1
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: Do you do you feel feel confident you know how

2
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: things are going to play out here. I'm being told

3
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: that we are in a very parody driven version of

4
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: college football, which we are, and I'm being told it's

5
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: because they expand the playoff, which they did not necessarily.

6
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: Sure it's tied to that because a lot of these

7
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 1: conference races would be in the state they're in even

8
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: if we didn't have a playoff. So I don't know.

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying it, I will say that, And I got

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: a lot to talk about with you guys. We may

11
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: lose some friends on tonight's show, which is brought to

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: you by Academy Sports and Outdoors, but so be it.

13
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: The truth has to be told some which way or another.

14
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: It is Sunday night, November third of the year of

15
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: our lawa twenty twenty four jam packed high top a

16
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: suddenly dark downtown Nashville, Tennessee daylight savings time as a disgrace,

17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: and when I'm college football commissioner, I actually want to

18
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: deal with it because I think they outlawed it. After

19
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: this year long overdue. I'll tell you what else is

20
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: long overdue. We got to say some stuff about Clemson

21
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: tonight that's gonna not be so fun. I'm gonna talk

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 1: about them. I'm gonna talk about, of course, Ohio State surviving,

23
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: Georgia surviving, yet lot of vulnerability in the top five

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: right now. And there's some things being said out there

25
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: that are false, and there's some things being said that

26
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: are true, and then there's some things not being said

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: that would be true if they were said. We have

28
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: got a complete abomination of an AP poll out right now.

29
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: Actually large portions of it are okay, but there are

30
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: some notable exclusions, and we won't stand for it on

31
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: this show. I have got so much to discuss with you,

32
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: so I'll waste no more time. They're watching us in Peoria, Illinois, Canton, Georgia,

33
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: Sunset Texas, Madison, Wisconsin. Put my pen all the way

34
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: over there. And we've got an announcement on tonight's show

35
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: about where we're headed for the tour of this Saturday

36
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 1: that I can't wait to make. I've got to take

37
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: proudly our can of Zba Kree James soda just poured

38
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: in the chalice. We waste no time, ladies and gentlemen.

39
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: With our new partner on board, there appreciate ZeVA so much.

40
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: We take the honorary sip from the Challas Hm cream

41
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: SODA's number one in the power ratings right now for

42
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 1: Zeba Flavors. Let's dive into the show tonight. Ohio Penn State.

43
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: Yesterday we were on the sidelines to witness it all

44
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: there in Happy Valley, one hundred and eleven thousand and change,

45
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: the biggest crowd in Beaver Stadium history, and this was

46
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: a forour Chalai Classic. I put four solid chali on

47
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: this game, very entertaining. I'm glad we picked this one

48
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: to go to. We nailed I think the whole pressure

49
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: aspect of this game. You remember last week and the

50
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: lead up to this thing, everybody talked about James Franklin

51
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: and Ryan Day, which is fair we did too. But

52
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: I got taken to task last week a little bit

53
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: because I said, it's not even close. There's more pressure

54
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: on Ryan Day than there ever thought about being on

55
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: James Franklin in this game. And my reasoning was very simple.

56
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: I could imagine a world where Penn State lost this game.

57
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 1: I've seen that before. I could not imagine a world

58
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: where Ohio State lost this game and things remained the same.

59
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: Let me put it that way, and I think in retrospect,

60
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: I was right because this was a close game, it

61
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: was a competitive game. It turned out the way Ohio

62
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: State wanted it to. I didn't learn a ton of

63
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: things about either team. I think we've maybe verified some

64
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: things about Ohio State. So in one sense, if you

65
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: watch this sport from a casual perspective, you saw the

66
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: outcome and you said, that's the way it always plays

67
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: out with these teams. On the other hand, well, okay,

68
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: but there were questions Ohio State looked shaky. In fact,

69
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: I wrote down here on this piece of paper, Ohio

70
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: State was very aware of the situation. I was around

71
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: Ryan Day. I was around that team a lot leading

72
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: up to and then after this game. And it doesn't

73
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: really matter if you weren't, because he said a lot

74
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: in the press conference in the postgame about kind of

75
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: the the It's like if I shook this zva up

76
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: actually right here, and then I popped the top on it.

77
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: That moment was the moment they won this game. There

78
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: was so much pressure around this program this week. Now

79
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: it's a privilege to even be in that position. Age

80
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: old adage pressure is a privilege. They believe that there.

81
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: But my main reason for picking them was I thought

82
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: that deep down in the DNA, just the guts of

83
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: that program, there was a will to win. And I

84
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: said that on last week's show. Ryan Day said it

85
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: like fifty times in the postgame yesterday. Because here's the thing,

86
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 1: jeremih Smith Amecca Agbuca didn't go off. They threw a

87
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: pick six in their opening series. I believe they did

88
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: all that stuff. They found themselves down by double digits

89
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: early and they just gutted out a win. If you've

90
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: ever been part of an organization, if you've ever been

91
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: part of a team that willed themselves to winning something,

92
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: it's the most rewarding feeling in the world. Because anyone

93
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: can win when they play like old this did yesterday.

94
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: When you're fastball, when you're spot in your fastball, and

95
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,840
Speaker 1: then your change up's also working, and then you got

96
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: to get me over curveball, that really becomes a strikeout

97
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 1: curve ball. Everybody's gonna win if you're really good talent

98
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: wise when you can bring that. But Ohio State didn't

99
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: bring that yesterday. It was just the net result. It

100
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: was the cumulative effect of guys here in units there

101
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: just pulling a little bit harder because they knew there

102
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: was no other option. And when you will your way

103
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: to a win, you sit there just exhausted in the

104
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: glow of the win and you basking it for a second.

105
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 1: You celebrate and all that, but what you think to

106
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: yourself is you think, someday, down the road, I'll peak.

107
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 1: Like this team, whether they're right or wrong, they look

108
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 1: in the mirror and they say, down the road, we'll peak.

109
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: We didn't yesterday, but we had no other option. Our

110
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 1: back was against the wall, and we willed our way

111
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: to a win. Don't overlook that stuff, because you know,

112
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 1: not every team's capable of that. Most of them are, actually,

113
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: And like if you've ever been around it, I've been

114
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 1: around it. I've been on the plus and negative side

115
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,799
Speaker 1: of it. It doesn't always have to be at the highest levels.

116
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: Like I remember when I was in high school, we

117
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: went down to Crisp County, Georgia, and we played Crisp

118
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: County in Round one of the Georgia High School state playoffs.

119
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: There was a kid down there, I think by the

120
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: name of de Wayne Farmer, big left handed pitcher. Exactly

121
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,599
Speaker 1: what you would expect a South Georgia left handed pitcher

122
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: to look like. And I remember the afternoon they eliminated

123
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: us in the first round of the GHSA playoffs. I

124
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 1: remember vividly thinking on the bus ride home, that dude

125
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: just willed them to a win. It's not a spectacular team.

126
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: I don't even remember what they did after that. He

127
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: just willed them to a win. And so that's high

128
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: school no one. No one knows that game happened. But

129
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: if the same thing happened yesterday, You've got a couple

130
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: of guys that you know, and maybe they go off,

131
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: maybe they don't. You got a head coach whose name

132
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: you know. You got some coordinators whose name you know.

133
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: It's just you gotta find a way. And then down

134
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: the stretch you hope you'll get hot and you'll get

135
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: momentum and all that stuff. But that's the Ohio State

136
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: side of things. And now they've got very winnable games

137
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: the rest of the way. If Indiana goes into Columbus,

138
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: Ohio and beats them, they didn't deserve to be there anyway,

139
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: I'll put it that way. If Purduer, Northwestern or Michigan

140
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: beat them, they didn't deserve to be there anyway. They

141
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: should be able to take care of business. And that's

142
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: not disrespecting anyone, that's just calling it like I see

143
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: it with Ohio State. And so maybe they've earned the right,

144
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: maybe they'll earn the right to get another shot at Orgon.

145
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: But the Penn State side of things hurts, hurts big

146
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: time here. I felt like standing on the field that

147
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: ten oh should have changed everything. So you go in

148
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: this game. I went into this game feeling like it

149
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: was a fifty five to forty five Ohio State proposition,

150
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: slight lean towards Ohio State to win it. But then

151
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: it's ten to nothing. Penn State put forth a half

152
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: decent drive to get up three to zero, pick six,

153
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 1: ten oh. You got them on the ropes. Their offensive

154
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: line's been a mess. Their quarterback has to be shaken

155
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: mentally after he through a pick six to start the game.

156
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: And you have the defense and home field that you

157
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: think you can lean on. What do you have to

158
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: do at that point? At that point, just think it

159
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: out loud. You're midway through the first quarter, you got

160
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: a ten oh lead on Ohio State. If you can

161
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: scratch out fourteen or seventeen more points max. That should

162
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: be good enough. You should feel like get in the

163
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: mid twenties will be able to win this game three points.

164
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: The rest of the way, it's just inexcusable. Don't care

165
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: who the opponent is. When you got them in your

166
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: building and you perceive yourself as a top five team,

167
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: that's inexcusable. The offense was non existent. Being able to

168
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 1: push the ball downfield non existent. These aren't new problems

169
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: for Penn State. It's just that you were used to

170
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: having to match or maybe play catch up in these moments.

171
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: But when you got a ten to zero lead, I

172
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: turned to my left hand. Right either side, people were

173
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: standing on the field with me. One of them was

174
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: a former player whose name I shall not mention, and

175
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 1: I said, this is their game, this is y'all's game now,

176
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: And it was, and then it wasn't. Ohio State just

177
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,079
Speaker 1: did exactly what they did from that point on. Do

178
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: you realize I want you to listen to this. Maybe

179
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 1: someone out there didn't watch the game yesterday, Maybe you

180
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: just saw the final. A lot of you are traveling,

181
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: a lot of you go to your own games on Saturday.

182
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: Here's all you need to know. This isn't really a

183
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: padlocks stat. It kind of is, though, Yeah, why not

184
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: padlock stat? Do you realize Penn State's leading rushers were

185
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: a tight end and a quarterback, and do you realize

186
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: their leading receiver was a running back? That is the

187
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: Penn State offense and a nutshell. I'm gonna say it

188
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: again for effect, because I think some of it may

189
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: have just kind of You may be listening in the

190
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 1: background and you just did the head twitch. Wait what

191
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: did he say? No, you heard me right. Penn State's

192
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: leading rushers were a tight end and a quarterback, not

193
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: even the mobile one, by the way, and their leading

194
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: receiver was a running back. Their wide receivers had three

195
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: catches total yesterday, Guys with wr next to their name

196
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: had three catches for a combined forty nine yards. That

197
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: won't change until they changed that position. Room is the

198
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: long and short of it. The padlock stat. Here another

199
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: one Penn State three trips to the red zone, three points,

200
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: got inside the five, got first and goal at the

201
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: three twice, and came away with zero points. But if

202
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 1: you really zoom it out, what changed? What changed? You

203
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: can zoom it in so much you can talk about

204
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: bad officiating, which there was all over the Big Ten

205
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: yesterday again, and that's its own show. At this point.

206
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: You could talk about that, you could talk about missed opportunities,

207
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: you could talk about what a freak play that interception

208
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: was in the end zone. All this is true, but

209
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 1: that's in the macro. That's in the micro. Zoom it

210
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 1: out macro for a second. What really changed, Cause I

211
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: feel like we've seen this game half a dozen times

212
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: at this point between these two teams. What really changed? Nothing? Nothing.

