1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal ull that for me, I'm

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty.

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 2: I've heard so many players say, well, I want to

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 2: be happy. You want to be happy for dake Edo steak.

5
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 1: Is that whoo whoom? And then and tie, Dan Rubinstein,

6
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 1: it's about to be week eight, which means only a

7
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 1: limited number of weeks left in the season. We've got

8
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: big conference matchups that are on the horizon. Hello, welcome,

9
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: We're excited. Today we're going to talk about the games

10
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: that you need to circle on your schedule. Dan, how

11
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: are you well.

12
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,880
Speaker 2: I'm better than I was Saturday afternoon, but I'm good.

13
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 3: Ty.

14
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: This is okay.

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 2: So we're mid October, so I don't know if it's

16
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: officially the halfway point. Some teams have played six, some

17
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 2: teams have played seven, some teams are about to take

18
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 2: a bye. We get all even out, but we're sort

19
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 2: of ish at the halfway point. So we're staring down

20
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: the meat, the straightaway tie of this schedule, as games

21
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: seem to loom larger because we kind of have an

22
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 2: idea what teams are or are not other than Michigan.

23
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: I think the only.

24
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,119
Speaker 2: Team truly that hasn't played I don't want to harp

25
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: on this some more because I went through a whole

26
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: roast on our campfire episode.

27
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: Are they?

28
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: Are they the team that is in the mix that

29
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: we know the clear least about.

30
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: I think so, Yeah, I think so too. I don't

31
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: even think it's close. Yeah, I mean you made a

32
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: whole roast about it. As you said, you can go

33
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: back and listen to the week seven Campfire episode, new

34
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: twist on your typical reaction show type stuff that you

35
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: might hear elsewhere or excited about it. So hopefully you

36
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: can join in on the campfire. Sign up to bring

37
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: a covered dish this coming week, or some sort of

38
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: camping supplies, what have you.

39
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 2: Bear spray bear spray is always needed.

40
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. But as for today, you know, today we are

41
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: looking ahead. We are looking ahead at the games that

42
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: are to follow, and I got to be honest, I'm

43
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: getting the warm fuzzies a little bit looking at some

44
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: of these Okay, I'm looking at some of these games

45
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: because here's what happens, and people who listen to this now,

46
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: if you're a college football fan, the season is a

47
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 1: series of ebbs and flows, and some weeks it feels like, ah,

48
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: wish my team played a better opponent, or wish the

49
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: top of my respective conference played a better opponent. Wish

50
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: I had something a little bit more to sink my

51
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: teeth into. What we are trying to do, I think

52
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: is give you something to sink your teeth into as

53
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: we project forward, look ahead, and find the games that

54
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: we are circling. Now, we may differ. We're not going

55
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: to circle all the big games, but we each have

56
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,920
Speaker 1: our respective lists, and I think we're going to use

57
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: that as a starting point to talk through what the

58
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 1: rest of the season looks like.

59
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 2: So, yeah, it's it's a collision course. And we know

60
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 2: that these two teams are you know, one team is

61
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 2: leaving twoson at four fifteen, another team is leaving ann

62
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: Arbor at seven point fifteen. At what time will they?

63
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: That's pretty good, right, I mean, you knew the sound

64
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 2: was coming, You didn't know how I was gonna sew

65
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: it in there.

66
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: You have such a quick trigger with it. Thank you.

67
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: You just sort of inserted into a sentence naturally, which

68
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: I appreciate.

69
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,679
Speaker 2: Okay, So choose a conference, which two teams in your

70
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: conference of choice which matchup to you? Is the most

71
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: obvious or is just the matchup you want to talk

72
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 2: about as like you are looking, you know, threw your

73
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 2: binoculars into the horizon.

74
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: You're like, that's what I want. Well, Okay, if I

75
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: am allowed to be biased this week, we will preview

76
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: this game. Yeah, but Penn State Ohio State has real

77
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: intrinsic value to me. Is a Penn State A one?

78
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 2: So this is right in front. This is not staring

79
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: deep into the distance.

