Former offensive lineman for the Ducks 17 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: in the NFL for eight years. Had to maybe he 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 2: didn't have a dog in the fight last night, but 19 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 2: the offensive lineman in you had to love what you 20 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 2: saw from Miami Hurricanes. 21 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,639 Speaker 1: Especially late in that game. 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: Some big runs and they score a touchdown to go 23 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 2: up ten and put the game away. The old linement 24 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: in you you can't turn your nose on that. I 25 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: don't care if you had heavy money on Ohio state 26 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 2: that He's just like, I can't help but love Miami 27 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 2: in this spot right here, right. You had to love 28 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: that last night. 29 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 3: It was great. I made a only couple of wagers. 30 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 3: I made a correct score wager zero to zero and 31 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 3: in the first quarter, So that was nice. And then 32 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 3: I took Carson back to that interception, which did happened. 33 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 3: He play a really good football game the other way, 34 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 3: j Sandfield of interceptions. I can just imagine if they 35 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 3: penned Mario crystal Ball, Miami's head coach, at some point 36 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: in that final drive, he might have had ten pants, right. 37 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 3: I mean, that's how excited he was to win that game. 38 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 3: Riding the football. I mean, that's what Mario Cristaball does, right, 39 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 3: And in Mario this year, it has done a great 40 00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 3: job sort of finally finally blending what he loves with 41 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 3: a little bit of more modern football. Right where you 42 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 3: saw that big third and four, We're gonna run a 43 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 3: screen pass right wide, receive a fun screen right like 44 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 3: those and if you notice on that play, you know, 45 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: they'll HOIU State defense element all fall flat on their 46 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 3: face because like they are so geared up to stop 47 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 3: the run, and those little things this year have been 48 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 3: into the difference. But this this game reinforced so many 49 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: things that I feel about college football. And look, I 50 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 3: know it's one game. It doesn't really it may or 51 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 3: may not matter today or next year. But it changed 52 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 3: the way I feel about a lot. Reinforced some feelings 53 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 3: I've had about college football the last couple of years, 54 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 3: and one of them that I think is really important 55 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 3: is that for playoff caliber teams, Brian, it feels a 56 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 3: lot more like we have to view their season the 57 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: way we view NFL teams, where it's not about how 58 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 3: you play in September and October, and that matters, right, 59 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 3: because you can only get in the playoffs if you 60 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 3: play well, but that the goals is to peak at 61 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: the end of the season. Right. Think about Miami season. 62 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 3: Think about where they're at now. They had played good 63 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 3: football for five weeks until they got in the playoffs, right, 64 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 3: and then just they survived if anything, as A and 65 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 3: M and they had their feet under them last night 66 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 3: and they came out roaring last night, right, I mean 67 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: they came out like full like just they were so 68 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,839 Speaker 3: much more physical and they played so much faster and 69 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 3: they were ready to go in that game from the 70 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 3: first snap, and the Ohio State was not. So I 71 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 3: think that for playoff caliber teams, whether it's Ohio State 72 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 3: or Miami or Indiana now or Bama or Georgia or 73 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: even Texas to some extent, Notre Dame like, yes, you 74 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 3: have to win and lose that. You know, you have 75 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 3: to win enough to get in the postseason. But in 76 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 3: the NFL, we don't view losses in September October like 77 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 3: we don't care at all, Like we're not we don't 78 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: preview back in September they lost as we never say 79 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 3: that about any any player might be the reason that 80 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 3: cost them a playoff spot because they lose too many 81 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 3: games or cost them a like for the Rams, for example, 82 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 3: they don't have the one seed because they lost the Panthers. 83 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: You know, like we would talk about and that we're 84 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: We're never like, well that team lost several weeks ago 85 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 3: that if therefore that No, we never view it that way, right, Brian. 86 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 3: We always view it by how the team is playing. 87 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 3: And this is act the moment and college football don't. 88 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: We've never done that. I think we have to change 89 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 3: that now. I think it's time to start looking at 90 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: at teams that are playoff caliber, not everyone's playoff caliber. Right, 91 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 3: So we can't just be for everyone, but we look 92 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 3: at it through the lens of what are they doing 93 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: now and handicapped games based off of that rather than 94 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: the entire team. Because Ohio State had a great season 95 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 3: right the test of season, but one thing that a 96 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 3: lot of people talked about was, hey, guys, like they 97 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 3: might not play many good teams this year. Right, And 98 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 3: and that's my second point is that they we're getting 99 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 3: a point two where like the schedule, because these big 100 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: conferences have so many teams, you might have a year 101 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 3: you just don't play anyone. Texas, A and m had 102 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 3: this problem or they didn't play anybody, right, and they 103 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 3: played Miami finally got smoked. Ohio State played essentially two 104 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,239 Speaker 3: and a half worthy teams. They'd beat Texas by seven. 105 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 3: I think Texas might beat them. It'd be different now, 106 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 3: of course, right, they played Michigan, who can't throw the 107 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 3: ball with a truefessional quarterback, and they played Indiana and 108 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: Miami for whatever you want they played there to day 109 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 3: like that's some tough I see games. It's just how 110 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,479 Speaker 3: dose they just didn't really get tested all season and 111 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 3: you see the result of that last night. So schedule, 112 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 3: but more importantly, how do you feel about my viewing 113 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: in the lens of an NFL schedule? 114 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, it makes sense. The first thing it makes 115 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: me think of is when Tom Brady won that first 116 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 2: Super Bowl with Tampa. Right, they weren't playing great football 117 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: all season long, but they won their final four regular 118 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: season games and they rode right into the playoffs and 119 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 2: won four playoff games. And it's like, it would be 120 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 2: silly to view whatever the record was, like nine and 121 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 2: eight or something. I'd have to go back and look 122 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: what their exact record was, but it wasn't anything sparkling. 123 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: They might have had a. 124 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 3: Tie, well there were wildcard team, remember. 125 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 2: Their wildcard team, And it was just like, you know, 126 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: if you would have looked at their one loss record, 127 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: you'd be like, this team is not impressive at all. 128 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: But if you looked at them peaking at the right time, 129 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 2: you probably viewed them differently. And maybe there's some truth 130 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 2: to that. With Miami, where it was funny during the 131 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: game last night. They were like, hey, at one time 132 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 2: in this season, they were the number two team in 133 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 2: the country, and there were a lot of people saying, hey, 134 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: Miami might be the best team in college football here right, 135 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 2: like they've got NFL talent, real dudes in the trenches. 