1 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: Look, I'm looking on my phone. It is technically not 2 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: November yet, although by Saturday it will be November. So 3 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 1: as for now, we're jam back. We're high a top 4 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: of a breezy downtown Nashville, Tennessee. It's Thursday. It's October thirtieth, 5 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,639 Speaker 1: the year of our low, twenty twenty five. November is 6 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: upon us. Though we try and teach the same lessons 7 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: every year that Mema taught me growing up on this show, 8 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: and that is November is the longest month of the year. Now, 9 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 1: your calendar is going to tell you thirty days. That's 10 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,520 Speaker 1: not true. In college football, it's about seventeen weeks long, 11 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: especially if you're a contending team, especially if you're a 12 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt fan. 13 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 2: You know, especially if. 14 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: You're a Georgia Tech fan, especially if you're breathing this 15 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: air that you haven't breathed in a long time. It's 16 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: one thing to have enough gas to get to November, 17 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: but it's a whole nother thing to have enough gas 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: in the tank to get through November. Life changes for 19 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: you in November when you're a contender. So with that 20 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 1: in min, I got some upset alerts in front of 21 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,839 Speaker 1: me because That's what the Thursday show is all about. 22 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: On the campus of Pate State University, Go Frights. I've 23 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: got some things about the LSU coaching search that we 24 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: need to talk about. I've got a commissioner's poll that 25 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: is ready to drop. I've also got col Kublick joining 26 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: the show.

As we dive into the show tonight, 37 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: you've seen like I've seen the past few weeks. What's happened. 38 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: We've seen a bunch of games on Saturday. We've seen 39 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: some noteworthy outcomes, and then someone gets fired. And I 40 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: don't know that that's not going to continue to happen 41 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 1: this weekend. I mean, we're going to talk to Cublic 42 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: a little bit later. Kentucky Auburn.

That's all I need you 53 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: to do. Okay, Upsets, Here we go. The upset alert, 54 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: the upset Alert concern meter. I just tripped over myself 55 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: so that I could have Bradley take the side shot. 56 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: The upset Alert Concern meter is generated by flex Power. 57 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: They can generate any of your tailgates this weekend, best 58 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: generators on the market, But can they generate upsets well? 59 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: I've got six of them in my hand right now. 60 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: That indicates perhaps this is what we do on Thursday. 61 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,399 Speaker 1: We throw out some games scale of one to ten. 62 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: What is my concern? What is my upset alert concern? 63 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: First game? Penn State Ohio State. Everyone laughs, We should 64 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: just bring the laugh track back from the Tuesday Show. 65 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: This is a game of the year, right, No, No, 66 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: it just was in the preseason. And now yet another 67 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: lamb is served up for the slaughter in front of 68 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: Ohio State. Or are they unlike the previous lambs? This 69 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: is at least a top twenty five talent roster. Still, 70 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: what else can we say about Penn State this year? 71 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: Not all that much. They are coming off a buy 72 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: so is Ohio State. It is a super Bowl spot 73 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: for Penn State. But then again, Ohio State's used to 74 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: people treating them as their super Bowl. Penn State's got 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: to run the ball like forty five fifty times here 76 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: and just see what happens. Look, it could be that 77 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: Ohio State's run defenses rock solid. We're trying to nitpick here, 78 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: you know, we're trying to find potential deficiencies. They're not 79 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: gonna be glaring. It's Ohio State, it's the number one 80 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: team in the country. No one's even arguing that here. 81 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: The only thing that you may be able to say 82 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: about Ohio State. 83 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 2: Is well, who have they played? 84 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: And I make fun of people all the time, cause 85 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: like the Indianapolis Colts could descend into the sun Belt 86 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: and be the Indianapolis Colts in the sun Belt, but 87 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: people would say, yeh yeah, but who have they played? 88 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: It's the Colts. They're beating everyone by one thirty. Who 89 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: they played them? So Ohio State, who have they played 90 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: well compared to like Alabama schedule, not many, not many 91 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: worthy opponents. It doesn't matter if they're that good, they're 92 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,559 Speaker 1: that good. The one thing you're waiting to see is 93 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: is there somebody like Penn State, Purdue, Ucla, Rutgers, Michigan. 94 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: Is there somebody that exposes something even if they don't 95 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: beat them that makes you go huh. Let's keep an 96 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: eye on that for the playoffs. But as far as 97 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: the upset alert concern, it's like a two and a 98 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: half from me, Like, no way Ohio State's about to 99 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: let this happen. Ohio State is one fifteenth and explosive 100 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: play rate offensively, which can fool you until you realize 101 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: they're eighteenth in cap busters. Cap Busters are the huge 102 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: forty fifty plus yard plays, which means, hey, if you 103 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: pop the top, you don't have to keep hitting plays 104 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: on that drive. The drive's over. You just scored. So 105 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm putting a two and a half on this. I 106 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: candidly don't I expect it to be a very quick game. 107 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't expect it to be in doubt in the 108 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. That's where I am on that. Next up, 109 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: Texas Tech at Kansas State. This one's different. Texas Tech's 110 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: favored by seven and a half in Manhattan, Kansas, and 111 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: I need people to pay attention because nobody is. I 112 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: haven't heard much of a whisper about this game around 113 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: the country this week. You know what people are talking about. 114 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: Some of them are talking about Texas Tech. They're saying, uh, oh, 115 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: they got Brigham Young next week. Yeah, they do, but 116 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: they've got a game before that. 117 00:05:58,680 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: It's against Kansas State. 118 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: Kansas State though they suck, No, they did, but they've 119 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: won three or four. Because that's the funny thing that 120 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: happens when you keep playing football games. You kind of 121 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: flow in ebb and flow in ebb and I said 122 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: it in that order for a reason because that's kind 123 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: of what Kansas State season's been so far. But they've 124 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: scored forty plus in back to back games. It's a 125 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: massive look ahead spot for Briging or for Texas Tech. 126 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: But it shouldn't be because they've already lost a game, 127 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: so they're vulnerable. They're still bleeding a little bit from 128 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,799 Speaker 1: that Arizona State loss. They got back on track against 129 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State last week. But everyone body bags Oklahoma State. 130 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State shows up and all you do is unzip 131 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: the back so you can zip it back up and 132 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: then you toe tag him. You send them on their way. Well, 133 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: this is a different animal. This is Kansas State. It's 134 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: a really well coached team. What kind of Avery Johnson 135 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: performance am I getting here? Hey, Baron Morton starting for 136 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: Texas Tech. But the backups out for the year. Okay, 137 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: so we don't have anything to fall back on like 138 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: we have so far this year with Texas Tech. I'm 139 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: putting a seven on it. There are Sirius fall don't 140 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: lie to our implications on this game. I hope I 141 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: haven't been unclear there, wink nod. They got to get 142 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: the job done. Can't afford to lose this one. I'm 143 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: putting a seven on the Upsett Alert concern meter. Next up, 144 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: let's go to the SEC. I think people are falsely 145 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: believing that Ole Miss has just made it through the fog. 146 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: They went to Georgia, they lost, but they went to 147 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: Norman they won. And now it's kind of all right. 148 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: We can take a deep breath, and we can talk 149 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: about what seed we're gonna be in the playoff, and 150 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: we can talk about whether or not Lane's gonna leave. 151 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: And I'm sitting here the whole time, like, wait a second, 152 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: they're not off this week, and then other people are like, well, yeah, 153 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: but they kind of are because it's South Carolina. And 154 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, same one that led Bama in the fourth quarter, 155 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, but I mean that ripped their 156 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: soul out, didn't it. Well? Last year they played a 157 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: game like that against Alabama and they lost in heartbreaking style. 158 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: You know what they did the very next week, they 159 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: went on the road and smoked Oklahoma and it turned 160 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: their season around. And South Carolina is sitting here three 161 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: and five. They gotta win three to the next four 162 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: to even be Bowl eligible. It's gonna be a very 163 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: tall task. I will grant you that, But. 164 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 2: That team hasn't quit. 165 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: That team's fighting, and ole Miss is sitting here off 166 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: back to back high emotion spots on the road. You 167 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:20,679 Speaker 1: still have Leonora Sellers playing for South Carolina. You still 168 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: got the ability to somewhat maybe run the ball here, defense, 169 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: special teams, maybe a complimentary effort on the road. Ole 170 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: Miss is They're not just some team that rolls the 171 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: helmet out. You can't afford to think that way. So 172 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: I'm putting a five and a half on the upset 173 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: alert concern scale here. This is one that I just 174 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: wouldn't be totally shocked if things fell. The right way 175 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: to see is a very tight ball game in the 176 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Next up one of the emerging darlings of 177 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: the college football playoff picture, Georgia Tech, favored by five 178 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: and a half at NC State. N c State's claim 179 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 1: to fame this year is they're the only ones to 180 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 1: beat Virginia somehow, and it wasn't even a conference game 181 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: against somehow. I don't know. Their results at Georgia Tech 182 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,839 Speaker 1: are so tied to Haines King, which is a great 183 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: thing because Haines King is having a great year. But 184 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: if he doesn't have a great individual Saturday, they can 185 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: lose against anyone, cause there aren't you know, four or 186 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: five other folks that are really individually shining for them. 187 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: They're playing good enough to win, but Haines King's got 188 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: to show up. November, like I said, longest month of 189 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: the year. This is a classic case of a team 190 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: that's about to find out how long the month of 191 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: November can be. Georgia Tech run defense, what would you say? 192 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: What would you guess? Georgia Tech's ranked run defense eighty seventh, 193 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: Friends eighty seventh. Who has the ACC's leading rusher n 194 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: C State? Does Hollywood smothers? Do you smell what I smell? 