213
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 1: Ohio State's just a little bit better than you each time.

214
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 1: They never seem to bring their a game. You put

215
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: up a good fight, but you've got opportunity, in this case,

216
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: golden opportunity in your lap, and you can't do anything

217
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: offensively and it feels like you're just sitting around waiting

218
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: for them to take the game. They do take the game,

219
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: and that's it. But at the same time, you know me,

220
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: if you've watched the show long enough to know I'm

221
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: not selling any James Franklin stock, you just got the

222
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 1: same old, same ole. So that's not the worst thing

223
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 1: in the world. It's the worst thing in the world

224
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: if you suck and you've got the same old, same old,

225
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: Penn State doesn't. Penn State's a pretty good to a

226
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: really good program then period. At the end of that sentence,

227
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: nothing more, nothing less than that, It's long been a

228
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: theory of mind that James Franklin is the most properly

229
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,679
Speaker 1: rated in Penn State's the most properly rated team in

230
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: program in the country because they beat everyone they're supposed

231
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: to and they pretty much only lose to the folks

232
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: who were favored over them. That gets old for a

233
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: Penn State fan. I know, I know, I know. I

234
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: talked to a number of you after the game yesterday

235
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: who hung around there, and I know, I get it.

236
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: You want to be great, you don't just want to

237
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: be good, and you pack that place every time. I

238
00:11:53,880 --> 00:12:00,959
Speaker 1: get it. But speaking as an outsider, my advice, slash,

239
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: my thought on Penn States maybe a little bit different

240
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: than the outside world. The rest of the outside world,

241
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,079
Speaker 1: so we're all outsiders, but the rest of the outside world.

242
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: I've heard a number of takes today. They look at

243
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: Penn State and they say, you just need to settle

244
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: for being what you are. You'll never be this, you'll

245
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: never be that. Well, I mean, maybe they're right. I

246
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 1: don't know that I would think that in this uncertain

247
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: time in college football, nothing is at ston Stone. But

248
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: I would say I would say standard operating procedures gotten

249
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: you about as far as you're going to go. So

250
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: if averaging nine and a half wins whatever they average

251
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: per year, is good enough, then it is enough. I

252
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: don't get the sense that's good enough. Man. Every time

253
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,319
Speaker 1: I go up there. I talked to James Franklin on Friday.

254
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: Up there, I talk to a number of their coaches,

255
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: talk to their players on Friday. Those folks are just

256
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: as all in and just as jacked up and hungry

257
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 1: as any other staff and any other program in America.

258
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: There's no complacency there. It's just they keeps singing and

259
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: they don't quite land it on someone's jaw. And maybe

260
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: one day, maybe one day they course correct twenty degrees.

261
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: Maybe one day you wake up and they've landed two

262
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: portal wide receivers that totally change the game, and elsewhere

263
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: they're close enough to where that puts them over the top.

264
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: Maybe that happens. I just know to not take being

265
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: really good for granted. In this sport. It's no consolation

266
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: when you can't be great or you haven't been great.

267
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: I know it's no consolation, but I'm a little different

268
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: and that I don't think that. I don't think the

269
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: ceiling on Penn State is as fixed maybe as some

270
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: people think it is, only because I don't think anything

271
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: about college football is fixed right now permanently the way

272
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: some think it is so. And by the way, I

273
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,320

Speaker 1: to keep it that way. It costs you nothing to subscribe.

278
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: I saw someone today say, yeo, Ohio State one, but

279
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: they're a flawed team. Yes, welcome to college for by

280
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. They all are. They all are. Oregon

281
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 1: looks as good as anyone to me right now, and

282
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: they nearly got beat by both the teams from Idaho

283
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: earlier in this season. Now, Oregon looks like a much

284
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: better team than they did early in the season. Point being,

285
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: don't be trying to discount someone's accomplishment right now talking

286
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: to me by saying they're a flawed team. Yeah, they are.

287
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: They sure are, and Georgia is, and Texas is, and

288
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: Alabama is and everybody is. Everybody is right now. So

289
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: it's about who can mask their flaws. And here's what

290
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: we have to wait for. We got to wait to

291
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: see what Ohio State bottles up out of this man.

292
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: Jim Knowles deserves a lot of credit for yesterday. I

293
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: think Chip Kelly deserves a lot of credit for yesterday.

294
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: Those guys were able to scratch out enough offensively and

295
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: could have been more. You had to touch back down

296
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: there near the goal line. So they went in there

297
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: and they did enough offensively. Because keep in mind now,

298
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: going into this game, there were some people who thought

299
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: they'd get shut down because their offensive line was that

300
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: horrifically bad and exposed the week before. And they went

301
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: in front of one hundred and eleven thousand and they

302
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: played Penn State's super Bowl, took their best shot, and

303
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: they came out on top. Penn State ceiling is pretty

304
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: clearly defined here. I don't know that Ohio State ceiling

305
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: is defined yet. So that's the great unknown coming out

306
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: of games like this, when when you got teams. The

307
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: conclusion of Bama LSU this Saturday night will be the

308
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: same way someone's gonna win that game. And then you'll

309
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: find yourself asking, all right, is this team? Is this

310
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: winning team just like Ohio State? Now? Are they gonna

311
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: bottle this up? Are they going to be the team

312
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: that also looks like Oregon looks right now where they

313
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 1: get that downhill November momentum working for them and they're

314
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,960
Speaker 1: all of a sudden the team that is an unequivocal

315
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 1: number one, number two co favorite sort of to win

316
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: it all. It is a wait and see moment right now.

317
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: As we enter early November, you enter Academy Sports and Outdoors.

318
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: There is no waiting, There is no guesswork have it.

319
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: And I don't even know what it is. I don't

320
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: even know what you need. I just know they have it.

321
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: And if they don't have it, let's just be real

322
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: with ourselves. Should you even be wasting your time looking

323
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: for it? Another unanswerable question. Academy Sports and Outdoors is

324
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: the presenting partner of this show. We appreciate them. We

325

00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: one else will, but Jesse and Colin would back me

327

Speaker 1: our backs nearly from the beginning here and we sincerely

00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: appreciate them. All Right, which game would you talk about

339
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: next if you were in my position? And hey, hey,

340
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: sec heavy show? Right, well, we let it with the

341
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 1: Big ten tonight. It's almost like the biggest games get

342
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 1: front row treatment on the show. I'm really taking shots

343
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: at like three people and using the entire show's platform

344
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 1: to do it. Since Saturday's in the review mirror, now

345
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you in. We were very close yesterday

346
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: to locking down the ability to be at the Penn

347
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: State Ohio State game early in the day and then

348
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: State College has got an airport and hop in a

349
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: flight to Columbia, South Carolina. Last night. I didn't announce

350
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: it because I didn't know if we could finalize it,

351
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: and we ended up not being able to finalize it.

352
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 1: I badly, Colin, this is not to be included in

353
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: the regular cut. This is just me talking with the

354
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: live audience. I badly wanted to be in Columbia, South

355
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: Carolina last night because I had a feeling. I had

356
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 1: a pretty good feeling on this one. Okay, Colin, here's

357
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: your endpoint A Lina forty four, Texas A and M twenty.

358
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: We wanted to be here, bad man. A couple of

359
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: big games yesterday. We were at the big noon game.

360
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 1: We were up at State College for Ohio State Penn

361
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: State Man. We wanted to be at this game. Three

362
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,400
Speaker 1: and a half chili on the one to five scale

363
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: if you're a South Carolina fan, this was a five

364
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: chilai classic. This may be the best game under Shane Beemer.

365
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: I'd like to see that list off the top of

366
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: my head. I don't remember a more emphatic evening, a

367
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,199
Speaker 1: better spectacle for just South Carolina game Cock football than

368
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: this one. I felt this one all week. I ran

369
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: my mouth earlier in the week about Mike Elico and

370
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: where that program was going. But if you watched or

371
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: listened to the show, you know I said I feel

372
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: this way about an M. Even if they go and

373
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: lose by twenty or thirty to South Carolina, it's because

374
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 1: I thought they were gonna lose. I predicted them to lose.

375
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 1: I predicted South Carolina to win this game. They made

376
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: the game exactly what it should be. See up the

377
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: road a little ways or down the road a little ways.

378
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: And Clemson they have to bye week, and they came

379
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: out of their by and looked horrific. South Carolina came

380
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: out of their bye and it turns out they had

381
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: spent two weeks setting fifteen different traps in the woods

382
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 1: for A and M, and they walked into every one

383
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 1: of them. This was a really good game. There was

384
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,679
Speaker 1: a really good game of multiple fronts for Texas A

385
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: and M to experience. And I don't say that mistakenly.

386
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: I think they needed this. This This will serve them

387
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 1: in the long run. I don't just mean this year

388
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: like this will serve them in the long run. This

389
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 1: is life in the SEC. That's what it's about. I'm

390
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: not saying that. I'm not saying they're new to the conference.

391
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: Texas is new to the conference. Oklahoma's new to the conference.

392
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: I just mean, for what they're trying to rebuild there,

393
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: this will serve them well. But we talk about the

394
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,719
Speaker 1: winners first on this show. I've got padlock stats all

395
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: over the place. You remember last week when we were

396
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: predicting this game, I said that there was there was

397
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: a little bit of disagreement amongst South Carolina fans. Most

398
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,439
Speaker 1: of you don't peruse the South Carolina message boards, but

399
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: I do, so you don't have to, And there was

400
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 1: a lot of talk last week. I participated anonymously via burner.

401
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: I participated in the talk about what South Carolina's offense

402
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: would look like out of the bye week, because there

403
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 1: was a school of thought that they were just gonna

404
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: stick with the same old, same old, and hope that

405
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: they could ride special teams in that pass rush and

406
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: rocket Sanders. They just hope they could ride that to

407
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 1: some close wins. I was of the opinion, didn't know

408
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: exactly how, but I was of the opinion that we

409
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: were gonna see a little more than just modus operandi

410
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: thus far this year. Well, the results are in. I

411
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: feel like Mary Povitch here, and it turns out, South Carolina,

412
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: you are the father. South Carolina had five hundred and

413
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: thirty yards total offense. What in October? No man? Just

414
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: in this game they had six point seven yards per carry.

415
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 1: This is against A and M. A and M's got

416
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: a really salty defense. Nine plays twenty plus yards South Carolina.

417
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: Imagine this eighteen point eight yards per completion. So, as

418
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: it turns out, South Carolina did come out of the

419
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: buy shot out of a cannon. Offensively, they owned the

420
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: second half. Now, in the first half, Le'Veon Moss went

421
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: down the tailback for A and M, and that had

422
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 1: something to do with this. But South Carolina owned a

423
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 1: second half twenty four to zero run. And here was

424
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 1: the probably let's just go ahead and pop the paper

425
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: the other padlock stat here which I wanted to know.

