It's the Jason Smith 10 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: Show with my base friend Mike Harmon. Let's get it 11 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: on live from the Fox Sports Radio studios where I 12 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 1: tell you it looked like Michigan was thirty some odd 13 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: minutes away from Kaylin de Boor, and now they might 14 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: be thirty minutes away from Kenny Dillingham. That's how fast 15 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: it changes. A seventeen to nothing Oklahoma lead is a 16 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: with a block punt and a pick six, and we 17 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: are at halftime at seventeen a piece, with some curious 18 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: coaching and penalty flags being thrown at the end of 19 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: the first half. Mike, we are picking up where we 20 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: left off last night with the Rams and the Seahawks. Well, 21 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: that's just it, right. 22 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 2: I just thinking about it as that is replaying in 23 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 2: the studio as I'm watching it. Literally, the weird odd 24 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 2: disputed two point conversion play literally just got replayed on 25 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 2: this television. And when thinking about this first half, right, 26 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: you got the punter going and he drops the ball, 27 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: ends up in a block, you get the miscommunication with Matier, 28 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: ends up with a pick six. And then you mentioned 29 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: the coaching thing where we've got a penalty in the 30 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: final minute, Like when you're at youth soccer and they 31 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: tell you you got to get those umbrellas back off 32 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: the sideline. 33 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: I need my space, man, I need my space. 34 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: So we had a penalty there that gave Oklahoma, in theory, 35 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 2: a little bit of an extra chance. Nothing came of it, 36 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 2: but sir, there was a delay and a lot of 37 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: arguing and disputing, and but the fact that we have 38 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 2: a tie game at halftime, shocker. I came in in 39 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 2: seventeen nothing and I'm like this, get this looks like 40 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: it's getting ugly fast. 41 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're singing half, You're singing him, You're singing hell 42 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: to the victors at this point, and Calen de Bori's 43 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,399 Speaker 1: coach in the second half wearing a Michigan hat. Yeah, 44 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: let's go. I'm gonna be here after the game anyway. 45 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: Could they slip to impose one on his head in 46 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: the They got some wizards in the technical department there. 47 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: I thought it was real. It was really bad form 48 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: for At the halftime interview with Holly row And she 49 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: asked him, Hey, what do you think to do in 50 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: the second half? And he said it. She goes, thanks coaching, 51 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: he said, go blue at the end. I don't think 52 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: you needed to do to me. Come on, man, you 53 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 1: can't do you gotta just you know you're coaching Alabama. 54 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: You can't do that. And he did that smile where 55 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: you got the little gleam in his teeth right with 56 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: the wink. I mean that whole thing. 57 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 3: You know. 58 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: What's interesting is they also have a We were talking 59 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: about it a little bit last night, you and I. 60 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 2: The second broadcast ESPN two is the Oklahoma broadcast.

And when you get a big pick 71 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: six to tie this game up at seventeen at halftime, 72 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: you get to be the play of the day. 73 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 4: Bama putting eight men up initially now dropping. 74 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 5: Back a p a pick at the forty five to 75 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 5: the thirty, to the twenty, to the ten to the 76 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 5: five touchdown safe and Brown takes it to the house. 77 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,119 Speaker 5: BAMA changed its coverage and the Sooners throw. 78 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: It right to us. There was on the Battle Radio network. 79 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: Hey threw it. He's not wrong. I mean, that's why 80 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: he caught it on the sideline. They threw it right 81 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: to us, and I caught it and I handed it 82 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: to another guy that could actually run it back on 83 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: the field. They threw it right to it. 84 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: But also akin to what we saw last night in 85 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: that mutant Thursday night football game, remember Sam Darnold's second 86 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 2: pick when the defensive lineman just backed off and it's. 87 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: Like, hey, look what I found. 88 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 2: Same thing here, It's like he materid throws it thinking 89 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: he's got the out route. Nope, receivers going up, So 90 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 2: the defensive bags like thank you and start sprinting back 91 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 2: the other way. 92 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: Just absolute chaos, bedlam. The crowd shots. 93 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I wonder what song you pick as the 94 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 2: appropriate response to that, because they stayed on the crowd 95 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: for a good three minutes with all the shock and 96 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: fear suddenly taking over that stadium. 97 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: Now what you want to talk about? This crazy penalty 98 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: agains stuff you hardly ever, you know, I'm thinking back. 99 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: The last time I can think about something like this 100 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: was I think it was the what the ninety four 101 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: NFC champ game where the Cowboys were getting killed by 102 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: the forty nine ers and they were coming back and 103 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: they were forcing the Niners into a punt situation, and 104 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: Barry Switzer got some kind of crazy penalty for yelling 105 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: at a ref or running into a ref and it 106 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: gave the Niners a first down and they scored a 107 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: touchdown and the Cowboys didn't win. But near the end 108 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: of the first half, you had Alabama and Oklahoma again 109 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: tied at seventeen. Alabama looked like they were gonna get 110 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: the football back. They had forced a fourth down. They 111 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: called time out with twenty five seconds left on the clock. 