136 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: And then they lost two of three and we're like, yeah, 137 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: forget that, and we never recalibrated, We never revisited that, like, hey, 138 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 2: maybe they are what we thought they were in a 139 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: good way earlier in the season. It's just, you know, 140 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 2: Carson Beck bad. Carson Beck showed up and threw four 141 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: picks against Louisville, and we're just like, out of side, 142 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: out of mind. We didn't think of Miami like that again. 143 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: But to your point, they're playing their best football when 144 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 2: it matters most. And at least last night they were 145 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 2: that team that we thought, hey, maybe they are the 146 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 2: best team in college football. 147 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 3: I tweeted out when they started the season well and 148 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: I thought they were the best team in the country. 149 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 3: And then after they lost to SMU all takes exposed 150 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 3: just like crushed me for that take, right, I thought, 151 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 3: go back and ask them how that takes going. 152 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 2: It's not over yet, right, Like That's the thing is 153 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: like we're still playing football here. 154 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: We still have a twelve team playoff. 155 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 2: If they sneak into this thing, they've got real talent 156 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 2: and can make some noise. Now, I think this is, uh, 157 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: you know, a boys to men's situation, like the you know, 158 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 2: the end of the road, you know that whole. I 159 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 2: think we've come to the end of the road. I 160 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 2: think the Dogs win today, and I think the Dogs 161 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 2: win next time they play. So I don't think Miami 162 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 2: wins another game. But that was an outstanding performance last night. 163 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what. 164 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: The bigger picture for me, Jeff is, you watch some 165 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: of these teams just take on the personality of their 166 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 2: head coach. We see this with Georgia, right Like Georgia's 167 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 2: personality is Kirby Smart's personality. 168 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: Georgia is a. 169 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: Team that just at sixty minutes, man, they are going 170 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: to battle you. They might look to like the Tennessee 171 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 2: game on the road. It looked bad for them. They're 172 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 2: trailing and they're just coming after you, and they're just 173 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 2: all right, next play, next play. Okay, we know we're trailing, 174 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 2: but let's see if we can make something happen. The 175 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 2: next play, Oh, we hit a guy, you know, hitting 176 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: getting a Willie Mays catch in the corner of the 177 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 2: end zone. Like all that helps, All right, let's try 178 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 2: to get a stop. We get to stop. They end 179 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: up winning that game. That's they just battle you. That's 180 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: a gritty team. And Kirby Smart is that guy you 181 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 2: go back to. I was just thinking this morning, remember 182 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: that great Rose Bowl performance against. 183 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Georgia. Way was it came for the ed Ages. 184 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? 185 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was something that that was when they had 186 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb and Sony Michelle at running back and that 187 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 2: one two combo and when Georgia won that game, Kirby 188 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 2: Smart is running on the field and he's like boom 189 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 2: and effort, like he's I'm like, he's Georgia. Georgia is him, 190 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: Like that's their personality is his personality And you saw 191 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 2: that last night with Miami. Like we can talk all 192 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: we want about Mario Christball and he's had some head 193 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: scratching moves over the years, going back to his days 194 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 2: at Oregon, how he misused some of his quarterbacks, like 195 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert who's now an NFL stud. He was so 196 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: careful with Justin Herbert and then when they had the 197 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 2: game won against Georgia Tech, they just needed to kneel 198 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 2: on the football and he's like, let's. 199 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: Keep running it, and they fumbled and lost the game. 200 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 2: Like he's had some ridiculous like head coaching decisions before, 201 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 2: but last night, that was about physicality, that was about violence. 202 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 2: He was preaching that and that is what they did. 203 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 2: I want to share just a little snippet. This was 204 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 2: after the first quarter on ESPN So good that. 205 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: I could just picture you watching this. 206 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,719 Speaker 3: And you're like, oh, yes, that is why I want 207 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 3: to hear from Mario well and I and he despises 208 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 3: his interviews, and this was an incredible Mario interaction. 209 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: So good. Check this out on ESPN. 210 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 3: ABC. Coach, how would you describe the impact of a 211 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 3: key Messador and Ruben Bain Every single game they show 212 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 3: up full throttle all the time to affect the line 213 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 3: of scripts, the affect the quarterback. We gotta do a 214 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 3: better job. We're starting to do some good things up 215 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 3: front the trench, and we just gotta be more physical 216 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 3: and more violent. 217 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about. 218 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 2: At the end there, you can we need more physicality, 219 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: more violence, and that's what they did. Man, that was 220 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: their whole whole approach. That's his whole approach. That's what 221 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 2: he is to a t and that's what they. 222 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: Were last night. 223 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: They took the personality of Mario Christopaul and that's exactly 224 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 2: what they had to do to win that game. 225 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 3: Well, in the interview too, I think they asked him 226 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 3: something like yeah, like the second question they asked him, 227 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 3: and he just like looked he dead pained the guy 228 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 3: like yes, and it was like that. I was like 229 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 3: that the end of it. Look obviously very very happy 230 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 3: for Mario in this Miami program, right, Like they this 231 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 3: is why he was hired, right, former player had won 232 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: a championship there. He was hired for his physcality and 233 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 3: for his program building. It takes time, right, It's this 234 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: fourth year that's about when you should start seeing some 235 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 3: of these results. You know. They if you can rush 236 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 3: the passer, you're in every game. Man. An interception they 237 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 3: had was just a brilliant, like film study interception, right, 238 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 3: and that changed the entire game because Ohio State was 239 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 3: sort of not they were playing okay, they were driving 240 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 3: down the field and then you throw a really bad 241 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 3: interception and just deflated the entire team. Right now, people 242 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 3: are going to talk about this and we should bring 243 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 3: it up. The teams off of buy in the playoff 244 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 3: now are zero to five. Yeah, now it's fair. We 245 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 3: got we got to go back to last year. What 246 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,599 Speaker 3: the scenario was exactly the right, This is what I 247 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 3: mentioned on social media last year. Three of the teams, 248 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 3: so two of the teams were big underdogs. Those don't count, Okay, that. 249 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 2: Was Boise State and Arizona State. Right that It was 250 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: the dumb set. It was the It was the NFL 251 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 2: playoff format. Basically, like they said, if you win your 252 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: conference in college football, you get a bye. 253 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and so like