How did you feel about what 49 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: you just saw exhilarated. 50 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 3: Ty, my name is Dan. I'm a fan of neither 51 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 3: of these teams. I'm just a fan of the sport, 52 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 3: and I feel exhilarated. I Look, the thing that's incredible 53 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 3: is how quickly things can change in any direction. There 54 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 3: was I forget the exact order of operations, but it 55 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 3: was something like, you know, punt interception, punt from Georgia 56 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 3: to start the game and oh, you're down twenty eight 57 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: nothing now right, That's all it took from the Georgia offense. 58 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 3: It was an off night to start, especially for Georgia 59 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 3: on offense, but certainly their ability to tackle Jalen mill 60 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 3: Row and Ryan Williams on the edge to start out 61 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 3: this game left a lot to be desired. But I 62 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 3: thought we were heading for like fifty six to ten, 63 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 3: like the way it started and the way that Jalen 64 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 3: Molroe was able to navigate, and like what we believe 65 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: is a very good Georgia defense with ease that man, 66 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 3: this is something. This is just gonna be one of 67 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: those nights for Georgia. And then it kind of became 68 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 3: one of those nights for Georgia in a different kind 69 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 3: of way that they stuck with it that they weathered 70 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 3: the turnovers, they weathered the interceptions, that you know, even 71 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: though they weren't able to run the ball, that Carson 72 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 3: Beck was able to find Arian Smith, that he was 73 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: able to sort of navigate Dominic Lovett had some explosion plays, 74 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: and that he was thoughtful and patient and brought this 75 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 3: team back in the second half and really went with 76 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 3: the idea of you know, it's zero zero at halftime, 77 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 3: we'll see what happens. And then Zavian Brown changed and 78 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: Ryan Williams changed it all again for Alabama, which is 79 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 3: almost the hardest thing to do in the sport, right, 80 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 3: to have a team come back on you and somehow 81 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 3: reverse all of that sort of wave of excellence and 82 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 3: say we got a little bit left in the tank. 83 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 3: We got a little bit left, and Alabama did it. 84 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 3: It was an incredible performance with the eyes of a 85 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 3: nation on this game. 86 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 1: Incredible performance. So, just to level set, Alabama wins the 87 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: game by a forty one to thirty four score. For 88 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: a minute in time, it looked as if Georgia was 89 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: gonna win the game. Yeah Alabama. 90 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 6: Right. 91 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: Alabama very quickly strikes back late in the game with 92 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: a long pass from Jalen Milroe, who was exceptional throughout 93 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: this football game, to Ryan Williams, the seventeen year old freshman. 94 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: Trust me, if you didn't know he was seventeen A, 95 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 1: you wouldn't know to look at him. B If you 96 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: listen to any of the audio, they said it about 97 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: a million times, So you came away knowing it. If 98 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: you didn't come into the game knowing it, he was incredible. 99 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: One hundred and seventy seven yards, had that long touchdown 100 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: that put Bama ahead, gave them the eventual victory. 101 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 3: Had that tipped pass to himself against Malachi Starks downfield, 102 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,799 Speaker 3: like is just I can't imagine there was a better 103 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 3: year for like true freshman receivers than what we're seeing 104 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 3: now from Ryan Williams and Jeremiah Smith. And I'm positive 105 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 3: I'm leaving people out, but that duo to immediately come 106 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 3: in and we'll see what Ohio State does down the line. 107 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 3: They're going to be excellent. But holy hell, Ryan Williams, 108 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 3: I love the story. I think Chris Fowler told it 109 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 3: something along the lines of like they're in practice and 110 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 3: Jalen Moreau was throwing to different receivers and Ryan Williams 111 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 3: started out with the threes, and Jalen Moreau has said 112 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 3: something along the lines of like, yeah, he absolutely needs 113 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 3: to be with the ones immediately. This is not even 114 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 3: like a question like this is just the reality that 115 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 3: we're going to live under that Ryan Williams is going 116 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 3: to run with the ones on this team. And well, 117 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 3: he showed why. 118 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: He showed why, he showed why he might be the 119 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: best receiver on the team already, and he's again seventeen 120 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: years old. A couple things that came to mind as 121 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: I was watching this game again, this is our top twelve. 122 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: We're going to go through all the twelve things that 123 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: we think you to know coming out a week five. 124 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: We've got a spillover episode that we're going to air 125 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: on Tuesday morning that we can cover the things that 126 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: we don't get to tonight. But obviously point number one 127 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: is this rematch essentially between Alabama and Georgia. It was 128 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: a big deal a year ago because Bama knocked off 129 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: Georgia SEC title game they went to the playoffs. So 130 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: this was one of those matchups that we had circled 131 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: on the calendar in advance of the twenty four season, 132 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: just as a big time matchup earlier in the season 133 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: than perhaps you might expect. I think it hurts if 134 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: you're a Georgia fan to lose this game, but it 135 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: doesn't hurt that much, right if you were gonna lose 136 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: to Alabama, I think you wanted to lose in a 137 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: very very close manner. If you had lost fifty six 138 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: to nothing, as you said earlier, which is kind of 139 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: how it felt when this game started, that definitely would 140 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: have had a different vibe moving forward. It wouldn't have 141 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: meant that they don't get into the playoff or anything 142 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: like that, but it definitely would have hurt them much 143 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: more than I think a game like this ends up 144 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: hurting them, just because they can aim back. They grabbed 145 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: the lead and eventually the end up losing here because 146 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: again in that long touchdown passed from Milroe to Ryan Williams. 147 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: So it's it's going to be viewed by the committee 148 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: as basically an even contest, which is honestly, it's gonna 149 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: help both more than it hurts any of these two teams, 150 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: even though George's got the one lost. The other thing 151 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: that I came out of this really feeling, do you. 152 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 3: Jump in real quick? 153 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? Please? 154 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 3: I think your heart's in the right place. But this 155 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 3: is sort of like the night of the breakup, telling 156 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 3: your friend that like she was never for you. There's 157 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 3: plenty of fish in the sea. It hurts right now. 158 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: Don't tell people not to hurt. If you're a Georgia fan, 159 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 3: all right, that's fine. 160 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: Listen, under threw. 161 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 3: He underthrew Colby Young near the end of the game, 162 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 3: and look, Colby Young maybe could have made that play 163 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 3: Xavian Brown. I got got a little bit lucky that 164 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 3: that wasn't a PI there in that moment. Then he 165 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 3: got the pick on the next play. But like telling 166 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: Georgia people to like, this is the time to lose. 167 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not telling I'm not telling you to not hate. 168 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: I'm telling you you gotta feel the pain you got 169 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: to go through. You gotta do the whole thing. 170 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 6: I get it. 171 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: I've been there, yeah, But I'm just saying, bigger picture, 172 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: we zoom out. 173 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 3: Give it a couple of poor Georgia people, give it 174 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 3: a couple of weeks. 175 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: I don't think George is going to be viewed negatively 176 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: because of this performance. The other thing that I wanted 177 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: to add real quick way back in February, we did 178 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: a show where we sort of manufactured hot takes. I 179 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: built a muddle volcano as a result of that show 180 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: where we threw the hot takes into it, and at 181 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: the end of this year, we're going to go through 182 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: them all. Well, we'll talk through all the dumb things 183 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: that we said. One of the dumb takes that I 184 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: manufactured was that at the end of the season, Jalen 185 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: Milroe was not going to be the starting quarterback for Kailin. 186 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: I love that take, right and again it was it 187 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: was sort of half joking, but the logic was, the 188 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: logic is shut up. The logic was this, Yeah, the 189 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: logic was Kaylen to Board doesn't usually have a quarterback 190 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: like this. The system he runs is more of an 191 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: air raid commination pro style air raid, but it's more 192 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: of an air raid requires intermediate passing to be very accurate. 193 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: That type of thing. That's not really Jalen Moro's game. 194 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: Jalen Milroe's game is he can run. He has the 195 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: defenses on skates, and he obviously wants to stretch a 196 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: field vertically, which we saw him do a number of 197 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: times in this football game. What is a parent in 198 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: this game is that I was very wrong A and B. 199 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: They have adjusted the system to his skill set, which 200 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: is always the best kind of coach to know. We 201 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: have to figure out the best way to assemble the 202 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: pieces around him to support him and make him better. 203 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: Not only is he going to be the starting quarterback 204 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: the full way through, he may end up being a 205 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: first round draft pick. And on top of it all, 206 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: just at a minimum, he looks way better than he 207 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: did a year ago when we were still feeling our 208 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: way through this thing and just learning the ropes on 209 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: Jalen Morrow. In this game, he had command, He looked 210 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: incredibly started the game something like eleven for eleven. It 211 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: might have been more. I lost track. I kind of 212 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: blacked out. He looked outstanding in this football game. If 213 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: he looks this good the full way through, I don't 214 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: know who's beating with him kind of at that level 215 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: of performance. 216 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 3: Oh, clearly Auburn. It will be one of those years, 217 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 3: right If I may do issue a maya couple myself 218 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 3: in previewing this game, why I didn't you know, fall 219 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 3: head over heels with Alabama? Was My point was that, like, yeah, 220 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 3: Jalen Morose, crazy athletic and he's a big play guy. 221 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 3: And Ryan Williams has shown that he can. He's a 222 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: big play dude down the field, and he's young, but 223 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 3: he looks explosive. But like, what else do you have 224 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 3: against this Georgia defense? What you need more than just that? 225 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 3: Maybe not tonight, right, maybe not tonight. Obviously, other Alabama 226 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 3: players made plays, but the bulk of that offense came 227 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 3: from complimentary football that the Alabama defense, which by the way, 228 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 3: playing a lot of younger guys, a lot of transfers, 229 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 3: like in the back end, looked very strong for a 230 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 3: lot of this game. Now, it's hard to hold up 231 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 3: against an excellent team like Georgia, but I thought they were. 232 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 3: They just look really good. They confuse a very good quarterback, 233 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 3: They got in lanes, they made tackles like this was 234 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 3: a thorough performance, even if it wasn't at their apex 235 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 3: all the time that they closed the game and they 236 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 3: started the game and things happened in between. But I 237 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 3: came away really impressed with the ceiling of Alabama's defense. 