1
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: Three two one zero, all engine running. Looks up.

2
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:20,479
Speaker 2: We have a welcome back to the UFO Show here

3
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 2: on the solid verbal. My name is ty Hildebrand, joining

4
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: me way over there on the other.

5
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: Side of this here college football Galaxy. My man Dan Ruberstein, Sir,

6
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm so good because I can hear

7
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 1: in your voice how happy it makes you that we

8
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: have a vaguely space themed weekly college football show. And

9
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: you're a very busy man. There are things that pull

10
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 1: you in a number of directions, but I will randomly

11
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: receive space messages as it relates to UFO ideas from

12
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: you at all hours of the day. It's true, It's

13
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: so true. I'll get like a medical not a medical,

14
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: but a science journal article about some sort of space

15
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: dust or some sort of alternate form of matter that's

16
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: only in the galaxy M eighty two. And I know that,

17
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: even if you're not putting your all into anything else

18
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: in life, you put your all into the UFO Show.

19
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: And so I'm thrilled to be here.

20
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: I'm thrilled to be here as well on this momentous week. Yeah,

21
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: as it relates to all things outer space, there was that.

22
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: You're a say college footbo through that man.

23
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 2: Okay, we're talking about space on the space themed show,

24
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 2: and NASA and the Space Program made some news as

25
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: they touched down and performed what they defined as a

26
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 2: pogo sticking maneuver. Okay, on the asteroid one on one

27
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: five menu, it's a near what it's a near Earth asteroid.

28
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: I think I saw at some point. There is a

29
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: possibility it could crash into Earth, which some would argue

30
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 2: hasn't happened soon enough. But that being said, yeah, it

31
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: did a maneuver o Cyrus r ex. I don't know

32
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 2: if it's Ocyrus rex. I'm calling it that because it

33
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: sounds like it's way cooler.

34
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: Now. It performed a maneuver.

35
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: Where it did a pass by the asteroid and then

36
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 2: it plopped down, it grabbed, presumably grabbed some of the

37
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 2: soil from the asteroid, and then popped right back up

38
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 2: like it was on a pogo stick. And by the

39
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 2: time we do our next show, I believe by the

40
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: time we do our next preview, at least we'll have

41
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: confirmation that it grabbed the sample, and then I think

42
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 2: it could you know, performance analysis.

43
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: So what does this mean? What does this prove that

44
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: we can do moving forward now that we can pogo

45
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: stick a near Earth asteroid.

46
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: To be honest with you, I don't know, okay, I

47
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 2: just from a space standpoint, but at least within the

48
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: context of our undiscovered Friday orbit Dan, Yeah, I think

49
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 2: it's got a natural tie into charting the unknown, figuring

50
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: out things that were previously undiscovered. In this case, how

51
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: about the twenty twenty Big Ten college football season.

52
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 1: I like that connection tie. I like that connection. Is

53
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: the near Earth asteroid, you know, something that could collide

54
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: with Earth? Is there a Joe Milton comparison in there

55
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: for you? Is there a plotting Iowa offense Holiday Bowl?

56
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: Notwithstanding comparison there for you? What makes sense in terms

57
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: of collisions and quick turnarounds and bounce offs? What's the

58
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: connection there specifically?

59
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: I think? I think specifically, first and foremost, the Big

60
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: Ten is an asteroid headed towards college.

61
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: Football, Okay, and so this show is that dip is

62
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: that pogo stick hop onto the Big Ten asteroids than

63
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: exactly back into the greater galaxy of college football at large?

64
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: I think that's right. I could not have said that

65
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 2: any better myself. So we are, in a sense the

66
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 2: probe we're going down doing the pogo stick maneuver. We're

67
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 2: just gonna grab a little bit of that Big Ten

68
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: alien soil.

69
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna preation dust.

70
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're going to bring it back up into the mothership,

71
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 2: and we're going to give you just quick analysis for

72
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: what you should expect from the Big Ten season.

73
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: Dan, I like this. I have a lot of thoughts.

74
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: What I think we're going to do is we are

75
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 1: just going to figure out the most intriguing thing about

76
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: the fourteen teams to speak about in the Big Ten

77
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: and largely focus on what is unknown and undiscovered about

78
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: each of them. Right. I think that's right. Yeah, I

79
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: think that's right. Just making sure, should we rifle off

80
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: a little bit of news here before we do it?

81
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 1: I would love to we are breaking news, Dan, Yeah,

82
00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: So what up with LSU? Huh? Yeah?

83
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: You may recall at the National Championship, obj Odell Beckham, junior,

84
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 2: former LSU star, was there after the game Seene handing

85
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 2: out what appeared to be money. Remember that the ultimate

86
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 2: trick or treat Ultimate trick or treat literally making it rain,

87
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: I read to you from CBS Sports. LSU was banning

88
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 2: former star receiver Odell Beckham Junior from its facilities for

89
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: two years after he appeared to hand wadds of cash

90
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: to LSU players following the team's National Championsip victory over

91
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: Clemson in January. Dan, this is a complex story. It's

92
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 2: a weird story. It is a self imposed ban that

93
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 2: LSU is taking to avoid further NCAA penalty in response

94
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: to any rules violations here obj for two years. There

95
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 2: are also some voluntary scholarship reductions that are going to

96
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: be taking place over that same period of time. I

97
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 2: think account of eight total is what they're looking at

98
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: in terms of reducing scholarships. They're also going to scale

99
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: back some of their own recruiting time. I have not

100
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 2: seen further commentary on this matter, Dan, I'm a bit

101
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: unprepared as it relates to whether or not this is

102
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 2: going to be enough to stave off any future moves

103
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 2: by the NCAA future in fractions.

104
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: But gosh, what a weird story. Yeah, very strange, and

105
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: it's unknown at this time. I mean, the assumption, it

106
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: appears I saw some reporting in a different couple different

107
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: places that LSU is under the assumption that it's going

108
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: to be looked at as a level one violation, but

109
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: there are three different tiers, three different levels to level

110
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: one violations, and so LSU and trying to get out

111
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: ahead of things. Also there is the accusation and the story,

112
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: the allegation that a booster paid the father of now

113
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: a former offensive lineman, Vidal Alexander one hundred and eighty

114
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: thousand dollars out of the five hundred thousand dollars he

115
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: is accused of or convicted of embezzling from a hospital,

116
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: a local Baton Rouge hospital. I believe it's in Baton Rouge,

117
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: which is the much more ugly part of the story.

