Speaker 1: Um pistachio pistachios are not far behind. But I don't care.

37
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: If a cash you is plain, if it's roasted, if

38
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: it's salted, you can put all the cash you is

39
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: the best nut in the world. Bottom line Top three nuts,

40
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: cash us, pistachios, almonds, done no pistachios. One pistachio is.

41
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: I can eat postachios all day. But yes, I'm doing

42
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: doing good for those for those who want some football

43
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,400

Speaker 1: in Huntington, West Virginia right now, so tune in and

46
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: put some action on the game has some fun. Let's

47
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: go to you this Bob Rutherford cash you definitely show

48
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: on k hell cash you number one. That's right, boys,

49
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: that's what we love to freaking see. Dude. It's just

50
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 1: I mean, it's so delicious, dude that it's the texture

51
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: of the cash you. Honestly, at the end of the day,

52
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: there's something about that texture that once you start eating them, uh,

53
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,519
Speaker 1: you just cannot stop. I could wax photo about cash

54
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: shows all day long. In fact, I've been buying some

55
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 1: candied cash shoes sometimes here recently, which the one drawback,

56
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: one drawback, the one drawback of a cash it is.

57
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: I do believe the caloric value is pretty hot, like

58
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: you get a small bag of cash hues and get

59
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: a little out of control. Whereas believe the pistachio maybe

60
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: a slightly healthier nut and all kind of an in

61
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: between of the two. I know almonds supposed to be

62
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: good for your heart health, but um, it just lacks

63
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: a little bit where the cash or and the pistachio

64
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: th top three nuts the fourth best go ahead. I

65
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: was just gonna say, I mean, just the one benefit

66
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: of the cash you compared to my pistachio is the

67
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: fact that the pistachio are so tiny. You can have

68
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: a handful of them and feels like you're eating nothing

69
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: a handful of cashews, though a little bit more substance.

70
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: There's in there, a little bit more filling. There's you

71
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: get a little bit more bank for your buck. If

72
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: you are myself who is worried about my calories, as

73
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: I have the conundrum of do I go hit gold

74
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: balls after the show or do I go work out

75
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 1: before my game tonight? So can we have a full

76
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: Should I work out or should I go hit golf

77
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: balls in between the show and calling the game tonight?

78
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: That that's the dilemma. You don't know self control until

79
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: you force yourself to hold an entire mouthful of pistachios

80
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: and not swallow those nuts so that you can get

81
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: a single satisfying, high volume pistachio bite. Because if there's

82
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: one thing on this earth that I refuse aaron, I

83
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:54,679
Speaker 1: refuse to buy pre shucked pistachios. It's it's it's it's lazy.

84
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: It's a sign of the apocalypse. If you're buying pre

85
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: shuck pistachios, next thing, you know, you're gonna be like

86
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: the human beings and wally riding around on your little

87
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: floating beds, getting all fat and lazy. No, you have

88
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: to shuck your nuts, and when you do, hold them

89
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: in your mouth until you get to find amount, and

90
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: that's when you're gonna munch on them. No, No, I'm good.

91
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonnat appreciate if I buy pre shuck or if

92
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 1: I shuck them. I shuck them all at the beginning

93
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 1: for ten minutes. I spent ten minutes shucking what put

94
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: him in the bowl and then eat It's crazy. That

95
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: is just crazy, you know, it's funny. It's kind of

96
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 1: like crawfish culture how I eat pistachios, where I just

97
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: I normally just eat them one at a time. But

98
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: I like it. It's like you're kind of you're kind

99
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: of being um, I've been a little social um kind

100
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: of talking as you go along. It's not like a

101
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: full commitment sort of deal. Sitting there and just shocking them.

102
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: How do you not throw them in your mouth? That

103
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: too is self control. To be fair, I suppose I'm

104
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: somewhat impressed. I think, Okay, you know what, do you

105
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: know what the fourth best nut is? When you beat

106
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: the team that's beaten you for sixteen years in a row.

107
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: Let's go Tennessee for this week. I am now renamed

108
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:09,359
Speaker 1: Rocky Bob. Okay, Rocky Bob's the place for me. Fuck Alabama,

109
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: Let's go Tennessee. I think that's how the song goes.

110
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm still getting used to be in a VFL.

111
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: But as I get inducted into the fan base this week,

112
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: I hope to uh figure it out. Rob D says Murray,

113
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: if you ever come to Augusta, Georgia, we need to

114
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: play golf and I'll beat you so bad. Uh in

115
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: the bet that you have to call Papa Colin to

116
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: get your next paycheck early? Oh damn rongs? How many,

117
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: Rob D? How many strokes am I getting? What's the handicap?

118
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: Come on? How many? Not many? Really? Okay? Impressive, you know,

119
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: impressive on the rain, you know, impressive on the course,

120
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 1: maybe not as impressive in the bedroom. I've never thought

121
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: about that golf in the bedroom adversely related there. Okay,

122
00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: if you're good golf, maybe some hilarious in life. I

123
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: was about to say, I was abouna say I would

124
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: almost guarantee that there is a direct relationship between being

125
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: good at golf and bad in bed. Like that makes

126
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: all this into the world to me. You spend your

127
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: entire life on the golf course. Of course, of course,

128
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: being good at golf makes you worse than sex. That yes, absolutely, um,

129
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: just being good. And then the poll question in the

130
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: chat is being good at gold make you better or

131
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 1: worse than sex? I mean, if you're good at gold,

132
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: you're probably better at sex. To that point, I don't

133
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: know he get that nut Tennessee. I agree, Daniel Basham.

134
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: Let's go baby. Uh for this week we are all

Speaker 1: same game, parlay on the NFL game and get a

00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: ten dollar free bet. So you bet up to ten dollars, like,

145

148
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: bit later on. All right, on the topic today, we're

Speaker 1: Texas really? And as nauseating as that tease may sound,

152
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: you may be even more nauseated when you start diving

153
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: into the numbers. I thought this was a kind of

154
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: a trumped up topic. There's a bit of legitimacy there,

155
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 1: and it's it's well, it's worth talking about. Imagine that.

156
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: Then we sat down with Eric Aines just a few

157
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: minutes ago talking a little Tennessee. We'll get the former

158
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: volunteering quarterbacks if you on Tennessee going to Alabama this

159
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: weekend and then we will do what we do every

160
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 1: single Wednesday. Here, the white boards are here except for

161
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: Aaron who forgot his. We're going to use our word

162
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: as we attempt to answer some of the most challenging

163
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: questions in all of college football. All right, Aaron, Uh,

164
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: Let's dive into this top topic of the day, and

165
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: it has to do with c J. Stroud and whether

166
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: or not at this point, remember this week, Ohio State

167
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: now the favorite on fan duel and everywhere else to

168
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: win the National Championship number one, and all the analytic

169
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: rankings like FPI and SMP plus and now c J.