426
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: I wanted to know how much consistent pressure were they

427
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: going to get on A and M. Well, the answer

428
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 1: was all night. Marcel Reid had thirty six dropbacks in

429
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: this game. South Carolina either hurried him or sacked him

430
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: on twenty one of his thirty six dropbacks. That, to

431
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: go along with the most underrated home field atmosphere in

432
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: college football, was not to be trifled with last night,

433
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: and then Justin King and the folks over there in

434
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: the creative department, they had the audacity to actually take

435
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: footage of the field storming and lay it over real

436
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: Sarah mcgloughlin music. Do you realize that Colin and Jesse

437
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 1: they went and licensed the real thing. We're too scared

438
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: to do that around here. Later in the show, I'll

439
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: have the Sarah mcglachlin special, but we just use royalty

440
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: free piano music. Look at this, Some say that girl

441
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: right there still has her leg caught in the shrubbery,

442
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 1: but it was for a good cause. What a night,

443
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: What a night? Look at the crowd. There were some

444
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: money shots from the A and M or from the

445
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 1: ABC crew. It was one where guy just disappears down

446
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: the sideline and then they focus in on Shane Beemer.

447
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: Look like a movie scene. Honestly, it looked like the

448
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 1: game had been scripted from the way they shot it.

449
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: I don't again, you play big boy football. You're gonna

450
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: have your games broadcast on major networks, and it's worth

451
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 1: a lot of money to be on those major networks.

452
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: I don't know to what extent, like to what numerical

453
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 1: value this game was worth for South Carolina. I just

454
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: know it was a lot so last week I chose

455
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,400
Speaker 1: my words very wisely. As some of you pointed out

456
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: in the moment when I talked about Texas A and

457
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,919
Speaker 1: M I talked about how sky high I thought the

458
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: program was going to fly under Mike Elco. I talked

459
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 1: about how Mike Elko unequivocally was the right hire. I

460
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: was buying all the Elco stock I could, but you

461
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: never heard me say any of that without saying dot

462
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: dot dot. And I'll maintain this even if they lose

463
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: by double digits Saturday against South Carolina, because I expected

464
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 1: them to lose really bad spot for him. So here

465
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 1: we are, they've lost emphatically to South Carolina. I maintain

466
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: everything that I said, everything I think about this year's team.

467
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 1: It's a flawed team, just like all the rest of

468
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: mar probably a little more vulnerable. They're not as good

469
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: as some of the top five, top ten teams. But

470
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 1: long term, this program is going to be in it

471
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: every year. Got very little doubt about that. Marcel Reid

472
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: was what he was last night. This offense after losing

473
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: Le'Veon Moss had a really hard time South Carolina had

474
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 1: nine plays of twenty plus yards and A and M

475
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,479
Speaker 1: had four. One team did a much better job of

476
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: generating explosives and limiting explosives than the other one did.

477
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: What I was surprised by was that South Carolina ran

478
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 1: it like they did on A and M. Now that

479
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: surprised me a little bit. But this A and M

480
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: second half drive chart, punt turnover on downs three and out, interception,

481
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: three and out punt fumble, end of game. It is

482
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: a stark contrast to the week prior when they trailed

483
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: LSU by double digits into the third quarter and then

484
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: they just completely explode, totally inverted game. Here was I

485
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: think Jesse Witness twenty twenty at the half. I believe

486
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: it was or thereabouts, and then boy, it was all

487
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: South Carolina in the second half. South Carolina is a

488
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: very dangerous team. Let me explain to you what we're

489
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: looking at here. You're looking into team whose only convincing

490
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: loss was to Ole Miss. Turnovers got them out of

491
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: shape early, but they lost to LSU after Lenora Sellers

492
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: goes down in the game and officiating is sus alf

493
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: in the second half. They probably beat LSU more times

494
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,160
Speaker 1: than not in that game, and then they've lost by

495
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,200
Speaker 1: two on the road to Alabama. Those are their losses.

496
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: They lost by a combined five to LSU and Alabama,

497
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: and Ole Miss is their other loss. This is a

498
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: probably a top fifteen team not in the AP. God forbid,

499
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 1: we ranked South Carolina in the AP. More on that

500
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 1: later in the show. By the way up, subscribe. If

501
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: you're already here and haven't, I got a lot of

502
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 1: you watching live right now, a lot of you just

503
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: watching this individual video. Leonora Sellers played at a different

504
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: level than I've seen him play last night. I don't

505
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: even care what his numbers were, although Colin has put

506
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 1: them on the screen so I now see them. These

507
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: are not numbers that are going to send him to

508
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 1: New York City or anything like that. But if you

509
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: watched him, you know what I mean. You ever watched

510
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: guys who are coming into their own and say, uh oh,

511
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: you just if you have I'm on your schedule, or

512
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 1: if you have to compete against him, or they're one

513
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: of your rivals, you just say, uh oh. It was

514
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: an uh oh game. To me, as I'm watching South Carolina,

515
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: it was an uh oh game. I'm watching Leonora Cellars

516
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 1: and it's almost like someone is turning the light switch

517
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 1: on in real time. Guys just a different caliber athlete.

518
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: They were excited about him the day he got on

519
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 1: campus two years ago. I guess it was now and

520
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: the results, like the returns we got out of Columbia,

521
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,679
Speaker 1: were you wait till you see this kid. It's not

522
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: gonna be this year, but you wait down the road

523
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: until you see this kid. Well we're down the road

524
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: now and you're still just seeing them scratch the surface

525
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: of what he can be. And because they've got him

526
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: and he is a total dynamic force at the quarterback position.

527
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 1: They got Rocket Sanders in the backfield as well. They've

528
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: got a great pass rush. This team is so dangerous

529
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: right now. And it's a shame they didn't clip LSU

530
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: or Alabama because we'd legitimately be talking about South Carolina

531
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: in the playoff race. That is not a conversation many

532
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: people had them in in the preseason, including their own

533
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: fan base. Hats off to Shane Beemer the entire coaching

534
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: staff because they kept their nose down. I really felt

535
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: like when they came out of that Bama game and

536
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: they barely lost it, then they went and smoked Oklahoma,

537
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,400
Speaker 1: and Shane Beemer afterwards said, you know, after the Bama game,

538
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: we kind of just looked around and said enough is enough,

539
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: Like we've been close forget that enough is enough, which

540
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 1: were no more than words at the time. Anyone can talk.

541
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: It was obvious he was saying something in the affirmative.

542
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: He was just validating what he was feeling from his

543
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 1: locker room. And they've embodied that since then. So here's

544
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: what's about to happen. They're gonna come here, They're gonna

545
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: come to Nashville Saturday. They're gonna play Vandy. Then they

546
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: got Missouri, then they got waffered, then they go to Clemson.

547
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: There are a lot of worlds where they finished four

548
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: and oh, there are several where they finished three and one.

549
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 1: It's not out of the realm of possibility. They go

550
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: two and two, right back to what South Carolina has been.

551
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: But the ball they're playing right now is plenty good

552
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 1: enough to where they could finish as a nine and

553
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: three team. And I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna put

554
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: a hex on them or anything like that. I'm not

555
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna speak the words. But if you're

556
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 1: nine and three and a bunch of chaos happens in November.

557
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 1: I'm not saying. I'm just saying, and that's South Carolina.

558
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 1: We're talking about South Carolina. It's not even October anymore.

559
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 1: Hoop's new Quick Trip Howard the whole New Saturday tour.

560
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: We rolled up to Well, we flew up to New York.

561
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: It was a busy week last week. After the Tuesday show,

562
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: we flew to New York and I did Inside College

563
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: Football Wednesday. Then we did the show live from New

564
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 1: York Thursday. And trust me, friends, if you would have

565
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: told me doing our show in a basement in Columbus,

566
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: Georgia a few years ago that we'd end up doing

567
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: it live from New York City multiple times in a

568
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 1: one month span, I would have called you a liar.

569
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 1: But here we are. And then we drove over to

570
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: State College Thursday night. We were there all day Friday,

571
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: we were there Saturday. They treat us amazing up there,

572
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: probably because the wardrobe matches. We get everything up there

573
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 1: that we could ever want, so, I mean everything from

574
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,479
Speaker 1: coach Franklin to Greg and his staff. We appreciate it.

575
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: And we saw a great game yesterday. They came out

576
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: on the wrong side, but we saw a great game.

577
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: And so that's yesterday, and we appreciate quick trip for

578
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: fueling us wherever we want to go. I've been looking

579
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 1: forward to this week for a while. I don't even

580
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: want to beat around the bush. Yeah, we're going to

581
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: LSU Alabama at LSU this Saturday night. I have not

582
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: been able to go to an LSU game in like

583
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: four years, and it's insane's ridiculous, it's preposterous. It's all

584
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: kinds of different words. I don't have time. I've got

585
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: a whole list of words that I could have used.

586
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: Here we finally get to go. Everything they say about

587
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: night games in Death Valley is accurate. There's some hype

588
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: and hyperbole in this sport, and sometimes the results don't

589
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: match the hype. But if you can, oh, friends, if

590
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 1: you can ever go to a night game, specifically when

591
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: that team right there is in town, you will never

592
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: have hype delivered on more thoroughly than witnessing Alabama at

593
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: LSU Saturday night in Death Valley. I'm gonna be there.

594
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: We'll be there on the sideline Saturday. I cannot wait.

595
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: I have waited and waited and waited. The schedule has

596
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: not broken our way, and I've been really mad about it,

597
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: and it has broken our way, And let me go

598
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: ahead and tweet this out boom. Now the world knows

599
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: we're headed to Baton Routhe Saturday night, and quick trip

600
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: is going to fuel us every step of the way.

601
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to say I'm looking forward to this

602
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: trip more than any we've made all year, but I'm

603
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 1: pretty much looking forward to this trip more than any

604
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: we've made all year selfishly. Twenty nineteen is when the

605
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: show blew up, And that's the same year LSU football

606
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: blew up and we were doing we were doing segments

607
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 1: on La LSU out of our little studio over there

608
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: in Columbus, Georgia, and the LSU folks latched onto it.

609
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: The LSU people are a big reason why our show

610
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: ever got on the radar enough to where at the

611
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 1: time Shannon Terry was here and CBS had purchased twenty

612
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: four to seven, and the folks at CBS saw it

613
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: and they gave us a shot. And I'm still convinced

614
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: to this day. If LSU does not go on that

615
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: run that year, and if the LSU folks don't accept

616
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: the show and start really really spiking our numbers, we

617
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: may never have gotten this opportunity. So suffice it to say,

618
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: LSU's always had a really special place in my heart.

619
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: In a world where we're not supposed to play favorites,

620
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: I don't really care about that because LSU will always

621
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: be a favorite of mine, and being able to go

622
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: down there is especially a favorite activity of mine, which

623
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: is fine. I've had this smirk on my face over

624
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: the last couple of months when occasionally a little threat

625
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: will pop over pop up on the LSU message board

626
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: because they are like fifteen or twenty folks claiming that

627
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: we've hated on LSU this year. No, friends, you can

628
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 1: look elsewhere for your LSU hate. You won't get it

629
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: from me. You may get truth from me. I mean,

630
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 1: I always buy into the team and what they're capable of,

631
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: But you ain't get an LSU hate from me. So

632
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 1: we'll be down there Saturday, we really really and let

633
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 1: me emphasize one more time for clarity, really look forward

634
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: to that one. I hope I haven't been unclear. Oh

635
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: this Zva cream soda is hitting tonight. Speaking of Death Valley,

636
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,719
Speaker 1: they tell me there are two of them. Now, this

637
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: segment's going to be uncomfortable. I'm just warning you. If

638
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: you've got Clemson children at home, now's the time to

639
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: send them to do the chores, sweep the porch whatever.

