Speaker 1: Min See, you know how I feel about college football,

11
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: and I know how you feel about college football.

12
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 2: This is a great time of the year for me.

13
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 2: I mean I am.

14
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: I have said this time and time again. I love

15
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: all sports, and I think I have shown over the

16
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 1: years I have a knowledge of a lot of sports,

17
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: and a lot of people don't care about it. If

18
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: I were to separate myself from some of the other

19
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: people that have knowledge of sports, it's the fact that

20
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: I do it across the board.

21
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: I'm not just circled in on one sport.

22
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: That being said, college football to me represents everything you

23
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: talk about checking every box.

24
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 2: Look, I know the highest level football is played.

25
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 1: Obviously in the NFL, so it's a notch below that,

26
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: but it has the history, it has sort of that

27
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: regional flavor. It has the fans that show up in

28
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: mass over one hundred thousand at over a dozen stadiums

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: around the country. It just to me, and you get

30
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: new faces all the time. It's not the same old story. Certainly,

31
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 1: we have certain coaches that hang around a long time,

32
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: but new names, new faces every year is very fresh

33
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: to me. So this, to me, is the most exciting

34
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: time of the sports season.

35
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: Yeah.

36
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 4: I may not be as close to college football as

37
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 4: you or many other people. I've said that I don't

38
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 4: have any fandom in here, but everything you just said,

39
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 4: I see it. I feel it. And even though I

40
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 4: have no direct connection to a football team or a

41
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 4: school like that, I still see it and see I

42
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 4: see it. I feel it, the excitement, the people, the fans.

43
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 4: There are things that, yes, I have questions about. I

44
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,519
Speaker 4: was just telling you off air. I was like, I

45
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 4: don't know how I could be excited that my team

46
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 4: is kicking ass seventy seven to zero. But yet, okay,

47
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 4: that's part of football season in college I don't know

48
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: how I could get into that. I would be absolutely

49
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 4: wasted by the end of the game if I was

50
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 4: at one of those because it's it's just I don't.

51
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 4: I don't. I like competitiveness right, so that I don't understand,

52
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 4: but I do feel correct me if I'm wrong here.

53
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 4: I used to always hear that college football was better

54
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 4: than the NFL because players played because they love the game.

55
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 4: Now with nil, doesn't that change it.

56
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: It's a great question, but your first thought about the

57
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,440
Speaker 1: difference in players playing college football versus the NFL.

58
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: Yes, this goes back in the day.

59
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: So when I went to UCLA, two of our biggest

60
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:01,079
Speaker 1: college stars at UCLA both had great NFL careers. One

61
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: of them is actually in the Pro Football Hall of Fame,

62
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: and both were three time All Americans at UCLA and

63
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: both in the College Football Hall of Fame. That was

64
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: Jerry Robinson, a great linebacker, and Kenny Easley, who was

65
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: one of the great safeties in.

66
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 2: Professional football as well.

67
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: So years ago I was doing I was working for

68
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: a UCLA publication and part of my assignments do these

69
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: interviews with members of the you know, the Athletic Hall

70
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 1: of Fame. So I did separate interviews. I knew both

71
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: of them on a personal level. It wasn't like I

72
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: was introducing myself to either one of these guys. So

73
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: we started going through over details about their college games.

74
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: I think Jerry was the first one and he stopped

75
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: as we were talking about a game. He goes, you know,

76
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: it's really interesting. I can remember almost every detail of

77
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: every college game I played, but outside of maybe the

78
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: Super Bowl I played in, I don't remember much of

79
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: any of my NFL games. Interesting, So I guess it

80
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,840
Speaker 1: was maybe a month later when I talked to Kenny

81
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: Easley and we're starting to you know, let's go back

82
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: to u STLA days and he's talking. He goes, you know,

83
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: it's really where, Steve, I can remember almost every detail

84
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: of my college career. It was like it was a script,

85
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: Like he literally said. I paused, like, have you talked

86
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: to Jerry Robinson basily? But this is the way it is.

87
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 1: It's a much different mentality. Even guys that have been

88
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: Hall of famers will tell you the difference between playing

89
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: college as opposed to making football your actual profession. You know,

90
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: from day one, when you're draft in the NFL, your

91
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 1: first training camp, you're in competition for a job, and

92
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: it's not like that now. I think the money situation

93
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: that you bring up is a very interesting dynamic because

94
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 1: it's no longer amateur athletics if you're paying them. So

95
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: how that will change, I don't know if time will

96
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: maybe tell, but that that is the big difference. If

97
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: you were talk to football players, they will tell you

98
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: our own of our errington. Yeah, you know, college football

99
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer at Penn State and then obviously had

100
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: a great NFL career before some injuries, you know, short

101
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 1: in his career, but he'll tell you it's like.

102
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 2: Night and day.

103
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, the atmosphere and what was like to

104
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: play at Penn State as opposed to playing in the NFL.

105
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 4: That's what I had heard forever, forever, and so I

106
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 4: always try to like get into college football and it's

107
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 4: taken some time. Like I said, I really enjoy watching it.

108
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 4: I don't even care who wins. There's something in the

109
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 4: air with college football that stands out in comparison to

110
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 4: other atmospheres. You kind of like can't replicate it with

111
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 4: other sports. You can kind of replicate it, right like

112
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 4: going to Yes, going to an NFL game has way

113
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 4: more fans than an NBA game, But you can kind

114
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 4: of replicate that atmosphere with college football than you can.

115
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: Well, and let's go back to what we saw the

116
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: other night with Colorado and North Dakota State. Oh yes,

117
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: so Colorado football a couple of years ago, they were

118
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: a one win program and they made the Bowl move

119
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: to hire Deon Sanders coach Prime as their head coach.

120
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: And then last year got off to that amazing three

121
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: and zero start and then the wheels fell off and

122
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: they go one and eight the rest of the way.

123
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: So they're opening their season against North Dakota State at home.

124
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: North Dakota State is an FCS power, they win national championship.

125
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: They've had all these quarterbacks, so Carson Wentz and Trey

126
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: Lance and Easton Stick, all these quarterbacks over the years.

127
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: Who's you know, we've seen in the NFL. But there's

128
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: still a FCS program.

129
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 2: They're not, you know. And it was a great game.

130
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: It was back and forth.

131
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: But what was more impressive than me is just seeing

132
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: that Colorado crow.

133
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, right, of course. I mean the stands are full.

134
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 4: There was not an inch of availability, none, none. I

135
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 4: think students were on top of each other.

136
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: They were given away tickets a couple of years ago.

137
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: So this is what coach Prime has brought to the

138
00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: He's made them and the country's watching. Even a team

139
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: that was one in eight in conference play last year

140
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: in the PAC twelve four and eight.

141
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 2: Overall, it doesn't matter. Let's see what's next.

142
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: They still have Sherdoor Sanders, they still have Dravis Hunter,

143
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: they still have some players that we want to see.

144
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 2: And that's that's the beauty of it.

145
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: And that's when you get that level of enthusiasm for

146
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: the college game. That I'm not saying this for all

147
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: NFL teams, because there are some really rabid fans for

148
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: NFL teams, like in Buffalo or Green Bay and places

149
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: like that, but it's a it's a different dynamic, a

150
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: different atmosphere when you're going to one of these big

151
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: time college football stadiums see a game.

152
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, because in the NFL, I feel like the fandom

153
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 4: it's not ninety percent to ten percent. When in college

154
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 4: football it really is like that you only root for

155
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 4: your school, that is it.

156
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 2: You will not.

157
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 4: Root for another school. And I feel like with professional sports,

158
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 4: you're like me, it's like, oh, I'm a Dodgers fan,

159
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 4: but you might see me rooting for Aaron Judge and

160
00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 4: the Yankees too. That happens. You know, it's just a

161
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 4: little bit different. But in college that is your school.

162
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 4: Everybody else is dead to you, well.

163
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: Exactly, and it's such a dynamic about you know, this

164
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: is me versus you, you know, and you wear your

165
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: colors and everything else. Yeah, and again I'm not belittling

166
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: true NFL fans of their NFL team, not at all.

167
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: But what percentage of people that are absolutely devoted to

168
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: the National Football League are motive more devoted to their

169
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: fantasy football teams than any.

170
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: Actual team in the league. So true or the team

171
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 2: they're betting on? That thing? True?

172
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: Not? The gambling doesn't exist in college football as far

173
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: as the games are concerned. But you know, I haven't

174
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: seen college football fantasy football. I mean it might be

175
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: out there, but it's not like the NFL.

176
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 4: It's actually a really good point because in fantasy football,

177
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 4: a lot of my friends are even me Sean. It's

178
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 4: like you draft somebody you don't like. You're like, oh,

179
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 4: I have to draft this player. I don't want them

180
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 4: on my team. I bet you if you did college fantasy,

181
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 4: people will be like, I can't draft this person. This

182
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 4: person goes to my rival school. I can't do that.

183
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 4: But yeah, then I have to draft this guy that

184
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 4: I don't like, but I'm gonna do it anyway. I

185
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 4: feel like that would not happen in college.

186
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: It is such a weird dynamic.

187
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 4: Start cheering for them a little bit, you're kind of

188
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 4: root for them.

189
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 2: You can't do that.

190
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: Tomorrow We're gonna be doing on our Fox Football Sunday show,

191
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: Final one before we get to Red Zone Radio, our

192
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: preview of the NFC, and then of course then we

193
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: get to Red Zone Radio. It's so funny with you,

194
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: know you and you always have multiple fantasy football tea Yes,

195
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: so while you're scrambling to update all these games are

196
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: going simultaneously, at the same time, you're also watching your

197
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: fantasy football player.

198
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm trying to pretend I'm not affected and trying

199
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 4: to pretend.

200
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: I just remember that very first week we have with you,

201
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: and your head was literally spinning. It was like ten

202
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: games kicking off, You're trying to follow your fantasy football

203
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: and we come to you for that first update and

204
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: you're just like.

205
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 2: Okay, nope.

206
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 4: I think I quit that day on airon like seven

207
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 4: times within four hours, just because I was like, this

208
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 4: is not possible. Nobody prepped me for this. And now

209
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 4: it's like nine games.

210
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: Please please please, it's nothing throw something happening. Yeah, so

211
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: this is this is such a dynamic time of the year. Look,

212
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 1: most of these first couple of weeks we're gonna see mismatches.

213
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: I mean, we've got the game right now, Texas and

214
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 1: Colorado State. Texas leading this game inside eleven minutes to

215
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: go in the fourth court, it's forty five to nothing.

216
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: And the big story in this game quin yours. Who

217
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: is a legitimate Heisman Trophy candidate the Texas quarterback?

218
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 2: Remember arch Manning?

219
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, he's on the team who.

220
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 1: Was in the top three nil earners a year ago.

221
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: He didn't get.

222
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: Off the bench much last year, and he's coming off

223
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: the bench again this year. By the way, he came

224
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 1: off the bench in his blow out win. He saw

225
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 1: four for four sixty five yards in a score. So

226
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: he's off to a good start.

227
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 2: But you ask.

228
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: Yourself, with the transfer portal and everything else, why is

229
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: he is he gonna sit another year at Texas? Can

230
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: you imagine how much money he is getting to stand

231
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: on the sidelines so he won't leave Texas?

232
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is a good question. But I feel like

233
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 4: with arch Manning, it is a different situation than the

234
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 4: average college player. I think the average college player nowadays

235
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 4: is looking to make money. M is arch Manning looking

236
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 4: to make money.

237
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, remember Hayden and Eli are his uncles exactly.