170
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: Stroud the betting favorite to win the Heisman. What do

171
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: you say, Murray, is it his to lose? It is

172
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: definitely his his to lose right now, and on on

173
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: on FanDuel He's at at minus one forty. The next

174
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: one is Caleb Williams at plus nine fifty. I mean,

175
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 1: that is a gigantic gap and honestly, man like and

176
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: then I'll get to why c J deserves it, But

177
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: like if I was gonna go with anyone after c

178
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: jf of someone that I want to kind of put

179
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: a little risky, risky money on for a big payout

180
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: is Dorian Thompson Robinson. I we talked about U C

181
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: l A yesterday. I believe I am a big believer

182
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: in the Bruins, Like I think they are possibly the

183
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 1: best team in the Pack twelve. You know, if if

184
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 1: if a Pack Towelf team is winning and having success

185
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: and finds a way to make the playoffs, you're in

186
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: l A. There's gonna be a lot of people pushing

187
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: to get him going and to continue to make the

188
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: Pack Towel better than what they are. So, uh, that

189
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: is someone that is super interested me. He's at plus

190
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred right now. Uh, fourth on the list Betid

191
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: Caleb obviously c J, Caleb Hendon and Bryce Young. But

192
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: I just love what he's doing out there for the Bruins.

193
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, CJ is He's in a perfect situation right now.

194
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: He's on the best team I believe right now, the

195
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: best team in the country. I know they're not ranked

196
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: number one, but I believe they should be one. They

197
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: have a very favorable schedule. He's already putting up crazy

198
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: stats without his best player. Who who's gonna be back

199
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: any week now? With with Jackson Smith and Jigba, you know,

200
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: his set are gonna skyrocket after that, and he really

201
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: only has two challenges in both games that their favored

202
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: to win, and they gotta go to Penn State, and

203
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: then they get Michigan at home to finish the season off,

204
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,239
Speaker 1: and then whoever they face in the Big Ten Championship

205
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: from the other side, they're most likely gonna blow them

206
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 1: out because outside of the conference, as we know, it's

207
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: just not very good. Like if you give me Ohio

208
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: State first, Illinois probably gonna be about a twenty point spread.

209
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: So the fact that one schedule lines up beautifully for

210
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: those guys, for him to have success, to get his

211
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: star player back, to win their conference, to be in

212
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: the playoffs, to be a quarterback crazy stats, everything is

213
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: gonna be lined up for him to go win the

214
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: Heisman this year. So yeah, he's the favorite. I don't

215
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: think there's anything gonna get in his way right now,

216
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: barring an upset against Penn State or Michigan. And if

217
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: I put my money on one of them, maybe Penn State.

218
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: They do have to go to Penn State. You know,

219
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: I'm a believer in Penn State. I think they have

220
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: a chance to beat Michigan this weekend. It would not

221
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: be surprised if they do it, setting up for a

222
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: heisman like moment for him here in a couple of

223
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: weeks against them. Uh. There in Happy Valley. Numbers are

224
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: out of control, legit at emily out of control. Uh.

225
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: Right now, c J. Stroud is first in the nation

226
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: now in the SEC right, this is a national war.

227
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: First in the nation in touchdowns at four. He is

228
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: first in the nation at yards per a tempt at

229
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: ten point nine yards for attempt nearly at eleven, which

230
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: is absurd. He's first in quarterback rating. He has a

231
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: two oh seven quarterback rating. He's the only player breaking

232
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: that two hundred barrier right now. Your boy Max Duggan

233
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: currently in second place at one. So he is literally

234
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: almost fifteen points up on the second best guy in

235
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: the country. He's completing sevent his passes, he's doing for

236
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: two eighty nine per game. I mean, this is all

237
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 1: stuff that is overwhelming. It's mind blowing, and it does

238
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: beg the question why aren't we kind of talking about

239
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: him more? And this led me down an interesting hole here.

240
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: And I know I've touched on this, uh Aaron, because

241
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: but but I hadn't started to look it up until now,

242
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: which is like sometimes I feel like Ryan Day in

243
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: Ohio State's success is so consistent and so overwhelming, uh

244
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 1: statistically that it goes by the old Stalin maxim right.

245
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: One death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic.

246
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: Like a certain point, you just keep putting up these

247
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: numbers every year. It just doesn't hit the same as

248
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: when like a Borough pops up suddenly and and and

249
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: and leads to this team, where like a Hindon Hooker

250
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: right now with Tennessee, but hind And Hooker doesn't say

251
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: any chance. Hind And Hooker has ten touchdowns right now.

252
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: And let's be clear, I think Hindon Hooker is incredible, okay,

253
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: and that touchdown number means nothing to me because he

254
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 1: affects every single aspect of the game like some sort

255
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: of master puppeteer. We're just all dancing on his strings.

256
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 1: But the point is c J strouge numbers, I guess

257
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: don't be like me and failed to give them their

258
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: just due just because we have seen this before. I mean,

259
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: I mean, look at this, Uh look at what he

260
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: literally did last year. He did for four thousand, four

261
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: hundred yards forty four touchdowns, six interceptions did yards per

262
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 1: tip justin Fields through for forty one touchdowns in twenty nineteen.

263
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins through for fifty touchdowns in eighteen. J. T.

264
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: Barrett Here's he gets been interesting. J. C. Barrett through

265
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: for thirty twenty four in sixteen. What happened between sixteen

266
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: and seventeen? Ryan Day joined the staff from San Francisco

267
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: where he was the quarterbacks coach. He joined his seventeen

268
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: Barrett does eleven more tuds, It's up the fifty next year,

269
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: and then they've just never looked back, doing over an

270
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: average of three and a half touchdowns per game since

271
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: that time. It is, it's absurd, It defies logic, and

272
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: I understand if it doesn't hit his hard, but you

273
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: have to recognize how incredible what c J. Stroud is

274
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: doing right now is. Those numbers are exactly why that

275
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: gap on Fandor right now is as large as ye.

276
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: So yeah, whether you hate it or not, it is

277
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: his award to lose at this point. I will say

278
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: that like if if if if Tennessee goes out there

279
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: and wins this weekend, so so CJ's might have won

280
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: FOURD and Fandel Henn and Hooker is at plus four dred.

281
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: If if Henn and Hooker has a game, so say

282
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: those like those two touchdowns rushes for a touchdown where

283
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: three or four tool touchdowns, I think that gap closes significantly.

284
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: I think he's like a plus eight hundred seven hundred.

285
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: So like if you feel him pretty juicy about Tennessee

286
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: having an opportunity to win the game versus Alabama, it's

287
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: going to be because Hennon Hooker has himself in afternoon,

288
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: they're at the three thirty spot Easter on CBS. So

289
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: if if, if, if they beat if they beat Alabama,

290
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: that gives a lot of people confidence that they have

291
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: a shot to go into Athens in the beginning of

292
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: November and beat Georgia. And if you beat Georgia and

293
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: you beat Alabama and you're undefeated in your Tennessee and

294
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: all that, let's played. Let's play this scenari you just

295
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: part up with with Joe Burrow here. If you have

296
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: one quarterback that is was not I mean obviously expect

297
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: to have a good season, but not expected to lead

298
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: your team to stay an opportunity to play in the

299
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: SEC Championship game. A big brand like Tennessee that have

300
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: that have come risen from the dead and are having

301
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: success and a lot of reasons why because your quarterback

302
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 1: or you have a guy in the Big ten, a

303
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: lesser conference, a little bit easier schedule, maybe not as

304
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: great of wins, and a system that we as you

305
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: alluded to, has a lot of success. I think fans may,

306
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: even with the numbers being exactly the same, maybe lean

307
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: towards the story. So yes, I agree, Like the story

308
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: is a big deal. Uh So that's why right now,

309
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: Like if you're gonna want a A, I guess you

310
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: can call it an upset when it comes to the

311
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: highsman numbers right now, you're going to need a USC

312
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: to go and defeed it. You're gonna do the U

313
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: c l A to go and defeeded. You're going to

314
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: need a Tennessee to go and defeated because you're no

315
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: one's gonna beat him when it comes to stats. So

316
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to beat it. Why they're with their

317
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: team just being better or their team making something kind

318
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 1: of unexpected run at a championship this season, But I

319
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: don't see it happening, Like I don't see like to

320
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: me right now, Oh, it's the most complete team in America.