640
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: Louisville beat Clemson so much worse than the box score

641
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: indicates last night. Thirty three to twenty one was the

642
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: final straight up. This is the most jarring thing I

643
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: saw yesterday. I'd give it a two and a half

644
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: on the Chali ratings. Good for Louisville. The rule around

645
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 1: here we talk about the winners first. You know, they

646
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: tell you stats don't lie. Casuals will say that to you,

647
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: stats don't lie. Man, Well, casuals are lying to you

648
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: when they say stats don't lie. Because I need you

649
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: to completely ignore the box score. On this game, Clemson

650
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: got dog walked. Clemson was coming off of by facing

651
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: an opponent playing their seventh game in seven weeks, facing

652
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: an opponent playing their third road game in four weeks.

653
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: You got a roster advantage, but what you didn't have

654
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: is a coaching advantage, and what you didn't have is

655
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: a motivation advantage. And Louisville just came out there. They

656
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: just worked you. They just worked Clemson like I don't

657
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: think I've seen Clemson worked in a long time. They

658
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 1: just took a baseball bat to them all night. I

659
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 1: know the score looks semi close. The box score doesn't

660
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: look terrible. This was an extremely lopsided game. Jeff Brohm

661
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: has now locked down his fifth win versus top twelve

662
00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: teams since twenty eighteen. We said in April, I think,

663
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: and we raised some eyebrows with it. I told you

664
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: we've got Brom as like a top five head coach

665
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,919
Speaker 1: in the country. He's easily the most underrated head coach

666
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: in the country. He's just been at purduing Louisville, and

667
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 1: so no one really pays attention. And I mean, what

668
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: more do you need to see from him? And then

669
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: you think about some other teams we're talking about and

670
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 1: their abysmal record against top ten competition, top fifteen competition.

671
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: Brom says, I got no problem. I don't need to

672
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: recruit top ten classes either. Just you know, give me

673
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: some players and give me a puncher's chance and I'll

674
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: land it. And he landed it again and again and

675
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: again last night. The thing about it is, if you

676
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: watched this game, you know, it could have been worse.

677
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,239
Speaker 1: Louisville had to settle for a bunch of field goals

678
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: and I think they missed one. Could have been worse.

679
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: Isaac brown Man, I hope that tailback gets some more love.

680
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: He had one hundred and fifty one in a touchdown

681
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: last night. They just seven seven point six yards per carry.

682
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: By the way, they just worked them. Louisville just worked them,

683
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: and so the story was not Louisville. To me, I

684
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 1: give y all the credit in the world. And their losses,

685
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: by the way, are to Miami SMU and Notre Dame,

686
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: each of them by one possession. Louisville and Ole miss

687
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: are the most underrated teams in the country right now.

688
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 1: To me, we'll talk about the ap pole later in

689
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: the show, but before we do that, I've heard her

690
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: tuning up over here and it sounds right, and she

691
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: always does, ladies and gentlemen, as if there was any doubt,

692
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 1: the Sarah McLaughlin special Louisville over Clemson, and I want

693
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 1: to take you to a specific point in this game.

694
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: Clemson is down nineteen late in the third quarter, and

695
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: they choose to hit the brakes totally thirteen plays six

696
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 1: minute drive. They then attempt a field goal down nineteen

697
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: inside the ten, blocked again, not even the first time

698
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 1: that night. A little bit later, eleven minutes left a

699
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 1: sixteen play drive, melting the clock like an ice cream

700
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: cone in July. They're huddling, there's no urgency. They can

701
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 1: get the touchdown, so then they're only down thirteen. What

702
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: does the chart say? Apparently Clemson's chart says kick the

703
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 1: extra point, you know, because being down twelve is way

704
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: better than being down thirteen. Why would we want to

705
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: be down eleven? What mathematic advantage does that give us?

706
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,919
Speaker 1: It was really good work. If it were a spring game.

707
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 1: I watched this and said to myself, this feels like

708
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: a spring game. It's not. It's week ten. They looked

709
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: so discombobulated and unprepared to play last night, and to

710
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: his credit, Dabo said in the postgame, they basically did

711
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 1: a disservice to the team by not having them prepared

712
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: to play. And he's right now that it is classic

713
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 1: pr in that they will advise you, they won't chase

714
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,279
Speaker 1: you if you don't run. That's why they really smart, coach,

715
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: is when they get beat, they're the first ones to

716
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: step to the podium and say we got out coached,

717
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: we got out coached, we got out coached, because the

718
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: human psychology is well, he's admitting it, so I guess

719
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 1: we don't have to throw him under the bus. No,

720
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: you're getting thrown under the bus because you absolutely did

721
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: and you had no excuse for it. Here's why last

722
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,919
Speaker 1: night's going to matter a lot. I felt like when

723
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: I was watching that that I was watching more than

724
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 1: just a loss. I want to be really respectful, respectful

725
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 1: with how I put this because I don't do this

726
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: stuff a lot, but I feel what I feel about

727
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 1: last night. So I think last night did permanent damage

728
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: to daboswiny at Clemson. It felt like there were probably

729
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: some things in motion before last night that got exposed

730
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,720
Speaker 1: because of last night that they won't be able to reverse.

731
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: Like their stadium went from being a place where no

732
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: one's won at night since twenty thirteen to being a

733
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: place that was emptying out during the fourth quarter. I

734
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 1: need you to understand how jarring that is to everyone involved.

735
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: You don't see it, It just doesn't happen. Louisville went

736
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: in there and just damped them. It was so emphatic that.

737
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: Here's the problem. Clemson folks are proud, they're a proud

738
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 1: fan base. Last night's gonna matter so much because of

739
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 1: the duality of how Clemson fans have handled this recently.

740
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 1: They stand up for debos winning, they stand up for

741
00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 1: the program exactly as they should. But that doesn't mean

742
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 1: they haven't had doubts. But they've kept it internal. Clemson

743
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 1: fans will talk amongst themselves about how maybe they question

744
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 1: a little bit Dabo's resistance to the portal, and they'll

745
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 1: question this, they'll question that, but publicly they'll ride for

746
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 1: him because they don't appreciate how folks come after him

747
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 1: sometimes unfairly, which I agree with. So I'll defend him

748
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:43,839
Speaker 1: on this show when I think folks have come after

749
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: him unfairly. But last night was so incontrovertible. It was

750
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: such a baseball bat to the face. They can't deny

751
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 1: it anymore. Like the concerns they've had behind closed doors.

752
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 1: The door got kicked down, is basically what I'm saying.

753
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: And so that'll be out in the open now and

754
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 1: they may finish the season, okay, but you're not going back.

755
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,919
Speaker 1: You're just not going back. It is not gonna work.

756
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: Clemson football from this point forward is on a trajectory

757
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 1: that is headed the opposite direction of where you hope

758
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,399
Speaker 1: it heads, and it will never be terrible. It's not

759
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 1: where It's not what I'm talking about. It's not where

760
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: they're headed. But there is a standard that, to his credit,

761
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: to his supreme credit, there is a standard that Daboswiney

762
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,800
Speaker 1: established at Clemson. And because of the way the sport

763
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: has changed around him, and because of his not inability

764
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 1: but unwillingness to adjust with it, which is his choice,

765
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: they are not able to meet that standard anymore. And

766
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: so this is Clemson football now. They got four games left.

767
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 1: I don't care if they win all four of them.

768
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 1: I don't care if they lose three of the four.

769
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is true. And you watch and you see,

770
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: you listen to to Clemson folks now, and I guarantee

771
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: you they will sound different. I know many of them.

772
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: I'm not just talking to hear myself talk. I know

773
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 1: many of you, and I know how many minds were

774
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: changed last night from being willing to silently criticize behind

775
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,360
Speaker 1: closed doors to say, Nope, this ain't gon work anymore.

776
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 1: Last night wasn't close. It wasn't. You turned the ball

777
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: over three or four times, and it was a fluke

778
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: freakish outcome. You got owned by a team that has

779
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: no business treating you like that. You got owned, and

780
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 1: to be honest, a lot of it is preventable and

781
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 1: well within the rules to do, and you've chosen not

782
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 1: to do it. You couldn't push the ball down the

783
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: field to save your life last night because you don't

784
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: have difference making players. You know you don't, and the

785
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 1: reason you don't is because you hadn't got him out

786
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 1: of high school. You hadn't developed him there, and you

787
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: haven't gone elsewhere to get them, even though the talent

788
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: acquisition mechanisms to do that are afforded to you. Now

789
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: you've chosen not to do it, and it's not gonna

790
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 1: work anymore. So I don't think those folks are happy

791
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 1: enough with that being Clemson football because of the standard

792
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:05,360
Speaker 1: that you have set there. I don't say that sarcastically.

793
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: I say that would all do credit. Daboswiney is a legend.

794
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 1: He will always be a legend in this sport. But

795
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,760
Speaker 1: they are not going back to what they were unless

796
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 1: they changed things about that program and I don't know

797
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: if I would ever say last night was a favor

798
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 1: that was done to them. It's never a favor when

799
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: someone pantses you in your own building like that. But

800
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,399
Speaker 1: at least it provided clarity, you know, at least there's

801
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: no more holdout, there's no more let's wait and see.

802
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 1: There's no more waiting and seeing. We waited, we saw.

803
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:39,080
Speaker 1: That's Clemson football. Now they're watching us in Lakeland, Florida, Seneca,

804
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 1: South Carolina, Provo, Utah, Thibodeaux, Louisiana, which I don't know.

805
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: Up until about five years ago, I pronouncedipodoaks. I know,

806
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 1: trust me, I know. Let's move along. Well, let's take

807
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 1: a sip of cream soda and then we'll move along.

808
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 1: I told Jesse to bring in some cube dice today,

809
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: but he didn't. We had settle for crushed ice. The

810
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,640
Speaker 1: thing about ZBA is they only sent us drinks. They

811
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,919
Speaker 1: didn't send us ice. Jesse, make a note of that.

812
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 1: Georgia won by two touchdowns yesterday. Georgia beat Florida thirty

813
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 1: four to twenty. It's a rivalry win. So that's wonderful. Right, Well,

814
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: first let me tell you I give this game three

815
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 1: chali on the one to five scale entertaining to watch.

816
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 1: I was listening to it on my drive to Pittsburgh

817
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 1: last night. I don't get it. I do not get

818
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: it with Georgia. I don't know what else to say.

819
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,239
Speaker 1: It's a rivalry win. You take it anyway you can

820
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 1: get it. I know all the cliches. They just seem

821
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 1: so off. They seem so off. There's no mystery why

822
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: the quarterback gives the ball to the other team a

823
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: whole lot, but it's the classic swinging door game. Guys.

824
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: I think Florida was on their way to win in

825
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:54,879
Speaker 1: this game. I think Napier had them ready to go.

826
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 1: And I think if that quarterback doesn't go down, if

827
00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: Lagway doesn't go down, I can't prove this, So who

828
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: in the world knows? It's not worth anything. They may

829
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 1: very well have been on their way to win in

830
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 1: this game, and Georgia may have gutted it out. I

831
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,400
Speaker 1: don't know, but I would love to know, just for

832
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: personal amusement. How does that game go if he doesn't

833
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 1: get eliminated? And now Lagwa wouldn't lighten the thing up

834
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 1: in the first half. I know that, but when he

835
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: went down, it felt like a matter of time until

836
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: Georgia took the game over. And it was. But it's

837
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: a weird spot following a win. And I have a

838
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: very interesting relationship with the Georgia folks. The Georgia folks

839
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: are thinking exactly what I'm about to say. They will

840
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 1: get mad that I say it. Some of them will

841
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,320
Speaker 1: get mad I say it, but I'm gonna say it anyway.