118
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: The OBJ thing is whatever, you distance yourself from OBJ

119
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 1: for two years. Fine, sure, I saw. There's also an

120
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: impermissible contact allegation against ed Orgeron. He will suffer some

121
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: consequences from that. But yeah, LSU is hoping that they

122
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: can slap their own risk, but that doesn't seem to

123
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: always work in these scenarios.

124
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: A story that we will continue to follow here, to

125
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 2: say the least, for sure. I've also got that Florida

126
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: Football is going to remain closed until Monday.

127
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: Again.

128
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 2: We're recording this on Thursday evening Monday because of the

129
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: on going COVID outbreak taking place down there, So you know, again,

130
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: talk about weird circumstances, right, we had Florida going on

131
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 2: the road, losing to a and m Dan Mullen in

132
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 2: the immediate aftermath saying how he wanted to have a

133
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: full house in the swamp. Immediately a bunch of players

134
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 2: seem to contract COVID, including Dan Mullen and now midsum

135
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 2: talk over when they can resume activities. They're going to

136
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: remain closed for a few more days. So you know, again,

137
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 2: we say all of this with the hopeful understanding that

138
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 2: we're just rooting for everyone to get healthy and better

139
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 2: and you know that they can get past this bump

140
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: in the road. It has affected a number of other

141
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 2: schools around college football. There is a touch of irony

142
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: here that is not lost on anybody. But we hope

143
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 2: they can get back up and running soon.

144
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh for sure. And along those similar lines, I

145
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: don't know if we mentioned New Mexico, Colorado State has

146
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 1: been canceled. I think it was Colorado State. Who is

147
00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: you know, hopefully correcting a bit of a posetive situation

148
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: positive in the testing way and should also mention just

149
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: on better News because we didn't really touch on it

150
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: too much because there aren't too many interesting games. But

151
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: the Mountain West is back. Yeah, the Mountain West is back.

152
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: We've got Wyoming, Nevada, Utah State, Boise State, which I

153
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 1: guess i'd like to see. Boise State new offensive coordinator

154
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: was Zach Hill to Asu, Hawaii, Fresno State. So it's

155
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: the premiere of the Kail Kaylan de Bor Bulldogs, excuse me,

156
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,959
Speaker 1: and the Todd Graham Warriors. Why Warriors, They're always the

157
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: Rainbow Warriors to me air Force, San Jose State UNLV

158
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: Marcus Royal now former Oregon offensive coordinator taking over there

159
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: in San Diego State, and Brady Hoke, so there's interesting action.

160
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: And we also have it looks like two ten thirty

161
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: eastern kickoffs, So if you've been missing late late night

162
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: East Coast time football, a nice little pogo stick down

163
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: there for you to enjoy. That is all I got.

164
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 2: I see that Garrett Schrader, formerly a Mississippi State quarterback.

165
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 2: He's going to be transferring out. Started four games from

166
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 2: Mississippi State last year. Obviously they're going with kJ Costello

167
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 2: in a different system now. So Garrett Trader doesn't feel

168
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: he's got a spot there any other news that you

169
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 2: want to get through before we jump in and just

170
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 2: pogo stick down onto this big ten asteroid.

171
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: Not especially, I'm excited because we're going to touch on

172
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: a number of teams, and specifically with Iowa. I know

173
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: you've been wanting to get off your chest the boundary

174
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: corners I guess have tweaked their technique in this new

175
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: Iowa defense, and you just wanted to touch on pogo

176
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,719
Speaker 1: stick down on some new tweaks and how that might

177
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: affect their play calling. So I'm super pumped.

178
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,160

184
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: Dan, okay, correct without shall we do this? Let's do it.

185
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 2: You've got the West, I've got the East. Where shall

186
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 2: we start? Let's start west. Let's start with one of

187
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 2: the teams that's in the state I'm literally in right now,

188
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 2: the fight in a Lion I of Illinois, the Drive

189
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 2: to five or four. I don't know, whatever makes you happy.

190
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,719
Speaker 1: Tie. The thing is doesn't.

191
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 2: Really matter this year because of Bowl eligibility requirements being relaxed.

192
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 2: You just need to find a way to win the crowd,

193
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 2: need to find a way to be interesting, and then

194
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: that's how you get into a Bowl game.

195
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: Right. Yeah, let's just go over what intrigues us about

196
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 1: each of these teams. And with Illinois, I'm gonna say

197
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: it's the furries tie. The furry asking you, sir as

198
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: I'll put s furries? Does Dan speak up? The transferries tie,

199
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 1: the transferries transfer into this program from a bunch of schools.

200
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: Somebody I'm particularly interested in. Let's hope he's not injured

201
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 1: by the time people watch this. But Luke Ford, the

202
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: Georgia transfer, blue chip transfer from Illinois transferred back home.

203
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see because they've succeeded so well with

204
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: pass catchers coming in, especially from USC last year. We

205
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 1: saw some big plays. So there's the imatorbe Bay family

206
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: has a big presence at Illinois. And what does that

207
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 1: mean for Brandon Peters Because I do believe the defense

208
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: even though they've lost a couple of guys up front,

209
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 1: and I think they're just going to be solid once again.

210
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 1: It's the offense that worries me, And is that talent

211
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: those transfers in. Is that talent enough those guys who

212
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: have transferred in enough to make Brandon Peters interesting? I

213
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: think it's intriguing because at times he made plays last year,

214
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: but that was just it at times. That to me

215
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: is interesting and intriguing about Illinois. Has the talent level

216
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: increased enough to the point where playing in the Big

217
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: Ten West, they can make more noise than just be

218
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 1: shock of the world Illinois like, they're just consistently interesting. Okay, No,

219
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: I think that's a good point.

220
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 2: And of course, the Lion I square off against another

221
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 2: West opponent, one of the Big Ten slate that is

222
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 2: the Wisconsin Badgers. Dan, how do you feel about that?

223
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 2: How do you feel about the Badgers this year?