238
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, is his dad who's done well,

239
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 1: you can only assume.

240
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 4: My point with that is that you can only assume

241
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 4: he's there because he wants to be there, apparently, And

242
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 4: it's a rarity while everybody else is going maybe where

243
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 4: they're wanted more, you know, money and all that.

244
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: So that's all. It's a unique situation.

245
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: No one with his high I mean, he was rted

246
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:47,839
Speaker 1: the number one high school quarter of the back in

247
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: the country two years ago and sit for two years.

248
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 4: Well, again, he's not in a rush. He's probably he

249
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 4: probably just really wants to be there. He is a

250
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 4: rarity to this entire situation because of his family.

251
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,600

283
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 1: coming alive from the Tairaq dot com studios. Now, Manzi

284
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 1: is training for a half marathon, which is next week.

285
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 2: It is next week, So how did.

286
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:54,079
Speaker 1: You prep today to get ready for this half marathon, which,

287
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: by my calculation is over thirteen miles.

288
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 4: Just a tiny bit over thirteen just a little smith. Yeah,

289
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 4: I ran nine miles today, so I'm a little tired,

290
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 4: all tired.

291
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 2: Okay.

292
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: Now here's the thing about Moncey. Moncey is not the

293
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: tallest individual. So I feel like like nine miles for

294
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: you would be like eight miles for me from exactly.

295
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: You know, if you have well you know those runners,

296
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: because you run with these and you see these long,

297
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: lengthy long legs, right and you're doing two steps, two

298
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: strides are every one of theirs. This is true, so

299
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: you're really having to work it.

300
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 4: Yes, that is that is accurate.

301
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I you know, but.

302
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 4: I've done them before. I have not done a half

303
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 4: marathon since before the pandemic, so it's been a minute,

304
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 4: but I have done them before and it's the week before.

305
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 4: So it was like I had no I woke up

306
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 4: and I was like, I have no option but to

307
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 4: run nine miles today.

308
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 2: I have no other Here's my hats would be never. Never.

309
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 2: I can barely ran nine hundred yards.

310
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean seriously, Well, I problem with running for me

311
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: is I'm very flat footed. Ah yeah, and so it's

312
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: not a matter so much about the cardio as my

313
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 1: feet literally going numb after half a mile of running,

314
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: like I cannot feel for my ankles down and you and.

315
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 4: Yes, flat being flat footed is a disadvantage to the situation,

316
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 4: that is true. And shoes matter like I I shoes matter, Yeah,

317
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 4: they do. Like my running shoes are not cheap.

318
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 2: So your your race is when.

319
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 4: September eighth, Sunday, Sunday, a week from tomorrow.

320
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa are you going to go for?

321
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 2: So you're taking the day off.

322
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 4: I'm taking the day off.

323
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I was gonna say no, way was gonna show.

324
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 4: I told I told Dan, I was like, listen, if

325
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 4: nobody can come in, I will show up on Sunday,

326
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 4: sweaty and in my metal I will do it, don't

327
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 4: you worry. But luckily somebody was able to cover.

328
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: Uh.

329
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 4: But I was gonna come in. If you couldn't find anyone,

330
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 4: I wouldn't let you. Guys hang I al. I didn't

331
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 4: know it was going to be the same. I signed

332
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 4: up for this so long ago, and then it was like, oh,

333
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 4: it's first week of NFL, and I was like, why

334
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 4: would I what? I didn't know. I signed up for

335
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 4: this so long ago.

336
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 2: It was so foreign to me. I just I admire anybody.

337
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 6: You know.

338
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: I'm one of those that's been on the periphery of

339
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: sports my entire life. It wasn't like I was completely uncoordinated.

340
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: It's just like I didn't have wheels. Like if you

341
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: don't have wheels, you're limited as an athlete. And so

342
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: that's what was my biggest step. I had decent hands

343
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: and I coordination everything else, but if you don't have

344
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: the wheels, it's hard.

345
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

346
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 4: And I'm not fast. I'm not like a sprinter, and

347
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 4: I didn't run in high school. I played sports. This

348
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 4: was something I picked up like after high school. And

349
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know, I just started. I started

350
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 4: running with my brother and we've been doing it. I'm

351
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 4: running with my brother. We've been doing it for years now,

352
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 4: and we're both like, oh, how are we going to

353
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 4: get through this one? You know, because I'm sure maybe

354
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 4: some of you have heard, I had to put my

355
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 4: dog down on August twelfth, very sad. I'm still Dexter,

356
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 4: but you know what, he is living his best life

357
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 4: somewhere else and I know it. And so it took

358
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 4: I lost two weeks of training. I was doing really well,

359
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 4: and then for two weeks, you know, I didn't want

360
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 4: to do anything and I didn't, so I kind of

361
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 4: took a step back.

362
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 2: Dexter will be with you that entire rold.

363
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 4: That's what I'm hoping that he'll give me the energy

364
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 4: to get to the thirteen.

365
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: He will carry you to the finish line, all right.

366
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: So speaking of the finish line, trying to get on

367
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: a fifty three man roster in the NFL.

368
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 4: That's a finish line, especially.

369
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 2: If you are a free agent rookie, is difficult. It happens.

370
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: I mean there are free agent rookies that show up

371
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: at training camps and while them Austin Eckler. Yeah, you know,

372
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,959
Speaker 1: it was a free agent rookie with the Chargers and

373
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: became at least for a few years, an elite running

374
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: back in the National Football League. So it's not unpressing.

375
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: But for Sam Hartman, my nephew by proxy, oh it

376
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: hurts you. He did not make the fifty three man roster.

377
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: Now he was added to the practice squad. And if

378
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: you're not familiar with practice squads around the NFL, here's

379
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: how it works.

380
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 2: So they can maintain up to ten player.

381
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if they've raised it, but at least

382
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 1: ten players on the practice squad and they're there for practice.

383
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: I mean, you need extra bodies.

384
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: But any other team can take someone off a practice

385
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 1: squad because essentially they're free agents if and only if

386
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,159
Speaker 1: they are to be on the fifty three man roster.

387
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: So remember these are marginal guys anyway, if they're on

388
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: a practice squad and so then you know, again, maybe

389
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: someone will look at Sam Hartman. There might be a

390
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: couple of injury quarterbacks. But when you think about his legacy,

391
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: you know, he had some huge years at wake for US,

392
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: went to Notre Dame, and then he showed up at

393
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: the combine with the flowing loss.

394
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 4: I mean, let's be real, that hair. It's hard to

395
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 4: forget it. You have similar hair.

396
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: I no, not even close. But I mean he the

397
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: flowing loss. I mean you're like, Okay, he's a first

398
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: round pick.

399
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

400
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 2: Lot of the ladies are like, now that's a first

401
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 2: round pick.

402
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 4: How like panteen Provy did not make a commercial out

403
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,119
Speaker 4: of Sam Hartman's hair is something that they definitely that

404
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 4: was a missed opportunity for everybody with the shampoo product,

405
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 4: for sure. And you know, if you're on the practice squad,

406
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 4: you have to be feeling good, especially as a quarterback.

407
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 4: How many quarterbacks started last year in the NFL after

408
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 4: all the injuries one hundred and twenty. I know that's

409
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 4: not the number, but you get what I'm saying, Yes,

410
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 4: how many ended up playing?

411
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 2: He has a chance there. It is. Look at that

412
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 2: flowing main right, It is just flowing.

413
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 4: Is something about It's like he has a fan with

414
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 4: him at all times, and it's.

415
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: Just he looks so good. Yes, what is it? I

416
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: told you my daughter Paris Hartman met Sam Hartman. He

417
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: was out in the uh oh right, oh yeah, mate

418
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: ran into him and you know, so and she goes

419
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: he lived up to the hype.

420
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 4: I would be like, do you use dry shampoo? Sam?

421
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 4: That's what I mean? And if you do, what kind uh.

422
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 1: One interesting story, though, beyond Sam Hartman not making a

423
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: fifty three man roster, was the announcement by Jerry Jones

424
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: that Dak Prescott will not be offered a contract extension

425
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: before the Sea. In other words, he's playing out the string.

426
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: He's heading to free agency in twenty twenty five. This

427
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: is a guy who finished second in the NFL Most

428
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: Valuable Player voting a year ago. The Cowboys gave Ceedee

429
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: Lamba's money. They've given other players of money, but they

430
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 1: have decided, no, We're gonna do a wait and see.

431
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: And of course you run the risk that if Dak

432
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: Prescott has a big year, how about wins the Super

433
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: Bowl or something, all of a sudden he's a free agent, yeah,

434
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: and the buckets of money are being ported at his feet,

435
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: and he could look at Jerry Jones said you had

436
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: your chance one percent.

437
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 4: I don't know what Jerry jones thought process is here.

438
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 4: I have thought before that Jerry Jones doesn't necessarily care

439
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 4: about winning that he just cares about money and he

440
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 4: cares about the product that is the Cowboys, which, lucky

441
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 4: for him, Cowboy fans are not going to go anywhere.

442
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 4: They're gonna stick around. I mean they signed obviously, Michael

443
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 4: Parsons is still up in the air.

444
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: But this just kind of.

445
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 4: Makes me feel like Jerry Jones does not care about winning,

446
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,120
Speaker 4: and he thinks he's smarter than the rest of us.

447
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,680
Speaker 2: I'm not sure about the winning part.

448
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: He's at a point of his life where the clock

449
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 1: is running out and it's been thirty years almost now

450
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: since they won that last Super Bowl or even been

451
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: to the NFC Championship game. I do agree about the

452
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: idea that obviously, I mean, he has the most valuable

453
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: North American franchise. Yeah, I mean it's worth ten billion dollars,

454
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: So I mean he's He's okay from the money standpoint.

455
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: I just know this, when you lock up a certain

456
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: percentage of your cap to one player, which is usually

457
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: a quarterback because they're the highest paid players, it limits

458
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: what you can do. And he's got to be looking

459
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: at Deck's inability. I mean last year was a disaster. Yeah,

460
00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: they had all that momentum going into the postseason. You're

461
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: hosting the Green Bay Packers with a first year start

462
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: quarterback in Jordan Love, and Jordan Love was the better

463
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 1: quarterback in that game.

464
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 2: On the road against the Cowboys.

465
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 1: So you're thinking, look, I've got all these weapons, I

466
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: got all these pieces to the puzzle. Is Dak Prescott replaceable?

467
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: So in his mind he must think he is?

468
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 3: He is.

469
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 4: That's what it seems like that he is okay with

470
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 4: Dak walking away if he has a successful season, because

471
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 4: there's a lot of teams I think that would pick

472
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 4: up Dak Prescott if they could.

473
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 2: Are you kidding?

474
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 4: He would do it right now, even with last absolutely,

475
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 4: So imagine if he has a good season, there's gonna

476
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,959
Speaker 4: be double the amount of teams. So I think you're

477
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 4: onto something that Jerry Jones at this point has to

478
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 4: be okay with a successful season for the Cowboys and

479
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 4: for Dak Prescott and Prescott walking away and him starting

480
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 4: over with Tree Lamp.

481
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: I think the Cowboys tomorrow for our NFC preview on

482
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 1: Fox Football Sunday.

483
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 2: It's gonna be the most interesting team.

484
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: We had some real discrepancy with the AFC last week

485
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,199
Speaker 1: in terms of this funny Rich and I. Rich Arnberger

486
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 1: and I were sort of in lockstep. And then our

487
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: producer Bow and Chris on the board, they seem to

488
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 1: be in a lot like we were like like Rich

489
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 1: and I were not far apart of most of the teams,

490
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: and then we get to them and they're.