321
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: And I just don't see Penn State or Michigan tripping

322
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: them up. And I think that's that to me, that's

323
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: the only thing that could happen. Like if he is

324
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: a bad game against Penn State on the road in

325
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, then then I think he goes

326
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: down significantly. I just I don't see it happening. Man.

327
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 1: He is everything you want. Accurate, incredible arm strength, uh,

328
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: quick release, extremely mobile in the pocket, and has some

329
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: of the best receivers in the country. So um, I

330
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: will I will say this though, or if you've got

331
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 1: like if you got like a you know, if you

332
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: just want to put like twenty bucks on it or something, uh,

333
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: just for funzies like throwing five or throwing how much

334
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: you want on Caleb Williams Hooker DTR based kind of

335
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: betting the field. I mean, there is huge value there.

336
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: If it hits now obviously that means that it's probably

337
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: not gonna hit right. But if it does, which again

338
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: it's still could Like I would say, it's not really

339
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 1: been tested in any way yet. Would you put it?

340
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: I would, Um, if you who'd you put your money on?

341
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 1: I I think. Okay, So I think you nailed the

342
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: two most realistic paths, and that is either U C

343
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 1: L A or USC going undefeated or Tennessee going undefeated. Um,

344
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,959
Speaker 1: I mean I'm still in the US realistic in my

345
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 1: mind then US. Yeah, it is, it is, it is.

346
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: No I'm talking about I'm talking about the paths to

347
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: overcoming the overwhelming numbers of c J. Stroud. I think

348
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: one of your like you said, it's the story. The

349
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: team is gonna have to fassy out perform expectations like

350
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: if n and Hooker beats Alabama and Georgia, he will

351
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: win it. So he has the most clear and direct path.

352
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: I can maybe see a world with Caleb Williams. I'm

353
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: not so sure. And DTR is interesting. I don't know

354
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: if dtrs every Yeah, but he does. He does the ring.

355
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: He's the top rating. That is true. That is true.

356
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: He's the top rating quarterback in the pack twelve right now.

357
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: Um so yeah, actually he probably I think you're right, Aaron.

358
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: He probably actually represents the best value objectively right now,

359
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: if you're gonna get the double the return on DTR

360
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: that you would on Caleb Williams. Um, all right, well, look,

361
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: we continue to revisit this as the year goes on,

362
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: but certainly as it sits today, maybe you something something

363
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: you want to act on. Right well, some of these

364
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 1: numbers are still very large. While while it is very

365
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,719
Speaker 1: much in the air that c. J. Stroud is going

366
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: to win this for sure, which as we've seen from

367
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 1: Ohio State like, is not necessarily a guarantee, I do

368
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: think there is sometimes some voter fatigue, Like we're kind

369
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: of touching on um. So that's a Heisman talk for

370
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: the day. Right now, we have to from Heisman to Texas.

371
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: It's almost like we have a long term sports producer

372
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: making this show. How good you're welcome are the Texas Longhorns.

373
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 1: I know you're doing great from thank you very much?

374
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: How good are the Texas long Horns? And you texted

375
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: Aaron Murray earlier in the group chat about how you know,

376
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 1: could Texas be the first two lost team to make

377
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: the playoff? And I scoffed, I laughed at that, and

378
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: I still don't think they will make the playoffs. But

379
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: I did not quite realize how good Texas has actually

380
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 1: been this year. Right now, in ESPN FPI Predictive Analytics,

381
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: ranking their fourth in the country and Bill Connolly's SMP

382
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 1: plus right the UM We talked plenty about the SP

383
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: If you don't know it again, it's predictive. Analytic measure

384
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: doesn't care as much about results. Is how you looked

385
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: within those games. Texas is fifth in the country. They're

386
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: ahead of an undefeated Old Miss, undefeated Tennessee, and undefeated

387
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: u C l A who are at six, seven and eight.

388
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: And when you look at their losses, you barely lose

389
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: to Alabama, who at the time was the number one

390
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: team the country. We all know how good Alabama is

391
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: and you arguably should have or could have had that one.

392
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: But the Texas Tech game is even fascinating. Like if

393
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 1: you're like, wait, how did they lose to Texas Tech

394
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: and their rank this high and all this analytics stuff,

395
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: it's because the Texas techway game Aaron, they had to

396
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 1: find a way to lose. They outgained the Red Raiders

397
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: by over two yards of play nearly two and a

398
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: half yards of play. Tech recovered all three fumbles on

399
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 1: the day from either team. Texas Tech went six of

400
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: eight on fourth down. Outside of those losses, Texas is

401
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: outscoring opportent it's forty five to thirteen there, averaging over

402
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: three yards more per play on a week to week basis.

403
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: And all of this comes without Quinn yours, who looks fantastic.

404
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 1: So yeah, what's crazy is Texas is really good. But

405
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: they may have already shot themselves in the foot, like

406
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: they may already be done in terms of playoffs, but

407
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: they're really damn good football team. No, they are a

408
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: damn good football team. And I think the thing that

409
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 1: that impresses me more than anything because we knew the

410
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: offense was going to be good, like there was no

411
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: doubt about it, Like when you got the head coach,

412
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: the guy that that is known for offense, Uh, that

413
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 1: part of the game was gonna be fine. My might

414
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: might always worry with Texas and anyone in that league

415
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: is can the defense keep up? Can they play complimentary football?

416
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: And right now they get up seventeen points per game

417
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 1: only three or thirty eight yards per game as well,

418
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: So that was a big question. Chack good, We're fine.

419
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: Next question for me on the offensive side of the

420
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: football was can you find a compliment to Xavier Worthy

421
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: like you got Bijon, He's great, one of the best

422
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: running backs in the country. You gotta Xavier one of

423
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: the best receivers in the country, probably one of the

424
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 1: best receivers in that conference. But can you find a

425
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: way to find more playmakers? Can you get the ball

426
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: in someone else's hands to break to take the pressure

427
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: off them essentially? And right now, the guy that I

428
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: didn't know if I liked or not to start the

429
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: season off, he's playing really well. Jordan Winnington catches actually

430
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: leads the team right now. So they're finding more playmakers.