224
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: I think good Wisconsin's one of those teams that it's

225
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: very difficult to see a complete dramatic change in either direction,

226
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: and because their ceiling seems to be so high, just

227
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: not quite as high as I'm sure they would like

228
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: it to be. Jack Cone is injured and out for

229
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 1: a considerable amount of time, and so my big intriguing

230
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: thought question is I guess it's more hope where those

231
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 1: Winter Wonders Ty, We've seen it almost year and year

232
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: out that they they'll win the West, They'll get to

233
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 1: the championship game and inevitably play against Ohio State most

234
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: likely maybe go to the Rose Bowl and take on

235
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: Oregon like they did last year. Who are those guys

236
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: that those top tier teams across the country or within

237
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: the conference itself. Who are they scared of? Who are

238
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,760
Speaker 1: those receivers that teams have to game plan for. We

239
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: know Jonathan Taylor's gone, and we know that he was

240
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: somebody you had to know. You know, usually he's in

241
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: the backfield, but you had to be extremely concerned about

242
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: him touching the ball every time. Who are those guys?

243
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 1: This year looks like it's a running back by committee

244
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: with Kendrick pryor you know they lose Quintes Cephis to

245
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: the NFL. Who is that guy or group of guys

246
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: for Wisconsin who you're like, Oh crap, he's lined up

247
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: in the slot. Oh no, he's lined up outside. Oh

248
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: my goodness, he's in motion. I'm worried about where those

249
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: Winter Wonders are those guys who can perform in December

250
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: and January against anybody.

251
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 2: The other thing with Wisconsin, you didn't mention the name

252
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 2: Graham Mertz.

253
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 1: That's true, Jack Cone out.

254
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Graham Mertz is a highly touted quarterback recruit.

255
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: Does he fall under that for you? Is he a

256
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: winter wonder? He could be.

257
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: We don't know enough about him, and I'm very curious

258
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: to see what he can give them. I think Jack Cone,

259
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 2: for his part last year was better than I expected,

260
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 2: but still there was much room to grow in that offense.

261
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: And if you can add in a guy.

262
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 2: With a little bit more arm town, a little bit

263
00:14:55,640 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 2: more consistency, obviously, that improves the quality of of that

264
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 2: rushing attack for Wisconsin. Hard to do more of that,

265
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 2: but it makes them all the more threatening as an

266
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 2: opponent if you've got some sort of capable passing game

267
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 2: to go along with it.

268
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: So I'm very.

269
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 2: Curious, very intrigued in which direction things go at the

270
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 2: quarterback position for Wisconsin.

271
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. I like Jack Cone, I like Graham Ertz. Hopefully

272
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: he gives them a bit of a higher ceiling. Who

273
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: is there a team to you? Let's tie it to Wisconsin. Tie.

274
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 1: Is there a team to you in the East where

275
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: you like, but your intrigue is about their ceiling. Well,

276
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I'll say Indiana, Oh, okay, go on.

277
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm intrigued by Indiana's ceiling insofar as I think they

278
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: have really been trying to push up against that upper

279
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: crust of the East for a few years now. You know,

280
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: they've been knocking at the door to knock off in

281
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: Ohio state or a Penn state, or a Michigan or

282
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: a Michigan state with any kind of consistency, And I

283
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 1: think this might be the year where they finally get

284
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: to that height. I'm not saying they're gonna win the East, but.

285
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 2: I think they've got enough consistency across the board, enough

286
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 2: depth finally across the board where that actually becomes real possibility.

287
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: Michael Penix was hurt last year. He's back this year.

288
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 2: Peyton ram Is.

289
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: That your intrigue point, Big Lefty?

290
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 2: He is my intrigue point, because I think the ceiling

291
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: with Penix is probably higher than it was with Ramsey,

292
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 2: and we just didn't see enough of him. So you

293
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 2: combine that with Stevie Scott, who we obviously like on

294
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 2: the show and have talked a lot about. I think

295
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 2: they're good at receiver, questions about the line, but the

296
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: defense was young a year ago. It should show some

297
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 2: improvement again this season.

298
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: Had we were we were all so young.

299
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 2: The year ago we were we were had there, we

300
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 2: were young, but Hey had their offensive coordinator depart but

301
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: promoted from within. So I just think that continuity, especially

302
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 2: in a weird year like this, where teams are learning

303
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 2: a new system, they have new coaches and new players,

304
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: it really helps to have a core of guys who

305
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 2: just kind of get what your program's all about. And

306
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 2: so that's part of the reason why, especially in a

307
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 2: week one game against a Penn State, I find Indiana

308
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 2: particularly intriguing and especially moving forward, right moving forward into

309
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty one slate, I do think Tom Allen

310
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 2: is building something at Indiana, and for that reason, they're

311
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 2: more intriguing to me than probably most.

312
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: Others, probably not Nine Windiana when you only have eight

313
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: regular season games. Correct, the nine Windyana spirit it's there,

314
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: it lives on, It does live on absolutely all, right,

315
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: any other team where like So let's take it back

316
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: to how I felt about Illinois, where I'm interested to

317
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: see how they go from being scrappy to competent weekly competence.

318
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: Is there a team that weekly competence is an intrigue

319
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 1: point for you within the Big ten East, I'll nus

320
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 1: say Rutgers.

321
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 2: Dan, Okay, I'm gonna say, good answer, good answer, Yeah, Rutgers.

322
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,360
Speaker 1: Rutgers is intriguing.

323
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 2: So Greg Ciano's back, Yeah, he's been there before. I'm

324
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 2: not saying there's going to be some sort of overnight transition.

325
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: But at Furries too, they do. They did a lot

326
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 2: of work. Because I'm still not comfortable saying that, but

327
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,639
Speaker 2: i know you're not. Shiano wasn't the sexy higher, but

328
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 2: he knows the turf, he knows how to recruit to Rutgers.

329
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 2: He obviously did some work on the transfer portal. The

330
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 2: offense is going to be a work in progress. They've

331
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 2: got a million quarterbacks on.

332
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: The roster that they're still trying to sift through.

333
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: As of recording, it looks like it's going to be

334
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,360
Speaker 2: King Arthur Saikowski the week one starter, but that could

335
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: change depending on how Shiano feels. I am most curious

336
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 2: about their defense. I think their defense can be cobbled

337
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 2: together in a way that they they got enough parts

338
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 2: to be competitive out there. To offer enough resistance and hey,

339
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 2: at a minimum, be better than Maryland. They've got everybody's

340
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 2: got to be better than Maryland this year, and that

341
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 2: would represent, I think, a pretty big step for for Rutgers.