491
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 4: Like, no, yeah, that's great though.

492
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 1: So you'll be like the tiebreaker. I can see that

493
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 1: coming up tomorrow. All right, let's find out what is

494
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 1: trending right now. Look who's in the house mind double duty,

495
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: triple duty.

496
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 2: Whatever he does. The great Martin Weiss is here right.

497
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 2: How are you, man, I'm doing well. I'm good. How

498
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 2: do you feel about your Wolverines this season?

499
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 7: I feel slightly better after watching Ohio State today.

500
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 2: All that money in that rotter, all that, and it.

501
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 1: Just looks like they swapped hold on here, the zips

502
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: are not good.

503
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 7: Actually yeah, yeah, well, I'm just do We saw this

504
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 7: with Ohio State a million times last year.

505
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 2: I know you asked me the question about the Wolverines.

506
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,919
Speaker 7: But the reason, oh, I'm saying, because look, defending national

507
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 7: champions will be true until the National Championship is played again.

508
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 7: I'm not sure how Michigan will be after losing everybody.

509
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 7: But if Michigan wins three games this year, and one

510
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 7: of the three is the Saturday after Thanksgiving beating Ohio State.

511
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 7: I will consider that not only a success, but like

512
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 7: almost just sort of best case scenario. Yeah, because Michigan rebuilds,

513
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 7: and even in the rebuilding year, Ryan Day, it's not happening.

514
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 1: For you if you're having I'm always curious about fans' mentality,

515
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: especially alum on rivalry. Games like this happened to me

516
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: a few times at UCLA where we didn't have a

517
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 1: particularly good year, but we beat SC if I get

518
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: erase the whole bad year. In fact, I was doing

519
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: the color commentary one year on you say football, we

520
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 1: had a losing season four and six upset sc made

521
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: my ear. They said, what was your record this year?

522
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 1: I go one and oh one, that's what our record

523
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 1: was this year.

524
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 2: It's weird.

525
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 7: I mean, I know every game counts as a winner

526
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 7: or lost in the standings, but some games you can't lose.

527
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 7: In some games, as you know, if you lose, if

528
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 7: you lose one or two of them, nobody cares. Yes, right, yeah,

529
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 7: they would have cared in Ohio State if they had

530
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 7: lost the actor Today, it's not going to happen though,

531
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 7: just over twelve minutes left in the fourth quarter thirty

532
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 7: eight to six. Took a second for Ohio State to

533
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 7: get started scoring, but defensive started scoring a fumble recovery

534
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 7: for a touchdown.

535
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 2: So on.

536
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 7: Kansas Estate transfer Will Howard hundred seventy three yards, passing

537
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 7: two touchdowns through the air, both of those to Jeremiah Smith,

538
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 7: freshman wide receiver for the Buckeyes. He has six catches

543
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 7: the game, and this one threw a touchdown pass himself.

544
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 7: Speaking of rivalries not going well, I don't know what

545
00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 7: it looks like for the rest of the year for

546
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 7: the Versity of Florida, but right now it's ugly.

547
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 2: Thirty eight to ten.

548
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,080

551
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 7: twenty one yards passing three touchdowns, one interception, and Steve,

552
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 7: to answer your question again, if I had seen cam

553
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 7: Ward and Scarlett and Gray, would have been much more

554
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 7: nervous about what's going on in the Big Ten, because

555
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 7: that kid looks legit right now. Elsewhere in college football

556
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 7: games that we already saw wrap up, I was scored

557
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,639

00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 7: No, Steve, you don't have to say the Tennessee quarterbacks

562
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 7: name the kid from Long Beach.

563
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 2: I haven't figured it out yet. I am Alivia, I'm Olevia.

564
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: Look it took me long enough for uyong Alla.

565
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 4: Okay, I can barely do that one.

566
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: I figured out when he was in high school, before

567
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: he went to Clemson, then Oregon State, and Well Nico.

568
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 3: Had a better then.

569
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 7: DJ had basically an entire career throwing in fourteen yards,

570
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 7: passing few tucholl.

571
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 2: They even now call him vis dj.

572
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 7: U DJU DJ Well Nico I here Virginia Tennessee balled

573
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 7: out today Georgia thirty four over Clemson, who had three.

574
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,959
Speaker 7: Clemson the fourteenth, thirteeen of the nation going in. That'll

575
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 7: change in Penn State beat West Virginia thirty four to twelve.

576
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: I remember doing an interview with Marcus Mariota when he was,

577
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: you know, winning the Heisman at Oregon. Sure, I asked him,

578
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: I said, you know, I've heard your last name two ways.

579
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: I've heard Mariota, I've heard Mariota.

580
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:42,359
Speaker 2: And he was very nice about it.

581
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 1: He goes, look at it, it's it's Marcus Mariota. It's

582
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: not Marcus Mariota. It's Marcus Mariota. Because I don't really care.

583
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 1: And to this day, I still hear people call him

584
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota when it's Mariota, like Mario Tomato Tomato, like

Speaker 1: When you when you see names, and especially in television,

00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 1: I'll see names like on the prompter and it just

592
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: looks like a bunch of letters thrown up on the

Speaker 1: coming up here.

624
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 2: Shortly.

625
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about this Tom Brady story

626
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: and his ownership with the Raiders. Okay, this is a

627
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: really interesting story. So when you buy a portion of

628
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: any team, it to get approval from the other owners,

629
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: and usually it's a formality. It's rare that they ever

630
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: say no. If somebody is willing to invest money on

631
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: the league, they're like, fine, you can do that.

632
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: But here's the problem for Tom Brady. If Tom Brady

633
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 2: gets approval.

634
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: For part ownership of the Raiders as a Fox Sports

635
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 1: radio analyst, not just any one that's being paid thirty

636
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: seven million dollars a year and it's the lead analyst

637
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: on their number one broadcast, will be cut off from

638
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: access to every single team in the NFL. Now, if

639
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: you don't know how this works, and I go back

640
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 1: even to the Raider days when we were on a

641
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 1: feature game, the announcers that week, whoever they were, would

642
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: come down, We'd give them insight. They'd talk to players,

643
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: they would talk to the coaches. It is what you

644
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: do to get ready for the broadcast. Tom Brady, if

645
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: he's approved for ownership hard ownership of the Raiders, will

646
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 1: be excluded from ever talking to anybody anybody leading up

647
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: to a game, not just for the broadcast, anyone at all,

648
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: because he has an ownership stake in one of the teams,

649
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: which means he would have to do the analysts work

650
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: every week without any conversations with any coaches, players, or anyone.

651
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 2: Else leading up to that game. Now, there's a couple

652
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 2: of questions.

653
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 1: A Can he pull that off and still be a

654
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: dynamic analyst without that prep going into the game. Should

655
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: he be restricted? And is it worth it to buy

656
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: I don't know ten percent.

657
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: Of the Raiders.

658
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, Tom Brady's pickle is a big one, that's for sure.

659
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 4: I don't think he can do the job if he

660
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 4: does not do the job as well as he could

661
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 4: if he does not have access like everyone else. I

662
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 4: don't see how this works out unless he decides to

663
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,760
Speaker 4: not become an owner yet. I don't see why we

664
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 4: can't just put that to the side. It's like, let

665
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,959
Speaker 4: me do this year full analyst, let me have all

666
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 4: the access, and then in a year maybe we can

667
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 4: talk about my ownership with you, mister Davis.

668
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: But it's not just any job, because he's being paid

669
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: thirty seven million dollars a year now right. Walking away

670
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: from thirty seven million dollars a year guaranteed over ten

671
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: years seems rough. But how many opportunities do you get

672
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: an ownership stake in an NFL team? Every team is

673
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: worth well over a billion dollars, right.

674
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 4: So I feel like the fair thing, I mean, life

675
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 4: isn't fair, but the fair thing for him is right

676
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 4: to actually do this and do it the right way

677
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 4: with all the access, and then make a decision as

678
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 4: to what he wants to do.

679
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 2: After this year.

680
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 4: I read that maybe they could entertain the idea of

681
00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 4: bringing Greg Olsen on the team and then there's three

682
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 4: of them, and that way he still is there. But

683
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: he doesn't have the access.

684
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 2: That's thirty seven million dollars.

685
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 4: Really, it makes it doesn't if you're fine, look at.

686
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: If I'm Fox Sports, I'm I'm laying down the law

687
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: as much as you are the number one guy. There's

688
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 1: a reason we gave you this. We even sat on

689
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: this deal for a year because you didn't want to

690
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 1: do it last year. Fine, the idea, but the idea

691
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: of him, you.

692
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 4: Know, yeah, no, and he they can't give him access

693
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 4: if he does become an owner.

694
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 2: You can't do that.

695
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 4: Zero, You cannot do that. That is murky waters. You

696
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 4: don't want to do that. So there's that. Take that

697
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 4: off the table. It's either put the ownership to the

698
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 4: side for another year and do this fully, or you

699
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 4: are not an analyst and you just move forward.

700
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: Well, I guess it really comes down to the audience.

701
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 1: Does the audience care? In other words, you're saying, I

702
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: don't really care. It's Tom Brady. He's all he's really

703
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: doing is analyzing the game as it's happening.

704
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,959
Speaker 2: Do I really care about backstories? Do I really care?

705
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: Like, well, you know, I talked to the quarterback coach

706
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: this week and he said, you know, Lee looking for this.

707
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 4: But that matters with his analytics.

708
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,239
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter because it's Tom Brady. Is he in

709
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: a class by himself?

710
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 4: He isn't a class by himself. Both can be true.

711
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,720
Speaker 4: He isn't a class by himself. It is Tom Brady.

712
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 4: And maybe it doesn't matter. Maybe he can still analyze

713
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 4: the game without having that access. But I think it

714
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 4: would just enhance his analysis. And why take course, it

715
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 4: would I'm saying so it's like, no, you can't.

716
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 2: You can't do both well.

717
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 1: And the other part of that is when you say it,

718
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: would it enhance? This is a guy who became the

719
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:46,439
Speaker 1: goat by detail every single aspect of the game. He

720
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: did too perfection to become even though he didn't have

721
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 1: the greatest physical tools necessarily, he became the goat because

722
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: he didn't skip any steps. So it just seemed to

723
00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,399
Speaker 1: me the mentality for someone like.

724
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 4: That that he wouldn't even want to do it.

725
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: Walk into a game not prepared, yeah, no notes, nothing,

726
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,359
Speaker 1: just wing it.

727
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, doesn't seem like to be part of his mentality.

728
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 2: All right.

729
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: The Heisman chase is underway. Hartman's Heisman is coming up next.

Speaker 1: very happy to say it's that time. All right now, Mancy,

737
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 1: I know I keep this a secret, but I actually

738
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: have an official Heisman vote.

739
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 2: Did you know that?

740
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, this is brand new information. Wow.

741
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 2: I tell everybody this.

742
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 1: This is actually my fifteenth year of being an official

743
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,879
Speaker 1: Heisman voter. The first time I voted was in twenty ten,

744
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,720
Speaker 1: and that was the year Cam Newton won the Heisman Trophy.

745
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 4: How many of the times that you have voted hasn't

746
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 4: been the Heisman winner?

747
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 2: All but three times?

748
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 4: All but three.

749
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 1: The only times I voted for someone other than who

750
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,399
Speaker 1: actually won the Heisman was I had Manti Tail over

751
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 1: Johnny Manzil, I had Christian McCaffrey over Derrick Henry, and

752
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: then last year Michael Pennock over Jaden Daniels.