431
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: They're tight and also has twenty five catches, so they're

432
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 1: getting ways to get the ballone and and and guys

433
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: hands other than Bijon, other than Xavier Worthy, so that's

434
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: a huge plus. And I think Quinn Yours, like you

435
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 1: alluded to t Bob is a stud like. He's a

436
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: stud like if he's healthy. And I think this is

437
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: the excuse that the committee may make it the end

438
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: of the season. If Quinn Yours was healthy, they may

439
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: beat Alabama and they definitely beat Texas Tech. So it's

440
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: it's it's we're not putting a team necessarily in the playoff,

441
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: which they're not supposed to based on the record, But

442
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,959
Speaker 1: who deserves to be in there, and you also look

443
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 1: at their schedule going forward, like they got some great

444
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: resume builders. Oklahoma State in two weeks, Kansas State on

445
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: November five, TCU on November twelve, and then they gotta

446
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,239
Speaker 1: play Kansas on November nine. Then Baylor, I mean you're

447
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: talking about Baylor could be back in the in the

448
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: top twenty then too. I think Baylor is a good

449
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: football team. You could finish your season off with five

450
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: ranked opponents, and then I have to play your conference

451
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 1: championship game, which is a six six ranked opponent, So

452
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna be on primetime all the time. You're gonna

453
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: get the Texas bias. You've got a great quarterback. Your

454
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: two losses were within four points total. Once again, Like,

455
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,400
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot that has to go right

456
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: for them still. But if they're if they're eleven and two,

457
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: which they would be if they win their conference championship game,

458
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: I could easily see them make an excuse once again

459
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: that hey, they would not have that record if Quinn

460
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: Yours was healthy those two games. So don't don't don't

461
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 1: forget about Texas right now, because they look damn good

462
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 1: and they looked like they should be the favorites to

463
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: win the Big Twelve. Obviously, I don't think I'm saying

464
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: anything particularly inside well impressive here. If they were to

465
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: make it with two losses, that would be shocking. But

466
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: you have kind of convinced me, right in a world

467
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 1: where maybe there's a one loss SEC team that did

468
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: not win their conference championship, I could get behind the

469
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: argument of putting a conference champion eleven and two Texas

470
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: in there, especially if they kept up some of the

471
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 1: domination that we've seen in these wins. So it's something

472
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on going forward. October eleven, twenty

473
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 1: twenty two, a day that will live in and for

474
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: me as the entire country was subjected to watching a

475
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 1: Commander's Bears game and prime time. But if you want

476
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: to make it a little more palpable, palatable, palatable, you

477
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 1: want to go ahead and take advantage of fan duels,

487
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 1: Every single Thursday, I think I might head down and

Speaker 1: as I bet both the total game under thirty seven

489
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,679
Speaker 1: and a half, the first half under nineteen and a

490
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 1: half and the third quarter under seven and a half.

491
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: Total points on fading the offense everywhere. Ten dollars gonna

492
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: win you twenty five. But look, if you think that's stupid,

493
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: which admittedly you're probably right, it probably is, you can

Speaker 1: Is this time earlier day, we got to sit down

504
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 1: with former Tennessee great Eric Aines here. Check it out.

505
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: We're back in a bit. What's up, y'all. We are

506
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 1: back with another Snaps guest, and right now it is

507
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: my pleasure to welcome in a man who I watched

508
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: dominate the greatest season in college football history, the two

509
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: thousand and seventh season, former Tennessee great Eric Gage. Eric

510
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: was up, dude, thank you so much for joining us. Yeah, boys,

511
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: glad to be here. Uh So, now Eric is host

512
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,360
Speaker 1: of the Eric Gage Show. Imagine that uh nine am

513
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: the noon every single day on sports radio w n

514
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: m L at Tennessee. Three time dad. The man who,

515
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 1: much like my own wonderful daily co host here, Eric Murray,

516
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 1: SEC record holder seven touchdowns in a single game against Kentucky. Eric,

517
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: I mean, it's tait. How did it feel, dude? You

518
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: were just in the zone, so it felt it felt cold?

519
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: First off, it was Lexington in November. It's miserable. But well,

520
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 1: here's the deal though, So it's an SEC record, right,

521
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: I mean it is through seven touchdowns in one game.

522
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: Can't deny it. You know, I'm getting older. I'll hang

523
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 1: onto that as long as possible. Um, it took me

524
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 1: four overtimes against Kentucky to do it, and they all count.

525
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: Joe Barrow did it against Oklahoma in the first half

526
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 1: of a college football playoff game. But do you know

527
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 1: what he didn't do. He didn't throw eight. He only

528
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: threw seven. So we're still tied. And hey, okay, okay.

529
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: So this is a perfect little transition here than Eric,

530
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: because a lot of Tennessee fans, in my mentions, have

531
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 1: been bringing up twenty nineteen l s U when thinking

532
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: about this year's Tennessee team, the reason being, um new

533
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 1: staff right the the second year and granted it was

534
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: Oh's third year, but if you look at the growth

535
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: from L Shot twenty nineteen l SHO, it's very similar

536
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: to the growth that you're seeing out of Tennessee right now,

537
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: even with the second year quarterback and everything else. Like,

538
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: like I know, we talked about like Tennessee could have

539
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: been a ten win team last year, just like that

540
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: l SHOOT was tenant three. Did you see similarities between

541
00:28:55,200 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: this year's Tennessee and that l SHOOT team? Uh No, Um,

542
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: they had how many first round draft picks did that

543
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: twenty nine team LSU team have? On defense? They had

544
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: a lot. I mean, clear, it's insane. It was insane.

545
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: I mean they dominated the first round of the draft

546
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: that year. Tennessee doesn't have that. Tennessee has the wins

547
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: right now, they have the hype, they have a really,

548
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: really good quarterback. I think the biggest thing that we're

549
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: doing right now is and Josh Hyppel deserves a lot

550
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: of credit in the staff for this. Every one of

551
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: our players is playing upwards of their ceiling. We have

552
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: some guy three star guys, some four star guys, but like,

553
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: they're all playing the best they can play. We don't

554
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: have first round draft picks out there, we're not winning

555
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: a national championship, but they're all playing to the you know,

556
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: for the most part, weekend in week out, they're playing

557
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: as good as they can. Yeah. Well, I think one

558
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: guy that's playing out of his mind right now is

559
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: is Jalen Hyatt. He's been like that all year and

560
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: and Nelson said it's been out. He's kind of taking

561
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: his game to another level. Brew had a great game

562
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 1: vers l Shoe. How do you slow? Like, if Cedric's

563
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: back this week, the attention will be on him, but

564
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: can you really put all the attention on slowing down

565
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: Cedric when those other two receivers are kind of doing

566
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: their thing right now. No, I mean, it's kind of

567
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: like watching Alabama in years past. You have one guy

568
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 1: that's so good you feel like you need to roll

569
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: coverage to him or inside out him, or do something

570
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: to give him some help. But the other guys on

571
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 1: the other side of the field are just as good.

572
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: So what do you do. I mean, as a defense,

573
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: do you just get stuck and you go, I guess

574
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: we'll try to take this guy away on this play,

575
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: and and maybe guests right and take that guy away

576
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: on that play and high and I love him, and

577
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 1: I know you'll agree with me. But if you have

578
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: a good slot receiver, you get the whole field to

579
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: work with. It's real hard for the fifth the third

580
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: best corner on the team to guard as stud inside.

581
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: And that's what Jalen Hiat is doing right now. They're

582
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: moving him all over the place, but for the most

583
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: part he plays in the slot. He's running the slot fades, um,

584
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: he's running dig routes, curl routes, drag. I mean, he's

585
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 1: running all of them and he's having success doing it.