238 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: I was impressed with both sides of this, to be honest. 239 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: The way that Georgia came back and actually grabbed the 240 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: lead late I was I bet Georgia minus the two, 241 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: and I was doing the math in my head. Okay, 242 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: if they score here, they get the two point conversion. 243 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: This could be a miracle. Front door cover here wasn't 244 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: meant to be. Apologies to you, over Ballerhood for maybe 245 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: giving you a bit of a bum steer there, but 246 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: a last Your final score is forty one thirty four. 247 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: Alabama wins at home. A very very big deal, an 248 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: incredible football game, obviously the headliner in Week five. It 249 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: was going in, it is coming out, and we're gonna 250 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: be talking about this one for a good long time. 251 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,079 Speaker 1: So and Grass Tobama and Grass to Kalin de boor 252 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: and to our. 253 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 3: Point a little bit before. I don't know if it's 254 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 3: on the Tuesday show or on our bonus Thursday showing 255 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 3: Forballers dot Com. It is kind of nice to know 256 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 3: that these two teams are not bulletproof. That as good 257 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 3: as Alabama looked early, they showed vulnerabilities and closing this 258 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 3: game out as good as Georgia seemed to be heading 259 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 3: into the season, obviously, we saw that vulnerability against Kentucky, 260 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: who I obviously backed it up. And I'm sure we're 261 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 3: gonna get into it soon, but that Georgia has that 262 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 3: vulnerability to come out crazy flat in a huge game, 263 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 3: not something we've seen all the time in these huge 264 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 3: games from Georgia. So I like the human nature of 265 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 3: these two programs right now. As good as they are. 266 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: Georgia was shell shocked. Yeah, at the start of that game, 267 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: they were shell shocked. Everything was incredibly easy for Alabama, 268 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: and I give Kirby Smart and Carson Beck and just 269 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: the Georgia defense as a whole lot of credit for 270 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: figuring out a path through, figuring out a way to 271 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: kind of pick themselves back up, especially after halftime, and 272 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: make this a game at all. There are many teams 273 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: out there that would have lost by fifty points, but 274 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: they didn't. They stuck to it. They ended up scoring 275 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: very quickly later in the game when they had to, 276 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: and look, they were just a couple passes away from 277 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: at least sending this one overtime. So I congratulate both teams. 278 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: If you're a Georgia fan, apologies, I'm sure you've had 279 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: many wins, so maybe recually some of your pain, thinking 280 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: back to fonder days forty one thirty four is your 281 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: final You mentioned Kentucky. Let's get the point. Number two. 282 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: Let's on this college football Week number five, Kentucky upsets 283 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: Old Miss twenty to seventeen on the road in Oxford, 284 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Dan Rubinstein, So, first off. 285 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 3: One host on this show, is that where you're going 286 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 3: with this? 287 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: Why don't you take it? Because ye just like I 288 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: took the points, you're the one who picked Kentucky to 289 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: cover here. 290 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, I didn't. I didn't pick this out right, 291 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: Brad White. In the Kentucky defense, it was not a 292 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: fluke and he got a lot of a lot of 293 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 3: flak after last season with the pretty significant dip that 294 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 3: this defense took. But with even the South Carolina game nowithstanding, 295 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 3: what they did against Georgia, what they did against Ole 296 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 3: Miss in not just their own offense possessing the ball, 297 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 3: sustaining drives, but getting the ole Miss offense the hell 298 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 3: off the field, getting off the field on third downs 299 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 3: and confusing Jackson Dart, turning Jackson Dart sort of one 300 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 3: note into like heaving it downfield and hoping for the best. 301 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 3: And he did connect with Trey Harris a good amount, 302 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 3: but they really deterred Ole Miss, it seemed from going 303 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 3: to the run at all, and maybe that was a 304 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 3: play calling miscue from ole Miss as well, and in 305 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 3: sort of concert that ole Miss was not a balanced 306 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 3: offense like we've seen thus far this season. Kentucky and 307 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 3: Brock Vandergriff on that huge fourth down throw like it 308 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 3: almost seemed like they learned some lessons from the Georgia 309 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 3: game to take more chances in these big moments like 310 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 3: you only live once. And Kentucky was like, you know what, 311 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 3: screw it. We lost without scoring touchdowns in our first 312 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 3: two SEC games, Like what more do we have to 313 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 3: lose at this point? 314 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: Yolo, Baby, Yolo. 315 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 3: And as sort of uneven as Brock vandergriff has been 316 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 3: this year as Kentucky's quarterback, making the huge throws that 317 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 3: he did, getting the lucky bounce when Gavin Wimsat you know, 318 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: was running it into the end zone and the ball 319 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 3: popped out and recovered like Dame Key looks kind of 320 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 3: incredible right now. 321 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: A drop issue last year and is I. 322 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 3: Don't know, he has completely redeemed himself. Looks like an 323 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: All SEC caliber receiver. 324 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: Really good. He looks really good. 325 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 3: Yeah that you know, It's one of those things where 326 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 3: like what do we say this here, like, let's extend 327 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 3: some grace. You're not who you are in week two. 328 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 3: Maybe you're going to be close to which you are 329 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 3: in week five, six, seven, whatever, And if your starting 330 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 3: point is this Kentucky defense again with the lumps they 331 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 3: took against South Carolina. Of course, as part of the story, Man, Kentucky, 332 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 3: what a like to what they did in Oxford was 333 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 3: one of the most incredible accomplishments of the year thus far, 334 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 3: considering where they've come from. So great for Kentucky that 335 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 3: defense is locked down, the defense they were harassing Jackson Dark. 336 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: This was their biggest road win since nineteen seventy seven 337 00:15:58,640 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: when they went on the road and beat number on 338 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: for Penn State and Indiallions. 339 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, high school graduation here for you. 340 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: Of course, this is very much on brand for Kentucky 341 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: to ugly a game up. And I guess it shouldn't 342 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: be a surprise to see them do it against Old 343 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: miss since they just did it a few weeks ago 344 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: against Georgia. But still I feel like, in the moments 345 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: thereafter thirteen to twelve they lost that game to Georgia, 346 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: the inkling was to just sort of pan that game, 347 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: to write it off and say, well, we know Kentucky 348 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: usually is a good defense, but Georgia played a bad game, right. 349 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: I think we could now definitively say that the reason 350 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: they had a bad game was because of the Kentucky defense, 351 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: because all miss in the first four weeks of the season, 352 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: that offense looked like the friggin' death Star. If Kentucky 353 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: can do this to them on the road, it's fair 354 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: to ask the question. It's fair to wonder can they 355 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: also do it against Tennessee? Can they also do it 356 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: against Texas? They've got some heavy hitter that are still 357 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: on This schedule is not an easy road the rest 358 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: of the way. We probably need to upgrade how we 359 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: view this team within the context of the SEC, within 360 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: the context of the twenty twenty four season. That is 361 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: not to say they're winning the conference, but at a minimum, 362 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: the fact that they could do this now to two 363 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: teams with certifiably good offenses is meaningful. So good on them. 364 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: A hell of a win. As I said, their best 365 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: road win since nineteen seventy seven twenty to seventeen was 366 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: the final score. The other thing I would add in 367 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: the old Miss side sort of peak frustration. Oh yeah, 368 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: for ole Miss like in a vacuum, absolutely a winnable game. 369 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,360 Speaker 1: They had chance, They had plenty of chances in this game. 370 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 3: It was there for this to field goal late. Yep, 371 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 3: bigger picture. 372 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 1: This is exactly the kind of game that makes you 373 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 1: wonder if this program has actually hit a ceiling, because, 374 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: as you know, this has been one of those popular 375 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 1: narratives around Old Miss. It's one of those things that 376 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: comes up every time and people start talking up would 377 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: Lane Kiff and leave Old Miss to go to Florida? 378 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: To go to somewhere else? And they say often they 379 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: write other people not necessarily us often say well, it's 380 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: it's a program that's that's capped out and you could 381 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: only go so far at ole Miss. It would be 382 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 1: better to go elsewhere where they have better resources and 383 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 1: a better system around it. And if he actually wants 384 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: to win something, he needs to go out, he needs 385 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 1: to go outside of Oxford to order to do it. 386 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: And I understand if you're an old misfan hearing that 387 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: would make you defensive. These are the types of demoralizing, 388 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: these spiriting games that make you wonder, oh is that 389 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: actually true? 390 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 3: Right? 391 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: It's losses like this in a year like this where 392 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: it felt like so much was going Old Missus way, 393 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: via the portal, via the schedule, which set up pretty well, 394 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 1: still sets up pretty well for them. The season is 395 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: still in front of them. Okay, this is not to 396 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: say it's over. We know there's a new playoff system 397 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: in effect now. They could easily still be one of 398 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: the top twelve teams. But this is one of the 399 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,959 Speaker 1: those games that I think, unfortunately, if you're an Ole 400 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: Miss fan, makes you question the very integrity and the 401 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: beams that are holding this program up. 402 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and even looking at the results of this game 403 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 3: and the results of close Ole Miss Kentucky matchups these 404 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 3: past few years, the narrative fair or not around Ole 405 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 3: missus offseason is they were bringing in Juice Wells. They 406 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 3: were bringing in Walter Nolan, not for Kentucky, for Georgia, 407 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 3: for Alabama. Right that they've reached this ten and two ceiling, 408 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 3: who are the playmakers we need to add to get 409 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 3: above where we've been and playing Kentucky at home. All 410 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 3: due respect to Kentucky, this has not been an impressive 411 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 3: Kentucky offense. This has not been Look Kentucky's defense was 412 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 3: the winner of this game was twenty to seventeen was 413 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 3: the final you ole miss to seventeen points. That's the 414 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 3: star of the game. But by the way, subplot here 415 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 3: Leonora Sellers. Maybe it's just that guy because he's the 416 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 3: only one who can do this against Kentucky's defense. Yeah, 417 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 3: this a lot of money on that portal and rightfully so, 418 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 3: right if your goals are winning a national championship. Oh yes, 419 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 3: spenas Ben. 420 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: The other subplot that I noticed and I mentioned to you, 421 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: does Jackson Dart have a little bit of a frosted 422 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: mullet thing going on? 423 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: It does seem like there is something, there's a Tony 424 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 3: the Tiger frostedness to the Jackson Dart experience. But I 425 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 3: mean he's always, you know, taking pride in his unique 426 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 3: appearance with the makeup and everything. 