753
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 2: So each week, what I want to do is.

754
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: Keep you updated on where I sit in terms of

755
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: the Heisman race. We have three because well that's how

756
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 1: many spots are on the final Heisman ballot.

757
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 2: I always like when they hear the top five. No,

758
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 2: there's not top five, there's three. There's always three spots.

759
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 2: So let's get this thing started. Here is my current

760
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:54,760
Speaker 2: number three. Sought you up to back. Gabriel runs it himself.

761
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 3: Has a whole five two one touchdown.

762
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 2: Helloh, Dylan Gabriel. He's playing today, Teddy touchdown. That's Toby

763
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 2: Rowland lear field.

764
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel is about to play his first game of

765
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 1: his season. He is now at Oregon. If you lost

766
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,760
Speaker 1: sight of where he is, so, is that Central Florida.

767
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: Then he went to Oklahoma for a couple of years.

768
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: It's his sixth year. But Dylan Gabriel already has had

769
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: a remarkable college career. And if he stays healthy and

770
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: he puts up the kind of numbers the third rank

771
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: Oregon is expected to put up, this guy could literally

772
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: rewrite the college football record book. Dylan Gabriel, orgon quarterback,

773
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: is my current number three.

774
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 2: Here is my number two.

775
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 8: Two receivers tight to the left, that's Loving and Smith

776
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 8: Won to the right. That's Colby Young. He's going after

777
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 8: Colby beg puts it in the air, caught on a

778
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 8: spinning move in the end zone. Touchdown, Georgia.

779
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 1: That's Scott Howard Learfield, Georgia quarterback. Carson Beck is my

780
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: current number two. He's still smarting from that lost to

781
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 1: Alabama last year in that Sea Championship game, by the way,

782
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: the only game that Georgia's lost in three years.

783
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 2: Right, and he is determined.

784
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: He said to not only win a national championship, but

785
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: to win the Heisman Trophy.

786
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 2: He is actually saying.

787
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 4: It, that's a tall task.

788
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: I want to win the Heisman Trophy. Carson Beck, Georgia quarterback,

789
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: is my current number two. Here is my current number one.

790
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 2: Shuku Staff taken by shoot. He throws at white side.

791
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 8: Travis Hunt reaches up, makes the spectacular crowd touchdown, touchdown Colorado.

792
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 2: He's an alien, he's a freak, he's a new eat.

793
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 2: He's the best player in college football. And the Buffaloes

794
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,359
Speaker 2: take a ten point lead.

795
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: That's Mark Johnson Lairfield, and he's talking about the unbelievable.

796
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 1: He's like the sho hey Otania college football. We're talking

797
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: about Travis Hunter, who played fifty seven plays on offense,

798
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 1: seven catches over one hundred yards, three touchdowns. Oh yeah,

799
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: also played over seventy plays on defense at corners safety.

800
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: A little linebacker. Travis Hunter is ridiculous.

801
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 4: Great call by Mark Johnson because he was an alien.

802
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 4: The stuff he was doing out there was insane. That

803
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 4: catching the end zone with the guy literally on top

804
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 4: of him and he caught. I was like, how he's

805
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 4: an alien? But Steve, how can he be your number one?

806
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 4: When there's only been one Heisman winner that comes from

807
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 4: a losing team.

808
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 2: It sounds like, who's your daddy? You're giving me a question?

809
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 6: I did.

810
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well that was painted it.

811
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: That was Paul Horning's controversial winn in nineteen fifty six.

812
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: He was the quarterback in Notre Dame, had a phenomenal year,

813
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 1: but the team won two to eight and he ended

814
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 1: up winning the Heisman Trophy.

815
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 2: Look, they're one and zero.

816
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: Right now, Colorado, so as long as they're winning, it

817
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: is a big question. The other big question him is

818
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 1: just health. Remember his freshman year at Jackson State, he

819
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: missed time with injuries. Last year he missed time with injuries.

820
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: When you are playing over one hundred and twenty plays

821
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 1: in a game like he did against North Dakota State

822
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: to stay on the field is going to be difficult,

823
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 1: so it's an uphill climb. But again, the award says

824
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:12,720
Speaker 1: best college football player in the country, and.

825
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,760
Speaker 4: He's definitely proving that he is in one week.

826
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 2: Again he's the show.

827
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: Hey Otani at college football plays both It is insane,

828
00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: really is.

829
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 2: But can't he keep it up for a full season?

830
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: Look if Colorado goes seven and five and he puts

831
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 1: up big numbers on both sides of the football, yeah

832
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 1: he can win the Heisman.

833
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 2: If they go four and eight, it's gonna be tough.

834
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:35,919
Speaker 4: It's gonna be tough.

835
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: But he's got a lot of marque games on his

836
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,800
Speaker 1: Big twelve schedule. Now, remember Colorado now in the Big twelve,

837
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: so he'll have plenty of opportunities to showcase his talents.

838
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see it though.

839
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 6: Yeah.

840
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 4: No, it's gonna be an exciting season.

841
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 2: He is that good.

842
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: And so is this because we got more football coming up,

843
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: not just Saturday football, but Sunday football.

844

853
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 2: Got a lot of NFL news.

854
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,760
Speaker 1: To get to as we get ready for the start

855
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 1: of the NFL season, which of course will be next Thursday,

856
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: and we have a rematch the AFC Championship game between

857
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Ravens.

858
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 4: I can't believe it's already football season. It's very exciting.

859
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 4: It's very exciting because it goes by in the blink

860
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 4: of an eye.

861
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 1: That is the thing that I say. The problem with

862
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: football is it just it goes at such a rapid rate.

863
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: It is, and you know, unlike other sports, we have

864
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 1: multiple games during the week and there's just a lot

865
00:41:55,560 --> 00:42:00,839
Speaker 1: of forgettable games along the way. You know, the it's

866
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: an event, it is and every matter you know, it

867
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 1: really does. Because when you look at the NFL and

868
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,240
Speaker 1: we get down to the final week of the season,

869
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: you know, every we always had that playoff scenario for

870
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: that last wild card or wherever. It's like, well, if

871
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: this team wins, they're in, but if they lose, then

872
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,959
Speaker 1: this team they're in. And we like three or four

873
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: teams are lineup for like one slot, and then you

874
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: go back over the course of a seventeen game season

875
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: and you lose the game on a fumble. All bounces

876
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 1: the wrong way. I've said this many times, you know,

877
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: I used to say back in the sixteen game schedule,

878
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,800
Speaker 1: you have to understand there's not a lot of difference

879
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: between ten and six and six and ten. A few

880
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,799
Speaker 1: bounces either way with that weird shaped ball that you're

881
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: playing with can determine whether you make the playoffs or

882
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 1: coach getting fired. And now we have college football with

883
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 1: the expanded playoff this year. Now, I was watching Booger

884
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: McFarlane from ESPN. I think he does a great job.

885
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm being a fan, but he was not a fan

886
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 1: of the expanded playoff because he was making the argument

887
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 1: that when he had fewer playoff spots, you couldn't afford

888
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 1: a loss like what happened to Florida State in that

889
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: opening game against Georgia Tech. I mean, Florida State now

890
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: is like, all right, well that was bad but we

891
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: still have plenty of time to make up for that.

892
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 1: But in the other format, you're pretty much eliminated.

893
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

894
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 4: I remember hearing fans of teams we lost one game,

895
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 4: we're out. There's no chance, right, that was the mentality,

896
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,880
Speaker 4: and you're right. Now it is a little vity, not

897
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 4: that it's easier, but you can't lose a game and

898
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 4: not feel like it's the end.

899
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,719
Speaker 2: But here's the whole point that you have to understand.

900
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 1: If you look at the NFL now, I obviously the

901
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,800
Speaker 1: Chiefs have been dominant in recent but there are many

902
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: times over the history with the team that was not

903
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 1: considered the best team going into the playoffs ends up

904
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: becoming Super Bowl champions. Look at the Giants twice to

905
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

906
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 2: So that's the way playoffs work.

907
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 1: We see it in every sport where a team, you know,

908
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: gets hot at the right time. We've seen it in

909
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: the nca basketball tournament many times over the years, where

910
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 1: you look at the final four it's like, how did

911
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 1: this team get there? Or you know, how does this

912
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 1: team wins the national championship. So the question, I guess is,

913
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 1: you know, back when we had the BCS championship game.

914
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,319
Speaker 1: They were trying to determine the two best schools. And

915
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: we think about that all time classic between Texas and

916
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: USC when Vince Young scored the winning touchdown. I was

917
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 1: there at the Rose Bowl that night. It was an

918
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 1: unbelievable football game, right, And you're thinking, well, if there

919
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 1: had been a playoff, it's a possibility that one of

920
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 1: these teams might have been upset. So which do you

921
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: prefer mont see do you want to like at the

922
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 1: end of the year saying all right, these are the

923
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,880
Speaker 1: two best teams, or these are the four best teams,

924
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: or do you open the door for the possibility of

925
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: upsets along the way where you know you got twelve

926
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 1: schools and then the championship game is the number five

927
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: seed or the number four seed versus the number seven seed.

928
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 1: You know, like, oh, that's not really what I wanted

929
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,280
Speaker 1: to see.

930
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 4: I think there's pros and cons to both situations, but

931
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 4: I think I like it to be a little tougher.

932
00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,800
Speaker 4: I didn't like it when baseball added the wildcard teams

933
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 4: going into the playoffs. I didn't like it when the

934
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 4: NFL did it either, And I think but for college

935
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 4: football there's so many teams that it almost does make sense.

936
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 4: But I didn't like it when it happened in baseball

937
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 4: or in the NFL. I just was like, no, it

938
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 4: should be a little bit cutthrow. I like that better

939
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 4: cut throw. But with college football, I think this is good.

940
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 4: I think it'll work because there's been a lot of

941
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 4: teams that, like last year Florida Florida State, right, that

942
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,520
Speaker 4: didn't make it and everybody was so disappointed, grounded. They

943
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,399
Speaker 4: lost their quarterback, and I think that had a big

944
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,840
Speaker 4: reason why they weren't selected into going into that the

945
00:45:58,880 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 4: final four?

946
00:45:59,520 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 2: Was it, right?

947
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,920
Speaker 4: And I think with this there's gonna be less heartbreak

948
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 4: early on in the playoffs.

949
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 2: Here's the thing about Florida State last year.

950
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 1: Okay, so they were undefeated, right, and they were down

951
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: there their third string quarterback playing in the ACC Championship game,

952
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,800
Speaker 1: and they didn't get picked. But my thought was, forget

953
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 1: Florida State, what about Georgia. Georgia was number one the

954
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 1: entire season and Alabama pulls a miracle to beat him

955
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 1: in the SEC and they were sixth in the final.

956
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, whoaha, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa whoa, No, we

957
00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: all season long, we kept saying Georgia's in. They were

958
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,719
Speaker 1: undefeated the year before, they're undefeated this year. Even if

959
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: they lose to Alabama, Like, if they lose it, they're

960
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 1: going to be in the final.

961
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 2: You can.

962
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: They were like sixth in the final poll. I'm like, what, well,

963
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: Texas beat Alabama and Georgia loses to Alabama. Go, it's

964
00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: not like Alabama ran them out of the bill. It

965
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 1: was like a miracle fourth down play. How is Georgia

966
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: not one of the four best teams? So that part

967
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:10,439
Speaker 1: of it, to me, is eliminated, right.

968
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 4: It is eliminated, And that's a good thing.

969
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 1: I mean, if we're going to argue about who's the

970
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 1: twelve and thirteen down, there will be arguments, but I'm like,

971
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:17,800
Speaker 1: that's weak argument.