586
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 1: He's been fun to watch. Yeah, it's almost like deciding

587
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: between guarding Jamaar Chaser Justin Jefferson. Give yourself over to

588
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: the analogy. Eric, Okay, it's all happening. Give me the

589
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 1: quarterback perspective on what Hypel does, because coach new Heisl

590
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: was here on snaps of this last week and he

591
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: talked about just kind of the simplistic genius of it. Right,

592
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: put your fast guys as far as you can on

593
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: the flanks, create space, let them choose him many they're

594
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 1: gonna put in the box. If they're light, you run it.

595
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: If they're not, you throw it. And then he got

596
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: to maybe a bit beyond me where he's talking about, okay,

597
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: and then you just you you you know what's out

598
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: of the field you're going to and it's a simple

599
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: high low read. How quarterback friendly is? Uh? This? This

600
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 1: this this offensive philosophy of Josh Hypel, Well, I think

601
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: it is. I mean, if you a lot of the

602
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 1: throws that our team may that the hand and hooker

603
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: makes our RPO catching get it out or quick game

604
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: type stuff, get it out before the D line can

605
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: even get there. And then it's a lot of pump fakes,

606
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: double moves, slot fades, it's kind of like we're either

607
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: throwing quick or we're throwing it all the way down

608
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: the field. The intermediate part of the field. We have

609
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: thrown balls there, and I think that's the next step

610
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: to beat an Alabama or a Georgia or someone like that.

611
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: You can't just throw it quick and throw it deep.

612
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: You got to use the whole field. So I do

613
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: think there's the next, like another step for their passing game.

614
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,479
Speaker 1: But right now it's working that we have studs. I mean,

615
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: if you throw it quick and the the guys can't

616
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: tackle her, your receivers, your little screen, little tunnel screen

617
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 1: goes for fifteen yards, it makes it a lot easier.

618
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: They have to suck up and commit to stop it,

619
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: and then you throw it over their head. It is simple.

620
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 1: What they're doing right now is it's simple. And if

621
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 1: it was easy to stop, teams will be doing it

622
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 1: right yeah, yeah, alright, So so, so what what makes

623
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: hend In so good and and why we're gonna continue

624
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 1: talking about him all year as a possible Heisman guy

625
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 1: is one tea Bob and I love the deep accuracy,

626
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: his ability to push ball verticley down the field, but

627
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: then also his running ability like if you want to

628
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: play cover too, and you want to back up and

629
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: stop the pass and not let you beat them deep vertically,

630
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: head Is is a tremendous runner, graceful, big kid, fisical kid,

631
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: can break some tackles. So if you can only have

632
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: one of those things going forward, what's the better part

633
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: of his game? Is it that the thread of him

634
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: running the football or is it the vertical passing game.

635
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 1: I I give me the vertical passing game because he

636
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: doesn't miss often. He missed a couple actually against LSU

637
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 1: before halftime. He had to cover two whole shot and

638
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: he just threw it over his head and then he

639
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: had a steam route first cover two. But you were

640
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 1: talking earlier about the splits. The safeties were so wide,

641
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: the middle of the field was wide open, and they

642
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 1: ended up hitting one on third down and got it

643
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 1: all the way down the field. But give me the

644
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: deep ball accuracy because we all know it. I mean, turnovers,

645
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: turnover margin probably the biggest difference maker in a football game.

646
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: The next one is explosive place. I mean, if you're

647
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: chunkyard and people left, left and right, you're winning football game.

648
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: So give me the ability to push the ball down

649
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: the field. But Hendon. Hendon doesn't have the best arm

650
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: in college foot ball. He's not the best runner in

651
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: college football. But I would put his decision making up

652
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 1: against anybody in the country. He does not there. It's

653
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: not like he's not just throwing picks. He doesn't even

654
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: give the defense a chance. They don't they don't get

655
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 1: their hands on the ball. They're not dropping fix. When

656
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: when he does run, he runs, you know, the pocket

657
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 1: collapses and he tucks and goes and gets five to forty.

658
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 1: You know, he doesn't overrun, He'll stand in the pocket.

659
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: And I mean, he just makes the right decision. RPOs

660
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: win to hand it, when to throw it. He does

661
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 1: the right thing on almost every single play. And I've

662
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 1: not I mean, it's it's next level. There's no one

663
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,760
Speaker 1: doing that in the country. Took that level, no Burrow

664
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 1: like decision making. To be sure. I'm just saying I'm

665
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: expected nothing less. I expected nothing less. I knew what

666
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: I was getting into coming on with you guys. It's

667
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: all good, No, I I said it on Saturday night

668
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: after Steps. The story of Last had nothing to do

669
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: with El Shoot. The story was Tennessee and the ascent

670
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: of Tennessee and Tennessee being a team right now that

671
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: is gaining in confidence, and that's a dangerous thing. They

672
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,879
Speaker 1: can't really judge going to oti against Pitt or whatever.

673
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 1: If they played again today, Tennessee would wax that ass, right,

674
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 1: And they seem to be rounding this corner, Eric, at

675
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: the perfect time, Alabama, we played a little game today.

676
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,800
Speaker 1: Things that have happened, Uh since uh, you know Tennessee

677
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 1: last beat Alabama. My parents were still together. Uh, the

678
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: iPhone wasn't invented. Uh, you had a bad Day. You

679
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: had a Bad Day was the number one song in

680
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: the country. I mean a lot has changed when you

681
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 1: look at this Alabama film, Eric, do you see some

682
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:50,680
Speaker 1: vulnerability there? I think so. I mean, they haven't played

683
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 1: an offense like cars yet. Honestly, they haven't played a

684
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 1: good offense all year long, and they have some ridiculous

685
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: players there. But we okay, we just here's a vulnerability

686
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 1: Will Anderson, and he reminds me of Jadeveon Clown. You

687
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: remember how good he was as a freshman and then

688
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 1: everyone realized how good he was and he got double

689
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 1: team or they slid the line to him every time,

690
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: and he didn't get as much production out of it,

691
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: like any good d end. Once you're the number one

692
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: thing on the scouting report. That's Will Anderson right now.

693
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 1: He doesn't face solo blocks all that much. Um, he's

694
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: still a one man wrecking shop. But if we are

695
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: running the ball up the middle and throwing the ball

696
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: really fast, he's gonna get frustrated because he'll never get there,

697
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,439
Speaker 1: you know, and they're and their their defense is gonna

698
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: get like an offensive line. The core of our offensive line,

699
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 1: T Baba, know you're like this, but we don't get

700
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 1: ran through very much. In the interior of our offensive line.

701
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: It's we are are splits are a little tighter. We

702
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: buckled down, and if you're gonna get to us, you

703
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,439
Speaker 1: gotta run the hump around the outside to get there.

704
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 1: And then Hinden makes the right choice with the ball.

705
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 1: Sometimes he'll take off and run. He'll get it out quick.

706
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna frustrate their defense and we're gonna

707
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: play fast. They're all gonna be tired. I really do

708
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: think that Tennessee will have a good day on offense,

709
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 1: even though Alabama's littered with five star players. I get that.

710
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 1: But what we do is going to present them a

711
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:03,399
Speaker 1: unique challenge if they haven't faced yet. Well, I don't

712
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think the offensive he's gonna

713
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: kick butt like there's no doubt about Like. I don't

714
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,480
Speaker 1: see many defenses slowing down handing Hooker, especially with how

715
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 1: good the receivers are playing right now yet three or

716
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 1: four deep. Jabari's playing well, running back Hendon's running well.