80
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: No, I mean, it is widely assumed that the three

81
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: big games in the Big Ten schedule this season are

82
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: Penn State at Ohio State this weekend, a couple weeks

83
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: from now, Michigan and comes to state college play against

84
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: Penn State, and then week thirteen obviously the game it's

85
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: Ohio State at Michigan this year. Those are the three

86
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: big ones. I did flirt a little bit with Illinois

87
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: at Iowa just because of the very poor offensive ramifications,

88
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: just sort of from a curiosity standpoint. Could the over

89
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: under in that game dip below thirty? Who's to say?

90
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: Who's to say? The reason that I settled on Penn

91
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 1: State Ohio State, though, is it's not just because of

92
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: my own curiosity as a Penn State alum. I maintain,

93
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: as I have since the start of the season, that

94
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: Michigan is still the best team in the Big Ten.

95
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: To your point, I understand we don't know a lot

96
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: about him yet because they haven't played anybody through no

97
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: fault of their own.

98
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, they played East Carolina, Hawaiian Bowling Green

99
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 2: and UNLV fault of their ome continue, whatever, you get

100
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: my point this team, it's not the player's fault. It's

101
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: not JJ mccart's totally true, Papers and book and travel.

102
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: Okay. I've long maintained that Michigan is the top dog

103
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: in the Big Ten, and I believe this season that

104
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: Penn State and Ohio State are on that next tier,

105
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 1: that next yeer, and I think it is close. So

106
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: for me, this will provide some very real clarity how

107
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: the Big Ten total pole stacks up.

108
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 2: I would like to point out they didn't play in

109
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 2: Hawaii this year. They did just Bowling Green. I'm mistaking

110
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 2: my years continue.

111
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: So for me, I you know, not just in terms

112
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: of which team ranks better than the other after this game,

113
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: but it's a battle two good defenses. It's a battle

114
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: of you know, skill talent in different ways. For Penn State,

115
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: as opposed to Ohio State. I think it's a very

116
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: good I think it's a very close matchup. So though

117
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,239
Speaker 1: it may be a bit tired of an answer here,

118
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: I think it's obvious for me. It's Penn State, Ohio State,

119
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: and it's this weekend at now non.

120
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: Functions more so than Michigan Ohio State or Michigan Penn State,

121
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 2: just because you have more data to go on on

122
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 2: Ohio State Penn State. And there are questions to be answered,

123
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 2: right in terms of Drew Aller, and he's had like

124
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 2: he was big time against West Virginia and threw it

125
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: three feet out of time without throwing an interception in

126
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: a very impressive win against Iowa, which, by the way,

127
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 2: this game and all of the different machinations of Penn State,

128
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 2: Ohio State, Michigan, it's like a quarter's semis the right

129
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 2: to play Iowa in the Big Ten championship game, right,

130
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 2: it's a play in. So this is already like a

131
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: playoff quarter final, round of sixteen or something like that,

132
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 2: if you choose to look at it through that lens

133
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, because Iowa was kind of wrapped up

134
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 2: the West and it's not even hell no, So Okay,

135
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 2: this is not a preview in this moment, but what

136
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 2: do you think questions are the most pertinent to be

137
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: answered in Penn State Ohio State.

138
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: I think we know a lot about a iiO state

139
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: at this point. Okay, I feel like we know a

140
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: lot about Ohio State. What we don't know a lot

141
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: about is Penn State. We genuinely do not. We have

142
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: seen them in a few spots along the way. The

143
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: West Virginia win is looking better. The Ohio win or

144
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: the Iowa win, excuse me, was crazy impressive in the

145
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: manner they put Iowa away. But outside of that, it's

146
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: been a lot of bad teams. It's been Delaware, it's

147
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: been Illinois Northwestern, who they struggled with at least.

148
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: So they've each had those low moments of not being

149
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 2: able to separate or yeah, they didn't struggle at all

150
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 2: with UMass. But I think my question is more one

151
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: of style with Penn State Ohio State. And you're right,

152
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: we'll detail this when we do the Wednesday preview. I

153
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 2: want to see if they can actually do something down

154
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 2: the field. It's been a lot of I mentioned this

155
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 2: too earlier. I'm going to start calling it the dunkin

156
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: donuts offense, sure, because it's a lot of the dunks,

157
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: a little short passes that you're hoping to get a

158
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: guy in space. And with the running game, it is

159
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: we're just looking for a hole. Somebody's looking for a hole.

