How's the pau He asked me about how's 37 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 4: the pollen going right now? I was just really sick 38 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 4: and I just told him, told him tonight right before 39 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 4: the show. It was like, dude, I've just had allergies 40 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 4: now for like eight years, so I don't I don't 41 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 4: know if it's Paulin anymore or not. I had an 42 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 4: allergy test. They want me to have allergy shots and 43 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 4: all sorts of stuff. Now it's just it's just crazy 44 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 4: over here. There's nothing nothing, I can do about it anymore. 45 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 4: I just know I'm gonna wake up with a running 46 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 4: nose pretty much every day now. No, it's weird. 47 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 3: I get I wake up with a sore throat every 48 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 3: day for like six months at a time, and I'm 49 00:01:59,520 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 3: not sick. 50 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 4: I'm not sick. 51 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: I think the air just gets strewed too dry at night. Anyway, 52 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 3: TMI Sugar Bowl. Ole Miss has cut the lead to 53 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: twenty one to eighteen. 54 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 4: They've tried so hard to just get blown out of 55 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 4: this game, yes, but they do have a lot of talent, 56 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 4: so like they've actually been able to get around some 57 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 4: of these mistakes and still be in this game because 58 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 4: they're really good. And again, the greatest story, like Indiana 59 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 4: is gonna be the greatest story, but the other greatest 60 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 4: story would be ole Miss winning a championship with Lang 61 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 4: Kiffin not there because he didn't think he could win 62 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 4: and he went to LSU and then they go win 63 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 4: a title like that. That would be the other one. 64 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 4: I'm not saying they're even gonna win this game. I'm 65 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 4: just saying I think a whole lot of people are 66 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 4: old Miss fans right now. 67 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 3: It would be And you know, I want to get 68 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: to Alabama, but for half a second on Link Kiffin 69 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 3: is I and I said this on our Saturday show, 70 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: like I do think for people who don't follow the 71 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 3: college football calendar, tomorrow the transfer portal opens, and that's 72 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 3: really where for basically everybody, including teams still playing. That's 73 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 3: really where you start to push towards next year. You 74 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 3: kind of know who's coming back. And then, of course 75 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 3: it's essentially free agency for college football. 76 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 4: You're gonna see so many quarterbacks with news tomorrow. There's 77 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 4: gonna be all sorts of like twelve oh one hits 78 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 4: or whatever. You're just gonna see quarterbacks with new destinations 79 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 4: all over the place. It's gonna be insane. 80 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 3: I wonder if it happens while we're on air, but 81 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 3: that's my I'm serious. We will be on till midnight Easter. 82 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 3: But I bring it up because and I said this 83 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 3: to you on Saturday, is Lane Kiffin. 84 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 4: It was a terrible exit. 85 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: We all know that, but I will say he has 86 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 3: said all of the right things about you know, I 87 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 3: want that team to finish and I hope they win 88 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 3: a championshi blah blah blah blah. Half of his staff 89 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 3: is still coaching Ole Miss. Yeah, but they're also like 90 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 3: weirdly recruiting for LSU And so I only bring it 91 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 3: up because he would never say it publicly. I don't 92 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 3: think with Lane Kiffin, you would never know. But I 93 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 3: think it's easy to root for the team round one whatever. 94 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: The portal's gonna be open tomorrow, and like you need 95 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 3: boots on the ground in and rouge I. There's no 96 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 3: way to know, and it's not really a topic, and 97 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 3: it's there's nowhere to really take this conversation. But I 98 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: would just say, I think it's easy for Langekiff to 99 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 3: be like, oh, yeah, I'm rooting for him. Yeah, let's 100 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 3: see what happens at twelve oh one tonight if Ole 101 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 3: Miss is hosting a Sugar Bowl Trophy and your coaches 102 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 3: have another week of game prep when the portals open something. 