427 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: Jackson Dart, I think, Luke Altmeyer, we're working on a 428 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: nice little pantheon of quarterback hair this year, definitely, which 429 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: we'll continue to discuss. Picture you follow or subscribe. A 430 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: big win for Kentucky, right kudos. Twenty to seventeen They 431 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 1: get the double on the road. Point number three the 432 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: freaking Miami game. 433 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 3: Ah, what happened in Friday Night? 434 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: Man Friday Night lights. We have been blessed with some 435 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 1: really good Friday night games last couple of weeks. We 436 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: had two good ones this past week. Obviously the Miami game, 437 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 1: and we're going to talk about now. Rutgers ended up winning. 438 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: That one came down to potential game tying field goal 439 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: that didn't go through. But the obvious headliner was this 440 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 1: Miami game. So here, here is the deal. Here's what transpired. 441 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: Miami scores a touchdown with about two minutes left to 442 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: take the lead. Virginia Tech goes into its two minute offense, 443 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: which frankly showed very little urgency. And I'll talk about 444 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: it in a little bit tough. Yeah, one of those deals, 445 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: truly where you're yelling at the TV Okay. Game comes 446 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: down to a hail Mary. They burnt through a bunch 447 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: of time that they didn't have to burn through because 448 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: they didn't know how to manage it. Throw the hail mary. 449 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: I thought it was a complete pass to Da Kwan Felton. Okay, 450 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: what did you think watching this? I couldn't see anything, ty, 451 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: I couldn't. My initial thought was that's a complete pass. 452 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: And they showed the video replay review it did go 453 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: to review, and what the acc said after reversing the 454 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: call was quote during the view process of the last 455 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: play of the Virginia Tech at Miami game, it was 456 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: determined that the loose ball was touched by a Miami 457 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: player while he was out of bounds, which makes it 458 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: an incomplete pass and immediately ends the play. It was 459 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: extremely difficult, even when they zoomed way the hell in 460 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 1: to figure out did somebody catch the ball, was anybody 461 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: out of bounds? Was the ball controlled for any period 462 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: of time that would constitute possession and therefore a game 463 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: winning touchdown. I was surprised first off that they would 464 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: rule it a touchdown on the field and not just 465 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: and not just sort of be like, we need to 466 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: go and look at this because we have no idea 467 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: what happened. And then b the fact that they did 468 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: rule it a touchdown on the field means that they 469 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: need conclusive evidence via the replay in order to overturn it. 470 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: The fact that anybody saw anything conclusive in that replay, 471 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: to me was mind boggling, because it was we saw 472 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: it about as close as the referees did, and probably 473 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: on higher resolution screens than the referees did. In the moment, 474 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: and I could not make heads of tails of it. 475 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: I really couldn't. Long story short, Miami survives at home. 476 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: The final score was thirty eight to thirty four. They 477 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: escape with a win. It's a tough loss for Virginia Tech. 478 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 1: But this was one of the dramatic moments that everybody's 479 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: been talking about. 480 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 3: Among a lot of house Yeah. 481 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: So, and certainly one of those deals that we're going 482 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: to talk about for weeks to come here, all dating 483 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: back to week five in that Friday night game. 484 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I couldn't make heads or tails of it. 485 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 3: When I when the play happened live, I was like, 486 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 3: I something happened. There's a mess of arms and legs 487 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,239 Speaker 3: and jerseys and I have no idea what happened. And 488 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 3: it seemed like the ref in the end zone was 489 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 3: confused for a long time. Then a Miami player ran 490 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 3: out of the morass of people with the ball with 491 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 3: the ball l D lights in the stadium aren't flashing, 492 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 3: and Miami people start running onto the field, and then 493 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 3: there's an announcement that no, the game's not over, and 494 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 3: the ref says it was ruled a touchdown on the field. 495 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 3: I think that's the order, if I remember correctly, that's exactly. 496 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 3: And then you watch the whatever three or four replay angles, 497 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 3: and you kind of see somebody come down with the ball. 498 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 3: You kind of see the ball wobble. You can't really 499 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 3: tell when the ball's wobbling or if the guy is 500 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 3: on top of another guy who's out of bounds when 501 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 3: he actually controls the ball, and if his feed were 502 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 3: ever down first, you can't see anything. And so somehow 503 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 3: the ref makes that call that it's a touchdown to 504 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 3: his eyes in person in the moment, and then they 505 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 3: look at the replay and decide no. And they're showing 506 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 3: the replay center in North Carolina wherever it is in Charlotte, 507 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 3: and they're watching the same clips we are. They're not 508 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 3: watching special angles. You can see it. And they's like 509 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 3: show the replay camera angles and everybody's watching the same stuff. 510 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 3: You meet, the replay officials, whoever, people in anchorage, everybody's 511 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 3: you know, got the same stuff. And they overturn it, 512 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 3: which just never should have been called a touchdown the field, 513 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 3: Like I feel like they got to the right results 514 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 3: the wrong way, if that makes any sense. And so 515 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 3: I don't know why you have this process in place. 516 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 3: I don't agree with how everything transpired, but I don't 517 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 3: know how you can call that a touchdown. So it 518 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: was a wild game even without that, right the blown 519 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 3: up fake field goal that Virginia Tech attempted. You mentioned 520 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 3: the clock management near the end of the game, that 521 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: they weren't playing with more urgency. 522 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 1: Dan, I would I would probably be fit to be 523 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: tied if I were a Tech fan. 524 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 3: Same thing I have with Michigan by the way, against Minnesota. 525 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, at the end of the game, sure, if I 526 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 1: were a Tech fan. Again, much like the game we 527 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: just discussed with the old miss loss, Yeah, this was 528 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: another one. If you're a Tech fan, it was there. 529 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: Oh my god, they ran all over it was therefore 530 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: they ran all over Miami. 531 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 3: But in the end of the turnovers. 532 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, the two minute offense is really bad. It has 533 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: no urgency, and at times as they're trying to drive 534 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: the field to win the game, it kind of felt 535 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: like they didn't have a clue what was going on. 536 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 1: So I don't know if that's a practice thing. I 537 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 1: don't know if that's a personnel thing or a coaching thing, 538 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: but something there is broken, and that would drive me crazy. Secondly, 539 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: the coaching decisions weren't great, notably that fake field goal 540 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: that you mentioned. 541 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 3: And the kicker was nails and the kicker kicks. I mean, 542 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 3: all they would have needed was a field goal, right. 543 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: If he kicked the seven yard or earlier in the game, right, 544 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: which again, that could be its own podcast as how 545 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: these guys are making field goals like this all of 546 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: a sudden but totally that notwithstanding, Yeah, the fact that 547 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: they made that call, when they made that call to 548 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: go fake field goal, felt like it was more emotional 549 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 1: than logical, which is not what you want. And then 550 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: it was like, I think, bigger picture, just this realization 551 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 1: that this is a team that ran the ball super 552 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: well in this game, that got itself in a position 553 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: to win this game, that could have been up more 554 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: in this game and just sort of ice the lead. 555 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: And yet here we are again where Virginia Tech finds 556 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: itself in another close game that they're going to lose. Yeah, 557 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 1: this team should be better than this, and right now 558 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: it's two and three, probably a fringe bowl team if 559 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: you look at their schedule. Everybody was high on Virginia 560 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: Tech coming into this year. I think on the back 561 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: of the schedule. If nothing more, the talent at the 562 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: end of last season seemed like it was progressing and 563 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 1: moving forward. 564 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 3: But back a ton. 565 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, they brought back a ton. Returning production was all. 566 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: There was a lot to build on and feel good 567 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: about the fact that we're here now with Virginia Tech 568 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 1: is is one of those things. It's not quite a 569 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: full Florida state at this point, not even close to it, No, 570 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: but it's at least in the same vein of being 571 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: I think a very very shocking outcome through the first 572 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:47,919 Speaker 1: month of the season. 573 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, and by the way, to give Miami some flowers 574 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 3: for being able to pull this out with the picks 575 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 3: that cam Ward through that were brought back considerable amount 576 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 3: and the early turnover he had he fumbled it early on. Yeah, 577 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 3: improving with that little shovel to. I think it was 578 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 3: Riley Williams. Two or three tight ends. Elijah Arroyo was 579 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 3: great in this game where Streppo caught a ball on 580 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 3: his ass on a key fourth down, like Miami made 581 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 3: plays when it needed to make plays. I think the 582 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 3: right tackle like swept somebody Via had. I don't know 583 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 3: if that was the unsportsman like conduct, but he got 584 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,399 Speaker 3: beat on a play and threw his legs up to 585 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: try and block somebody. It was I mean, it was 586 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 3: effort for Miami to win this game. 587 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: There is a duality to both cam Ward and the 588 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 1: Miami Hurricanes this year. Yeah, because the highs of cam 589 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: Ward or Heisman caliber. Yeah, he had what four hundred 590 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: total yards five total touchdowns in this game. The lows 591 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: are the two Pixie threw, which honestly looked like the 592 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: kind of picks I've been throwing in college football twenty five. 593 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, playing with cam Ward setting an edge, the Miami 594 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 3: defense setting an edge against the run pretty low. Wasn't 595 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 3: great against Virginia Day at all. 596 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: No, So it's and then on the Miami side, if 597 00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: you zoom out a little bit, their duality is that 598 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: they're obvious talented enough to come back and win a 599 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: game like this down two scores, but still flawed enough 600 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: to be in a situation like this to begin with. Yeah, 601 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: and that is what they are fighting against. That is 602 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: sort of I think the overarching narrative about Miami when 603 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: we talk about it, are they getting the swagger back 604 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: and they get back to the mountaintop and be what 605 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: they once were, And all you got to make sure 606 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: you win these games. Now, they did win this game. 607 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: Winnings better than losing tie. It did win the game. Yeah, 608 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 1: but after again being incredible the first couple weeks of 609 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: the season, playing a game like this at home. Maybe 610 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: not against a bad team by any stretch, but showing 611 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: this level of vulnerability does make you question what they're 612 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: going to do moving forward. 