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

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: a man, I'm for I've heard so many players say, well,

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: I want to be happy, you want to be happy

4
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: for Dake, Edith Steak is that woo whoo? And them

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: and Tie Welcome back to the solid rebel boys and girls.

6
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: My name is Ty hilde Brand. That guy over there,

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: the one, the only, the incomparable, still the incomparable. Dan

8
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: Rubenstein sir, how are you? I'm good.

9
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: I had actually looked up the What's Love Ashanti and

10
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: Fat Joe lyric?

11
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: Of course, of course run down it was. It was

12
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: far filthier, and.

13
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: I was not able to apply it to a conversational

14
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: back and forth with you in the way that I

15
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: generally like to because I wanted to go with the

16
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: theme of like it's about us, it's about trust, right

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: about the thematically?

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: Who do you trust?

19
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 2: After week one and I couldn't get there with a

20
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: shanty to show? So we're going to have to skip

21
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 2: lyrics this week. But either way, the song bangs. The

22
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: song's just a wonderful tune. So I just wanted to

23
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: apologize on the outset right there, because I know you

24
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 2: and everybody else comes to expect that sort of that

25
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: sort of thing at the top.

26
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:21,679
Speaker 1: But here we are.

27
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 2: I have nicknames for Saturday, I have a window of opportunity.

28
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: I have thoughts on all of the games that we're discussing.

29
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: So in that regard, I'm prepared.

30
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: But you know you're overcompensating for lack of lyrics, is

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: what you're telling me on the show right at the

32
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: top of this week two preview show. Yeah, and look,

33
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: I'm stuck with you. Now we're riding in the same

34
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: vehicle here trying to go in the right direction.

35
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: I thought you were going to actually respond to my

36
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: apology with lyrics like that you had prepared. You started

37
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 2: talking about the direction and maybe you're going wallflowers with

38
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: one headlight.

39
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I didn't know. Shout out to Jacob Dylan.

40
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,880

69
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: So typically on this show, what we're gonna do is

70
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: we're going to go through all of the Week two action.

71
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: We're going to give our picks, we're going to give nicknames,

72
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: we're going to play sounds. We're gonna have a grand

73
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: old time. But because it was Labor Day weekend and

74
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: we had some games played, one game played on Sunday,

75
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: we had another game played on Monday, we do need

76
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: to start there before we go any further, just to

77
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: fully close the loop on a really exciting week one,

78
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: it got more exciting on Sunday night. I didn't it

79
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: it it for sure did it. I'll be honest with you, Ty,

80
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: I did not watch a lot of Notre Dame Florida

81
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: State Live good. I was pretty burnt out on life,

82
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: just kids flying everywhere, and was up very early prepping

83
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: for the Sunday show, and I said, you know what

84
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna take some day in time.

85
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 2: I watched the US Open tennis, and I watched the

86
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 2: entirety of Notre Dame Florida State early Monday morning.

87
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 1: What a ride? What a ride? Yeah? Four hours riding

88
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: sidecar with Greg McElroy.

89
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: Wasnd out about it.

90
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: Was a challenge, but no, look this game here. Notre

91
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: Dame wins forty one to thirty eight in overtime. I

92
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 1: was impressed with elements of both teams in this game.

93
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 1: First and foremost, I almost feel like I owe a

94
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: personal apology to Jack Cohne, who, in his first start

95
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: for Notre Dame on the road, looked damn impressive. They

96
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: did different things with Jack Cone than they did with

97
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: Ian Book. A lot more of those one on one

98
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: deep balls where he just heaves it up and doesn't

99
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: think twice about it like Book used to before he

100
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: would scramble for four and a half yards. Jack Cone

101
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: is trying to take advantage to some shots where he

102
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 1: saw the one on one matchups, and so because of that,

103
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: he finished with three sixty six and four touchdowns. Also

104
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: had a pick, but looked way better than I expected,

105
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: especially on the road. Florida State did exactly what I

106
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:33,239
Speaker 1: worried about, and that was they used a defensive line

107
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 1: that is definitely better than last year to bottle up

108
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: the Notre Dame rushing attack, and they forced Jack Cone

109
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: to beat him, and Jack Cone did beat him. Ultimately,

110
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: Jack Cone beat him again three sixty six and four touchdowns.