342
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 2: So if you're talking week to week, who's gonna who's

343
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 2: gonna be intriguing? Just from a competence standpoint, I'm curious

344
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 2: to see what Chiano can do in your.

345
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: One Yeah, I mean that the transfers are huge, and yeah,

346
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: the week to week competence thing, I think that the

347
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 1: Greg Ciano higher is not a year one higher. That

348
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 1: is a we are investing these next five years into

349
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: hoping that what he did before can become not necessarily reality,

350
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 1: but in the realm of reality. New Jersey is a

351
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 1: talented state, you see, I mean Pa, New Jersey, parts

352
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: of New York, Connecticut. There's talent in the northeast. Rutgers

353
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: is just a very unsexy place. Yeah, and we'll see

354
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: if if the Scarlet Knights can sex it up.

355
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 2: So let me build on that, okay, please, As you

356
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 2: talk about unsexy places, you got a couple of those

357
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: in the Big ten West, don't.

358
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: You, Yeah, I guess, But be more specific, what type

359
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: of unsex do you want?

360
00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 2: I'm talking about the Iowahawkeyes, Dan of the Iowha guys,

361
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 2: as we've talked about on our showtime and again kind

362
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 2: of feels vanilla, kind of feels the same every year.

363
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 1: They've got some of their own challenges.

364
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty, They've obviously had a lot going on

365
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 2: off the field. Here where do we stand on where

366
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 2: Kirk ference takes things?

367
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 1: Explosivo? That's my word, ti, I's you familiar civo? Explosciva?

368
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with the band Tenacious D? I am, yes,

369
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: Tenacious D. It's a song by Tenacious D. They say

370
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: explosivo a bunch and it weirdly, I kept saying that

371
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: looking at Iowa and the potential for twenty twenty, Iowa

372
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: finished something like ninety fifth and ninety sixth and explosive

373
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: plays on the ground and through the air, with an

374
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 1: experienced quarterback, with relatively developed skill players, a good offensive line.

375
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: Tristan Wurf's obviously was the headliner, got drafted pretty early,

376
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:56,120
Speaker 1: and their ability to generate, or their desire to generate

377
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: explosive plays something that's key in generating and stopping Iowa's

378
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: fantastic on defense at doing But that to me is

379
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: the intrigue point. Is I mean Spencer Petros this year

380
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: is the new quarterback, a big kid from California and

381
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: big arm whatever. But is that offense opening up at all?

382
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 1: Wisconsin for all of their identity, You know how solidly

383
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:23,160
Speaker 1: in to Madison, Wisconsin's offensive identity is They've gotten creative.

384
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 1: They've run RPOs, they've run misdirection, they've spread the ball around.

385
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: Iowa has not. Iowa has decidedly not. And it's is

386
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: there any sort of evolution of this offense. I know

387
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 1: they lose key guys on defense on all levels, but

388
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: to me, I'm not worried about their defense. It's offensively,

389
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 1: what can they do to put a scare into teams

390
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: that basically all kept Iowa under thirty points last year?

391
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,359
Speaker 1: They didn't score a touchdown in their first seven quarters

392
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: in October last year against Michigan and Penn State. If

393
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: you're an Iowa fan watching this, go back to how

394
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: you felt during those seven quarters in which your very

395
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 1: experienced quarterback Nate Stanley was unable and we knew his

396
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 1: ability was there to lead Iowa to the end zone.

397
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,959
Speaker 1: That those types of streaks can't happen anymore, ty if

398
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: Iowa was going to win this division. No, it's true.

399
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,880
Speaker 1: That's the intrigue point. How are they getting the ball downfield? Quicker?

400
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 2: Iowa for a long time has challenged for the Big

401
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 2: Ten West. This year, I think you could make a

402
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 2: very real.

403
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: Case for Minnesota.

404
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 2: Minnesota is a veteran team, maybe not so much on defense,

405
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: but they've obviously got a huge Week one matchup at

406
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 2: home against Michigan. Are you buying in on the Gophers?

407
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 2: Where's your intrigue point there?

408
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: Linebackers and defense in general, just because they were so

409
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: disruptive in that back seven, and the corners are in

410
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: pretty good shape. I know they're replacing safeties including Antoine Winfield,

411
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: but their linebackers were so disruptive and so havocy. Because

412
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,360
Speaker 1: they return what they return on offense with a new

413
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, I'm not terribly worried about the Gopher offense.

414
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: What it is to me is the defense. What it

415
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: is to me is what they look like in that

416
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: first half against Penn State. Do they have that same

417
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: ceiling this year? As this has to be their year

418
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 1: with Tanner Morgan as a senior this has to be

419
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: their year with what they return on offense, and it

420
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 1: can be, but I think it largely is going to

421
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 1: come down to how well and how deep they are

422
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: at linebacker and safety, and that, to me is the

423
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,920
Speaker 1: big intrigue point. Is what does Minnesota do to build

424
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: upon and not just start out seven to zero and

425
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: lose a couple late to you know, Iowa or whoever, Wisconsin.

426
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 1: What do they look like in terms of getting over

427
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: that November hump that to me or December hump as

428
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: it were this year, That to me is fascinating about Minnesota.

429
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, And as I said, Minnesota's Week one opponent is Michigan,

430
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 2: who is intriguing on a number of different fronts for me.

431
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 2: You know, we've been in this very weird kind of

432
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 2: whip saw state with Jim Harbaugh, where from year to

433
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,640
Speaker 2: year we expect different things. Now, expectations are always high

434
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 2: at Michigan. Last year was supposed to be the year

435
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 2: that if they were going to pull off that win

436
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 2: over Ohio State, it was going to happen. Well it didn't,

437
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 2: and so now we're in this COVID era where there's

438
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 2: a lot of turnover. We've got Dylan McCaffrey sitting out.

439
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 2: We've got an entire offensive line that needs to be rebooted.

440
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 2: We've got more turnover.

441
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: Than usual on the defensive side of the ball. I

442
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: love Big Joe Milton.

443
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: I love Big Joe Milton, six five and a half,

444
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 2: two thirty, A mountain of a man. He's huge, what

445
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 2: has all the throws? He can really spin it down right.

446
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just my intrigue point with Michigan is

447
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 2: how much they can rebuild, retool, re whatever, very quickly

448
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 2: in a weird pandemic state, get themselves together in time

449
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 2: for what should still be a pretty significantly difficult Big

450
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,719
Speaker 2: Tenie slate of games here. I have my doubts against Minnesota.