103 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, Dan Lanning's right, he said, you know, earlier 104 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 4: this week, he said, look, we've got to stop this. 105 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 4: We need the season to be over. No games need 106 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 4: to be played after January the first, whether we have 107 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 4: to play week zero, we need to have four consecutive 108 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 4: weeks to the playoff of sixteen teams, no buys, and 109 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 4: you know, get this thing done so that guys that 110 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 4: are moving on can go ahead into their new jobs. 111 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 4: Of course, he's got that same thing with will Stein 112 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 4: as offensive coordinator, who's going to Kentucky to be the 113 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 4: head coach. Like there's this kind of thing is happening everywhere, 114 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 4: and what you're saying about Lane Kiffin is right, like 115 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 4: he does need it. It is this new job and 116 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 4: he wants some of those guys there and he needs 117 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 4: them in order to do what needs to be done 118 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 4: right now, Like the college football schedule is not conduced 119 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 4: to anything. It's not conducive to these decisions coaches have 120 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 4: to make as they're getting Pilford from this school to 121 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 4: that school and all this, but then the coordinators and 122 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 4: the kids are left in the lurch on everything, like 123 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 4: it's a mess. I don't know. I think Lannings at 124 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 4: least his heart is in the right place. I don't 125 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 4: know how the logistics work. He said something like I 126 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 4: think he said it, or maybe somebody else said use 127 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 4: fifteen bull sites to do this or whatever like that, 128 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 4: or maybe you do it on campus something. They're going 129 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 4: to have to figure this thing out because this is 130 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 4: going to become more of a cluster not less. 131 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, all I would say is, first of all, 132 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 3: I was against, like Clatt has been saying for years, 133 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 3: the season should end January first, and I kind of 134 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 3: logistically didn't know if it was possible. 135 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: I do think you could basically just move. 136 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 3: Up the season a week elimited conference championship games, and 137 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 3: you could get there pretty easily. I do think there 138 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 3: are like I think it would make a lot of 139 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 3: sense for a lot more people and the entire sport. 140 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 3: It can't be going into late January, you know, like 141 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 3: like you and I have talked about it on our 142 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 3: Saturday show. But it's like, listen, I love college football 143 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: as much as anybody. You get to the middle of January, 144 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 3: the end of January. I remember last year the championship game, 145 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 3: that the college football Championship Game was the day after 146 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 3: Ravens Bills, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, and it's like, I 147 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 3: love college football, but I just watched Lamar Jackson and 148 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 3: Josh Allen and that's all I want to talk about, 149 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 3: and that's all I care about. And what are the ramifications. 150 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 3: It's like, oh, Ohio State in or day were playing now, I. 151 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 4: Mean the title game is being played on January the nineteenth, folks, 152 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 4: and go that does not There's just no reason for that. 153 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 4: This is the same thing as like the NBA season 154 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 4: starting in October. Nobody cares yet, Like it's just not 155 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 4: a good time. Start on Christmas Day, make it your day. Start, 156 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 4: you know, start much later because you only have so 157 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 4: many attention spans out there and they're all devoted to 158 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 4: football at that point in time. Well, by the time 159 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 4: you get to the NFL playoffs, college needs to be 160 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 4: done because the attention has changed, it moves and when 161 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 4: if you've watched the and Josh Allen, it's gonna be 162 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 4: hard to go watch JJ McCarthy at Michigan the next night. 163 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 4: It just is, it's gonna make it feel like it's 164 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 4: less than let them have the stage where the champion 165 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 4: used to always be crowned. It felt like on January 166 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 4: first when I was a kid, And it just seems 167 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 4: like it's going later and later and later needlessly. 