613 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, who would have thought winning big games under 614 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 3: Mario Cristobal would be very taxing emotionally and stressful and 615 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 3: not something you want to go through again. 616 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: Continue point number four. Penn State twenty one, Illinois seven. 617 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 3: It's a nice win. 618 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: How much this game, if any? 619 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 3: Did you watch a good amount on and off right 620 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 3: that was the Georgia Alabama game happening. There was a 621 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 3: bunch of stuff happening. I kept going back to Cincinnati 622 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: Texas attack on that shootout. There's a lot of fun 623 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 3: stuff happening tonight. 624 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: This was an incredibly lopsided game in favor of Penn State. Yeah, 625 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: it was a game controlled by Penn State's defense, by 626 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: Penn State's rushing attack. They had two miss kicks from 627 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: Sanders Sahitik, who is local to my area and so 628 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: I've been rooting for him to do well, but he 629 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: had a kicking issue last season and got yanked, and 630 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: my hunch is that it's about to be one of 631 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: those deals where he's gone for good. Yeah, probably toast 632 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: after missing two more field goals and almost missing an 633 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: extra point a little bit later on in this football 634 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: game as well. So I felt like Penn State had 635 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: a pretty good handle on this one, but Illinois again 636 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: remained on brand. Illinois, much like Kentucky right, likes to 637 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 1: ugly up a game, likes to slow a game down, 638 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: likes to make you uncomfortable and put you in weird 639 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: situations and keep it close enough that maybe they're within 640 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: striking distance. And for a good chunk of this game, 641 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: that's exactly what they were. Yeah, very much in striking 642 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: distance in terms of this. 643 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 3: I've been on dates like that. By the way, tie 644 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 3: just make somebody uncomfortable, slow it down, and control the tempa. Settle, settle, 645 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 3: settle continue. That was the style of this football game. 646 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: So I actually want to give Illinois a lot of 647 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: credit for going into Beaver Stadium. The quote unquote unofficial 648 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: wide out in play a loud, raucous environment, not. 649 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 3: A great numbers on the helmets, tie numbers. 650 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: On the helmets. I love that look for Pennsandanes. Look 651 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: love that look for Penn State. There was a lot 652 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: of momentum on the Penn State side, So for Illinois 653 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: to go in there and I think perform pretty well, 654 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: that speaks volumes about where this team is at Penn State. 655 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: Their ability to run the football is something that we 656 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: had called out in the build up to this season, 657 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: because we know in Andy kotal Nikki's time at Kansas 658 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: they built a premiere ground attack almost immediately upon him 659 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: getting there, and last season Penn State in particular, did 660 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: not perform on the ground the way that we had hoped. 661 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: We saw what they did in twenty two, but twenty 662 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: three was almost a step back. They had k Tron 663 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: Allen obviously Nick Singleton, two top flight running backs that 664 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: they just didn't do enough with. It seemed. If this 665 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: game's any indication, it seems as if they're going to 666 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: lean heavily on those two guys to move the needle 667 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: on offense, hopefully to open up the passing game. I 668 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: like that strategy if it's something they continue to do. 669 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: I also like the fact they're getting creative. They're using 670 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: Ty Warren. They're tight end as like a wildcat quarterback, 671 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: putting him into positions where he almost doesn't have a position. 672 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,479 Speaker 1: They're just utilizing his skill set. They're finding creative ways 673 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: to move this offense, and I think it's getting better. 674 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: Curious to see what it looks like now moving forward. 675 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: But a nice win for Penn State at home against 676 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: a ranked opponent in Illinois doesn't always got to be pretty. 677 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: No wins wins winning, You'll take it. 678 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 3: You always take it. Now, Penn State has survived Brett 679 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 3: Bielama and Heisman, Harry Right, Harold fannin nobody certain nobody, 680 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 3: nobody feels good after playing him. Texa aam doesn't feel good? 681 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: Oh do you? 682 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 3: Most certainly does not feel good. I don't. I think 683 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 3: Harold Fannon put up another like Buck eighty tonight. But yeah, 684 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 3: Penn State chugs on undefeated. Good for them. 685 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: Point five is a Notre Dame game, thirty one to 686 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: twenty four Notre Name beasts Louisville. 687 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 3: By the way, point four and a half is Dylan 688 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 3: Gabriel just threw one of the ugliest pick sixes of 689 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 3: anybody that anybody will ever throw. Organ was about to 690 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:35,959 Speaker 3: score a touchdown of up thirty five to three at 691 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 3: the half against Ucla, and he got fleshed out of 692 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 3: the pocket and threw it directly like to a UCLA 693 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 3: player five yards from him, with no Oregon player nearby. 694 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 3: He pulled a Peyton Thornton. It was truly Oh the 695 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 3: guy slip. The Oregon guy slipped. Still horrific. Continue point 696 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 3: number five. 697 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,959 Speaker 1: Notre Dame beat Louisville thirty one to twenty four. This 698 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: game was weird, man, this is a weird game. It 699 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: was a rainy day in South Bend. There were three 700 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: fumbles within the first eight minutes. I was counting them 701 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,800 Speaker 1: out on Twitter at eventually I stopped at five. I 702 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: don't think there were anymore, but a lot of mistakes, 703 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: a couple turnovers apiece for both Louisville and Notre Dame. 704 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: Notre Dame was able to I think, get more out 705 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: of Riley Leonard. 706 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 3: I think need to hit them downfield early. 707 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 1: He hits them downfield early. I think I need to 708 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: readjust what my expectations are for him, because if your 709 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: hope is that Riley Leonard is going to step into 710 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: this thing as it was for me, he's going to 711 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: step in and suddenly he's going to be thrown for 712 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: two to fifty a game. That's just not what they're 713 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: going to do with them. It's clear they're not going 714 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,439 Speaker 1: to do that. They're going to use his legs. They're 715 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 1: going to use their own rushing attack more in hopes 716 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: of then opening some stuff up down the field, play 717 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 1: action and RPO stuff, getting guys to the edge, getting 718 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: guys in space, stuff like that. They were able to 719 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: open up some of those roots up the middle, down 720 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: the seam, longer throws for Riley Leonard that we have 721 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: seen this season. It's good to see him doing more 722 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,760 Speaker 1: of that. I'm still not convinced that they have fixed 723 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,400 Speaker 1: quote unquote fixed Riley Leonard. I think they're still relying 724 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: a little bit too much on the quarterback run. I 725 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:21,919 Speaker 1: don't know what games on the schedule remain for Notre Dame, 726 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: maybe outside USC that can put that truly to the 727 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 1: test and put Notre Dame in uncomfortable situations where they 728 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: have to veer from that game plan that works their advantage. 729 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: This was really the biggest remaining obstacle on the schedule, 730 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: barring another Northern Illinois situation. Of course, so this may 731 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: not be something that we truly see be exploited by 732 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: an opponent until Notre Dame gets to a bowl or 733 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: some version of the postseason, whether it's playoff or otherwise. 734 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, it's never good. When this was an NBA 735 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 3: Peacock game, right, there was a don't start with the 736 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 3: Peacock name. No, no, I'm just saying, this is not the broadcast. 737 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 3: This is more like that. The broadcast put up a 738 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 3: graphic about like notable Riley Leonard accomplishments in his Notre 739 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 3: Dame career and it was like only the third quarterback 740 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 3: to have six rushing touchdowns in September, and you're like, well, 741 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 3: he's a quarterback and we're talking about not throwing early on. 742 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 3: So no good for him, because right after that, I 743 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 3: think he was successful. It was it Jayden great House, 744 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 3: who he connected with down Dale. 745 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: Had a nice and a nice strow Jaden great House. 746 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: I mean, look, you can do a lot worse than 747 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 1: hitting a wide open receiver for a long touchdown. And 748 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 1: so there were plenty of instances in this game where 749 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: there were guys or wide open that is set up 750 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: by the quarterback. Run that is set up by what 751 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 1: they were doing on the ground. Some of the side 752 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 1: to side stuff, you pull them apart side to side, 753 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 1: then you stretch the field when you've got seams to 754 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: work with. And so they've done that now for two 755 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 1: consecutive weeks, and it was good to see him do 756 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,439 Speaker 1: it against Louisville. I actually thought Tyler Shuck looked pretty 757 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: good for the most part. He had a couple of 758 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: picks in this game, but by and large, the fact 759 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 1: that he's out there, that he's healthy. He made some 760 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: incredible throws and I'm curious. 761 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 3: It's a great throw to ja Cory Brooks late right 762 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 3: to bring it with a really good score. 763 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: I thought, all things considered, Tyler Shuck look pretty good. 764 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 1: He was, you know, under attack for a good chunk 765 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 1: of this game as well. But I'm curious to see 766 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,760 Speaker 1: how that's going to play moving forward down the ACC 767 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: because the ACC is all over the place, right. Louisville 768 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 1: very much has a part to play in that ACC 769 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: conversation the deeper we get into this thing. I still 770 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 1: think they're a pretty good team. They moved the ball 771 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: fairly well against Notre Dame. They're very explosive on the 772 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 1: ground for sure, They're very explosive on the ground. I 773 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,759 Speaker 1: think they have improved in the passing game. I think 774 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 1: they have improved certainly out wide with their receivers. They 775 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 1: have I think impressed me in just this limited window 776 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: that I had a chance to watch them firsthand against 777 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 1: what we know is a good defense, a defense that 778 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: again performed pretty well. But all things considered, I was 779 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: I was impressed with the way that Louisville acquitted itself. 