111
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: The problem for Notre Dame was that they went into

112
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: cruise control in the fourth quarter when they were up

113
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: eighteen points. They stopped blitzing. They could have blitzed all

114
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: day and gotten through the Florida State offensive line. Jeff

115
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: Travis was constantly on the back foot. Yeah, Jordan Trask

116
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: excuse me, ended up throwing three picks and like they

117
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: could have done that all game, they decided not to

118
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: do that in the fourth quarter, and then Florida State

119
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: came back. Florida State came back. Jordan Travis loses his helmet,

120
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: Mackenzie Milton comes in leads a heroic drive. It was

121
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: the story of the game as unbelievable shovel pass, by

122
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: the way unbelievable shovel pass, I think. I think Bill

123
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: Connolly put it best in his recap of the game

124
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: when he said that Notre Dame defied the script writers

125
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: in winning this game by a forty one to thirty

126
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: eight margin in overtime. For as impressed as I felt

127
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: about Jack Cohne, that was how I felt about the

128
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: Florida State defensive line. They did a really good job.

129
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: The defense as a hole did a pretty good job

130
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: bottling up the Note Dame run game more than expected.

131
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: I don't fully understand why they didn't start Milton from

132
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: the jump.

133
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: So Supposedly he didn't have a great camp, and I

134
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: don't know if that's a combination of learning the offense

135
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: and looking like he was in a rhythm. I don't

136
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 2: know if it was a physical element. Obviously that has

137
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,919
Speaker 2: to play some kind of role in things, but apparently

138
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 2: his camp was not all that great. And you know,

139
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: didn't Brian Kelly say something like, going in, we're expecting

140
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 2: Jordan Travis to be the guy.

141
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: I think we even called it out that Jordan Travis

142
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: was expected to be the starter. But it was clear. Look,

143
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: it was clear Mackenzie Milton's a better thrower for sure.

144
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: I didn't know if it was a line thing. I

145
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: didn't know if it was a health thing. Whatever it was,

146
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: he came in, he looked dynamic. He couldn't quite get

147
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: the job done. There are things that both teams need

148
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: to clean up. But if you're a Florida State fan,

149
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 1: you come away feeling really good about what you saw,

150
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: especially on defense. And if you're a Notre Dame fan,

151
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: I think you can calm some nerves around the quarterback

152
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: situation and out wide. Look, Michael Mayer's got to clean

153
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: up some of those drops. But whether it's Joe Wilkins

154
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: or Kevin Austin who looked really good for Notre Dame,

155
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: he's the one who caught the longer touchdown you yeah, yeah,

156
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: I mean he's had trouble staying on the field his

157
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: first couple of seasons in South Bend. If he can

158
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: stay on the field, he's going to be a problem.

159
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: He's a big, physical receiver. So a lot to like

160
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: for both sides of this one. And I thought just

161
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: a really fun game on Sunday night, would prefer less

162
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: of an anxious situation headed into the fourth quarter up eighteen,

163
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: But Nur Dame eventually gets a job done. It's a

164
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: nice win for them on the road. Yeah.

165
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 2: I mean, say, which will about whatever Florida State is

166
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 2: this year, which we still don't know, But for Jack

167
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 2: con In that first start to go into that big

168
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: emotional environment with an improved Florida State to defense, you know,

169
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 2: the transfers playing a role. I anticipate Florida State improves

170
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,840
Speaker 2: this year. What that actually means in terms of wins

171
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: and losses.

172
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: Who knows. Tough schedule really, that was sort of an

173
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: immediately trappy spot for the Irish and to come out

174
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: of it in overtime with a win even though they

175
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: were favored by a lot more and you were on

176
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: Florida State early. You can toot your own horn in

177
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: terms of the spread. Just too many variables. Sure, the

178
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman thing is going to be written about and

179
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: talked about a lot. Him coming over from Cincinnati does

180
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 1: run the attacking aggressive scheme, maybe even more so than

181
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: Clark Lee and just stop being some tackling issues are

182
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 1: early jashn Corbin busted that long run. Yeah, but stop

183
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: being aggressive, stop attacking in the fourth and that came

184
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: back to almost bite them.

185
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: Sure, and that's maybe not always on him. That could

186
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 2: be an edict from above, but yeah, good win from

187
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 2: uh And by that I don't mean God, I mean

188
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 2: to be clear. Yeah, get when you're clunkers at times.