451
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 2: I have my doubts against some of the others on

452
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 2: their side of the conference as well. And it's probably

453
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 2: not fair to burden Jim Harbaugh with unrealistic expectations in

454
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 2: this year twenty twenty season, just because I do feel

455
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,360
Speaker 2: like Michigan's in a much different spot than we've seen

456
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 2: them over the last five years or so.

457
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 1: I would imagine Jim Harbaugh's expectations are higher than yours.

458
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 1: I'm sure they are. I'm sure they are, absolutely so yeah,

459
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 1: that to me feels right enough. The intrigu point is

460
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: Joe Milton. The intrigue point is Joe Milton. Even though

461
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: the Michigan defense has struggled in those games, you know,

462
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: last year against Wisconsin, the past couple years against Ohio State,

463
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: excellence at quarterback has escaped the Jim Harbaugh era at Michigan.

464
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: I know the last two thirds of the Jake Rudock

465
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: season were interesting. Interesting doesn't beat Ohio State. It just doesn't.

466
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: Excellence at quarterback beats Ohio State and covers for other issues.

467
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: That to me is the entrigue point from Michigan.

468
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 2: And look, I like Zach Sharboney. I think he was

469
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 2: great last year. I like Sean Haskins, I think he

470
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 2: sawid as well.

471
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 1: It helps real nice.

472
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: It helps to have that running game that you could

473
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 2: lean on. But without the line, with a new quarterback,

474
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 2: there's just too many variables on that offense to really

475
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 2: feel great about it. And again, as I said, I

476
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 2: trust the defense generally over the course of the season,

477
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:33,679
Speaker 2: but there is a little bit more turnover there than

478
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 2: I think we're used to.

479
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:39,359
Speaker 1: So entry moved to another Okay, can we move to

480
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: another beleaguered head coach.

481
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 2: Please Scott Frost, Scottie Scotti too hoty.

482
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 1: My hope for Nebraska is entertainment on one side of

483
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: the ball, like we saw glimpses of now a couple

484
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: of years ago, so I don't like looking too far

485
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: into the past. My intrigue point is if Adrian Martinez

486
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 1: is healthy, who is he throwing to? We know about

487
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: Wandelle Robinson. They lose JD Spielman. He transfers out kind

488
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: of late in the process. He goes to I think TCU,

489
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 1: who's catching Adrian Martinez passes? They have a JC guy.

490
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: I know they like a lot. They've got a couple

491
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 1: of recruits, I mean not recruits, but freshman younger players

492
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 1: that they like a lot. But Nebraska's first step towards

493
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 1: competitiveness ish in the Big Ten West. I have to

494
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 1: add a lot of issues to discussion of Nebraska football.

495
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 1: They have to be entertaining on offense. They have to

496
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: be a threat on offense. And I watched good Scott

497
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: Frost offenses at Oregon. We all watched good Scott Frost

498
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 1: offenses at UCF. The defense is going to be pushed

499
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 1: around once again. I like their secondary a little bit, actually,

500
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: but up front they're going to be pushed around a

501
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: little bit, and that happens, they're going to allow points.

502
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 1: They can't lose like they did to Minnesota. They can't

503
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: lose like they did to Ohio State. And even if

504
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: it's losing by twenty instead of thirty, that's something that's

505
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: something for it. Give me a half of competitive football,

506
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,880
Speaker 1: give me ount at halftime, twenty four to twenty. Yes,

507
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: you've given up twenty four points, but you're kind of

508
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: right there. That's my entry point for Nebraska is make

509
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 1: the scoreboard ops work a little bit, please, just please.

510
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 2: I am intrigued by Nebraska as well, and not even

511
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 2: so much within the context of this season. They got

512
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 2: a brutal, brutal Big Ten slate in front of them

513
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 2: this year.

514
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: I'm not even thirteen points against Northwestern last year. I know,

515
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: I know.

516
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,679
Speaker 2: And then they spoke up after some of the some

517
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 2: of the COVID decisions by the conference. Time will probably

518
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,959
Speaker 2: tell us whether or not this scheduling situation was intentional,

519
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 2: but they did draw a very tough slate. It will

520
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 2: not make Scott Frost's life any easier. I do think

521
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 2: that he is the right guy for the job. I

522
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 2: really do. I think if you're Nebraska, you're not going

523
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 2: to do much better than Scott Frost. So I think

524
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 2: you give them time. I hope they're patient with you.

525
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: You don't think Nebraska did better with Bo Polini, Well, no,

526
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: here do I do.

527
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 2: I think that to build this program back up from

528
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 2: where it's been okay. I think Scott Frost can get

529
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: them there and will get them there with the benefit

530
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 2: of time. I just hope that the patience is there

531
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 2: among the powers that be to give him that time

532
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,719
Speaker 2: to go and build this thing the right way, because

533
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 2: I do have a lot of faith in him as

534
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 2: a coach.

535
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: It's just going to take some time to get there.

536
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: It seems to me they need to win at least two,

537
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: probably three. I'm looking at their schedule. That's why I'm

538
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: looking down right now at Ohio State, Wisconsin, at Northwestern

539
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: Penn State Illinois. Okay, if they can go three and

540
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: two at home, if they can sneak by Northwestern Illinois

541
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 1: and Wisconsin, if Wisconsin's still sort of unsettled early on

542
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: at quarterback Grammartz isn't comfortable, Yeah, Yeah, that's encouraging. That's really,

543
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: even if they lose big to Ohio State and Penn

544
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: State whatever.

545
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 2: No.

546
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: Three and two is really really nice. I don't think

547
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: it's unreasonable given No, I don't think three, four or

548
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: five whatever it is now whatever it feels like? Yeah, right,

549
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: who do you want to go to? Is there another

550
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: beleaguered coach? Is there another offense? Is another offense that

551
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: needs a spark? Who is well for you? We didn't

552
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 1: talk about Ohio State yet?

553
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I don't know how we can go this

554
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 2: deep without talking to Ohio State. And the intrigue point

555
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 2: for me, I don't have a matchup, you know, I don't.

556
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 2: I don't have a thing with Ohio State. That's like, oh,

557
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 2: that's the that's the gotcha, that's the Achilles heel. I

558
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,959
Speaker 2: am intrigued by style points because keep in mind the

559
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 2: setting in.