112 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: They were gonna make Oklahoma punnet again because you know, 113 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: when you get a block punt, you're gonna make that 114 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: team punnet as many times a can. And the rest 115 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: of the game except the flag goes on the field 116 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: and you see Kitlin de Bord just lose it because 117 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 1: the penalty is sideline interference. Somehow someone ran into a 118 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: referee and you're wondering, okay, what the hell happened, And 119 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: you know Chris Fowler and Kirkirbstreet to say, we're gonna 120 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: get it for You're gonna get it for you. It 121 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: is forty yards downfield, right, And I'm glad you mentioned 122 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: the game last night because this plays into something big 123 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: in sports the last couple of day. So forty yards downfield, 124 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: the official is backing up on the sideline. He's in 125 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: his territory and he backs into someone on the sideline 126 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 1: and the flag goes up right away, fifteen yard penalty. 127 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: And Oklahoma has a chance now with twenty two seconds 128 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: to go, because they're near midfield. Maybe they get in 129 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 1: field goal range. Now they didn't wind up getting into 130 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: field goal range. We'll get to that. But here's a 131 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: penalty sideline interference that is called. And they showed the 132 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: replay and you see the official he's backing away, backing 133 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: away and he runs into a guy. Now he's forty 134 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: yards away from the play, and this is a non call. 135 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: This is a non call. But this gets into why 136 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: when Puka Nakua says refs are human after all, right, 137 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: they just want to be on TV. They want they want, 138 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: you know, they're texting their buddies to show hey, this 139 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: is why. You know, look at me. I just called 140 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: a penalty here. We told you the other night. It's 141 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: not about the referees want to be on TV. But 142 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: the referees want to put their impart, their will on 143 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: the game. They want to be heard, they want to 144 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: be a voice. Referees sometimes come out there like the 145 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: two teams on the field. No, there's three teams. It's 146 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: the two teams playing and there's us. And I tell 147 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: it from every from every youth coach game that I could. 148 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: Referees and and umpires want to be a part of it. 149 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: And and they they want to put their stamp on 150 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: the game. And this is what Pukinakua means when he 151 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: says refs are human. This is a referee backing down 152 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: the field runs into a guy, doesn't get knocked down, 153 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: you know, gets knocked off his off his balance a 154 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: little bit, but he stands up and he throws that 155 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: flag up in the air like ah no, I don't 156 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: know if he warned the sideline before now, but this 157 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: is something where you know what, you kind of walk 158 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: away from this, but the guy got emotional and he 159 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: wanted to be wanted to punish the sideline for this, 160 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: so I threw the flag. And now potentially it could 161 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: have been a three point swing or more, and you 162 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: could tilt the power of the game because you got 163 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: mad that you ran into somebody on the sideline. Now 164 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to, right, and they should be out 165 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: of the way. And you saw the referees when they 166 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: talked about it in the in the booth and and 167 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: and uh, hey listen, that's the referees area. Now I 168 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: understand that. I get that it's forty yards downfield. It's 169 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: a mistake. The referee didn't get injured. He decided to 170 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: get emotional, So I'm throwing the flag. This is where 171 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: I'm completely on board with Pookinakoua when he says referees 172 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: want to do certain things, why they call certain penalties. 173 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: They're human, after all. That was an emotional decision at 174 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: the refmade, and it's easily a thing that you could 175 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: just say, hey, listen, final warning, warning, whatever it is 176 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: you tell the coach that happens again, it's a fifteen 177 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: yard penalty. Again. I don't know what's going on. You know, 178 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: on the if this has happened before earlier in the 179 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: game and the referee warned them. But this is the 180 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: college football player. If you have forty yards downfield, man, 181 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: nobody came to the game to watch you throw that flag. 182 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: But yet I want to be part of it. I 183 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: want to throw a flag and I want people to 184 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: know what that guy because I was embarrassed because I'm 185 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: doing my job and I run into somebody. I'm going 186 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: to be a highlight and people were laughing at me 187 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: behind my back, and I heard the sideline laughing because 188 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: I ran into the guy. So yeah, so I'm gonna 189 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: throw a flag. You gotta be better than that. You 190 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: have to be one hundred percent better than that. That's 191 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: a non flag throw. But yet here the officials, this's white. 