189
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: That that fourth quarter was kind of clunky for Notre

190
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 2: Dame and they won it impressively at times, and uh,

191
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 2: Louisville was not impressive. Stole miss there's that.

192
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: Forty three to twenty four was the final Louisville was

193
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: down twenty six to nil at half. The Old Miss

194
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 1: defense was better than expected. The Old Miss offense looked very,

195
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: very solid, but Louisville was borderline uncompetitive. Yeah for large

196
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 1: and had their head coach, had their head coach available.

197
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: That was an advantage. I got. Sadderfield was there, Lane

198
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: Kiffin was not. He was dealing with some COVID But

199
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 1: I don't know what directionally this means for Sadderfield at Louisville.

200
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: But in a big spot opening kickoff, the stage is

201
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: yours on Labor Day evening, just a total goose egg

202
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: Man did not look did not look good at all.

203
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 2: No offense in a bad place. The other Louisville offense

204
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 2: isn't quite bad place. There was in both ways. There

205
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 2: was undisciplined moments with the targeting stuff that you went

206
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 2: down in the first half, especially a lot of yellow

207
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 2: flags on the field. But yeah, I mean if Ole

208
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 2: Miss has a defense with a pulse the West, I

209
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 2: mean maybe not the very top of the SEC West,

210
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: but maybe the top fifteen, top twenty nationally, and the

211
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: West becomes more interesting, no doubt about it. They've got

212
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: receivers stepping up. No Elijah More obviously Matt Corroll looked

213
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 2: really good at times, The offense looked creative everything we

214
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 2: came to expect out of Ole Miss, and Louisville has

215
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 2: a lot to clean up or a lot to think

216
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 2: about with regard to its future. I think, by the.

217
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: Way, Matt Carrel still a little bit of Baker Mayfield

218
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: in him.

219
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: Perkerkurve stream, that's that's an all time fantasy thing item

220
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 2: that I came up with, and I'm a little bit

221
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 2: of Baker, extremely proud a little bit of Baker Mayfield.

222
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: Shall we dive right into week two? Also, Randy Edzel's Donzo,

223
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, where's my sound hold on Dunze? I think

224
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: Yukon football is just kind of trending. Dunzo decided he

225
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: was going to retire at season's end, or maybe was

226
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: told to retire at season's end, and then, per a

227
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: statement from the AD, they had like a come to

228
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: Jesus meeting and decided now it's just we're just going

229
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: to do this right now. We need a new voice

230
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: to lead the Huskies program after they lost to Holy

231
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: Cross from a week ago. And so I guess our

232
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: sexier the Netzel game is now officially done. So yeah.

233
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 2: Bruce Feldman, diplomatically of the Athletic said, fireworks in the

234
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 2: locker room contributed to the situation that unfolded. So Randy

235
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 2: Edzel no more. And look, any program is better once

236
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 2: you ditch Randy Edzel. So settle happy, Happy for the Huskies.

237
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 2: But I don't know what the future holds for Yukon

238
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: football without a conference, without a lot of support in

239
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 2: terms of what you need to succeed as an FBS program.

240
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 2: So it doesn't look great long term.

241
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: Let's dive in week two. Week two. We made it

242
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: through week one unscathed, relatively unscathed. Yeah, here we are

243
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: Week two. Week two not as filled to the brim

244
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: with headliners with incredible action. Frankly was studying for you

245
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: and I. There just were fewer games that I think

246
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: are on the national radar than week one. Typical okay,

247
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: But as I think we've come to know on this podcast,

248
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 1: those are the weeks that get you, aren't they?

249
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

250
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: Those are the weeks that get you. And one of

251
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: the things I was looking for because you see it

252
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: all the time when you go from week one to

253
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: week two, overreactions, over reactions in both directions or bounder

254
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: reactions or wherever. Yeah, but the overreactions to me are

255
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: always something you have to look forward to in week two.

256
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 1: Did a team perform well? Did a team not perform well?

257
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 1: Humans are emotional creatures, Dan, We make our bets, We

258
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: set our point spreads based on that very emotion and

259
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: which side of the bed is getting more money. So

260
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 1: I went through, I did my best to do some homework,

261
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: and we're going to call out a couple of those

262
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: headlining games. We're going to call a couple of those

263
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 1: overreactions out that I think are useful for those folks

264
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:46,599
Speaker 1: who are playing to run the board game, trying to

265
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: get on our board of trustees. So ridiculous do we have?