you had. 254 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: The number nine team was the three seed, the number 255 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: twelve team was the four seed. Okay, like that matters, Okay, 256 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 2: and we'll get to the NFL because that's exactly what 257 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 2: the NFL still has but college football. After one year, 258 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: they were like, this is dumb. We're changing it, right, 259 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: but that directly impacts how those teams with the first 260 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 2: round by fared in the second round last season for. 261 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 3: Sure, Right, but now we have another team off of 262 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: Boye who didn't play well in Ohio States, and not 263 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 3: only didn't play well like didn't look at themselves for 264 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,719 Speaker 3: entire half. I mean, like like the hitting, like the 265 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 3: physicality that Ohio State do. Their defense is so physical 266 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: and there was some big hits early on, but the 267 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 3: trench play Matt they got. They have not been pushed 268 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: around that the entire sea and they play good office 269 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 3: squads not pushed around that all season. And offensively just 270 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 3: no rhythm whatsoever. It took them a half to gain, 271 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 3: which is really what it does, right if you're off 272 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 3: for a month, it takes about a half to get 273 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 3: into rhythm. And I thought that made played a big difference. 274 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 3: It is rich so because Oregon fans last year obviously 275 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 3: played Ohio State in the Rose Bowl off a month rest, 276 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 3: and we said like, hey, you know, I mean, you know, 277 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: Oregon probably would have lost, but it makes I think 278 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 3: we kind of made a difference. Oregon didn't playing it 279 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 3: for a month at Ohio State fans just like mocked 280 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 3: us endlessly. Now or like the bye, the bye, and 281 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 3: I do and I do wonder like today when you 282 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 3: start talking about the Oregon Tech Texas Tech game, this 283 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 3: game that's a close game right by spread. Organ coaches 284 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 3: this week have talked a lot about this year's schedule 285 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 3: being so much better than last year for them, where 286 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: they got to have a home playoff game against James Madison, 287 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,599 Speaker 3: they got to a tune up game essentially call what 288 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 3: is a tune up game? Right? And how how much 289 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 3: better they're prepared for this game today because of the 290 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 3: schedule and the difference in it this year where they 291 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: got to play a game, they got to practice a 292 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 3: little differently, got prepared a little bit differently. And how 293 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 3: how that is made this they think their preparation for 294 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 3: tech Tech that much better. And if tech Tech comes 295 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 3: out slow today, I do wonder if people start talking 296 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 3: about like, yeah, the adviser done well. 297 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: I mean, it's one of those things until it changes. 298 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 2: This is what we know, you know, as far as 299 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 2: where we are right now, these teams that had a 300 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 2: first round by they are zero to five in the 301 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 2: second round. And there was a little bit to that 302 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: last night, right like right away, you know, Miami is 303 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 2: taking it to Ohio State. Ohio State is not crisp. 304 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 2: They're not executing well. They got shut out in the 305 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 2: first half. Right, Like, if if Ohio State plays the 306 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 2: first round, if they have a first round game, maybe 307 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: they look a lot better last night. Like they did 308 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 2: look little bit sluggish. They did look a little bit 309 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 2: uh just not crisp. They just were not on point. 310 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: And this was the part, the part that you were 311 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 2: talking about, Jeff, you like this better. At the end 312 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: of the first quarter with Chrystal ball. 313 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 4: What what why are you equipped to win the rock fight? 314 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: I was just like, all right, coach cool, thanks back 315 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: up to you guys. 316 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: It was like the wrong question asked Mario. It was 317 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 3: very It was very It was more its face, I 318 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 3: guess face what is what? What are you asking me? 319 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 3: Why are we why are you asking me this question? Yeah, 320 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 3: those those interviews continue to be very worth our time. 321 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 3: But uh, look it was such a good win for 322 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 3: the program for Mario last night. You know, I didy 323 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 3: win a championship last season. But Ohio State fans are 324 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 3: taking this. They're taking it hard rough. I mean, look, 325 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 3: they were the favorite to win the championship again this season. 326 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 3: You have a year when you have all these offensive 327 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 3: all these offensive weapons, right and Tates and you have 328 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 3: and you have Smith and Saying, and you figure that 329 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 3: those will carry you did last year to a championship. 330 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 3: Your defense, you're the defense this year. Might be more 331 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: talent than the defense they had last season. It's like, 332 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 3: it's a dude, I watched the Indiana offense or so, 333 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 3: how's the defensive buddy the house? The defensive linemen were 334 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 3: terrorizing Indiana's offense live. It's good offensive line that did 335 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 3: not look at the same Ohio State defensive line last night. 336 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 3: Part of it was not even Notre Dame. Notre dame. 337 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 3: I mean, Miami had the ability to run right at them, 338 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 3: which a lot of teams don't. And I think that's 339 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 3: just a physicality check. And how's they just a lot 340 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 3: of teams just can't run the ball right at them. 341 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 3: They weren't used to that feeling of double teams and 342 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 3: running the ball vertically right at the right in their face. 343 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 3: And they just never really, it never got better throughout 344 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 3: the game. They just never were comfortable as a defensive 345 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 3: line the entire game. 346 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 2: Man, you would have thought you wouldn't have even recognized 347 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 2: me yesterday. You know, I am like screaming, I'm going nuts, 348 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 2: like rootings for Miami. It really wasn't rooting for Miami 349 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 2: as much as it was rooting for myself, to be right. 350 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 2: I don't know about you Jeff, But I root for 351 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 2: me to be right. 352 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: That's what that's what. 353 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 2: I was so right about Ohio State being overrated, Like 354 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 2: you give Miami full credit for that win. Okay, they 355 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 2: played a great game last night. They're so physical. We 356 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 2: know what they did against Ohio State. But the way 357 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 2: Ohio State has been talked about this season was never correct. 358 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 2: Like Ohio State was talked about in such glowing terms like. 359 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Ohio State. Their defense, how do you 360 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: even think about scoring on them? They're just all unbelievable, 361 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: and it's. 362 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 2: Like they haven't played anybody. They beat Texas by seven 363 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 2: at home. They barely beat Texas, a team that gets 364 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 2: clowned seemingly by everybody all season long, and then we 365 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 2: turn around and it's like, well, Ohio State beat them. 366 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 2: It's like they beat Texas by seven at home, all right, 367 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 2: that's one of arch Manning's like only handful of starts 368 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 2: in college football at the time. 369 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: And then they got beaten by Indiana in the Big 370 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: Ten championship game. That's it. That's the resume. 