972
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,919
Speaker 4: At that point, the best of the best, the best

973
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 4: teams will be out there, you know.

974
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 2: So that's the good thing.

975
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 4: That's the good thing.

976
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 1: But the idea of an expanded playoff is simple. You

977
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 1: get upsets, asked the Dodgers. The last couple of years,

978
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,360
Speaker 1: you're you're getting you're losing opening series to teams that

979
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 1: you blew out in your own division. Yeah, in consecutive years,

980
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 1: and by the way, the Dodgers most likely will face

981
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 1: either the Padres of the Diamondbacks in the opening round

982
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 1: of this year's baseball player.

983
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:48,760
Speaker 4: I know baseball this year has been just a treat Yeah,

984
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 4: but that's the upsets happened, and I know in football

985
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 4: they happen.

986
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 2: It's different than like basketball.

987
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 4: Right, or even it's different than baseball. Is so weird

988
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 4: because you would think that the actual best team in

989
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 4: baseball because it's a series, but it's not like that.

990
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:05,439
Speaker 4: Like in basketball, the best team wins because it's a

991
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 4: seven game series, so typically the best team wins. But yeah,

992
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,399
Speaker 4: with baseball, march manis it's one game and you're done.

993
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 4: You have one bad game, you're unlucky.

994
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: Here's my favorite stat in baseball. The Florida slash Miami

995
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:20,399
Speaker 1: Marlins in their history, have won two World Series. They've

996
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,880
Speaker 1: never won a division type. Both years they won the

997
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 1: World Series, they came in as a wildcard team and

998
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 1: they've never won a division title. And yet they've won

999
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 1: two World Series.

1000
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1001
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:36,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, see in retrospect, here's the whole thing. You don't

1002
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: remember that. Here the frustration of college basketball coaches. You

1003
00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:41,839
Speaker 1: know why I would go to final fours A lot

1004
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 1: you interview coaches and they would get frustrated because they

1005
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:46,840
Speaker 1: have a thirty win season. Then they get upset in

1006
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 1: the tournament and suddenly the season is deemed a failure.

1007
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 1: It's like, we won our division, we won our conference tournament,

1008
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,480
Speaker 1: we won thirty games, and we get upset in the

1009
00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,760
Speaker 1: second round or the sweet sixth and we're a failure.

1010
00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:06,920
Speaker 1: And other coaches somehow have mediocre seasons, get hot in

1011
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: the tournament, show up at the final four, and everyone's

1012
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 1: singing their praise and they go, well, that's the nature

1013
00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:13,920
Speaker 1: of the sport. What have you done for me lately?

1014
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 1: So this is gonna happen. I mean the idea that

1015
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 1: whichever two schools are the one and two most people

1016
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,239
Speaker 1: think going into the year, the two best teams in

1017
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 1: the country are Georgia and Ohio State. Most people right

1018
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,120
Speaker 1: now and projecting how the season will end up, will

1019
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:36,040
Speaker 1: say Georgia and Ohio State. Well, that puts a lot

1020
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: of pressure on Kirby Smart and Ryan Day because if

1021
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 1: they don't get there, if they're the one two seeds

1022
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: and one of them gets upset along the way, they're

1023
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 1: gonna feel it. And we'll see how this plays out.

1024
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 1: Because if it happens year after year like that where

1025
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: suddenly a top seed or a second seed gets a

1026
00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 1: loss early and you end up with who in the

1027
00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: championship game.

1028
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:05,360
Speaker 4: With the twelve team playoff, are there buys?

1029
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 2: Yes? The first four they? So what is going Here's

1030
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 2: how it works.

1031
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 1: Remember we had five power conferences when they put this together,

1032
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 1: and now we only have four. So it's going to

1033
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: be the four highest ranked conference champion, the champions. So

1034
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 1: that now you look at the SEC, the Big Ten,

1035
00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 1: the Big twelve, and the ACC and then AA seed

1036
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 1: champion okay, unless Oregon State or Washington State undefeated, so

1037
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 1: that fifth seed who would not get a buy, it's

1038
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 1: the five highest ranked conference champions will be the top

1039
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 1: five seeds, and then you have seven at large bits okay, okay,

1040
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 1: So five plays, twelve, six plays, eleven, seven plays, ten,

1041
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: eight plays.

1042
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,360
Speaker 2: Nine top four seeds get a buy and then it

1043
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:51,319
Speaker 2: plays on from there.

1044
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:54,520
Speaker 4: Do you want to buy?

1045
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 2: That's another great question. Don't we talk about this in the.

1046
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,920
Speaker 1: How many times that we've seen teams wrap up their

1047
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 1: division title, rest players week seventeen and then get a

1048
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 1: buy on top of that, and then they show up

1049
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 1: and they're stale.

1050
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 4: There's yeah, so I do you even want to buy?

1051
00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking out loud here this new playoff format.

1052
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.

1053
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:22,480
Speaker 1: Keeping players healthy. Remember if you play in your conference

1054
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: championship game and then you're still like a five seed

1055
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 1: and then they maybe move all the way to the

1056
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,360
Speaker 1: champion that's a seventeen game season for these college kids.

1057
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:32,720
Speaker 2: It's a lot of football.

1058
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 4: That is a lot of football.

1059
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 1: They got to keep everyone healthy, all right. So that's

1060
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,320
Speaker 1: what we're looking at as we get this college football

1061
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: season underway, all right. Coming up on the other side,

1090
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 1: had they been using this extra time over the last

1091
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: couple of years to get themselves ready for Week one?

1092
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, they could focus more on the game plan, whereas

1093
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 6: when you had the fourth preseason game, you were doing

1094
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,800
Speaker 6: as coaches would tell me, you're doing half and half.

1095
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 6: You're getting ready for that last game where you're really

1096
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 6: evaluating the top, the bottom five to seven players and

1097
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,880
Speaker 6: now without that and it's a bye week, really, you

1098
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 6: just totally focus on the game plan. That first opponent,

1099
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 6: the Ravens and Chiefs, who play Thursday in Kansas City.

1100
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,880
Speaker 6: You know they started earlier because they have to play earlier.

1101
00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 6: Then you got the Packers Eagles game in Brazil. First

1102
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 6: time we've ever had a game in Brazil. So talking

1103
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 6: to coaches, it's a little bit more time. They actually

1104
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,279
Speaker 6: like not having that I could. I could tell you

1105
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:59,839
Speaker 6: as much as they need the tape to get an

1106
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:01,840
Speaker 6: idea of who should be on the rester who shouldn't,

1107
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,960
Speaker 6: they really like the fact that they get this extra practice.

1108
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 6: Tom They've never had that before. It's been four years now.

1109
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 6: It's a good thing, Adam.

1110
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:12,240
Speaker 4: So the Steelers are opening up the season against the Falcons,

1111
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 4: and something that I haven't been able to understand what

1112
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:17,319
Speaker 4: exactly Mike Tomlin meant when he was on the Rich

1113
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 4: Eisen Show. He said, my friend Raheem Morris better be

1114
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 4: ready for a justin fields package. There's too much talent

1115
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:31,480
Speaker 4: to be sitting around watching what he's So basically, you

1116
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 4: see what I'm confused.

1117
00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 6: So what happens here is in training camp it could

1118
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 6: be third down, it could be first in goal at

1119
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 6: to ten. Justin Fields came on the field. It's sort

1120
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,960
Speaker 6: of a change up quarterback. You know, you remember many

1121
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 6: years ago the wildcat quarterback started with the Dolphins in

1122
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 6: the late Tony Sperano. You're going to see something with

1123
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:54,320
Speaker 6: Justin Fields. It's called the Justin Fields package. They it's

1124
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 6: a specialty. At some point in a game, they're going

1125
00:54:57,960 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 6: to put him on the field. I was actually talked

1126
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 6: to so with the Steelers about that, how because the

1127
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 6: media saw it, so it's not a secret. They actually

1128
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 6: saw it in training camp. So that's going to happen.

1129
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:07,440
Speaker 2: Now.

1130
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 6: You know the Steeers didn't get Brandon Ayuk. They're really

1131
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 6: hurting opposite George Pickens. It's gonna be Van Jefferson, the

1132
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:16,760
Speaker 6: former Falcon to play for Arthur Smith, the Steelers offensive

1133
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,760
Speaker 6: coordinator in Atlanta. He'll be He'll be starting opposite Pickens.

1134
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 6: Robin Wilson, I'm told the rookie receiver Michigan third round

1135
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 6: he's got a high ankle sprain, so he's very iffy.

1136
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 6: I'd be surprised if he played. He hasn't practiced in

1137
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 6: over four weeks. So they're really light there. That's that's

1138
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,440
Speaker 6: a problem, and they're gonna be run based anyway, but

1139
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,600
Speaker 6: you know that's the problem as they play the Falcons

1140
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 6: this coming week.

1141
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: Last week on our Sunday show, Adam, we were breaking

1142
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 1: down the AFC, and obviously the Chiefs are the Kings,

1143
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 1: but we're trying to figure out who's the next best team.

1144
00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 1: I have a sense that Joe Burrow's gonna have a

1145
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:54,600
Speaker 1: healthy season. Remember last year, he didn't start the season healthy,

1146
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,080
Speaker 1: then he started to get healthy, and then he obviously

1147
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 1: got hurt again. I believe that if Joe Burrow is

1148
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:05,360
Speaker 1: healthy for seventeen games, start seventeen games for the Bengals,

1149
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: that they are the prime threat in the AFC to

1150
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,319
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. How do you believe it shakes out in

1151
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 1: terms of the second best team in that conference?

1152
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 6: All right, I'm going to surprise you with this one.

1153
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 6: Half of its surprising, and half of you might say, I, well,

1154
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:23,320
Speaker 6: I could see whether it be much better. But the

1155
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 6: Jets have arguably the NFL's best defense. They really don't

1156
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:29,080
Speaker 6: have weakness, and they're still hopeful Son Reddick will come

1157
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:33,200
Speaker 6: to senses and reports so they could least redo this

1158
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 6: final year of its contract, so it coul at least

1159
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,480
Speaker 6: make up that money that he lost well over two

1160
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 6: million fines. But their defense is phenomenal. Really, they don't

1161
00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:45,480
Speaker 6: really have a weakness getting Aaron Rodgers back. I could

1162
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 6: just tell you what being the Jets recently, they have

1163
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 6: not had a good offensive line in years.

1164
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:52,359
Speaker 2: They actually have some depth.

1165
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,240
Speaker 6: There was a running joke with their coaches that every

1166
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:58,480
Speaker 6: backup that they had last year on the roster started

1167
00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:01,760
Speaker 6: a game because of injury. And now these guys are backups.

1168
00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,080
Speaker 6: So it's a good thing. They're going to get Mike

1169
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 6: Williams back, the former Charger receiver. I'm told that he'll

1170
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:08,400
Speaker 6: be in a limited snap count early on, but he

1171
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:12,400
Speaker 6: will be able to play early on. Brice Hall. You're

1172
00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:14,759
Speaker 6: now two years from the ACL injury. This is a

1173
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 6: really good roster. They absolutely when you have a great defense.

1174
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:22,840
Speaker 6: And now the only asterisk is is Rogers going to

1175
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:25,080
Speaker 6: play as well as he did before the Achilles injury.

1176
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 6: Now I know he had a great training camp they

1177
00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 6: thought he look it's just as good, if not better

1178
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,040
Speaker 6: than last year's training camp. But he is forty one

1179
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 6: years old. We have to understand that. But other than that, guys.

