This is the place. Welcome 0:00:08.280 --> 0:00:11.200 to the program. We made it to a Friday. Oh, 0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:14.960 it's a special meat Friday.

Smoked turkey, sausage stuffing, 0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:29.600 smoke green bean casserole, homemade cranberry sauce, smoked blueberry pie. No, no, no, no, no, 0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:36.800 no no. Who's got it better than us? No? Absolutely, absolutely, 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:39.040 come on in, stay a while, a lot of topics 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:42.400 to dive into. Our buddy Brady Quinn will join us 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.600 on loan from Fox Sports while ask him, is Melttucker 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:49.479 worth almost ten million dollars a year to Michigan State? 0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:53.720 And if I'm him, I signed that contract before Saturday 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:57.960 where you're almost a twenty point underdog against the Ohio State. 0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:01.240 But what if they win? Does he then ask for 0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:04.920 more money? Radio'll join us coming up Jeff Van Gundy. 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.040 We'll talk about the highs and lows of the Lakers, 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:11.920 and we'll also check in with our good buddy Darius Rucker, 0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:15.160 three time Grammy winner. He'll join us a little bit 0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:19.080 later on phone calls are welcome, emails, tweets all the above. 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:22.080 Say good morning to our radio lineup, the great folks 0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:26.360 at Fox Sports Radio and iHeartRadio, numbering nearly four hundred 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:30.120 cities around America. Also, we're live on Peacock. Download the 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:34.039 app watch for free all three hours, Play of the day, 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:36.880 poll question, stat of the day, all to that forthcoming. 0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:39.839 Make sure you go to dan Patrick dot com all 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:43.160 the merchandise you need for your holiday shopping. We got 0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:46.680 T shirts, calendars, we got a DP show puzzle, we 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.480 got Penny's Bang Biscuits, we got Todd's Limerick greeting cards, 0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:54.280 and a whole lot more, all available dan Patrick dot com. 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:59.080 Harden to decipher Mac Jones's numbers over the last two games, 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.960 because as the Patriots rookie has been really accurate nineteen 0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.200 to twenty three in the blowout win against the Browns, 0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:07.920 twenty two to twenty six, and a shutout over the 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:11.280 Falcons last night. He threw for one ninety eight against 0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:14.280 Cleveland in two oh seven against Atlanta. But this is 0:02:14.320 --> 0:02:18.240 what Bill Belichick wants. He seems perfectly happy to have 0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:22.160 a conservative passing attack, really good running gang and a 0:02:22.240 --> 0:02:25.400 stout defense. And last night that d was the star 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:28.520 shutting out Matt Ryan and the Falcons. Jones had one 0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:30.880 pick when he tried to push the ball downfield, tried 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:33.560 to force it in there, and really that's the knock 0:02:33.600 --> 0:02:36.280 on him. The big knock was his arm strength coming 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:39.040 out of Alabama. But the Patriots are going to need 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.720 him to throw the ball deep more often later in 0:02:41.760 --> 0:02:44.480 the season. But they're winning. They're seven and four, and 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:47.080 they're in a really good position for a playoff spot 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.080 and if they get there. We've seen Bill Belichick with 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:54.920 this style win a Super Bowl. But if that's the 0:02:54.960 --> 0:02:58.919 first time you watch Mac Jones, you probably went, what's 0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:03.320 the big deal here? Not much going on, But this 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:07.040 is what Bill Belichick wants. Not much going on, move 0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:12.960 the chains, even his touchdown pass routine, simple blown coverage 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:16.480 by the Falcons. But you're watching him and he's getting 0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.880 praised because he is taking care of the football. This 0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:22.280 used to be the role of a quarterback. A lot 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:25.040 of quarterbacks back in the sixties and seventies, certainly in 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:30.120 the seventies I've mentioned Bart Starr and Bob Greasy weren't 0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.880 prolific passers. They managed a game. They went into the 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:37.600 Hall of fame because they managed games, and sometimes this 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.120 is what you have. I maintain Alex Smith did that 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.559 for most of his career, certainly in Kansas City. You maintain, 0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:46.400 you manage a game. And Mac Jones is doing that. 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:52.720 Justin Fields has more talent. Okay, is he going to 0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:55.640 be better than Mac Jones? He's not in a better situation. 