195 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm just I'm putting an eight on 196 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: this game on the upset Alert concern meter. I have 197 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: moderate to severe concerns for Georgia Tech this weekend. Next up, 198 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: Cincinnati's at Utah and game days out there, and everyone's 199 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: got this game circled. And yet FanDuel looks and says, 200 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: eh Utah minus ten and a half, And everyone, as 201 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: far as I can tell, has put their hard earned 202 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: money behind Cincinnati. What do we make of lines that 203 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: make no sense. What do we do when the lines 204 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: make no sense? We run as fast as we can. 205 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 1: It's very scary. It's a good thing this game is 206 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: being played the weekend of Halloween. It's very scary stuff. 207 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: So we got Devon Dampierre against Brendan Soarsby really really 208 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: good quarterback match up here a couple of guys above 209 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: sixty five percent completion. Man, I told you guys the 210 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: other night. I was somewhat surprised to pull up our model, 211 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: which is not powered by FanDuel. It's brought to you 212 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: by fan duel. Well, but it's not connected the FanDuel. 213 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: But I told you in our model, Utah is the 214 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: highest rated Big twelve team, even above and beyond Texas Tech. Well, 215 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: this tracks like this point spread, as far as the 216 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: model's concerned, kind of makes sense. Now at that point, 217 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: you know, you could be driving around saying, oh, big deal. 218 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: You know models don't win games. Point spreads don't win games. 219 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 1: That's true, it's just predictive. Now we got to find 220 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: out how accurate the model is, how accurate the power 221 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: rating is Utah. You know, last time a bunch of 222 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: you watched them, they lost to bring him young. They 223 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: were minus two turnovers there, so the thinking is you 224 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: get home field at your back, maybe you flip the 225 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: turnover margin, or at the very least it's even I look, 226 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: I put an eight on this game. I'm very worried 227 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: for Utah. But our model thinks they win and cover, 228 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: and Vanduels got him at ten and a half. So 229 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: you're paying a premium if you think Utah is going 230 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: to cover. I don't know. I just don't. I've seen 231 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,959 Speaker 1: Utah have a couple of opportunities to run away from 232 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: folks this year, and they really haven't. So until I 233 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: see it, I hadn't seen it. I'm gonna put an 234 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: eight on the upset Alert concern meter and the game 235 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna be at, which we broke down the other night, 236 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 1: but I didn't want to circle around and quickly talk 237 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: about is Miami at SMU. Miami's favored by twelve and 238 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: a half. Now I have hit up our sources in 239 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: the weather community. I am the source low sixties at kickoff, 240 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: which for most of you is a lovely November day, 241 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: but it is basically the Arctic tundra for anyone from Miami. 242 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 1: So I am concerned here about the amount of long 243 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: sleeves that I'm going to see come out of that 244 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: locker room. I'm pausing for effect. I hope the people, 245 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: the proper parties that that is directed at heed that warning. 246 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: SMU is in a big bounce back spot. See everyone 247 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: else in the country saw SMU lose to Wake Forest 248 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: and they cast aspersions towards SMU. I look at it, 249 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: and I say, what better spot to bounce back? That 250 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: is what college football all about. That's what happens this 251 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: time of year, all the time. I think they're gonna 252 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: get an inspired effort from SMU. I already picked SMU 253 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: to cover this number earlier this week. You look, they 254 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: rushed the passer, they get after the quarterback. Defense is 255 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: not great at SMU, but they do get after the quarterback. 256 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: They're number one in takeaways as a result of that. 257 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: So if you can ambush Carson Beck and Miami can't 258 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: get the ground game going, there is upset potential here. 259 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: And remember Miami's another one of those teams still highly ranked, 260 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: but they've already lost. They lost to Louisville at home. 261 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: This is a seven for me. I'm putting a seven 262 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: on the upset alert, concerned, met there, still picking Miami 263 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: to win, still rolling with them to go to the playoff, 264 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 1: doing all of those things. But that doesn't mean I 265 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: can't be a little nervous. We're gonna be there, fueled 266 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: by Quick Trip. Quick Trip is fueling the Faultnut Lie Tour, 267 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: just like they fueled the whole New Saturday Tour and 268 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,599 Speaker 1: the Every Given Saturday Tour and the Once upon a 269 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: Saturday Tour. 270 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 2: Did they fuel all those? 271 00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. If they fueled all of them, I'm 272 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna remember them as fueling all of them. Look, 273 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: Quick Trip is open most of the time twenty four 274 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: to seven, unless they're remodeling Colbrew on tap, gasoline on tap, 275 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: snacks legit food. I would call snacks legit food. You 276 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: just want to go to the back and get a 277 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: protein shake, go ahead and do it.

We appreciate them. They are 280 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: the presenting partner of this show and the Fall Don't 281 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: Live Tour, and they will be right there side by 282 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: side with us in Dallas, Texas. Will be on the 283 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: sideline for that game Saturday morning, eleven am local time kickoff. 284 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: We got a game to break down here right quick 285 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: before I move on. I got some LSU coaching serch stuff. 286 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: I've got the commissioner's poll, so we still got a 287 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: lot to get to. You know, Florida Georgia happens this Saturday. 288 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: World's largest outdoor cocktail party known by no other name 289 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: on this show. Doesn't matter how much some corporate entity 290 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: pays to rename it. Nope, it was called that growing 291 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: up for me. It will always be that for me. 292 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: Georgia's won seven of eight. Actually, Georgie is undefeated in 293 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: the last eight years in non COVID world's largest outdoor 294 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: cocktail parties. Whatever the acronym would be there. Billi Goanzalez 295 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: is now the interim head coach at Florida. Kirby Smart, 296 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: I'm told, is still at Georgia, but it's going to 297 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: be Billi Gonzalez, And we don't know what Russ Calloway 298 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: is going to do this first time we've seen Billy 299 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: Napier not calling plays here, so we don't really know 300 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: what Florida team's going to come out of the tunnel. 301 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: We know the players, but we don't really know what 302 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: to expect. So what is Florida. That's the first question here, 303 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: because there is obviously the possibility that they've mailed the 304 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: season in. Now, if they've mailed the season in, if 305 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: you could tell me that that would be a padlock 306 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: stat that would be a paper popper. The end, Georgia 307 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: wins and covers, they win by twenty ballgame. If you 308 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: tell me that, I'm going to work off the theory 309 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: for the sake of this preview that that's not the case, 310 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,479 Speaker 1: that maybe we get an inspired effort from Florida. Historically, 311 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: that's the way it works in college football. For whatever reason, 312 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: you got some coaching turnover or your starting quarterbacks hurt, 313 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: and both of those scenarios tend to have the opposite 314 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: effect that you would expect them to have. Now, the 315 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: players liked Billy, and the players are also in a 316 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: situation where in the NIL era you're kind of wondering, oh, 317 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: where am I going to portal? Where am I going 318 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 1: to be this time next year? So it's a little 319 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: different dynamic. We're kind of in uncharted territory here. But 320 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: if you got a new offensive play caller Georgia in 321 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: the seventies, pass defense not a good pressure team. They're 322 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: in the one twenties. Sacking the quarterback. Lagway could have 323 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: a game here, could happen. It's in the cards, a 324 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: bunch of catbuster plays. Joey Agilar was twenty four to 325 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: thirty six against Georgia three seventy one, four touchdowns, two interceptions. 326 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: So I mean, I got a quarterback here for Florida 327 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: that's thrown nine of them already to Gunner Stockton's one. 328 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: So if it if it comes down to turnovers, don't 329 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: love it. Go ahead and turn out the lights for Florida. 330 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: But there is a world, I'm granting you this. There 331 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: is a world where Florida comes out and it's like 332 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 1: the version that played Texas and they're just they're clicking 333 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: and they're not turning the ball over. 334 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 2: That's a four quarter game. 335 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: Florida's got plenty good enough depth of talent to do 336 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: that to Georgia. Do I get another ceiling game from 337 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: Gunner Stockton. Florida defense should be healthier. That's the nature 338 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: of coming out of a bye. Gunner Stockton was needed 339 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: to win the Tennessee game early in the year, and 340 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: he did it on the road. He was needed in 341 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: the Old Miss game and that was at home, but 342 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: he did it. Will he be needed to win here? Now? 343 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: I believe in him if they call his number. Okay, 344 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: My follow up there when it comes to Georgia is 345 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 1: should you need it? Because I think about what I 346 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: saw Jake Roe talking about earlier today, and that is 347 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: the injury reports out for this game. There is no 348 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: Georgia offensive lineman listed for the first time all year. 349 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: Georgia's run the ball a lot better this year, thirty 350 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: third in the country right now, whereas they were in 351 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: the one hundreds this time last year. So if you 352 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: really want to find out what Florida has got left 353 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: in the tank, if you really want to find out 354 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: how much heart and soul's left in that team, run 355 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: the ball on them, cause if it's not there, it's 356 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: not gonna show up in the second half. And that's 357 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: how you remove all the variants of potential outcomes here. 358 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: You just run the ball successfully. You remove their will 359 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: to compete and their will to continue to sustain. And 360 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 1: that's one hundred percent in Georgiall win is that the 361 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: way this game plays out, watch that early on, there's 362 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: no way to know where Florida's head's at if I 363 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:42,959 Speaker 1: was a Florida fan, There's no way I can know 364 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: where this team's heads at. Neither team really gets to 365 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: the quarterback much. Neither of them put up a good 366 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: havoc raid or sack numbers. Like I said, though, one 367 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 1: quarterback's thrown nine picks, one of them's thrown one, and 368 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: Georgia's run defense pretty good. So I think DJ's gonna 369 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: have to win the game with his arm if he 370 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: does win it, Let's take a look at what the 371 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: model thinks. The fanduelign right now is Georgia minus seven 372 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: and a half because I have so much uncertainty about 373 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: where Florida is mentally, and I already think Georgia is 374 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: a team that is better and capable of scaling in November. 