We're going to 180 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: get into Georgia, Clemson and Bama, Miami and Penn State, 181 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: wisconsint in UCLA, LSU, all these big games I mentioned 182 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: at the top, how it seems like those cross divisional 183 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 1: matchups were actually quite interesting. Travis, just in the course 184 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: of us doing the live stream here fed another one 185 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: to me that I thought was really interesting and really 186 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: telling and provides further context just on the clunker fest, 187 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: if you want to call it that, that we saw 188 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: in one. In addition to those eleven games that were 189 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: won by the lower divisional opponent, seven more of those 190 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: games were one possession games where the favorite just barely won. 191 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: So it was like this was the theme all throughout 192 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: college football. I don't know if it was the COVID 193 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: hangover from the weird year that was. I don't know 194 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: if it was just normal Week one jitters, but a 195 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: lot of clunkers out there. Good high level offense was 196 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: really at a premium. That's why I think we'll talk 197 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: a little bit more about UCLA, excuse me, and why 198 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: I thought they were really impressive. What happened in the 199 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: Pac twelve was just like inconscionable. Yeah, it was just 200 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: mind blowing. There were other games around college football that 201 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: Iowa State like, what's up with that? I don't know, 202 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: like awesome to have college football back. We heard how 203 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: great it was to have the fans back no fewer 204 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: than two million times in watching the action that was yesterday. 205 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: But aside from the fact that college football is back 206 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: and in like normal form, the level of play I 207 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 1: would expect would increase dramatically between week one week two 208 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: because it just was not quite there in Week one. 209 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: All be it very very fun. 210 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: Open up your fifth grade lunch bag and get ready 211 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: to dip in some clunker ruse. Yeah, I mean that's 212 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 2: that's what it was. It was clunk rock, I don't know, whatever, 213 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: whatever pun you want. To do with that, and just tenuously, 214 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 2: you can ask a Georgia Tech fan, you can ask 215 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: a Vanderbilt fan. You can ask a Washington fan. You 216 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 2: can ask a col fan, you can ask a Wazoo fan. 217 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 2: You can go across the country. When that clunker, win 218 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 2: that clunker, and it's expected that Week one is going 219 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: to give us some raw, unrealized, not fully shapen, inconsistent, undisciplined, 220 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 2: all of that, you gotta win them. As somebody who 221 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 2: watched his team win a clunker, one and O is 222 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 2: better than oh and one, ty, it is one and 223 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 2: oh is always better than oh to one. And look, 224 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 2: I watched the complete day and days of football as 225 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 2: best as I could, which was, you know, hours, I 226 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 2: probably watched I don't know, twenty hours of football these 227 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 2: past few days. Nobody's good like. Nobody's good like even 228 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 2: Alabama has a couple of issues, not real issues, but 229 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 2: aside from like three teams, nobody's feeling amazing. So going 230 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: into the week or going into going out of the week, 231 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: mostly nobody's who they're going to be. That is largely 232 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 2: a good thing, but for some teams it might not be. 233 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,839 Speaker 2: But nobody's good right now, and that's that's okay. One 234 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 2: to zero is always better than zero to one. We 235 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: have our win your Clunkers shirt ready to roll various hues. 236 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 2: We're good to go later in the season. When you're clunkers, 237 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: take a deep breath, exhale. I know I did after 238 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: getting worked up during that Oregon matchup against Presno State 239 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 2: that they snuck out when you're clunkers, and it's okay, Yeah, 240 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 2: Bama Ucla. Just play the game now and we'll get 241 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 2: the whole thing over with. That's true. Socials are pumped. Sure. 242 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: Let's start though with the show piece of the weekend. 243 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: We've been talking this game up since we saw it 244 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: on the schedule many many months in the working here 245 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 1: on our show alone. Georgia Clemson. This was the neutral 246 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: site game. They played it in Charlotte at Bank of 247 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: America Stadium. Exactly zero offensive touchdowns in this game. 248 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,479 Speaker 2: Dan correct, actually. 249 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: Correct, and strangely enough, for as adverse to that setup 250 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: as I usually am, I found this game highly entertaining. 251 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 2: Ye I thought it was mostly entertaining, Yeah, because the 252 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 2: defenses lived up to their billing. But I personally need 253 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: more in the way of adjustments or understanding of what 254 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 2: isn't isn't working, which is an adjustment element and creativity. 255 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: And I know it's week one and these teams, these 256 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 2: offenses specifically, are not going to look like what they're 257 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 2: going to look like in mid October, which is a 258 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: great thing for Clemson and a good thing for Georgia 259 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 2: because I think Georgia might have more of an excuse 260 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 2: given what wasn't on the field for Georgia's offense. But 261 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 2: there were stretches of this game er like man, they 262 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 2: are laying the lumber. Also, I wish there would be 263 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 2: a twenty six yard pass at some point. 264 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: I know, I know this was a defensive battle through 265 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: and through, and ultimately I think the point we discussed 266 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: on the previous show ended up being the right one. 267 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: It was Georgia's ability to generate pressure in some cases 268 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: without actually blitzing. It made a huge impact on this game. 269 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: Seven sacks of dj Uliangaloway, Yeah, a lot to overcome. 270 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: It's a lot to overcome. I don't know if it 271 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: was that his guys weren't getting opened down the field. 272 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, if the players were taking just too 273 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: long to develop. I don't know if it was just 274 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 1: that good of a pass rush by Georgia, but the 275 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: Clemson offensive line did not have any answers for that 276 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 1: front seven with Georgia, and as a result, you saw 277 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: a couple of things happen. You know, you saw Dju 278 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: threw a pick at one point in the second quarter 279 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: that was really the only touchdown in the game seventy 280 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: four yarder went back the other way. Beyond that, no 281 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: offensive touchdowns to speak of. You also saw at one 282 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: point later in the game, just because of that front, 283 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: Clemson all but abandoned the run. Outside of Dju scrambled 284 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: around a little bit, taking some sacks, which shows up 285 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: on the box score. Not a whole lot of rushing attempts, 286 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: not much of an attempt to stay super balanced on 287 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: that Clempson side, including. 288 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 2: Sacks point one yards. I don't know what ten percent 289 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 2: of three feet is, but it's not in feet. 290 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. And you know, on the Georgia side, we talk 291 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: about Clemson in some of their struggles on offense, because 292 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: the Georgia defense is very good, especially up front. Georgia's 293 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: offense struggled too. They just achieved a little bit more balanced, 294 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: but they were very risk averse. At one point I 295 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: was thinking to myself, were we watching the Jake from 296 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: era Georgia football again? 297 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 2: It was just that kind of game. 298 00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: It was going to have to be that kind of 299 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: game as we got into the flow of it, with 300 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: how good both defenses were just four and a half 301 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: yards per attempt for JT. Daniels. We didn't get any 302 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: answers as to who his go to guys are going 303 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: to be out wide, you know, like Brock Bauers the 304 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: tight end had a pretty good game. He got most 305 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: of the worstmen. Yeah, in the passing game, but beyond 306 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: that out wide, it's just it wasn't a game where 307 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: they took a lot of chances. If you're giving a game, 308 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: ball out if you're Georgia. I guessed to Zamir White 309 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: who had them, I'd give it to Nacobe Dean, But yeah, 310 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: on the offense, on the on the on the offense, 311 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: for sure, Nakobe Dean was great. On defense. We can 312 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: talk more about that if you want. But Zamir White 313 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: had a couple of big runs to really get things going. 314 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: So just a defensive slugfest. Usually that's not my brand 315 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: of football, but in this case, maybe it was because 316 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: it was sheer novelty of being Week one trying to 317 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: figure out who these teams were. 318 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. 319 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: I found the game very entertaining, despite the fact that 320 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: there wasn't a whole lot of scoring. So I thought 321 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: a really good way to start out the season. And 322 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: this is a game that we talked so much about 323 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: that it was it was good to actually see how 324 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: these teams stacked up. 325 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 2: It is fascinating that if you had asked Clemson fans 326 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 2: even the last couple of years, like, what's the position 327 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: group that hasn't been recruited and developed on the level 328 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 2: of others, I think unanimously they would point to offensive line. 329 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: Right if you look at the guys that have been drafted, 330 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 2: the guys who've been All acc All Conference, it's up 331 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: and down. The offense, up and down the defense on 332 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 2: all three levels of that defense. Receiver obviously has popped, 333 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: quarterback has popped. The offensive line has not been consistent. 334 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 2: I think it's Robbie Caldwell's the offensive line coach. You 335 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 2: remember him from Turkey Insemination Fame, Insemination Fame way back 336 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 2: when during this time of Vanderbilt. But it's a weakness. 337 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 2: It's a Clemson weakness that we saw Ohio State take 338 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 2: advantage of in the playoff last year. Clemson now on 339 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 2: a losing streak, to be clear, on a losing streak, 340 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: which is wild, and I anticipate this being something that 341 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: obviously the coaching staff knows. But Dju was uncomfortable for 342 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 2: four straight quarters. He was fully unco comfortable. There were 343 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 2: weird snap issues, there were timing issues, he was flushed constantly, 344 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 2: he had like half a second at times because of 345 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 2: how well Georgia got home And again, like you mentioned, 346 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 2: not with a lot of help, not a lot of 347 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 2: blitzing all the time. It was just the sheer violence 348 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 2: of the Georgia pass rush that got home a lot. 349 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, back to the drawing board for Clemson to 350 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 2: figure out a way to scheme around that. I'm sure 351 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 2: they knew going in Georgia was going to present a 352 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 2: pretty huge challenge there. But yeah, this Clemson team offensively, 353 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: it looked completely lost, completely And I get it's George 354 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 2: and I get that. I mean, you claim this might 355 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: be the best defensive line in the country after you know, 356 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 2: watching and previewing and all that. But this, this is Clemson. 357 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 2: They have to have answers they have to have answers 358 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 2: that results in a touchdown. Now a touchdown, we are 359 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 2: not asking a lot of a playoff caliber team. And 360 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 2: this goes both ways. Those were a touchdown on offense, 361 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 2: and so I came away ultimately, I guess neutral on Georgia. 