0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:57.640 And that's what a lot of this comes down to. 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.200 If I put mac Jones and Jackson and Trevor Lawrence 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:05.240 in New England, are we having a different conversation. Yeah. 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:08.760 If I put Mac Jones with the Jets, Zack Wilson 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.960 with the Patriots, are we having a different conversation, Yeah, 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:15.600 we are. But a lot of this has to do 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:19.000 with if you're successful early. It has to do with 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:23.680 your situation. Dak Prescott went to the Cowboys. They went 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:26.880 all in on their offense. I don't hear anybody saying, 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:33.880 you know, if Dak played for Jacksonville exactly, we'd be Okay. 0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:40.919 Patrick Mahomes went in and he took over a playoff team. 0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:44.760 He's got a Hall of Fame coach, He's got probably 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.920 a couple of Hall of Fame players there the skilled position, 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:52.640 But nobody talks about that if Patrick Mahomes was in Jacksonville, 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:57.480 we go and that guy pretty incredible athletic, crazy throws, 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.280 they wouldn't be winning any more than what they aren't. 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:05.200 Probably it's being in the right place, right time, right system. 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:07.760 That's where you look at success. There are a lot 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.760 of quarterbacks who had a lot of town, but they 0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:14.760 got buried because they went to bad situations. That's the 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.640 reason why you got the opportunity to draft the quarterback 0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:22.719 because you were a bad team, bad franchise. Interchangeable coaches, 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:26.719 offensive coordinators change, you don't invest in the offensive wine, 0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:30.600 you don't have weapons. I mean, look, Tom Brady goes 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:32.960 to New England. He takes over a team that's a 0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.760 playoff team. He takes over for Drew Bledsoe wins his 0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:38.919 first Super Bowl, got the greatest coach of all time. 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:44.159 Interchangeable parts. Two things stayed the same, quarterback and the coach. 0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:47.600 So so much of this is who do you have 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:50.960 as your coach, what's the system, what's the offensive philosophy. 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:54.240 I don't know. If Justin Fields is better than Mac Jones. 0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.479 If they did something novel like block for him, then 0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:01.480 maybe we'd be able to find that is mac Jones 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:05.040 the best quarterback right now? Yes? But I said, if 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:08.680 I said they were stocks, you're gonna buy a stock? 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:14.160 Are you buying mac Jones, Trevor Lawrence, Ac Wilson, justin Fields, 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:18.840 Trey Lance? Because those stock prices are probably going to 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:22.040 be different. But are you going to invest in mac 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.680 Jones and say he's going to be a great quarterback? 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:30.240 Good quarterback, serviceable quarterback? Is Trevor Lawrence going to be 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:31.960 a hall Is somebody going to be a Hall of 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:35.520 Famer out of this group? Right? Trevor Lawrence is supposed 0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:38.520 to be a Hall of Famer. He's a generational quarterback. 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.680 He's the next version of Andrew Luck. Here is Trey Lance. 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:48.479 What if the Niners had taken mac Jones? Would mac 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:53.880 Jones be even playing? What if the Saints had drafted 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:57.920 Patrick Mahomes when they were looking to draft Patrick Mahomes 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:03.680 and took Marshawn Moore, he would have been sitting behind 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:07.400 Drew Brees for far longer than he did with Alex Smith. 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:12.360 Maybe they move on a year early. So it's crazy 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:14.760 when we look at this and go that quarterback, Well, 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:17.920 there's a whole lot more than that quarterback Matt Jones 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:20.960 didn't win the game last night, and he really shouldn't 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:26.000 be a topic today. It should be The Falcons are terrible, embarrassing, 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:29.800 and you start to wonder if I'm Matt Ryan Dow 0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:33.360 I want to continue to play. He's running for his 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:40.120 life and he can't run. Patriots got a good philosophy here, 0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:44.920 but it's a philosophy we've seen. Run the football, make 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:49.680 some good plays, throw the ball, play