842
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 1: So Carson Beck is not even close. He's not even close.

843
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: Georgia has a standard just like Clemson does, higher than Clemson.

844
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: Georgia has a standard. They've got away, They've got goals

845
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 1: that they want to go about accomplishing, and they just

846
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: can't do it right now. Of course, Carson Beck's not

847
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 1: good enough. He's throwing eight picks in his last three games.

848
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 1: He threw another three yesterday, should have been four had

849
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: a defender just drop a ball thrown right to him.

850
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 1: They were good enough to win because Florida's not a

851
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: good team and really not good without their backup quarterback.

852
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 1: Who knows. It's just oh, there we go. So I

853
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 1: sit here in November and I know how good I've

854
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 1: seen Carson Beck play in the past, which is good

855
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 1: enough to win a national title, I thought, And he

856
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: came back this year, and I remember being over there

857
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: in the spring and they were so emphatic, and I

858
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,319
Speaker 1: agreed with him. They said, you can talk about the

859
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 1: recruiting class, you could talk about us landing a couple

860
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 1: of guys out of the portal, but our biggest accomplishment

861
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 1: was getting this guy to come back this year. And

862
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 1: this is what we've got. I mean, immense regression to

863
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 1: the point where you just throw your hands up and

864
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 1: you say, what are we watching here? What are we watching?

865
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 1: I keep waiting for the game to happen where he

866
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:51,800
Speaker 1: doesn't make any of those mistakes because I've seen it before,

867
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 1: and who maybe it'll get sprung on us. But by

868
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 1: the time you get to November, you pretty much got

869
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: what you got. And it's not like he's hurt. To

870
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,400
Speaker 1: this point, I don't know that he's hurt. Maybe he is,

871
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,920
Speaker 1: and we'll find out after the year. But he is

872
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 1: their starting quarterback and the performance level that he's playing

873
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: at will not be good enough for them to win

874
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: a national championship. And the only way to invert that

875
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 1: statement is for him not to play like he's played

876
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: to invert that and to play at the level that

877
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 1: I and many other people thought he was capable of playing.

878
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: So I'll get back to Georgia in a second. They

879
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: won the game. You don't ever take that for granted.

880
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,800
Speaker 1: I understand that. That's why I said it's a weird

881
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:32,960
Speaker 1: spot to be in. Because you got a team that

882
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 1: wins a game, but because you know what the expectation

883
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,439
Speaker 1: level is for them down the road, you just find

884
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 1: yourself saying yeah, but yeah, but yeah, But I give

885
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 1: Billy Napier a ton of credit for having his team ready. Here,

886
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: I don't know that it's gonna matter. I had had

887
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 1: one Florida buddy text me yesterday and say, Napier saved

888
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 1: his job. At about nine more text me and say,

889
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,279
Speaker 1: don't you even dare say that on tomorrow night's show,

890
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:59,320
Speaker 1: because it doesn't matter. He's done. Well. What that unscientific

891
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:03,839
Speaker 1: poll is evidence of is nothing more than most people

892
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 1: already have their mind made up on Billy Napier. So

893
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 1: I think you can give the guy a ton of

894
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 1: credit for having his team ready to play. Yesterday, they

895
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,240
Speaker 1: almost beat Tennessee. A couple of three weeks ago, they've

896
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: they've played better ball. But the real crime is it's

897
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 1: irrelevant because they weren't ready out of the gate earlier

898
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:29,919
Speaker 1: in the season, like now Lagway's done, and so they'll

899
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 1: go to Texas and they'll probably lose. They'll probably lose

900
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 1: to LSU, they'll probably lose to Ole Miss, and then

901
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 1: it'll be a moot point and you can play the

902
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,719
Speaker 1: whole what if game and you can get credit for

903
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: the Kentucky win, But you're Florida and you're multiple years

904
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 1: in and so you're not gonna get credit for moral victories.

905
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 1: Nor should you. It's Florida, nor should you. I don't.

906
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: I don't make any bones about that. The real crime,

907
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: as I said, was that Miami game. They weren't ready

908
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 1: to be more competitive. That A and M game. They

909
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: weren't ready to be more competitive, and both of those

910
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 1: games were at home. And that digs you a hole

911
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: where you've got to pull off a miracle in the

912
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,920
Speaker 1: back half of your season. And now your starting quarterback's

913
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 1: been out, now your backup's done, and so you don't

914
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: get benefit of the doubt. I think mines are made

915
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: up on this. I'm not spending a lot of time

916
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 1: on it because I think mines are made up on that.

917
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,439
Speaker 1: But going back to Georgia for a second. I had

918
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,959
Speaker 1: Georgia as the number one team in the country last week.

919
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: I'm not going to knock them all that far. If

920
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:29,439
Speaker 1: I knock them at all, I haven't JP Pole hasn't

921
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 1: run injuries yet. They may be my number one team

922
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 1: in the country for all I know this week, which

923
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: lets you know everything you need to know about the

924
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,799
Speaker 1: competitive balance of the top of the SEC. Oregon would

925
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 1: be the best team in this conference right now, point blank.

926
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 1: I pick Oregon to win the SEC right now. Organ's

927
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: not in the SEC. Texas got pretty well owned by

928
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 1: this Georgia team, so Texas is easily vulnerable. Georgia's looked

929
00:47:56,640 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: very vulnerable. We've already seen Bama tote two losses, LSU

930
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: tot to two, and they play Alabama this Saturday. Old Miss.

931
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: I've got to convince you guys they're not dead. I

932
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,880
Speaker 1: think Ole Miss is the most underrated team in the country,

933
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: and Tennessee is just kind of there. Ho hummed their

934
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 1: way past Kentucky yesterday. You know they go to Georgia

935
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,400
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks. That's one oh A and M.

936
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 1: By the way, sorry didn't mention them one two three, four, five, six.

937
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,840
Speaker 1: There are seven teams here that have viable paths to

938
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: winning the SEC Championship, not just making it there. Anybody

939
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,319
Speaker 1: who makes it to Atlanta can win it this year.

940
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 1: They are going to tell you, oh see, there, see

941
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 1: what the expanded Playoff's done for us? What are you

942
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 1: talking about? If we had the BCS model in place

943
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,960
Speaker 1: this year, the SEC would still look like this. And

944
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 1: I only say that because someone texted me that today. Well,

945
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,240
Speaker 1: I guess you were wrong about the impact the expanded

946
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 1: Playoff was going to have on the sport. I said,

947
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: provide your evidence, please. They said, look at the competitive bounds,

948
00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 1: look at the parody in the SEC. I said, what

949
00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: does the postseason model have to do with that? And

950
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: they well, actually they haven't replied yet. They left me

951
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: on red. It's wide open, guys, it's wide open. You

952
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 1: place your bets accordingly at FanDuel because it is wide

953
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: open right now. I who will be who will be

954
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:23,320
Speaker 1: in Atlanta first week of December? Who will be there Georgia?

955
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 1: Do you understand Georgia goes on the road this Saturday?

956
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: They play well, Miss George's favored by two and a half.

957
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 1: That number dropped like a rock as soon as they

958
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: posted it. And if Georgia loses that game, well, first off,

959
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 1: then they got to play Tennessee. This is just a

960
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 1: tougher schedule, man, it is a tough it's a different

961
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,680
Speaker 1: kind of schedule then Georgia was losing. We used to

962
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,279
Speaker 1: play in And the thing about the past few years

963
00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 1: Georgia teams is, even though it would be a tougher schedule,

964
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,839
Speaker 1: they'd be good enough to win anyway. It'd be tough

965
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 1: for them, they'd win anyway. This year's Georgia team is

966
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: not vintage Georgia, and so they may not be They

967
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,320
Speaker 1: may not be good enough to do that. Time will tell.

968
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 1: Georgia goes to Ole Miss Saturday, then they got Tennessee,

969
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: and then they're done with conference play. So we'll know

970
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:11,760
Speaker 1: Georgia's tale of the tape conference wise by the sixteenth

971
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 1: of November. All right, let's roll on. So we had

972
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 1: a lot of games to get to. I've just got

973
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:21,799
Speaker 1: to talk, hopefully maturely but probably not, about the ap

974
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 1: Pole crimes against college football being committed by the esteemed

975
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 1: voters in the ap Ole Miss splattered Arkansas. It was

976
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:34,839
Speaker 1: a shame, it was a crime, and a shame, as

977
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,800
Speaker 1: Memo would say, went down to Northwest Arkansas yesterday sixty

978
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,799
Speaker 1: three to thirty one. All I needed to know about

979
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:44,439
Speaker 1: ole Miss after that LSU loss was are they still

980
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 1: checked in? If ole Miss was still checked in? And

981
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 1: this was a one and a half CHILDLI game, not

982
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,240
Speaker 1: very watchable if you weren't an old Miss fan. If

983
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: ole Miss was still checked in, Old Miss was going

984
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,759
Speaker 1: to be very dangerous because with two losses, folks were

985
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 1: gonna forget about them, which a lot of America had.

986
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:02,640
Speaker 1: But all those players were still going to be there.

987
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,919
Speaker 1: And ole Miss has not checked out, so they're still

988
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: in this thing. And ole Miss is a two loss team,

989
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:11,720
Speaker 1: but they are a top ten team in my eyes,

990
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: power ratings wise, this is a top ten team. AP

991
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 1: does not agree. That's okay, though, use your eyeballs. Just

992
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,839
Speaker 1: watch them. Just watch them now. I will say this,

993
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:25,879
Speaker 1: I have no evidence of this, but this game was

994
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:29,640
Speaker 1: so severely lopsided it wouldn't surprise me if they either

995
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 1: knew something or they had something on Arkansas. I'm not

996
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,000
Speaker 1: going full Connor Stallions on you or anything like that,

997
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 1: but this was almost beyond the pale. They had eight

998
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 1: touchdowns in twelve drives six They nearly had seven hundred

999
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:47,280
Speaker 1: yards total offense. The thing about that is Ole Miss's

1000
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 1: previous four games they had failed to top twenty seven points,

1001
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: and they just exploded. Trey Harris was out in this

1002
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 1: game in dark five hundred and fifteen yards and six touchdowns. Anyway,

1003
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 1: he just set program records. So either Arkansas got sliced

1004
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 1: up in historic fashion straight up, or Old Miss had

1005
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 1: them scouted about as thoroughly as any team's ever had

1006
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 1: someone scouting. Everything's on the table, everything's in play for

1007
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 1: Old Miss. I need you to understand this. Okay, don't

1008
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 1: don't trust the boogeyman, the Danny Canels of the world,

1009
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 1: who as soon as you lose a second game, if

1010
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,400
Speaker 1: you got an SEC sticker on your helmet, tell you

1011
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 1: you're eliminating. No, you're not, and Ole Miss is not.

1012
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 1: The Old Miss is maybe on the outside of the

1013
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:33,000
Speaker 1: picture looking in temporarily. But what if they win Saturday?