362 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 2: It's I mean, it's impressive to win a game without 363 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: scoring an offensive touchdown, but at the same time, you've 364 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 2: recorded on an unprecedented level for your program. And even 365 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 2: knowing the guys that are out of this game, you know, 366 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 2: George Pickens, Washington, the tight end whatever, there are still 367 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 2: guys on this offense we're talking about. We came into 368 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 2: the season saying JT. Daniels is the best returning SEC 369 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 2: quarterback and we can't lead a touchdown drive. Granted, Clemson's 370 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 2: defense excellent, excellent, excellent, a touchdown drive that worries me especially, 371 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 2: and I know we're gonna get here, especially considering what 372 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 2: Georgia has on the other side of the conference potentially 373 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 2: in the championship game, especially with how fast Jamison Williams 374 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 2: is and how comfortable immediately Bryce Young looks, and how 375 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 2: good but not great, but deep that running back group 376 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 2: looks for Alabama that's what that's what we're comparing right now, 377 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 2: Georgia and Clemson against and I came away just sort 378 00:18:54,119 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 2: of uncleared now unclear, unmoved. I think it's all relative 379 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 2: to week one week, one week, one week, one week, 380 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: one week one. 381 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: Both teams will improve, but the criticism cuts both ways 382 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: for sure. On the offensive side of the ball. Georgia 383 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: wins ten to three, ten to three, very low scoring game. 384 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: I hope you bet the under. Only one member of 385 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: this broadcasting duo took Georgia, that's true, got luxury this week. 386 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: But one member also told you to bet against LSU 387 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: like seven months ago last night's game, so you know, 388 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: and I needed a dog to confirm it for me. 389 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: We'll get to that one momentarily. Let's talk about another 390 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 1: so called clunker, if you will. This one was earlier 391 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: in the day on Saturday, Penn State sixteen. Wisconstant tin 392 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: How much of this game did you get a chance 393 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: to watch? 394 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: I watched all of it. I watched most of it live, 395 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 2: and I caught everything that I missed. After the fact, 396 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 2: man's prepared to talk about. 397 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is another bad offensive game. This is a 398 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: genuinely bad offensive game. And it wasn't so much the 399 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: fact that, I mean, both defenses are going to be fine. 400 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: They're going to be very good. I don't think either 401 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: rises to the level of Clemson or Georgia frankly, but 402 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: for what they are, both defenses are very good. Both offenses, 403 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: though they got some stuff to work out. Gus and 404 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: Joel Klatt on the call, were bended over backwards to 405 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: try and sell this one as like a premier defensive 406 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: slug fest. It was really only that defensive guys, because 407 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: the offenses were bad, just brutal to watch. The reason 408 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: that Penn State won this game was because between the 409 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 1: two teams, they were the only one that decided after 410 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: halftime to make some adjustments. Sure, Nigger throwed a little 411 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: bit more downfield. They were gonna get away from some 412 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: of whatever they were doing the first half. I don't 413 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: know what that was. But they stopped doing that and 414 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: they started throwing a little bit more. Yeah, and they 415 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: had some success. Wisconsin did not change a damp thing. 416 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: It was the same, the same thing from kickoff until 417 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: the final gun. 418 00:20:58,440 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 2: They didn't change a damp thing. 419 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: For his part, the transfer from Clemson news starting running back, 420 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: I thought he ran with burst. Gus kept saying, puts 421 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: a foot in the ground and then he makes a 422 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: cut and he, you know, a really good one cut back. 423 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: I thought he looked the part definitely justified that decision. 424 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: But wis Conston didn't really change anything. And then when 425 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 1: they got down into scoring position in the red zone, 426 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: they're really bad, really bad. These are things they need 427 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 1: to work out. 428 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 2: They know it. 429 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: But they fumbled, they threw a pick, they had a 430 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 1: kick block. There were a couple other times down there 431 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: that they just couldn't convert. And between I think Penn 432 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: State making some adjustments and Wisconsin really struggling in the 433 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: red zone to figure itself out. That was the difference. 434 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 2: That was the difference. 435 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: If you watch nothing in this game, those are really 436 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: the two key elements that I think swung it in 437 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: Penn State's direction. 438 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, these are not new players for either of these teams. 439 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 2: On offense, you know, Graham Martz has now been in 440 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 2: this program. There's a ton of experience on the offensive line. 441 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 2: Chess malucy knew as the full time new starting running back. 442 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 2: He carried it like thirty times, right, the receivers, the 443 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 2: tight end, like this is a team that should be 444 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 2: in sync by now offensively with what they're trying to 445 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 2: do and with what they're trying to do and how 446 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 2: they're trying to do it. It just didn't work. Now 447 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 2: we might come to learn that Penn State's defense is 448 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 2: incredible and the secondary certainly look the part. They got 449 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 2: after Graham Mertz. I think that was probably a pleasant 450 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,959 Speaker 2: surprise to you and other Penn State fans that they 451 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 2: the pass rush was able to really cause some trouble 452 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: for Wisconsin, and that was sort of an unknown going in. 453 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 2: But yeah, there was a sloppiness to Wisconsin that we 454 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 2: have not come to expect, at least before last year, 455 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 2: that they would just get things done in bigger moments, 456 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: that they would trust their scheme and that they would 457 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 2: trust their players and their experience. And Wisconsin just didn't 458 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: look the part on offense. Now defensively, it's a different story. Now. 459 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 2: They gave up those big plays, a couple of big 460 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 2: passes to Johan Dotson Parker Washington was impressive. I came 461 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 2: away really impressed with Noah Kane. In some bigger moments, 462 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 2: I got some like Clyde Edwards, a layer vibes, a 463 00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 2: couple like checkdowns. Yeah, I think Clyde's a little quick. No, No, 464 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 2: Clyde's definitely quicker. I'm talking about just that ability and 465 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: big moments to make plays where you get a swing 466 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: pass on third and five and break a tackle and 467 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: get six and a half. That's just sort of like 468 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 2: the things that that just end up with wins. And 469 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 2: so I came away impressed with with Noah Kane in 470 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: that regard. He's not Clyde Edwards Hilaire. But yeah, I 471 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 2: think Sean Clifford, after a bad first half, bounced back 472 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: nicely and was patient and lot let Johan Dotson somehow 473 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 2: mysteriously get open behind. Yeah, let the. 474 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,199 Speaker 1: Best receiver, one of the best receivers in all of 475 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: college football, just scamper. 476 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, open down the middle of the field, and Penn 477 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 2: State gave Wisconsin an opening to win this game. At 478 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 2: the end of the game in true James Franklin fashion. 479 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 2: You knew they would it was, and they they miss 480 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 2: an extra point to open up the win, open up 481 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 2: the window for the win, and ultimately it's Graham Mertz 482 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 2: under pressure throw over throwing a couple balls, one of 483 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 2: which ended in the games interception for Penn State. So 484 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 2: a clunker for sure for both teams. Somebody had to win. 485 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 2: And you know what, Penn State off on the on 486 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 2: the right foot because starting your season at Camp Randall brutal. 487 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't care what the Wisconsin offense 488 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 2: looks like. Yeah, tough, tall task, get out of there 489 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 2: with a w What one of the members of the 490 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 2: show said, Penn State in the under. That's it, Pen State, 491 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 2: Penn State in the under. 492 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Now look, I I echo everything you said. I 493 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 1: am very curious to watch Sean Clifford. You know I'm 494 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 1: not a Clifford fan. I thought You're stateman was one 495 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: hundred percent right. He came out second half. He did 496 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: show more patience. They definitely switched up the game plan. 497 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: That adjustment went a long way. He still misses too 498 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: many throws. Though he still misses too many throws. If 499 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: he connected with Dotson on one really long one that 500 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: went for a game breaking touchdown, there were maybe two 501 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: or three more out there, and he just he needs 502 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: to I don't know if he was amped up or what. 503 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. If it's just as game, I lean 504 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: the ladder, but sure I'll remain patient with the kid 505 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 1: in this new system. If he connects on a few 506 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: of those other long, long balls that are out there, 507 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: it's a different story that the game is much more 508 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: in Penn State's direction because Wisconsin again did not change 509 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: a damn thing. I'd imagine that's very frustrating for Badger 510 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: fans on the backside of that game. But sixteen to 511 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: ten is your final. Not a lot of offense. For 512 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: a while, sixteen to ten looked like a pipe dream 513 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: because in the first half it was just brutal offensively, 514 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 1: absolutely rule. 515 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 2: The good news is they at least get ball State 516 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 2: to get a little bit more comfortable rhythmically before Auburn. 517 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 2: I don't know what to expect out of Auburn, but 518 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 2: that game's at home, and you know, I think right now, 519 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: if you're a Penn State fan, I think more so 520 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 2: you're circling that Iowa game before the bye week than Auburn. Okay, 521 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 2: but you know you can't overlook Auburn. 522 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,360 Speaker 1: Of course, Let's go out West. Let's go to Ucla. 523 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: LSU thirty eight to twenty seven. LSU a statement win here, 524 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: Dan no, no, UCLA statement wins. So yeah, UCLA A 525 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: statement went. Excuse me, see I'm you it's muscle memory 526 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: to just say the SEC team. Sure, And here we 527 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 1: are with UCLA, I think very much looking the part. 528 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: We said it after Week one against Tawhy that they 529 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: looked really physical. They seemed like they were just humming 530 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: on a different frequency than some of the other teams 531 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: that we had seen, and again that was the case 532 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: here in week one. LSU's had to overcome a lot 533 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: in the last week, and we saw the Chip Kelly 534 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: mention that in some of his postgame comments when he 535 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: was down on the field, just kind of calling out 536 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,239 Speaker 1: that LST's had a really rough go of it here 537 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: with Hurricane Ida. But that being said, like UCLA looks physical, Dan, 538 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: the running game looks legit with Charbonney and Britain Brown, yep. 539 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 1: I thought defensively they played really well, which is not 540 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: something I'm all that use to seeing from very strong Yeah. Yeah, 541 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 1: I just I keep coming back to the physicality because 542 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: I just don't remember UCLA team in recent memory, and 543 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think back to some of Chip's Oregon 544 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: teams if they kind of gave off the same vibes 545 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 1: where they were just hard runners, played really physical at 546 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: the point of attack. But this is a different UCLA 547 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: squad for sure, and two no, two ways about. I 548 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: don't care if they end up with four losses this year. 549 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: This is not the easiest schedule. This is a different 550 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: UCLA squad. And if you're a Bruins fan, you got 551 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: to be thrilled with what you've seen through two games. 552 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of it's the closing too, right. They 553 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,479 Speaker 2: were there last year against teams like USC and Oregon 554 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 2: and Stanford, and that Oregon game was with a backup quarterback. 