168 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: I'll give you a perfect example. Then we'll get to 169 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 3: Mansi for the update. But you know, I am a 170 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 3: believer that just there are certain things at certain times 171 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 3: of year and when you try to like put them 172 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 3: outside of that, people just are not gonna care. What 173 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 3: I mean by that is like one, college football just 174 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 3: does not need to be played in late January. But 175 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: the example that I'll use, and I know you'll love 176 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 3: this one. How many years in a row have we 177 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: been trying to make spring professional football up? 178 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 4: Dude? 179 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 3: I mean besides we no, no. 180 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 4: No, no, oh, everyone else maybe, well yeah, we And. 181 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,239 Speaker 3: It's like every single year, all these leagues keep convincing 182 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 3: themselves like America wants more football, and it's like, no, no, 183 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 3: we watched like twenty four straight weeks of it and 184 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 3: it was incredible at the highest level. It's March. I 185 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 3: want to watch college basketball. I don't need to watch this, 186 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 3: and then I want to watch NBA playoffs. By the way, 187 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: speaking of playoffs, in the Sugar Bowl, fake punt by 188 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 3: Georgia is converted about four minutes left in the fourth 189 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: core in the third quarter. 190 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 4: Exceed. That's the kind of thing I'm talking about with 191 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 4: Kirby Smart. He does stuff like that. Oh yeah, what 192 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 4: was it? What game was it? Where it was the 193 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 4: Old Miss game? I think if it wasn't the Old 194 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 4: Miss game, was it? LSU? There was a game this 195 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 4: year where they pulled a fake out and it completely 196 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 4: changed the momentum of the game. He got super aggressive. 197 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 4: It was a Texas game. 198 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 3: They went for a heck coarse That's what I believe, 199 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 3: three times on one drive to seal the game. 200 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 4: I believe that's what it was. He's just, he's just 201 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 4: he's aggressive in a way that so many guys like 202 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 4: Ohio State would love for Ryan Day to be aggressively. Sorry, 203 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 4: that was low hanging fruit, but it was also accurate. 204 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 3: Well, let's see, speaking of accurate, Gunner stocked in incomplete 205 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 3: down the field. But you know who's always accurate, Manzi Belaga. 206 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 3: Oh yes, semi accurate, now I'm kidding. 207 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 4: No, it's good. 208 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 5: Semi above five hundred, Yeah, above fifty percent? 209 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 3: How about that? 210 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 4: How good with that? 211 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: What do we got, Monzi? Tell us what's new in 212 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: the world of sports? 213 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 5: All right, guys, Happy New Year. First of all, it's 214 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 5: twenty twenty six. I wonder how long I'm gonna write 215 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 5: twenty twenty five down though, it'll take a couple of days. 216 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 217 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 5: The Sugar Bowl, it's in the second half, and the 218 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 5: Rebels got in the end zone after going for it 219 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 5: on fourth and three. They got a nice thirty six 220 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 5: yard pass from Trinidad Chambliss setting them setting them up 221 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 5: for a rushing touchdown. But as you mentioned, the Bulldogs 222 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 5: are trying to get some points. They are still in 223 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 5: their own side of the field, on their own side 224 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 5: of the field. But the Bulldogs are up right now 225 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 5: twenty one to nineteen with about three minutes to go, 226 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 5: and they just crossed over, so they are definitely driving 227 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 5: downfield making their way towards the red zone. Chambliss is 228 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 5: twenty three to thirty four for two hundred and thirty 229 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 5: five yards and the touchdown Gunner stocked in for the 230 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 5: Bulldogs is nine to eighteen for hundred and five yards. 231 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 4: But he has two rushing touchdowns. He's got rocked twice. Yeah, 232 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 4: it was one of those hits. I can't believe he 233 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 4: got up for him. 234 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 5: If it would have been the NFL, that thing they 235 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 5: would taken out, they would have taken them over. 236 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 4: He would have been with like, no way, no way. 237 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 3: J mart In our text thread said, the refs clearly 238 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 3: don't want to be the story in this playoff. But 239 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 3: if that wasn't targeting in the first half, I don't 240 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 3: know what is. And now, by the way, it looks 241 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 3: like he's down. 242 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 4: He's been hit. 243 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 5: Yes, he's been rocked. So but Bulldogs are up. We'll see, 244 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 5: We'll see what happens. Plenty of game left. At the 245 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 5: Rolls Bowl, it was the Indiana Show. They crushed Alabama 246 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 5: thirty eight to three, where Fernando Mendoza had a hat trick. 