160
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: If you hit the hole, you're gonna go for a touchdown.

161
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: I feel like the line still has a ways to

162
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: go with respect to run blocking, and I'm just not

163
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: sure how that fears against maybe the best team to

164
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: play all year.

165
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, take the under. That's the lesson here.

166
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

167
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 2: I have Michigan Ohio State just because Michigan is on

168
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: that course of like having a two game season at

169
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 2: this point with Maryland's struggles since the U I guess

170
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 2: the second half started of that Ohio State matchup and

171
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 2: then losing to Illinois, so it really is a two

172
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 2: game season for Michigan. I'm still going to circle Michigan

173
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 2: Ohio State because ultimately I'm going to need to see

174
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 2: some evidence of Penn State offense against good teams down

175
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 2: the field, whereas I've seen it from Michigan against bad teams.

176
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 2: I've seen it from Michigan in previous seasons with this

177
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: setup against good teams and you know you're going to

178
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 2: get much more in the way of explosion with Marvin

179
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 2: Harrison Junior and Miko buk Like, those guys are on

180
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 2: your team. I'm not worried about that with Ohio State.

181
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 2: So until proven otherwise, it's still Michroine Ohio State. To me,

182
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 2: what do you got in the sec This one was

183
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 2: difficult to me, and it became a little bit easier

184
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: for all of the wrong reasons. And the wrong reasons

185
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 2: are brock Bauers now being out maybe the regular season,

186
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 2: who knows exactly how long. When there's a type of

187
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 2: surgery that's very specific, I'm like, I don't feel good

188
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 2: about that. When I learn about, you know, a surgical

189
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 2: strategy as it relates to an injury, I don't feel

190
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 2: great about A quick return.

191
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: Was a tightrope, Yeah, it's a tightrope procedure. Yeah, it

192
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: is the same surgery that two ahead right back in

193
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: the day. It is a common surgery and it's sort

194
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 1: of a miracle. They claim that he could be back

195
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: in as little as three maybe as long as six weeks. Okay,

196
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: if it does take six weeks, that would obviously be

197
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: the remainder of the regular season, and who knows what

198
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: state you get him in when he does step foot

199
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: on the field, probably on a stap count at a

200
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: very minimum. So I agree with you. I agree with

201
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: you wholeheartedly because of the injury, which sucks. Sucks, maybe

202
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: the best player in college football that he goes down

203
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 1: with the injury, the ankle injury.

204
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 2: I have it as Georgia Tennessee just because without brock Bowers,

205
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 2: I wonder what the complexion of in the threat of

206
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 2: this Georgia offense looks like, as brock Bowers has been

207
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 2: the one to bail this team out as being that

208
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 2: big target for Carson back. With the running attack not

209
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: looking great, with the offense in general not looking super explosive,

210
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 2: there's still lad McConkey, there's still guys, but with the

211
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: defense looking more vulnerable to the run. The fact that

212
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: this matchup, this huge SECS matchup, is in Knoxville, correct

213
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 2: in Tennessee, I think is Alabama this coming week, that

214
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 2: to me feels like it's the most interesting, even though

215
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 2: there are still pretty major questions about Tennessee. Because if

216
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 2: you go I mean, you go Georgia, Ole Miss, you

217
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 2: go Alabama, LSU. But right now that game feels like

218
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 2: it has the most ramifications because a one loss SEC

219
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 2: champion is not automatic. Feeling for the playoff this year

220
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 2: with an undefeated Washington, undefeated Michigan, undefeated Ohio State, Penn State,

221
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 2: undefeated Oklahoma, It's all going to sort itself out, but

222
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 2: it doesn't feel as automatic right now with Georgia. So

223
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 2: that to me feels like the most interesting collision course

224
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 2: and inevitable. What about you? What's say you?