555 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: So they were competitive last year. They made plays last year. 556 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: They developed guys everywhere on the field last year, but 557 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 2: they weren't closers. They just were not closers last year. 558 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 2: And this year they have taken that step up. I mean, 559 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 2: we saw that depth chart where they were starting all 560 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 2: seniors on defense. They're starting full grown men. They're starting 561 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 2: twenty one year olds, twenty two year olds on defense, 562 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 2: and it shows. It shows with their ability to overwhelm 563 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 2: LSU's offensive line and make Max Johnson for large swaths 564 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 2: of that game pretty uncomfortable. The LSU rushing attack was 565 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 2: nowhere to be seen. Pretty much LSU's speed on offense 566 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 2: at receiver was obvious. Kashan Butte is one of the 567 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 2: best receivers in the country and is going to get 568 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 2: his against everybody. But all things considered, UCLA did a 569 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 2: pretty good job. We saw that Max Johnson pick which 570 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 2: was pretty ugly, and the referee pick if you remember, 571 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 2: for a touchdown that was fantastic of his execution that 572 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 2: was great, But no UCLA on both sides of the ball. 573 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: I'm still pretty concerned about dtr in terms of like 574 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 2: is he a ten win quarterback? 575 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: But he looked better this week. He looked better. 576 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 2: There were still moments where you're like, what is the 577 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 2: plane here? He looks lost in the pocket, but also 578 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: made place also definitively made plays. But at the same 579 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 2: time I also wonder like, is he the best pure 580 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: thrower on this UCLA roster? I don't know. Don't somebody 581 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 2: smarter and that practice would know better than I. But 582 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 2: it's it's a nitpick because Zach Charbonnay looks like a 583 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 2: Heisman caliber running back right now, both on the ground 584 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 2: and through the air. He was making plays and separating 585 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 2: himself and breaking tackles, which is the other story of this. 586 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 2: It's that LSU's defense still has a ways to go 587 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 2: at probably everywhere but corner. You know, Eli Rix and 588 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 2: Derek Stingley are extremely strong. But this is a team 589 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 2: that struggled reading lanes, struggled tackling in the open field, 590 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 2: struggled communicating, and struggled with what we think is going 591 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 2: to be a very good UCLA offense. But they have 592 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 2: other good offenses ahead of them on their schedule, and 593 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 2: it's appearing to be and it's week one, it is 594 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 2: week one, but it is appearing to be a not 595 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,959 Speaker 2: fully fixed issue from twenty twenty. 596 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: Well, And I was going to come back to that 597 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: for a second, because so much of the build up 598 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: to this game centered around the fact that LC was 599 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: really bad against the run last year. Remember we talked 600 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: about it, and how much do you really put stock 601 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: in that, given that they had a coordinator that didn't 602 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: work out. 603 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 2: It was a weird year. 604 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: They got rid of them, they're kind of starting over, 605 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. We weren't as worried about that. They 606 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: were pretty bad in the passing game too. They gave 607 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: up a lot of big plays through the air in 608 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: this one. So defense is going to be a work 609 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: in progress and Lord knows what the kind of offense 610 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: that they're going to be up against in the SEC West. 611 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: That is something they're going to need to figure out. 612 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: Because if they're going to go up against better defenses 613 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: in UCLA, of which there are several in the West, 614 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: and in UCLA can shut down the running game better 615 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: damn well, believe Alabama better damn well believe A and 616 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: M somebody else is going to find a way to 617 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: shut down that running attack and find a way to 618 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: put it all on Max Johnson, and he can only 619 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: do so much. 620 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 2: He needs a lot of people are going to figure 621 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: that out. Yeah, because UCLA has a good front. They have, 622 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 2: They've developed into good players, but I don't think their 623 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 2: ceiling is where Alabama's. 624 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: Oh come on. 625 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 2: Even Mississippi States or a like, it's just not there. 626 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 2: So no, yeah, I think the takeaway to me right 627 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 2: now is UCLA just because of their ability to pop 628 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 2: in a conference that is appearing to be in kind 629 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 2: of shambles in terms of high level teams. We want 630 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 2: absolutely week one week one, but one of those power 631 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: teams appeared to lose to Montana appeared to appeared too, 632 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 2: So that's that's an issue all right, no UCLA and 633 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 2: the job Chip Kelly has done in the patients, And 634 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 2: I mean I kept thinking about this and I tweeted 635 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 2: it out from the solid verbal account. What did Michigan 636 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 2: do to lose Zach Sharbon? What did Is it just 637 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 2: Harbaugh's personality rubbing everybody the wrong way? Is it just 638 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: the quarterback situation? Is it just the offensive stagnation issues 639 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 2: that Michigan's had, Because I mean, he ran wild against 640 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: Notre Dame a couple of years ago, right with Hasan Haskins, 641 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 2: So he was a known commodity. I know he's from 642 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 2: southern California, but holy hell, in terms of guys who 643 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 2: have popped in this first like one and a half 644 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 2: weeks of the season, he's right up there. 645 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: All right, let's stay with the SEC storyline a bit 646 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about Bama and then go through quickly 647 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: the other action in the SEC Alabama forty four Miami thirteen. 648 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: This was a bloodbath Dan from the very jump. I 649 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: don't know if we have a cross between a crock 650 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,719 Speaker 1: potting and a flash fry, but this was sort of 651 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,719 Speaker 1: that hybrid, right, This was kind of in between. This 652 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: felt like it was over before it started. I watched it, 653 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: it was like ten to nothing. After the first quarter. 654 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 2: I would say it was seventeen nothing if you took 655 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 2: a long p That's what it was. 656 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: It just it got away from Miami in a hurry. 657 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: My first impression of Bryce Young, new starting quarterback for Alabama, 658 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: and a lot's been written about him, right, got the 659 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: big nil nil deal. Excuse me? Is it worth it? 660 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: Is it not worth it? I think I am on 661 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: the record saying, well, you know, with some of their 662 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: turnover across the board, it's gonna be a problem. That's 663 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: why I like Georgia. Bryce Young is gonna be a 664 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: problem this year for a lot. It's gonna be a 665 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: problem the next two years at least. He is gonna 666 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: be a real problem. I don't know. I don't know 667 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: what the analog is for him, but he's just always 668 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: sort of moving. He's very tough to square up. He 669 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,239 Speaker 1: seems incredibly comfortable whether he's in the pocket or on 670 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: the run. He makes good throws. He's the first Alabama 671 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: quarterback to throw for four touchdowns in his very first start, 672 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: finished with three p forty four through the air. There 673 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: were no answers for Bryce Young. My guess is throughout 674 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: the course of the season there won't be many coming 675 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: from any other team in college football. He was absolutely 676 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: superb Alabama. Across the board was Alabama, as we would expect. 677 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: They were just no match for anybody. Nobody could hold 678 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: a candle to them. There were moments early in the 679 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: game where he thought, Okay, Miami, maybe this, maybe they 680 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: can use this to get something together. But there was 681 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: just no hope. There was no hope from the very beginning. 682 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: It got away in a hurry, as he said, the 683 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: long pe and they were down seventeen to nothing. 684 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I came away impressed. I mean, obviously this defense 685 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: is going to be special. Lay lose. I think it's 686 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 2: Chris Allen, which could be a big blow to the defense. 687 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 2: But Will Anderson coming into the season was a known 688 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 2: excellent commodity, looked excellent against Miami and what to beat Alabama? 689 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: You have to come out with such a clear plan 690 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 2: that works and that doesn't turn the ball back to 691 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 2: doesn't turn the ball over and doesn't give the ball 692 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 2: back to Alabama quickly. That's the only way to beat 693 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 2: this modern iteration of Alabama is the ability to hang 694 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: onto the ball and to generate big plays and to 695 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: hang in early, to not let the game get away 696 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 2: from you early. And Miami just isn't that team, at 697 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 2: least not right now. But I don't believe they're that 698 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 2: team period. And I like Derrick King, I like some 699 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 2: of the guys on defense. Bubba Bolden leaves the game, 700 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: he's kicked out of the game for targeting at the 701 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 2: end of the first quarter. That was a major blow 702 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 2: because he is that high level guy for that defense. 703 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 2: But it was just a Miami team that And Alabama 704 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 2: makes a lot of teams look at but they look sloppy. 705 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 2: They looked undisciplined, you know, the penalties, the inability up 706 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 2: front along the offensive line to give Dearic King time. 707 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: And then Alabama about Bryce Young, And I'm positive we're 708 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 2: going to get a quote about Bryce Young from Bryce 709 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 2: Young after this season saying, you know, I didn't really 710 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 2: fully know the playbook. I didn't really full you know, 711 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 2: I was just trying to like make plays. And he's 712 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 2: going to make plays year long. 713 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: Here's the thing about him, though, And you see this 714 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 1: a lot because the quarterback position in college football and 715 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,399 Speaker 1: pro football has changed dramatically. Sure, it's very it's gone 716 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: very hard in the direction of the mobile quarterback who 717 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: can throw and you could have them do urpo stuff 718 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: and whatnot. He doesn't seem chaotic. No, he's doing it. 719 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: He's very and it could be because the talent in 720 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,919 Speaker 1: front of him is a brick wall. I don't know. 721 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: My sense is that's not why he's just good. He's calm, 722 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: he's Miami's a real team. Now, Miami's gonna be a 723 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: real ass team. They're a top fifteen, top twenty team. 724 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: He was just so cool, calm and collected. Outside the pocket. 725 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: The feet were constantly moving, and he just he can't 726 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: square him up. He's always got his eyes downfield, and 727 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 1: he's just I don't Maybe Baker's a wrong comparison. I 728 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: saw a little bit of Kyler Murray, but Kyler Murray 729 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: was just more of a jitterbug back there. Like he's 730 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 1: kind of a cross between a bunch of the quarterbacks 731 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 1: we've seen recently who have gone on to great things. 732 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: But to have a guy like this at Alabama now, 733 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: it's just like, can't they get a subpar quarterback for once, 734 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: just to keep it close for everybody else? 735 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 2: Sure, even Blake Sims lit it up a few years ago, 736 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,439 Speaker 2: so it's just I don't know, right, Yeah, the thing 737 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 2: with any new starting quarterback is against their first start 738 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 2: against a decent, too good team. I think the only 739 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 2: thing a realistic fan and a realistic coaching staff wants 740 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 2: to see comfort and confidence. Comfort and confidence, you know, 741 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 2: that poise, whatever phrasing you want to use for it. 742 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: But it's comfort and confidence and a mistake free out 743 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 2: on outing. So Bryce Young obviously shows that and he 744 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 2: buys himself time and you know, hits the the Ohio 745 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 2: State transfer in Jamison Williams down the sideline and when 746 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 2: they're backed up against their own ends, I don't think 747 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 2: it was a ninety four yard touchdown, but slain Slade 748 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 2: Bolden got involved, like there was just there were guys 749 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 2: that he that Bryce Young just found. And obviously the 750 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 2: line is good. The running backs are gonna thought. Brian 751 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 2: Robinson was pretty good, Trey sand like, there were good dudes. 