247 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 5: He threw for one hundred and ninety two yards and 248 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 5: three touchdowns. And unfortunately for Alabama, their quarterback Tys Simpson, 249 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 5: who also kind of got rocked in that second quarter 250 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 5: a little bit where he fumbled the ball, exited early 251 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 5: in the second half and they had to put in 252 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 5: their back of Austin Mack to finish the game. And 253 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 5: then at the Orange Bowl, Oregon shout out Texas Tech 254 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 5: twenty three zero, where the Ducks had two interceptions, seven 255 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 5: tackles for loss, and four sac shutting down the Red 256 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 5: Raider offense. So Oregon and Indiana are going to face 257 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 5: each other in the Peach Bowl on Friday, January ninth. 258 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 4: A little NFL news for you. 259 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson is expected to start for the Ravens for 260 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 5: Sunday Night football against the Steelers. 261 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 4: Saints.

I'm shocked. I am genuinely stunned. Ole 309 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 3: missed the thirty nine to thirty four win. I will 310 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 3: try to be as quick as I can. Here J 311 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 3: Martin explaining this. Ole Miss takes a thirty seven thirty 312 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: four lead with six seconds to go. I mean, there 313 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 3: was a lot of that happened before that, but thirty 314 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 3: six what would that be? Thirty six, thirty thirty seven 315 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: and thirty four lead with six seconds to go. They 316 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 3: kick the ball off and as our Fox Sports Radio 317 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 3: college football insider Alex Teischer told us, this is with 318 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 3: six seconds left and Georgia up or oh Miss up 319 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 3: three at this point, okay, all they Olemiss has to 320 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 3: do is one play and they're done. Georgia elects to 321 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 3: run the ball out of the end zone. They then 322 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: throw a later roll that trickles out of bounds. The 323 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 3: clock hit zero, Confetti falls on the field. The refs 324 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 3: go to the monitor. One second is left on the clock. 325 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 3: A safety is called to put ole Miss up thirty 326 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 3: nine to thirty four because the ball went out of 327 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 3: bounds in the end zone. Okay, so Ole Miss is 328 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 3: up thirty nine thirty four. There is still a second 329 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 3: left on the clock. At that point, Georgia lines up 330 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 3: for what is essentially an on side kick. I don't 331 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 3: even know if you call it an on side kick 332 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 3: because it was after a safety whatever kick. The ball 333 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 3: barely makes it ten yards. There's only one second left 334 00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 3: on the clock. Georgia recovers it. Apparently no time comes 335 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 3: off the clock in this situation. 336 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 4: I'm sorry. 337 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 3: If I'm a football casual, I had no idea. I 338 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 3: assumed at least a second would come off after they 339 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 3: touched the ball. Georgia recovers the on sidekick again, trailing 340 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 3: thirty nine to thirty four. 341 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 4: Ole Miss thinks the game is over. 342 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 3: Pete Golding, the now head coach at Old Miss, doused 343 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 3: with gatorade and it turns out that no time comes 344 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 3: off the clock, so Georgia gets one play with one 345 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: second left. They have about twenty five laterals that result 346 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 3: in Gunner Stockton getting the ball back. After starting to 347 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 3: play with the completion the ball is Stockton ends up 348 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 3: getting tackled. The game is now officially over Ole Miss 349 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: thirty nine Georgia thirty four. 350 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 4: The Old Miss. 351 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 3: Rebels, along with the Miami Hurricanes, who they will play 352 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 3: next week in the Fiesta Bowl, have advanced to the 353 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 3: semi finals of the College Football Playoff. Obviously, the other 354 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 3: game will be Indiana, and uh who am I missing? Oregon? 355 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 3: Indiana and Oregon. So Indiana, Oregon all missed match and 356 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: uh whatever, that's the final four, But take it where 357 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 3: you want. After that goofy ending and this incredible win 358 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 3: for the Old Miss Rebels, I. 359 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 4: Mean, it's just an incredible story. These last two games 360 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 4: really just have stories you can't write. You've got Indiana 361 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 4: finding its way into being the number one seed and 362 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 4: then just demolishing really the team of the century in 363 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 4: college football so far in terms of just the program 364 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 4: that Saban built and what they had been for fifteen years. 