266
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 1: Who is the Week one winner? I think his name

267
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: is Frank, right, Frank, Yeah, correct, shout out Frank ten

268
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 1: out of ten? Are you kidding me? Frank? Perfect? Ten?

269
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: Amazing it. Look he's bored material board material. But it's

270
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: a long application process, absolutely long application process. So shout

271
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: out Frank. You're absolutely right.

272
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's overreactions and it's figuring out just what Week

273
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 2: one does or does not mean based on opponent, based

274
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 2: on you know, was a team look trying to look

275
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 2: especially vanilla in preparation for week two, Right, they didn't

276
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 2: want to show too much? Or is an issue that

277
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 2: that popped up in week one an actual issue that's

278
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 2: going to plague that team all year long? Or is

279
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: a team that looked pretty incredible week one? Is that

280
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: truly who they are? Was it an opponent thing? Was

281
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 2: it a situation thing? So there's a lot to take

282
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 2: into account. I love going into this week, and I

283
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 2: mentioned this on our premium newsletter available to Certified, the

284
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 2: premium premium for ballers, that I love that we are

285
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: trying to extrapolate with basically no data.

286
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: Because it's just it just takes. It just takes all

287
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: this point. Man, It's just this is my gut. This

288
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: is what I feel about Tony Gibson in the NC

289
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: State defense. This is what I feel about Arkansas struggling

290
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: against Rice in the first half. Like I all of

291
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: those things, they're just takes from the gut. So I'm

292
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: ready to fire them off. I'm calling this weekend. So

293
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: can scrub Saturday? You can, you can take its exception. Yeah,

294
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: you're soaking up what happened in week one, Right, you're

295
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: trying to figure out exactly what happened, one went right,

296
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: what went wrong, and if things did go wrong, you

297
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: gotta scrub them off, like dead skin at a spa time.

298
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: You gotta just gotta scrub off week one. It's personal

299
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: to me Stone.

300
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you got to you gotta get the flaky scally

301
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 2: skin off. So you know it's personal. I guess because

302
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: Oregon needs some scrubbing off of what what happened against

303
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 2: Fresno State Washington. Some some teams that had less than

304
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 2: desirable performances heading into bigger matchups this week, but soaking

305
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 2: as in, look, we've got some We've got some teams

306
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: that played bigger matchups in Week one, maybe stepping down

307
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 2: a little bit in terms of opponents. So just cold

308
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: tub time, you know, get rid of that lactic acid.

309
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: Soak it up. It's a long year, so I have

310
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: I have soaken scrub Saturday. I like that. I like

311
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: that a lot. I was as you were describing it

312
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: to me, I was thinking, show us your or Saturday,

313
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: but soak and scrub. More to the point, I like

314
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: the explanation. We're gonna roll with that. Also, one thing

315
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: we do have this week that we didn't last week,

316
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: A very real window of opportunity. So for those new listeners,

317
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: the window of opportunity. Coincidentally enough, the windows two thousand sound.

318
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: I don't know how that got on here. It's mindful

319
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: of the fact that not everybody is a mutant like

320
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: Dan and I. Maybe you gotta go to home depot.

321
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: Maybe you gotta go see a move, Maybe you got

322
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: to pick up the kids, you got to drop them off,

323
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 1: or soccer practice. Maybe you want to go see Cats.

324
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're playing Cats right now, whenever

325
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: they're into I.

326
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 2: Don't know how robust the live theater scene is. Don't

327
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: think it's doing everywhere. Yeah, just a hunch.

328
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: Window of opportunities when you can go out and do

329
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: those things and still come back and watch college football.

330
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: Get the gist of the weekly action. I think this

331
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: is a great week to do a date night. The

332
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: window of opportunity is good because you can tell perhaps

333
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,360
Speaker 1: a significant other children like, here is my desired schedule

334
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: this Saturday. Can we plan a little bit around it.

335
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: I would say, go out, order in, watch a movie,

336
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: go play mini golf. Whatever you're comfortable doing right now. Yeah,

337
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: whatever you're comfortable doing right now on a Saturday. Evening.