752 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 2: You know. Jace McClellan, I believe is his name, made 753 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 2: some plays and so there's no high end obvious guy 754 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 2: right now on that offense. You know, John Metchi kind 755 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 2: of disappeared for stretches, but it doesn't matter right now, 756 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 2: and somebody's going to emerge or somebodies are going to emerge, 757 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 2: and that's that. That's that. I mean, I don't know 758 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 2: how much we can more we can go on about Alabama, 759 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 2: don't think anymore, but yeah, they are who we always 760 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 2: think they. 761 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: Are, all right, So let's stay with the sec I'm 762 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 1: gonna rifle through some scores, Dan, and then we can 763 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: circle back and talk about any impressions that we had. 764 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 1: Alabama plays in two weeks against the Florida Gators, who 765 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: won thirty five to fourteen over FAU. We also had 766 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 1: Texas A and M winning with their new quarterback Haines 767 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: King forty one to ten over Kent State. Elsewhere in 768 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 1: the West, we had Arkansas thirty eight to seventeen over Rice. 769 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: That one was kind of a nail biter, at least 770 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: for the first half. Mississippi State, speaking of nail biers, 771 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 1: needed to rip off thirty four straight points to grab 772 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: or no, excuse me, they needed to the Mississippi State 773 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: needed to score twenty one straight points yea in the 774 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, yeah, in the fourth quarter to negate the 775 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: thirty four straight points that had been scored by Louisiana 776 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: Tach Austin Kendall, Austin Knack. We had Auburn winning by 777 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: fifty over Akron. Now on the west side, why don't 778 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 1: we keep it there? Dan in the West. Any impressions 779 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: by what you saw from be it Haines King or 780 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: your your squad in Mississippi State. I wrote down that 781 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: Akron was so bad that Bo Nixon missed two passes. 782 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: Any impressions of the SEC West. 783 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 2: No, I guess when you're clunkers, that Mississippi State needed 784 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 2: to score what it scored. And we'll see. Maybe Louisiana 785 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 2: TACH under future Notre Dame head coach Skip Holtz is 786 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 2: a good team. They're fine last year, but Mississippi State 787 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,760 Speaker 2: should have more comfortably won that game. A nice balanced attack. 788 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,320 Speaker 2: You know, Jamior Calvin, the transfer from Wazoo made plays, 789 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 2: and of course Jayden we made plays as well. But yeah, 790 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 2: sluggish fits and starts kind of thing. And hopefully it's 791 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 2: just a week one thing. But yeah, not nothing you 792 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 2: like to see. If you're somebody like this guy and 793 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 2: me that would love for Mississippi State to take a 794 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,959 Speaker 2: step forward and prove him correct for the tough season. 795 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 2: Analysis yeah. 796 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Florida quarterback thing. I mentioned Florida right at 797 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: the top. 798 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:48,720 Speaker 2: That's interesting. 799 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Florida quarterback thing is going to be interesting 800 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,479 Speaker 1: because Emery Jones was the starter and it did most 801 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: of the work with his legs, did not look sharp 802 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: throwing the football, and they brought in Anthony Richardson, who 803 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: Dan Mullen insists is just the backup, but he's a 804 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 1: hometown kid. Had seven rushing attempts for one hundred and 805 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: sixty yards in a touchdown. Keep your eyes on this. 806 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: We may have a backup better than the starter type 807 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: of situation than brewing in Gainesville. And they're going to 808 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: have to get it sorted out pretty quickly. As I said, 809 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: they do have Alabama in two weeks from today, so 810 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 1: more to come on that Florida offensive situation. Let's say he. 811 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 2: Electric Richardson is a really good really I mean it's 812 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 2: that fau but he is, yeah, someone to watch. 813 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 1: Elsewhere in the East, we had Kentucky will the thrill 814 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: Levis Dan huh. 815 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 2: Well Liam Cohen as well coming Yeah, yeah, new offensive coordinator. Yeah, 816 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 2: there was a balanced attack, Wandale Robinson getting in on 817 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 2: the Acton Dale. 818 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: Is going to be a problem. He's going to be. 819 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: They look good, they look good, but it was it 820 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,839 Speaker 1: was Monroe. Monroe's Monroe's bad. Monroe's going to be pretty bad. 821 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: But a team should do this. Decent team should do this. 822 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 1: A decent offense should do this against Monroe. If you're Kentucky, 823 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: if you're Kentucky and you're coming from an era in 824 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 1: which it was mostly defense, and whatever we can do 825 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 1: with whatever quarterback we have and a really good running back. 826 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 2: Please Benny Snell, throw everything on your back. Yeah, run 827 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 2: eighty times a game. 828 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 1: If you are that Kentucky fan, you felt pretty good 829 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 1: by what you saw. This is this is a reason 830 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: to be optimistic. 831 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:24,439 Speaker 4: Uh. 832 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 1: Tennessee wan by thirty two. Joe Milton m okay Green's terrible. 833 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:36,280 Speaker 1: Tennessee rushed for three twenty six rend team, which was nice. 834 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 1: We had Missouri. 835 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 2: In Central Michigan. 836 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,720 Speaker 1: They ran well, They ran ran well, one for eleven 837 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:48,240 Speaker 1: on the third downs with that without Tyler Batty, I 838 00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: don't know which direction is. 839 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,399 Speaker 2: Eighty but d I don't know. Yeah, uh, defense, it's 840 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 2: a new defense, new coordinator. Looked out of place a 841 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 2: little bit in the in the I mean, I just 842 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 2: scrubbed through this one quickly. But I think Missou will 843 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 2: be fine. I think they'll be all right. 844 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: We had four touchdowns for zeb Noland, Yes, forty six 845 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,959 Speaker 1: to nil over Eastern Illinois as South Carolina wins game 846 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: one under the Sheen Beamer era and then to close 847 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:19,399 Speaker 1: it out Eastern Tennessee State, East Tennessee State, some other 848 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: Tennessee school twenty three to three over Vanderbilt and clark 849 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: Lee rough go in his first game. 850 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Ken Shales Honda not getting it done for Vandy. 851 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, look, you gotta give you gotta give Clarklee time. 852 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 2: You gotta give him time. But do they they didn't 853 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 2: score a touchdown, did they? What was the final score? 854 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: Twenty three to three? 855 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:42,560 Speaker 2: Twenty three to three. Yeah, that's not a great way. 856 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 1: Let's move over quickly to the acc. There is a 857 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,959 Speaker 1: big game that took place on Friday night. Virginia Tech 858 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: seventeen North Carolina ten Dan. So listen, Yeah, I narrowly 859 00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:00,040 Speaker 1: escaped having to eat the banana. 860 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 2: Because he because Brax and Burmeister, who you thought was 861 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 2: Max Bortenschlager through an interception, That. 862 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 1: Is correct, that's the skin of your teeth. Yeah, that 863 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:09,359 Speaker 1: That is really the only reason why I thought he 864 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 1: was actually pretty good in this game. He didn't rise 865 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:16,239 Speaker 1: to the level of half quote unquote shine that we 866 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 1: had to find, I guess on the preview show. But 867 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: all things considered, man for as much shade as I 868 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: was thrown at him, perhaps because I thought he was 869 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: somebody else, he looked the part in the first He 870 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,280 Speaker 1: looked good. He looked really good to start. They jumped 871 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 1: out to a fourteen to nothing lead at half. Then 872 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: they sort of went into cruise control. 873 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 2: Sam Howe. 874 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 1: I feel for Sam how I don't know where Sam 875 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 1: Howe ranks in terms of pro prospects this coming NFL 876 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 1: draft from the twenty twenty two class. My guess is 877 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: he'll be one of, if not the top quarterback, top 878 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,879 Speaker 1: quarterbacks off the board. He's very good. I did get 879 00:43:55,920 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: some notes of it's all on Sam how this year. Yeah, 880 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 1: and that worries me because he had great production in 881 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: two running basket drafted into the league. He had two 882 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 1: wide receivers get drafted into the league. Without that, it's 883 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: a bit unclear as to where the support system is. 884 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 1: So he he was trying to do a lot of 885 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: this on his own. He ended up getting sacked six times. 886 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 2: He three to three six, doing it on his own 887 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,840 Speaker 2: behind a not great offensive line. 888 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: No, so you know that being what it is on 889 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 1: the North Carolina side, they do have some stuff to 890 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 1: work out. This is a huge freaking win for Justin Fuente. Yeah, 891 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 1: this is a big deal for him. Man. We were 892 00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: talking about perhaps this being the year he gets canned. 893 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 1: North Carolina was ranked what tenth going into this game, 894 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: which clearly what. 895 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 2: I mean high. It doesn't mean anything, it's it's preseason, 896 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 2: but yeah, you're right. 897 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 1: A huge win in blacksburd on a Friday night. I 898 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 1: don't know where it goes from here on out for 899 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,440 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech, but I thought their defense will pretty good. 900 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 1: Defense was an issue last year. Defense they played pretty 901 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 1: well on you know, all that and pretty much all 902 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: facets of the game there. So Virginia Tech seventeen to ten. 903 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 1: Not a high scoring affair, but just enough to get 904 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:15,719 Speaker 1: the job done. Win your clunkers. They beat a ranked 905 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 1: team at home, So good start to the season for Fluente. 906 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. They scored their second touchdown a little bit before 907 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 2: the half and then it was three points from that 908 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 2: point on. Really playing slow and milking clock, which I hate, 909 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 2: which I hate, no, because there is this look you're 910 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:33,319 Speaker 2: playing to win, obviously, but like there needs to be 911 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 2: a certain amount of aggression, There needs to be a 912 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,719 Speaker 2: certain amount of creativity, especially since North Carolina and look, 913 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 2: they win the game. So this is all like just 914 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 2: take it with a grand salt. But they win the game. 915 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 2: North Carolina is an alleged conference power, and so it's 916 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 2: a great start. I thought the defense was quite impressive, 917 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 2: but I still don't know how they score thirty five 918 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 2: points when they need to. I just I don't actually 919 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 2: see it. They didn't run the ball that well. But 920 00:45:56,560 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 2: look they win this game. Crazy impressive from Virginia Tech. Amazing, 921 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 2: amazing Tie to see enter Samman with that full crowd. 922 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's great to have the fans back. 923 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 2: Great to have the fans back, says Tie in North Carolina. 924 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,839 Speaker 2: This is where one game, one game, but ten points 925 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:19,240 Speaker 2: against Virginia Tech granted on the road and big emotional spot. 926 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 2: Do we start having an inheritance tax situation about what 927 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 2: about what mac Brown had coming in and what he 928 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 2: now has Now, that's an inheritance tax by the universe, 929 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 2: the college football gods, because that the offensive skill wasn't there, 930 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 2: that the offensive line wasn't there one game. It's concerning. 931 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 2: It's concerning, and recruiting has been great, and I thought 932 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 2: that North Carolina defense made a good amount of plays. 