375 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: Just watch them. This would be theoretically where that starts. 376 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: I'm taking Georgia to win and cover. I think they're 377 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: gonna make a little bit of a statement, but people 378 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: won't make a big deal about it because all they 379 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: will see is, Wow, you beat a team whose season 380 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: is already mailed in. Well, I think college football is 381 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: a little more complex than that, So let's take a 382 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: look at it. That's one thing. If they beat him 383 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 1: forty to nine. It's another thing if they beat him 384 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: and you can tell what Florida fought here, it's got beat. 385 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at it. Let's keep an eye 386 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: on it. You're going down there to Jacksonville. Take flex 387 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: Power with you myflexpower dot com slash Josh Pate get 388 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: the I'm gonna call it the best portable generator on 389 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: the market. We have tested it at Peyton State. Literally 390 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 1: we tested it. We took it to a game a 391 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. Phenomenal, great results, great feedback from 392 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 1: the locals here too. We were in Nashville at the 393 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt game. So you need to power the tailgate, you 394 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: need to power anything. You just need to have a 395 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,239 Speaker 1: little safety valve. If storms come through one night, and 396 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: they will, one percent of your households have been through 397 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 1: a thunderstorm. We have that on good intel, good stats 398 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: and info on that. So flex Power big partner of 399 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: the show. They watched the show. They are actual friends 400 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: of the program, and they have something most of you need. Anyway, 401 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 1: if you don't have a backup generator, it's just Russian roulette. 402 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: Listen our air conditioners making a weird sound. Right now. 403 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: If I had a flex power generator in here, it's 404 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: quieter than that AC unit, And that AC unit's not 405 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: supposed to make noise, which lets you know how quiet 406 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: the flex power generator is. Let's continue. It's not that bad. 407 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: LSU's coaching search is taking more of a winding route 408 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: than from here to Chattanooga, and that is a winding, 409 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: winding route. Lookout mountain, you've been through there. It's tough, 410 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: it's little treacherous. Well, I try to tell you about 411 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: the political hands in the stovepot, and now the world 412 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: knows because the world saw the governor down there, Jeff Landry. 413 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: And if there was any doubt as to whether that 414 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: guy was governor of Louisiana, there was no more doubt 415 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: when he opened his mouth, was there. 416 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 2: Now. 417 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: I have no interest in talking about Jeff Landry's political 418 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: leanings or yours or mine. What I do have an 419 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 1: interest in talking about is how this affects the LSU 420 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: coaching search. I have a working theory about the LSU 421 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 1: coaching search, and it may also apply to other coaching searches, 422 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: but it applies to this one. For all I know 423 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna land Lane Kiffin or for all I know, 424 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,239 Speaker 1: they could go get Marcus Freeman for all I know, 425 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: because I don't know who they're gonna go get. I 426 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: don't know who they can get yet. It's very early. 427 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: They don't know who they can get because they don't 428 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: even know who's making the hire yet. They're waiting to 429 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: get a president put in place. And then then you've 430 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: got board of supervisors that answers to the governor who 431 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: says he's not going to be hiring the new coach. 432 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: But yet the people who are going to hire the 433 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: new coach have to answer to the person who says 434 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: he's not going to hire the new coach. So it's 435 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: it looks like a mess, feels like a mess. Will 436 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: it be a mess? If it is as it appears, 437 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: I think it has fundamentally impacted their ability to attract 438 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: quality candidates. Now it's early, it's not even November, as 439 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 1: you and I are talking. In other words, if I 440 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: am the head coach at Peyton State and I'm number 441 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: one on LSU's hotboard, Pete Nakos is called around and 442 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: he's got me listed number one, and it ends up 443 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: Pete right because he often is they call me today. 444 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying, no, hit me back in two weeks. Get 445 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: your affairs in order, hit me back in two weeks, because. 446 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 2: There's no way. 447 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: I just watched what I watched on my TV screen yesterday, 448 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: and I'm about to say, yeah, I'm happy to come 449 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: down there. 450 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 2: Nope. 451 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 1: I had someone explain this to me the other day, 452 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: perception versus reality, and they used the LSU job and 453 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: they said, what you think about the LSU job? I said, 454 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: I think it's a great job and they said why 455 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: so I just rattled off some of the usual bullet 456 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: points and they said, that just means it looks like 457 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: a great job. And I was like, okay, seems like 458 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 1: you got somewhere you want to go make your point. 459 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 1: And they were like, you ever seen a beautiful girl before. 460 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm married to one. And they said that's 461 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: adorable and I said, yes, she is. But he said, 462 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 1: think back, though, before you're married. Think back, and there's 463 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: a there's just a ten standing right here. You're a 464 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: little bit aways from her. You don't know anything about her, 465 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 1: but you see her and you say to yourself what 466 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 1: you say the same thing most guys would say, Wow, 467 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: I wish, I wish, I'd love to, and then you 468 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: get the opportunity, and then you find out what she's 469 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: really about, and you find out that looks were one thing, 470 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: but her mother is a nightmare and her friends are 471 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 1: all disasters, and she's got thirty seven different emotional baggage 472 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: issues that you never could have planned for. And you're 473 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: constantly miserable. But your buddies are looking at you and saying, 474 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: you got your dream girl. What's the deal? What's the problem? 475 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: That is the LSU job if it's not handled correctly, 476 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: because you get the most attractive girl on the block, 477 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: and because you get the most attractive girl on the block, 478 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: everyone's envious of you because from the outside it looks 479 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: like you got everything you could ever want. Unbeknownst to them, 480 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: all kinds of issues behind the scenes, but no one 481 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: is ready to listen to you complain because you're dating 482 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: or you're married to the supermodel. And that's the LSU job. 483 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: It actually works against you. The more attractive your job 484 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: is on the surface, it actually works more against your 485 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: ability to hire a quality candidate. The bigger a mess 486 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: it is behind the scenes, because if the ul Monroe 487 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,879 Speaker 1: job is a mess behind the scenes, no one talks 488 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: about it. But they also don't expect you to win 489 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: big at Uel Monroe. They expect you to win big 490 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: at LSU, and once you take the job, they figure 491 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: you got your dream job, and they're not interested in 492 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: why you're not winning. They don't care about alignment, they 493 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: don't care that you don't even know who your boss is. 494 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: They don't care about any of that. They don't care 495 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: that your NIL coffers aren't what they should be because 496 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: there's infighting with the boosters because some of them vote Republicans, 497 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: some of them vote Democrat, and a Republican governor puts 498 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 1: someone in that they don't align with politically, so they're 499 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: just gonna sit on their wallet. They don't care that 500 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: that's happening behind the scenes. They're just hating on you 501 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 1: because you're going eight and ford LSU. So if you 502 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 1: don't have a job, like theoretically, if James Franklin were 503 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: offered this job, he'd just take it regardless. But if 504 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin's being offered this job and he's got great 505 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: alignment and great NIL structure and great resources at all, miss, 506 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 1: you don't take the job unless you have absolute fundamental 507 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: guarantee and certainty that there's equal to or better alignment 508 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: and better ability to win where you're gonna go. I 509 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 1: don't know how anyone in good conscience can say that 510 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: about the LSU job right now, But they don't have 511 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: to say it right now. They've got some time. It's 512 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 1: a whole new world now where it's not December, it's 513 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: just now about to be November. You don't have to 514 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:05,479 Speaker 1: You're not. 515 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 2: You weren't. You weren't ever going to hire. 516 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: Anyone before Thanksgiving anyway, so it doesn't matter. But you 517 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: got work to do, and you got to do it quick. 518 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 2: Okay. 519 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: So I'm looking at Pete Nkos's hot board right now. 520 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin's in there one hundred percent, one hundred percent. 521 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: Lane's interested in that job. Marcus Freeman's on there. I 522 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: think there's a big difference in Marcus Freeman is interested 523 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: versus Marcus Freeman is serious. And I do not I 524 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: think anyone is interested in how they could do at LSU. 525 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: Everybody thinks about that, just like guys think about whether 526 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: or not they could win in the NFL. But that 527 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: doesn't mean everyone's looking for an NFL job. Or most 528 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: of them could even get an NFL job. Marcus Freeman 529 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: interested in LSU. I'm sure he's thought about how he'd 530 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: do in the SEC. Is he longing for it? Don't know? 531 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,959 Speaker 1: Don't know. And certainly, even in the best of cases, 532 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: if Marcus Freeman was looking for it, not coming down 533 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: there with with that circus right now that just got 534 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: put all over everyone's TV screen yesterday. Kenny Dillingham's on 535 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: this list, Jeff Brahms on this list, Eli Drinkwitz, Clark Lee, 536 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: John Sumral's on that list. I just want to give 537 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: you what my working theory is. And this is not 538 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: speaking about anybody in particular, but I could be talking 539 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: about the LSU job here because I actually think there 540 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: are guys not even listed there they could kill it 541 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,680 Speaker 1: at LSU. And that's more principled stance than me talking 542 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: about a specific candidate. I am a firm believer that 543 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: someone's Plan G is going to end up trumping what 544 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: their Plan A would have done for whatever reason, blessing 545 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: in disguise they miss out on Plan A, Plan B, 546 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: Plan C, whatever they got to settle for their sixth option. 