365 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 4: And then you've got this with a coach his second 366 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 4: game as a head coach after the fiasco with Lane Kiffen, 367 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 4: and they come in here and they beat Georgia, who 368 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 4: was my pick to win it all and who was 369 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 4: playing I felt like about as good as anybody in 370 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 4: the country and had everything going for him. And look 371 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 4: they took shot from Georgia and still were just better 372 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 4: in the end. Trinidad Chambliss just his story alone, but 373 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 4: just what he ended up doing in this game, well 374 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 4: over three hundred yards, just made every throw that he 375 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 4: had to make they win the game. It's just outrageous. 376 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 4: And immediately saw like forum comments that were like, well, 377 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,959 Speaker 4: Miami's going to the national championship because no, because Old 378 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 4: Miss definitely can't stop the run. And I'm just thinking 379 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 4: to myself, I'm like, did you just watch Old Miss 380 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 4: and Georgia, Like if you want to count them out, 381 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 4: you go right ahead, like, yeah, Miami's really good, and 382 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 4: Miami beat them. I'm not suggesting that they won't. I'm 383 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 4: just saying, if you're going to actually just poop this 384 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 4: to borrow Rob Parker's phrase or his term, you've lost 385 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 4: your mind. Man. There is nobody that needs to be 386 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 4: looking past this Old Miss team, especially when it looks 387 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 4: like they're having more fun playing football now than they 388 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 4: were at any point during the season, especially when they 389 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 4: were in afterthought because of their coaches, drama, their coach. 390 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 3: You know, let me ask you this, jmrt is I 391 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 3: want to celebrate Ole Miss doing what they're doing. I 392 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 3: keep coming back to. Obviously an incredible story, it goes 393 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 3: without saying. I do think the biggest story of this 394 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 3: game is the fact that Lane Kiffin is not on 395 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 3: the sidelines. And listen, at this point, he's allowed to 396 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 3: do what he did. He whatever, it's his life, whatever. 397 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 3: But the whole concept of leaving for LSU was that 398 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 3: I want to go to a place where I can 399 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 3: compete for championships. And I just go back to what 400 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 3: and what I keep saying. You know, I think I've 401 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 3: said this on air a million times, but listen, it's 402 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 3: the old Herm Edwards line. You play to win the game. 403 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 3: If you're Lane Kiffen, you coach your entire career to 404 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 3: have a team that finishes eleven and one in the 405 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 3: SEC and is in the college football player. 406 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 4: You play to win the game. 407 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 3: You're going somewhere to do something that you could have accomplished. 408 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 4: Quite literally. 409 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 3: It's not like a metaphorical like the pieces are there 410 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 3: and that this is there. No, no, you literally could 411 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 3: have won a national championship this year. So I don't 412 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 3: want to make I want to celebrate the eighty five 413 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 3: guys in that locker room on the field. I want 414 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 3: to celebrate the coaching staff, but that's the story. 415 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 4: To me. 416 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 3: You left to go to a place to win championships, 417 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 3: and you could have won one if you stuck right 418 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 3: where you were. 419 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you were already there. Like the whole 420 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 4: goal is to get to the college football playoff and 421 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 4: give yourself a chance. And you had the team and 422 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 4: you end up going somewhere else and they're gonna expect 423 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 4: you to go there and win a championship. You were 424 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 4: closer where you were. The program was built in a 425 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 4: direction to where you were much closer really than what 426 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 4: we're seeing at LSU right now. I don't care what 427 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 4: you're gonna like what you can look in the future, 428 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 4: and do you sacrifice the present for what you think 429 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 4: might be easier later. I just I was hoping he 430 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 4: would make the other decision, but we kind of knew better, right. 