717
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: I love the offensive line, Like offense is not the

718
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: issue is we've seen this year for Tennessee. I know

719
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: they looked good last week first l s U, but

720
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 1: Alabama is a whole different beast, especially if their quarterbacks back.

721
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 1: What concerns you the most and are are they progressing enough,

722
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 1: especially in the secondary that may be easing those thoughts

723
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 1: a little bit. Well, having a good game plan is

724
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 1: one thing. Actually tackling Jamir Gibbs is another. I mean,

725
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: that dude is ridiculous. He's a legit four four first

726
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: round running back that can catch the ball better than

727
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,839
Speaker 1: any of their current wide receivers can. I mean, he's

728
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 1: He's ridiculous. So having a plan for having a plan

729
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 1: for him, it's gonna be a huge part of the

730
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 1: game plan. But you know L. S U what what

731
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 1: the DBS did against Florida. They were playing zone there young,

732
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 1: so you tell them cover three and they're turning and

733
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 1: sprinting to the deep third, leaving guys wide open. Just

734
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: because its zone, doesn't mean you have to leave guys

735
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: wide open, right, You still play match up. You can

736
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: still break on the football, and against LSU they did that.

737
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 1: Jane Daniels was just making some great throws, but our

738
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: guys were in position. If our guys are in position

739
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: and we can force them to make tight throws, then

740
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 1: that's how you get a random third down drop or

741
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: or a deflection. You know, they can move to move

742
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: the ball. I don't see us stopping them going three

743
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: and out all that much, but I can see them

744
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 1: moving the ball down the field. And if we're tight

745
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,759
Speaker 1: in our zone coverages, you get one slightly air and

746
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 1: throw or a guy here's footsteps and now they got

747
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 1: a pun or kick a field goal. That's the game

748
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: Tennessee is gonna have to win. They're gonna have to

749
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 1: be a bit don't break team where they're good on

750
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: third down, they're forcing field goals in the red zone.

751
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: If they can do stuff like that, then then then

752
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 1: we'll have a chance, but open field tackling, I am

753
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: a little concerned about it. We don't even know if

754
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: one of our starting safety is gonna be able to play.

755
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,439
Speaker 1: Charge of the felony I if I had to pick,

756
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: I would I would doubt even though if you read

757
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:01,840
Speaker 1: it all, I've legally he's fine. The whole thing was weird.

758
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 1: But does he get to play in the very next

759
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: football game. I don't know so that that that scares

760
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,359
Speaker 1: me a little bit too. He's a veteran player, so

761
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 1: we'll we'll see how we tackle, but we're gonna have

762
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:18,919
Speaker 1: to have a good day tackling. Speaking, everything I heard

763
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: is he's a great kid, like a leader on the

764
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:22,920
Speaker 1: football team. I believe one of the captains. I mean,

765
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 1: how surprised were you when that came out the other day.

766
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: You let me say this first. If I was in

767
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,879
Speaker 1: my house and some drunk dude came in my house

768
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: and I was there with my girlfriend kids, whoever, I

769
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,840
Speaker 1: probably would have done the same thing. You don't just

770
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,760
Speaker 1: get to have. He chased him out of the apartment

771
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: and beat him up. He was in there with his girlfriend.

772
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 1: She was scared. He chased him out there and beat

773
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,280
Speaker 1: him up. Yeah, I know, that's why you're not jesting

774
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 1: him on that much. I didn't even I think I

775
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: think he he chased him. From everything I could account,

776
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: he chased him and he brought hell with him, and

777
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: maybe he came up a little too much, you know.

778
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:04,719
Speaker 1: But still I don't pass too much judgment on that.

779
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: But I have no idea whether he'll play or not. Yeah. Yeah,

780
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: the the this too. It's funny, Eric, I feel a

781
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: kindred spirit and you right now, this this comes with

782
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: following a college program very closely, the sort of like

783
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 1: weird news stories. Tough to deal with news stories. B

784
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,439
Speaker 1: I think I can kind of understand maybe where he's

785
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: coming from there. Um, Eric, When I look at this

786
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 1: Tennessee defense, Uh, yes, they allow some chunk yardage, but

787
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 1: it feels like they're doing a better and better job

788
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: of making it empty yardage. Um, they created a lot

789
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 1: of negative plays against US. You the run defense remains

790
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: really really good. I love the experience on the d line.

791
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: They play approximately seven million people on the defensive line,

792
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: and like Texas Alabama, right Quinn yours had great success

793
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: taking the top off Obama in that one quarter. I

794
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: expect Cooker and be able to do the same defensively

795
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: Texas d line got after Alabama aid them uncoverable day,

796
00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,440
Speaker 1: created negative plays all day. Do you think this d

797
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: line can have some similar success this week? I think so.

798
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,400
Speaker 1: We have some really talented players, you know, and it

799
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 1: a lot of it depends on what Alabama's gonna try

800
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: to do. I would imagine that they'll lean on the

801
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: run game a lot and try to try to establish

802
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,840
Speaker 1: a run game. Um, So I think that's my first

803
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: concern is can we stop them from running the football?

804
00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: We all know this. The team that runs the ball

805
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 1: better and wins the line of scrimmage wins what at

806
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 1: the time percent at the time. So I need to

807
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 1: see them do that against these Alabama offensive linement because

808
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: they're all big and they're good. They're not getting a

809
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: ton of love right now. But that almost scares me

810
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: a little bit. With a Nick Saban team, everyone's treating

811
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 1: Alabama like they're we're a little sick pound puppy because

812
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 1: their number three in the country and he'll he'll wear

813
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: that out and they'll come out looking like world beaters.

814
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, they got the rap pois and no

815
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: need to manufacture it. They got motivation, no need to

816
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 1: manufacture it. T Bop. I don't want you giving him

817
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: anymore either. I know I know you, and you know

818
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: you're not above putting some rat poison out there for Alabama.

819
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 1: Don't do it. Okay, Okay, you know me, Okay, Eric,

820
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: I loathe Alabama. I literally I'm like, I'm like skip

821
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: bayliss to lebron with Alabama. Okay, I will go out

822
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,720
Speaker 1: of my way and say, find the most absurd ways

823
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: to hate on them. You will not find a bigger

824
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: Tennessee fan this weekend than me. I will be admiring

825
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,359
Speaker 1: Rocky Top all week and long. I don't give a

826
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,800
Speaker 1: damn the Tennessee. Just beat the brakes off l s U.

827
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: I hope I feel like you know. And then the

828
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,000

830
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 1: feel right now about Tennessee. Like you know what, last

831
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: week and whatever, this next weekend, we ride together. Okay,

835
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: you heard it from QB one himself. That's right, Volunteer

836
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 1: for life. Oh what air? Does that make you upset?

837
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 1: Because we're gonna whoop the ship out of your bulldogs

838
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: here in a couple of weeks. Oh you little scared.

839
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: Oh you'll be allowed a little passing success rate. Your

840
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: bulldogs are who muted? Who's Mike? Now? You son of

841
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: a gun. That's a little mean to you. So I'm

842
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 1: kind of glad it was muted. So I do no

843
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 1: say so cute vfls what I was gonna say, you

844
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: look like a little whit bitch who just got their

845
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 1: asshole plast week and now changing sides. So look, I

846
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: am not saying that I'm not tinged. I'm not looking.