933 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 2: But concerning that, this is the type of offense you 934 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 2: want to run, and there aren't three and a half 935 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 2: guys outside of Sam Howell necessarily that can consistently get 936 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 2: it done. 937 00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: It'll make for some fun stat lines for Sam Howe 938 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 1: this year. It'll all be on Sam Howe. 939 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 2: I mean, could this be a Nick Folesey in eight 940 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 2: and four, four hundred and eighty three yards and five 941 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 2: touchdowns and up? Yeah, it could be a lot of 942 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,359 Speaker 2: Sam how A using effort. He's a candidate, all right. 943 00:47:16,719 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 2: I'm still relatively high on North Carolina to be clear. 944 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 2: The ACC is a you can win a lot of 945 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:22,800 Speaker 2: games in the twenty twenty one aces. 946 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,439 Speaker 1: Well, let's go through that and let's discuss why. I'll 947 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 1: rifle through all of the other action in the ACC. 948 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:32,800 Speaker 1: Boston College fifty one nil over Colegate. We had Pitt 949 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 1: also with fifty one points, fifty one to seven over 950 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:39,839 Speaker 1: U Mass NC State forty five to nothing over USF 951 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 1: Wake Forest forty two to ten over Old Dominion. Old 952 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: Dominion's first game under Ricky Ronnie even though he was 953 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 1: hired over a year ago. Syracuse wins by twenty over Ohio. 954 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 1: UVA knocks off Bill and Mary by a forty three 955 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 1: to nil score. Now we had two other games. We 956 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: had Charlotte thirty one twenty eight. It was Charlotte's first 957 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:06,719 Speaker 1: win over a Power five opponent, and we also had Yeah, 958 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 1: Northern Illinois twenty two to twenty one over Georgia Tech 959 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: Rocky Lombardi on the road. Dan Listen Huskies. Huskies could 960 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:18,720 Speaker 1: have tied. 961 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,239 Speaker 2: It, and Tommy Hammock, Yeah, could have tied it in 962 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, but that's not how big. 963 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,359 Speaker 1: Tom Hammock rolls now went for two, got the win 964 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 1: on the road. Not a great loss for Georgia Tech, 965 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:32,879 Speaker 1: given the fact that their schedule is. 966 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,720 Speaker 2: Brutal, agree is brutal. 967 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: We talked maybe like four weeks ago about how NIU 968 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:45,280 Speaker 1: perhaps is going eh for those of you not watching, 969 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm motioning down in like a forty five de credent. 970 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 2: Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. 971 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,799 Speaker 1: But this was This was not the way to start 972 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 1: the season, especially given the road that Tech has ahead brutal. 973 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 2: And especially given Jeff Simms left injured. He wasn't good 974 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,040 Speaker 2: when he was in there. No, he did leave that 975 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 2: game injured, and the Tech offense sort of went along 976 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:10,799 Speaker 2: that same route. Yeah, I mean, look, wah, Pittsburgh kills you, Mass, 977 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 2: Boston College kills Colgate You. You sort of destroy the 978 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:14,280 Speaker 2: teams you should destroy. 979 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 4: Duke. 980 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,160 Speaker 2: I just feel bad for what's Matteo Durant. Yeah, the 981 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 2: running back who is just he should be playing. He 982 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:22,680 Speaker 2: should be the next Zach Charbonay. He should be playing 983 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 2: for a team that rides him to wins all the time, 984 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 2: and he's just not. And Syracuse ran the ball, ran 985 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 2: the hell out of the ball against Ohio. We'll see 986 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 2: what that actually means, but that's something Syracuse needed to 987 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:37,319 Speaker 2: win that game, and they did. 988 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,359 Speaker 1: They did. Okay, let's go over the Big twelve, Dan, 989 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: I've got yeah, no fewer than four five games that 990 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: were really interesting to follow. In the Big twelve. We will, 991 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: of course, start on the top line with Oklahoma forty 992 00:49:56,640 --> 00:50:00,120 Speaker 1: to Lane thirty five. Now, keep in mind this this 993 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 1: is a game that was moved to Norman due to 994 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 1: Hurricane Item. Yeah, very much an LSU ish type of 995 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 1: situation for the Green Wave having to play this one 996 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,799 Speaker 1: in Norman or just basically be away from home more 997 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:16,359 Speaker 1: than they wanted to. It got interesting down the stretch here. 998 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:20,839 Speaker 1: Oklahoma led thirty seven to fourteen at half, and then 999 00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 1: they sort of went into cruise control. I have a 1000 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 1: quote here from Lincoln Riley, quote the second half. I 1001 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 1: think clearly our team felt like the game. 1002 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 2: Was over end quote right. 1003 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: So what happens. Tulane pulls it to within five late 1004 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:39,919 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. They recover an on side kick, 1005 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: so they had a shot in this game. And Michael Pratt, 1006 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:44,839 Speaker 1: who when I did the preview of Tulane, I freaking 1007 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: love Michael Pratt had a monster game at quarterback. Two 1008 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 1: ninety three to three touchdowns, thirty four rushing yards, one touchdown, 1009 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 1: comes up about a yard short on a fourth and 1010 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: long play with one fifty five left that turned it 1011 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 1: back over to Oklahoma. It stealed the deal. But they 1012 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,839 Speaker 1: were in this one late. They had a chance late. 1013 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what it really says about Oklahoma, to 1014 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 1: be honest with you, I think what Lincoln Riley said 1015 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:12,760 Speaker 1: is accurate, because Oklahoma looked good. Spencer Rattler looked fine. 1016 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 1: I mean, everything was hummon. It just seems like after half, 1017 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: when they had that big lead, they kind of went 1018 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: into a shell. And Tulane was not. Tulane's a good 1019 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 1: team with. 1020 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 2: Chip Loong right, Chiplong running the offense right. 1021 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 1: Tulane was not willing to let this thing die, and 1022 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 1: so they came back. They made it a game. They 1023 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,399 Speaker 1: forced Oklahoma's hand. Oklahoma had three points in the second half. 1024 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 1: So a good showing, I thought, for Tulane in the 1025 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 1: second half, a really good showing for Oklahoma in the first. 1026 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 2: Disappointing for Spencer Rattler. Some of those throws just a 1027 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 2: very much Week one performance from him, coming in with 1028 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 2: the sort of attention rightfully so that he was getting. 1029 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, look, Oklahoma won their clunker, they survived. 1030 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 2: The second half was for sure disappointing. And I don't 1031 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 2: know if it's because of how thin they are running 1032 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:01,359 Speaker 2: back right now that they were trying to just sort 1033 00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:06,760 Speaker 2: of milk everything. But yeah, Big twelve opening, Big twelve teams, 1034 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 2: Opening week for Big twelve teams. A lot of Big 1035 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,280 Speaker 2: twelve teams just has been odd lately, well real weird. 1036 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,360 Speaker 2: You know, the Sunbell losses last year with you know, 1037 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 2: Kansas and Iowa State and Kansas State just just strange things. 1038 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: I think Iowa State, let's go to Iowa State next, 1039 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 1: sixteen to ten over Northern Iowa. I don't know what 1040 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: it is with Iowa State and these openers, but all 1041 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 1: the scoring was in the first half here save for 1042 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 1: a field goal by Iowa State late to make it 1043 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:35,040 Speaker 1: sixteen to ten. 1044 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:35,839 Speaker 2: Uh huh. 1045 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 1: It wasn't a turnover thing, it wasn't a penalty thing 1046 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,960 Speaker 1: for Iowa State. They just could not get anything going. 1047 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 1: If you've looked at the drive chart, and you probably have, 1048 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 1: it was a mess. Couple three and outs, a couple 1049 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 1: other five and outs like they just it wasn't a 1050 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: good showing offense if you would like to be specific. 1051 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:59,879 Speaker 5: Punt, punt, punt, punt, touchdown, field goal, punt, touchdown, field 1052 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:04,480 Speaker 5: end up, half punt, punt, punt, interception, punt, punk, field goal, interception, punt, 1053 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 5: ends of game. 1054 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 2: It was Pitcher's duel of sorts. 1055 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 1: Pitcher's dual of sorts. They're gonna need to get this 1056 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 1: offense figured out before the Syhawk game next weekend because Iowa, 1057 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 1: who we will talk about in time here looked very good, 1058 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: look very good. 1059 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, I always state trying to play small ball to 1060 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 2: their ten wins in their goal. 1061 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, Texas thirty eight Louisiana eighteen. I watched all of 1062 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 1: this game because I had convinced myself that Louisiana had 1063 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 1: a chance. 1064 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:41,880 Speaker 2: Okay Louisiana. 1065 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:45,880 Speaker 1: Louisiana looked overmatched in this game, and they did not 1066 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: have any answer for Bijon Robinson. To their credit, nobody 1067 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 1: has an answer for Beijon Robinson. If they had given 1068 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,640 Speaker 1: Bijon Robinson the ball last year, Tom Herman would still 1069 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 1: be coaching this year. But that is water under the 1070 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 1: bridge at this point. He goes for one oh three 1071 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,759 Speaker 1: and a touchdown. As a receiver, he had seventy three 1072 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 1: more yards and a touchdown as well, So he's a 1073 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: real problem. We knew that going in. I thought Hudson 1074 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:14,359 Speaker 1: card looked really good, really comfortable. This is a good 1075 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 1: Louisiana team. There's a good Louisiana team. They don't have 1076 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:19,520 Speaker 1: the talent of Texas. There are a whole lot of 1077 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,799 Speaker 1: teams that do. But this is a team that was 1078 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 1: a very interesting Week one test, and I thought Texas 1079 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,879 Speaker 1: under Sarkesian it took him a little bit to get going, 1080 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,760 Speaker 1: but it never felt like it was flailing out of control. 1081 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: It always felt like they had a pretty good handle 1082 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:35,319 Speaker 1: on it. The play calling seemed like it was it 1083 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 1: was really thoughtful. They weren't taking chances. Hudson card again 1084 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,320 Speaker 1: just look the part to me. So I came away 1085 00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 1: very impressed by what I saw in Week one, and 1086 00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: that's not just from an eternity now of talking up 1087 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,359 Speaker 1: Louisiana Texas. I thought, genuinely, if you watched that game 1088 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 1: and didn't know a thing about either team, you would 1089 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 1: say they were clearly far and away the better, more stable, 1090 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 1: more consistent team on the field. 1091 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:00,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I still think offensively they they need to improve 1092 00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 2: along the line. They need to improve in terms of 1093 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,959 Speaker 2: finding playmakers on the outside. You know, I thought Jordan 1094 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 2: Whittingham did a nice job, but like it was a 1095 00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 2: catch for I think it was Xavier Worthy, the California 1096 00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 2: freshman at receiver, but not a lot of rhythm, not 1097 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 2: a lot of downfield, and that I think is a product. Also, 1098 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,799 Speaker 2: Louisiana's pass defense is quite good, and so it was 1099 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 2: you know, finding Roshawn Johnson out of the backfield. There's 1100 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 2: a lot of passes to running backs. You know, we 1101 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,799 Speaker 2: saw the touchdown on the play that Naji Harris just 1102 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,840 Speaker 2: destroyed teams with where like one side of the field 1103 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:32,759 Speaker 2: is you know, the receivers are lined up on you know, 1104 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:34,200 Speaker 2: the left hand side, and they clear it out and 1105 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 2: then Naji Harris sort of spills out to that side. 1106 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:40,280 Speaker 2: Jon Robinson ran that play to great effect for Texas 1107 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 2: yesterday and that was the touchdown catch for him. And yeah, 1108 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 2: Hudson card again well echoing what we said about Bryce Young. 1109 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:51,800 Speaker 2: Comfortable and confident, and I was also pretty impressed with 1110 00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:55,280 Speaker 2: what the Texas linebackers look like, what Pete Kwakowski's defense 1111 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,239 Speaker 2: is trying to do, which is what Washington's defense these 1112 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:01,160 Speaker 2: past few years, which is, you know, keep everything in front, 1113 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,480 Speaker 2: keep those two big safeties back, and sort of trust 1114 00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 2: the defense to tackle in the open field, which they 1115 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,120 Speaker 2: still need to improve doing that was the issue last year. 1116 00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:13,440 Speaker 2: But in terms of trends, in terms of trajectory, an 1117 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 2: impressive start to win that game by twenty points heading 1118 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 2: into the matchup. It's Arkansas next week, correct, yep, yep. 1119 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 2: Good place. They're in a good place with I think 1120 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:23,880 Speaker 2: obvious work to do. 1121 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,720 Speaker 1: K State twenty four, Stanford seven. 