560
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: Which the Big Ten is going to be playing these

561
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 1: football games.

562
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 2: All the other conferences outside of the Pac twelve obviously

563
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 2: have started up already have started planting their respective flags.

564
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 2: Clemson won a game by you know, sixty six odd points,

565
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 2: however many it was, and certainly Alabama has a few

566
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 2: big wins on its schedule at resume ready, Yeah, Ohio

567
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 2: State needs to come in late to the party and

568
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 2: prove itself. So you know, sure they've got turnover at

569
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 2: some spots and the secondary maybe we have questions about it,

570
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 2: but I think ultimately there's gonna be a pretty strong

571
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: impetus to score as many points as possible whenever possible,

572
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 2: and so I think that means big stats for justin

573
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 2: fields as we saw a year ago. I think that

574
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 2: means wherever they can possibly rip the arms and legs

575
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 2: off you, they're gonna do just that. The gap between

576
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,959
Speaker 2: Ohio State and I think the next closest team and

577
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 2: or teams in the Big Ten is whoever, it is

578
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: substantially wider than it was a year ago, and so

579
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: I just think they're going to run rough shot through

580
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 2: the conference. I think they're gonna score a ton of points,

581
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,440
Speaker 2: and I expect to see them not just holding up

582
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 2: that Big Ten trophy, but eventually making it into the

583
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 2: playoffs and really making a name for themselves.

584
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: So your intrigue point is murder potential. Murder potential.

585
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 2: They are college football's murder hornets this year.

586
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: Who is the team that they are least likely to murder?

587
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 1: Is that Penn State Week two in an empty Beaver Stadium.

588
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: I think so, I think so. Yeah.

589
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 2: I have a lot of confidence in Penn State. I

590
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 2: think the ceiling is pretty high. I think the floor

591
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 2: is pretty high because of their defense and what they've

592
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 2: got coming back on offense. Now, sure that being said,

593
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: my three points of concern for Penn State are a

594
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 2: a giving up big plays on defense, which is sort

595
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 2: of a byproduct of the defense that Brent Prye runs.

596
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 2: There's a risk reward element to it where big plays

597
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 2: are sometimes a thing that you get, so they need

598
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 2: to cut down on that obviously if they want to

599
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 2: beat a team like in Ohio State. They also lose

600
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 2: Micah Parsons. Micah Parsons opting out for twenty twenty. I

601
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 2: don't blame the kid. I think they've got enough depth

602
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,959
Speaker 2: without him to still play a really good branded defense,

603
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 2: but it hurts not to have him out there, So

604
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: how they replace that gap is of concern of interest

605
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 2: to me. I think they'll be okay, but again I'm

606
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 2: watching that intently and look on the offensive side, we

607
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 2: know about Journey Brown being out medical condition won't be

608
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 2: there for twenty twenty. I think they're fine from a

609
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 2: depth perspective. What I really care about is the passing game,

610
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 2: and especially about Sean Clifford finding targets out wide to

611
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 2: throw two new offensive coordinator friend, he doesn't know it,

612
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 2: but favorite of the solid verbal Kirk Shiraka.

613
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: I think his offense.

614
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 2: Is more streamlined, it's more simplified. He will find ways

615
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 2: to better utilize a guy like a Pat Fryarmuth. But

616
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 2: ultimately a lot rides on.

617
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: A lot of our stuff in Minnesota, for sure.

618
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: Absolutely a lot rides on whether or not Sean Clifford

619
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 2: can be better with the football and show up in

620
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 2: bigger spots than they did last year. So intrigued to

621
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 2: see his progression. But I don't think they're going to

622
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 2: get murdered by Ohio State.

623
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, not terribly concerned. But we saw what happened with

624
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: the Penn State offense last year, especially when they lost

625
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: Sean Clifford, who was himself not all that good against

626
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 1: Ohio State. This is this is an offense that can

627
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: go into a shell pretty quickly. So hopefully we don't

628
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: see that anymore in those big games for Penn State.

629
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Purdue. Let's talk about Purdue one, because

630
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 1: they have given Ohio State some trouble in recent years

631
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 1: to have that's right, they have. We're talking about the

632
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 1: Purdue boiler Makers and two we mentioned, you know, winter

633
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: wonders for Wisconsin. Purdue has those dudes out wide. I

634
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: think in Rondel Moore and you know you If Rondelle

635
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: Moore can do that against Ohio State during the regular season,

636
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,759
Speaker 1: I imagine he can do it against somebody later on

637
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: in the year, perhaps in December or January, if Purdue

638
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: ever makes it there. Purdue is fascinating to me because

639
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,959
Speaker 1: what do those two receivers, David Bell and Rondel Moore,

640
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: what do they do for that offense? This was an offense.

641
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: This was a Purdue team that was so beset by

642
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: injuries last year that just crushed their season. I don't

643
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,400
Speaker 1: love where they are on defense. They've still given up

644
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: too much and I don't think health fully solves everything.

645
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 1: But what can those two guys on offense do gravitationally

646
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: for Purdue? What can they do for I don't know

647
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 1: if it's going to be Plumber or Aidan O'Connell Jack Plumber,

648
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: Aid and O'Connell at quarterback, what can they do for

649
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 1: the running game? What can they do for each other,

650
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 1: What can they do for the middle of the field.

651
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: Because Purdue is another one of those teams that I

652
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 1: think they're ahead of Nebraska when healthy, just because of

653
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 1: they've proven it on the field. They've proven that they

654
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: can be competitive, They've proven that they can beat big teams.

655
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: It's just a week to week thing. What does that

656
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: gravitational consistency look like for that offense? To me, it's

657
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 1: fascinating Perdue. When they are healthy and fully operational and weaponized,

658
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:44,760
Speaker 1: they're a great watch that's weaponized. Purdue is not something. Yeah,

659
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: we've heard a whole lot drum. I don't know if

660
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: the big drum is going to be on the field

661
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: this year, but they do love the big drums somewhere

662
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: on that campus. They do.

663
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 2: And I love that Rondell Moore is playing. You know,

664
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 2: opted out initially, he's coming back down. Yeah, he's one

665
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 2: of one of the more exciting players in college football.

666
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: And it's cool that cool that.