192 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: Pokinakua said it, and I can't disagree with him. 193 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just wonder if there had been a warning, 194 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 2: and we never really got clarity in that regard as 195 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 2: the the broadcast was going forward. Right, Uh, but we 196 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: have the incidents, uh and the rules analyst as he 197 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 2: got impassioned about it. You've endangered me. You've endangered me 198 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: by being on the sideline, which I don't think he's wrong. 199 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: I mean, because what if the guy takes a false step, 200 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, Hey, we're we're down a 201 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: sideline ref because he took a you know, took an 202 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: a c L because of a bad plant. 203 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean I I got a side 204 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: with the referee on this one. 205 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 2: As long as you look at player haters, you've gone 206 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 2: through the protocols. Again, we're wondering about the warning, right, 207 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 2: you had a sideline warning. 208 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: I still think with the warnings, you could have not 209 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: thrown the flag on that. It's not about you, it's 210 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: it didn't affect the play. It didn't affect It wasn't 211 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: done maliciously, it wasn't done where the guy put his 212 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: foot out. Hey, watch it's some of the trip the 213 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 1: guy going down the field. It's one of those. It's 214 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: a big sideline. Pay attention away, pay attention to where 215 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: you are. You gotta knowles, Yeah, no, I get it. 216 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: But okay, so you think that was worth it that 217 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: if if that's the three points that decides the game, 218 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: that's worth it for that, for that penalty throne, Well, 219 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: I can't, I can't. I can't officiate that way. That's 220 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,199 Speaker 1: not the way it's supposed to be officiated. No, no, 221 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: it's not everything. 222 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no no, but I try to know. 223 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 2: But you're not doing that as an official. You shouldn't 224 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: be saying is this going to affect the game out 225 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 2: final outcome. 226 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: Of the game. It's either a penalty or it's not. Yeah, 227 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: I don't think that's a side. It's not. That's fine, 228 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: but by the letter of the law, it's a penalty. Well, 229 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: you go to throw the flag anytime a guy goes down, 230 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: and if there's a guy near him could say I'm 231 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: throwing a flag. You were in my way, creeping up 232 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: on the sideline because he wants a better vantage point. 233 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: You know, go and buy a ticket in the fifth row. 234 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 1: Look at that referees are not going to call in 235 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 1: into the show and say we love you, my just 236 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: so you know, I don't know the reason you're not 237 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: going to do that. 238 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 2: All I'm saying is you've got to pay attention if 239 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 2: you see the guy backtenal and get the hell out 240 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: of the way. Otherwise potentially there is chaos. And I 241 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 2: get it, it's forty yards downfield. They didn't throw a 242 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 2: forty yard pass. But in the end, look, no harm, 243 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 2: no foul. But it's certain because right they get nothing 244 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 2: out of it that they get the extra twenty five 245 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 2: seconds runs off because they had no timeouts left and they. 246 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: Called a bad play. 247 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 2: How about calling the bad play where guy's got no 248 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 2: chance of getting out of balance? How about we yell 249 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 2: at the coaching staff for that. 250 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Well we'll get to that in a second. But I 251 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: just want you. I want to add because this is 252 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: if you're if you're trying to get into the NFL 253 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: officiating program or a collegeable fan, I'll write you a 254 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: letter of recommendation if you want it. Because I could 255 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: see you in the jaunty hat striped outfit call. I 256 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: could see you out there running up and down the field. 257 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 1: No trying to do that to get in No, I 258 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: will my knees would not take that. I'd be that 259 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: slow guy. 260 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: Why, Like that just hurts okay, like even even the 261 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 2: last couple of days, like my body ain't felt right. 262 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 2: I'm not sick, but like everything's sore. 263 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 1: And you'd have to be the replay official. You'd be 264 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: the red I could be the rules analysts, like, Hey, 265 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: that dope's got to get out of the way. Wait, wait, wait, 266 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: that's my sideline. Get out of the way, sir. We 267 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: don't call players on the other team dopes. That's not something. 268 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: I don't care he was a dope. I don't give 269 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: a crap. 270 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 2: I would be equal when calling both sides dopes if 271 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: they did something to affect the integrity and sanctity of 272 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 2: the game and put my officiating crew in danger. 