1014
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:37,520
Speaker 1: What if they beat Georgia? What happens and what happens

1015
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,880
Speaker 1: with the rest of the country. If they close undefeated

1016
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:42,760
Speaker 1: and they only got three games left, they got Georgia

1017
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:44,880
Speaker 1: and then they got a bye week, then they go

1018
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 1: to Florida and then they play Mississippi State. If if

1019
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 1: they if they win Saturday, they're gonna they're gonna beat

1020
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,359
Speaker 1: those other two teams and they will finish ten and two,

1021
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,360
Speaker 1: and they will have closed with five straight wins, and

1022
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: they'll have a win over Georgia and they'll have a

1023
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 1: win comfortably on the road at South Carolina. I think

1024
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 1: we all understand after last night how big an accomplishment

1025
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:11,239
Speaker 1: that was. You're gonna look at them and say, oh, no,

1026
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 1: it's slam dunk. You're eliminated. No they're not, No, they're not.

1027
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 1: There'll be one of several SEC teams squarely in the mix,

1028
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 1: and that team, that Ole Miss team, if they keep winning.

1029
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 1: You mark my words on this, mark the date. It's

1030
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: November three. If Ole Miss keeps winning, they're going to

1031
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 1: be a big barometer team for Greg Sanki and for

1032
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: the SEC, because those folks are just sitting around waiting

1033
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:36,799
Speaker 1: right now. They're sitting around waiting to see how the

1034
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:41,120
Speaker 1: College Football Playoff Committee treats these teams. Not the number

1035
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,320
Speaker 1: one or number two and number three teams in your conference,

1036
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,280
Speaker 1: but the number four, five, six teams in the SEC,

1037
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: the ones whose resumes probably compare very favorably to teams

1038
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 1: from other conferences with fewer losses. They're waiting to see

1039
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 1: how the committee treats them before they decide whether they

1040
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 1: need to take their ball and just go play their

1041
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 1: own game. And that team, that Ole Miss team, that's

1042
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,120
Speaker 1: the perfect team to watch because that's the kind of

1043
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,000
Speaker 1: team that could be sitting there ten and two, And

1044
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 1: because the committee's already put four other SEC teams in,

1045
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,880
Speaker 1: they just give the nod to someone else, like SMU

1046
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 1: or something like that. And Greg Sinki says, that's the

1047
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 1: call you're gonna make. Huh, that's your decision. That's your

1048
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 1: final decision. Okay, well maybe we've got a decision to

1049
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 1: a decision to make in a couple of years. I'm

1050
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,200
Speaker 1: not advocating for it, but I'm just saying that's reality.

1051
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,800
Speaker 1: Right now, everyone kind of understands it's a trial period

1052
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: for the college football playoff format, and the two most

1053
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 1: interested parties are the SEC in the Big Ten. Translation,

1054
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,799
Speaker 1: they want preferential treatment, and they're gonna punish you if

1055
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:48,959
Speaker 1: you don't give it to them. That's your grandfather's college football, right.

1056
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:53,880
Speaker 1: Let us move merrily along here, Oregon made an example

1057
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 1: out of Michigan. Yesterday two Chali on the one to

1058
00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,839
Speaker 1: five scale, thirty eight to seventeen was the final great

1059
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 1: uniform game. You know, Oregon has now beaten Ohio State

1060
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,080
Speaker 1: and Michigan in the same year. The last time a

1061
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,719
Speaker 1: Big ten team did that anyone, anyone out there want

1062
00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:14,799
Speaker 1: to guess the last time a Big ten team beat

1063
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,160
Speaker 1: Ohio State and Michigan in the same year. That would

1064
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 1: be Michigan State in twenty fifteen. And Oregon came in

1065
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 1: and did it in year one, and afterwards looked around

1066
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:29,400
Speaker 1: and said, oh, no one else has done this. Are

1067
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,040
Speaker 1: you serious, guys of wasn't that hard? Come on, now,

1068
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 1: this is the best team I've seen this year. I've

1069
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 1: seen all of them. I think I've seen all the

1070
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 1: top ten in person this year, and they're leaving no doubt.

1071
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,120
Speaker 1: They were shaky out of the gate and they were

1072
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 1: banged up, but they got right and they have left

1073
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: no doubt. That game at Purdue no doubt, Illinois no doubt,

1074
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 1: Michigan no doubt. Now somebody's going to listen to that

1075
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,640
Speaker 1: who doesn't know any more about college football than they should,

1076
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,239
Speaker 1: and they're going to say, big deal, you're beating a

1077
00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:02,480
Speaker 1: bunch of inferior teams. Yeah, that's the point. Georgia played

1078
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 1: one yesterday. How'd they look? Bama went to Vandy favored heavily,

1079
00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:11,319
Speaker 1: how'd they look? Don't scoff at these teams who do

1080
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,719
Speaker 1: what they're supposed to especially in a year where no

1081
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 1: one can seem to do what they're supposed to do.

1082
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 1: Oregon was ten to fifteen on third down. So there's

1083
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 1: your padlocks that Jordan James out rushed to Michigan as

1084
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 1: a team. Here's the humbling part about it. If you

1085
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: really want to know the truth. Michigan didn't play that

1086
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:34,320
Speaker 1: bad a game. Michigan probably played, all things considered, about

1087
00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,799
Speaker 1: as close to a perfect game as they could play. Now,

1088
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 1: Michigan folks will sit there and shoot back at me

1089
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 1: and say, no, no, no, we were penalized and when

1090
00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,879
Speaker 1: we missed opportunities. I know you did. I know you did.

1091
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:47,640
Speaker 1: I said, it's the best you could expect to play.

1092
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:49,640
Speaker 1: This isn't a great team this year, so it's the

1093
00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 1: best you could expect to play. You just take the

1094
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: season for what it is. It's a rebuilding year, and

1095
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 1: you hope you're better for it. Down the road, But

1096
00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 1: the Big Ten race seems to be a two team now,

1097
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 1: except that Indiana is still undefeated. So we all know

1098
00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:08,720
Speaker 1: Indiana is gonna play Ohio State eventually, and if Ohio

1099
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,760
Speaker 1: State wins that game and everyone else, you know wins

1100
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:15,600
Speaker 1: out looks for the moment like we've got that Oregon

1101
00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 1: Ohio State collision course, which is the way most people

1102
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: expected it to play out going back to August. Still

1103
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:24,920
Speaker 1: got some work to do on both sides, but that's

1104
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 1: where we look like we're headed right now. And if

1105
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:30,640
Speaker 1: that's what we get round two in Indy, that's what

1106
00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 1: we get. The odds to win the Big Ten championship

1107
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 1: right now? Fresh from FanDuel, who do you think is favored?

1108
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,600
Speaker 1: If you're listening on podcasting, you can't see this graphic, college,

1109
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 1: just put up who do you think is favored to

1110
00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 1: win the Big Ten? Right now? What if I told

1111
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:50,200
Speaker 1: you there's not a favorite, there's co favorites. Oregon and

1112
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:52,880
Speaker 1: Ohio State have the exact same odds to win the

1113
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: Big Ten right now? Isn't that spicy? Thank you, FanDuel?

1114
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:02,520
Speaker 1: Very spicy. Indeed, I've got half a dozen games I

1115
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 1: need to talk to you about. So I'm gonna go

1116
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 1: kind of rapid fire on these I'm really just I'm

1117
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,800
Speaker 1: really just biting my time. I'm working my energy up

1118
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 1: until the end of the show. Because the AP has

1119
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:19,000
Speaker 1: done something probably more egregious, even than putting Missouri in

1120
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 1: the top twenty five a couple of weeks ago. I'm

1121
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,440
Speaker 1: not happy about it. You shouldn't be happy about it.

1122
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 1: These people are supposed to be working for us. If

1123
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 1: you're an AP voter, it's like you're supposed to be

1124
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,919
Speaker 1: a public servant to college football, and some of you are.

1125
00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:32,920
Speaker 1: Some of you need to be served. Some of you

1126
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,400
Speaker 1: need to be served. You're not doing your due diligence

1127
00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:41,640
Speaker 1: on this. But first, oh, crushed Ice just swallowed a

1128
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:45,520
Speaker 1: lot of it. Community, let's go with this, Okay, several

1129
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,000
Speaker 1: added takeaways I had from yesterday. Kind of rapid fired

1130
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 1: my way through these games today. Miami covered for US. Yesterday,

1131
00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:56,200
Speaker 1: Miami is down twenty eight to seventeen in the third quarter,

1132
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 1: and they covered twenty and a half. Miami's probably the

1133
00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 1: only team in the country that finds a way to

1134
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 1: do that. Because Miami is the only team with the

1135
00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 1: profile that would trail Duke by double digits. On the

1136
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 1: road in the third, but also be good enough to

1137
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 1: win by twenty three, because that's what happened, because cam

1138
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:16,200
Speaker 1: Ward is a different kind of player. Nine passes of

1139
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 1: twenty plus yards, the defense forced four turnovers. They got

1140
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 1: twenty one points off of it. Miami and SMU, if

1141
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:28,240
Speaker 1: things remain on their current trajectory, that's gonna be your

1142
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 1: ACC Championship game matchup because of what SMU did yesterday. See,

1143
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,160
Speaker 1: SMU got Pitt. A lot of people were hating on

1144
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 1: the Jpee pole for having Clemson as high as I

1145
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: had them, and you should. Clemson was fraudulent and so

1146
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:47,439
Speaker 1: the JP pole deserves to be slapped. But no one,

1147
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:49,760
Speaker 1: Jesse and Colin, I don't know if you noticed this.

1148
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:53,400
Speaker 1: No one gave us any credit because they never do

1149
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,360
Speaker 1: for what we did with Pitt. See, Pitt has not

1150
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:01,120
Speaker 1: been a top twenty five team to us. SMU has been,

1151
01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:03,520
Speaker 1: and we got raked over the coals for it. And

1152
01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 1: I kept saying, guys, all this is is telling you

1153
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 1: that SMU would be favored pretty heavily Overpit if they

1154
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 1: played on a neutral field. Well, then game week arrives,

1155
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:17,880
Speaker 1: because it just so happens that SMU hosted pitt Now

1156
01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:21,000
Speaker 1: they hosted them at home, so the line was seven

1157
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,720
Speaker 1: and a half. Let's subtract three for home field advantage.

1158
01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 1: Odds makers are still telling you there's over a field

1159
01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 1: goal gap between these teams. No one wanted to hear it.

1160
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 1: And then SMU won forty eight to twenty five, and

1161
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: the JP pole haters were in shambles. They were totally silent.

1162
01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:39,920
Speaker 1: SMU was in a strong do up position. We liked

1163
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 1: them to win this game in cover because they were

1164
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,320
Speaker 1: minus six turnovers and still won the week before, so

1165
01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:47,480
Speaker 1: they played as bad as they could possibly play. They

1166
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:50,200
Speaker 1: ran the red light and didn't have to pay the price.

1167
01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 1: And in life, when you run through a red light

1168
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 1: and you realize you did it, there is no bigger

1169
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 1: sigh of relief you'll ever breathe in that because you

1170
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 1: have watched nightmare traffic video after nightmare traffic video of

1171
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 1: people who do pay the price when they run a

1172
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 1: red light or a stop sign. SMU ran a stop sign,

1173
01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 1: they ran the red light last week, and they just

1174
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:12,160
Speaker 1: cruised right on through the intersection and then they look

1175
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:15,480
Speaker 1: in the rearview mirror. Wo to eighteen wheelers come through

1176
01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 1: and you go and then they did what they should

1177
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:21,320
Speaker 1: have done. They put their foot on the gas, and

1178
01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 1: they were ultra awake and they were hyper aware, and

1179
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:28,920
Speaker 1: they tend intu their way to an absolute blowout of PIP.