defense, try not 0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:54.760 to make mistakes. Wow, real shocker there, what the Patriots 0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.520 are trying to do? This is what they do. Now. 0:07:57.560 --> 0:08:00.280 You did have a couple of seasons where he had 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:03.680 Brady and Randy Moss and Belichick smart enough to understand, 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.520 let's take advantage of this, and they did. But his 0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:11.880 blueprint is run the ball, don't make mistake, run the ball, 0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:15.800 don't make mistakes, like good defense, and then get to 0:08:15.840 --> 0:08:19.560 the postseason. That's it. Yeah, Paul, I think what's most 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:22.120 fascinating with that the Patriots is guys they let go 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:24.800 and guys that come back, like Kyle van Noy might 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:26.600 be going to the Pro Bowl this year. If you 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:28.440 hadn't seen Kyle van Noy play in a couple of 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:30.800 years since he went down to Miami. You think, oh, 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:33.080 Kyle van Nois, he's a pro bowler. Yeah, you know 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:35.800 that kid, Kyle Dugger. They took out of Lenora Rhyn. 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:38.320 I think that's a Division two school. I thought they 0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:42.880 drafted Lenora Rhyn right when I saw it, and I go, oh, wait, 0:08:42.920 --> 0:08:47.600 they drafted somebody out of Lenora Rhyne and he's playing well. Yeah. 0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.520 And then you know Montre Stevens all these running backs 0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:53.360 that they never pay and they just churn out. Yes, 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:57.800 is it possible we are perpetually underrating mac Jones because 0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:00.199 he looks like a Doric. His name's Mac. He was 0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:02.760 a three star recruit that we said the same thing 0:09:02.760 --> 0:09:04.800 in Alabama. Oh, he's just taking advantage of all the 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.920 situation around him, and now we're saying it in New England. 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.679 Maybe he has this quality that is hard to appreciate 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:16.200 what he's doing. Okay, but we've been down this road 0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:19.840 with AJ McCarron before. Yeah, and it didn't work out. 0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:24.640 Greg McElroy didn't do anything. No. I thought that dan 0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.520 Orlomsky made a great point about mac Jones when he 0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:30.280 joined us a couple of days ago. He said, look, 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:34.120 this guy was against the number one defense in America 0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:37.760 every single practice. He's on the scout team, so these 0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:42.840 are real practices where Saban is probably saying, hey, let's go, 0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.640 let's shut down this offense. And mac Jones is there. 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:48.880 How could you? There's no better way to prepare for 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:51.160 going into the NFL if you're not going to be 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.880 a two year starter, three year starter. You go against 0:09:54.880 --> 0:10:00.080 that Alabama defense every single day. You can't get away 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.360 with things with them. And I think it really has 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:05.840 helped the transition here that I don't think he looks 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:08.599 at the game. Remember justin Fields his first game, and 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:11.120 game is a little slower than what I thought, And 0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:14.400 I'm like, oh, don't say that. Don't say that way 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.360 too early. Mac Jones could probably say that and get 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:20.040 away with it because he's going against that Alabama defense 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:23.960 every single day. Now, was the throw a bad throw? 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:29.160 Yeah it was. But that's where he'll know his limitations. 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:32.840 He'll learn his limitations with Belichick. But last night there 0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:37.280 was nothing really to see there other than Atlanta is embarrassing. 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.600 They are. I mean, now, there was part of me 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:45.680 that when it got to twenty five to three, could 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:50.320 somehow the Patriots make it twenty eight to three against Atlanta, 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:52.400 like I was hoping for. Just give me something to 0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:56.720 look forward to. And then the exciting part was you 0:10:56.800 --> 0:11:01.240 had every quarterback who played in the game through an interception. 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.720 I didn't know if it's happened before I asked mclovin. 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:09.080 I said, you know, can you check with our buddy 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.920 and see if you know we can find it? Four 0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:18.040 quarterbacks or stack guy mclub and four quarterbacks. So last 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:22.040 night Mac Jones, Matt Ryan, Josh Rosen, and Phelipe A. 