667
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 2: We get to see him after all after a lot

668
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 2: of doubt.

669
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 1: Here. I want to talk about Northwestern.

670
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,839
Speaker 2: Because I know you're very close to Northwestern University. Now,

671
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 2: just geographically speaking, how do we feel about Northwestern. We

672
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 2: didn't feel great about them last year. Is there any

673
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 2: pulse in that Wildcat program?

674
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: That was a really nice thing. You just said we

675
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: didn't feel great because we did. They were terrible. Okay,

676
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 1: that's probably more accurate new offensive coordinators. The intrigued point

677
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 1: to me is Peyton Ramsey as a quarterback who I

678
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 1: think finished? Was he one of the best? Was he

679
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: top five Big Ten quarterback last year? Which automatically makes

680
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: him an even higher ranked quarterback in the Big Ten? Yeah?

681
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: Inner Morgan, justin fields, Jay Patterson. Maybe, I don't know,

682
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: Like the it fell up pretty quickly in the Big Ten.

683
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 1: Unbelieving Ramsey is. He's an accurate quarterback. I think he

684
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 1: completed sixty five percent of his passes against Big Ten teams.

685
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: He's efficient, he doesn't make a ton of mistakes. His

686
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: ceiling is not particularly high. But what does Northwestern need

687
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: at quarterback? If their defense is okay, Northwestern's down there

688
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 1: in the NFL prospect Rashaun Slater left tackle, so that

689
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: hurts them. What do they have in terms of game

690
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 1: changers on offense? It's not going to be a lot,

691
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: but that's not how they're going to win the offense

692
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,840
Speaker 1: is there to be relatively efficient and serve the defense,

693
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 1: which is fine. They won the division a couple of

694
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 1: years ago. If they get pretty good quarterback play, it

695
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: feels like they're forty times better than where they were

696
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: last year. Yeah, that to me is intriguing. If Peyton

697
00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,720
Speaker 1: Ramsey of twenty twenty looks like Peyton Ramsey of twenty nineteen.

698
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 1: I know it's a lot to ask with the issues

699
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 1: that have surrounded this Northwestern offense for years, but that

700
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: is raising the floor considerably from where it's been. Yeah, no,

701
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:50,359
Speaker 1: I'm with you.

702
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 2: And while we talk about floors, why don't we talk

703
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 2: about Maryland? Okay, let's you know, how like you see

704
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 2: in movies when somebody yells fire and everybody runs out

705
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 2: of the movie theater like a stampede. That was sort

706
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 2: of what happened at Maryland this offseason. They had just

707
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 2: an incredible number of guys run for the exits. It's

708
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,919
Speaker 2: not uncommon whenever you've got a new coaching regime taking over,

709
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 2: but it was pretty drastic. And so the intrigue point

710
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 2: for me on the Maryland side is not anything to

711
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 2: do with wins and losses. But we know Mike Loxley

712
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 2: knows the area. We've joked about that our fantasy things.

713
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:33,760
Speaker 1: Mike Axley knows the DMV.

714
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 2: He knows the DMV, and I do think that if

715
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,240
Speaker 2: given some time, he can build up an interesting roster

716
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 2: and move the program forward. It's not going to happen

717
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,240
Speaker 2: this year. My point of intrigue is at the quarterback position.

718
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 2: It's at the quarterback position because we've got on one hand,

719
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 2: Lance Lejon, my favorite Frenchman in all of college football.

720
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 2: Don't know if he's French, certainly sounds that way. He

721
00:38:58,600 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 2: was a four star recruit.

722
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: For a long New Orleans, so right he was.

723
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 2: He was a four star recruit in Locksley's first recruiting class,

724
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 2: and there is obviously a lot of excitement around him,

725
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 2: as well as Taliah Tongue of Ioloa Tonga.

726
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,320
Speaker 1: They have a Tonga I looa, they have a Tonga,

727
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 1: but they do have a.

728
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 2: Yeah Tua of course playing for the Miami Dolphins. The

729
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 2: younger brother, Talia is now playing with Mike Loxley, who

730
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 2: did coach older brother Tua for some period of time

731
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 2: before he left Alabama.

732
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,919
Speaker 1: So right now, at.

733
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 2: Time of recording, it's an either or situation on the

734
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 2: depth chart, it's either le Jean or tongue of Ia Looa.

735
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 2: We'll see who ends up getting more time. But that

736
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,839
Speaker 2: interplay between those two and how Locksley chooses to.

737
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: Deploy each is of particular interest to me. Okay, they god,

738
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 1: they give a fifty four points, seventy three points, thirty

739
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: eight fifty two. So yeah, I think the defense probably

740
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: has for the to go to be very obvious. But yeah, offensively,

741
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 1: there's talent there, there's speed there, there's recent talent in

742
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 1: speed there. Yeah, and so they brought in what a

743
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: blue chip receiver, a five star receiver this year. It's

744
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,919
Speaker 1: slowly but surely becoming intriguing. I don't know if it's

745
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 1: intriguing this week, next week, in the week after, but

746
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 1: there is some intrigue to College Park.

747
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 2: I would say I would agree. I would agree the

748
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 2: last team that I who do you have?

749
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,479
Speaker 1: The last team that I have disrespected somebody Michigan State,

750
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 1: maybe Michigan State. So Michigan State's in an incredibly weird situation.

751
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: Michigan State had their longtime head football coach Marked Antonio

752
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 1: resign abruptly on February the second of this very calendar year.

753
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: They move quickly. They probably overpaid.

754
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 2: A little bit to bring Meltucker up from Colorado, but

755
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 2: they got their guy, so mel Tucker. Mel Tucker takes

756
00:40:55,840 --> 00:41:00,520
Speaker 2: over in February, tries to get things go as quickly

757
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 2: as possible. We talked to their social media director on

758
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 2: one of our shows this offseason. But obviously there's this

759
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 2: whole pandemic thing on top of it. So, on top

760
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,200
Speaker 2: of the fact that there was a late coaching change,

761
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,000
Speaker 2: which is always brutal for a program, we now have

762
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 2: this very awkward quarantine period where teams just have not

763
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 2: been able to get out there and do their thing

764
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:25,400
Speaker 2: and learn the new system and mesh together and be

765
00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 2: one as a team. So that does not bode well

766
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,959
Speaker 2: for Michigan State, at least in the early going here

767
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 2: with regard to what are they going to do on

768
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,720
Speaker 2: the field, what's the output going to be? That being said,

769
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 2: I am very intrigued in this being stylistically a different

770
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 2: offense because for a long time it's been a lot

771
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 2: more points is that the new style, well, I just

772
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 2: think I just think the tempo that I expect to

773
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 2: see Jay Johnson comes along with mel Tucker from Colorado.