847
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 1: Am I tinged with a little bit of Stockholm syndrome? Yes? Okay,

848
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: maybe so. But at the same time, like you know, mean,

849
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: I love medieval history, right, and that bold orange with

850
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: the checkerboard pattern, Uh, that speaks to me. It's the

851
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: same reason why I love Kentucky's blues with the checkerboard

852
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,320
Speaker 1: because I can see at night a stride a horse

853
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 1: and full turney regalia. Ready to ride down the Evil

854
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 1: Crimson Emperor. Let's freaking ride. I will say one thing

855
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: about this game, and we'll get more depth tomorrow when

856
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 1: we start breaking down games and who's gonna win that,

857
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 1: this and the other. But we we we look at

858
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,359
Speaker 1: Tennessee right now and they're rolling, and they're sexy. They're

859
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,759
Speaker 1: the hot team. Everyone's excited. And you look at Alabama

860
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: and they're they're kind of not playing great right now

861
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: and Bryce is banged up, and we're all counting them out.

862
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: Reminds me of last season and last year, Georgia was

863
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,760
Speaker 1: the talk of the town. Everyone's talking about the Bulldogs,

864
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: how great the Bulldogs are. And you know, Alabama probably

865
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: should have lost to Auburn, and if they're on backstays

866
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 1: and balance, they probably do lose that game to Auburn there,

867
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,399
Speaker 1: but they found a way to win. But still no

868
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 1: one gave Alabama a chance in the SEC championship game

869
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,359
Speaker 1: and they whooped the crap out of my dogs and

870
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 1: Bears them there in Atlanta. So you know, Nick Saban

871
00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: is just sitting there saying, what the hell are you

872
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,640
Speaker 1: doing doubting me? Have I not shown you for fifteen

873
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: plus years what I'm capable of doing so. Listen, I said,

874
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 1: we'll break it down more tomorrow, but just be careful, Tennessee,

875
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: coming from experience last year, high dogs, be careful. I

876
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 1: mean it's like, you know, normally he has to be

877
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:43,720
Speaker 1: like this. One writer didn't vote y'all number one because

878
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: he thinks you'll south like he has to go out

879
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: of his way to try to find motivation. Uh. None

880
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,439
Speaker 1: of that needed uh this week, But that's okay. I'm

881
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: still Rocky Bob till I die. And actually, Aaron um

882
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: your potential wagers that we may see later in this

883
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,920
Speaker 1: week would also speak to you. Beat a bit of

884
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: Team Rocky top this weekend for whatever that's worth. All right, right,

885
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: and Brumby, Uh, can you do you want to go

886
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 1: ahead and use this into our snap's favorite game show.

887
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:18,800
Speaker 1: Use your words for sure, we're doing use your words

888
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 1: the game where I asked question, you guys filling the

889
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 1: answer on your white boards, except Aaron didn't bring his

890
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: because he's not prepared. So we'll do a t Bob.

891
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: The team four weeks seven is blank? All right? This

892
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: one's are raw easy ones rang hey, folks, and it's Clemson.

893
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,920
Speaker 1: Look at that. That's right, Clipson. You say, Wait, Climson

894
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 1: versus f s U U T Bob f S You

895
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: just lost two games in a row to the two

896
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,320
Speaker 1: teams that Clemson has already beaten. Right, f SU drops

897
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,759
Speaker 1: to Wait Force by ten, didn't look particularly good, lose

898
00:46:55,800 --> 00:47:00,040
Speaker 1: to NC State nineteen to seventeen. Uh, Climpson handled and

899
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 1: c State. Obviously they had a battle with Wait, but

900
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: they found a way to win. As much as I

901
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 1: like George Travis, George Travis and that FSU offense is

902
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 1: not good enough to exploit Clemson's deep into the same

903
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: way that Hartman and company did. So how in the

904
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:17,800
Speaker 1: world did I arrive here that three and a half number, Aaron,

905
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 1: with all of the information I just laid out, Why

906
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: is it only three and a half points? If on

907
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: paper it makes no real sense? Wake, we're seven point dogs.

908
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: I want to say NC State was what six and

909
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,759
Speaker 1: a half somewhere around there? Why then, is the team

910
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 1: that lost to both of them? F SU at three

911
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,280
Speaker 1: and a half you say, oh, it's the home bump.

912
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 1: That definitely explains part of it. But something stinks about

913
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 1: this line, and there's something in the air, and it

914
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 1: smells like dabbo do do, and I I think I

915
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 1: think there's a chance at Florida State it's gonna shock

916
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,080
Speaker 1: everyone this weekend and come up with the upset. So

917
00:47:55,080 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 1: I have Clemson on major upset alert, all right, since

918
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:01,839
Speaker 1: I don't have the white board, what are we doing?

919
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: From my upset aler is there you go? Tramping my

920
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 1: hands in that spot on Nebraska over perdue Mickey Baby,

921
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:16,880
Speaker 1: Nicky Joseph, I know you're there for when from Frosty

922
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:21,240
Speaker 1: Boys to the Mickey Boys. Uh, Nebraska, and they're winning

923
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: close games. They're winning close and and they are both

924
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 1: tied for the lead in the conference on the west

925
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 1: side of the Big Ten standing. So the press has

926
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 1: got some juice. They're feeling pretty good. I think produced like, oh,

927
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 1: just Nebraska, they don't even have a head coach, Like

928
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,439
Speaker 1: we're gonna roll through them, not so fast. They better

929
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 1: they better be ready to go, because Nebraska's on a

930
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,920
Speaker 1: mission right now, uh to make Mickey Joseph their head

931
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,760
Speaker 1: coach going forward. So I think produce on a major

932
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:54,279
Speaker 1: major upset alert. Fantastic. So Aaron, the team with the

933
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: most pressure on them here in week seven is I

934
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,719
Speaker 1: think the team on the most the most pressure right now.

935
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 1: Is Oklahoma. Honestly, uh you you you lose three in

936
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 1: a row. Everyone's saying, what the hell was wrong with Oklahoma?

937
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: Why aren't they winning football games? You know? T Bob

938
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 1: just gave our head coach and f yesterday on snaps.

939
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:20,240
Speaker 1: He's an asshole, we hate him, fire him, move on whatever.

940
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 1: Like these kids, there's some of the most highly recruited

941
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 1: kids in America. They probably have never lost this much

942
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: in their life. So it's it's it's very foreign territory

943
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 1: for everyone. Now You're facing a very competitive Kansas team

944
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 1: this weekend. You're one loss away from being or essentially

945
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: having a losing record. So I think there's a lot

946
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,279
Speaker 1: of pressure right now for Oklahoma. Can they handle being

947
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,919
Speaker 1: a bad football team? Which is kind of weird to say,

948
00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: because you know, it's just it's a foreign territory, all right.

949
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,920
Speaker 1: My turn team with the most pressure on them is

950
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,920
Speaker 1: Michigan State. That's right, dude, it's gotta be And it's

951
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: very's actually, and it's very funny because it is shockingly

952
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 1: similar logic to what you just espoused. Right. Um, it's

953
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:12,319
Speaker 1: not a new coach, but a coach who was given

954
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: the full vote of confidence in the off season very

955
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,840
Speaker 1: famously now given the nine million dollar contract due to

956
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 1: some flirtation with l s u uh. And when you

957
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:26,359
Speaker 1: look right now, Michigan State, after opening by beating Western

958
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,840
Speaker 1: Michigan and beating Akron, has lost four games in a

959
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 1: row and none of them have been close, none of them.