273 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: Mike Harmon standing up for the referees here, somebody's got 274 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,679 Speaker 1: to Uh. Now, you bring up the other part of 275 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: this is it didn't turn into any any points because Oklahoma, 276 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: you talked about the play call. They don't get out 277 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: of bounds, they have the ball at midfield, they have 278 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: a chance to throw a hail Mary. They are they 279 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: could they had a time out or whatever you want 280 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: to do. If you want to call time out right 281 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: away and try to throw a quick five yard out 282 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 1: so you can get your kicker out there, and instead 283 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: they just let the time go to halftime. I felt 284 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: like I'm watching Aaron Glenn coach this game, like he's 285 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 1: the guy not throwing hail mary's in the first half 286 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: of the season for the Jets. When yeah, we got 287 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: the ball at midfield, final play the first half, let's 288 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: just go to halftime. Let's not take a chance to score. 289 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 1: Might not that you weren't good to score, but you 290 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,719 Speaker 1: know what, you got the ball at midfield, throw it 291 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 1: up at half to try to get points there. What 292 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: are you doing. You're doing the other team a favor. 293 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: Oh you're just gonna go to halftime. Great, Hey, we're 294 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: happy with that. Call time out, throw a hail mary 295 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: or call a time out, try to throw something really 296 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: quick that takes like three seconds, but games of five 297 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 1: yards off the sideline. And it said it was now 298 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: we're going to half time. You got the guy coming 299 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,599 Speaker 1: out in his short pants, big left left leg. He 300 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: just won the girls or award. Come on, sand Down, 301 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: didn't even get a chance. I doubt at the end 302 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: was back like that was worse to me than the 303 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: official calling the penalty. 304 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 2: I mean that was like that face that made sense. Okay, 305 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 2: by the letter of the law, that's a foul. This 306 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 2: is just coaching malfees is at the end of a half. 307 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: How are you not screaming on the sideline, Hey, let's 308 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 2: let's call time out. Hey, let's call time out, coach, 309 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 2: coach time out? How does nobody calls even in the booth, 310 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: They're like they're letting the clock run. Like there was 311 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 2: just these pauses as they're going back and forth. I 312 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 2: was waiting for the picture and picture of the two 313 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 2: of them looking at each other with their arms stretched 314 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 2: out as if to say, what the hell are we 315 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 2: watching here? 316 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean are there are there some analytics I 317 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: don't know about that says throwing a hail mary at 318 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: the end of the first half is not the right thing. 319 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the only thing football karma. 320 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know that it's a direct disney 321 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: that you could both like the teams that execute. 322 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: A hail mary at the end of a half go 323 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: on to lose most of the I don't know. I 324 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: realized there's got to be some kind of analytics thing 325 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: that I just thought, Oh yeah, yeah, so that this 326 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: is why we don't throw hail Mary's at the end 327 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: of the first half. The analytics say that your percentage 328 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: of winning goes down. Oh really it does. Yeah, because 329 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: potentially if you get a touchdown, that would just upset 330 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: the other team and they would come out in the 331 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: second half with more energy. So yeah, we've done that, 332 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: look and saw that that's actually happened. Like I don't understand, 333 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: I'd be really. 334 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, the curiosities of the college football bowl season with. 335 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: A coaching job potentially on the line, I mean, there's 336 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: so much to it. It's great. Man, What a Friday 337 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: night Oklahoma could be a little at Michigan could be 338 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: less than thirty minutes away from Kaylin de Borr or 339 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: Kenny Dillingham. Guys, a lot of interested people watching this game. 340 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: Early in the third seventeen seventeen, Oklahoma has just failed 341 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: to convert on third and six. They'll be punting in 342 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: theory to Alabama because we know Oklahoma's had some trouble. 343 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: A catchable ball is dropped in the middle field, a 344 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: little bit behind the receiver but still should have been caught, 345 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: should have been a first down. So Alabama getting the 346 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: football back in a game where it looked like they 347 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: were absolutely dead and buried seventeen. Nothing shocking their comeback here. 348 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: But then again, remember both of these teams, neither their 349 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: offenses have played well the last few weeks. They kind 350 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: of been a couple of teams that may be a 351 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: little bit on vapors. But we're getting an entertaining game. 352 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,359 Speaker 1: We thought we could have seen something that was completely 353 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: a blowout. Instead we got a seventeen to seventeen game. Now, 354 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: early in the third quarter. 355 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 2: You danced right up along the line of neither team 356 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 2: should be here. I can hear that trailing as you said. 357 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: That's oh man.

When they list 432 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 3: eighteen guys, it's because the coach is fat up with 433 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 3: a reporter asking any questions.

He used to 438 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: do that a long time ago, like nine to twenty 439 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: five people on the injured list because somebody pissed them off. 440 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, it's. 441 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 2: Also look for and Ben Johnson and either they love 442 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: each other or they hate each other.