1180
00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 6: I go through the AFC and it's a fair question.

1181
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,360
Speaker 6: Cincinnati's got some major question marks of the secondary. You're

1182
00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 6: a pretty good defensive line. Offensive line is better always

1183
00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:47,080
Speaker 6: a struggle. It's a little better, it's still just okay.

1184
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,760
Speaker 6: Now here's another one for you, Steve. I know Jamar

1185
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 6: Chase has been there, but he's on the Brandon Value planet.

1186
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 6: What kind of game shape is he in?

1187
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 2: We don't know that.

1188
00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, who do you have more

1189
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:59,960
Speaker 1: trust in twenty twenty four as a quarterback?

1190
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow Aaron Rodgers. It's a fair question.

1191
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 6: Now Burrow, coming off of he's actually his third major

1192
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 6: injury he's had the ACL was the worst one who

1193
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 6: to have more trust in. I get Burrow because he's

1194
00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 6: way younger and he does have good mobility when he's healthy.

1195
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 6: But this is a good one. I I you know,

1196
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:23,280
Speaker 6: I hadn't even thought of this. I would rank him

1197
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 6: if we had a rank one through. Give me you know,

1198
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,280
Speaker 6: if we had to rank the playoff teams like Gokse one,

1199
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:36,960
Speaker 6: Jets two, Bengals three, maybe the Dolphins, Dolphins, maybe Texans

1200
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:38,720
Speaker 6: because we're going to pick them to win the division,

1201
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:41,320
Speaker 6: then Dolphins so no, I'm sorry, I got I got

1202
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,160
Speaker 6: it with Baltimore's in my top three or four. The

1203
00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,440
Speaker 6: only thing with the Ravens is, Guys, this is not

1204
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 6: talked about enough. They've got a first time defensive coordinator

1205
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:51,520
Speaker 6: in zach Or who's very young. He's the youngest coordinator

1206
00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:55,360
Speaker 6: in the NFL. Thirty two play callings and art we

1207
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 6: just don't know. I mean, he's only been been in

1208
00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 6: position code for a couple of years. This is a

1209
00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 6: big deal here. With the Ravens I would have in

1210
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:04,400
Speaker 6: my top four, I would not put him in my

1211
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:05,120
Speaker 6: top two or three.

1212
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 4: Do you think Jamar Chason the Bengals are gonna get

1213
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 4: a deal done before the season started.

1214
00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 6: What I'm told is there's a possibility that they don't

1215
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 6: want to extend his contract to thirty million a year.

1216
00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 6: They've made that pretty clear.

1217
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 4: Doesn't he want one more cent than Justin Jefferson?

1218
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 6: But see the thing is he wants more than that. No,

1219
00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 6: he wants he wants that contract. But in terms of

1220
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:27,240
Speaker 6: they really want to wait till next.

1221
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 2: Year, right because he has two years left. Yeah, they

1222
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:32,240
Speaker 2: don't want to do it. They're old, super old school.

1223
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:35,800
Speaker 6: Mike Brown is I'll give Mike Brown credit and the

1224
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 6: reason why they've turned this around for a number of

1225
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 6: years under Zach Taylor once he decided to stay out

1226
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 6: of personnel and actually spend some money in scouting. So

1227
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,360
Speaker 6: I've been covering this league so long. Their coaches were

1228
00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,000
Speaker 6: their scouts more or less. They didn't really have a

1229
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:55,160
Speaker 6: scouting department. It's sympathetic, it was, But Mike, they're not

1230
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 6: a cast rich team. They're just not like the Cowboys

1231
00:59:57,520 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 6: and others, and they really don't want to spend that

1232
01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 6: type of money right now. Now, what they could do

1233
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 6: to make sure that everything goes off without a hitch

1234
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 6: is they could the fifth year that you don't have

1235
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 6: to worry aout the fifthe option. Now, as you mentioned,

1236
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 6: you got two years left, but they certainly could redo

1237
01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:17,560
Speaker 6: that this this fourth year to make to make him happy,

1238
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 6: just to just show some respect. Now you made the point,

1239
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 6: remember Jefferson from the twenty twenty draft, Ceedee Lamb from

1240
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 6: the twenty twenty twenty draft. So that that's the thing

1241
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 6: that Chase needs to understand. But it's tough. I get

1242
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:34,800
Speaker 6: I You've just got his deal done. Now that that

1243
01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:37,680
Speaker 6: one was fascinating. It's one of the strangest contractual situations

1244
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 6: I've ever seen. I mean not folks. He should have

1245
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 6: been traded. He really should have been traded. I mean,

1246
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:43,919
Speaker 6: if you really knew some of this.

1247
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:44,640
Speaker 2: Is out there, some is not.

1248
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 6: All he had to do is say yes, he was

1249
01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:51,080
Speaker 6: traded to a contract extension with Cleveland. Cleveland was all

1250
01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,400
Speaker 6: set to go. But this is the bizarre bizarreness of

1251
01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 6: that situation.

1252
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,760
Speaker 1: Well, speaking of bizarre, Jerry Jones has made up his

1253
01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:01,000
Speaker 1: mind no contract extension for Dak Prest. So how does

1254
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:02,400
Speaker 1: this affect the Cowboys season?

1255
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:06,320
Speaker 6: Well, look, he he's going to be first all Steve,

1256
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 6: You're looking at a starting point of sixty million a year, right, Okay,

1257
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:13,920
Speaker 6: and that's the that's the floor. The ceiling could be

1258
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 6: sixty five to sixty eight. It's just this is ridiculous.

1259
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 6: Now they have the cash, folks to do this. Now

1260
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:23,840
Speaker 6: they got the Michael Parson situation, it's another one.

1261
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 2: How's it play out?

1262
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,160
Speaker 6: He's going to play this? I still maybe I'm in

1263
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:31,200
Speaker 6: the minority. I still think he's gonna be a Cowboy.

1264
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 6: Why would you want to rebuild when you have your

1265
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:35,560
Speaker 6: guy who you got right in that draft and twenty

1266
01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:38,800
Speaker 6: sixteen is a fourth round pick. Teams just don't walk

1267
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 6: away from the step of quarterbacks. It's not it's one thing, folks.

1268
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,720
Speaker 6: If you've been injury prone, been playing poorly, then I

1269
01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:45,600
Speaker 6: get it you might want.

1270
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:45,960
Speaker 2: To walk away.

1271
01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,640
Speaker 1: I played poorly in that playoff game home against Green Bay.

1272
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, but you know what that that's not the way

1273
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 6: you look at it.

1274
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,840
Speaker 2: But Jerry Jones, look at the clock is ticking on Jerry.

1275
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 1: It's been almost thirty years, not only winning a super Bowl,

1276
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,240
Speaker 1: how about getting into a conference championship game.

1277
01:01:58,280 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 2: And if he's not, if.

1278
01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:02,160
Speaker 1: He's a then I've got all these pieces here and

1279
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 1: I can replace that.

1280
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:07,120
Speaker 2: Guy with what Stevie look at it.

1281
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:08,840
Speaker 1: I'm not that, but I mean that's got to be

1282
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 1: his mentality or else he would pay the price right

1283
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 1: now and give Dak that extension.

1284
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:15,320
Speaker 2: But he's not going to do that.

1285
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:16,920
Speaker 6: He just don't want to spend the money. He just

1286
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 6: he wants to He wants to wait. He wants to

1287
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 6: do everything on his terms. Someone has dealt with Jerry.

1288
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:25,480
Speaker 6: A personal executive told me that you got to do

1289
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:29,040
Speaker 6: everything on his terms despite him giving him up a

1290
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 6: little bit more. Yes, he is personnel control. He does

1291
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 6: whatever he wants Will McClay. They're great personnel director. He

1292
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,440
Speaker 6: gives a little bit more deference to those guys, but

1293
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,680
Speaker 6: in the end he does everything on his terms and

1294
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:45,200
Speaker 6: he look he heyay, he paid a little bit less

1295
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:46,920
Speaker 6: than Justin Jefferson Cede Lamb.

1296
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 2: Think about it, folks, if they would have.

1297
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:50,360
Speaker 6: Stepped up to the play last year and paid him

1298
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 6: twenty seven million like like CD one and last year

1299
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 6: would have gotten done and they paid more a year.

1300
01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:56,919
Speaker 2: Later, way more.

1301
01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:59,160
Speaker 4: He doesn't want to pay Dak, but if Dak has

1302
01:02:59,200 --> 01:02:59,920
Speaker 4: a great year, he's go.

1303
01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 2: It's stupid.

1304
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just it's really remarkable. And agents love Jerry

1305
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 6: by the way, just so you know this, They love

1306
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 6: it because they love that he waits almost always.

1307
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:11,800
Speaker 2: It's very rare.

1308
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,040
Speaker 6: He screwed up on des Bryant's final extension. He waited,

1309
01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 6: He waited and waited, seek Elliot's least extension. And this

1310
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 6: this Michael parsonstelefik Get's ton it's going to be.

1311
01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:23,040
Speaker 2: Historic, unbelievable stuff.

Speaker 1: Radio NFL Insider. Now, let's find out what is trending.

1324
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:54,800
Speaker 1: It's been a very busy day in college football, and

1325
01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 1: Martin's been all over it.

1326
01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:57,480
Speaker 2: That's true.

1327
01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:59,960
Speaker 7: At the University Alabama and the number fifth three team

1328
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 7: in a nation. Right now, ten minutes left in the

1329
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 7: first quarter, Jalen Milroe just had a rushing touchdown. He's

1330
01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:08,280
Speaker 7: now scored seven to nothing Bama.

1331
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 2: TJ. Finley, the quarterback for Western Kentucky. He's been all

1332
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 2: around college football.

1333
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 7: Remember Auburn and one other place in between, Texas State.

1334
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 2: I believe in between there. TJ.

1335
01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 7: Finley right now with an interception so far for Western Kentucky.

1336
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 7: He earlier said, I said earlier today, you know this

1337
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:27,320
Speaker 7: is not your uh, you know your grandfather's Western Kentucky

1338
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 7: say they will go and compete in this game. So

1339
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,360
Speaker 7: we'll see how that works out. What do you think

1340
01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:35,920
Speaker 7: Steve giving Western Kentucky a shot? No, but.

1341
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,400
Speaker 1: This is I mean, what kind of season Alabama's going

1342
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:43,240
Speaker 1: to have with Debor I mean you talk about pressure.

1343
01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 7: How about following up Nick Saban? I mean that's you'd

1344
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 7: like to be supposed to be the guy that follows

1345
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:51,880
Speaker 7: the guy. I'm pretty sure Nick Saban is capital T,

1346
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:53,080
Speaker 7: capitol G the guy.

1347
01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:56,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you're not following him. You're starting out right.

1348
01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:58,320
Speaker 2: Well, if you look at the numbers, he's the goat.

1349
01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:03,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Nobody anywhere in the history college football ever did

1350
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 1: what he did at Alabama. Okay, exclude LSU, where he

1351
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:09,840
Speaker 1: did win a national championship. Obviously Michigan stayed back in

1352
01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,200
Speaker 1: the day. But if you just look at his Alabama run,

1353
01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:16,640
Speaker 1: there's nobody close, nobody.