1122 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 2: Speaking of obvious work that needs to be done, Yeah, 1123 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:35,720 Speaker 2: Stanford looks dreadful on offense. 1124 00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, dreadful on offense. If there was a game in 1125 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: week one where seven to nothing or even fourteen to 1126 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:49,240 Speaker 1: nothing felt more out of reach for the trailing team, yeah, 1127 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what it would be, because Stanford was 1128 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,600 Speaker 1: just not in this one. They played two quarterbacks, they 1129 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 1: couldn't get anything going on the ground. Skylar Thompson was 1130 00:56:56,600 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: back for k State. He looked pretty good. Duce Vaughan 1131 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,280 Speaker 1: looked pretty good. We got the duce Vaughn his short 1132 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:08,320 Speaker 1: comment of course during the going to pop. Yeah, Skyler 1133 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 1: Thompson was definitely feeling a little sentimental to I pulled 1134 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:14,080 Speaker 1: a quote from him. There's a lot that I think 1135 00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 1: this is the first touchdown of the game. 1136 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 2: Quote. 1137 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,200 Speaker 1: There's a lot that went into that touchdown that a 1138 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 1: lot of people didn't see. A lot of time spent 1139 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: on my own in the midst of a situation that 1140 00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 1: once seemed very dark and stormy, to see the fruit 1141 00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 1: fall from the tree, to see the sun shine a 1142 00:57:30,720 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 1: little bit, and to take a deep breath. It all 1143 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 1: worked out, and everything happened for a reason. 1144 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:42,080 Speaker 2: Dan this is the dawning of the age. Good for him, 1145 00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:44,640 Speaker 2: Good for him. I'm glad he's love it. I love 1146 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 2: it that Phil Brooks look good. Malik Knowles made plays obviously, 1147 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 2: Duke Vaughan happy to see k State when and Sanford. Yeah, 1148 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 2: there's going to be a David Shaw conversation about where 1149 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 2: this program is heading long term. If they look week 1150 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 2: won on the road, we won'lock whatever. Pack twelve is 1151 00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,439 Speaker 2: in shambles at the moment. Stanford could win a bunch 1152 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:07,120 Speaker 2: of games. I don't know how they're going to win 1153 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:11,240 Speaker 2: those games though, that's the issue. Like if if Samford 1154 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 2: loses this game twenty four to twenty one, they pop 1155 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 2: some plays downfield, they ride a running back who carries 1156 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:19,479 Speaker 2: the ball thirty times in four yards of the clip, 1157 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 2: You're like, I see it, I see what Stanford is 1158 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 2: going for. Tanner McKee was accurate, but it was all 1159 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,520 Speaker 2: short stuff. They don't have a receiver who pops. They 1160 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:29,960 Speaker 2: don't have a running back who's in there thinking like, Okay, 1161 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 2: this guy can carry this team on their back. And 1162 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 2: like how Stanford beat Washington last year, where a team 1163 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 2: just can't get Stanford off the field, with what we 1164 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:41,919 Speaker 2: saw in week one, Week one one, Week one, It's 1165 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 2: just you're trying to dust off. You're trying to use 1166 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 2: like the archaeologists, you know, duster or his brush, to 1167 00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 2: be like, all right, what are we seeing here? What 1168 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 2: what evidence can we find? It's tough. It's tough for 1169 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 2: me college football indie to find it. 1170 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:01,880 Speaker 1: All right. Elsewhere in Big twelve Action, we had Texas 1171 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 1: Tech trailing at half but ripping off thirty one unanswered 1172 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 1: to win over Houston in the NRK. So nice showing 1173 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 1: for Tyler Shuck. 1174 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 2: Easy by the way, oh Man, huge game for Texas Tech. 1175 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 2: Tyler Shuck was fine. He was I'm not not fine. 1176 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 2: He was good. He was good, he was accurate. And 1177 00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 2: I thought the story of this game really was the 1178 00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,600 Speaker 2: the Texas Tech defense in the second half, just completely 1179 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:25,800 Speaker 2: clamping down. Yeah good. 1180 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:28,800 Speaker 1: Baylor won by nine over Texas State. I thought a 1181 00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,640 Speaker 1: pretty good showing on the ground for their new look 1182 00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 1: offense now under Jeff Grimes. 1183 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 2: God does not gloss over the fact that we just 1184 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 2: agreed that Texas Tech's defense was the story of this one. 1185 00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 2: That how often do we get to say things like that, 1186 00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,680 Speaker 2: It's just it's Week one week one. Let's just bathe 1187 00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 2: in this compliment. Chacoozie. That's all I'm saying. 1188 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:53,120 Speaker 1: Baylor wins by nine over Texas State. TCU beat Decayane 1189 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 1: so badly they decided after half to only play twelve 1190 00:59:55,720 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 1: minute quarters. That's a real headline. Kansas led Jason Bean. 1191 01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:05,919 Speaker 1: Mister Bean rushed the field, I believe after beating South 1192 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 1: Dakota seventeen to fourteen. And we had Oklahoma State when 1193 01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,760 Speaker 1: twenty three to sixteen over Missouri State behind shaggy Shane Illingworth. Dan, 1194 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: he's back, He's back. 1195 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:23,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Oklahoma State, it's offensive line not back now to 1196 01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 2: where it was years and years ago when it was good. 1197 01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:27,800 Speaker 2: Because this is a kind of a bad unit right now. 1198 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 3: Man. 1199 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:33,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, Oklahoma State is offensively in a rough. I mean 1200 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 2: they're in the midst of this is nothing new. This 1201 01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,480 Speaker 2: is now the third straight year of offensive concern, which 1202 01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:40,200 Speaker 2: is very strange to say with the Pokes. 1203 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 1: Don't even get me started on Oklahoma State. We had 1204 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: to talk about this on Slack before we hit record. 1205 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 1: When you're clunker, but yeah, when you're clugk No, but 1206 01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 1: not just when you're clunker. What when Susan Boyle dreamt 1207 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 1: her dream in two thousand and nine, where are We Going? 1208 01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 1: She was dreaming of a world in which she could 1209 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:03,760 Speaker 1: wake up on a Saturday morning and Spencer Sanders wouldn't 1210 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:10,000 Speaker 1: be physically questionable. Every week, every week, every week there's 1211 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,120 Speaker 1: a question about Spencer Sanders. I want to see him 1212 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: healthy for just a full stretch. Now he's in COVID 1213 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:17,080 Speaker 1: protocol and I don't mean to bag in the kid, 1214 01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: but it's every week, every week it's a question of 1215 01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 1: is he going to start, won't he start? Like what's 1216 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 1: going on with Spencer Sanders. Shane Hillingworth looked pretty good 1217 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 1: for his part through over three hundred yards. He's serving 1218 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 1: in as the backup admirably. But I just it's frustrating 1219 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:36,120 Speaker 1: to me because I really want to see what Spencer 1220 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 1: Sanders can do in a full season, fully healthy, not 1221 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:42,160 Speaker 1: all his fault but tough to watch from afar. 1222 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. Did you mention West Virginia Maryland as 1223 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 2: you were rifling? 1224 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:48,280 Speaker 1: No, we're going over to the Big Ten. 1225 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 2: Okay, we'll do that the Big Ten for that one. 1226 01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 2: But by the way, Baylor ran really well Texas State sure, 1227 01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 2: and was not a convincing victory, but they ran really well. 1228 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:57,720 Speaker 2: That's the thing. 1229 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 1: Let's talk about that Maryland Virginia game. Thirty to twenty four. 1230 01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 1: Maybe the most fun I had watching a game. 1231 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 2: This was fun. 1232 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:06,760 Speaker 1: I didn't watch all of it, but yeah, this is 1233 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: a This is a fun game, a lot of back 1234 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,760 Speaker 1: and forth. If you're a West Virginia fan, you probably 1235 01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,400 Speaker 1: feel like you could have won this one because the 1236 01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:16,560 Speaker 1: defense played really well. Leeddy Brown at three touchdowns. The 1237 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 1: problem was a four turnovers and b Tealia Tongue of Vailoa. 1238 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 1: Tongue who went for three thirty two three touchdowns, had 1239 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:30,840 Speaker 1: a pair of long ones to two receivers who showed out. 1240 01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:35,720 Speaker 2: And big time recruit receivers and Dimas and rakckem Jerre. Yeah, correct, correct. 1241 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 2: I think this Maryland team's gonna be very plucky. I 1242 01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 2: love what they're trying to do. What was not clear 1243 01:02:43,280 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 2: last year was how good what the ceiling was for 1244 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:51,000 Speaker 2: Tealia Tungue Vailoa. Sure, I don't know if he's as 1245 01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 2: good as his brother. 1246 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:55,160 Speaker 1: He probably isn't, but he looked really good and he 1247 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:58,040 Speaker 1: seems very comfortable in that offense. If nothing more than 1248 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:01,120 Speaker 1: we said this when we did our pre If nothing 1249 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 1: more came of twenty twenty. The fact that Mike Loxley 1250 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,400 Speaker 1: found his quarterback was a big deal of moving into 1251 01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:09,919 Speaker 1: this twenty one season. Sure, and it looked really good, 1252 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 1: looked really good. This game is back and forth again. 1253 01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 1: If you're West Virginia, you're probably sick. You could have 1254 01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:16,840 Speaker 1: won this game. But Maryland ultimately gets the w at 1255 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:18,000 Speaker 1: home thirty to twenty. 1256 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 2: Four, and you can find, yeah, you're totally right about 1257 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 2: the West Virginia thing. Then they went away from Letty 1258 01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:26,160 Speaker 2: Brown for long stretches, which I didn't fully understand. The 1259 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:27,920 Speaker 2: strength of this Maryland defense, I think is in the 1260 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:31,040 Speaker 2: back end. They played well last year against the pass, 1261 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:33,439 Speaker 2: and I anticipate them, especially with how aggressive they looked 1262 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 2: against the years, to be a pretty good secondary and 1263 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:40,480 Speaker 2: pass defense as well. I can see Maryland winning seven games. 1264 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:43,840 Speaker 2: There are seven wins on this schedule. Now it's a 1265 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,600 Speaker 2: matter of consistency on offense and playing as mistake free 1266 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 2: as possible in the defense developing. But look, they can 1267 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 2: go into the Iowa game undefeated. Howard Illinois and Kent 1268 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 2: State now lie ahead from Maryland and Ohio State and 1269 01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:58,760 Speaker 2: ioware going to be very tough, and you can probably 1270 01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:03,560 Speaker 2: pencil those in as lost, but at Minnesota feels toss upy, 1271 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 2: especially after the game last year. Indiana looks a lot 1272 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:07,919 Speaker 2: more beatable. We'll get into that in a second. Penn 1273 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 2: State's going to be tough. Michigan State now looks a 1274 01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:13,360 Speaker 2: lot tougher than perhaps we anticipated, but we'll see Michigan 1275 01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 2: is a toss up, but Rutgers on the road winnable. 1276 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 2: So there are wins on this schedule for Maryland to 1277 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 2: be a bowl team for sure. 1278 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:23,040 Speaker 1: Let's go back in time if we can, to the 1279 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 1: Ohio State Minnesota game that was played on Thursday to night. 1280 01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1281 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 1: I know we're getting to this one pretty late in 1282 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,440 Speaker 1: the podcast. We just had so much to talk about. 1283 01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 1: Ohio State wins forty five thirty one on the road. 1284 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:40,480 Speaker 1: Minnesota led fourteen to ten at half, and they hung 1285 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 1: around for a while in this one, but Ohio State 1286 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:45,080 Speaker 1: really turned it on in the second half. Now, I 1287 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 1: want to talk briefly about c J. Stroud, if we 1288 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 1: could c J. Stroud new starting quarterback, Justin Fields leaves. 1289 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: They've clearly got a loaded quarterback room this year, plenty 1290 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 1: of options. 1291 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:56,080 Speaker 4: C J. 1292 01:04:56,200 --> 01:05:00,120 Speaker 1: Stroud's the one who who gets the nod. He looked 1293 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 1: up early. Sure, he looked amped up. He missed some throws, 1294 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:07,680 Speaker 1: he was overthrown guys. It had all the hallmarks of 1295 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:10,560 Speaker 1: a new starting quarterback who's just like fired up in 1296 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:13,320 Speaker 1: a tough road spot with a lot of tough roads spot. Well, yeah, 1297 01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:15,800 Speaker 1: so he was high, he was long on some balls. 