225
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: With the SEC? Well, I like the Tennessee pick, and

226
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: I like the Tennessee pick because the Tennessee Georgia pick

227
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 1: because Tennessee, of the teams that I looked at, I

228
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: think has the clear best defense. Okay, Tennessee's defense as

229
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: compared to Ole Misses, as compared to Missouri's, is the best.

230
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: I do worry a little bit about Joe Milton throwing

231
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: into that Georgia torus and if in fact Tennessee is

232
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: going to be mostly one sided as they were in

233
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: the game we just saw this past weekend. Georgia can

234
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: stop that. Georgia can stop that with a four man front.

235
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: They don't need to stack the box with seven. That's

236
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 1: just they're good at that.

237
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 2: So do you have a matchup, you're you're circling with

238
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 2: thicker sharpie, Seth Davis Sharpie. I the one I.

239
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: Think the Missouri matchup Miszoo and who Georgia Georgia. Yeah,

240
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think we're on the same

241
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,959
Speaker 1: page to the extent that it's got to be a

242
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: Georgia game. Given what we know now with the brock

243
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: Bauers injury and how he was such an engine for

244
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: that offense, they're gonna have to turn to somebody new.

245
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: We know they've got the skill talent to do it,

246
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: but we just have not necessarily seen them prove that out.

247
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: But you know, Maszoo played them tight. Last year was

248
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 1: a weird game. Remember we were messaging back and forth

249
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: to each other like what's going on? Twitter was going crazy?

250
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 1: Is this for real? Should we believe it? Georgia did

251
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: not play well in that game a year ago.

252
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 2: And then they still won the National championship, still won

253
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 2: the National seven.

254
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: The National championship. But it's just that, to me, feels

255
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: like it's got the makings of a bit of an

256
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: odd game. And I like that Missouri's offense has definitely

257
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: found more of an identity. They still do for the

258
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,839
Speaker 1: most part, pay play pretty good defense. Obviously have had

259
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: their moments here in the early part of the season.

260
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna go Miszoo.

261
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 2: That's wild and it's not a wrong answer that you'd

262
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 2: rather watch that game than any other remaining But I

263
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 2: think it's a good answer still because there is something

264
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 2: more complete seeming about Missoo right now, especially after their

265
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 2: nice win against Kentucky. What about the PAC twelve America's Conference.

266
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 2: You have Washington at USC left USC at Oregon, left

267
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 2: US excuse me, Oregon at Utah USC Utah. You know

268
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 2: there's a lot coming together, Washington, Oregon State. There's a

269
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 2: lot there still a lot of meat on the bone.

270
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 2: Maybe to take on Washington if it's a play in

271
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: situation or just like where Washington could be tripped up.

272
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 2: Who do you have?

273
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: The game this past weekend was probably the biggest one

274
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: that I was most looking forward to. But sure, I

275
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: do think that the rest of them, I'm less interested

276
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: in the Washington story because the more I look at

277
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: Washington's slate there remaining slate, the better I feel about it.

278
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: Washington the rest of the way, obviously just beat Oregon.

279
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: They've got Arizona State, Stanford, USC, Utah, Oregon State, and Wazoo.

280
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: That is not an easy November by any stretch. So

281
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: I am a bit torn between Washington at USC. Not

282
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: because I'm crazy about USC, but because I believe they

283
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: can still put up points. Right it's a road game

284
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: for Washington, and I believe that USC is going to

285
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: be able to put up points there. They just will.

286
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: The other one that I find interesting in the PAC

287
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: twelve is Oregon, Oregon State, val Okay, and I find

288
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: that interesting because what I believe is going to happen

289
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: the rest of the way here in the PAC twelve,

290
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 1: I do think Washington will eventually drop one. I don't

291
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: expect them to go undefeated. We are potentially looking at

292
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: a log jam at the top, with maybe everyone cannibalizing

293
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: themselves at least once everyone finishing with the loss, and

294
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: then a battle Royale, a royal rubble of source to

295
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: try and figure out who gets into the Pack twelve

296
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: title game.

297
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 2: Are you about to make an allusion to who buzzes

298
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: through logs in the logjam? But beavers? Is that what

299
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 2: you were about? I was not going to go there.

