaged in it because it's unprovable. 1090 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: It's an unwinnable argument because we can't ever see the 1091 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,319 Speaker 1: teams play. I will tell you this though, when I 1092 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,879 Speaker 1: was going back and researching one Miami today. Yeah, they 1093 00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,839 Speaker 1: had seventeen first rounders on that team. Yeah they had 1094 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:22,880 Speaker 1: thirty eight overall guys drafted on that team. Yeah they 1095 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 1: won by nearly thirty three points per game on average. 1096 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,799 Speaker 1: And that's with close games against BC and VA Tech 1097 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 1: that year. They still won by nearly thirty three points 1098 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 1: per game on average. But I think one of the 1099 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 1: most fascinating statistics is there was a back to back 1100 00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 1: portion of their schedule where Miami played two top fifteen 1101 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: teams in consecutive weeks, and they beat them by a 1102 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:47,360 Speaker 1: combined score of one hundred and twenty four to seven. 1103 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 1: Stats and Info ran the math. It checks out that 1104 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:53,880 Speaker 1: is a Sarah McLaughlin special. That is painting the walls 1105 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 1: with their blood. Miami did that many many times that year. 1106 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 1: The laundry list of players is insane. They beat Nebraska 1107 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 1: in the Rose Bowl, they won the National Championship, they 1108 00:57:03,880 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 1: perfect record. The teams that I think would be brought 1109 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,320 Speaker 1: up the most are either the mid nineties Nebraska teams 1110 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: or if you wanted to go from one to on, 1111 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,960 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen LSU and twenty twenty Alabama statistically are the 1112 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 1: most dominant teams that have existed in our era. 1113 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 2: It's an unfair argument. 1114 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 1: I mean, if dude, if I put if I put 1115 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 1: teams on the field that have twenty years advantage on 1116 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 1: you in terms of just knowing how the game evolved 1117 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:36,439 Speaker 1: since then, strength and conditioning, nutrition, speed training, like all 1118 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 1: that stuff makes it an unfair fight. And at the 1119 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 1: same time, even if I took nineteen LSU or twenty 1120 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 1: Baman dropped them into one, I can't do a straight 1121 00:57:46,320 --> 00:57:47,000 Speaker 1: up comparison. 1122 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 2: So here's what I'll say. 1123 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 1: In their era, that's the most dominant team that there 1124 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 1: certainly has not been a roster that looked like that 1125 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: in that era. And then you fast forward and I 1126 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 1: think Joe Burrows twenty nineteen LSU squad and that twenty 1127 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: twenty Steve sar o kejun offense at Alabama was pretty 1128 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 1: terrifying as well. 1129 00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 2: And that's that. We are headed to Houston tomorrow. 1130 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 1: I will have you something Sunday now, a fair warning, 1131 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 1: fair warning. Our schedule is crazy in Houston this week, 1132 00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 1: so it may be that the show pops up on 1133 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 1: the channel a little bit earlier than its normal start 1134 00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: time on Sunday.