371 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 2: The rest of it is Wisconsin and this team in 372 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 2: this run of the mill Big that's it. Like they 373 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 2: have great, great talent, but they were never that juggernaut 374 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 2: team that many made them out to be. And that's 375 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 2: not to say I think they suck. You know, people 376 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 2: struggle with overrated. All overrated means is their reputation is 377 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: greater than the reality, and that's exactly what they were 378 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 2: all season long. 379 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: Their reputation was oh, Ohio State, Oh my gosh, this 380 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 1: dam And it's like the reality wasn't that. 381 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,679 Speaker 2: They were not that same squad this season, And I 382 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 2: think a lot of it was tied to last season 383 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 2: where they wanted all they got hot at the right time, 384 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 2: and even if you look at that, I'm not taking 385 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 2: anything away from last season, but as it applies to 386 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 2: this season, right yet, you were all world against Tennessee, 387 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 2: a flawed team in the first round. You blew the 388 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 2: doors off the Ducks, which was very impressive. But then 389 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: you survive against Quinn Viewers and Texas. That's a close game. 390 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: You survived. He held on for dear life against Notre Dame, 391 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 2: like it was that enough for you to get the 392 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt all across the board this season, No, 393 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: it wasn't. So I thought they were ripe for the 394 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 2: picking and it was sweet to see that come to 395 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 2: fruition last night. That was a that was a beautiful 396 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 2: display for yours truly. I'll tell you what. 397 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 3: Jeff I had said this week. I thought the game 398 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 3: would be UH close, Butjase would win. On my podcast, 399 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 3: I mean to do it with Chris Filika the Bear, 400 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 3: and he's a Miami grad and he's been pretty right 401 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 3: about Miami this year, and he came on like boastfully, 402 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 3: it was like, Miami's gonna win this game, and people 403 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 3: people crushed him on social media, and of course they 404 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 3: never came back to say you were right. 405 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: That's weird how that works. 406 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, like you make you make a prediction and 407 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 3: ends up being right. Look, Miami, I think I don't think. 408 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 3: I know, you know, physicality wins football games. And me 409 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: Carson back through for like one hundred and thirty yards, 410 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 3: like it was. 411 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: It just ran it man fifty that's all you need. 412 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 3: You're good. That turnover makes such a big difference, right 413 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 3: it was in Ohio State failed in the red zone 414 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 3: a couple of times, which was their problem against against 415 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 3: uh in the enda too was poor red zone. You know, 416 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 3: they failed in the red zone, and they failed in 417 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 3: the red zone again sight, they had a miss field 418 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 3: goal that the interception like those are things you can't 419 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 3: do in playoff games and you're looking looking forward today 420 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 3: like Texas Tech is one of the worst teams in 421 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 3: the red zone in the country. They can't. They can't 422 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 3: score touchdowns. That that matters, and you have to be 423 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 3: able to score touchdowns when you get them. You if 424 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 3: you'll go every now and then, it's fine, But you 425 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 3: can't have a seven point swing like that. You can't 426 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 3: throw an interception that least is Miami seven points when 427 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: you're in your own red. 428 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: Zone, right, no doubt about that. 429 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 2: Hey, be sure to check out our brand new YouTube 430 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 2: channel for the show.

A hotly debated 445 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 2: topic in the hot sauce world is who's this year's MVP. 446 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about players, I'm talking about poors. The 447 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 2: most valuable poor. I know who mine is. My most 448 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 2: valuable poor is the original Louisiana Hot Sauce. Huh, here's 449 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 2: why it's the MVP. This sauce has shown me what 450 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: it's really made of. Three hard hitting ingredientss, vinegar, and salt. 451 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 2: It's the perfect balance of heat and flavor. Now that's 452 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 2: MVP material. What makes my most valuable poor different from 453 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: any old poor is in the name value. Other hot 454 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 2: sauces are so second string, but the original Louisiana Hot Sauce. 455 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 2: On game day, it'll dress any of your favorite eats 456 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 2: with ease.

A tasty Louisiana legacy like that deserves the 461 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 2: most Valuable poor title. That is why the original Louisiana 462 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 2: Hot Sauce is not just my MVP, it's my VP.

I bet he's awakeste I bet they're 508 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 3: all ways. 509 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 2: They might not have gone to sleep. Man, that was 510 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 2: compliments of Hurricanes Radio Network. But man, you think about 511 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 2: that pick six and really what it meant for the 512 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: second half, Like, imagine, scenario is flipped, it's turned around. 513 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 2: If you know, imagine if Ohio State not only avoids 514 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 2: the pick six but puts points on the board on 515 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 2: that drive. 516 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: You know, we're talking to like a seven to three 517 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: game at worst. You know. 518 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 2: So that was a massive play, as it turns out, 519 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 2: in the second half and in that game, and you. 520 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: Never know what happens. 521 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 2: If I thought watching that play live, because I can't 522 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 2: remember who was putting heat on the quarterback. It might 523 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 2: have been Bain Junior, I'm not sure, but one of 524 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 2: the the DNS kind of jumped it and it looked 525 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: like it was going to be a negative play and 526 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 2: it would have been their second negative play forced in 527 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 2: a row. And then the dB just jumped it, and 528 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, that's a bad idea for saying to 529 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 2: throw that ball. 530 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 3: And sure enough, well it was a design. It was 531 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 3: like a wide receiver screen like it was designed to 532 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 3: throw the ball. So that's why the ball got thrown 533 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 3: because that that was like, that was the play. It 534 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 3: was like an r P O screen type of thing. 535 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,479 Speaker 3: And so that to me is like a film study interception, right, 536 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 3: like seeing that on film and he was ready to go. 537 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 3: So look that game again, I mean, you know it 538 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 3: is it boiled down to the physicality, right, and one 539 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,959 Speaker 3: team just beat up the other team in the trenches. 540 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 3: And that's Look, there are many reasons to win football games. 541 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 3: One of them is just beating up your opponents. And 542 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 3: that's like there's and I look, I loved it last night, 543 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 3: you know, I think also to you know, I know, Brian, 544 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 3: you want your Irish in the in the in the 545 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 3: in the postseason. But I have a feeling the playoff 546 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 3: committee was like see see see we got it right now. 547 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,959 Speaker 2: Now they're not going to feel as good when Bama 548 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 2: gets crushed today, but you know that was that was 549 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 2: a w for them last night. 550 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: For sure. 551 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 3: The thing that's very simple, if you have a playoff, 552 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 3: you have to include all the teams that can win 553 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 3: and the already was a team that could have won 554 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 3: the championship this season. 