547 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: Place like LSU, place like Penn State place, like Florida. 548 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: If you've got your affairs in order behind the scenes, 549 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: and you've got proper alignment, there are a lot of 550 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: guys that could win there if they staff right at LSU. 551 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: I'll go back to the same name I always use 552 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: on this show because I'm super high on him. Take 553 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: a Matt Campbell at Iowa State. Been there for a 554 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: long time. He's a great coach, he has good results 555 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: compared to comparable competition. He's got max roster and staff 556 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,479 Speaker 1: buy in. Guys love to play for him, Guys love 557 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: to work for him. They have players constantly take less 558 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 1: to play for them because they believe in the culture 559 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: of the program that much. And that is huge, huge 560 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: when you get into the kind of nil bidding wars 561 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 1: that you get into in the SEC and you can't 562 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: see through him. He's fully genuine and authentic. I'm thinking 563 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: about guys like that. I could just as soon describe 564 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: John summerl the same way. I could just as soon 565 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: describe Brent Key the exact same way. But look how 566 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: far down that list they are. My point is, any 567 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: of those names, if you plugged him into LSU and 568 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: there was proper alignment and they did put together a 569 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: B plus or better staff, They're gonna win. There's no 570 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: mist there. There's actually a little more mystery to me 571 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: about Lane than there is about some of these other guys. 572 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: If there's not good alignment there, none of them are 573 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: gonna win like you want them to. But if there 574 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: is good alignment, man, I think there's still high risk, 575 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: high reward with Lane. I don't think there's insanely high 576 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: risk with some of those other guys. So my list 577 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: may look a little different, if that is indeed the 578 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: way LSU's list looks, mine may look a little bit different. 579 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: But my point is I could win with a bunch 580 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: of guys down there if the alignment is in place properly. 581 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 1: November long month, everyone, very very long month. The LSU 582 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: job search, I think, is still one that other job 583 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: searches are working downstream of a little bit. But I'm mentioned, 584 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: are there candidates that they're interested in that are on 585 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: no hot boards? Sometimes yes, sometimes no, That's what I'm 586 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: interested in. All right, let's continue. What do I have 587 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: in my hand? The messioner's poll is in fresh off 588 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: the presses. I would say the paper's still hot, but 589 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: it's freezing in this room. Right now, these are rankings. 590 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: This is not Tuesday Night, This is not the japee pole. 591 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: These are rankings. If I was an AP voter, if 592 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: I was filling out my playoff committee ballot, This right 593 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 1: here is what it would look like. And we do 594 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: have some movement. It is generated by flex power. Look, 595 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,479 Speaker 1: flex power got no doubt what they can do for you. 596 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: They got no doubt they got the best generators in 597 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: the market. Do we have doubts about who the best 598 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: twenty five teams in the country are though? Yeah, maybe no, 599 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: no doubt at all. Look, I've got Washington ranked. Washington's 600 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: number twenty five. I was number twenty four. That's a 601 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: couple of Big ten teams that I think should be 602 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: ranked and are not. I do not have Texas in 603 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:50,959 Speaker 1: this thing. Texas continues to underwhelm. I know that they 604 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: are a two loss team. They had to fight from 605 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: behind on the road in Startville last week. The week before, 606 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: they struggled against a bad Kentucky team. I'm not giving 607 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: you credit just for winning games, because this is comparable. 608 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a comparative analysis, and I think 609 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: Washington and Iowa flat out have done more than Texas. 610 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: Right now. I got Utah at twenty three. Tennessee, I've 611 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: got ranked, but I've got them way lower than the 612 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: AP does. The AP's got Tenant. Sorry my kickstand on 613 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: the eye. Josh finally failed me. Didn't fail me the 614 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: other night though, that's when we got the breaking news. 615 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: Notice my insane focus here. Tennessee is fourteenth in the AP. 616 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: Pole I got them at twenty two. I'll tell you why. 617 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: I think they're being rewarded for losses to Alabama and Georgia. 618 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: Close losses. Fair. I gotta have a best win and 619 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: their best win, Jesse, what is it. It's like Arkansas 620 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: or something like that. So Tennessee's got Oklahoma this weekend, 621 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: and if they beat them, I think that will have 622 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: been Tennessee's best win so far. So Tennessee's okay, They're okay. 623 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: I just am a little bit lower than the AP 624 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: because I'm not automatically rewarding you for close laws. Is 625 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: that fair? Maybe not. I got Houston up seven spots. 626 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: I've got Houston ranked twenty one. Houston's impressing me, man, 627 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: I thought it was going to take at least one 628 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: more year. Houston's impressing me. Willie Fritz's name keep an 629 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: eye a little bit older. But then again, so it 630 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: was Kurtz Signetti. That doesn't matter. Michigan's at twenty. I 631 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 1: got Missouri down six spots to nineteen. And honestly, this 632 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: is a resume thing, right, so we're not projecting. I 633 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: project Missouri to lose more games cause their quarterbacks out 634 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 1: for the year. But I'm not going to punish them 635 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: for doing it until they do it. Because if you've 636 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: been wrong with even one prediction in your life, then 637 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: what you think is going to happen should not matter 638 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: in a resume based model. Like if God were filling 639 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: out an AP ballot, he can project he knows what's coming, 640 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: even in sports. I know it's debatable, I've always believed 641 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: that or he has the ability to know, so he 642 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: can go ahead and project Missouri to lose to A 643 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: and M. I cannot do that, at least on my 644 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: commissioner's poll ballot. Navy is at eighteen. The AP does 645 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: not have Navy ranked. The Unamerican AP does not have 646 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: Navy ranked. I do at eighteen, since he at seventeen, 647 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: Virginia at sixteen, Oklahoma is checking in down six spots 648 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: at fifteen. Big big game for Oklahoma this week, big 649 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: time Brent Vinnables six and eight, coming off a loss 650 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: at Oklahoma, and they're going to Kneeland fifteen versus twenty two. 651 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: Got Notre Dame at fourteen. Notre Dame I think has 652 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: better wins right now than Tennessee. See, they both got 653 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: close losses against good teams. Notre Dame's beaten Boise, they 654 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: just beat USC So Notre Dame's got better wins, so 655 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 1: they belong in the top fifteen. I don't think Tennessee does. 656 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 1: I don't think Tennessee belongs in the top twenty right now. 657 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: Louisville's number thirteen, Texas text twelve, Brigham Young eleven. Now, 658 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: notice I said to Utah, we've got them all the 659 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: way down at twenty three. But the JAP PEP pole, 660 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: which is a power rating, has Utah above every team 661 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: in the Big twelve. Just something to keep an eye 662 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: on there. Top ten got Orgon at ten, the AP's 663 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 1: got him at six. I keep looking and I keep 664 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: asking to have Orgon at six, just like I said 665 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 1: with Notre Dame, just like I said with Tennessee. You 666 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: got to tell me what the best win is their 667 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 1: best win continues to be Penn State, which I give 668 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,760 Speaker 1: them credit for. I am not one of these people. 669 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: Is that is retroactively removing credit. But you got to 670 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: remove a little credit because Penn State ended up being dogwater, 671 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: so organ at six in the AP I got him 672 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: at ten. They got kind of low key dominated by 673 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: Indiana at home. Now they got opportunities coming up. We're 674 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: gonna talk about it in a few minutes with Cubilia. 675 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 1: They got four losable games coming up to close out 676 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: the year. I got Vandy at nine. Big game this 677 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: week against against Texas. Georgia Tech's at eight, Miami's at seven. 678 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: Ole mess has jumped five spots. They are number six 679 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: right now. I've got Georgia at five. The next three 680 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 1: teams from four to two are Alabama, Indiana and Texas. 681 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 1: A and M. We felt like they were interchangeable. I 682 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: feel like if I wanted to put Bama as high 683 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: as two, I could. I could make a case for 684 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: Indiana at two. I can make a case for any 685 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: of those teams in any order. I put A and 686 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: M at two, Indiana at three, Bama at four, and 687 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: then Ohio State is still pretty solidly, I think the 688 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: number one team in the country. Just the thing to 689 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: remember this week is there a bunch of games like 690 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 1: Vandy I got them rank ninth, Texas not ranked. Texas 691 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,760 Speaker 1: a small favorite though. We've got Cincinnati the number nineteen 692 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: team going to play at Utah number twenty three, but 693 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 1: number twenty three is favored by ten and a half. 694 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,800 Speaker 1: So again, this is not a power rating. These are rankings. 695 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: This is where you deserve to be because of what 696 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: you've done on the field, not because of what a 697 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: model thinks you will do in the future. Important differentiator there. 698 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: We've waited for it and it's finally happened. What playoff contraction? No, 699 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 1: the FED dropped interest rates. What do you think I'm 700 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 1: talking about? It's great news. I know wages are flat, guys, 701 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: you think I'm not paying attention to wages? Of course 702 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: I am. Prices keep climbing though, and for many of you, 703 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: only way to make ends meet has been to lean 704 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: on the good old fashioned credit card.