960
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 1: They lose by eleven to Washington. They followed that up

961
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 1: by getting dominated by Minnesota thirty four to seven. Maryland

962
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 1: handles in Ohio State takes him to the wood shed

963
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:51,320
Speaker 1: to twenty. And now at home against the Wisconsin team

964
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 1: that just fired their coach, they are seven and a

965
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 1: half point dogs at home. That's an all like as

966
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 1: awful as the Oklahoma Animals eras has started out the

967
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,840
Speaker 1: Melt Tucker post big contract era is just as awful.

968
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 1: And this is a this is just a truly horrid

969
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,799
Speaker 1: feeling and and and it's so funny because they spent

970
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,319
Speaker 1: all this money and like all over their stadium. They

971
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 1: they wrote all this stuff about like drag them to

972
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,719
Speaker 1: the deep end, right, drag him to the deep end

973
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: and make him swim. Well, guess what, it doesn't look

974
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 1: like you can swim. You're not gonna be dragging anybody's

975
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: ass anywhere. Get that man a life jacket and some

976
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 1: swim lessons because Michigan State is under a ton of

977
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 1: pressure to not lose to Jim Leonard and a Wisconsin

978
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:37,120
Speaker 1: team that just fired their head coach and are somehow

979
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 1: seven and a half point favorites going to Endo East Lansing,

980
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 1: which is a tough place to play. Dude, absolutely absurd.

981
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: All right, two more here? Who is the best the

982
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 1: best quarterback in the country is I mean, uh, give me?

983
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 1: Uh did you just see? Sorry? As I'm right, I mean,

984
00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 1: what do you mean? It's of course f l hand

985
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:06,640
Speaker 1: in Hooker, hand in Hooker. No one needs more to

986
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,799
Speaker 1: their team. As I said, I'm used to Ohio State

987
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 1: quarterbacks doing that. I have not used to see uh

988
00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:17,360
Speaker 1: Tennessee quarterbacks to this beyond that, it to me is

989
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:20,320
Speaker 1: the total package with Hooker. It's the legs, it's the

990
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 1: decision making, it's the best deep ball nol of college.

991
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,720
Speaker 1: And again, it's just the overall manipulation of the game.

992
00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 1: When he is on the field, everything orbits around him.

993
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 1: His play is gravitational. And Alabama is gonna learn that

994
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,439
Speaker 1: this weekend when they get sucked into the black hole.

995
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,840
Speaker 1: That his Hogan and Hooker's arm strength. Give me Hooker

996
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,720
Speaker 1: or give me death. Don't don't, don't let the story

997
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 1: fully of who the best quarterback in America is and

998
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:50,440
Speaker 1: and don't get don't get bored because it's normal. C J.

999
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: Strout is the best quarterback in America right now. He's

1000
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:55,400
Speaker 1: the best thrower. He's the most pure thrower. He can

1001
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,799
Speaker 1: make every single three you want, like if there's if

1002
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 1: there's a guy. I looked at this when I saw

1003
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: it on the rundown of who would I want to

1004
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 1: be my quarterback? Like if it was a fantasy football draft,

1005
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 1: I had the first pick and we're picking quarterbacks. Who

1006
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 1: am I selecting? I'm selecting c J. Stroud. He's the

1007
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,880
Speaker 1: best quarterback in America. That guy is gonna win a Heisman.

1008
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 1: I you te t Bobby, you said all the stats

1009
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 1: earlier today, there's no one close to him right now

1010
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:23,400
Speaker 1: when it comes to statistical numbers, it is crazy, crazy crazy.

1011
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,160
Speaker 1: So I love Hanning Hooker. He is He's worked his

1012
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 1: way until a first round quarterback. I get it. He's

1013
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 1: probably my number two quarterback right now. But there's no

1014
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,080
Speaker 1: doubt that if I had to pick a guy to

1015
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:37,200
Speaker 1: lead my football team that it would not be C J. Stroud. Alright,

1016
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:41,240
Speaker 1: here's our final one. It is October, it is scary season,

1017
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: and Aaron, the scariest movie is the scariest movie. Is

1018
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: the only scary movie I've ever seen in my life.

1019
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 1: Uh The Ring. The Ring is by far the scariest

1020
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,799
Speaker 1: movie out there, and and I have good reasons for it.

1021
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:02,680
Speaker 1: So my sister has long dark hair. Uh So, every night,

1022
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 1: for those who have seen it, I had a TV

1023
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,839
Speaker 1: in my room and you turn it on as a kid,

1024
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 1: and it would be static until you turn an tendo on.

1025
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:14,160
Speaker 1: So every night, for seven straight nights, my sister would

1026
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:16,880
Speaker 1: come into the room, put her long dark hair in

1027
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 1: front of her face, turned the TV on the static,

1028
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 1: and stand at the foot of my bed. Uh So,

1029
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:25,799
Speaker 1: I was just I mean, I stepped with a baseball bat.

1030
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,440
Speaker 1: I almost hit her one night. So ever, and I

1031
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: used to have like bad nosebleeds as a kid too,

1032
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,359
Speaker 1: so like that week, I was getting more nosebleed. So

1033
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,480
Speaker 1: I've never watched a scary movie since The Ring, when

1034
00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, ten years old. Wow, dude,

1035
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,720
Speaker 1: Actually I have a great Ring story as well. I

1036
00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:47,239
Speaker 1: was in the theaters in junior high, and this was

1037
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: about the time that like everybody was talking about how

1038
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 1: The Ring was like the scariest movie ever, right, and

1039
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,520
Speaker 1: I was kind of terrified. But we went um with

1040
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 1: every one of the couple of boys and we're sitting

1041
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,359
Speaker 1: by a group of girls there behind us were like

1042
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 1: flirting and everything. Then the movie starts. All of a sudden,

1043
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 1: at one of the jump scare portions of the movie,

1044
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,320
Speaker 1: I hear like a commotion behind me. I turned around.

1045
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 1: One of those girls is having a legitimate seizure on

1046
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 1: the ground, like a super real seizure. They stopped the movie,

1047
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,839
Speaker 1: Fire trucks come out, everybody get their money back. I left.

1048
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,239
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is the scariest movie of all time.

1049
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: I just almost saw someone die in the theater from

1050
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 1: this movie and it wasn't even supposed to be the

1051
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: scariest part the end. And so for like a couple

1052
00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:32,400
Speaker 1: of years, I would not watch the movie all the

1053
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,520
Speaker 1: way through, and then I finally did, and well, it

1054
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 1: was pretty good. Turns out, maybe the build up was

1055
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 1: a bit more, but I will never forget that girl

1056
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,839
Speaker 1: having a seizure in theaters. That was wild. Uh, my

1057
00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:48,400
Speaker 1: scariest movie of all time. UM, it's a very odd movie.

1058
00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 1: This is a bit of uh, and some of you

1059
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:53,840
Speaker 1: may not like this. It is called uh anti Christ.

1060
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 1: It is a movie. Is it Lars Berman or somebody?

1061
00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 1: I can't remember his name. It's it's a very messed

1062
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,879
Speaker 1: up movie. UM, very dark. It's one of the few

1063
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:09,640