1298 01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: I think he'll hit those with a little bit more experience. 1299 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:22,200 Speaker 1: He did look very comfortable in the pocket, and I 1300 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:24,400 Speaker 1: like the fact that he kept his eyes downfield. He 1301 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,200 Speaker 1: was looking for the big play, and that's a good 1302 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:28,200 Speaker 1: thing when you've got Chris el Lave and Garrett Wilson 1303 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:31,080 Speaker 1: out wide, both of whom, by the way, had really 1304 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 1: nice nights. 1305 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, even though they were missing on the field for 1306 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:37,760 Speaker 2: wide stretches for I don't know why, but yeah, they 1307 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 2: had the stats. 1308 01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:40,320 Speaker 1: Let's say at the end of the game each of 1309 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:43,320 Speaker 1: them had a touchdown. The final line for Stroud was 1310 01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 1: two ninety four four touchdowns at a pick, which is 1311 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:48,440 Speaker 1: a pretty good start. 1312 01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:52,400 Speaker 2: Does Joel say, Joel mcheal, Does Joel Klatt like calling 1313 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 2: touchdowns tugs more than he used to? Or is that 1314 01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 2: just something I glossed over in the past, Because hugs 1315 01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 2: in his two games. Yeah, he's been calling both in 1316 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 2: the way he did Wisconsin Penn State as well with us. 1317 01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:06,680 Speaker 2: They did both of these games. He's been big on 1318 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 2: using tugs tuzz Yeah. I mean that's a thing that 1319 01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:12,880 Speaker 2: people call it, but I just feel like he is 1320 01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 2: really leaning into the tugs uh nickname for touchdowns. 1321 01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:17,240 Speaker 3: See. 1322 01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 1: The thing that I noticed with Klatt is that he's 1323 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 1: really leaned into calling one player on every team quote, 1324 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 1: maybe the best player in America. 1325 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:27,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1326 01:06:27,600 --> 01:06:32,920 Speaker 1: Maybe he's really leaned into that as maybe very optimistic gentleman. 1327 01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:38,680 Speaker 1: Ohio State wins this one. This wasn't a huge surprise. 1328 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 1: If you grab the line at minus thirteen and a half, 1329 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:44,440 Speaker 1: you feel much better than if you didn't. The bummer 1330 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:46,479 Speaker 1: news here is that Moe Ibraham went down. 1331 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:49,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he was I mean he was the offense 1332 01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:51,880 Speaker 2: for large parts of this game from Minnesota. Yeah. 1333 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty for one sixty three and two touchdowns. I 1334 01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:57,400 Speaker 1: saw somewhere that he may have popped in achilles. I 1335 01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: have not been able to confirm that, but it looked 1336 01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 1: like a bad injury. And that'll be a bummer for 1337 01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:04,560 Speaker 1: him because he was really going to be one of 1338 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:06,320 Speaker 1: the focal points for this offense. So I'll just have 1339 01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:07,919 Speaker 1: to wait and see until more comes out there. 1340 01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:10,040 Speaker 2: Something underscored in this game, right, If you're going to 1341 01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:13,360 Speaker 2: take down a team as electric as Ohio State is 1342 01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:15,960 Speaker 2: at their best, there has to be an element to 1343 01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 2: your team that, how are we going to score quickly? 1344 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:21,760 Speaker 2: Who is somebody that can score quickly? Who is somebody 1345 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 2: with a little bit of space and a little bit 1346 01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:25,920 Speaker 2: of wiggle that can score quickly? We saw it with 1347 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 2: you know, it wasn't always happening with Purdue, but they 1348 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 2: had Rondelle Moore when they took down Ohio State and Iowa. 1349 01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 2: They don't necessarily have that, but they had it that 1350 01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 2: day with Nate Stanley and that team that ability that 1351 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 2: year against Ohio State, enforcing the turnovers, and I appreciated 1352 01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 2: when they went for When the Gophers went for it 1353 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 2: on fourth and one on like their own twenty nine, 1354 01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:48,160 Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, what do you have to lose? Obviously 1355 01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 2: you can't match up player for player with Ohio State, 1356 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:53,479 Speaker 2: and that it resulted in the big mo Ibrahim run, 1357 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 2: But that to me was what I also noticed they 1358 01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 2: were without Chris Hopman Bell right Minnesota their number one 1359 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 2: receiver at that element to their ability. And when they 1360 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:06,320 Speaker 2: when they beat Penn State a couple of years ago, 1361 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 2: they had those two NFL receivers and that was the 1362 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 2: big difference maker in that first half. And so that 1363 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 2: I think is going to be the lesson of upsetting 1364 01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:16,679 Speaker 2: these teams with the high level talent is you're gonna 1365 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:18,200 Speaker 2: have to take some chances and you're gonna have to 1366 01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 2: be confident in finding one or two of those guys 1367 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:24,240 Speaker 2: on your roster. Otherwise you can't beat these teams with 1368 01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 2: twelve fourteen, fifteen play drives. You just can't. Iowa thirty four, 1369 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 2: Indiana six. 1370 01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:39,040 Speaker 1: Guess who just got feded? WHOA okay? Iowa scored twice 1371 01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: in the first two minutes and fifteen seconds. Yes, First 1372 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:46,000 Speaker 1: on a long touchdown run by Tyler Goodson, Next on 1373 01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:48,920 Speaker 1: a thirty yard interception returned by Riley Moss. Riley Moss, 1374 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:50,680 Speaker 1: by the way, picked off another one and ran that 1375 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:53,439 Speaker 1: one back for a touchdown a quarter later, So he 1376 01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 1: had two. It's a nice game for him. 1377 01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 2: Do we want to stick with Riley Moss or how 1378 01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:01,719 Speaker 2: do you feel about Miley Ross Moss or Miley Ross? 1379 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:06,600 Speaker 1: Who I'm okay with Riley Moss. 1380 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:09,680 Speaker 2: You're okay with sticking with his real name. 1381 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:13,799 Speaker 1: I am, I am, I like I like Miley Ross. 1382 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,200 Speaker 2: I don't know whatever you want to call him. I'm 1383 01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:18,240 Speaker 2: just here to confuse you over the course of the year. 1384 01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:20,160 Speaker 2: If he like really pops as an all Big ten 1385 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 2: type player, I would love you'll do that. 1386 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 4: To you. 1387 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:27,479 Speaker 1: Didn't even have to assist on that, fair Okay, this 1388 01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 1: is stories otherwise. This is sort of the story for Indiana, 1389 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 1: this whole game. This is a story for Indiana. They 1390 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 1: just struggled to get anything going offensively. Michael Pennix was 1391 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:39,880 Speaker 1: back from the injury through three picks, probably should have 1392 01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 1: had a fourth. Yep, they just weren't in this one. 1393 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:44,679 Speaker 1: They weren't in this game at all. Iowa looked pretty 1394 01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 1: good on the ground. Spencer Petris was like, okay, Petris Petrice, 1395 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:51,479 Speaker 1: he was he was okay yea. You know, there was 1396 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 1: nothing like spectacular about the Iowa offense. But they just 1397 01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:59,720 Speaker 1: did not relent at all and took it to Indiana 1398 01:10:00,200 --> 01:10:02,560 Speaker 1: by twenty eight. Great way to open the season for 1399 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:03,360 Speaker 1: the Hawkeys. 1400 01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:05,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna say they only scored twenty points 1401 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:08,080 Speaker 2: on offense because of the picks book. That's fine. They 1402 01:10:08,080 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 2: won a game thirty four to six. Get points however 1403 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 2: you can, and yeah, the Tyler Goodson one run was impressive, 1404 01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:18,639 Speaker 2: but after that the running game was largely pedestrian for Iowa. 1405 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:21,519 Speaker 2: But get points however you can, and Iowa got themselves 1406 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:24,120 Speaker 2: some points and a comfortable win over a ranked Big 1407 01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 2: ten team. Great huge day we had. 1408 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:32,719 Speaker 1: Michigan State also winning thirty eight to twenty one. Kenneth 1409 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 1: Walker the third. I hope that Wags transfer op Pisa 1410 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 1: on the dude alert with the top. Yeah, yeah, the 1411 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:42,559 Speaker 1: Wake transfer. What a game he had man two sixty 1412 01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 1: four four touchdowns. Michigan State was up twenty one zero 1413 01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:50,200 Speaker 1: till the final minute of the first half, and no 1414 01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:53,799 Speaker 1: one really saw this coming. The line was three. Michigan 1415 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,240 Speaker 1: State finished with five to eleven in total offense. They 1416 01:10:56,320 --> 01:10:58,759 Speaker 1: ran the ball really well and it was the reason 1417 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:02,640 Speaker 1: that Northwestern loss was not because Hunter Johnson underperformed. 1418 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:05,640 Speaker 2: No, he was pretty good. It was not a downfield 1419 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 2: passing attack for either one of these teams. These were 1420 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:13,400 Speaker 2: quarterbacks squarely within like a fourteen yard radius. But he 1421 01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:16,120 Speaker 2: was fine. He was totally fine, but just inconsistent. 1422 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 1: Michigan forty seven to fourteen over Western Michigan ruck Briers. 1423 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,800 Speaker 2: You can't just gloss over the Kenneth Walker thing though. 1424 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,320 Speaker 2: That's a celebration. Come on, Oh, it is a celebration. 1425 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 2: We gotta celebrate. Yeah, I mean Michigan State coming out 1426 01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:32,320 Speaker 2: on the road against the West champion from last year 1427 01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:36,360 Speaker 2: and stomping them killed like they did. I don't think 1428 01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:38,639 Speaker 2: they have a quarterback. No, yeah, I don't trust Payton 1429 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,559 Speaker 2: Thorn or Anthony Russo. But if they're scoring damn near 1430 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 2: forty without a downfield passing game, so that's awesome. What 1431 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:47,120 Speaker 2: does it go? Green? Go white? That's great. 1432 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:49,679 Speaker 1: No, they were great. Kenth Walker woked every. 1433 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:52,880 Speaker 2: Bit the part, just making sure we really should again 1434 01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 2: compliment Chakoozie. Let's take a soak elsewhere in the great 1435 01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:59,280 Speaker 2: state of Michigan. We had the Wolverines forty seven to 1436 01:11:59,320 --> 01:12:04,920 Speaker 2: fourteen over Western Michigan. Ronnie Bell went down with a 1437 01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:06,760 Speaker 2: knee injury in that game had to be carted off. 1438 01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:09,599 Speaker 2: I have not actual popping though after looking so great. 1439 01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I have not seen what official word is there, 1440 01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:15,120 Speaker 1: but that could obviously be a pretty big blow to 1441 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:19,040 Speaker 1: lose their most reliable wide out. Oh yeah, we had 1442 01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:23,400 Speaker 1: Rutgers with a sixty Burger sixty one to fourteen over Kemple. 1443 01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:28,519 Speaker 1: We had Nebraska destroying fordom New York's one true team 1444 01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:32,839 Speaker 1: fifty two to seven. We had Purdue knocking off Oregon 1445 01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:36,760 Speaker 1: State Jack Palm North an ice game thirty to twenty one. 1446 01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:39,160 Speaker 1: David Bell should also be on the dude list. We 1447 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:41,240 Speaker 1: may retire him as a dude, so he might have 1448 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:43,800 Speaker 1: to be due retired. He's just so consistently great. And 1449 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:47,639 Speaker 1: Illinois follows up its huge home win over Nebraska by 1450 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:52,120 Speaker 1: losing also at home to UTSA thirty seven to thirty. 1451 01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 2: Roadrunners are tough. I'm just telling you they're tough. I 1452 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:57,160 Speaker 2: don't know how many games they're gonna win, but they're 1453 01:12:57,160 --> 01:13:01,080 Speaker 2: gonna be a tough out and letdown spot obviously for Illinois. 1454 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:04,799 Speaker 2: Of those games that you mentioned, the things that popped 1455 01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:07,800 Speaker 2: Kate McNamara pretty good, look comfortable and confident. I don't 1456 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:09,640 Speaker 2: know what the ceiling is for this Michigan offense. I 1457 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 2: saw JJ McCarthy, the five star freshman, came in and 1458 01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:15,200 Speaker 2: threw an absolute dime like across the field, kind of 1459 01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:18,640 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson style. So the arm talent there has a 1460 01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:21,160 Speaker 2: pretty interesting ceiling. For the Wolverines if they're able to, 1461 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 2: you know, surround him with what he needs to be 1462 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:27,439 Speaker 2: surrounded by. But yeah, they ran well, both Hasan Haskins 1463 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,960 Speaker 2: and was it Corum the other one? Yeah, the other 1464 01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 2: running back. So that was encouraging. Again, It's one of 1465 01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:35,320 Speaker 2: those things where like I was texting with the Michigan 1466 01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:37,120 Speaker 2: buddy of mine and I was like, how are you feeling? 