338
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: I think you can get away with it. Unless you're

339
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: a very specific fan of Texas or Arkansas or Washington

340
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: or Michigan. I think you can get away with it

341
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 1: on Saturday night. Go out early evening, go to dinner, movie,

342
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: whatever you're into. You'll come back later. You can catch

343
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: the end of the Holy War, which is a late

344
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: kick and it's usually a pretty good game. And if

345
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: it's anything like what we saw this past week with

346
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: Notre Dame, yeah, a four four and a half hour game,

347
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: you can very easily catch the end of some of

348
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: that other action that you might otherwise miss. And i'd frank,

349
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: I don't know how good those games are going to be. Anyway,

350
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 1: we'll discuss it here.

351
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 2: The whole season might. By the way, the whole season

352
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 2: might be the window for Washington after this past weekend.

353
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,479
Speaker 2: So that's poor, yeah, and I'm not happy about it.

354
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 2: I want Washington to be pretty good.

355
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: I would say, maybe don't leave, but maybe play game

356
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:13,719
Speaker 1: night and have you know a TV on in the background.

357
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: It's still college football, it's still weak. Two. Maybe take

358
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 1: this opportunity to you know, really practice a new recipe

359
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: you're looking to try out, but have the TV on nearby,

360
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: But I don't think it commands one hundred percent of

361
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: your attention and listen if you are out, if you're

362
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: on the go, if you're taking advantage of that window

363
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 1: of opportunity. Check in with our friends over at the

364
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: College Football Blitz. We talked about this last year. It's

365
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: an incredible, incredible listen. Drown out your whining kids in

366
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: the backseat and just get that red zone audio experience

367
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: as you're out and about and need to stay current

368
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 1: with what's going on around the college football globe. This

369
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: is the secret sauce for me for years trying to

370
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: stay up to date. I'm on the go, I'm trying

371
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,479
Speaker 1: to live a normal life. On the weekends Saturdays, starting

372
00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: at noon Eastern, It's on ESPNU Radio, Got SERIOUSXM. It's

373
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 1: channel eighty four, or you can listen via the Varsity

374
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 1: Network app. It is a live whip around. I love

375
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: the word whip around, whip whip, It's a whip around.

376
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: They cover every game in the top twenty five. You

377
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: can hear the scoring as it happens. It's called by

378
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 1: each school's hometown radio crew. They only do like I

379
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 1: think it's three commercial breaks per hour, It's amazing, which

380
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 1: gives you fifty six minutes of live play by play

381
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: hosted by Steven Hartzel, who's a wizard. Dude's a wizard.

382
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, as the host of this thing on how

383
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: he does it. It's amazing. College Football Blitz again. You

384
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: can listen to espn U Radio Serious XM Channel eighty four,

385
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: or the Varsity Network app. And by the way, as

386
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,479
Speaker 1: a really important resource for those of you college football fans,

387
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: every Thursday, we post on our website what we call

388
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,639
Speaker 1: the Solid Slate. Connor, one of our boys here on

389
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: the Soliverbal team, puts together, goes through the whole list,

390
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: tells you what to watch on the big screen, small screen,

391
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: and watch on your app. I was a little skeptical

392
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: looking at his picks last week. His picks were right

393
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: on the money. Nailed it, yeah, right, like, totally nailed it,

394
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: perfect ten stuck the landing. So check it out. We'll

395
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: make sure we tweet that out as well on Thursdays.

396
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: But Connor does an awesome job for us. That said,

397
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: the headliner of the day is a high noon Dan Eastern. Yeah,

398
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: it is your Oregon Ducks on the road in the

399
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: horseshoe squaring off against Ohio State. Ohio State is favored

400
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: by fourteen. Listen. As we said at the very top,

401
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: because of the overreactions. Week two is always the hardest

402
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 1: to predict in my book, because you just don't know

403
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 1: how much a Week one you take. You don't know

404
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: how much of the research from the previews still pertains

405
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: to the team that you saw in week one. Both

406
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: teams in this case obviously have some cleanup to do.

407
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,719
Speaker 1: The game against Fresno was closer than or would have liked.

408
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: On the Ohio State side. Ohio State gave up some

409
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,439
Speaker 1: yards in the ground. They gave up more points than

410
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: I think they will be comfortable giving up against a

411
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: better team, like an organ that's got more firepower. First

412
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 1: and foremost, we are recording this on a Tuesday morning.

413
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 1: What is the status of kvon Thibodeau?

414
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 2: Supposedly going to be updated midweek, so could be after

415
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 2: we record today tomorrow Thursday. From everything I've heard is that,

416
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 2: you know, obviously X rays were negative. I think it's

417
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 2: his ankle, sprained ankle. He's been in a boot, but

418
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 2: seems to be feeling pretty good. That's what I've heard.