300
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: That's okay, that's pretty good right, so Platypus Cup. I

301
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: think Oregon State at Oregon the Friday of Week thirteen

302
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: is one of those games that could settle who plays

303
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: for the PAC twelve Championship. Yeah. I don't know what

304
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: to expect from USC the rest of the way. What

305
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: we saw this past weekend was not promising. You could

306
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: easily see them dropping another game or two easily. Utah

307
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: in its present state is going nowhere. They just don't

308
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: have offenses. They play better Pack twelve teams. I think

309
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: it's a no go. But I expect Oregon State and

310
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: Oregon to be competitive the rest of the way, and

311
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 1: when they meet up, there's a pretty good chance that

312
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 1: that game is for the right to play Washington in

313
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: the title game. So I think that's the one for me.

314
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 2: I have Oregon State Washington and I like your answer

315
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: because there is that element of like, if Oregon wins

316
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: its remaining games heading into the rivalry game in Eugene,

317
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: that then becomes a play and matchup for them to

318
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 2: get into that huge I don't know if it's on

319
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 2: Friday or Saturday this year the PAC twelve Championship game,

320
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 2: but a rematch in Vegas after what I think a

321
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 2: lot of people considered to be one of the best

322
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: matchups of the season this past weekend. I have Oregon

323
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 2: State Washington just because I think Washington should be undefeated.

324
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 2: The USC one is circled for me. Did you talk

325
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: go to Seattle? I don't know you can pull that

326
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: up right now.

327
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: But Utah is at Washington in week eleven.

328
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So nobody's ever run through the PAC twelve

329
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 2: twelve undefeated PAC ten, I believe, but not twelve. Obviously,

330
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 2: USC and Oregon teams have done it, and so I

331
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 2: think the Gauntlet is just gonna be too tough for everyone.

332
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 2: Washington has looked very good, has found ways to win

333
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 2: in the last couple of weeks. But Oregon State is

334
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 2: in a sandwich spot I think between was it between

335
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 2: Utah and Wazoo and the Apple Cup. It's at Oregon State,

336
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,199
Speaker 2: and you've got the sort of like the element of

337
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 2: the Beaves frothing at the mouth in their last year.

338
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 2: But they're going to try to just wreck everything for

339
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: like the big boys heading to the Big Conference, and

340
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 2: so you're gonna have the the You're gonna have the

341
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 2: chainsaw going on third down, like that's the one that

342
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm licking my chops for that one, just

343
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,439
Speaker 2: as a football fan to see what happens. You know,

344
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 2: Jonathan Smith is gonna be coaching super Well, you've got

345
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: the connective tissue. Think Oregon State played well against Washington

346
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 2: last year. Jonathan Smith is like an all time great

347
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator for Washington. I just think there's a lot

348
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 2: of a lot of meat on that bone that I'm

349
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 2: looking forward to. So that's my pick.

350
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: By the way, weeks eleven, Weeks ten and eleven are

351
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 1: crazy good. I can't wait, I can't wait, preezy good.

352
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 2: It's a Big twelve. I struggled with the Big twelve

353
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 2: because we have two teams that seem like they've separated

354
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 2: themselves from the pack. Could be a rematch. Oklahoma doesn't

355
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 2: really play an interesting team on the regular.

356
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: Person Oklahoma Oklahoma doesn't. But I struggled with this one initially,

357
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 1: and then I settled on a game that I'm in

358
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: love with. Please again. I'm looking at most of these

359
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 1: through the lens of who's getting to the conference title game.

360
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: I don't care so much about the playoff. I'm thinking

361
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: of this from a conference standpoint. That's how who is

362
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: Oklahoma awaiting. Oh, I am fixated on a game in

363
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: Week twelve. Week twelve, Texas at Iowa State. I had

364
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: this one at first, and it's obvious why continue? I

365
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: think Iowa States figured itself out? Oh T not like this?

366
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 2: Really, you think Iowa State has figured I think they

367
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 2: figured out how to beat SOSO teams. True, okay, but

368
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 2: it's okay if you're a believer. Who am I to

369
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 2: question in you?