555 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely, you can't include. 556 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 3: You cannot have two G five teams in and take 557 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 3: the spot from Notre Dame. You know. The argument is 558 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 3: is always, well, the tournament has thirty one at large 559 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 3: as thirty one eight teams, right, thirty one on a 560 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 3: mat qualifiers, that's ay from. 561 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: A college football has got twelve spots, that's it, right. 562 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 3: But the difference, Brian, is that in tournam everyone could 563 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 3: win a championship is in the tournament already, Like there's 564 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 3: no they're all in, that's right. So yeah, so the 565 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 3: spot you're taking is from an eleven seed ranked thirteenth 566 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 3: ACC member. You're like, they don't write, they don't be 567 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 3: in the tournament. Notre Dame was a team that could 568 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 3: win a championship and they were out of the tournament. 569 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 3: And so that's everyone's complaints, right. 570 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: So that's the question. It leads to, do you eliminate 571 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: all G five's? 572 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,479 Speaker 2: Is that what you would like to see is that 573 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: the short syndicate official model going forward? 574 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 3: I don't know, because I think you could have this 575 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 3: year if you would have had eleven eleven teams in, 576 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 3: which would have been including Notre Dame and two Lane. 577 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: There's no argument to be made from anybody like like that. 578 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 3: Vanner Bill can argue, sure, and and and know Texas 579 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 3: we want to be in, but like you really don't 580 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 3: have a great argument. 581 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 2: And so I don't lose to Florida. You've got three 582 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 2: losses like hit the road. 583 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 3: Man, right, yeah, And so that would have been I 584 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 3: think the best solution or the best answer just would 585 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,479 Speaker 3: have been, okay, keep it at keep it as it is, 586 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 3: but that you just have one G five team. And 587 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 3: to be fair, looked, last year, Boise State was a 588 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 3: top fifteen team the entire season. Remember they went to 589 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 3: Oregon and lost by three and organ two special team 590 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 3: touchdowns to to win that game. Jam you and two 591 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 3: Lane were not top five teams all season, I mean 592 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 3: tough fifteens all season. Like so to me, like that's 593 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 3: just a big difference, right. And so when you have 594 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 3: a situation where you leave out a noted aim team 595 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 3: that could win a champion and they were the fourth 596 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 3: best odds the legitimate good team. Are they gonna win? 597 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 3: I don't know, but they weren't even in the dance. 598 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 3: They weren't even in the dance, and so I'm sure 599 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 3: the committee was happy that the Miami won last night 600 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 3: because they can prove the CE see we got it right. 601 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 3: But in the end they they didn't they get it right. 602 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 3: Iris should have been in over JMU. That would have 603 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 3: been the answer, and it didn't happen. Hopefully it correct 604 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 3: itself heading in the next season. 605 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: You know, it's funny because just for a second, with 606 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 2: Notre Dame being promised a playoff spot if they're in 607 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,479 Speaker 2: the top twelve, if they're just ranked in the top twelve, 608 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 2: they're promised a playoff spot, and I think it's garbage. 609 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 2: As me from I'm from South Bend, I lead Notre 610 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 2: Dame football. 611 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: It's such garbage. 612 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 2: Any automatic spots, they earn your spot, whether it's the 613 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 2: Big Ten, you shouldn't be promised four spots or the 614 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 2: SEC promised four spots. 615 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: No matter what. 616 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 2: Maybe there's a year where you don't have a fourth 617 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 2: team that deserves it, you shouldn't be promised anything. Same 618 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 2: thing goes for Notre Dame. If you're in the top 619 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 2: twelve this season, that shouldn't be promised. But the point 620 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,959 Speaker 2: I'm trying to make is we only look at that 621 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: from one angle where it's like, hey, why would you 622 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 2: schedule Notre Dame going forward? If you're USC? For instance? Right, Okay, 623 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 2: Notre Dame at the end of the season. USC is 624 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 2: ranked number eleven, Notre Dame is ranked number twelve. Notre 625 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: Dame's automatically in. That could mean you're out, right, so 626 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 2: why would your schedule them? That's a good argument, but 627 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 2: that's the only way it gets looked at. The other 628 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: way is what you're talking about for this year, it 629 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 2: would mean no JMU, right, I mean Notre Dame is 630 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 2: in there, and well, I guess they still technically would 631 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: have gotten in, just based on the way the setup is, 632 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: it would have meant no Miami. 633 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: How crazy is that? 634 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 2: Based on what we saw last night, no Miami would 635 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 2: have been there, and that's the head to head win 636 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: and they're phased out. If you have Bama in, then 637 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: Miami is out. If Notre Dame is automatically in, that's 638 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 2: crazy too. 639 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 3: So the automatic qualifier discussion with the big tem proposal 640 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 3: White they have four aqs for sec A Big ten, right, 641 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 3: that's their proposal for like the twenty fourteen playoff ORMs 642 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 3: whatever it is. And their argument, Brian, is that if 643 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 3: you have auto that qualifiers, that means that your conference 644 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 3: is essentially deciding who goes your conference play is not 645 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 3: the committee, right, So if you do if you do 646 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 3: it that way, like you say, the four Big ten teams, 647 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 3: the four six teams, it takes the decision out of 648 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 3: the committee's hands. It just and looks at conference record 649 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 3: and conference results. So I understand from that perspective of 650 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 3: we just want the conference results to matter more than 651 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 3: what the committee thinks for every team. So I get that. 652 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 3: But your point about in a given year there might 653 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 3: be six Big ten teams or some of these teams 654 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 3: that that that deserve to go. Look, in the end, 655 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 3: though I've said the same thing all the time, the 656 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 3: playoff is about finding a champion. We don't need teams 657 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 3: twelve through sixteen even in this is they're not winning 658 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 3: a championship. And if you expand it, fine, you're expanding 659 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 3: it because you just want the revenue from more playoff games. 660 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 3: You're not expanding it to actually look fuck, okay, look 661 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 3: bowl game results don't matter. I think we love talking. 662 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 4: Oh, the Big Ten is in the SEC states, so 663 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 4: many yeah. 664 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 3: It doesn't mean anything. But like watching Vandy who had 665 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 3: most of most of their whole team yestery, their tight 666 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 3: end was out, Like they're not a playoff team. No, 667 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 3: like they're a playoff team. Texas is not a playoff team, 668 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 3: even they're playing better. I'm like, I'm not disagree with that. 669 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 3: It's just not a playoff team. And so the expanding 670 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 3: is only is only to either be nice however gets 671 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 3: in it's a participation tournament or for revenue, right, or 672 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 3: maybe people don't think the balls matter. I'll tell you what, man, 673 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 3: as the Bulls have gotten better. Right at this time 674 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 3: of the year, we have better teams playing bowl games. 