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:25.880 Franks come on down, all through interceptions. You gotta love 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:29.599 the consistency of the Falcons quarterback system. Yeah. So, but 0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:32.280 our buddy John Tuvey, did he come up with the 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:37.160 information here? Yeah? And I think, okay, Paul, you have 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.960 me with this. So there's four times since two thousand 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:44.440 or four different players have thrown interceptions in the same game. Now, 0:11:44.640 --> 0:11:50.360 last night. In twenty seventeen, Carson Palmer Drew stan Sean 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:53.800 Mannon and Farrell Cooper wide receiver through picks. In two 0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:57.080 thousand and eight, McNabb cob DeShawn Jackson a wide receivers 0:11:57.080 --> 0:12:01.160 group picks. But then in two thousand McNabb m Randal Cunningham, 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.720 Troy Aikman all through pick so only once since two thousand, 0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:07.880 so it's a very rare. I was surprised, and there's 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:17.360 will you stop? Good day? No, no, what are you doing? 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.000 You'm just shocked by this stack? But no, when you 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:25.080 give the stat you shut up. Kevin Cobbs in there? 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:27.559 Can you blame me for being excited? Can you hear me? 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:36.120 Mc clevin? Huh? Yeah, see what's going on here? What 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:41.120 can you guys hear me? What do you mean? Oh? Okay, 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:45.280 what's going on? Okay, okay, all right, you let's talk 0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.880 about buying stock in the quarterback? Though is you're also 0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:51.160 buying the location? So are you buying stock in mac Jones? 0:12:51.200 --> 0:12:54.320 Are you buying stock in the Patriots quarterback? It's all 0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:58.360 all thrown in there. That changes everything. Okay, are you 0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:03.160 okay if you're buying stock? But mclovin, Yeah, Moody's just 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:07.839 downgraded Justin Fields because of his location. Although people pointing 0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:11.520 out Justin Fields went to a playoff team, Mac Jones didn't. Yes, 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:14.880 you would just buying aren't you buying mac Jones stock? 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.320 Too late? Now? Because it's mac Jones week. It's like 0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:20.200 everyone got it. If you would have gotten his stock 0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:23.080 in July, you'd be crushing. Yeah. Then who was going 0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:25.960 to buy his stock in July because people didn't think 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:28.040 New England was going to be a playoff team. And 0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:30.800 Mac Jones, is he any good? Remember the killing I 0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:33.480 made on that Russell Wilson stock you Seattle when everyone 0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:35.839 else like Matt Flynn. Yeah, I bought a truck off 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:39.960 that man in early on that yep, you know that Ipoh, Yeah, 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.560 you went in all all in on Russell Wilson June 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.560 the dud and I you know, I tried to short 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:47.360 the kirkdi Cousins stock. I tried to do that. I 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:49.560 gave it all back on my Mitch Drubisky stock after 0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:50.960 he went to the Pro Ball though. I gave it 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:56.480 all back. You were bullish. I was bullish on Tim Couch. 0:13:56.600 --> 0:13:58.720 I lost a bundle on that stock. You know he 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.160 was pretty good those first couple. Yeah, you're just on 0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:05.640 a bad team. It's it's it's the surroundings that you have. 0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:10.040 Deshaun Watson went to a decent Texans team. Now what 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:15.040 he did last year was miraculous, miraculous, but you gotta 0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:20.400 go to a good team. If Jimmy Garoppolo plays for Chicago, 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:25.960 are they any better? But I was gonna say Jacksonville, 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:29.360 but I thought, let me go to Chicago. Like he's 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:33.120 surrounded by weapons in San Francisco, good running game, offensive 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:35.600 minded headca Like it helps that you go to those 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:40.360 places because when you go to Detroit, you know, Jared 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:47.120 Golf's in Detroit. Is it Jared or him? Is it 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:50.960 Zach Wilson or the Jets. I'm always gonna opt for 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:55.320 it's the team's fault. You know, can Jared Golf play? Yes, 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.440 but he was playing on a team that had weapons 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:00.720 and an offensive minded head coach, coach, and they got 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.120 to the super Bowl. But you know, is he gonna 0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:06.760 do anything in Detroit? No, he's not. Probably won't be 0:15:06.800 --> 0:15:11.520 a starter after this season. So a long winded way 0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:14.600 of saying Mac Jones didn't do anything last