370
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like what we saw the last

371
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 1: two weeks out of Iowa State is very promising. Now,

372
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma game they got boat raised was close, but

373
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 1: the last two weeks have been promising. They only have

374
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: one loss in conference. It was that Oklahoma game. The

375
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 1: rest of the way, They've got Baylor. They can beat Baylor.

376
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: They've got Kansas, they can beat Kansas. They got BYU,

377
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: they can definitely beat BYU. Final two games of the year,

378
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: Texas and k State. Those are the most difficult Farmageddon, Yeah,

379
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: most typicult games in the remaining schedule. Texas game is

380
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,199
Speaker 1: interesting to me because there's there's a real possibility that

381
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: these are two Big twelve teams that have one loss

382
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: in conference, very real possibility that that's where we're at

383
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: come week twelve, and so Iowa State going to Texas,

384
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: Texas perhaps not taking Iowa State as seriously as they should.

385
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 1: I've seen that happen before. Yeah. Uh, that to me

386
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: is sort of my answer, I think, if only because

387
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: it is not an answer I would have seen coming

388
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: three weeks ago. That's fair. I just feel like Iowa

389
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: status looked really good the last couple weeks, and Uh,

390
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: that matchup's interested to me. I think it's a sneaky

391
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 1: good matchup I have.

392
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna plant my flag right now as a believer

393
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 2: in the Vacuum. And that's to say I believe in

394
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 2: Josh Hoover.

395
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: The vacuum.

396
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 2: Oh Josh Hoover throws for like four hundred some odd yards.

397
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 2: It was BYU, which I think is they're okay, you

398
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 2: know it's I don't think it means TCU has fully

399
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 2: figured itself out, but kind of look like TCU right

400
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,639
Speaker 2: against b YU, and that's that's something to me. TCU

401
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 2: has this incredible history against Texas to figuring out ways

402
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 2: to win. The Universe loves TCU against Texas. That game

403
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 2: is I think a week is that game a week

404
00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 2: before the Iowa State Texas matchup, so it sort of

405
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 2: begins a tough run to finish out the year. It's

406
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 2: Texas Tech, I think is where Texas finishes for season

407
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,719
Speaker 2: on Friday. TCU, I feel like is just sort of

408
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 2: I think it's our Marci playground team. They're just kind

409
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 2: of hanging around right now. They look bad, but they

410
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 2: had that little spike and we're going to see if

411
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 2: that spike pays off. I think Texas TCU in Fort Worth,

412
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 2: Texas bidding a do to the Big twelve. I think

413
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 2: there's me a lot of energy there and so I'm

414
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 2: going to Texas TCU. But again, it's planting my flag

415
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 2: perhaps a little bit prematurely about Josh Over and figuring

416
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 2: things out for TCU. But I also discovered watching the

417
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: TCU game Warren Thompson still.

418
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: In still in college. Yeah, yeah, he was.

419
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 2: He was in a Willie Taggart recruiting class at Oregon.

420
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: By the way. That TCU Texas game. Another one in

421
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: week eleven. Oh yeah, I can't wait. Ten eleven, ten

422
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 1: eleven are crazy? All right, final final acc acc This

423
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 1: one to me was easy, Okay, this is North Carolina

424
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 1: at clemch Yeah, definitely did you agree, Yes, this is

425
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: North Carolina at Clemson because North Carolina the rest of

426
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: the way has a favorable schedule. Look, it's there for

427
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 1: him if they want it. I don't know to what

428
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: end we should really believe in the defense, but it's

429
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 1: been considerably better this year the rest of the way.

430
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: They've got Virginia this week, then they're on the road

431
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 1: at Georgia Tech, come back home back to back weeks

432
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: against the Campbell Fighting Camels, Duke Blue Devils. I don't

433
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: know where Duke will be at that point in time.

434
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: I know Riley Leonard is trying to work his way back.

435
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: Final two games for North Carolina at Clemson at NC State.

436
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: Clemson's one clet is a big one.

437
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 2: And if you had asked me after week two, the

438
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 2: no brainer would be in Florida State Miami. After Miami

439
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: scored nearly fifty against was it fifty exactly or nearly

440
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 2: fifty against Texas A and M and Florida State looked

441
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 2: like what they look like against LSU in week one.