675 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 3: Guess what the competition has been better. Brian Like, yes, 676 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 3: Southern miss And and law Tech. I'm sorry those two 677 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 3: schools are bringing you guys up, Like, yeah, that ball 678 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 3: game is not gonna be good. It's two seven to 679 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 3: five teams, but. 680 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 2: Like they're going after each other's next, you know, like 681 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 2: they are, but it's not good football. 682 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 3: I tweet this out the other day at Jeff Schwartz. 683 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 3: When you I don't watch a ton of Sun Belt 684 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 3: football or America in football. I watched, I used to 685 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 3: watch you know, Memphis and North Texas like some of 686 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: the better teams. There's a reason why the team is 687 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: seven and five. If you watch their seven and five 688 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 3: bowl game, you know, like like you can you see 689 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 3: why they're seven and five, Like, oh, that makes sense. 690 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 3: But the better, the better teams are starting to play 691 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 3: in bowl games and it's a good football game because 692 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 3: they're good football teams like Georgia Tech, and and and 693 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 3: and BAU was a great bowl game TCU USC. They're 694 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 3: so value I'm used so value in bowl games. Yeah, 695 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 3: if you can get through sort of the beginning of 696 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 3: the bowl season and they're going away now that being 697 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 3: wrapped into a bigger playoff. But I'm not one of 698 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 3: the people the things we need to explain the playoffs. 699 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 3: Twelve is good. If we just put noted a man 700 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 3: like you should have, then you would have had the 701 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 3: eleven best teams in the country playing, and that would 702 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 3: have solved all the all the problems with should we 703 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 3: expand should we not expand? Now the buye is you 704 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 3: we'll see how the team's playing off off of buy 705 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 3: I wonder if that gets eradicated to where we go 706 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 3: to sixteen teams and no buys right, But it does 707 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 3: feel like they're gonna have to be that big of 708 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 3: adjustment if you just let note name in the post 709 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 3: using in the first place. 710 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing is if it's if it's up 711 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 2: to me, if college football, if the committee they're like, hey, Brian, 712 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 2: you get any ideas for what the format should look like, 713 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: I've got, I'd be like, yeah, I do. I have 714 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 2: a couple ideas that you should implement this immediately. 715 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 1: I would keep it at twelve teams. I think it's 716 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: the right number. 717 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,479 Speaker 2: Now they're gonna do what you just said right there, Jeff, 718 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 2: They're going to move it to sixteen teams. 719 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: It's going to happen. 720 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 2: It means more money, more revenue, more this more that 721 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 2: they're not going to turn their nose on more. That's 722 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 2: just what they do. I would keep it at twelve. 723 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 2: I think it's the right number. You have a quality field. 724 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 2: The regular season means a lot, you know, there's a 725 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 2: lot writing on these games. You're not you know, opening 726 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 2: it up a little bit more and watering it down 727 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 2: just a little bit more. I think twelve is the 728 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 2: right number. Now, what I also would do, I would 729 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 2: never have automatic spots. You're not guaranteed anything Big ten. 730 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 2: You're not guaranteed anything. SEC You're not guaranteed anything. 731 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. 732 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 2: You earn it right, Like no automatic spots. And the 733 00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 2: last thing I would do. It's something that your coach 734 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,839 Speaker 2: Dan Landing was talking about it Oregon. I give him 735 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 2: a lot of credit. I've been talking about this for 736 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 2: a long time. All home games except the championship game. 737 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 2: Just like the NFL, everybody plays a home game until 738 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 2: we get to the super Bowl. College football should do 739 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 2: the same thing. Everything should be a home game until 740 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 2: we get to the championship game. I'd have it at 741 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 2: the Rose Bowl every single year. Oh what about the 742 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 2: Orange Bowl? Screw the Orange Bowl? What about the Fiesta? 743 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 2: I don't care about the Fiesta. To get it out 744 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 2: of here. It's not good for college football, are you 745 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 2: telling me? Like, as great as the atmosphere was last night, 746 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 2: it's way better if that's in the shoe and Miami 747 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 2: goes in there and takes them down in their own crip. 748 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,240 Speaker 1: That is way better for college football. 749 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 3: The whole thing feels like kind of sterile, right, Like, 750 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 3: it doesn't feel like it's it feels again, it feels 751 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,919 Speaker 3: more NFL, right where you have these neutrals. It feels 752 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 3: like Super Bowls, right, like neutral site game. Yeah, it 753 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 3: doesn't kind of have the feel I think of to 754 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 3: your point of of like a home like you should 755 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 3: if you're the two seed, you should have a home 756 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 3: playoff game like you has the NFL. You be like, uh, Patriots, 757 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 3: sorry you went for you the two to give. 758 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 1: Thee You're in the f tempe Real, what come on? 759 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 3: Dan Lanning also suggested yesterday that college football should play 760 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 3: on only Saturdays and the season should basically the playoffs 761 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 3: would just be in the month of December, which is 762 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 3: guess what the NFL does their playoffs in five weeks 763 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 3: The culgeable does not. 764 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: That's including a bye week, right, yeah, sure, and. 765 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 3: They collag football plays their their last regus the week 766 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 3: at Fasgiving and then they have championship weekend and then 767 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 3: they don't play for twenty five days twenty six days 768 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 3: for the teams off a bye to wonder if that's 769 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 3: something that that's considered sort of or look, you start 770 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 3: the season earlier, earlier, should and you give yourself a 771 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,879 Speaker 3: little bit of breathing room because you know again like and. 772 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: That helps the transfer window. 773 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 2: We got the portal opening tomorrow until the sixteenth. 774 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 1: Yeah tomorrow, Yes, yeah, you've got You've got. 775 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 2: Free agency during your playoff run. It's so dumb, like 776 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 2: they would never have NFL free agency during the NFL point. 777 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 3: Does not have a starter, But we have like a 778 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 3: significant backup on our defense for one of our safety 779 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 3: in the border today not playing like that's actually like 780 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 3: out of all the losses, Like that's a pretty big 781 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 3: deal for us. We don't have most people have a 782 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 3: backup safety, like we're gonna play a true freshman. I 783 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 3: think today playing us first STAPs of the season is 784 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 3: our backup safety. Not great? 785 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, uh all right, coming up next, Now, we did 786 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 2: have miked up footage a few years ago.

There was something that a 789 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:42,760 Speaker 2: college football player said yesterday. It's not the same message, 790 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:46,399 Speaker 2: but the impact is I think pretty significant. We'll share 791 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 2: that with you.