419
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, well, you know, everything is I'm sure

420
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 2: it's going to be a game time decision or something

421
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 2: like that just for gamesmanship. But the other important part

422
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 2: of that of the defense and availability is that Jamal

423
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 2: Hill and DJ James, two starters in the secondary who

424
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 2: missed that Fresno game, will be back from being suspended

425
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 2: after an arrest involving pellet guns. Right, They'll be back,

426
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 2: which should help. I don't know the exact details of

427
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 2: why they were suspended, just to his pellet guns and

428
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 2: riding around and not doing super legal things. So if

429
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 2: they shouldn't be back, that sucks. If they've served a punishment, great,

430
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 2: so Oregon's defense will be closer to its ceiling and

431
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,879
Speaker 2: it will be at its ceiling if Cavon Thibodeau is

432
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 2: back and feeling good, we.

433
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: Will update you on Friday as part of the WSV

434
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 1: News Radio Update show that we do on Fridays if

435
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: we get more information. Excuse me on Thibodeau. But that

436
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: being said, I think that's a really important storyline to

437
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: follow because if he's out, I'm going Ohio State minus

438
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: the number. He's just way too important to this defense.

439
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: I know they had some other guys out, but the

440
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: defense changed after he went down against Fresno. It was

441
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: a different feel to it. And one of the other

442
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: things that I thought of was on the Ohio State side,

443
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: do they have that one guy? Do they have that

444
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: one guy in the same way that Thibodeau would affect

445
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: the defense for Oregon, Like if Chris Olave goes down,

446
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 1: or Garrett Wilson or yeah, just anyway, is there any

447
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: one player for Ohio State that if that guy goes down,

448
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: it's going to change how I feel it's going to

449
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: swing my opinion in favor of Oregon. And I think

450
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: the answer is no, because they have too many dudes.

451
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: Well CJ. Stroud goes down, Ohio State's in a bit

452
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 1: of a bind. But yeah, they're in a bit of

453
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: a bind, but they could almost like run the wildcat

454
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: and still win. They're so talented that I feel because

455
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: of that, very confident Ohio State's gonna win this game.

456
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: For me, the real issue is the pointspread, which we'll

457
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: discuss more in detail, I'm sure, but I'm very confident

458
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: that Ohio State is going to come out of this

459
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: game and win. Okay, I don't think that's a wrong take.

460
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 2: Going into Week one overall, but also with this game,

461
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 2: it's it's basically find finding the not as right? Is

462
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 2: Oregon not as playing on offense as they appeared to

463
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 2: be last week? Is Anthony Brown not as inconsistent and

464
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 2: skittish in running the show that he showed, especially in

465
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 2: that first half and stretches of that second half.

466
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: Which is there are only two halves?

467
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 2: Is Ohio State not as able to be pushed around

468
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 2: on the ground as they seem to be with mo

469
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 2: Ibraheim and Minnesota? Are they not as questionable in the

470
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 2: secondary as they look at times last year against some

471
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 2: of the better teams they played and against some of

472
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 2: them not so great teams that they played right, So

473
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 2: there's that not as element, And there was the weird

474
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 2: personnel situation guys playing that weren't necessarily starters, large stretches

475
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 2: of the first half against Minnesota. So there's a lot

476
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 2: of not as in this game. To me, I mean,

477
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 2: I've been asked this question anytime I've gone on the

478
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 2: radio all off season long, basically like how does Oregon

479
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 2: beat Ohio State? What is the formula for how Oregon

480
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 2: is constituted? And how do they win? Because Ohio State's

481
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 2: clearly the visual better team, like they're the obvious better

482
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: team right now. And if we look at recent history,

483
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 2: it's having dudes in the past game combination quarterback, offensive line,

484
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 2: wide receiver who can hit bigger electric plays and really

485
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,639
Speaker 2: stress them out or on the other side of the ball,

486
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 2: really limit Ohio State through the air like Northwestern was

487
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 2: able to do and really frustrate justin fields in the

488
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 2: Big Ten Championship game. Now, what Alabama does is different.

489
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 2: Alabama's a different animal whatever. They can do anything they want.

490
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 2: But in terms of the mortals, the mere mortals like

491
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: Indiana and Northwestern and teams like that, I think Oregon

492
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,880
Speaker 2: has elements of that, but I don't think it's together.