442
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think right now Drake may throwing into

443
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 2: this Clemson defense. Is North Carolina's defense real enough? And

444
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 2: I know they haven't been great against the run to

445
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 2: slow down Will Shipley and the rushing attack. Incredible, incredible

446
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 2: story North Carolina. I think that's the matchup. Can I

447
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 2: go through real quick my G five?

448
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah please?

449
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 4: Yeah?

450
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 1: Please? Okay.

451
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 2: So I have Toledo Miami, both undefeated in the MAC

452
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 2: play other this weekend. Toledo point and a half favorites

453
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 2: on the road. All Toledo does is make bowl games,

454
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 2: and I think they've already clinched a bowl game this year.

455
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 2: It's like sixteen straight years. It's great air Force Fresno,

456
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 2: but that's in the championship game. But I feel like

457
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 2: it's in a collision corpse situation and they will not

458
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 2: play each other in the regular season, so it's kind

459
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 2: of it's not a rematch. But otherwise, I don't know.

460
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 2: If you've looked at air Force's schedule, they have played

461
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 2: nobody and they will play nobody, Like it will be

462
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 2: a shocker if air Force doesn't go twelve to zero.

463
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. The rest of the way, air Force one team

464
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: with a winning record. Yeah, They've got Navy this week,

465
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: followed by Colorado State Army, Hawaii UNLV and they close

466
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: out the year on the road on a Friday against Boise.

467
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 2: I think they're going to be in the championship game,

468
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 2: and I think it'll be in Fort Collins.

469
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: I think it'll be great.

470
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 2: So I have that as a collision course. Air Force

471
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 2: and Fresno JMU Georgia State played I think a couple weeks.

472
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: Georgia State Darren Granger still there, still winning, still have

473
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 2: a good team. Another I believe it's in Atlanta. And

474
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 2: then SMU Memphis Tulane appears to be once again the

475
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 2: class of the American. And while Memphis has been more

476
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 2: impressive in how they've performed against who they've performed against.

477
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 2: If you remember they held their own against Miszoo and

478
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 2: lost late, SMU just has no quality wins. They lost

479
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,959
Speaker 2: to TCU and just haven't really played anybody, but they're winning.

480
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: That to me is the interesting matchup in the American

481
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,719
Speaker 2: that I'm circling because it does look like a plan

482
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 2: to take on TU lane in the American. So that's

483
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 2: where I am right now.

484
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: Beautiful, Well, look, here's the way this works. We have

485

487
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,040

493
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: every Thursday, which has been fun for each of us.

494
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: I think we're really getting into it. Yeah, we're learning

495
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 1: as we go alongside the verballer hood. Yeah, it is

496
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,719
Speaker 1: just growing in leaps and bounds. It's awesome and we're excited.

497
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 1: So check it out if you're interested. Otherwise, Dan, there

498
00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 1: is only one thing left to do. We did not

499
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: play your reverbs on the week seven Campfire episode because

500
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,479
Speaker 1: we didn't have them at the time. We do have

501
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: them now we're going to play him for you. We'll

502
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: catch you on the flip side over at verballers dot com.

503
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 5: And Joyce, you'd like to point out that Yukon did

504
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 5: not lose this weekend.

505
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 6: Daniels calling in from Columbia, South Carolina, and Dan, I.

506
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 7: Don't want to hear any of your false positivity of

507
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 7: Man Oregon really tried it.

508
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 6: Oh blah blah blah. You've been beaten down on tie

509
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 6: in these notre dame losses, and I need some raw,

510
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 6: terribly sad emotions to MAT's where I'm at right now,

511
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,400
Speaker 6: because my fiance is out here trying to be supportive,

512
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 6: but nobody understands how feeling this is.

513
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 8: Eric in Tempe, Arizona, local Husky fan out here and listen.

514
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 8: Oregon is an excellent team. They run the ball well,

515
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 8: but when it matters most, they choke. Can't convern off

516
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 8: fourths down, you can't kick the field goal. The Huskies

517
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 8: are the best team in the best conference.