431 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 4: I was saying that he would see the opportunity not 432 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,199 Speaker 4: just to win a title this year, but to be 433 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 4: a legend at a school that didn't have one, like 434 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 4: to go there and be the guy. Like when you 435 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,719 Speaker 4: think of Ole Miss football, it's going to be synonymous 436 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 4: with Lane Kiffin because of what he's done there over 437 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 4: the last half century. You know, he's been there twenty 438 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 4: five years or whatever, coaching, and like no, he goes 439 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 4: and he takes what he thinks are greener pastors, and look, 440 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 4: they may well be. I mean, I have no idea, 441 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 4: but I'm telling you this, this team right here is 442 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,880 Speaker 4: two wins away from a national championship, and if they 443 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 4: win it, I don't care how many movies, how many 444 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 4: documentaries are made about it. I'll watch every single one 445 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 4: of them, because it's just it's something that absolutely, honestly, 446 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 4: Lane Kiffen deserves. For them to go win the national 447 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 4: championship without him, that's sad, but it's true. 448 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 3: It's unbelievable and to your point, and if I if, 449 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 3: I can not make it about Lane kiff And even 450 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 3: though I do think that's the biggest story, you know, 451 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 3: I haven't seen it. You know, we're obviously live here, 452 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 3: we are live filling in for Jason Smith and Mike Carmen. 453 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 3: I haven't seen what the public's reaction is. I'm sorry. 454 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 3: If you beat Georgia in the manner that you did, 455 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 3: Trinidad Chambliss with respect, by the way, you know, I 456 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 3: know that we're all high on the Miami Uh you 457 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 3: know the Miami vibes right now, I'm sorry, I understand 458 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 3: what Mario Cristaball has done with that team. Their defensive 459 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 3: front as good as it is. George, It's got a 460 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 3: pretty good defensive front too, Like, yes, and I don't, 461 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 3: I know, you're just kind of paraphrasing what some people 462 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 3: are saying on a message board or whatever. But if 463 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 3: if you don't think that team can go on a 464 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 3: neutral field and beat Georgia, then I'm sorry, I just 465 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 3: I don't know. 466 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 4: If you don't think netral field and beat Miami. 467 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 3: To after them beating Georgia, Yeah, I I don't. I 468 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 3: actually don't understand that logic at all. I mean, listen 469 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 3: to everyone's title to their opinion. I think it's a 470 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 3: bad opinion. If you can beat Georgia in the manner 471 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 3: that you just did, I think you know you got 472 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 3: as good a shot as anybody to be beat Miami 473 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 3: and you're potentially playing for a national championship, And just 474 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 3: it is an incredible Independent of how dumb I think 475 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin is, this is also an incredible story for 476 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 3: the guys that are actually still in Oxford. 477 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, one hundred percent. I mean, I uh, I 478 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 4: know that. You know you miss out on the Carson 479 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 4: Beck that's true revenge game. You miss out on that storyline. 480 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 4: Now I'm good with that because I didn't want to 481 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 4: listen to that for the next week. Sure, Like I 482 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 4: want to see this football game because I think it's 483 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 4: gonna be an awesome football game because there's a ton 484 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 4: of athletes. I want to see what Miami's defense can 485 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 4: do against Chambliss, who's certainly gonna be able to move 486 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 4: around and get some things going. But I mean, it's 487 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 4: gonna be a whale of a football game. It's gonna 488 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 4: be awesome. But like, how can you not root for this? 489 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 4: You've got two teams, You've got the niest that was incredible, 490 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 4: and it's just the wrong year for them for me 491 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 4: because I got to pull for Old Miss to win 492 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 4: the whole thing, like even before this game, but really 493 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 4: going into the playoff, when you just looked at it, it 494 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 4: was just like, dude, man, they deserve this. They've done 495 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 4: everything right and they've been an afterthought because of what's 496 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 4: happened outside of their control. So to watch Trenidad Chambliss 497 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 4: show up and do this against Georgia. It's just like 498 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 4: he he earned this man, He's had to fight for 499 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 4: everything he has and to go out there on this 500 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 4: stage and do it to that team in this manner 501 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 4: is just it's phenomenal. It really is.