1354
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:19,439
Speaker 7: I don't think you found much argument here. Yeah, sixth

1355
01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:21,520
Speaker 7: rane team in the nation, Ole miss with a fourteen

1356
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,400
Speaker 7: nothing lead over Furman with just under six minutes left

1357
01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:26,640
Speaker 7: in the first half. Jackson Dart I'm sorry in the

1358
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:29,400
Speaker 7: first quarter. The reason why I thought first half because

1359
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 7: Jackson Darts numbers. He's got one seventy one yards through

1360
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:36,080
Speaker 7: the air, a one touchdown so far, carry for fifteen

1361
01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 7: yards on a touchdown as well. Eighteenth three Kansas Stay

1362
01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 7: with the fourteen nothing lead over UT Martin midway through

1363
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 7: the first quarter, and Michigan just kicking off to defending

1364
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:48,200
Speaker 7: national champion Michigan Wolverines, ninth three team in the nation

1365
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 7: just kicking off against Fresno State. Earlier today, we saw

1366
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:54,120
Speaker 7: a bunch of top twenty five teams in action. One

1367
01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:56,160
Speaker 7: team probably won't be in the top twenty five anymore

1368
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:56,560
Speaker 7: after this.

1369
01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1370
01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,400
Speaker 7: I might be a sharp drop, but number fourteen rate

1371
01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,560
Speaker 7: Clemson got pounded today by the number one overall team

1372
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:03,080
Speaker 7: in the nation.

1373
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 2: Georgia, thirty four to three.

1374
01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:08,560
Speaker 7: The Bulldogs beat the Tigers Carson Beck two hundred eighty

1375
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:12,000
Speaker 7: seven yards passing two touchdowns. Ohio State, the second ranked

1376
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:15,040
Speaker 7: team in the nation, fifty two six over Akron Will

1377
01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 7: Howard with three passing touchdowns, two of them to freshman

1378
01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:21,280
Speaker 7: Jeremiah Smith. Fourth rank Texas beat Colorado State fifty two

1379
01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 7: to nothing. A rank Penn State beat West Virginia thirty

1380
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,480
Speaker 7: four to twelve. Tennessee, the fifteenth th eighteen in the nation,

1381
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:31,080
Speaker 7: hung sixty nine on Chattanooga, who managed a field goal

1382
01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:34,040
Speaker 7: six to nine. To three the final, Oklahoma State forty four,

1383
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:38,360
Speaker 7: South Dakota State twenty in Iowa. All right, how many

1384
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,480
Speaker 7: times Iowa scored forty points today?

1385
01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:41,160
Speaker 6: What?

1386
01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:44,080
Speaker 2: Yes, that's more than they scored all of last season.

1387
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:45,680
Speaker 7: That's how I was about that. How many weeks will

1388
01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:48,040
Speaker 7: it take from today on? Because they beat Illinois State.

1389
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:50,400
Speaker 7: Shout out to the Red Bird. They tried their best, right,

1390
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:52,920
Speaker 7: But now Iowa, the twenty fifth ranth team in the

1391
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 7: nation forty points today? How many more weeks will it

1392
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:58,560
Speaker 7: take for Iowa have scored forty points?

1393
01:06:58,840 --> 01:06:59,960
Speaker 2: Well? Think about last year.

1394
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 1: They were one twenty nine out of one thirty amongst

1395
01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:08,120
Speaker 1: FBS schools in total offense last year and they won

1396
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:08,800
Speaker 1: ten games.

1397
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,400
Speaker 2: I mean, Kirk Ferrence, I don't know how you do it.

1398
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:17,400
Speaker 1: But forty points, I mean, that's three weeks.

1399
01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 2: But it's the most offense they've had in like six years.

1400
01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 2: I saw all bunch of life. I don't know if

1401
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 2: that's a sign of things to come. It couldn't get

1402
01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:25,920
Speaker 2: much worse. But they still were able to win all

1403
01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:26,840
Speaker 2: those games last year.

1404
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:30,439
Speaker 7: They got Iowa State, Troy, and Minnesota. They might get

1405
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:33,040
Speaker 7: to forty by the fifth week of the season, when

1406
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:34,080
Speaker 7: they play Ohio State.

1407
01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:38,920
Speaker 1: They might nothing five weeks to score forty and then

1408
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:40,760
Speaker 1: they'll put a forty on Ohio State.

1409
01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:43,840
Speaker 2: You'd be happy about that, wouldn't you, You know what

1410
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:45,520
Speaker 2: a little bit.

1411
01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:48,480
Speaker 7: But I almost would rather Ohio State be like perfectly

1412
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:51,800
Speaker 7: undefeated than lose to Michigan and then see I love

1413
01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 7: what you say.

1414
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:54,760
Speaker 1: I used to say this as UCLA guy, you know,

1415
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:58,680
Speaker 1: like I root it for USC, okay, because my attitude

1416
01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: is if US is good and we beat them, it

1417
01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:04,000
Speaker 1: means that much more, right, Yeah, it does.

1418
01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:04,680
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're.

1419
01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:08,000
Speaker 1: Ohio State Michigan fans, you want that game to decide

1420
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 1: you know something, Well, it.

1421
01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 7: Doesn't decide anything anymore because they ruin the playoff. But

1422
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 7: I know, well what I mean, Like I gay, Like

1423
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 7: I said, best case scenario, Ohio State is undefeated going

1424
01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 7: into Michigan, loses to Michigan.

1425
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,360
Speaker 2: Do you realize this, we were talking about this.

1426
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 1: If Ohio State and Michigan are both undefeated, yes, going

1427
01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 1: into that game, the winner goes on to win the

1428
01:08:29,960 --> 01:08:33,200
Speaker 1: conference championship, they'll be a top four seed. The best

1429
01:08:33,200 --> 01:08:35,600
Speaker 1: seeding that the loser of that game will have is

1430
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:39,400
Speaker 1: a sixth seed. Yeah, that's the highest they can be

1431
01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:43,840
Speaker 1: seeded because the top five conference champions would could be

1432
01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 1: an AAC conference champion would be the top five seeds.

1433
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 1: And then so you could be the second best team

1434
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:52,240
Speaker 1: in the country and still.

1435
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 2: Be the sixth seed. That's why I'm in the tournament.

1436
01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 7: Ohio States undefeated, drop to six and then lose to

1437
01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:00,599
Speaker 7: like the fourth best team in the See who ends

1438
01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:01,920
Speaker 7: up being that twelve team?

1439
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:02,720
Speaker 2: The twelfth team?

1440
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:05,479
Speaker 7: An you know, there you go, Auburn goes all new

1441
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 7: to us, Auburn goes and you know, hangs a bunch

1442
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:09,200
Speaker 7: on ITM that'd be crazy, look at it'd be amazing.

1443
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:12,080
Speaker 2: All right, Martin, thank you very much. Very busy day.

1444
01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,599
Speaker 1: Martin's got his own show coming up here shortly. Once again,

1445
01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:16,880
Speaker 1: we're live from the ti iraq dot com studios.

1446
01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:17,839
Speaker 2: So Monci.

1447
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 1: He mentioned Clemson getting boat raced today by George, especially

1448
01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:23,479
Speaker 1: in the second half. It was a postgame at halftime.

1449
01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:26,320
Speaker 1: Clemson's defense I thought control the line of scrimmage in

1450
01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:28,599
Speaker 1: the first half, but second half they got run over.

1451
01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:32,439
Speaker 1: Thirty four to three was the final. So Dabos Sweeney

1452
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:35,240
Speaker 1: has made it clear that he has no interest in

1453
01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:38,839
Speaker 1: this transfer portal. In fact, he hasn't had a single

1454
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:43,000
Speaker 1: player through the transfer portal start a game since the

1455
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:46,719
Speaker 1: thing started six years ago. Now his reasoning is this, Monci.

1456
01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:51,519
Speaker 1: He says, the problem with bringing in twenty or thirty

1457
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:55,080
Speaker 1: new guys Colorado is over forty this year through the

1458
01:09:55,080 --> 01:10:00,240
Speaker 1: transfer portal is that it doesn't breed chemistry.

1459
01:10:00,360 --> 01:10:00,760
Speaker 5: Mm hmm.

1460
01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:04,200
Speaker 1: That you get all these different guys from different program

1461
01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:06,040
Speaker 1: I remember Lane Kiffin at ole Miss a couple of

1462
01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:09,200
Speaker 1: years ago. They had something like twenty twenty five transfers

1463
01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 1: coming in and he was asked, you know, how.

1464
01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:14,519
Speaker 2: Do you feel about this? He goes, I have no idea.

1465
01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:19,040
Speaker 1: You got guys coming from distrant systems, from different programs

1466
01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,960
Speaker 1: all over the country, and now I got to immediately

1467
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:25,760
Speaker 1: put these college kids all on the same page at

1468
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:30,040
Speaker 1: the same time. So Dabo Sweeney's argument is I don't

1469
01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:33,120
Speaker 1: want to do that. I will build my system with

1470
01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 1: the players I recruit high school players. You know, we

1471
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:38,639
Speaker 1: might have a player here or player there to fill

1472
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 1: a need, but most important to me is chemistry, and

1473
01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 1: I can't do that if I'm bringing in guys from

1474
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:48,639
Speaker 1: all these different programs from around the country.

1475
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,479
Speaker 4: I understand what he's saying, because you think it does

1476
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,640
Speaker 4: make sense chemistry, you've been working together for more than

1477
01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:57,880
Speaker 4: a year, You're gonna be able to play better than

1478
01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 4: a team that was just put together. Right, But clearly

1479
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:06,679
Speaker 4: times are changing in college football, and if he cannot

1480
01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:10,400
Speaker 4: adjust or prove that his theory of chemistry is better

1481
01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:14,519
Speaker 4: than the transfer portal, then he needs to retire. Nick

1482
01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:16,519
Speaker 4: Saban didn't want to deal with all this new stuff

1483
01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:20,000
Speaker 4: in college football for that very reason transfer portal, and

1484
01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:22,439
Speaker 4: he didn't want to deal with any of that. You

1485
01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 4: kind of have to adjust with what's happening in front

1486
01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:27,880
Speaker 4: of you. You have to do it. And with today's game,

1487
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:29,920
Speaker 4: I know it was just Week one, but that was

1488
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,320
Speaker 4: not a good showcase for Clemson.

1489
01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:34,800
Speaker 1: Well, I guess the argument about today's game is you're

1490
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:37,120
Speaker 1: playing the number one team in the country now has

1491
01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:41,280
Speaker 1: won forty consecutive regular season games, So should we I mean, yeah,

1492
01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:44,160
Speaker 1: it was it scored a field goal. Yeah, the offense

1493
01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:47,280
Speaker 1: was horrific. I mean, when you go from Deshaun Watson

1494
01:11:47,360 --> 01:11:51,600
Speaker 1: to Trevor Lawrence and then obviously dj Ouyungalila did not

1495
01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:55,440
Speaker 1: work out, and now suddenly Clemson has lost their offense,

1496
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 1: it's not a good sign. I wouldn't judge it solely

1497
01:11:57,880 --> 01:11:59,400
Speaker 1: on one game. We'll see how they play on their

1498
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:03,439
Speaker 1: ACCS schedule. But you're one hundred percent right when you say, like,

1499
01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:07,120
Speaker 1: if you're not taking advantage of the transfer portal when

1500
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:11,080
Speaker 1: everybody else is, that's coaching suicide a little bit.

1501
01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 4: And it's like, we're not asking you to have a

1502
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:14,600
Speaker 4: brand new team every single time, but how are you

1503
01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:17,559
Speaker 4: not taking advantage of the transfer portal when it's there

1504
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:18,440
Speaker 4: at your disposal?

1505
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,920
Speaker 1: Well, also, your players are not going to honor your deal,

1506
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 1: not at all. I think like Nick Saban's biggest frustration

1507
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,839
Speaker 1: wasn't trying to recruit players here the transfer portal.