They're 458 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 3: not making calls because they just want to get on television. 459 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 3: That's not what it is. I mean, I just you know, 460 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 3: there's some stuff that I don't believe. Yeah, are some 461 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 3: of those guys like trying to get the next TV gig? Maybe, 462 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 3: But I you know, I just don't see that. That's 463 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 3: not what I think guys are just they're legitimately trying 464 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 3: to do their job, and it's a complex job that 465 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 3: the league continues to make harder and harder. And the 466 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 3: worst thing that the league does is they make those 467 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,959 Speaker 3: guys think way too much. And that's why you get 468 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 3: really bad efficient because they think too much instead of 469 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 3: just react to make calls. So enough of that. The 470 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 3: Pooka thing just doesn't really impress me. It's taking shots. 471 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 3: It's taking shots at people who are, for the most part, 472 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 3: trying their best and have an impossible job. That's that's 473 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 3: what he's doing. And it's also it's so easy to 474 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 3: take shots at officials like that. That's like shooting fish 475 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 3: in a barrel, like, Oh, I'm going to really go 476 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 3: out on a limb and I'm going to criticize officials. 477 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 3: Congratulations fifty you've done with every guy watching a television 478 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 3: on Sunday does eighty five times when he goes on Twitter. Yeah, 479 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 3: you're a big man. Congratulations dude. 480 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 1: That's like when you see in the magazine's stars, they're 481 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: just like us. Look, they pump their own gas, they 482 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: go to Costco. They're just like, hey, Pookas can just 483 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: like I can criticize the official. It's what he's doing. 484 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,440 Speaker 3: Yeah exactly. 485 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 6: I mean. 486 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 3: I'm not impressed by that criticism. I mean, I you know, 487 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 3: I know why he's getting a lot of attention for it, 488 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: but that cratism doesn't impress me. Like, if you want 489 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 3: to come up with a criticism of how the league 490 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 3: handles officiating, and you want to say we made the 491 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 3: job way too complex and we were begging for inconsistent 492 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 3: officiating because of the way that the NFL does ask 493 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 3: those guys to do their job, I'm all ears, but 494 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 3: just you know, like ripping guys because you think they 495 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 3: want to get on television. Now, I'm not buying that. Sorry, 496 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 3: that's that's that's old hat. You know, that's that's not 497 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 3: that's not thoughtful analysis. So but whatever, he's a d player. 498 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 3: I like watching them play. 499 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 2: Only a twenty five thousand dollars Fine, so yeah, let's 500 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 2: let's I can't wait to follow more football players this 501 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 2: weekend on Twitter. 502 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: But as a game. 503 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 2: I mean, Matthew Stafford and Sam Donald put on a 504 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 2: show that was pretty awesome. 505 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 3: I got one. Are the odds of hitting three straight 506 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 3: two pointers? YEA like to pull that out. And that's 507 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 3: why I don't congratulations and see the Seattles right, and 508 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 3: hell of a win, way to come back, way to 509 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 3: stay in it. But if you walk away from that game, 510 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 3: if you're a Seattle fan saying, oh, we're clearly better 511 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 3: than the Rams, no you're really not, because for basically, 512 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 3: for the better part of fifty to fifty two to 513 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 3: fifty five minutes, they dominated you pretty well, and then 514 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 3: all of a sudden things you know, you get the 515 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 3: punt returns, you get you know, you know, you get 516 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 3: a four and out, you know, three and out really 517 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:46,959 Speaker 3: quick quick. That's great, but you know you didn't. I mean, 518 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 3: the odds of what you just did to win that 519 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 3: game are so long that that's like the one out 520 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 3: of twenty times. You know, if you play that game 521 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 3: in that circums fans and play at twenty different times, 522 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 3: there's one of those games, maybe even less that the 523 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 3: Seattle wins. And that's the one that happened last night. 524 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 3: So he gratulations is great. Victory. Yes, they're in first place. 525 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 3: If they out play again, I'm picking the Rams, and 526 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 3: I'm picking the Rams, probably by ten points. 527 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: NFL insider Jason Colar, guest Jason Smith, Mike Carmon lot 528 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: from the Fox Sports Radio studios. All right, he usually 529 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: does this for me, so I'll do it for him. 530 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: Is my partner in crime Mike Harmon going to be 531 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 1: happy tomorrow night after the Packers Bears game? Or is 532 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: he going to be unhappy after the Packers Bears game. 533 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 3: I think it's similar to Dan Campbell if he wins 534 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 3: the division and he just runs naked down eight mile. 535 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 3: I think Harmon. Harmon led the Miracle Mile in Los Angeles, 536 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 3: And I mean he's not the first guy who'd run. 537 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,360 Speaker 1: Down the mirror't stand out here. It's not the first 538 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: guy to know you were not that probably it's not original. 