Jeff So 951 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:06,760 Speaker 2: Oregon taking on Texas Tech. It's a great, great matchup. 952 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 2: I can't wait for the Battle in the trenches, like 953 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 2: we had that on full display last night with Ohio 954 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 2: State and Miami. 955 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 1: That was beautiful. 956 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,919 Speaker 2: If you're into the Battle in the Trenches Oregon's running game, 957 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 2: Texas Tech's D line, their front seven. It is gonna 958 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 2: be awesome, man. But I'm curious what you think about 959 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 2: the points spread in this game, right, Jeff. So it's 960 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 2: ticked up a little bit. Oregon now favored by two 961 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 2: and a half. The total is ticked down, stick down 962 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 2: a couple of points down to fifty and a half. Now, like, 963 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,560 Speaker 2: what do you think of the movement with either of those? 964 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 3: So it's interesting based off of yesterday because yesterday Miami 965 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 3: got steam. 966 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: Like big time, big time. 967 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 3: Yeah right, yeah, nine and a half down to I 968 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,320 Speaker 3: think like seven. 969 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 1: It was at least seven and a half. I don't 970 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 1: know if it got lower. 971 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, I'm curious to see where the where 972 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,240 Speaker 3: the motion comes in today. Vegas has been an organ 973 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 3: this week. They've been the Sharps have been an organ 974 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:56,720 Speaker 3: this week. I don't know if that matters to anybody, 975 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 3: but just that's that's what it is really on the 976 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 3: money line. On the Organ money line, look obviously went 977 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 3: to Organ. I'm wearing my Organ sweatshirt, I my Organ 978 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 3: duck mug right now, drinking my coffee out. 979 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 1: Of you wearing duck socks. 980 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,360 Speaker 3: I mean, no duck socks, but I probably I probably should. No, 981 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 3: here's the deal. So last night, and again I don't 982 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 3: want to use last night to reinforce a lot of 983 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,439 Speaker 3: what I sort of have thought about this game. But uh, 984 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 3: Oregon has talked extensively this season about what happened in 985 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 3: the playoff last year to Ohio State and how this 986 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 3: season was about preparing to play in this game today. 987 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 3: Like that's what the whole season was about. And you 988 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 3: listen to the players talk, you listen to the coaches talk. 989 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 3: Of course, winning games the ever season mattered to them, 990 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:54,240 Speaker 3: but the goal was to get here in a different 991 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 3: place than they were last year. Last year they were 992 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 3: beat up. If you listen to players talk, they practiced 993 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 3: too hard, they were beat up up. They just kind 994 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 3: of weren't ready for the moment. And this year they've 995 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:08,359 Speaker 3: been preparing to play in this game all season, and 996 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 3: that think really matters. Texas Tech has not been here before, 997 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 3: and there is a it's a natural it's a natural 998 00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 3: human emotion. I think Oregon felt this last year to 999 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,839 Speaker 3: be very happy to be there. Now, you still play hard, 1000 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 3: you still prepare hard. We're like Ohio State last year 1001 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 3: was sort of like on a mission to win a championship, 1002 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 3: you know, And I think that does matter in a 1003 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 3: game like this, right when it's a close game, but 1004 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 3: one team has been there before the other team hasn't. 1005 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 3: And we talked about Ohio State and and and their schedule. 1006 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 3: I mean Texas Tech has played Nope. I mean, yeah, okay, BYU, 1007 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,799 Speaker 3: but BYUS is not. They lose to every playoff team 1008 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 3: right like they just would every every power for a 1009 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 3: playoff team. Utah, great season, can't pass the football. They're 1010 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 3: not the same team as Oregon. And I just think 1011 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 3: that those two things way heavy on my mind. Is 1012 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:04,720 Speaker 3: that Oregon has been preparing to play this game all season, 1013 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 3: tex Tech has not. And that Texas this is the 1014 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 3: best team Texek has played all season, both sides of 1015 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 3: the ball, best offense, maybe not the best defense, but 1016 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 3: easily the best offense they played all season. Oregon has 1017 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:23,319 Speaker 3: played more teams that are like Texas Tech than not. 1018 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 3: Right then they play Iowa, who's got great on defense. Look, 1019 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 3: the Penn State game is what is but Penn State's 1020 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: still really good on defense. Right they play Indiana. They've 1021 00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 3: played like more teams that are closer to Texas Tech. 1022 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,399 Speaker 3: The Tech Tech has played Oregon, So any of those 1023 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 3: things are pretty big advantages in Oregon. How you feel 1024 00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 3: about those points right now? 1025 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 2: You know what, I'm a little bit different than you. 1026 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:47,360 Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying, but I would actually point 1027 00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 2: to the NFL to make a point here, right like, 1028 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 2: because you're talking about the path for Texas Tech, and 1029 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 2: you're certainly right, like Oregon is easily the most quality 1030 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,080 Speaker 2: team that Texas Tech is going to face to this 1031 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 2: point this season, right for sure, and that could make 1032 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 2: the difference today. We'll see what happens. But there's one 1033 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 2: team that I think is being sold short because of 1034 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 2: their their schedule, and that's the Patriots. You hear this 1035 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 2: a lot where and there's a stat like there are 1036 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 2: popular tweets going out there where it's the Patriots have 1037 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 2: beaten one team with a winning record this season, and 1038 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 2: the Giants have beaten two teams with winning records this season. 1039 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,720 Speaker 2: So the takeaway is like, oh, okay, well, the Patriots 1040 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 2: aren't going to do anything come playoff time. And there's 1041 00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 2: another stat here that's really interesting to me. So the 1042 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 2: Patriots have won thirteen games this season, and so the 1043 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 2: thirteen plus win teams in the history of the NFL, 1044 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 2: like this is the Patriots the Patriots have played the 1045 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 2: easiest schedule since the nineteen ninety nine Rams, and it's like, Okay, 1046 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 2: what did the ninety nine Rams do that season? Oh, 1047 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 2: that's they want it all? They won a super Bowl, 1048 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 2: you know. So I think that it can be a 1049 00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 2: mistake to say, oh, this team has played a very 1050 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 2: favorable schedule and look, that could come back to bite them. 1051 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,360 Speaker 2: But if that team is still really talented and Texas 1052 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 2: Tech is right, that might not make the ultimate difference. 1053 00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,399 Speaker 2: They still could get a big win even though they 1054 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,240 Speaker 2: haven't been as tested as they will be today against 1055 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 2: the Ducks. 1056 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,919 Speaker 3: The two teams with the easiest schedules that have won 1057 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 3: thirteen games. I saw the tweet the d eighteen that's right. Yeah, 1058 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,759 Speaker 3: it was a ninety one Buffalo Bills who made the 1059 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 3: Super Bowl again and the ninety nine Rams, right. 1060 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,800 Speaker 2: And then seventy two Dolphins who went undefeated won a 1061 00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:36,400 Speaker 2: super Bowl. 1062 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 3: So it can't the Patriots take us more than Like, 1063 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 3: I just don't know if they're ready as a team yet, 1064 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 3: Like they're just not fair. Yeah, they're not as good 1065 00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 3: as the other teams are going to play. They've had 1066 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 3: a good season so Timexas Tech has these defensive ends 1067 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:51,880 Speaker 3: that are incredible height and Bailey and Rodriguez and Roberts 1068 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:55,880 Speaker 3: at linebacker, but otherwise, I mean, look, organize the advantage 1069 00:50:55,880 --> 00:51:00,879 Speaker 3: at quarterback. Skill, guys tight end up a running back 1070 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 3: in the secondary like they they're better detackle. So I 1071 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 3: feel good about where we're at as a team. You know, 1072 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,840 Speaker 3: no one's tried to run it in the A gaps 1073 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 3: against Texas Tech. I think we will today. 