1508
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:29,439
Speaker 2: It was losing players.

1509
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you bring in a five star freshman who

1510
01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 1: maybe gets shared some time their first year, which would

1511
01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:39,639
Speaker 1: be normal, and then they're like, I've got an offer

1512
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:44,080
Speaker 1: to go elsewhere. It's like, what are you talking about, Like, no,

1513
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:46,400
Speaker 1: you're going to start this year. You know, we got

1514
01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:48,200
Speaker 1: to your feet wet, and he's like, no, this is

1515
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:52,120
Speaker 1: a better opportunity. That was what was really irking Nick

1516
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 1: Saban is losing players through the transfer portal.

1517
01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:56,439
Speaker 4: Which is that kind of We started the show right

1518
01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:58,599
Speaker 4: that college football is a little bit different with nil

1519
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:02,200
Speaker 4: and all that stuff different. So it's like with knowing

1520
01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:05,400
Speaker 4: that that's what Nick Saban didn't like about it, Dablo

1521
01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:08,880
Speaker 4: Sweeney needs to realize that it's like your chemistry that

1522
01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 4: might no longer be a thing, whether you like it

1523
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:12,519
Speaker 4: or not.

1524
01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:13,280
Speaker 2: So comes there.

1525
01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 4: You can try, you can try and keep whatever you

1526
01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:19,320
Speaker 4: want together. But now there's all these options for these

1527
01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:21,680
Speaker 4: young paid athletes.

1528
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 1: I mean, look at Oregon, right you you lose Bonix

1529
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:28,479
Speaker 1: who had five years as a starter, and you get

1530
01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel who's already had five years. Dylan Gabriel has

1531
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,559
Speaker 1: already thrown for almost fifteen thousand yards in his career.

1532
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:39,880
Speaker 1: This is his sixth year. So if you're Oregon, why

1533
01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:43,719
Speaker 1: would you not take the opportunity to bring in someone

1534
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:47,000
Speaker 1: with that level of experience. Yeah, especially moving into the

1535
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:49,120
Speaker 1: Big ten. So we'll see how it play us out

1536
01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:51,559
Speaker 1: for Dabo. But yeah, I get a sense said, if

1537
01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:54,040
Speaker 1: you're going to try to go old school in this

1538
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 1: new age of college football, you're gonna get left behind.

1539
01:13:56,600 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, this isn't the.

1540
01:13:57,320 --> 01:13:57,960
Speaker 2: Hill to die on.

1541
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:00,920
Speaker 4: Chemistry matters is the hill to die on?

1542
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:03,880
Speaker 2: Well, they had they can all share in that route.

1543
01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:07,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they'll have that chemistry going into their second game.

1544
01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:09,559
Speaker 2: All right, what kind of a week is it gonna be?

1545
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna take a look ahead at the college football Saturday, Sunday, Monday.

1546
01:14:16,439 --> 01:14:18,440

1565
01:15:28,320 --> 01:15:31,120
Speaker 1: mile run this morning before she got in. So I

1566
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:33,759
Speaker 1: had to make a decision on this heisman the return

1567
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:37,599
Speaker 1: of the Heisman countdown, and that meant know, who's your daddy?

01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:38,719

Speaker 1: I'm obviously a very enjoyable segment for me Who's your Daddy?

1574
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 1: But I just I felt like I needed to make

1575
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:54,719
Speaker 1: this decision.

1576
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:57,479
Speaker 4: No, you just made the decision without me, And it's fine.

1577
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,760
Speaker 1: It's fine the way you just said that, it's not

1578
01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:05,719
Speaker 1: and I can understand that. Yeah, I've heard that before,

1579
01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:08,519
Speaker 1: but yeah, no, I know it's okay, it's fine, but

1580
01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:08,920
Speaker 1: it is.

1581
01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 6: It is.

1582
01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:12,559
Speaker 4: You're right Fox Football Saturday. You are not incorrect about that.

1583
01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:15,559
Speaker 1: So you know, like, well, it's only going to get

1584
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,559
Speaker 1: crazier with Fox Football Saturday because once we get NFL

1585
01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:20,320
Speaker 1: football going forget.

1586
01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:22,160
Speaker 4: It, right, And you know, I'm not Dablo Sweeney. I

1587
01:16:22,160 --> 01:16:23,559
Speaker 4: can adjust to what's in front of me.

1588
01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:24,280
Speaker 2: No, you can't.

1589
01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:25,439
Speaker 4: I can't. So we're good.

1590
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:30,280
Speaker 1: Well, next Saturday, obviously we'll have NFL football already to

1591
01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 1: talk about it and start Thursday Chiefs Ravens and you know,

1592
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 1: we go back to that AFC Championship game and Carrie

1593
01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:41,880
Speaker 1: Rhodes was sitting with me leading into that AFC Championship

1594
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:44,720
Speaker 1: game and he of course went to Louisville. He was

1595
01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 1: personal friends to Lamar Jackson. I said, all right, so,

1596
01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:51,599
Speaker 1: I mean the last thing we know that the Ravens

1597
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 1: wanted to put Lamar Jackson, the league's MVP, into a shootout,

1598
01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:59,720
Speaker 1: a passing shootout with Patrick Mahomes like, and he assured me,

1599
01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: will not see that. And in what was basically a

1600
01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:07,360
Speaker 1: one score game, the entire game, he was throwing more

1601
01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:11,080
Speaker 1: passes than Mahmes. It just was the worst game plan,

1602
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,280
Speaker 1: especially considering it was for a ticket to the super

1603
01:17:14,320 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 1: Bowl that I've ever seen.

1604
01:17:15,840 --> 01:17:16,599
Speaker 2: And what was shot.

1605
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:20,160
Speaker 1: This is John Harbaugh, this is a super Bowl winning coach.

1606
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it.

1607
01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:25,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they change it like they just kept doing it.

1608
01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:27,080
Speaker 2: They just kept throwing the It.

1609
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:27,719
Speaker 3: Was the word.

1610
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:29,760
Speaker 4: It's like, why are we not changing the game plan

1611
01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 4: that's not working.

1612
01:17:31,120 --> 01:17:34,839
Speaker 1: Look, if you're down two touchdowns seventeen points, I get

1613
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:38,160
Speaker 1: it was never that. So it was I'm very interested

1614
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 1: about this game on Thursday. I have a sense that

1615
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:44,519
Speaker 1: the Ravens could surprise in this game.

1616
01:17:44,720 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I do too.

1617
01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:49,240
Speaker 4: I'm really curious to see how they're going to utilize

1618
01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:53,000
Speaker 4: Derrick Henry along with Lamar Jackson. That is what's interesting

1619
01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:55,479
Speaker 4: about the Ravens this year, because now you're not just

1620
01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:58,080
Speaker 4: worried about one. Now you gotta worry about two. And

1621
01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:00,800
Speaker 4: I do think that they could surprise. It sweek one

1622
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:02,080
Speaker 4: with the Chiefs.

1623
01:18:02,479 --> 01:18:04,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I look at if the Ravens do win this game.

1624
01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:08,040
Speaker 1: It's not like, you know, let's rite the Chiefs obituary.

1625
01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:09,880
Speaker 2: Oh no, not at all, not at all.

1626
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:12,800
Speaker 4: But yeah, I saw sweet one last year. Didn't they

1627
01:18:12,960 --> 01:18:13,960
Speaker 4: against the Lions?

1628
01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:16,000
Speaker 2: Yeah? I was like, didn't they did?

1629
01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:16,640
Speaker 7: They did?

1630
01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:18,720
Speaker 4: It was against the Lions Week one, Yeah they did.

1631
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:21,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, Week one is not going

1632
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:23,560
Speaker 1: to you know, make a break a season, especially for

1633
01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:25,760
Speaker 1: a team like the Chiefs. But yeah, I think that

1634
01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:29,200
Speaker 1: hopefully the Ravens have a completely different game plan. Like

1635
01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:32,280
Speaker 1: you say, you didn't bring in Dereck Henry to be

1636
01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:34,280
Speaker 1: a spectator, No you did not. You didn't bring in

1637
01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:37,880
Speaker 1: Dereck Henry to be a receiver. Derrick Henry is an

1638
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:43,559
Speaker 1: old school Rundown Hill wear out defense running back exactly.

1639
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:46,720
Speaker 1: So we'll see if we see a little of that.

1640
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:51,240
Speaker 1: By the way, Also college football tomorrow, interesting game USC

1641
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:55,040
Speaker 1: LSU and that game is going to be played in Vegas.

1642
01:18:56,560 --> 01:19:02,760
Speaker 1: And for Lincoln Riley, after last year's catastrophe, you had

1643
01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:07,559
Speaker 1: the reigning Heisman Trophy winner. Everyone is like talking about, Hey,

1644
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 1: you know, you lost out on a trip to the

1645
01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:12,559
Speaker 1: final four of the year before. But with Caleb Williams

1646
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:17,439
Speaker 1: coming back, this will be our year. And you had

1647
01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:21,759
Speaker 1: the worst defense in the country and you wasted Kayleb Williams,

1648
01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:23,639
Speaker 1: who still had a good year. But it's hard when

1649
01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:25,800
Speaker 1: you have to score fifty points a game to come

1650
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 1: out on the winning side. I think he's I think

1651
01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:31,960
Speaker 1: Linka Riley's under immense pressure. Yeah, and they're an underdog,

1652
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:33,800
Speaker 1: by the way, in this game against LSU, I know,

1653
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:34,280
Speaker 1: and they're.

1654
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:36,040
Speaker 4: Both ranked teams. And I asked you off, I'm like,

1655
01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:39,000
Speaker 4: I mean, what is the realistic expectation for us C.

1656
01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:41,000
Speaker 4: And you're like, big expectations.

1657
01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:45,759
Speaker 1: Well, there are no other expectations for USC. They're foring money.

1658
01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:48,880
Speaker 1: You talk about money being spent on the nil. I

1659
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,000
Speaker 1: mean they've been spending money like crazy to try to

1660
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:54,320
Speaker 1: get this thing together and get him back to what

1661
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:57,920
Speaker 1: they were hoping was a return to the Pete Carroll era.

1662
01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:02,040
Speaker 4: Well, I don't think we're returning to that this year.

1663
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 4: I just think you're what the expectation. It seems to

1664
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:08,960
Speaker 4: be a very big jump, and I just don't know

1665
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:10,640
Speaker 4: if SC is gonna do that.

1666
01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:11,720
Speaker 2: So let me ask you this.

1667
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:16,640
Speaker 1: So Pete Carroll is on campus, you know, and you

1668
01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:18,800
Speaker 1: know Lincoln. Riley said, well, I'll be crazy not to

1669
01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:22,120
Speaker 1: utilize Lincoln right, to utilize Pete Carroll. And I'm thinking,

1670
01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:27,040
Speaker 1: don't you dare? I mean this way if you fail again.

1671
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:31,759
Speaker 1: And that guy's sitting here, Yeah, No, I don't care.

1672
01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:33,559
Speaker 2: How old he is. He's you know, he's younger than

1673
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 2: his age.

1674
01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, careful what you wish for, Careful what you wish

1675
01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 1: for it.

1676
01:20:39,680 --> 01:20:40,559
Speaker 2: That's it, all right.

1677
01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:43,559
Speaker 1: Well, we wish for more football talk, and we got

1678
01:20:43,600 --> 01:20:44,439
Speaker 1: plenty of it coming.

1679
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:46,559
Speaker 2: Keep it here. This is Fox Sports Radio.