539 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 3: But if you ran all the way from there to 540 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 3: the Santa Monica Peer naked would be quite something. Although 541 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 3: you you definitely get arrested, but yeah, like you know, 542 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 3: the cops might catch you somewhere along the line on 543 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 3: that one. And even in Los Angeles. No, yeah, I'm 544 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 3: going I'm going Miracle Mile naked naked run down miracle mile. 545 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 3: That's why I'm betting on that tomorrow. That's that's that's 546 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 3: that's what I think is going to happen. I think 547 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 3: that in Vegas odds should be on Arman running naked 548 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 3: down miracle mile. 549 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: There we go, Harmon, you got to do it now 550 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: because Jason Cole said the Bear's windomorrow night, naked down 551 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: miracle mile. 552 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I like. I like the Bears in a regular 553 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 3: season situation where scoring is going to be up and 554 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 3: defense is not. Yeah, defense is not as emphasized as 555 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 3: a lot to emphasize during the playoffs, right and now 556 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: with Micah out, there's not really anybody on that defensive 557 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 3: line who you think can really chase Cale up down 558 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 3: and make it hard for him. The problem I have 559 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 3: with the Bears when he's talking to the playoffs and 560 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 3: this is this for this year and we'll see, if 561 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 3: you know, if Caleb gets it more under control of 562 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 3: you as he goes forar with Ben Johnson, there is 563 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 3: still that element of degree of difficulty that Caleb Williams 564 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 3: plays within. It's sort of like the guy who's, you know, 565 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 3: like on the high dive and he says he's going 566 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 3: to do what like fifteen twists before he falls into 567 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 3: the pool and stuff like that. Like Caleb wants still 568 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 3: wants to play that game at a critical moment, and 569 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 3: he's good at it right, Like when when he's you know, 570 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 3: running full speed to his right, you know, whatever the 571 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 3: closest you can get to full speed, writing goes right 572 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 3: and then firing back down field, like that's really a 573 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 3: breathtaking throat that's really fun to watch. And even when 574 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 3: he throws his left, he's talk what Aaron Rodgers going 575 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 3: to his left or even you know, Justin Herbert going 576 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 3: to his left. But he's pretty good right so, you know, 577 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 3: he's good at making the act badic I flying you know, 578 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: trap youth artist throw. The problem is that he's in 579 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 3: love with making that throw still a little too much 580 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 3: for my liking. In a playoff game against a good 581 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 3: team with a good defense that will say, okay, we'll 582 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 3: allow you to keep trying to do that, and either 583 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 3: you're not going to be able to make the play 584 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 3: because we're we're better at playing defense here, or you're 585 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 3: going to make a mistake and we'll capitalize on it. 586 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 3: That's that's where I am with the Bears when you 587 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 3: talk about playoffs. 588 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: He's on Twitter at Jason Cole sixty two. That's at 589 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: Jason Cole sixty two. He is the one responsible for 590 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 1: potentially losing a naked Miracle Mile Harmon on the public 591 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: Tomorrow night. 592 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 3: No Harmon, do it, Harmon, do it. 593 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: Let's go good, Jake.

He's a 596 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: happy Mike Harmon Tomorrow Night, Naked on Miracle Mile, Jason 597 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: call a big update from Alabama and oklahom right now. 598 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 1: Steve Desager is going to give you more details coming 599 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: up in a second, and what's trending. But that is 600 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: the We just saw the third drop on this drive 601 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: by an Alabama receiver. They are forced to kick a 602 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: field goal. Not only that, Ty Simpson just got hit 603 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: late on a throw that probably should have been a 604 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: fifteen yard penalty. But the flag is not thrown, even 605 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: the officials looking right at it. So many times Alabama 606 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: could have had a first down and maybe another touchdown. Instead, 607 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: it's a field goal attempt for Alabama to try to 608 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: make this a ten point lead. Steve de Sager has 609 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: the result of this field goaling more right now, with 610 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: what's trending. 611 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 7: We've got about four and a half minutes to go 612 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 7: in this opener of the college football playoff, field goal 613 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 7: is straight down the middle. Good, and so it's twenty 614 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 7: seven to seventeen. Number nine Alabama leads at number eight Oklahoma, 615 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 7: a notable come since the Sooners were up seventeen nothing 616 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 7: early in the second quarter and at the time, oh 617 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 7: you had the yardage advantage of one eighty one to twelve. 618 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 7: Alabama had no first downs at the time, three straight 619 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 7: three and outs, and yet they came back to tie 620 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 7: it at the half and now have extended the lead 621 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 7: to twenty seven to seventeen, just over two hundred yards 622 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 7: of offense. Finally, four the visiting Crimson tied to forty 623 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 7: for Oklahoma, obviously, most of that in the first quarter 624 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 7: and a half.