night, But 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:17.920 this was more about the Falcons being bad in the 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:21.960 Patriots Patriot is dangerous. I guess that's the best word 0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.080 I can use for him right now. All right, we'll 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:25.840 come up with a poll question. Got a play of 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.120 the day, a couple more stats of the day, but 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:31.480 we'll take a break. Brady Quinn will join us. Michigan 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:34.240 State is on the verge of paying their head coach, 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.600 who has coached twenty nine games. He's sixteen to thirteen 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.800 as a head coach, almost as much as Nick Saban 0:15:40.840 --> 0:15:45.280 gets at Alabama. I got an update college football update 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:50.520 as well on the playoff playoffs and voting on are 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:53.920 they going to expand to twelve teams?

I'd have some information here 0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:07.280 from a source that I've been in contact with this morning. 0:17:07.600 --> 0:17:11.040 Twelve team playoff is a go, but they want to 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:14.000 get it done for next season. If it's not approved 0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:18.479 in December, the playoff won't be a goal with twelve 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:23.520 teams until twenty twenty five. We're going to know in 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.520 the next couple of weeks if we're going to be 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:29.840 expanding to twelve team playoff for next season, and if 0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:32.520 they don't get it passed, then it's going to be 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:35.880 twenty twenty five. I don't have any reasons yet from 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:38.640 my source, but they did table this. It was supposed 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:41.440 to be done. I was told last month they moved 0:17:41.440 --> 0:17:43.640 it to December. Now you have this vote, and if 0:17:43.640 --> 0:17:46.560 it doesn't pass, then we're looking at twenty twenty five. 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:49.879 Make way for Brady Quinn, Fox Sports College and NFL 0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:53.359 studio and game analyst, and of course the radio host 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:55.639 on Fox Sports Radio Two Pros and a Cup of 0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:58.639 Joe with LeVar Arrington and Jonas Knox, the show that 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:02.560 precedes hours on Fox Sports Radio. Let me start with that. Brady, 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:04.560 what do you make of that vote coming up in 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:08.119 December and the likelihood that we might not have a 0:18:08.119 --> 0:18:12.600 twelve team playoff until twenty twenty five. I'm keeping my 0:18:12.680 --> 0:18:16.199 fingers crossed and praying to the college football gods that 0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:21.200 we do expand. I think the college football playoff has 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:23.520 had a ton of momentum, and we've gotten to a 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:27.880 point now where we've seen there's flaws in the process 0:18:27.920 --> 0:18:31.600 of the thirteen person committee picking the four teams to 0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:36.119 playoff for it. There's just it's an unleveled comparison between 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:40.520 conferences between schedules and those and the likes. So I 0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.879 think we've gotten to a point now where expansion brings 0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:47.840 intrigue back to college football in the playoff again. It 0:18:47.840 --> 0:18:51.040 allows brands like Cincinnati, who I don't know if they'll 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:52.840 end up making in the top four this year or not. 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:54.520 We can have a debate all we want about whether 0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:57.840 or not they're deserving, but it allows them then the 0:18:57.960 --> 0:19:01.200 chance to actually make it a playoff and let's see 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:02.600 what they can do, and let's see if they can 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:04.800 make a run. But I think greater than that, Dan, 0:19:05.840 --> 0:19:09.439 it really allows more parody in college football right now. 0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:11.000 What you're seeing when you see a five star, four 0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:13.879 star recruit and you listen to these commitments, a lot 0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:15.639 of times they're saying, I want to go to Alabama 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:17.639 because I want a chance at going and winning the 0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:20.480 SEC and winning a national championship. You know, a lot 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:21.960 of kids are saying that when they go to some 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:26.000 of the top schools Ohio State, Alabama, Georgia, Oklahoma. You're 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:29.200 hearing them say this. And the problem is is those 0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:32.000 guys aren't looking someplace closer to home because they feel 0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:33.399 like there's just no shot of going to play in 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:36.160 the playoff. You expand this to twelve teams, I think, 0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:39.400 not exactly like March Madness, but you get a team 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.560 like in Zaga that was once viewed as a Cinderella 0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:44.000 