Three great facts you've learned 796 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 1: about Kentucky football over the past few weeks. 797 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 2: Well, number one would be not going to be on 798 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 2: the sideline this week. I'll be in the booth with 799 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 2: Tom Hart. So that's a swing and a miss on 800 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 2: your part. Thank you for the disrespect. Yes, correct and 801 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 2: looking more and more likely maybe Kentucky again next week. 802 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 2: Cutter Bowley, I think has the skills to make this 803 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 2: team better than what people think they can be. The 804 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: offensive line can still grow a little bit more. Bottom 805 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 2: line is they gotta have seth mcgallan in a running back. 806 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 2: And those aren't really like three factual things that I've learned. 807 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 2: But Andre's Pete left tackle one of the most interesting 808 00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 2: characters in college football. This guy was recruited off of 809 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 2: an Indian Reservation, which is pretty amazing to think about. 810 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 2: And you hear stories from Mark Stoops or Eric Wofford 811 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 2: is offensive line coach, or his teammates. We talked to 812 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 2: Cutter Bowlie about a little bit this week and like 813 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 2: one of the most well thought out, like calm human beings, 814 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 2: like most interesting humans they've ever met. But get him 815 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 2: on the football field and he's ready to rip somebody's 816 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,319 Speaker 2: head off. So pretty cool kid. 817 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: One of the best you've ever seen recruited off in 818 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,680 Speaker 1: any of reservation, like top ten at. 819 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 2: Least well so, Eric Wolford told us his story about 820 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 2: when he was recruiting him that he comes and sits 821 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 2: down and it's like basically some kind of a tribal 822 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 2: council comes in and sits down with him. And he 823 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 2: was like, you had like multiple chiefs that came in. 824 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 2: And he's like, it is the only time that I 825 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 2: have been legitimately intimidated during the recruiting process, he said, 826 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: because I had to sell all of them on him 827 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 2: coming to play football for us. And talk to Mark 828 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,399 Speaker 2: Stoops about a little bit this week and I said, 829 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 2: the blueprint for that not He's like, he just laughed 830 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 2: and He's like, no, no blueprint for recruiting that yo 831 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: man at all, but they're happy to have him. Really cool. 832 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 2: I talked to him the last time we had him, 833 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 2: and just an awesome, awesome kid like reads books, always 834 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 2: asking like bush Hndon, the offensive coordinator, said that he 835 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:58,879 Speaker 2: was walking out of the hall the other day and he said, 836 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 2: what's the last book you read? So us just laughed. 837 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 2: He's like, dude, I'm coaching football. I'm trying to read 838 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 2: books right now, Like what are you talking about? But 839 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 2: that's just kind of KIDDI is. 840 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 1: So it's a pretty cool story that is shockingly similar 841 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 1: in description to how the LSU coaching search is going 842 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 1: down right now. Tribal councils, circular meetings, dark room, really 843 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: no blueprint for it. 844 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 2: So you and I normally just sit here and about 845 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 2: the dark rooms. They're just having press conferences, calling each 846 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 2: other out, Yeah, telling everybody what they're going to do 847 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 2: and not going to be able. 848 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 1: To do, which is frankly how it used to be 849 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 1: done and how it should still be done. In my opinion, 850 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: money ruins things. Money like calibrates things. Money should have 851 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 1: the opposite effect. Money should make you go full wild West. 852 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: It did once upon a time, we got great movies 853 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,280 Speaker 1: out of it in America. It should be that way again. Normally, 854 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: when you come on the show, we may or may 855 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: not have texted earlier in the day about one or 856 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,720 Speaker 1: two things we may or may not hit, but largely 857 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: we just ramble, sometimes coherently. Today though, I thought, maybe 858 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: a little structure. So we're at the dawn of November 859 00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: right now, it's going to be November by the time 860 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: the game are played this weekend. What I wanted us 861 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: to do is picture of the things that would be 862 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: the most shocking but somewhat believable that could take place 863 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 1: over the next month of the season. So I'm gonna 864 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: float you one and my first one, and I just 865 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: want you to react like scale of one to ten. 866 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 1: How shocking would this be to you? Is everyone is 867 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 1: just misreading Lane Kiffin. It's either he's gonna take the 868 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: Florida job. If he doesn't take the Florida job, it'll 869 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: be because he took the LSU job. Those are definitively 870 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 1: better jobs. I've seen reporting out there that everyone would 871 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,760 Speaker 1: be well, many people would be shocked if he stayed 872 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 1: at Old Miss and number one I'm not quite sure 873 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: people know how good he has it at all Miss, 874 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 1: or how good the infrastructure is it all Miss right now. 875 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 1: But forget about what everyone else knows, forget about what 876 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: you and I know. It matters what that guy thinks. 877 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: How much scale of one to ten? Are you shocked 878 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,800 Speaker 1: if he's just still there when all this dust. 879 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 2: Settles five point five on the pay meters? 880 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I went five and three quarters, So that's interesting. 881 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 2: You can go quarter point there you go. I don't 882 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 2: think I would be totally shocked. Now we're gonna look 883 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,520 Speaker 2: at these jobs and say, guys, that's Florida. Guys, that's LSU, 884 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 2: and that's fair, It's totally fair. But we saw Lane 885 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 2: knocking on the door of the playoff last year. It 886 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 2: looks as though he's in this year. That would be 887 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 2: one thing that I would be shocked about, as if 888 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 2: Ole Miss actually doesn't make the twelve team playoff this year, 889 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 2: based on what they've already done, the resume they have, 890 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 2: and then what lies in front of them. He's also 891 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 2: proven that his style of recruiting is very conducive for 892 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 2: today's college football. He's also proven that that can work 893 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 2: at Old Miss. He revamped the entire receiver room, he 894 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 2: had a first round quarterback leave, he had multiple guys 895 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 2: drafted early, not just on defense, but along his defensive 896 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 2: front seven and one of the best corners off the 897 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 2: board of the draft, and the defense hasn't taken a 898 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 2: big step back. I think he has the staff put 899 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 2: together that he wants, that he likes, that he thinks 900 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 2: he can go win with, and he's got the people 901 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 2: behind him to be able to play today's college football 902 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:04,319 Speaker 2: game when it comes to putting your ross together. I 903 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 2: imagine not a lot of people mess with him over there. 904 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 2: I imagine Keith Carter probably goes out of his way 905 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 2: to make sure Lane has what he wants, gets what 906 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 2: he wants. And it would be tough for me to 907 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 2: imagine you leaving a situation like that, believe it or not, 908 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 2: actually said that last time around, actually laid out in 909 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 2: the middle of a game, how good he has it 910 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 2: at old Miss right now and what he's done, and 911 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 2: then other people's words wanted to be misconstrued and forced 912 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 2: on me still are today. But nonetheless, Josh, I would 913 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 2: not be completely shocked if that this is actually a 914 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 2: bad game, because I say all the time nothing in 915 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 2: college football shocks me anymore, but I'll play along. 916 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, have we ever done an old miss segment on 917 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 1: the show that you didn't twist around into being about you? 918 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 1: By the way, does that ever happened? Will it ever happen? 919 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 2: Nocause I think we just did our first old miss 920 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 2: segment on your show? 921 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,919 Speaker 1: So all right, try and shot me. Hit me with something. 922 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 2: This one's out there now, I mean, this is stick 923 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:02,399 Speaker 2: with me. Maybe I should scale it down to two, 924 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna stick with three. Florida the Gators knock 925 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 2: off three ranked opponents the rest of the way through. 926 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: Oh no, so. 927 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:16,360 Speaker 2: Jesse, if you don't mind, if you can get the 928 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 2: Florida schedule up there for us from the corner, he wasn't. 929 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,760 Speaker 1: Gonna got Georgia this weekend. That's gotta happen. 930 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:22,320 Speaker 2: What else? 931 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 3: Uh? 932 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 2: So Florida's gonna do it. They're gonna knock They're gonna 933 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,359 Speaker 2: be at Kentucky. That wouldn't count as a ranked win 934 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:34,120 Speaker 2: at ole Miss Tennessee then Florida State, so they'd be 935 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 2: getting Georgia ole Miss in Tennessee, which, if you listen 936 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,720 Speaker 2: to our broadcast last week, Tennessee was up by forty 937 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 2: at this point, so I'm not sure why you would 938 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,360 Speaker 2: have still been tuned in. But we went through the 939 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,400 Speaker 2: schedule moving ahead for Tennessee and I kind of stepped 940 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 2: out away from everybody else and said, I think Florida 941 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:53,720 Speaker 2: is the most difficult team remaining on their schedule. Now, 942 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 2: if you're just talking stylistically personnel, still probably Vanderbilt, especially 943 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 2: the way they're playing as a team. But Florida being 944 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 2: the week before that game for Tennessee in Gainesville, with 945 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 2: possibly a little bit of look ahead that one bothers 946 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,680 Speaker 2: me for the Tennessee volunteers, and I just say, styles 947 00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 2: make fights here. The stretch play in the run game 948 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 2: would have to go for Florida. Jaden Bodge, Kobe Jackson 949 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 2: would have to be getting the ball going on the ground. 950 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 2: We don't know exactly what Russ Calloway's going to do 951 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 2: with the offense, how it's going to be different, it 952 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 2: won't be exactly the same. So what are your tendencies 953 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 2: that you're looking for here? From a Georgia perspective? Do 954 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 2: you know inside the red zone on third down from 955 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 2: the left hasse what they like to call you don't 956 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 2: so DJ Lagway would need to protect the football as well. 957 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 2: If that took place, a couple of those disruptors up 958 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 2: front defensively, which I think Florida has a handful of, 959 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 2: are going to need to be problematic. So I just 960 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 2: look at stylistically specifically for Old Miss and Tennessee, how 961 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 2: they can slow that game down. They can limit the 962 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 2: possessions of those two football teams and be problematic that way. 963 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 2: And then those are the Old Miss offensive line not 964 00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 2: as good as the Tennessee's, but how the Tennessee offensive 965 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 2: line functions with side protection, gap protection, which we talked 966 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 2: about on Cube Show this week. They have the ability 967 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 2: to penetrate, disrupting, cause problems there. So a lot would 968 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 2: have to go their way. But with a week off 969 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 2: before Georgia, you have some inherent advantages there. Should be 970 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 2: healthier and should be able to hide some things that 971 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:19,319 Speaker 2: you hadn't run yet this year. That's one that I 972 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 2: ask you, how much would it shock you if Florida 973 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 2: actually pulled it. 974 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 1: Off doing all three of them, It would be like 975 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 1: a nine point five on the shock scale. However, any 976 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:30,840 Speaker 1: individual game there, we talked about this, we wrote the 977 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: game down earlier on the show tonight they're playing Georgia. 