780 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 6: Here. 781 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 3: Tried to tell you, ty, Notre Dame opponents not play down, 782 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 3: to play up to the moment. 783 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: I think I said it first. I don't disagree with you. 784 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I took I took Notre Dame. 785 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,360 Speaker 1: Here, you took Notre Dame. I was on Louisville. I 786 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: don't know what the final spread. 787 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 3: And oh no, you had Louisville outright. I think I 788 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 3: took points, but I knew Notre Dame was gonna win. 789 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, point number six, Yes, please, I am titling this one. 790 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:19,720 Speaker 1: Who's the boss? 791 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 3: M Angela? 792 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:23,839 Speaker 1: Who's the boss? 793 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 5: From? 794 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,400 Speaker 3: Who's the boss? Yeah? 795 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: Who is the big twelve boss? 796 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,239 Speaker 3: Dan Rubs A good question, Travis Hunter. 797 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. 798 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 3: So who is the top tier? Who is atop the 799 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 3: top tier. I think the last time I checked, Utah 800 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:39,959 Speaker 3: was losing the Arizona. I don't know what the score 801 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 3: is right now. It's no cam rising tonight. 802 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: We'll get to it. We'll get don't don't don't. 803 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 3: I know, I don't, but I'm just saying, Utah has 804 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 3: to be in that conversation, pending what happens as we 805 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 3: record this show. Of course, who's the boss? Right now? 806 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 3: Colorado with a nice road wind that I did not 807 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 3: see coming in this specific manner. I knew that they 808 00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 3: were gonna be able to move the ball against ted 809 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 3: Roof because who among us? 810 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 1: We'll get to Colorado too. 811 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 3: I know I'm just talking out loud. I'm working through 812 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 3: it out loud. 813 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: Ah, Yes, this is part of why I'm asking it now. 814 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,240 Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm crazy about BYU, but winning 815 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 3: is better than losing. And in consecutive weeks they've beaten 816 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 3: a good defense in Baylor, what we think is a 817 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 3: good defense and a quality team in Kansas State. What 818 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 3: Kansas State did to Oklahoma State and what Colorado did 819 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 3: to UCF. You know, I Aoways State had a slow 820 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,840 Speaker 3: start and the defense was great obviously against Houston, but 821 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 3: the offense didn't show consistent pop as far as I 822 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 3: could tell. I haven't watched that game in detail yet, 823 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 3: so forgive me if I'm wrong about that. Right now, 824 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 3: I think those are the two teams depending on Utah's 825 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 3: performance as at time of recording that I like a 826 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 3: lot right now. 827 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 1: BYU won that game thirty four to twenty eight. Yeah, 828 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 1: despite a late push from Baylor. Yeah, they had jumped 829 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: out to a twenty one to dozing lead. They looked 830 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: unstoppable in the first half. Yeah, I watch every second 831 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,919 Speaker 1: of that game. Un freaking stoppable in the first half. 832 00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: Everything they did worked. 833 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 3: Your boy, Jake Brett's laugh, He's do everything. 834 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:06,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, he looked like Tom Brady, incredible, just finding open guys. 835 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,919 Speaker 1: They had no answer for anything that Bya you did. 836 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: This is still not the world's most efficient offense. I 837 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 1: don't think it's ever going to get there. But it 838 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: feels like they have a really good sense for who 839 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,760 Speaker 1: they are and Kalani Sataki is certainly getting the most 840 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 1: out of his guys. It also feels like they're getting better, 841 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: which is an important point to add to this whole thing, 842 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: because they're now five and zero. Our Fellowship of the 843 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: Verbal Group, which was very helpful this week. Thank it 844 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: everybody that helped us organize all this stuff. Yes, they 845 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 1: noted there's a chance that we could see a battle 846 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: of unbeatens in the Holy War in November, pending whatever 847 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: Utah does moving forward. Cam Rising will talk about that too. 848 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: But BYU now is just starting to get into the 849 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: meat of its schedule, and they do look good. I 850 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: do think they're getting better. It's definitely possible that they 851 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: could find a way through and get to that game 852 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: in November with having a loss, but they need to 853 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: prove that they cannot only get up on teams but 854 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: hold leads. They almost act this one away. 855 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 3: Got to run the ball with more than our guy, Jake. 856 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: I almost the act this one away. And this has 857 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: let me if I could take a positive spin on 858 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: Baylor for a second, because I think a lot of 859 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: Baylor fans are down pretty bad. And if you go 860 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,720 Speaker 1: to like coaches hotseat dot com and websites that track 861 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 1: where are coaches at, Dave Randa's pretty hot on that list. 862 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: It's not been great for Randa the last year and 863 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: a half now, but this defense only allowed three points 864 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: after halftime. They worked their way back into a position 865 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,919 Speaker 1: where they actually had a shot to win, despite having 866 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 1: no running game and putting in a backup quarterback who 867 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: I think at this point should probably be the starter. 868 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 1: Sorry Robertson, He's he's got game. 869 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,280 Speaker 3: He's good. I mean, he's got picks. He's got everybody, 870 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 3: but he picks to that. He's got a very sloppy Saturday. Yeah, 871 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:02,399 Speaker 3: he's got game. 872 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: They built the plane out of him, and it seems 873 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:05,359 Speaker 1: like the team responds to him. 874 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 3: I agree. 875 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: This is a young team, it's a flawed team. The 876 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: fact that they did not give up despite being down 877 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: twenty one erl early. Usually that is the sign of 878 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 1: a team that's going to get better. They're young, they're flawed, 879 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,399 Speaker 1: but they're not giving up. And more importantly, they got 880 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: back to a point where they were within striking distance. 881 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: We'll see. I'm going to remain cautiously optimistic that maybe 882 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: this is just a Baylor team that's a work in 883 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 1: progress and not so much a foregone conclusion that they're 884 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: going to be terrible all season long. 885 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 3: No, they're not going to be terrible, but just how 886 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 3: much you know, how much work are Baylor fans and 887 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 3: administration people willing to access when you lose in a 888 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,600 Speaker 3: very dumb way in the Hail Mary game and fumbling 889 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 3: across the goal line and you start the game at 890 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,439 Speaker 3: sloppy at home as they did against BYU, not saying 891 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 3: BYU is you know, an automatic should be an automatic 892 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 3: win for Baylor. They're a tough team this year. And hey, 893 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 3: look I was elationally. 894 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 1: I was wrong on BYU too, because my comment about 895 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: this game was, I don't I think they're mirage on offense. 896 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what they are. Well, I don't know 897 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: if there's really anything, but I think Colonie Sataki knows 898 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: what he's got from a personnel standpoint, and he just 899 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: seems to be really good to find in the right 900 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: positions to put these guys in. Yeah, it doesn't need 901 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,359 Speaker 1: to be anything specific, doesn't need to even have a name. 902 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: It's just he's good at assembling the troops. And I 903 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 1: think this is a pretty good testament to why on 904 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 1: the k State side of things. 905 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 3: Well, I was just gonna say, Ty, please before we 906 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 3: run away too far. Baylor might be dangerous, Baylor might 907 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 3: be interesting, Baylor might be feisty, But in the end, Ty, 908 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 3: they were less than Jake continued, the guy I was 909 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 3: sitting on that I was waiting, I was I was 910 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 3: being patient. Let's go to Kansas State. 911 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,240 Speaker 1: It was forty two to twenty. K State beat Oklahoma State. 912 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: This was the version of Avery Johnson that gives you 913 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:55,800 Speaker 1: the warm fuzzies. 914 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 3: After like the first couple drives. 915 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: Yes, this was the Verdi five touchdowns total touchdowns. Got 916 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: to see the best of them through the air and 917 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: on the ground. He is a blur when he runs. 918 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 1: He is super fast and a real problem to try 919 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 1: and defend. You combine that with DJ Giddens, who had 920 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: an incredible game on the ground. K State rushed for 921 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 1: about three hundred as a team. This is the kind 922 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: of offense a Chris Climate wants to play. And the 923 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: reason now that I'm almost inclined to put k State 924 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 1: back atop This conversation totally separate from whatever goes on 925 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: with Utah. I don't know what's what their deal is 926 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:36,479 Speaker 1: because we're recording as they are playing. But k State 927 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: could run this exact offense the next six games and 928 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 1: no one's going to stop it. They could do the 929 00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:42,839 Speaker 1: exact same thing. 930 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 3: Who do they have? 931 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: I could read it off to you if you want 932 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 1: me to, I got to pull it up, but I 933 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 1: have it. They could do this the next six games 934 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 1: before they get to their final matchup against Iowa State 935 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: and the farming get. 936 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 3: At Colorado will be tough, but could. 937 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 1: They run on Colorado? 938 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 3: Though they should be able to Virginia feightsty but they 939 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 3: can do this. Kansas has been a very disappointing team. 940 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 3: Houston has shown a little bit of fight, but no 941 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,359 Speaker 3: offense to speak of, and so that's gonna put their 942 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 3: defense out. It's going to hang them out to dry Asu. 943 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 3: I'm not there. Cincinnati, Iowa State, I would say it's 944 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 3: gonna be extremely tough. 945 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 1: Iowa States to one, I would say to one, but 946 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 1: all the other ones, there's other six games that you listed. Yeah, 947 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 1: they could run this version of that offense where they 948 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 1: just pounded on the ground and be really really effective. 949 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 1: So I think we need to reassess where we're at 950 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,800 Speaker 1: with Kansas State. We also need to reassess the Oklahoma 951 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: State thing. We've been kind of warning about this now 952 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 1: for a few weeks running but they still can't run 953 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 1: the damn ball. 954 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 3: Dan, No, they can't. 955 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 1: Oli Gordon had seventy two yards in the first quarter, 956 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 1: it looked like they were finally going to get him going. 957 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 3: He finished, so he finally showed something. 