1180
01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:32,760
Speaker 1: I expect SMU to play in a conference championship game

1181
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 1: this year. It's their first year in the ACC. Half

1182
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 1: of America still doesn't even realize they're in a power

1183
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 1: for conference. But they will. They will come conference championship Saturday.

1184
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 1: I think they're going to be there. They got Boston College, Virginia,

1185
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,200
Speaker 1: and Cal left. They'll be favored over all three. I'm

1186
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:50,400
Speaker 1: not taking it for granted. They should beat all three.

1187
01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 1: Miami is the pretty significant odds favorite to win the

1188
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:57,320
Speaker 1: ACC right now, but SMU is second, and then it's

1189
01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:02,160
Speaker 1: a long way down to Clemson. Good good for SMU

1190
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 1: and good for Vandy. Good for Diego Pavia, Diego Pavia.

1191
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:13,080
Speaker 1: These these are all you know, these are papers, and

1192
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:15,320
Speaker 1: they're they're just a rundown of the show. But they

1193
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:19,439
Speaker 1: might as well be ownership papers, because Diego Pavia has

1194
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 1: just taken full ownership of the state of Alabama. He

1195
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 1: was the quarterback at New Mexico State, and they went

1196
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 1: in there and smoked Auburn last year, and then he

1197
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 1: was the quarterback at Vandy earlier this year and they

1198
01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:32,480
Speaker 1: took down Alabama and it was no fluke in the process.

1199
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:35,360
Speaker 1: And then they gird up their loins and they go

1200
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:37,200
Speaker 1: on the road and he just beats Auburn again. He

1201
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 1: is three and oh against teams from the state of Alabama.

1202
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 1: And I ain't talking about Troy all due respect to

1203
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 1: the Trojans. Not a great year this year, but we

1204
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 1: will rebuild. He's beaten Auburn twice, he beat Alabama, and

1205
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 1: the rest of his teams did too. I don't know.

1206
01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 1: I know they're six and three right now. I know

1207
01:02:57,240 --> 01:02:59,920
Speaker 1: Vandy is six and three. I know Auburn is terrible.

1208
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 1: Just a lost season for Auburn, but Vandy is six

1209
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: and three and they have got South Carolina coming in

1210
01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 1: there this week, and then they go to LSU after

1211
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:13,560
Speaker 1: a bye week, and then they got tennis c at

1212
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:18,920
Speaker 1: home during rivalry week. Nashville will be electric as it

1213
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,400
Speaker 1: should be during rivalry. Tennessee's gotten used to just using

1214
01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:24,920
Speaker 1: that thing as some tune up game for an SEC

1215
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 1: championship hopeful appearance that they hadn't made recently, but not

1216
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 1: this year. Not this year. Good for Vandy six and

1217
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 1: three already Bowl eligible and we've just now entered November.

1218
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,680
Speaker 1: I was victimized by Indiana yesterday. Many of you have been.

1219
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: Many people have been victimized by Indiana this year. But

1220
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:48,600
Speaker 1: I bet against him yesterday. Imagine if you will for

1221
01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:52,880
Speaker 1: a second, you're me and you take Michigan State plus

1222
01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:57,439
Speaker 1: seven and a half, right and Michigan State. You check

1223
01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:01,600
Speaker 1: your app and they're up ten. Oh, feel great? Called it.

1224
01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: Indiana will probably come back and win. But I mean

1225
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:05,840
Speaker 1: it's going to be close. It's going to be at

1226
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:15,360
Speaker 1: the gun forty seven unanswered Indiana. They scored on seven

1227
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:17,520
Speaker 1: of nine drives. After a couple of three and outs

1228
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:19,840
Speaker 1: to start the game. They scored on seven of nine drives.

1229
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what this team is. I figured

1230
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:26,480
Speaker 1: it out. I grew up in Harris County, Georgia. It

1231
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,960
Speaker 1: gets really dark at night in Harris County. A lot

1232
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 1: of wildlife in Harris County, and so every now and

1233
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,440
Speaker 1: then you got to go out to your truck and

1234
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 1: get something at night. You remember you forgot the mail.

1235
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 1: So you walk down to the mailbox late at night

1236
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:45,040
Speaker 1: and you just hear a noise in the woods. Indiana

1237
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 1: is the noise in the woods. They are the noise

1238
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 1: in the college football woods this year because you have

1239
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 1: no clue what's out there, and it's terrifying. Indiana should

1240
01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:59,240
Speaker 1: terrify folks. They're not supposed to be here. You really

1241
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,560
Speaker 1: still don't know. They are half folks out there still

1242
01:05:01,560 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 1: saying well, they haven't played anyone. Yeah, but they've thrown

1243
01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:06,240
Speaker 1: everyone they have played in a wood chipper. They haven't

1244
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:09,720
Speaker 1: snuck their way past anyone. They spotted Michigan State ten

1245
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:14,320
Speaker 1: and then just obliterated him yesterday, like those are someone's

1246
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:17,120
Speaker 1: children and they did that to them. And then coach

1247
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:19,880
Speaker 1: Sig doesn't care. I've never seen a more care free

1248
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 1: head coach at a major level of college football in

1249
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:25,200
Speaker 1: my life. And they just they're They're the noise in

1250
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 1: the woods. They're the noise in the woods. Do you

1251
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:29,440
Speaker 1: want to go see what it is? I don't want

1252
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:30,920
Speaker 1: to go see what it is. I'm glad they're not

1253
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:34,160
Speaker 1: on my schedule. Peate State will not be scheduling Indiana

1254
01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:37,080
Speaker 1: anytime soon. That's a top ten team. They're the number

1255
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 1: eight team in the country in November in football. Good

1256
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:44,120
Speaker 1: for Buck Rising I have no clue if he was

1257
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,480
Speaker 1: even a where Indiana played yesterday. But good for my

1258
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:50,400
Speaker 1: Indiana people. You gotta deserve it. I didn't deserve to

1259
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:53,440
Speaker 1: get beat by Texas Tech yesterday. Shame on Joey maguire

1260
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:55,840
Speaker 1: and company for coming to Ames and having the audacity

1261
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:59,720
Speaker 1: to compete like that as nearly a two touchdown dog.

1262
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,240
Speaker 1: Texas Tech has never been a two touchdown dog against

1263
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:04,640
Speaker 1: Iowa State. They won twenty three to twenty two. This

1264
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 1: was my own personal Sarah McLaughlin special yesterday. Nothing perfect

1265
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:12,919
Speaker 1: last forever except in our memories. That is not only

1266
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,919
Speaker 1: the quote on the movie poster for a River runs

1267
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 1: through it, but it was also my recap of the

1268
01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:22,760
Speaker 1: Iowa State game yesterday. This is the Big Twelve in

1269
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:26,720
Speaker 1: all its glory. This is America's college football conference delivering

1270
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:29,760
Speaker 1: in a way that only it can deliver. Iowa State

1271
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:31,919
Speaker 1: at their best is a low margin for era team,

1272
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:34,400
Speaker 1: and they made too many mistakes yesterday. But you know what,

1273
01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:38,320
Speaker 1: Texas Tech came to play, and Texas Tech is another

1274
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 1: fun story that a lot of people need to be following.

1275
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 1: Toads Brooks that tailback right there. Maybe the best player

1276
01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,880
Speaker 1: on the field yesterday. Now everyone's still in it. Everything's

1277
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 1: still there for Iowa State. They still got Kansas State

1278
01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:51,840
Speaker 1: coming in a few weeks. But Texas Tech deserves a

1279
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 1: lot of credit here. They had a little quarterback situation

1280
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 1: the week before and they barely got beat and then

1281
01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 1: they go on the road here, back to back road games,

1282
01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 1: by by the way, and they get the job done.

1283
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:03,720
Speaker 1: Twenty three to twenty two. That was a fun one

1284
01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,720
Speaker 1: to listen to. Went back and watched it. Well, it

1285
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: was fun in a competitive kind of way. Personally, it

1286
01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 1: was a nightmare for me. But don't worry. The Clones

1287
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:16,120
Speaker 1: will get right back up off the mat, as Clones

1288
01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:20,400
Speaker 1: are wont to do. And then Houston just takes out

1289
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,920
Speaker 1: Kansas State. If you watched Friday Night Lines, you remember

1290
01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:25,160
Speaker 1: I went about two minutes on this game because I

1291
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,000
Speaker 1: had forgotten to talk about it on the show last week,

1292
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 1: and I said, guys, Kansas State's favoritebody about two touchdowns.

1293
01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,520
Speaker 1: They may just go ahead and lose outright. They are

1294
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,440
Speaker 1: bad on the road. Kansas State is not a good

1295
01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:39,320
Speaker 1: road team. They beat they almost lost Tulane earlier this year.

1296
01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: It got smoked by Brigham Young. They are not good

1297
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 1: on the road. That Colorado game on the road, that's

1298
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,040
Speaker 1: their best game of the season to me, cause they

1299
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:49,840
Speaker 1: went on the road and beat a very good team.

1300
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,840
Speaker 1: They did not in this game, so Willie Fritz and

1301
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 1: company they got their big statement win in year one.

1302
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 1: But let me tell you what happened yesterday. Iowa State loses,

1303
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:04,000
Speaker 1: Kansas State loses. Colorado had the best week of anyone

1304
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:06,840
Speaker 1: in the Big Twelve yesterday and they didn't even play.

1305
01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:10,760
Speaker 1: Dion sat at home and his team got the biggest

1306
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:14,200
Speaker 1: win in the Big Twelve yesterday. I don't think you

1307
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:18,280
Speaker 1: are ready to know how close Colorado is to crash

1308
01:08:18,320 --> 01:08:21,360
Speaker 1: into playoff this year. I don't want to jinx anyone.

1309
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:24,040
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna talk anymore about it. The odds to

1310
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,200
Speaker 1: win the Big Twelve Championship, there's still kind of a

1311
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:29,120
Speaker 1: long shot. But you know what, there is no long

1312
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:32,679
Speaker 1: shot if you're alive in the Big Twelve Championship race

1313
01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 1: in November. There is no long shot at that point.

1314
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,840
Speaker 1: If you've gotten in the November club, it's anyone's ball game.

1315

Speaker 1: a Wednesday night game. I mean, what else would you

1329
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 1: rather do in the hours after the election is wrapped

1330
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:21,160
Speaker 1: up than bet Northern Illinois minus one and a half.

1331
01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:23,799
Speaker 1: That's what we're gonna do. That's how we're gonna celebrate

1332
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 1: the first day after the election. Northern Illinois minus one

1333
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:29,320
Speaker 1: and a half. They're playing Western Michigan and Mississippi State's

1334
01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:31,599
Speaker 1: getting too many points I think against Tennessee. So we're

1335
01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:34,360

1357
01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 1: is the organ currently of ZBA FLA. To me, what

1358
01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:05,000
Speaker 1: is the AP pole doing? What are we doing? What

1359
01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,599
Speaker 1: is the APP pole? What is our stated goal here?