Ye, we are headed to the fourth 679 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: quarter the first playoff game, first round. It has been 680 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: all Alabama since Oklahoma took a seventeen to nothing lead 681 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: twenty seven unanswered points. And Oklahoma has a lot of 682 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: work to do if they're gonna get back into this game, 683 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: because really they have had nothing going on since that 684 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: block punt in the first half that really gave Alabama life. 685 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: They could converted, they converted, they got a touchdown, they 686 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: get a field goal, they get the pick six, and 687 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, a game that Oklahoma was dominant, 688 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: Alabama's right back in it, and they picked up with 689 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 1: that momentum in the third quarter outscoring Oklahoma ten. Nothing 690 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: is everything is Crimson time right now. Mike Carmen and 691 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: to the third. 692 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 2: It's second and ten from the ou forty eight. So 693 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 2: starting to move the ball a little bit, Materier taking 694 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 2: to the to the ground a little bit, trying to 695 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 2: get some yardage, get things moving. We know they got 696 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: a big leg kicker that can get you know, once 697 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,879 Speaker 2: you're in range, you've got a wide berth there. But yeah, 698 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 2: certainly for Alabama, I mean it's tail two games. Like 699 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 2: I said, you know, at the outset coming in, it 700 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 2: looked like Oklahoma was gonna have this in a runaway 701 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 2: and just like that, it shifted on a dime and 702 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 2: it never stopped. Right, my old most started rolling like 703 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 2: Dante Culpepper all those years ago when he and Randy 704 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 2: Moss had things cooking. He'd do that little thing with 705 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 2: his arms and start mocking opponents. How that was never 706 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 2: a penalty, I don't know, different times in the NFL 707 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 2: back then, my friend. Because now it's celebration time and 708 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 2: the Tide are rolling, we'll have more of. 709 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: This game coming up in about ten minutes. Again, we're 710 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: headed to the fourth quarter, Alabama with a ten point 711 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: lead over Oklahoma. But big football Friday, big games in 712 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: the NFL to preview, and look, let's kick things off 713 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 1: with a team that is on a season ending heater, 714 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: and by that I mean they are on a heater 715 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: of ending team seasons. On Sunday, the Chargers, who are 716 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: about ending seasons because they ended the Chief season last week. 717 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: They will end Dallas's season. Officially, the Chargers have shown 718 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: we can win thrown it around, we can win a tight, physical, 719 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: nail bier. But this game with Dallas and their defense, 720 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: this is more old school Chargers with big scores. Lad 721 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: McConkie will come up big. The Charger defense is terrific. Look, 722 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: we've been your Dallas whisperer all year long. We told you, hey, 723 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 1: don't count them out because their offense is really dangerous. 724 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 1: I didn't think the offense would be this dangerous throughout 725 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: the season, but it was. But really, this is kind 726 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: of what it is. They tantalized, they showed you that 727 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 1: maybe we can be a little bit better, and just 728 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: when they had to prove it, after the deadline, they 729 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: make trades to get Quentnin Williams. Yeah, they fail and 730 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: they fall off the pace and now they're this close 731 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: to being knocked out. Another season for the Cowboys. That 732 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: ends just like almost every other one. They show you 733 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: that they can score points, they tantalize you, but when 734 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: it comes down to it, they fail. I know we're 735 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: thinking about the Chargers. Oh, it's on the road. The 736 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: Chargers are terrific. They travel well. The defense travels well. 737 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: They beat the Cowboys this weekend. 738 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, again, their offense scoring up points. That's the question. 739 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 2: I expect greatness from Minter's defense. Cowboys still a two 740 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 2: and a half point favorite in this one, justin Herbert. 741 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 2: As much as we talk about GrITT and Moxie and 742 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 2: all those fun words, they're not putting up a lot 743 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 2: of points. That's the one thing I fear. If it 744 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 2: does open up a little bit and they get into 745 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 2: a shootout, can they actually play in that style? 746 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,240 Speaker 1: Well, the Cowboys defense, enter the Cowboys defense. Mike Carmon, 747 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: heytruggling to the Cowboys. Well, but that's the thing, right. 748 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 2: I did the Eyewatch Flex podcast ian Roddy Dan Byron 749 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 2: to myself and I had mcakey and I said, well, 750 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 2: here's the first time in a while that we've had 751 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,919 Speaker 2: to endorse him because he's been invisible the last month. 