958 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, he finished with seventy six yards. Okay, So once 959 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 1: k State made some adjustments, it was clear that they 960 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,320 Speaker 1: had shifted their focus. They found a way to bottle 961 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 1: up that run. And again they were another team that 962 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: were trying to put it all on Alan Bowman. And 963 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:08,839 Speaker 1: I'm glad Alan Bowman's good and healthy out there. He's 964 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: in his seventh or he's got a ton of game 965 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 1: experience at this point. I just don't think he's good 966 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 1: enough to lift Oklahoma State. And showed this game. 967 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 3: It showed this game, and unfortunately the Jean stribbling in 968 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 3: a losing effort went for like a buck sixty and 969 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 3: is one of the best two or three receivers in 970 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 3: this conference without a doubt. Yeah, I guess that's the 971 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 3: only question with ky State. On the k State side, 972 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 3: if I am a Wildcat fan, if I'm yelling emo 973 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 3: at everybody who winter, wonder who is that guy that 974 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 3: you are going to go to down four? Who is 975 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 3: that receiver? Because that was like the end of the 976 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 3: Will Howard era too. It was just like he needs guys, 977 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 3: and I think Avery Johnson obviously can offer something with 978 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 3: his legs that even though Will Howard was quite athletic 979 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 3: and could spring big runs, Avery Johnson's a different animal 980 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 3: at the ball. He is. I mean, they roll him 981 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,880 Speaker 3: out a lot, and he's got a lot of grass. Constantly, 982 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,440 Speaker 3: he makes a lot of very like sound disc visions 983 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 3: and about like when to run and when to throw. 984 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 3: His throwing isn't great, which is why he's running more 985 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 3: and more. But it got better today. 986 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 1: It did. 987 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 3: That's nice to see, but I don't, you know, they 988 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 3: just don't have poppet receiver like I'd love to see 989 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 3: from a contender right now. 990 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,359 Speaker 1: Chris climb And talked a little bit about the week 991 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,720 Speaker 1: of practice. They all talk about the week of practice 992 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:23,799 Speaker 1: or guys look good in the week of practice. 993 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 3: But best week we've had. 994 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:30,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, he did say almost verbatim that about Avery Johnson 995 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 1: that earlier in the week he went them to like 996 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 1: thirty three of thirty five in practice. It was the 997 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 1: best he's seen of him. Sure, and he did look 998 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,360 Speaker 1: better throwing the football in this game. Still has some lumps. 999 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 1: He's never he should pass her, but he's. 1000 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 3: He should be one of the passers in this sport 1001 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 3: that has if the offense is constructed properly, because defenses 1002 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 3: have to respect his legs so much. Ty, it's my 1003 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 3: dream for people to respect my legs like the way 1004 00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 3: defenses should be respecting Avery Johnson's legs. So should be 1005 00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,719 Speaker 3: whether it's in the RPO game, whether it's in play action, 1006 00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 3: whether it's rolling him out that he is going to 1007 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,440 Speaker 3: put a lot of people in conflict, and we should 1008 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,240 Speaker 3: see more big plays from this k State offense. 1009 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 1: I was super impressed by the k State performance, and 1010 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 1: after losing a BYU, I wasn't sure where to put 1011 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 1: up in now BYU with a nice win against Baylor, 1012 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if we have much choice, especially now 1013 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 1: that Oklahoma State lost again. I kind of feel like 1014 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 1: Utah aside, we just by default have to put k 1015 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,800 Speaker 1: State and BYU a top kind of our own personal 1016 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: power rankings for this conference. 1017 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,320 Speaker 3: Down thirteen to three. UTI is right now to Arizona 1018 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 3: Middle lateish third. 1019 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 1: Quarter point number seven. Yeah no, Matthew Sluka, but no problem, 1020 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:55,320 Speaker 1: no issue. UNLV destroyed. Where is my sound? 1021 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 3: Guess who just got borded? 1022 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 1: Destroyed? Fresno State fifty nine to fourteen man with hajaj 1023 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 1: Malik Williams their backup quarterback now the starting quarterback who 1024 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 1: came over from the Campbell Fighting Campbell's Dan yep. Three 1025 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:19,399 Speaker 1: hundred and one in total yardage, four total touchdowns. At 1026 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 1: one point, they led this game thirty one to nothing. 1027 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:22,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was immediate. 1028 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 1: This was a flash fry, an incredible showing after what 1029 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,399 Speaker 1: I can only imagine was a very very distracting week. Now, 1030 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 1: we did see some of the so you always see this, 1031 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 1: but for whatever it's worth to you, in the immediate 1032 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 1: aftermath of the Sluka thing, we did see a lot 1033 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 1: of supportive social media postings from other UNLV players that 1034 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:49,239 Speaker 1: we're excited Hodjemlak Williams is going to be the quarterback. Yes, right. 1035 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 1: They seem very supportive of that. Nobody was really hanging 1036 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 1: their head. There's always one of two ways that these 1037 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 1: things can go. There is the season's going to bottom 1038 00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 1: out now because we lost one of, if not our 1039 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:04,240 Speaker 1: best player. Or are they gonna go full varsity blues 1040 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:07,120 Speaker 1: on it and just win to spite him. Yeah, they 1041 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: wanted to spite him. They want to spite Matthew Sluca 1042 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,720 Speaker 1: and I just kept thinking while I was watching parts 1043 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: of this game, no wonder they didn't pay him. Save 1044 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: the money for this guy, because this guy looked really 1045 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 1: good and what was playing in arguably one of the 1046 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 1: biggest games of the season. So not only did he 1047 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: put to bed a lot of the questions I think 1048 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:31,760 Speaker 1: we had about UNLV and can they operate their offense 1049 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 1: without Matthew Sluca. This is not to say Fresno has 1050 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 1: a lockdown defense, mind you, that was a problem last year. 1051 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 1: I still think it's a problem this year, but nonetheless 1052 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 1: a really positive performance. We do have to start asking 1053 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: the question now, because we're through Week five, is UNLV 1054 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 1: the best G five team? Are they the best G five? 1055 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 2: Are? 1056 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,919 Speaker 3: In that handful of conversation At the moment, Poise State 1057 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,879 Speaker 3: is up a couple of touchdowns on Wazoo. I think 1058 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:59,280 Speaker 3: it's thirty one seventeen, Ashton genty running wild as expected. Yeah, 1059 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 3: with what's happening in the Sun Belts, with you know, 1060 00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:06,120 Speaker 3: app State going down the way that they have early 1061 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 3: on the season. You'll get into app State stuff later on, 1062 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:13,759 Speaker 3: but yeah, at the moment, they're looking real strong. I mean, 1063 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 3: the defensive performance against what I assumed it was going 1064 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 3: to be a pretty good Presdo State offense. I don't 1065 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:19,879 Speaker 3: know how beat up there are or anything. I don't 1066 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 3: know the context around it in this moment, but that 1067 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:23,720 Speaker 3: is that is quite the statement. 1068 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,880 Speaker 1: The way that this thing is shaping up is very 1069 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 1: much unlvmboise out west. James Madison is scoring points in 1070 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 1: buckets right now. 1071 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 3: Alonza Barnett had six more touchdowns. 1072 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,480 Speaker 1: He's got twelve touchdowns in two weeks, which is video 1073 00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 1: game numbers. They won by putting up sixty three points. 1074 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,839 Speaker 1: They had seventy a week ago. Jmu is probably in 1075 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:50,440 Speaker 1: that conversation. Tulane, who has a couple losses but may 1076 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 1: end up winning their conference, hammered USF by thirty five points. 1077 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 1: Both Army and Navy rolled. 1078 00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 3: They're right there. 1079 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: They probably deserve to be in that conversation as well. 1080 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,959 Speaker 1: And I you lost the NC State they lost by seven. 1081 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: They acquitted themselves to think fairly well, but they lost 1082 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 1: that game. Memphis also won, but Memphis lost a week ago. 1083 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,399 Speaker 1: It is starting to kind of work itself out. And 1084 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: I am very curious to see where this conversation is at, 1085 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 1: like two to three weeks from now, because I think 1086 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,799 Speaker 1: you pointed out. The interesting part of now having a 1087 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:31,160 Speaker 1: G five spot in this college football playoff is, unlike 1088 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: the way that some of these other playoff spots are decided, 1089 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 1: this almost has an old school college football field to it, 1090 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: where everyone's gonna play their games and then a bunch 1091 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 1: of people are going to vote on who they think 1092 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 1: is best. 1093 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:44,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta win your conference. Right. 1094 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,359 Speaker 1: I believe somebody is going to bait, yeah, you gotta 1095 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 1: win your conference. But in effect, somebody is going to elect, 1096 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 1: is going to vote on who the national championship. Who 1097 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:55,319 Speaker 1: gets an. 1098 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 3: Five national champion? 1099 00:52:56,719 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? Level is and that's kind of neat. 1100 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,760 Speaker 3: And it all goes through Holy Cross with you losing 1101 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:03,840 Speaker 3: SLUKA and now Bobby Chesney at JMU. 1102 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 1: So more to come on that front, but a lot 1103 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,319 Speaker 1: of excitement on the Group of five level, and this 1104 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: I think is paramount among them. Given where we've been 1105 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,160 Speaker 1: over the last week or so, point number eight, please 1106 00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 1: some high profile quarterback questions that I guess maybe sort 1107 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 1: of we answered this week. The two games that I 1108 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 1: wanted to throw your way are the Michigan game Michigan 1109 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,279 Speaker 1: beat Minnesota twenty seven to twenty four. Yeah, and the 1110 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,359 Speaker 1: Oklahoma game, Right, So the Michigan side, there's the whole 1111 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 1: question of Alex Orgi as a thrower through for thirty 1112 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:38,479 Speaker 1: some odd yards a week ago. 1113 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 3: Is it a question ti through for. 1114 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: Eighty I'm gonna turn this over to you. I'm gonna 1115 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 1: turn this over to you. Yeah, for eighty six yards, 1116 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:48,360 Speaker 1: a touchdown and a pick in this went over Minnesota. 1117 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 1: They also, by the way, nearly gave up a twenty 1118 00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:51,800 Speaker 1: one point lead and lost. 1119 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 3: Let me should have that was not an off side. 1120 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,920 Speaker 1: It was not off sides on that on site kick. No, 1121 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 1: Minnesota got that kick and should have had a chance. 1122 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 3: They got dropped. Nesota got completely jobbed on that call. 1123 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:03,479 Speaker 3: Doesn't mean they're necessarily going to drive down the field 1124 00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,920 Speaker 3: and win. They got jobbed on that call, and it 1125 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 3: was very strange, very strange. The other side of this 1126 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 3: is the Oklahoma game. 1127 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:12,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, Oklahoma basically built the whole plane out of Michael 1128 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 1: Hawkins junior, their true freshman quarterback, and their defense. To 1129 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 1: be fair, Yeah, beat Auburn on the road. So quarterback 1130 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:23,880 Speaker 1: questions abound. If you want to take a Peyton Thorn 1131 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: left turn and talk about Auburn's quarterback questions, you can 1132 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 1: do so as well. But what is the state of 1133 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:35,399 Speaker 1: the Michigan, the Oklahoma, maybe the Auburn quarterback situation right now. 1134 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:38,040 Speaker 3: I don't know when Michigan's luck is going to run out. 1135 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 3: You could argue that it already did against Texas, but 1136 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 3: it's not a sustainable way to play against good teams. 