978 00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 1: I think the huge differentiator when you look at conference 979 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 1: versus conference right now is look at Ohio State and 980 00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:42,560 Speaker 1: the gap between them and Penn State, and look at 981 00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: the gap between Georgia and Florida. One of those lines 982 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 1: is three touchdowns. One of those lines is one touchdown. 983 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 1: And so I mean that's the big disruptor piece. That's 984 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,240 Speaker 1: the thing I think that stands out about the SEC 985 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: right now when you get past the top layer of 986 00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 1: either of those conferences is if I'm going and you 987 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,280 Speaker 1: know how deep I have to go in the SEC 988 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,840 Speaker 1: and the standings to get to Florida, I'm probably getting 989 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 1: towards like Michigan State, Rutgers, whatnot. In the Big Ten. 990 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 1: There just is no DJ lagway there. There is no 991 00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 1: athletic profile there. It's the same way with watching Bama 992 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 1: play South Carolina last week. South Carolina not a good team. 993 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: South Carolina may have had the three best athletes on 994 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 1: the field because you got Harbor out there, you got 995 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 1: Dylan Stewart out there, you got Lenora Sellers. Ole Miss 996 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 1: has got to deal with that team this weekend. This 997 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 1: would this would greatly surprise me. It would mildly shock me. 998 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 1: It would not totally. That's a good one, It would 999 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 1: not totally shock me. 1000 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 2: What about two? What about two? Where would two be 1001 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 2: on the shocks? Who would be. 1002 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,839 Speaker 1: Like in like a seven point seventy five or and eight, 1003 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 1: I would be more surprised. It's so this weekend. I 1004 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: don't even need the whole game, Like, just show me 1005 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:51,319 Speaker 1: how they play in the first half this weekend. If 1006 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: you were to guarantee me they're still checked in, just guarantee. 1007 00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: I don't need anything else. I don't need to guarantee 1008 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 1: of health or anything. Just tell me they're checked in, 1009 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 1: and I'm going to get them in November. Whatever their 1010 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:06,359 Speaker 1: fastball is, Yeah, I could see that I got one 1011 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 1: for you. So right now, compared to those two conferences 1012 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 1: we just mentioned, the ACC has been pretty inferior as 1013 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 1: a league this year. I think most people would agree. 1014 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:22,359 Speaker 1: What would you say if I told you they get 1015 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 1: three teams in the playoff. 1016 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 2: I don't think that I would be completely shocked, because 1017 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,719 Speaker 2: I already feel like, right now, Georgia Tech has a 1018 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 2: great chance of getting in. Miami has a great chance 1019 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 2: to get in. I'm gonna have to cheat a little 1020 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 2: bit here, and just kind of look, I mean, the 1021 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 2: third team that's gonna sneak in If you are projecting 1022 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:45,560 Speaker 2: right now, are you going Louisville will be the team 1023 00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 2: that sneaks in. It is next in line. 1024 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,319 Speaker 1: Wow, just forget about it for you. Virginia just doesn't 1025 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:51,880 Speaker 1: exist to you. 1026 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,240 Speaker 2: Actually, I think Virginia has a very difficult game this weekend, 1027 00:51:56,320 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 2: to be honest with you, after playing maybe four close 1028 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 2: games in a row at North Carolina, then now they 1029 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 2: got to go to Cal for an earlier kick. I 1030 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 2: don't like them in that game at all. Actually think 1031 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:11,359 Speaker 2: Cal wins that game with good quarterback play and then 1032 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 2: taking advantage of a team that had to travel. You're 1033 00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 2: looking at at Duke a little bit later in the year, 1034 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 2: massive rivalry game, which the trinket that they play for. 1035 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 2: I do not know Virginia and Virginia Tech at the 1036 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 2: end of the season, but we know you don't just 1037 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,520 Speaker 2: walk into that game and feel like you're gonna get 1038 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 2: a win, ever, even when the coach has been fired. 1039 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 2: So I think Virginia is a little bit one dimensional. 1040 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 2: I don't I don't like their makeup as much as 1041 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 2: I do. Even Louisville's honestly, cause I think I think 1042 00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 2: Louisville has more guys that can take over game up 1043 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 2: front on defense. So I would tell you that I 1044 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 2: was surprised, but not totally surprised. Here's the problem with 1045 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,399 Speaker 2: conversations like this, whether we're talking, does the Big ten 1046 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:52,240 Speaker 2: exten past where everybody thinks they are? Is the SEC 1047 00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 2: going to be less than what everybody thinks they are? 1048 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 2: Does the acc go forward one? It's so dependent on 1049 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 2: those other leagues and who steps up and who falls off, 1050 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,600 Speaker 2: We're gonna get upset, Josh, Like, this is the perfect weekend. 1051 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:06,200 Speaker 2: You and I talked about this earlier today. No one's 1052 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 2: making a big deal out of a lot of games 1053 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,480 Speaker 2: this weekend. Nobody's saying, oh, I can't wait to watch 1054 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,919 Speaker 2: that one. Better pay attention to this one, watch out 1055 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 2: for that game. This is when it all goes to 1056 00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:17,879 Speaker 2: hell in a hand basket. Normally, like the last three 1057 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 2: or four years, we've had this weekend where everybody was 1058 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 2: about to sleepwalk through it and all of a sudden, 1059 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:27,000 Speaker 2: mayhem just complete playing nose dives into the field and 1060 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,359 Speaker 2: we don't know what's going on. So this is gonna 1061 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 2: be one of those weekends I think we're gonna get 1062 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 2: a couple we're not expecting, and it's only gonna get 1063 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 2: worse through the regular portion of the season because we're 1064 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 2: gonna have more injuries and more guys are gonna be 1065 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 2: dinged up, and we don't have near the depth to 1066 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:41,799 Speaker 2: help these teams get through the last month of the 1067 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 2: season that we expect them to. 1068 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,319 Speaker 1: All due respect to the Commonwealth Cup, a game in 1069 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:48,840 Speaker 1: which you're right, you can't just walk in and expect 1070 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,720 Speaker 1: to win. You mentioned it depends. 1071 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 2: This isn't an actual cup that they play for. I 1072 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:53,799 Speaker 2: haven't seen it. 1073 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 1: The Chalice and actual chalice. Actually, yes it is, but 1074 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:59,439 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter here. It matters here Now I say 1075 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 1: that there is a statue of a pig behind me. 1076 00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:05,360 Speaker 1: So some of these trophies obviously do exist. Others exist 1077 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: in your heart and your memories. The necklace and Titanic, 1078 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,240 Speaker 1: or Jack himself, it exists now only in our memory. 1079 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 2: What was about to say, say seven on the surprise scale, Yes. 1080 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: That's a seven three in is only a seven. 1081 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 2: Seven and a half. 1082 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 1: It's at least an eight. It's at least an eight. 1083 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 1: But back to your. 1084 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 2: Point, depended on so many other teams, though it could 1085 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:30,320 Speaker 2: easily happen. 1086 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 1: Yes it is, Yes it is. But if I were 1087 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: sitting in the Big ten's chair right now, or I 1088 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 1: was sitting in the SEC's chair, you at least have 1089 00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: to admit, as crazy as it is right now, first 1090 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 1: week of November, our fate depends on them too. Like, 1091 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,399 Speaker 1: here's what I'm trying to imagine. We all know that 1092 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 1: a Virginia at eleven and one is not a comparable team. 1093 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,319 Speaker 1: At least I think we know quality of team would 1094 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,360 Speaker 1: not measure up. They would be. We would have to 1095 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: go with the whole hypothetical point spread to prove our 1096 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 1: point that be double digit dogs against anyone. Don't even 1097 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 1: want to wade into those waters yet. What I'm asking 1098 00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: is if the committee really does, just have it, stare 1099 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: them in the face. So here would be the scenario 1100 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 1: for anyone listening at home. Virginia's a one lost team 1101 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 1: right now. Somehow they're undefeated in conference play even though 1102 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,879 Speaker 1: they're losses to a team in their conference. Don't ask 1103 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:18,359 Speaker 1: me to make sense of it. It just just what 1104 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,400 Speaker 1: it is. Virginia wins out, they go to Charlotte, they 1105 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:25,400 Speaker 1: win the ACC title game. They're in Georgia Tech wins out, 1106 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 1: they go to Charlotte and lose, Georgia Tech at that 1107 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:32,759 Speaker 1: point would be undefeated, way inside the top ten going 1108 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: into their conference championship game. They will have beaten Georgia 1109 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 1: in route to Charlotte in a non conference game, so 1110 00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech would be in. Like, I don't know how 1111 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: the committee looks at eager of them and says they're out. 1112 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,439 Speaker 1: Now here's where it gets interesting, Bradley, if you got 1113 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,880 Speaker 1: Louisville's schedule for me, and I don't know he does, Boom, 1114 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: look at this Louisville, if they just went out, they 1115 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 1: would have wins over Miami already. They'd have a win 1116 00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:00,239 Speaker 1: against Clemson coming up at SMU. Now they wouldn't go 1117 00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: to Charlotte. Are they gonna tell eleven and one Louisville 1118 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,120 Speaker 1: they're not in. I don't think they would. So Louisville 1119 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 1: would be in. And we've gotten three deep there and 1120 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 1: we have not mentioned Miami, and believe it or not, 1121 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 1: no one in the ACC actually plays each other. So 1122 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:18,080 Speaker 1: Miami could also win out and they could be eleven 1123 00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:20,879 Speaker 1: and one. This is a nightmare for the SEC. It's 1124 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: a nightmare for Notre Dame because Notre Dame would fall 1125 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:26,880 Speaker 1: off in the head to head comparison against Miami because 1126 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 1: Miami would get the heads upslot against them, plus that 1127 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 1: have one fewer losses. So as much as yeah, the 1128 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 1: ACC's fate rests on what happens in these other conferences. 1129 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 1: Here's what I'm asking you, and this is the scenario. 1130 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: Let's say, no matter what happens in these other conferences, 1131 00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 1: I've got a one loss conference champ Virginia. I've got 1132 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 1: a one loss conference champ runner up in Georgia Tech. 1133 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 1: I got an eleven and one Louisville with quality wins. 1134 00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 1: I got an eleven in one Miami with quality wins. 1135 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 1: Regardless of what happened elsewhere. Do they have the stones 1136 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 1: on that committee to look at one or more of 1137 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:04,680 Speaker 1: those teams with those resumes and say, sorry, you're not 1138 00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:06,560 Speaker 1: good enough, we don't have room for you. 1139 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 2: Here are you now asking me about four getting in, which, 1140 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,280 Speaker 2: by the way, I just want to let me rewind 1141 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 2: here by showing the smoothly paved four lane interstates that 1142 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 2: those teams have the rest of the way, I feel 1143 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 2: like you just made my argument that this is not 1144 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 2: an eight or a nine on the surprise scale that 1145 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 2: this could more easily happen than a lot of people believe. 1146 00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 1: You don't even see the black eyes. You don't even 1147 00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 1: see that on the road because you've been used to 1148 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:34,280 Speaker 1: hot weather. You've been complaining about eighty degrees at kickoff. 1149 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 1: You can't see the black eyes. You live in Birmingham, 1150 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,919 Speaker 1: You are privileged. You don't understand how this stuff works. 