1074 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:15,840 Speaker 1: Absolutely try today. 1075 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:18,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, and so I'm looking forward to it. 1076 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 2: By the way, like how successful was Miami last night 1077 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,879 Speaker 2: doing just that to run straight up the middle, right 1078 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,799 Speaker 2: to the teeth of the defense. They had a successful 1079 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,799 Speaker 2: carry after successful carry right up the middle man. 1080 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:33,839 Speaker 3: That's what kind of gets me geeked about what Orgon 1081 00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 3: can do. And two like this is the healthiest we've 1082 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 3: been all season on offense. I mean, we we will 1083 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 3: have our wide receivers back, which we don't have for 1084 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 3: the last month. Yeah, I see people doing this thing. 1085 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:46,479 Speaker 3: We're like, well, Oregon went to Isolwa only scored eighteen points. 1086 00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,640 Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, we had two wide receivers. I go, 1087 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 3: what do you want from us? Wisconsin? Then like the 1088 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 3: was in a month soon and we lost our quarterback, 1089 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 3: and you know you start the second half like this 1090 00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 3: is you have to again that you have to stop 1091 00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 3: as a culturaball fan. In my opinion, looking at results 1092 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 3: of games that happened six weeks ago, yeah, really, it 1093 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 3: really doesn't matter and so oh utah in week three? 1094 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 3: Who cares that the game was in September, right, it 1095 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 3: doesn't It doesn't matter. 1096 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 1: How about this? What would you say to this, Jeff? 1097 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 2: If if you were to say, hey, Oregon does this 1098 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 2: really well in the game, and you feel like that 1099 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 2: that is the most important thing that gives them a 1100 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:35,879 Speaker 2: great chance to win the game, and vice versa. If 1101 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 2: Texas Tech does this really well, you're like, I actually 1102 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 2: really like their chances all of a sudden to win 1103 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:41,919 Speaker 2: the game. 1104 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 1: What would it be for each team? 1105 00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 3: If we don't turn the ball over, we're going to win? 1106 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: Okay, I I could. 1107 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 3: You know, there's an organ account that does like a 1108 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:55,120 Speaker 3: ton of like like incredible film study. I like most 1109 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:57,240 Speaker 3: of it. I think sometimes they don't really get football, 1110 00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 3: but it's it makes sense they they did something. We're like, 1111 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 3: if Texas Tech has to drive sixty yards or more, 1112 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:07,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna pull it up right here here it is 1113 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 3: right here. Sorry, I wasn't prepared for this, but it 1114 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 3: is important. Texas Tech is number on the country and 1115 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 3: forced turnovers right, and their number one the country in 1116 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 3: field position for their offense, Like it's been important here 1117 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 3: you go full field, So sixty plus yards okay, Texa 1118 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 3: has scored a touchdown only twenty eight percent of the time. 1119 00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 3: They've had an empty possession fifty seven percent of the time. 1120 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:32,000 Speaker 3: So sixty yards or more okay, yep. On a short 1121 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 3: field they have had score touched on fifty percent of 1122 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 3: the time. Wow, an empty possesion is only twenty three 1123 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,919 Speaker 3: percent of the time. If they have to go under 1124 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 3: thirty yards, they score a touchdown sixty seven percent of 1125 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 3: the time if they start on their own side of 1126 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 3: the field. Also again, so that's like fifty plus yards 1127 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 3: to score touchdown, right, yep, they have had They've had 1128 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 3: twenty nine percent touchdown rate, empty percent, fifty five percent 1129 00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 3: on the opponent's side. They have scored touch on fifty 1130 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 3: three percent of their drives. 1131 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 5: Wow. 1132 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 3: So that that's turnovers, right, that's the forced ton of turnovers. 1133 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:09,719 Speaker 3: And so if we don't turn the ball over, we're 1134 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 3: gonna win the game. In my opinion. I think that's 1135 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:12,480 Speaker 3: that simple. 1136 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 1: How about the other way, how about Tech? 1137 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,919 Speaker 3: I think, if if so, Oregon has lost seven games 1138 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:22,480 Speaker 3: in Dan Lanning, all seven have one thing in common. 1139 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 3: The opponents scored at least thirty points all seven losses. 1140 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 3: It's kind of crazy, right, Oregon is forty to zero 1141 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 3: er Dan Lanning. When the opponent scores less than thirty points. 1142 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: It's pretty good. So it's undefeated, right then? 1143 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and I think I think I put it. 1144 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 3: I think we're seven and seven when scoring more when 1145 00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 3: the opponent scores more than thirty points. And I did 1146 00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 3: a ton of racers of the game. Of course, Oregon 1147 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,320 Speaker 3: has only played I think five games within one score. 1148 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 3: If the opponent scores less than thirty points, they basically 1149 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 3: have won every game by a lot. Yeah. Now, if 1150 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,520 Speaker 3: if opponent scores more than thirty points, I think it's 1151 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 3: like eight games are within a touchdown, right, So, like 1152 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:00,759 Speaker 3: it's so to me, that's so if Tech's got a 1153 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 3: score points right like that? Of course that's the easy 1154 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 3: thing to say, John Manner, Right. 1155 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, No, it's deeper than that. I get it. 1156 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, but they have to find ways to be 1157 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 3: better in the red zone and find ways to just 1158 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 3: take organ doesn't really give up exposed to plays. I'll 1159 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 3: tell you right now, it's gonna happen. Org's gonna sit 1160 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 3: the zone defense the entire game. They're gonna give up 1161 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 3: some some some chunk run plays because of it, but 1162 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 3: they're gonna say, Okay, we're gonna make you work for seventy. 1163 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 1: Yards there you go. 1164 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:37,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you gotta you gotta be like Carson Beck 1165 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,040 Speaker 2: a little bit last night, right, like you gotta be precise, 1166 00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:42,760 Speaker 2: you gotta be smart. You gotta take what the defense 1167 00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 2: gives you. And we're betting that maybe you get a 1168 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 2: little impatient, maybe you do take a risk that you 1169 00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 2: shouldn't take. Yeah, it's like you gotta earn it. You 1170 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 2: got to execute all the way downfield, like like little segment, 1171 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 2: little segment, little segment right that. 1172 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:56,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I hear. 1173 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 3: He has a broken leg still. He asked him about 1174 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 3: his leg. He said like, yeah, maybe five percent. I mean, 1175 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:07,040 Speaker 3: cause he's the dam he what Jones played through. Like 1176 00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 3: that's a problem. I I you know, like organist struggle 1177 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 3: and most teams against quarterbacks are gonna run. You can't run. 1178 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 3: So I think a couple of things I think allose 1179 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:18,719 Speaker 3: things play in our favor. The one thing that does 1180 00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 3: worry me as well as the start time. I mean, 1181 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,520 Speaker 3: it's a nine am body clock game for us. Sure, 1182 00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:24,920 Speaker 3: we played one of those this year. Northwestern didn't go 1183 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,160 Speaker 3: terribly all to start. It's Northwestern, so well, it should 1184 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 3: be a fun game, man. I I uh, Luckily I'm 1185 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 3: working up until then.

But again, I feel good. I 1191 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,080 Speaker 3: feel good. It's probably the best I can to play 1192 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,399 Speaker 3: this game.