1137 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 3: And I don't necessarily think Minnesota is that good team, 1138 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,280 Speaker 3: but they almost came back like a good team should 1139 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 3: have now given Michigan's limitations on offense and what Minnesota 1140 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 3: was able to do against a beat up Michigan defense. 1141 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 3: Mind you, but we're starting to get into the territory 1142 00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 3: where everybodys a little bit beat up throwing the ball. 1143 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 3: Darius Taylor ran hard had ten nice moments against his 1144 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 3: Michigan defense. They have no passing game. I don't know 1145 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:10,359 Speaker 3: how you can do anything meaningful in the Big Ten 1146 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:13,640 Speaker 3: without a passing game of some consequence. And like Ioways 1147 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 3: tried it and then they lose forty two to nothing 1148 00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:19,320 Speaker 3: in the Big Ten championship game. And so the Michigan 1149 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 3: bar is having a passing game of some consequence. It 1150 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,839 Speaker 3: doesn't need to be a passing team. It doesn't need 1151 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 3: to have an explosive passing attack, but Michigan has nothing. 1152 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:33,440 Speaker 3: Third and nine feels like a death sentence for Michigan. 1153 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 3: The way that moment, the way that the Fox booth 1154 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 3: was celebrating. Yeah, early on YEP three it was rainy. 1155 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:41,440 Speaker 3: It's still awful. 1156 00:55:41,640 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 1: A three yard pop pass, you know, kind of padding 1157 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:48,799 Speaker 1: Michigan fans padding Alex Orgie on the head for completing Yeah, 1158 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 1: what should be a routine throw kind of tells you 1159 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 1: everything you need to know. The expectations could not be 1160 00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: lower for him as a passer again, ten of eighteen 1161 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 1: eighty six yards. It's it's very much based around the 1162 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,240 Speaker 1: ground game and what they could do on defense. 1163 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 3: There was just some weird coaching in this game. Michigan 1164 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 3: was just snapping the ball super quickly while sitting on 1165 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,320 Speaker 3: a lead late in this game. And then I was 1166 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 3: watching this game on mute for most of it, just 1167 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 3: because I can't listen to a lot of like bad 1168 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 3: football broadcasting, not that Sorry, let's be clear, I'm not 1169 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 3: calling the broadcasters bad. I'm calling the football bad that 1170 00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 3: was being played. And just to hear people describing like, oh, 1171 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:35,200 Speaker 3: that was a tough attempt from that Michigan side. There 1172 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 3: is something about Minnesota keeping two high safeties on defense 1173 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 3: in critical situations against this Michigan offense. And then when 1174 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 3: I flipped the sound on, all I heard was Joel 1175 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 3: Klatt losing his mind over it. I was like, Okay, 1176 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 3: I'm not going crazy. The other people are seeing what 1177 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,320 Speaker 3: I'm seeing that Minnesota is not stacking the box against 1178 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 3: a team who can't pass in a crucial situation. So 1179 00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 3: Minnesota with some weird, it seemed decisions, and Michigan seemed 1180 00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:05,880 Speaker 3: poorly coached down the stretch, and it's gonna be a 1181 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 3: different kind of back half of the season. It feels 1182 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:09,400 Speaker 3: like for Michigan. 1183 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 1: You had locked up Auburn to beat Oklahoma. 1184 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 3: Oh man, I really really thought good things. Yeah, and 1185 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,479 Speaker 3: a lot of people did. Auburn was a very popular pick. Yeah, 1186 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 3: freshman making his first start on the road in a 1187 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:23,800 Speaker 3: tough place in Michael Hawkins yep, how he looked. Okay, 1188 00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 3: Michael Hawkins, Yeah yeah, I mean all things considered. Being 1189 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 3: thrust into that moment, figured that he wouldn't be starting 1190 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,240 Speaker 3: this year unless Jacksonarald got hurt. Jackson Arld didn't get hurt, 1191 00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 3: at least to any consequence, and he's thrust into the 1192 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 3: starting role for Oklahoma football, which is a huge deal 1193 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 3: as a true freshman. Sure, and to come in and 1194 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 3: run like he did, to complete the passes he did 1195 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 3: somewhat downfield against an Auburn team that was looking to 1196 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 3: scratch and claw its way back to respectability and made plays. 1197 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:55,640 Speaker 3: It looked like Auburn was positioning themselves nicely. Then Peyton 1198 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 3: Thorn threw a brutal interception. 1199 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:00,200 Speaker 1: It's still a bad offense on both sides of it. This, 1200 00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: I agree, if we're being clear. Combined these teams were 1201 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 1: six of twenty five on third downs. This was not 1202 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 1: any kind of offensive juggernaut of a game. But Oklahoma 1203 00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 1: basically came back and won this game. Scored seventeen points 1204 00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. They were able to force some 1205 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: mistakes on the Auburn side. More importantly, Michael Hawkins did 1206 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 1: turn the ball over at all. It's huge on the road, 1207 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 1: tough place to play. Not turn the ball over as 1208 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 1: big deal. So we'll see if he continues to mature 1209 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 1: as quarterback. It seems like it's going to be his now. 1210 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 1: They won the game, they've got to buy and then 1211 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 1: they've got Texas, and then after Texas, by the way 1212 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 1: still on the schedule, as you know, because we've talked 1213 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:48,280 Speaker 1: about this brutal schedule that they've got. They also have 1214 00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 1: a road game at Old Miss, a road game at Miszoo, 1215 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 1: come back home against Alabama, before closing out the year 1216 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: on the road against LSU. So he needs to grow 1217 00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 1: up in a hurry. But this is going to start 1218 00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: very good start. Next point number nine unranked, but maybe 1219 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 1: not for long du maybe not for real. We have Colorado, Colorado, 1220 00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 1: my man, one of my locks. 1221 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I like them as well going into this. 1222 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 1: AGA went to Orlando. They were impressive against UCF. They're 1223 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:25,520 Speaker 1: now undefeated since losing to Nebraska a couple of weeks ago. 1224 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:31,720 Speaker 1: The defense, as we've said here, is better. It is 1225 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 1: not a shutdown defense. It is maybe still a below 1226 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 1: average defense, but even that is a serious improvement for 1227 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: this team, which has no real running game to speak of, 1228 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 1: but does have Shador Sanders in a pretty good passing attack. 1229 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 3: They made plays on the ground tonight. They made some 1230 00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 3: plays on the ground. 1231 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 1: I'm not going to pretend, though, that this is an 1232 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 1: offense built. 1233 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 3: They're not led by it. It's not a balanced offense. 1234 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:58,720 Speaker 3: Their strength is not the ground, but they did take 1235 00:59:58,720 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 3: a step forward tonight. 1236 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 1: So the combination of having a defense that I think 1237 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:07,120 Speaker 1: is better of having one of, if not the best 1238 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:11,360 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in college football and Shador Okay having a pretty 1239 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 1: good receiver room and also having Travis Hunter is a 1240 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 1: pretty good combination that got one loss down through five 1241 01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:22,960 Speaker 1: weeks of the season. Colorado probably has a case to 1242 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:24,959 Speaker 1: be made that they should be a ranked team. 1243 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 3: Probably who do they have this coming week? I'll pull 1244 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 3: it up there. There's that it matters in terms of 1245 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 3: their resume thus far. 1246 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,880 Speaker 1: Right, And there are some other ones here too that 1247 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:37,200 Speaker 1: I think we can also list off, should list off 1248 01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: as part of this conversation. Rutgers. Rutgers is four and 1249 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 1: zero for the first time in over a decade. Kyle 1250 01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: Manangai had one thirty two on the ground. They held 1251 01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:49,120 Speaker 1: down Washington's offenses, which I think is pretty good offense 1252 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 1: for most of the game. 1253 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 3: Jonah Coleman ran well he did. I think the big 1254 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,280 Speaker 3: thing was third downs, right, Rutgers got off the field. 1255 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 3: That was the big deal for and like they just 1256 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 3: they made fewer mistakes. Did watch they have a bunch 1257 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 3: of penalties? 1258 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:04,720 Speaker 6: Yeah? 1259 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:08,439 Speaker 1: This one, I mean it was it was not their 1260 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 1: best showing for sure. 1261 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 3: Right by the way. 1262 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:12,880 Speaker 1: Colorado's on by next week, but then they've got k 1263 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 1: State the weekend's. 1264 01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 3: Great week to have a bye, great week. 1265 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 1: To have a bye. Rutgers is another one, maybe going 1266 01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:22,400 Speaker 1: to be ranked. How about Indiana and Duke combined ten 1267 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 1: and oh Dan. 1268 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:26,200 Speaker 3: Duke had to come back in a pretty fierce way. 1269 01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 1: To beat their rival UNC twenty one twenty. They are 1270 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 1: five and oh for the first time since nineteen ninety four. Meanwhile, 1271 01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 1: Indiana beat Maryland by fourteen. They are five and oh 1272 01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 1: for the first time since nineteen sixty seven. Yeah, it's 1273 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 1: been a minute, It's been a minute. 1274 01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:49,440 Speaker 3: They the war machine, the mech warrior that is Indiana football. 1275 01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:52,920 Speaker 3: Not a great day for Curtis Rourke initially, but continued 1276 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 3: to make plays. Maryland was not able to do much 1277 01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 3: once they were unable to capitalize on short fields and turnovers. Right, 1278 01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 3: So this was a really strong effort from Indiana in 1279 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 3: that they didn't play all that well for a chunk 1280 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:13,439 Speaker 3: of this game and then continued at it and won 1281 01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:15,520 Speaker 3: a winnable and what should have been a winnable game 1282 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:18,600 Speaker 3: for them. And I don't know if you noticed the 1283 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 3: ref setting just an abdominal abominable screen on a long 1284 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:28,680 Speaker 3: Roman Henvy touchdown run. But otherwise, you know, I think 1285 01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,880 Speaker 3: Indiana is probably vulnerable on defense to the right teams. 1286 01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 3: But like it's year one of Kurtz Signetti, like they're 1287 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,120 Speaker 3: gonna they're not a finished product, and they're winning the 1288 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 3: winnable games and what you say, five to zero for 1289 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,400 Speaker 3: the first time since the Spanish American War or something 1290 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:41,680 Speaker 3: like that. 1291 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels that way. 1292 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 3: It's great. 1293 01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 1: Speaking of abominable. Another team that I want to throw 1294 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 1: out here as one to keep your eye on. Not ranked, 1295 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 1: but if they continue things, they could be What about smu. 1296 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 3: Oh, just laid the lumber on Florida State. Yes, what 1297 01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 3: does that mean in. 1298 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four, Well, it doesn't mean as as much 1299 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,760 Speaker 1: as it used to. But being four and one in 1300 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 1: a power conference now is meaningful. And they look really 1301 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:10,960 Speaker 1: good in this game. Now, a lot of teams look 1302 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 1: good against Florida State. It's not necessarily an accomplishment, but 1303 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 1: to put up forty two points to be solid, Kevin 1304 01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 1: Jennings looked real solid throwing in the football. Defensively, do 1305 01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 1: what they did to Florida State. They forced a bunch turnover. 