774
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 2: The results in year one were if he okay, but mixed.

775
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 2: There is a tempo component to the offense that I

776
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 2: think they want to run that we frankly have not

777
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 2: seen at Michigan State. So that contrast from what we've

778
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: seen in years past out of a D'Antonio offense, to

779
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 2: me is of particular intrigue here. I'm curious to see

780
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 2: some of the new faces in new spaces. Certainly Elijah

781
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 2: College had a great freshman year, almost rushing for one

782
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 2: thousand yards. To now see what they put around him,

783
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 2: and just the general tenor of that offense to me

784
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,280
Speaker 2: is pretty interesting.

785
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: For a team last year against Ohio State, Wisconsin, Penn State,

786
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: and Michigan they scored ten, zero, seven and ten points. No,

787
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 1: you're right, the entry point has to be offense. Just

788
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: because we can't watch another year this. No, it's impossible.

789
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: We cannot watch another year of Michigan State falling from

790
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,839
Speaker 1: playoff team from conference contender, not even just a vision

791
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: const a conference contender. They've won the Big Ten. They

792
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: forced Urban Meyer to eat crappy Papa John's pizza and

793
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,879
Speaker 1: a golf cart. Yeah, to where they've fallen. Offensively, they're

794
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: extremely efficient, not always flashy but extremely efficient at their

795
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 1: you know, the early twenty teams or whatever. I offense

796
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: is an intrigue. But if they can just rise to

797
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:17,839
Speaker 1: below average and then maintain some semblance of what their

798
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: defense has been, which has been all pretty impressive considering

799
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: what the offense hasn't been giving them, that's intriguing. That's intriguing.

800
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 1: Mel Tucker has a really good defensive reputation. There is talent,

801
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,839
Speaker 1: but if the talent has fallen off at Michigan State,

802
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see how well that offense can serve

803
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: the defense just by staying on the field. Just stay

804
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: on the field. Get get a field goal here, you know,

805
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:42,439
Speaker 1: give them rest, get three first downs on a drive

806
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: and then punt. That to me is the very base

807
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 1: level intrigue for Michigan State's offense. It's a low bar tie.

808
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: Did we cover all the teams? I believe so? Did

809
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: you cover all of your teams? You want to come

810
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,440
Speaker 1: it out and check it off. I've got Ohio.

811
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,919
Speaker 2: State, Penn State, Michigan, Indiana, Michigan State, Rutgers, and Marya.

812
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 1: I think we covered it. Yeah, I have Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Perdue,

813
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: Northwestern Illinois, we're a set. Do you have a big

814
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:11,720
Speaker 1: ten West runner up to Ohio State or perhaps somebody

815
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 1: who is going to win the conference that is not

816
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:13,879
Speaker 1: Ohio State.

817
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,959
Speaker 2: Ohio State is going to win the conference. Ohio State

818
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,280
Speaker 2: is far and away the best team in the conference.

819
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 2: I still think you got to go Wisconsin, but I'm

820
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 2: very intrigued by Minnesota. Minnesota, to me, is that team

821
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 2: that if they can get their defense together, there is

822
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 2: certainly more than enough firepower on that offense, especially with

823
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 2: Rashad Bateman now opting back in. You've got a highly

824
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,359
Speaker 2: efficient quarterback in ten Or Morgan, a good running game.

825
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,359
Speaker 2: There are enough pieces there that I think we can

826
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 2: rely on and count on that they are a formidable opponent,

827
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 2: formidable challenger to Wisconsin.

828
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 1: My big grower is Purdue. My big grower is Perdue.

829
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 1: My big faller might be Penn State. I could see it.

830
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 1: I could see it. I could see it. I think

831
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 1: the lack of obvious weapons, perhaps outside of your boy

832
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: baby Gronk on offense, and with Journey Brown now unable

833
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 1: to play this year, and defense losing their clear best player,

834
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 1: losing a couple pieces up front, Penn State has me

835
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 1: worried Penn State has me worried, just because I'm going

836
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: to need a substantial jump from Sean Clifford to feel

837
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 1: really good about them all season long. And I don't

838
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 1: know if I say it, that could be my foller.

839
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 2: What I like about Clifford, especially in the new system,

840
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 2: is that he brings a little bit more mobility than

841
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:45,360
Speaker 2: Tanner Morgan. And you know what Shiraka can do with

842
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 2: that mobility and especially having a big tight end that

843
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 2: that could be interesting with that offense. Did really have

844
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 2: that at Minnesota, So definitely a new dimension that he

845
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 2: can explore. But I think you're right, You're right to

846
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:03,360
Speaker 2: question Penn State eight. It does hurt to lose Micah Parsons.

847
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 2: But I will add that the defense does bring a

848
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 2: lot back.

849
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 1: So they've recruited and developed so well on defense. Yeah, yeah,

850
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,120
Speaker 1: it's yeah. The road schedule's nice at Nebraska and Michigan

851
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: at Ruckers, okay, and they obviously open at Indiana. But

852
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: I'm worried a little bit worried about the offense.

853
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 2: All right, Dan, I don't think I have a sound

854
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 2: As the uh big ten information dust is loaded into

855
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 2: our our capsule travel bag, I don't know what the

856
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 2: terminology is here, but.

857
00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: It's our toiletry bag, our toiletry, it's our space toiletry bag.

858
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah that I don't have a sound for it, but.

859
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 2: We do hope that everyone here enjoyed our commentary on

860
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,399

Speaker 2: and play them on Sunday.

883
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 1: That sounds like a plan to METI. I am excited

884
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: for this big ten season. I am hopeful that we

885
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 1: get all sorts of good football, maybe new football, maybe

886
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 1: teams stepping up that we were not expecting them to,

887
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,359
Speaker 1: maybe teams taking a step back but then coming back

888
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,279
Speaker 1: and looking better than we thought they were going to be.

889
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:17,400
Speaker 1: I'm hopeful for suspense, Ty, That's what I want. Suspense. Yeah.