518
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 7: I'm thirty seven years old, so I feel like I

519
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 7: have enough wisdom to say this. I'm actually driving to

520
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 7: Kroger to get Arthurrider is cream for my knuckles. Has

521
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,439
Speaker 7: nothing to do with the fact that I was punching

522
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 7: walls after watching Dan Lanning not punch the ball. Make

523
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 7: it all better, guys, make it all better, Tyler.

524
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 3: And Wisconsin here. Based on what I read, we're supposed

525
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 3: to be roasting something. I can just roast myself forever

526
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 3: believing that this Badger team was anything more than an

527
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 3: eight win team.

528
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 9: Awful performance every week and make your joke.

529
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 10: But guess what the guys of six and one.

530
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 9: Three, four, Hey, Dan and Tye.

531
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 3: It's Vaughn in Morgantown, just thinking out loud about what

532
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 3: happened last night and what it means to be happy

533
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 3: and while we were put on this earth. But go Mountaineers.

534
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 9: I guess I always date with the big win today

535
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 9: led by rock O flocker Plane in Rocko's modern offense

536
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 9: in the month of October. You know the people are asking,

537
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 9: is I always stay the third best team in the

538
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 9: Big twelve bro Clones.

539
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 3: I know this is a rebuilding year for Purdue, but

540
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 3: I'm yet to see a play from scrimmage where I

541
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 3: think that was a smart, gutsy call by Graham Harrold.

542
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 4: This is how weird and injury plagued this season has

543
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 4: been for my beloved Utah.

544
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 3: You it's our leading rusher against the Golden Bears with

545
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty eight yards on the ground. Was

546
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 3: our safety?

547
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 6: You know, I just checked my phone and Oregon in

548
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 6: Washington's ud be having quite the game.

549
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 3: I've watched none of it. I just that the Maryland.

550
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 5: Game and we lost to Illinois.

551
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 6: Oh my god, my Gators won. I thought when they

552
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,880
Speaker 6: were down by some in the fourth quarter, where we're.

553
00:28:58,800 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: Going to lose?

554
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 3: No, we what and took an intentional safety to keep

555
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 3: stuff going for getting the ball.

556
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 9: We did that fall of Miami yes Ki and Dan.

557
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 5: I think Graham Burgs is setter and you thought he

558
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 5: was gonna be go Gator? How about them by ay

559
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 5: Ay Perdy?

560
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 4: It was a plot Todent.

561
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 5: We made him out it at a crock pot and

562
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 5: the Tennessee volunteers at five and one after being the

563
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 5: text Aggie go home. Does anybody know how to get

564
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 5: in touch with Heather Graham because I'm pretty sure Mike

565
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 5: Elto stole Dave Clausen's mojo looking at it.

566
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 11: Washington State get blown out by Arizona. The Pac twelve

567
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 11: doesn't want you to know this, but the wins against

568
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 11: Arizona teams are free. You can take them home. Utah

569
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 11: has thirty seven wins. Why aren't they doing that?

570
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 8: Hi, Tian Dan and I just wanted to come in

571
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 8: you on being spot on about the atmosphere at Kingon Stadium.

572
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 9: It really was kind of lacking given the fact that

573
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 9: all the Miami fans left the.

574
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 4: Third quarter al Golden just gifted Lincoln Riley with about

575
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 4: sixty minutes of phil footage of how to play defense.

576
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 4: Sadly he won't do anything with it.

577
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 3: Hey, this is Katie in Texas.

578
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 1: They were too scared of the Big twelve.

579
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 2: Now the gig's up in the PAC twelve.

580
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 11: Which conference do we think Lincoln and Williams will try next?

581
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 10: Hey? I know it's not the Patriot League, but how

582
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 10: about those fighting Hawks up in Grand Brooks taking down

583
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 10: North Dakota State for the first time in twenty years.

584
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 10: Got some good FCS ball up there, fellas.

585
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 3: Hey, do you guys smell that? I think somebody let

586
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 3: Brady cook.

587
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 5: How about them Rebels beating at Wolfpack today. Reno sucks.

588
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 5: Reno sucks. There you go, one of your dozens of

589
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,479
Speaker 5: Rebels fans calling in Happy Saturday. Paint that cannon