752 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,240 Speaker 2: But you got the two headed monster out of the backfield, 753 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 2: Herbert making plays with his legs. Yeah, I think the 754 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 2: Chargers win this. And it's all on the leg of Dicker, 755 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 2: the kicker he versus Aubrey. That's your battle. Let's just 756 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:17,280 Speaker 2: settle it with kickers. 757 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: Elsewhere, just like we all drew it up. The Jaguars 758 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: on the Broncos are a big game this weekend. Come on, playoffs. 759 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: People are complaining with this is scheduled. Man really didn't 760 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: get a flex. It doesn't seem but this is what 761 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: it is. And I'm gonna say this, slow your role 762 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: on Jacksonville and Trevor Lawrence. Right, reality is here. The 763 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: Denver defense is not gonna be what it is going 764 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: up against the Jets defense, which basically I don't think 765 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: practiced all week. Last week they were embarrassing Trevor Lawrence 766 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 1: and the Jaguars at whatever they wanted to. Again, you 767 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: can't base success on how you did against the Jets. 768 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: You can't do it. It's just a game. It happened, 769 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 1: it's what you did. But we can't just say wow 770 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 1: the Jeta. More importantly of this, right, you have Denver's 771 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: defense top five defense in the NFL. Bow Knicks, who 772 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: I said last week he's gonna have his biggest game 773 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: of the year against the Packers, and he did. That's 774 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: the most dangerous thing for anybody in the NFL, especially 775 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 1: the AFC, that Bo Nicks is going to get past 776 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: that game manager mode, the bit of a downtick he 777 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: took from as good as he was last year too, 778 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: he hasn't quite been the same dynamic guy. But I 779 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: said last week he was gonna have his biggest game 780 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 1: of the year against the Packers, whose defense is not bad. 781 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: He was. That's the big thing. Even with running back injuries, 782 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Denver lights up the scoreboard again. They 783 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 1: win big. I like the over in this game, but 784 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:42,839 Speaker 1: I like Denver by double digit. 785 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 2: Something's gotta give right two huge winning streaks. Forty seven 786 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 2: your total, Denver three and a half point favorites. I'm 787 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 2: going to take Trevor Lawrence in company to go in 788 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 2: and get a victory. 789 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: Of course you are, because you all of a sudden 790 00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: are blinded by Trevor Lawrence and his un legal performance 791 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: against the Jets and everybody hugging yes next to you, 792 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: and I could get six touchdowns against. 793 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,800 Speaker 2: The wood They've played a bunch of in the boxing parlance, 794 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 2: since we do have that boxing exhibition going on tonight 795 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 2: as well, a bunch of tomato cans, and a Indianapolis 796 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 2: team that's falling apart. You look at Tennessee Arizona. They 797 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 2: lost to Houston. They did beat the Chargers and bludging 798 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 2: them right the run game. They absolutely ran through them 799 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 2: back at the in the middle of November, a win 800 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 2: over the Raiders. So, uh, you got some some cream 801 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 2: puffs if we want to go down that road on 802 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 2: the relative basis in the National Football League, But this 803 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 2: is one where the rubber meets the road. Lawrence and 804 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 2: Nicks getting after it, looking for etn to have himself 805 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 2: another big day out of the backfield, keep him guessing. 806 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 2: And look, they just extended Jacoby Myers, so he's got 807 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 2: to be good for something. Brian Thomas looking more like 808 00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 2: his rookie self. So yeah, let's go, Trevor Lawrence. Here's 809 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 2: your prove it moment. 810 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 1: You're buying it. You're buying into the hype that goes 811 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 1: along with beating the Jets. Hey, you still haven't apologized 812 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: to Sam Darnold for last time. I apologize to Trevor Lawrence. 813 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: I don't need to apologize to Trevor Lawrence. He's just 814 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,399 Speaker 1: a guy. He's just a guy again. It will be more, 815 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 1: it'll be Oh so, this is what a defense in 816 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: the NFL that's actually trying at the end of the 817 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: season looks like, Oh it's boy. It's a lot more 818 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: difficult than Teina just rolled over like the Jets did 819 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: last week. Oh man, this is tough. Uh So, we 820 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: got more NFL on the way and more of our 821 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: big college football picks of the playoffs. Who's gonna be 822 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: the big star of the first round of the college 823 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: football playoff? We'll tell you next right here, Jason and 824 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: Mike Fox