1360
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:09,640
Speaker 1: Because a lot of you have just mailed it in,

1361
01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have Colin show you these rankings. And I've

1362
01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 1: got no problem with the top teams. Like Oregon's number one,

1363
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:21,280
Speaker 1: they should be Georgia. Okay, I'm not going to point

1364
01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:23,960
Speaker 1: out their flaws because like everyone's got flaws here, Ohio

1365
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,320
Speaker 1: State's number three, Miami's number four. Now, I will say

1366
01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:29,760
Speaker 1: when you see the JP pole on Tuesday night, there

1367
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:31,759
Speaker 1: will be a little detachment. I'm not gonna have Miami

1368
01:11:31,800 --> 01:11:35,240
Speaker 1: that high. So the model has a little disagreement on

1369
01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:39,040
Speaker 1: how HIGHATT would have Miami. But remember the AP pole

1370
01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:41,200
Speaker 1: and the JP poll are doing two totally different things.

1371
01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:43,599
Speaker 1: So yeah, if I was ranking teams, I'd have Miami

1372
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:46,320
Speaker 1: up there. They're undefeated, and so yeah, I have no

1373
01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,000
Speaker 1: problem with that. Texas at five, I'm good with Penn

1374
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:51,880
Speaker 1: State's at six. Now, I told you last week we

1375
01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 1: had Penn State is one of the more overrated teams

1376
01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:59,519
Speaker 1: from a pure odds making perspective, as there was not

1377
01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:02,639
Speaker 1: over rated in rankings terms. Well, now they're down to six.

1378
01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 1: We had Penn State, what Jesse like eight or nine

1379
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:08,720
Speaker 1: last week. We probably won't drop them a whole lot

1380
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:10,840
Speaker 1: this week, truth be told. But we're still not as

1381
01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:13,320
Speaker 1: high on him as the AP is. Tennessee's at seven.

1382
01:12:14,280 --> 01:12:16,000
Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. We'll have them a little bit

1383
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:18,640
Speaker 1: lower than that. Indiana is at eight. And here's the

1384
01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:22,080
Speaker 1: crazy part. I pretty much agree JP Pole will not

1385
01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:27,000
Speaker 1: have Indiana much lower than eight. I can't believe the

1386
01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:28,559
Speaker 1: words are coming out of my mouth. That's why I

1387
01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 1: pause when I say that Brigham Young at nine, good

1388
01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:33,720
Speaker 1: to go, Good to go. We have exempted Brigham Young

1389
01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:36,360
Speaker 1: from the JP POLE, from the Model. The Model is

1390
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,320
Speaker 1: not to even speak the name BYU anymore. So we

1391
01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 1: put them wherever you want to. I'll be good with it.

1392
01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:45,719
Speaker 1: Notre Dame's at ten, okay, Pama eleven, Okay, Boise's at twelve.

1393
01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:48,800
Speaker 1: Now this is another detachment team. Because Boise is seven

1394
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:51,680
Speaker 1: and one, they're going to be ranked higher than the

1395
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:54,960
Speaker 1: Model will have them. Models pretty fixed on Boise now,

1396
01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:58,679
Speaker 1: and the high teens to low twenties range. Boise's okay,

1397
01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:01,960
Speaker 1: they're set, they control their own DEAs SMU at thirteen,

1398
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm good with them, really really sneaky team right now

1399
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:09,200
Speaker 1: LSU and A and M fourteen fifteen, I'm good. Now

1400
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,559
Speaker 1: we get to the most underrated team in the country,

1401
01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:14,320
Speaker 1: and that's Old Miss. Ole Miss is down at sixteen.

1402
01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:18,160
Speaker 1: Off the top of my head, there are probably eight

1403
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:20,960
Speaker 1: or nine teams ranked a head of Old Miss that

1404
01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:23,479
Speaker 1: I would love to take Ole Miss against if they

1405
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:28,439
Speaker 1: played tomorrow, neutral field, of course, so they've got it

1406
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:31,639
Speaker 1: to do. They've got Georgia this Saturday, so they'll validate

1407
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:34,880
Speaker 1: themselves or invalidate themselves one way or another. I will

1408
01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:37,439
Speaker 1: just tell you this. If Ole Miss plays Georgia to

1409
01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:41,000
Speaker 1: within three and they lose Saturday, that would not bump

1410
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:43,639
Speaker 1: them down much. In my mind. The AP would bump

1411
01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:44,960
Speaker 1: them down because it's a loss, you know, and you

1412
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:47,160
Speaker 1: are what your record says. You are one of the

1413
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:49,760
Speaker 1: biggest lies in college football. So Old Miss, let's just

1414
01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:51,439
Speaker 1: book mark them, let's just keep an eye on them.

1415
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:55,200
Speaker 1: I always stayed at seventeen. Okay, Army, the model I

1416
01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:58,720
Speaker 1: have told it, don't even bother with service academies, military

1417
01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 1: and Mormons. You were not degread. So Brigham Young and

1418
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 1: Army are both off the board. Rank them anywhere you

1419
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:07,839
Speaker 1: want to. Clemson is nineteen. Now I whiffed on Clemson.

1420
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,360
Speaker 1: Excuse me. I didn't whiff on Clemson because I don't

1421
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,879
Speaker 1: get the blame. I just get the credit. The model

1422
01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:17,040
Speaker 1: here is the culprit. The model whiffed on Clemson. You idiot.

1423
01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:21,000
Speaker 1: You had Clemson top five, You had Clemson over Miami.

1424
01:14:21,439 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: What do you know, You're just a computer, what do

1425
01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:25,920
Speaker 1: you know. See, that's how we deal with it around here.

1426
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:30,160
Speaker 1: I have never been wrong on predictions. I've never been

1427
01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:33,479
Speaker 1: wrong on rankings. Either kids, coaches, officials, or the models

1428
01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:36,479
Speaker 1: screw it up and it makes me look wrong and

1429
01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 1: it hurts. But it's if you need to take one

1430
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:42,320
Speaker 1: thing and one thing only from tonight's show, just know this,

1431
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:45,960
Speaker 1: it's not my fault. Clemson was not my fault. It

1432
01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:48,720
Speaker 1: was the model's fault. Clemson is now nineteenth in the

1433
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:50,800
Speaker 1: AP and I don't know where we're going to have

1434
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:52,880
Speaker 1: them in the jpeople Tuesday night, but it will not

1435
01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:55,240
Speaker 1: be number five. Let me just assure you of that.

1436
01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 1: Washington State's twentieth. We're not even close the jpeople on

1437
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:02,080
Speaker 1: the Apeople or not even close on Washington State, and

1438
01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:06,200
Speaker 1: I would I'd be willing to bet over half of

1439
01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:08,719
Speaker 1: the ap voters have not watched a Washington State game.

1440
01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:11,400
Speaker 1: I'm not lying and telling you I've been glued to

1441
01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:13,559
Speaker 1: every one of them, but I know they haven't. And

1442
01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 1: I'm not voting. They're voting. I'm not voting. Colorado is

1443
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:18,680
Speaker 1: at twenty one. I got no problem with it, and

1444
01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:21,160
Speaker 1: they were the biggest winner yesterday. They sat at home

1445
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:25,960
Speaker 1: bye week, and ma'am, everyone else fell around them. Kansas

1446
01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:29,720
Speaker 1: State fell, Iowa State fell, and Colorado is just smiling.

1447
01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:33,120
Speaker 1: Deon looks like he does in one of many commercials,

1448
01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 1: and he's just smiling. There he goes. Kansas State at

1449
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:39,400
Speaker 1: twenty two. Okay, pitt they dropped to twenty three. You

1450
01:15:39,400 --> 01:15:42,479
Speaker 1: guys are still way too high on pitt You're just

1451
01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:44,840
Speaker 1: way too high on pitt I spent the night last

1452
01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 1: night in Pittsburg. I got no problem with Pittsburgh. We're

1453
01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,439
Speaker 1: just we're still not close here. We're not close. You

1454
01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 1: got Pit rated twenty third vand twenty four are good

1455
01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:59,960
Speaker 1: for them. Louisville twenty five, probably underrated. We're in the world.

1456
01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:04,080
Speaker 1: Go to South Carolina? What are we watching the same

1457
01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:08,240
Speaker 1: sport from the same group that had Missouri still ranked

1458
01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:10,679
Speaker 1: twenty fifth last week or two weeks ago, and whenever

1459
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:14,280
Speaker 1: that was we watched or I think we all watched

1460
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:19,559
Speaker 1: South Carolina just bodybag, A and M last night. Are

1461
01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:23,639
Speaker 1: you watching Lenora Sellers? Do you see this pass rush

1462
01:16:23,680 --> 01:16:26,880
Speaker 1: they have? Did you see that place last night? You

1463
01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:30,439
Speaker 1: think they're twenty five teams better than South Carolina in

1464
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,880
Speaker 1: the country Right now? They lost by a field goal

1465
01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:36,439
Speaker 1: to LSU with the most suspect officiating I've seen this

1466
01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:39,040
Speaker 1: year and their quarterback going down in the first half.

1467
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:41,880
Speaker 1: They lost by two on the road to Bama. Their

1468
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 1: other losses to Ole miss I guess I guess you

1469
01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:47,439
Speaker 1: are what your record says you are. Now you see

1470
01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 1: why I call that one of the biggest lies in

1471
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:53,160
Speaker 1: college football. Hey, if everyone played the same schedule, have

1472
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,479
Speaker 1: at it. You are exactly what your record says you are.

1473
01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:59,840
Speaker 1: Does anyone in their right mind doubt what South Carolina

1474
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: would have done had they played Indiana schedule so far,

1475
01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:06,920
Speaker 1: all due respect, had they played Pitts schedule so far?

1476
01:17:07,520 --> 01:17:09,920
Speaker 1: Of course you don't. I'd love to do a little

1477
01:17:09,920 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: thought experiment and just toss South Carolina in the ACC

1478
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,720
Speaker 1: this year for all time, saying what would that look like. Now,

1479
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 1: of course we can't do that, No one's asking to

1480
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:20,920
Speaker 1: do that. But man, if you think that there are

1481
01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 1: twenty five better teams in the country than South Carolina

1482
01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:28,479
Speaker 1: right now, drugs choose zva, not drugs. See people who

1483
01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 1: sip on zvia understand South Carolina's top twenty five team.

1484
01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:33,719
Speaker 1: Dare I say they're a top twenty team, But they'll

1485
01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:36,360
Speaker 1: back it up for me. You guys will come around

1486
01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:38,880
Speaker 1: on South Carolina. You know it, and I know it.

1487
01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:41,200
Speaker 1: You'll end up having them ranked and it'll be too little,

1488
01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:47,400
Speaker 1: too late. And I don't know, I don't know. Those

1489
01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:51,519
Speaker 1: feel like ballots. Those feel like ap ballots that were

1490
01:17:51,600 --> 01:17:54,439
Speaker 1: mailed in. And I mean that in every sense of

1491
01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:56,880
Speaker 1: the word. You guys mailed this one in. South Carolina's

1492
01:17:56,880 --> 01:18:01,760
Speaker 1: the top twenty five team. All right, news, We're gonna

1493
01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:03,759
Speaker 1: do the show a little early Tuesday night, not because

1494
01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,160

01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:15,599
Speaker 1: little individual video. I'll react to the college football playoff

1499
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:19,799
Speaker 1: rankings individually. But we're gonna do the show at five eastern,