1151 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,440 Speaker 2: In November, I'm not going to say, regardless of what 1152 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 2: happened in those leagues, that four would get in. At 1153 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:49,440 Speaker 2: that point, the difficulty comes. And this is where, similar 1154 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 2: to Florida State a couple of years ago, we are 1155 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 2: going to have full rage from one fan base, be 1156 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 2: it Louisville or Miami, who would not get in if 1157 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:01,440 Speaker 2: both of those teams were there, specifically if the team 1158 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 2: with the head to head win did not get in. 1159 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 2: But you tell me, at that point, some of this 1160 00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 2: still depending on what happens. Who has the better resume, 1161 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:13,479 Speaker 2: Miami or Louisville. Right then, you gotta win over Notre Dame, 1162 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 2: you gotta win over South Florida. You beat Florida, who's 1163 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 2: not a great football team, but it's an SEC win. 1164 00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 2: You're gonna get credit for that. This may come down 1165 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 2: to if that were to happen and one of those 1166 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 2: two needed to be picked, because I'm with you Virginia obviously, 1167 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 2: in Georgia Tech runs the regular season, I don't care 1168 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,680 Speaker 2: what happens after that. They're in. You are in one 1169 00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:34,240 Speaker 2: hundred percent with that win against Georgia in the last 1170 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 2: game of the season done over. So then we pick 1171 00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:40,840 Speaker 2: between these two if that scenario plays out, I wonder 1172 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,880 Speaker 2: who they would look at as having the stronger finish 1173 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 2: because it's a little bit of a coin toss here 1174 00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 2: when you look at these two schedules down the way, 1175 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 2: I actually might lean Miami just a little bit more. 1176 00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 2: With the game at SMU at Virginia Tech. By the way, 1177 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 2: that game that pit terrifies me. If I'm a Hurricane 1178 00:58:58,000 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 2: fan right now, that late in the season, I do 1179 00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 2: not like that with the defensive one that's active and 1180 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 2: a quality quarterback. But I don't know who's going to 1181 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:07,959 Speaker 2: gain more points with the committee on the way out here. 1182 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 2: Now you get an SEC opponent if you're Louisville. It's 1183 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,640 Speaker 2: not a good Kentucky team, but you at least get 1184 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,360 Speaker 2: that to sort of hang your hat on at v 1185 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 2: Tech not great, Calwyn would be nice. Clemson's still gonna 1186 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 2: make people happy. People in that committee are still going 1187 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 2: to say, oh, but they beat Debo and then you're 1188 00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:26,720 Speaker 2: at SMU. So I don't know if you could really 1189 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 2: go one way or the other as to who has 1190 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 2: the stronger finish, But maybe it's who wins more points 1191 00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 2: with this committee for the next month, or then does 1192 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 2: it just come down to the head to head and 1193 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:37,800 Speaker 2: they say, you know what, we'll make this real easy. 1194 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:39,480 Speaker 2: That team beat that team therein. 1195 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:41,920 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any path where if both of 1196 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 1: them have one loss, Miami's resume can be definitively better 1197 00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: than Louisville's at this point to where the head to 1198 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 1: head doesn't get drawn in, like that's the whole rule, 1199 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:51,680 Speaker 1: right When McIlroy and those guys sit around the desk 1200 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 1: and they all go over the bylaws that are guarded 1201 00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:57,480 Speaker 1: with lock and key, they say, the only time head 1202 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,080 Speaker 1: to head doesn't matter is if someone's unequivocally better and 1203 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:02,400 Speaker 1: someone else and if they're not, then the head to 1204 01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 1: head comes in. And by the way, the head to 1205 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 1: head was on Miami's home field, so coming off a 1206 01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 1: buy not that that matters, but there's no excuse, like 1207 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 1: if it comes down to comparable Miami Louisville, Louisville's got 1208 01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: to get the nod. I don't know how they don't. 1209 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,360 Speaker 2: Yet they don't we riot and I think rightfully so, 1210 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 2: I mean it's we beat you. Yeah, like you can 1211 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 2: you can make the argument of if this team's unequivocally better, Well, 1212 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 2: hold on a second check score r H. We're done here. Really, 1213 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 2: there's no more debate. Like I saw the scoreboard, we 1214 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 2: have photographic and actually video evidence of it that we 1215 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:40,040 Speaker 2: beat you. Nothing else should be discussed at this point. 1216 01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 2: We're good. 1217 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 1: You have an opportunity right now to just enrage the 1218 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 1: entire not the entire state of Texas Longhorn Nation because 1219 01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: you got a little scenario. It's not that you're predicting it. 1220 01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 1: And let's let's make sure we caveat this. This certainly 1221 01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 1: is not your prediction. However, this is a crazy world 1222 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: and whence we live it is November, longest month of 1223 01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 1: the college football year. What do you think I think 1224 01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 1: could happen to Texas? 1225 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 2: Spoiler alert, I do think we need to triple asterisk 1226 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 2: these with We're not predicting these similar to the Florida 1227 01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 2: discussion earlier. We don't saying we think that's going to happen, 1228 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 2: but if it did, how much would it shock you? Josh? 1229 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 2: If Texas won one more game the rest of the season, 1230 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 2: you didn't have. 1231 01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 1: To throw it. 1232 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 4: But Vandy loss, all right, and Bandy at home, and 1233 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:36,000 Speaker 4: at the end of the year loss at Georgia after Vandy, oh, buddy, 1234 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 4: and then Arkansas would be your other game, which I 1235 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 4: would be giving you the win for. 1236 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:41,720 Speaker 1: There. 1237 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 2: I think the wrong team's favored this weekend. I'm not 1238 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 2: afraid to say that I think Vanderbilt is a better 1239 01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:52,920 Speaker 2: football team in my mind at Georgia. I think we 1240 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 2: not only know that mentally and emotionally how Georgia has 1241 01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 2: handled that football team, but physically what's happened. And this 1242 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 2: is not a more physical Texas football team that it 1243 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:03,840 Speaker 2: was a year ago, which Georgia not more physical than 1244 01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 2: they were a year ago either, But I would give 1245 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,080 Speaker 2: Georgia the advantage in that game. Arkansas is going to 1246 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 2: have meaning for a lot of different reasons for a 1247 01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 2: lot of different people. But I don't see a lot 1248 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 2: of stops in Arkansas's future in that game, and then 1249 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:16,800 Speaker 2: Texas A and M looks like one of the best 1250 01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:19,600 Speaker 2: three best two football teams in America right now. I 1251 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:23,160 Speaker 2: think that the matchup stylistically between those two, You've find 1252 01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:25,440 Speaker 2: very little ways to convince yourself that Texas was going 1253 01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 2: to win that football game. So on the meter, oh shock, 1254 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:32,360 Speaker 2: where would you have it fall if I told you 1255 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,840 Speaker 2: Texas was going to win one more game this season. 1256 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 1: When you floated this to me earlier today, I thought 1257 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 1: it was going to be a nine or higher. In 1258 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:43,560 Speaker 1: my head, I think it's like a eight. I mean, 1259 01:02:43,600 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 1: if they lose this weekend, snowballs kicked down the hill. 1260 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:50,160 Speaker 1: So if they lose, in you erroneously, but you claim 1261 01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 1: the wrong teams favored this weekend. But if you're right, 1262 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 1: on the off chance that you're right, then it becomes 1263 01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:58,800 Speaker 1: a two out of three thing. And Georgia, I cannot 1264 01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: count on Texas cycle logically, I don't even need to 1265 01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 1: know about the matchup just from the neck up. I 1266 01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 1: can't count on them to go in there and do that. 1267 01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 1: Plus you are of the opinion, and I agree with you. 1268 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:09,400 Speaker 1: Georgia could be one of those get hot at the 1269 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: right time type candidate teams. Here in November. Yep Son, 1270 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ride with you there A and m. You 1271 01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:17,840 Speaker 1: saw what they just did. You saw what they did 1272 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 1: to LSU and their home building. I don't care that 1273 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:22,680 Speaker 1: they go into Daryl Royal Field. I don't care about that. 1274 01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, that Arkansas game there, I think you may 1275 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,160 Speaker 1: be on to something here. And I don't like it 1276 01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 1: because I picked Texas to win this weekend. I don't 1277 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:36,000 Speaker 1: love this, but I do think this actually doesn't shock me. 1278 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 1: And then there's all kind of uncomfortable conversation. Basically, we 1279 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 1: just copy and paste the Ryan Day conversation last year 1280 01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 1: to Sark, only Sark doesn't get to go and get 1281 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:46,360 Speaker 1: a redo in the playoff because they wouldn't be anywhere 1282 01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 1: near the playoff. 1283 01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:51,920 Speaker 2: No, in those I think those conversations would be erroneous, honestly, 1284 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 2: because you're just not going to be an elite team 1285 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:58,360 Speaker 2: at the top of college football every year. With how 1286 01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:01,520 Speaker 2: this sport is situated right now, it's it's not possible 1287 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:03,760 Speaker 2: to go do that each and every year. Sarks recruited 1288 01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:06,640 Speaker 2: at a high level, He's had people come in play 1289 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 2: at a high level. He's had teams in the postseason. 1290 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,800 Speaker 2: But if certain things didn't work out this year. I 1291 01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 2: don't think you begin those conversations not me at least, 1292 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:16,000 Speaker 2: I'm not going to I'm. 1293 01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,000 Speaker 1: Gonna give you one more here as we head out 1294 01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 1: of here, the Big Ten only getting two teams in 1295 01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 1: the playoff one to ten shot meter. 1296 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,440 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you an eight only because it's the 1297 01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:34,680 Speaker 2: Big Ten. And I think we just assume, and you 1298 01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:37,760 Speaker 2: and I have had this discussion multiple times about our 1299 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 2: old school college football brains and how it's really taken 1300 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 2: a long time for some of that to change and 1301 01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:46,439 Speaker 2: morph and be different. We all look at the Big 1302 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 2: Ten in the SEC is just running college football, and 1303 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 2: there are multiple meanings to that. Even Indiana's in. I 1304 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 2: feel like Ohio State's in. I don't know what would 1305 01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:00,360 Speaker 2: have to happen exactly to Oregon to not it in. 1306 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:02,800 Speaker 2: I don't think that there's really another team that we 1307 01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 2: would look at there and say, okay, I realistically see 1308 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 2: a path for you to probably find your way in 1309 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:10,280 Speaker 2: with what lies ahead and with what kind of a 1310 01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:13,439 Speaker 2: football team they've looked like this season. But to see 1311 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:18,200 Speaker 2: those three in, I would say absolutely two would just 1312 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:22,840 Speaker 2: be I don't think that I could. I would be 1313 01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:24,680 Speaker 2: it'd be a ten out of ten on the shock 1314 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,640 Speaker 2: meter if only two got in. And if you're telling 1315 01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 2: me three are going to get in, I would say likely. 1316 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 2: But I don't know if I could sit here and 1317 01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 2: look at this and say that there's a lot of 1318 01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:35,320 Speaker 2: other teams that I have a lot of confidence in, 1319 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 2: but we just expect the SEC Big ten are going 1320 01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:41,320 Speaker 2: to What was the majority of our offseason conversation that 1321 01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:45,120 Speaker 2: these conferences wanted what four automatic bids every year? Yep, 1322 01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 2: five automatic bids every year. So that's where I think 1323 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 2: a lot of our brains are is just that the 1324 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 2: other leagues aren't even close. Their teams can't keep up. 1325 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:53,800 Speaker 2: They're not going to be able to keep up with 1326 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:57,360 Speaker 2: these two leagues. Therefore, by default, the Big ten SEC 1327 01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 2: are gonna have three in and then just take your 1328 01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:00,800 Speaker 2: picks of the Maybe he's with the five or six 1329 01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:02,840 Speaker 2: other teams that we think should get in but probably 1330 01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:05,040 Speaker 2: won't because somebody goes undefeated in a lesser conference. 1331 01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:07,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll float you that. So firstly, I mean, I 1332 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 1: know a lot of you need tickets this weekend.