1467 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:39,920 Speaker 2: He was like, I feel fine. They comfortably beat Western 1468 01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:42,400 Speaker 2: Michigan And I was like, no, no, if your team 1469 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:45,200 Speaker 2: comfortably wins the game, they should win comfortably in week one. 1470 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:50,240 Speaker 2: That's amazing. That's an incredible, incredible thing. So yeah, kayleb allibie. 1471 01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:52,240 Speaker 2: And you know Western gets hurt at receiver. I mean, 1472 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,360 Speaker 2: obviously it was a setback, but it was largely not 1473 01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:57,400 Speaker 2: going to be a competitive game either way. I have 1474 01:13:57,439 --> 01:14:00,120 Speaker 2: nothing to add about Nebraska Fordham beyond let me get 1475 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:04,400 Speaker 2: this guy's name correct, Ryan Greenhagen. Did you see this 1476 01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 2: line thirty tackles. Hope we got a nice bath. Hope 1477 01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:13,280 Speaker 2: we got a nice bath after that game. So I 1478 01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:18,840 Speaker 2: am good for thirty tackles the compliment. I am so 1479 01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:21,280 Speaker 2: sorry and both so happy that I am just going 1480 01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:23,600 Speaker 2: to make compliment chakoozie a thing that we're going to 1481 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:26,000 Speaker 2: soak in all season long when guys deserve it. 1482 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:30,639 Speaker 1: Well, visual it's not great speaking of that, is there 1483 01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:36,040 Speaker 1: a complement chakuzzie spot for the PAC twelve outside of UCLA? Sure, 1484 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,280 Speaker 1: who okay gets it? Who gets that spot? 1485 01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:43,240 Speaker 2: You're talking about a specific team that can collectively soak 1486 01:14:43,320 --> 01:14:45,360 Speaker 2: that in my complement chakoozie. 1487 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:46,719 Speaker 1: A specific team. 1488 01:14:46,840 --> 01:14:50,920 Speaker 2: Let's say, sure, uh Utah comfortably beat Weaber State and 1489 01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 2: Charlie Brewer looked fine as Chas Brewer, thank you, Arizona. 1490 01:14:57,320 --> 01:14:59,320 Speaker 2: It's like there's a couple teams that took care of business. 1491 01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:01,559 Speaker 2: A Colorado was actually not that impressive in a thirty 1492 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:06,120 Speaker 2: five to seven win against Northern Colorado. As I'm looking 1493 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:08,760 Speaker 2: over this this slate, it was it was ugly, it was. 1494 01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:11,480 Speaker 2: There are three individual player performances. 1495 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:14,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but there are three classes of teams in the 1496 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 1: PAC twelve. 1497 01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:18,599 Speaker 2: Even USC like they win by twenty three and you're 1498 01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:21,760 Speaker 2: just like, this is I guess the defense was pretty good, 1499 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:26,000 Speaker 2: but on offense they just they didn't look sharp. Drake London, 1500 01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 2: So what three. 1501 01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 1: Classes of teams in the PAC twelve. You've got UCLA, 1502 01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:33,559 Speaker 1: You've got teams that won and then the teams that didn't. Yeah, 1503 01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:36,240 Speaker 1: we already talked about UCLA. Let's talk about the teams 1504 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:39,479 Speaker 1: that won. Let's talk about your Oregon Ducks. So I'll 1505 01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:42,120 Speaker 1: go through these very quickly. Oregon wins thirty one to 1506 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,840 Speaker 1: twenty four over Fresna. We'll talk about that next. Sure, 1507 01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:48,280 Speaker 1: USC thirty to seven over San Jose State. Really big 1508 01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:51,280 Speaker 1: game for Drake London twelve for one to thirty seven, 1509 01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:55,400 Speaker 1: something crazy great game. You mentioned Utah disposing of Weber 1510 01:15:55,439 --> 01:16:00,960 Speaker 1: State forty to seventeen, forty one to fourteen, ASU over 1511 01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:05,360 Speaker 1: Southern Utah. Colorado thirty five to seven over Northern Colorado. 1512 01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:08,080 Speaker 1: Walk me back through what the hell went down with Oregon? 1513 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:09,400 Speaker 1: How was this game close? 1514 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:10,599 Speaker 4: Uh? 1515 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:14,759 Speaker 2: It was getting off the field far too often on offense. 1516 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:17,679 Speaker 2: I thought Anthony Brown looked confused and out of sync. 1517 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:20,360 Speaker 2: The offensive line struggled at times. Fresno State. I think 1518 01:16:20,400 --> 01:16:22,439 Speaker 2: Fresno State's a pretty good team. I think they can 1519 01:16:22,479 --> 01:16:25,160 Speaker 2: contend for the Mountain West this year, especially with how 1520 01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:27,240 Speaker 2: uneven A lot of the teams that we thought were 1521 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:28,960 Speaker 2: going to be pretty good. You know, Boise State jumps 1522 01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 2: out to a huge league San Diego State needs to 1523 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,800 Speaker 2: come back against what was New Mexico State, like some 1524 01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:36,080 Speaker 2: of the teams in the Mountain West, San Jose State, 1525 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 2: just I figured they would have been a little bit 1526 01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:42,320 Speaker 2: better against sc even in a losing effort. But Fresno's 1527 01:16:42,320 --> 01:16:44,479 Speaker 2: pretty good. Jake Hayner started his career at Washington, so 1528 01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 2: to tie Jones at a couple of catches, they're well coached. 1529 01:16:48,479 --> 01:16:50,360 Speaker 2: But really the story to me was how out of 1530 01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 2: sorts Oregon looked on offense. Anthony Brown looked like he 1531 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 2: just he had happy feet at times. He was side 1532 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:01,519 Speaker 2: arming and rifling and overthrow throwing open guys at times. 1533 01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:03,840 Speaker 2: And you know, I was texting with an Oregon buddy, 1534 01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm pretty sure Anthony Brown just tried 1535 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 2: to run a draw while the rest of the team 1536 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 2: was running a screen. Like there were just very pronounced 1537 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:15,320 Speaker 2: Week one issues with the passing game. And they got 1538 01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 2: going on the ground later on and they were rotating 1539 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:20,720 Speaker 2: in offensive linemen. The bright spot obviously early on cave 1540 01:17:20,760 --> 01:17:23,360 Speaker 2: On Thibodeau was incredible. He forces a fumble that results 1541 01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:25,719 Speaker 2: in a touchdown. A couple plays later on a short field, 1542 01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:28,000 Speaker 2: he leaves the game with what appears to be a 1543 01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 2: mild sprained angle in a walking boot, but I guess 1544 01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 2: x rays were negative. So ahead of next week against 1545 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 2: Ohio State, who knows what type of situation he'll be 1546 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:39,760 Speaker 2: in physically, that's a positive thing. Noah Sewell, another top 1547 01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:42,639 Speaker 2: player forces a fumble and another short field, so they 1548 01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 2: get fourteen points off a short field. But like they 1549 01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:47,000 Speaker 2: just you know, they got a touchdown right before half. 1550 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:49,719 Speaker 2: They just couldn't get off the field on defense enough. 1551 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 2: And it's week one. They won their clunker. But as 1552 01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:56,280 Speaker 2: you know, I was tweeting this out because this is 1553 01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:59,840 Speaker 2: what I do during games. Irrational. I still feel this. 1554 01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:02,960 Speaker 2: I don't think Anthony Brown is the long term this 1555 01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:06,400 Speaker 2: season answer at quarterback for Oregon if they have designs 1556 01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:10,360 Speaker 2: of winning this conference. But Washington doesn't look that good, 1557 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 2: Samford doesn't look that good, the North doesn't look that good. 1558 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:16,439 Speaker 2: Now UCLA looks good, USC once again looks beatable, as 1559 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 2: Oregon has done these past couple of years, if they're 1560 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:21,640 Speaker 2: performing on a high enough level. But in terms of 1561 01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 2: what the goals are for this Oregon program, it is 1562 01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:28,200 Speaker 2: clear that they are not going to play their best 1563 01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:30,840 Speaker 2: football on offense with Anthony Brown running the show to me. 1564 01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:33,080 Speaker 2: But a great run to win this game, by the way, 1565 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 2: on fourth and short run from Anthony Brown. 1566 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I think all that's very valid. Yeah, 1567 01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:41,320 Speaker 1: if you watch the highlights, you don't get any of that, 1568 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:43,240 Speaker 1: because some of the highlights were really good for Anthony 1569 01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:47,080 Speaker 1: Brown total run. He had some nice throws in those 1570 01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:51,679 Speaker 1: brief highlight packages. He definitely looks the part. But there's 1571 01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 1: a lot that happened in between that I think helped 1572 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:55,680 Speaker 1: make this game as close as it was. 1573 01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,800 Speaker 2: By the way, when Oregon had to drive like at 1574 01:18:57,880 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 2: least fifty yards, it was punt, shortfield, shortfield, touchdown, punt, punt, 1575 01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:10,640 Speaker 2: good drive downs, punt, fumble, punt, field goal until that 1576 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 2: last touchdown. This is a Mountain West team. Oregon was 1577 01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:15,559 Speaker 2: Fresno esque, for better or for worse. 1578 01:19:16,400 --> 01:19:22,360 Speaker 1: The other class in the Pac twelve is Washington, It's 1579 01:19:22,439 --> 01:19:26,400 Speaker 1: Cal It's Arizona, it's Wazoo. It's these teams that lost 1580 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:30,840 Speaker 1: to teams that they probably shouldn't have. Now Arizona makes sense. 1581 01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:33,639 Speaker 1: You get Arizona losing to BYU and Jared Hall looked 1582 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:37,400 Speaker 1: pretty good in his first start, but we had Montana. 1583 01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:40,960 Speaker 1: It's thirteen to seven over Washington. That was a later. 1584 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:44,880 Speaker 2: They did have a spring season of two games rhythm 1585 01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:46,439 Speaker 2: spring season. 1586 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:49,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, we had Nevada behind a really good game from 1587 01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:53,559 Speaker 1: Carson Strong knocking off Cal twenty two to seven. Yeah, 1588 01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:57,960 Speaker 1: we had Utah State Blake Anderson his first game for 1589 01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:03,320 Speaker 1: getting the w over Wazoo. What do we make like 1590 01:20:03,640 --> 01:20:10,160 Speaker 1: Washington losings? I think a pretty seismic result in week one, 1591 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:16,200 Speaker 1: sure because outside of the Oregon Ohio State game next weekend, 1592 01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:20,280 Speaker 1: Washington squaring off against Michigan was one of those other 1593 01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:23,080 Speaker 1: matchups that looked like it would get relatively top billing. 1594 01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:25,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was a look ahead. I 1595 01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:28,519 Speaker 1: don't know if they just stink, but Washington did not 1596 01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:31,840 Speaker 1: look good in this game at all and losing not 1597 01:20:31,960 --> 01:20:38,559 Speaker 1: being able to score seven points against Montana, Yeah, I 1598 01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:44,760 Speaker 1: mean we were talking Washington up as a contender, So 1599 01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:46,840 Speaker 1: this is a pretty big deal to lose in the 1600 01:20:46,840 --> 01:20:48,120 Speaker 1: way that they did here in Week one. 1601 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:51,080 Speaker 2: Pretty hard to see Jimmy Lake as the Washington head 1602 01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 2: coach in like twenty twenty three at the moment, pretty 1603 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:57,519 Speaker 2: difficult maybe twenty twenty four. You have all off season 1604 01:20:57,640 --> 01:21:00,880 Speaker 2: long to get your team ready. Not that they're you know, 1605 01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:03,040 Speaker 2: in the weight room every day looking at Montana film, 1606 01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:05,720 Speaker 2: but all off season long to figure out a game 1607 01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:07,640 Speaker 2: plan for what this team is going to look like 1608 01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:11,000 Speaker 2: on offense. And they have a good offensive line in 1609 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:12,760 Speaker 2: front of Dylan Morris. They have one of the best 1610 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 2: tight ends in the country and Kate Oughton. They don't 1611 01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:17,200 Speaker 2: have the receiving talent, they lost a bunch of transfer whatever, 1612 01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:20,720 Speaker 2: They've got talent on defense to stop Montana, and like, 1613 01:21:21,360 --> 01:21:23,400 Speaker 2: this is what we got. This is what we got 1614 01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:26,000 Speaker 2: with months and months of Washington finally getting a full 1615 01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 2: off season under a new head coach, and Montana is 1616 01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:33,960 Speaker 2: like an okay FCS team, They're pretty good for an 1617 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 2: FCS team. This is Washington as a double digit favorite, well, seventeen, 1618 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:42,040 Speaker 2: eighteen point favorite, twenty point favorite. Is what we got. 1619 01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:44,439 Speaker 2: Washington is not a team that's going to challenge for 1620 01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:49,840 Speaker 2: anything significant under Jimmy Lake. If what we saw yesterday 1621 01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:52,479 Speaker 2: is an indication of where this program is at, because 1622 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:54,880 Speaker 2: they have a quarterback of the future and Sam Hewart, 1623 01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,439 Speaker 2: but the recruiting isn't there now. If the recruiting's not there, 1624 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:00,760 Speaker 2: then the development needs to be there. And I'm not 1625 01:22:00,800 --> 01:22:03,480 Speaker 2: sure they developed into a winning team this past offseason. 1626 01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:04,479 Speaker 2: It doesn't look like it. 1627 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:08,280 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Phil Steele's twenty twenty one list of 1628 01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:12,559 Speaker 1: most surprising teams. Number one Washington Huskies. He wasn't wrong 1629 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 1: about that. This is a hell of a result to 1630 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:17,519 Speaker 1: start the year. Yeah, I give Phil credit. He got 1631 01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 1: that one right. 1632 01:22:18,439 --> 01:22:22,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitions have spectrums all right. By the way, Cal losing, 1633 01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:26,040 Speaker 2: but Cal losing to Nevada is like Nevada is pretty good. 1634 01:22:26,680 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 1: That is pretty good. Yeah, we called that one out 1635 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:29,439 Speaker 1: as well. 1636 01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:30,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1637 01:22:30,920 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 1: Elsewhere, we had UCF coming from behind to knock off 1638 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:38,800 Speaker 1: Boise State.