story that's now viewed as a powerhouse, and it might 0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:45.760 take some time to build it to that, but I 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:47.280 think it will help build that narrative for some of 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:50.320 those programs and create more parody. So you know, couldn't 0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:52.280 get done in a couple of weeks, I hope. So 0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:54.840 it's not that complicated. We made so many adjustments over 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:57.719 last year with COVID why not, And you already had 0:19:57.720 --> 0:20:01.520 a twelve team or playoff ozell that you know was 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:03.679 being worked out for two years by Jack Swarbrick, the 0:20:03.720 --> 0:20:06.719 athletic director Notre Dame, and a few other conference commissioners, 0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:09.000 So it shouldn't be that hard to put it together. 0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:11.960 It just really comes down to the alignment where these 0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:14.960 games are played and how they go about structuring. I 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:18.640 think the first round of that twelve team playoff. What's 0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:22.800 your reaction to this proposed ten year contract for ninety 0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:27.960 million dollars for Meltucker at Michigan State and you got 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.680 the game against Ohio State this weekend where they're nineteen 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:36.280 point underdogs. You've beaten Michigan twice, but he's only coached 0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:40.199 what twenty nine games? Twenty eight games, and now you're 0:20:40.200 --> 0:20:42.719 going to put him up on par with Nick Saban 0:20:42.800 --> 0:20:46.800 with what he makes at Alabama. What am I missing here? Well? 0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:48.919 Did you ever see that movie The Perfect Storm with 0:20:49.000 --> 0:20:52.520 George Clooney? I did, but I honestly can't remember how 0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:54.280 it ends. I don't think it ends. Well, no, no, 0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:57.360 that doesn't work out. Well, maybe maybe that's the case 0:20:57.400 --> 0:20:59.280 here too, because I think this week at Ohio State 0:20:59.480 --> 0:21:03.040 may giving Michigan State the business, and by the way, 0:21:03.480 --> 0:21:05.760 probably even Penn State after that, like they could go 0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:08.560 on a two game skid after announcing this. But it 0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:11.280 really was the perfect storm. When you think about the 0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:13.560 track record of Nel Tucker, Remember he up and left 0:21:13.600 --> 0:21:16.280 Colorado after one year, and so he's already shown the 0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:19.440 propensity to do something like that, even though he's only 0:21:19.480 --> 0:21:21.760 been a Michigan State now for two years. So that 0:21:21.920 --> 0:21:25.120 was probably a concern. You have all these big programs now, 0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:28.399 LSU in particular, that I think we both know is 0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:30.720 the one that was probably throwing out some big figures 0:21:30.800 --> 0:21:32.879 or big numbers at him, trying to lure him back 0:21:33.200 --> 0:21:35.680 to the SEC where he once was a defensive coordinator. 0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:38.679 So that plays into the structure of the contract and 0:21:38.800 --> 0:21:42.560 the value. But you then have a program that has 0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:44.680 kind of turned some things around, and so I think 0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:47.240 they're trying to build off this momentum. They're trying to 0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:50.359 build off this intrigue into the program, and he's able 0:21:50.400 --> 0:21:52.320 to strike on it when he's one of the most 0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:54.879 wanted man's probably not only in college football. I wouldn't 0:21:54.880 --> 0:21:56.760 be shocked. I there's not a few NFL teams, given 0:21:56.760 --> 0:21:59.040 his NFL predigree in the past, that didn't look in 0:21:59.119 --> 0:22:01.600 on it. So when you give him a deal like this, 0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:05.320 he's basically saying like, I'm staying put, you know, don't 0:22:05.440 --> 0:22:07.119 You don't have to worry about coming back to me 0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:08.760 next year, the next year, the next year, if there's 0:22:08.760 --> 0:22:11.879 a job opening, I'm staying put here at Michigan State. 0:22:12.240 --> 0:22:14.479 It looks like a lot of money, But I do 0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:17.719 think if you as you project forward, all these coaches 0:22:17.800 --> 0:22:20.200 contracts are only going to go up. With a big 0:22:20.280 --> 0:22:25.199 ten TV rights deal coming up soon, I think schools 0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:27.080 are going to look at other revenue models as well, 0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:29.600 like like professional sports legs with Gamway to figure out 0:22:29.800 --> 0:22:32.040 how to capitalize on some of that too. So it 0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:34.560 always seems like a lot now. I think five years 0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:35.800 down the road, though, you just see a lot more 0:22:35.840 --> 0:22:37.520 coaches who are up in the stratosphere. As far as 0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:39.560 what he's being compensated. Yeah, they're gonna go in and say, 0:22:39.600 --> 0:22:44.000 I want the mil Tucker deal. Hey, what are you 0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:47.120 looking for? Mil Tucker money is what I'm looking at? 0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:51.840 And how is Lane Kiffen possibly up for the job 0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:56.280 or be interested or whatever. It's rumored reported that Lane 0:22:56.359 --> 0:22:59.760