If you're 1348 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 1: going to the Texas Vandy game. Look, man, Texas fans, 1349 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:49,560 Speaker 1: I'm told every one of you are wealthy beyond measure. 1350 01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,000 Speaker 1: But on the off chance that you're not, you're looking 1351 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,880 Speaker 1: to save some money. Seat Geek paid ten at checkout, 1352 01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 1: So he's dumped out on us. Anyway, what I was 1353 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,960 Speaker 1: talking about with that, as we wrap up here, cublic 1354 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:05,120 Speaker 1: bailed on us. As I was talking about. Here's the 1355 01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:10,120 Speaker 1: big ten thing. I was thinking to myself, Ohio State, Indiana, Oregon. 1356 01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 1: That's just how I always hear that big ten echo 1357 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 1: in my head. That's what rattles around. Ohio State's gonna 1358 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:18,360 Speaker 1: make this playoff. I got virtually no doubt about that. 1359 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 1: I cannot see Indiana dropping off. I suppose it could happen, 1360 01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 1: but you'd be really hard pressed to convince me that 1361 01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 1: the Signetti's throwing one oh four on the black right now. 1362 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:33,400 Speaker 1: I really have trouble envisioning them lose their fastball just 1363 01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:35,760 Speaker 1: late in the year could happen. It's what Novembers four. 1364 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 1: The Oregon example is the one I still believe in Oregon. 1365 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:42,600 Speaker 2: But if there is. 1366 01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 1: One out there that's a pretend contender, it would be Oregon. 1367 01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 1: And they got to go to Minnesota still, or they 1368 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 1: got to go to Iowa still, and I was sitting there. 1369 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:52,800 Speaker 1: They're coming off a by like I always got a 1370 01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:55,200 Speaker 1: couple of losses that are pretty close. We got them 1371 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:58,120 Speaker 1: ranked JP Pole has them top twenty five. They've also 1372 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:01,720 Speaker 1: got usc second last week, and it's in autsin. But 1373 01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 1: so was the Indiana game, and they got to go 1374 01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 1: to Washington. I just kind of skipped over Minnesota there 1375 01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 1: like legitimately, they are four losable games left. Every game 1376 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:13,600 Speaker 1: Oregon plays is losable. They could also buzz saw all 1377 01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 1: four of them, at which point this is a moot point. 1378 01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:17,600 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying, if Oregon doesn't make it in, 1379 01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 1: then he just missed all of my point. But trust me, 1380 01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:24,120 Speaker 1: I just made great points there, Ohio State. I'm gonna 1381 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,840 Speaker 1: count them in Indiana. I got a hard time seeing 1382 01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:29,800 Speaker 1: them miss out. But sir, we just looked at the 1383 01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:32,320 Speaker 1: Oregon schedule and we know they got they gotta go 1384 01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:34,920 Speaker 1: to Iowa next weekend. They got Minnesota at home, they 1385 01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:37,360 Speaker 1: got u USC at home. Then they go to Washington 1386 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:40,559 Speaker 1: and you know it's right now, it's a slam dunk 1387 01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 1: three teams for me in the Big Ten, but Oregon's 1388 01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 1: the one where after that Indiana result in autsin. I 1389 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:48,840 Speaker 1: think it's kind of got a lot of people with 1390 01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 1: a yellow caution light around Oregon's team right now. Now. 1391 01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 1: I look at it the opposite. I say, man, they 1392 01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 1: went wire to wire last year and they didn't get 1393 01:08:56,400 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 1: They didn't really taste that blood until it was too 1394 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 1: late in the playoff. Maybe tasting early in the season 1395 01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:05,480 Speaker 1: yields dividends for them, but that still involves them executing 1396 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:08,000 Speaker 1: and winning the games. But my point is they if 1397 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:10,719 Speaker 1: they stumble a couple more times and they got four 1398 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,639 Speaker 1: losable games left, you're looking at Ohio State, You're looking 1399 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:15,599 Speaker 1: at Indiana, and you're looking at a great, big question 1400 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 1: mark past that in the Big Ten right now, because 1401 01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:20,400 Speaker 1: I think there's such separational like there's such fall off 1402 01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: after those top three teams. 1403 01:09:24,040 --> 01:09:27,800 Speaker 2: I think you probably changed my believability rate with this 1404 01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,200 Speaker 2: when you went through that endo that schedule, And even 1405 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:33,120 Speaker 2: though you may think the chances of that happening, be 1406 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:34,960 Speaker 2: it one or two more losses for Oregon are a 1407 01:09:34,960 --> 01:09:37,559 Speaker 2: little bit less than mine. I've gotten a little bit 1408 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,719 Speaker 2: more on board with you, and more so situationally, having 1409 01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 2: those teams back to back to back. Having to go 1410 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 2: to Iowa is one at this time of the year 1411 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:48,320 Speaker 2: that I don't like for Oregon really at all. I 1412 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:51,800 Speaker 2: do think USC offensively can keep up with Oregon, and 1413 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:53,920 Speaker 2: I think at Washington we all know one of the 1414 01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:56,280 Speaker 2: most difficult places to play in all of college football. 1415 01:09:56,640 --> 01:10:00,040 Speaker 2: It's two programs that are familiar with one another, and 1416 01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:02,599 Speaker 2: I have confidence Jed Fish putting a game plan together 1417 01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:05,599 Speaker 2: for a big game like that, I'll give him some advantage. 1418 01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:07,680 Speaker 2: It's not saying he has all of them against Dan 1419 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 2: Lanning and his staff. But that's a treacherous run the 1420 01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 2: rest of the way through, specifically, Josh, because not a 1421 01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:15,840 Speaker 2: lot of people nationally, I think are gonna make a 1422 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 2: ton of noise about those games individually. So how many 1423 01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 2: guys are gonna be put on warning themselves by reading 1424 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:24,880 Speaker 2: what people are saying. People picking them to lose those games, 1425 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:26,680 Speaker 2: People saying that those are gonna be more difficult games 1426 01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 2: than maybe other folks imagine. They might not have to 1427 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:30,240 Speaker 2: hear a lot of that, deal with a lot of that. 1428 01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 2: So you take a little extra confidence and then you should. 1429 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:35,080 Speaker 2: But that's a tough road the rest of the way through. 1430 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 2: I think they manage it. I think they get through 1431 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:40,479 Speaker 2: it just because, like you said, they understand now mistakes 1432 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 2: that were made. Also think just the talent level can 1433 01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:44,920 Speaker 2: take over in a couple of those games, as we've 1434 01:10:44,960 --> 01:10:48,080 Speaker 2: stated with other games like South Carolina and Alabama, maybe 1435 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,559 Speaker 2: this Texas game against Vanderbilt, Oregon's gonna have takeover players 1436 01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:54,200 Speaker 2: that can go dominate. Certain facets of those games are 1437 01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:58,439 Speaker 2: gonna play. But Stylistically, they're gonna be very careful with 1438 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:01,559 Speaker 2: I think not getting to a shootout with USC not 1439 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:03,760 Speaker 2: letting I always slow that game down too much to 1440 01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,720 Speaker 2: where it limits their possessions. Where two punts in a 1441 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:09,559 Speaker 2: turnover all of a sudden put you on red alert 1442 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 2: late third quarter that you're gonna have to go get 1443 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 2: two scores to win that game. So I think styles 1444 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:17,000 Speaker 2: make fights, and stylistically, those are games that organ has 1445 01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:18,000 Speaker 2: to be really careful with. 1446 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 1: The rest of the way through, Yep, all right, I'm 1447 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,000 Speaker 1: three fourths of the way convinced. You only hop back 1448 01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:25,400 Speaker 1: on the feed the plug Cube show, but it's worthy 1449 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:26,200 Speaker 1: of being plugged. 1450 01:11:26,200 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 2: So I would encourage people. 1451 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 1: I see complaints all the time not enough quality college 1452 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:33,519 Speaker 1: football shows out there. We'll stop looking in the same 1453 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:35,960 Speaker 1: place as you always look and listen to the next 1454 01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:38,360 Speaker 1: forty five seconds, because that's what I'm giving you right now, 1455 01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:40,559 Speaker 1: forty five seconds, and then we both need to go 1456 01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:41,800 Speaker 1: to Plug Cube show. 1457 01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 2: Go well, we talk all the SEC games, we watch 1458 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:47,599 Speaker 2: the film, and we take you through what we saw. 1459 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 2: It's just that simple. I don't feel like you get 1460 01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,080 Speaker 2: that a lot of other places, and the details in 1461 01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:54,679 Speaker 2: which things take place like take, for example, Pull Protection 1462 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:57,839 Speaker 2: from Tennessee, which we were made aware by Joey Halseley 1463 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 2: was their entire offseason project and told us about all 1464 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:03,360 Speaker 2: the effort and everything that went into it.