1306 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: DJU had three picks in this game. Again, that's not 1307 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:33,360 Speaker 1: necessarily a unique thing in the year Lord twenty twenty four. However, 1308 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:37,720 Speaker 1: twelve of thirty throwing the football, two touchdowns, three picks 1309 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 1: for DJU is certainly not a good look. Florida State's 1310 01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 1: one and four, but SMU being four and one is 1311 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 1: certainly something to keep your eye on, especially given the 1312 01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: fact that you look at the schedule and it's not bad. 1313 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 1: Undefeated in Power Conference play, undefeated in Power Conference play. 1314 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: There on the road next week against Louisville, which, depending 1315 01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 1: on the way polls break fun could actually end up 1316 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:05,479 Speaker 1: being the only matchup between ranked opponents in Week six. 1317 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 1: But after that, it's Stanford, It's Duke, It's pitt It's 1318 01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 1: Boston College, it's Virginia, it's cow It's a lot of teams. 1319 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:15,400 Speaker 1: Frankly that I don't know if we're all that confident 1320 01:04:15,800 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 1: and any of them at this point. So suddenly keep 1321 01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 1: your eye on since maybe that quarterback change, it seems 1322 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 1: as if they have turned over a new leaf here 1323 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 1: and have definitely played more meaningful for. 1324 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,480 Speaker 3: And your confidence maybe justified. It took a hit to 1325 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:30,320 Speaker 3: start out the year, but if you were playing the 1326 01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:33,240 Speaker 3: long game tie, maybe SMU has something. 1327 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:37,440 Speaker 1: Here final three points. Yeah, you wanted to talk about 1328 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:38,880 Speaker 1: USC coming back. 1329 01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:41,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a real ugly start. There were like 1330 01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 3: muffed punts. It was an interception Wisconsin randomly connected on 1331 01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 3: like a sixty three yard touchdown pass, which, like I 1332 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 3: rewound on YouTube TV to make sure I was awake 1333 01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:53,960 Speaker 3: and just fully paying attention to reality. It all went 1334 01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:57,440 Speaker 3: away for Wisconsin in the second half and USC, by 1335 01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:00,520 Speaker 3: the way, just again a USC side by here. Jacoby 1336 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 3: Lane's real good. Oh Yeahjkoby Lane has earned such a 1337 01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:07,200 Speaker 3: really nice go to receiver for the Trojan and catches. 1338 01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:08,800 Speaker 1: For one oh five and two touchdowns in this game. 1339 01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 3: In a letdown spot for USC after the Michigan game, 1340 01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:14,880 Speaker 3: they just looked sloppy early on. I mentioned, you know 1341 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 3: the interception Familler Moss the muff not Yeah, it was 1342 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 3: a It was a weird like Zachariah Branch I think 1343 01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 3: was the guy excuse me if I got it wrong, 1344 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 3: but he thought he touched it, but he didn't touch it, 1345 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 3: and then he chased it, and another guy chased it 1346 01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:31,600 Speaker 3: and knocked it, and Wisconsin recovered it and had a 1347 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:34,800 Speaker 3: short field, it was twenty one ten Wisconsin. The final 1348 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,320 Speaker 3: score was thirty eight to twenty one. I believe USC 1349 01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 3: had a pick six to close things out. A really 1350 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 3: impressive win for USC, A game maybe they don't win, 1351 01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 3: you know, last couple of seasons, but the defense tightened 1352 01:05:46,200 --> 01:05:48,680 Speaker 3: up in a huge way against Braydon Locke in Wisconsin, 1353 01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 3: and I think firmly established themselves as a dangerous Big 1354 01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:55,000 Speaker 3: ten team. Whatever that means in this moment, I don't know, 1355 01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:57,240 Speaker 3: but a really impressive win. 1356 01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. And I would say among other dangerous Big ten teams, 1357 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:03,360 Speaker 1: some of which we didn't get to here, Ohio State 1358 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:07,360 Speaker 1: one by thirty one. They did this against Michigan State. 1359 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 1: Now they looked really, really solid. It shouldn't really surprise 1360 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:14,520 Speaker 1: anybody that they did two touchdowns for Jeremiah Smith, one 1361 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:18,200 Speaker 1: on the ground, a nice one handed catch on the 1362 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:21,880 Speaker 1: right side of the end zone earlier in the game. Yeah, 1363 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 1: so he obviously is as good as advertised. Eight and 1364 01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:27,320 Speaker 1: Childs wasn't bad in this game. It was just they 1365 01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:32,600 Speaker 1: were overmatched by Oh yeah, that's much much better. Of course. 1366 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:35,520 Speaker 1: The other team that I wanted to call out here 1367 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 1: place I could very quickly. Nebraska had a really rough 1368 01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,800 Speaker 1: go of things. Oh man, I was so happy I 1369 01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 1: did not watch this first half. 1370 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 3: I was monitoring, and I was like, you know what, 1371 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 3: if there's something crazy that happens, I can find the channel. 1372 01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:50,680 Speaker 3: I don't need to do this to my day right now. 1373 01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 1: If you went heavy on Nebraska minus ten on the 1374 01:06:53,640 --> 01:06:56,080 Speaker 1: road at Purdue and you watched that first half, which 1375 01:06:56,120 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: finished at zero apiece, you were probably ripping your hair out. Nebraska, 1376 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:03,960 Speaker 1: though even after three quarters it was only seven to three. 1377 01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:06,960 Speaker 1: It was a tight game, but they finally started to 1378 01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:10,200 Speaker 1: assert themselves a little bit more. They were well, yeah, 1379 01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:13,080 Speaker 1: twenty one points in the fourth quarter, ended up winning 1380 01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:15,880 Speaker 1: going away twenty eight to ten. So nice win for them. 1381 01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:18,200 Speaker 1: This is not me making any kind of statements like 1382 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:20,560 Speaker 1: Nebraska could or should be ranked or is going to 1383 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:22,960 Speaker 1: be playing for anything of real merit. But to have 1384 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 1: four wins at this point I think, to feel good 1385 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,120 Speaker 1: about where they're at. To just go on the road 1386 01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:29,280 Speaker 1: as a ten point favor to cover the point spread 1387 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 1: in its own right, I think is meaningful with the 1388 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 1: true freshman quarterback, so good on them. 1389 01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:34,120 Speaker 6: Good. 1390 01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:34,800 Speaker 3: I agree. 1391 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:38,160 Speaker 1: The other two and final points here that we want 1392 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: to make before we get to your tweets and your 1393 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 1: messages and our dood alerts. There is the question of 1394 01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 1: Cam Rising Dan. We're going to make this a weekly segment. Now, 1395 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:55,240 Speaker 1: where is Cam rising, cam on Rising? Where is he er? 1396 01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:00,920 Speaker 1: Where is he? He's a healing tie, he's always healing. 1397 01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:03,200 Speaker 3: He's got the massage gun, he's got an ice pack, 1398 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:06,320 Speaker 3: he's got a splint somewhere. I hope he's okay. He's 1399 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:07,880 Speaker 3: fun to watch. I hope he plays soon. 1400 01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 1: Is he gonna play soon? 1401 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 3: Because yeah, I hope he does. 1402 01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 1: This year has already notes of last year where it 1403 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:18,840 Speaker 1: was like, Oh, he's gonna be ready to go, don't worry, 1404 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,519 Speaker 1: don't worry. Right the guys in Utah radio is talking 1405 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,519 Speaker 1: him up. He's healthy, he's gonna be good, he's working, 1406 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 1: he's got pads on. Now. Never hear hide nor hair 1407 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:28,519 Speaker 1: from this guy. 1408 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:32,080 Speaker 3: No, it was Isaac Wilson again. Last I checked, it 1409 01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:33,920 Speaker 3: was thirteen to three. This is going to be great 1410 01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:36,479 Speaker 3: for people listening in a day or two these live 1411 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:40,000 Speaker 3: updates for Utah Arizona. But nonetheless, TI I like to 1412 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 3: be informed sixteen to ten Arizona in the fourth quarter 1413 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:43,959 Speaker 3: right now. 1414 01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 1: Isaac Wilson's doing okay, but yuck on the whole here. 1415 01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:51,720 Speaker 1: Hope Cam Rising can get healthy, but where in the 1416 01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 1: world is he still hurt? Allegedly? And the final thing 1417 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:59,760 Speaker 1: I wanted to call out here was just send a 1418 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,759 Speaker 1: shit out, send our thoughts to people who were affected 1419 01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:03,800 Speaker 1: by this storm. 1420 01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 3: This hurricane, oh man, Helene. 1421 01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 1: Awful awful almost stuff, man, Yeah, awful awful stuff. There 1422 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:11,799 Speaker 1: were a couple FCS games that were canceled. The only 1423 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:16,760 Speaker 1: game of consequence for us in what we cover that 1424 01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:20,600 Speaker 1: was affected was the Liberty app State game, which was 1425 01:09:20,600 --> 01:09:22,519 Speaker 1: because boone, North Carolina was underwater. 1426 01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 3: Underwater. It's awful. 1427 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:26,320 Speaker 1: It's catastrophic flooding. So I feel bad for everybody down there. 1428 01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:28,160 Speaker 1: I know a lot of folks that listen in this 1429 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:29,920 Speaker 1: We have a lot of folks that listen in that 1430 01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:33,000 Speaker 1: part of the country. So we hope if you were affected, 1431 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,840 Speaker 1: that you're okay, that none of your belongings took on 1432 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:38,479 Speaker 1: too much damage, that everybody that you know and love 1433 01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,479 Speaker 1: is safe. That's the scariest stuff. And you hate to 1434 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:46,040 Speaker 1: see those pictures. Obviously, when you see genuinely terrible stuff 1435 01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:49,439 Speaker 1: like this, not the right move to play the football game. 1436 01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:51,800 Speaker 1: You can't play the football game. I think everybody was 1437 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:54,720 Speaker 1: in agreement there. The kicker, though, is that they're not 1438 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: going to reschedule it. No, they're not going to reschedule it, 1439 01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:01,479 Speaker 1: which is a bummer from a football star standpoint, because 1440 01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 1: this is one of those G five games that that 1441 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 1: I that you that many people were most looking forward 1442 01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:13,040 Speaker 1: to seeing. Caden Psalter, Liberty's quarterback, responded to the news 1443 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:15,720 Speaker 1: that the game was not being rescheduled by posting a 1444 01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:20,559 Speaker 1: duck emoji on Instagram implying that you know, app State 1445 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 1: was Duckenham yep. And then Quentin Cooley also posted an 1446 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,160 Speaker 1: Instagram story saying that app State was scared to play him. 1447 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,720 Speaker 1: So let me just say this, guys to. 1448 01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 3: Their children, be careful what you say. They are kids. 1449 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:38,360 Speaker 1: They are kids. Yeah, and sometimes little self awareness goes 1450 01:10:38,360 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 1: a long way. Sometimes it takes a while to learn 1451 01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:42,760 Speaker 1: that self awareness. So I agree, I want to be 1452 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:47,080 Speaker 1: too mean. It is, though, extremely rich for anybody from 1453 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:49,479 Speaker 1: Liberty to claim that an opponent is too scared to 1454 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 1: play them, because Liberty strength the schedule per the latest 1455 01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:55,559 Speaker 1: run of the ESPN FPI is one hundred and thirty fourth, 1456 01:10:56,760 --> 01:10:59,679 Speaker 1: which if you're a math major, if you pay attention 1457 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:04,240 Speaker 1: to this sport at all. That is literally the easiest schedule. Yeah, 1458 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,879 Speaker 1: in college football, at least that state is scheduling Clemson 1459 01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 1: mm hmm, Liberty scheduled like the Clem's barbecue and trimural team. 1460 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 1: That's what we're looking at with this schedule. Okay, So 1461 01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:19,800 Speaker 1: I get where they're coming from. I understand everybody's disappointed, 1462 01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,320 Speaker 1: but a little self awareness sometimes goes a long way. 1463 01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:25,920 Speaker 1: This has been a horrible thing. Sucks that the game's 1464 01:11:25,960 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 1: not going to be played. But if you're going to 1465 01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:31,240 Speaker 1: make statements like this about anybody being scared of anybody, 1466 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:32,960 Speaker 1: look in the mirror a little bit. It's not their 1467 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:36,439 Speaker 1: fault that their aidees didn't schedule anybody. I get it. 1468 01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:39,920 Speaker 1: I understand the disappointment. I'm disappointed too, but I saw 1469 01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:41,080 Speaker 1: that and it's like, you know what, I got to 1470 01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:44,040 Speaker 1: say something about it. Yeah, got to say something about it. 1471 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:47,519 Speaker 1: Because this is a very easy schedule. They could go 1472 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:50,080 Speaker 1: undefeated against this easily and they still might not be 1473 01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 1: considered for that playoff spot.