493
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 2: I don't think it's fully baked. Whatever Oregon is going

494
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 2: to be at its best this year, I don't think

495
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 2: it's ready to happen against Ohio State. That said Mario Cristobal,

496
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 2: Oregon teams come to play in these big games against

497
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 2: these big opponents, they don't always win. They came to

498
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 2: play against Auburn a couple of years ago, lost close.

499
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 2: Usc they've beaten these past couple seasons. Right in these

500
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 2: bigger matchups, Wisconsin and the Rose Bowl. So it didn't

501
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: happen as Iowa State last year. But by and large,

502
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: these Oregon teams are ready for big moments. I think

503
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 2: we're going to see a much more creative Oregon offense.

504
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 2: I think they were saving wrinkles and they were their

505
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 2: intentionally vanilla, which almost cost them against Fresno State.

506
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: But I like the points here. I'm going to take

507
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: the points interesting. But I just I don't think Oregon

508
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: has the juice to win this game. I just don't

509
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 1: think they do. Yeah, I mean so I think they

510
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: could lose by nine or ten. I think, you know,

511
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 1: if I had to guess, I think it's gonna be

512
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: something like thirty four to twenty four. I think that's

513
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: a fair taked in. I also went back and was

514
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: looking through what Joe Morehead did in twenty sixteen and

515
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. At the time, he was with Penn State,

516
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: and he had Trace mcsorly and say, different defenses for

517
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: Ahiose State, different coordinators, but yeah, very different. But that

518
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: was sort of a masterclass in how you call offense.

519
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: He was so good as a play caller in those games. Now,

520
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: the difference is obviously that offense ran through Trace mcsorely,

521
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: and Anthony Brown is not Trace mcswirley. He's just not

522
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: and may have the most physically dominant running back of

523
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: the modern how continued. So it's not a perfect analog,

524
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 1: but I remember going into those games, one of the

525
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: talking points was that the Ohio State defense was going

526
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: to overmatch Penn State's offense. Penn State, with a couple

527
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: key players, did a really good job of keeping that

528
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: game close. They won one, lost one in those two years.

529
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: Can Joe Morehead call another masterclass here? Perhaps? What scares me, though,

530
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: is the Anthony Brown thing. I just don't know how

531
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: much you can trust him. I don't I look at

532
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: the over under. I see sixty three and a half

533
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: that teeters on the brink of a shootout. Generally, if

534
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: I'm looking at a game where I'm getting fourteen fourteen

535
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 1: and a half points on either side and it looks

536
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: like it could be a shootout, I'm going to take

537
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 1: the points, right. Ninety nine percent of the time, I'm

538
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 1: going to take the points. I just don't know if

539
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: I can trust Anthony Brown to go mano amano. And

540
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: that's my hesitation here. Can you make me don't know.

541
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 1: I think it's sounds like, you know, well, I'm trying

542
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 1: to give him beteterfit of the doubt. Okay, Yeah, I

543
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,719
Speaker 1: think the answer is no. Okay, I think the answer

544
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: is no because it takes two to tango and in

545
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 1: order for Oregon to go mono amano and stay in

546
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: this game if it's a shootout, he's making plays with

547
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: his arms. He's making plays with his legs, maybe both arms,

548
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, avoiding the big turnover. I'm just not

549
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: there yet. So I'm going to go Ohio State forty

550
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 1: one to twenty four in this game. I think it's

551
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,959
Speaker 1: a situation where they pull way late. I think it's

552
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: a situation where they pull away late. Maybe there's a

553
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: big play in the fourth quarter and that springs them loose.

554
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: I'm also, for what it's worth, not completely sold in CJ.

555
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: Stroud because he came out last week and he was

556
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: juiced up. Man, he was missing throws too, So this

557
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: is arguably the final stat line in a like subpar

558
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: efforts for him. It's quintessential when you're clunkers in terms

559
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: of person like. He eventually found.

560
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: Open dudes and got into a rhythm and you know

561
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 2: even though it was an uneven performance, nice uneven performance

562
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 2: to have.

563
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: I think in summary, what I'm saying is I like

564
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: Ohio State minus the number because they're at home, because

565
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: they have the better team across the board, they have

566
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: more playmakers.

567
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 2: I don't have a specific ability to rebut any of

568
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 2: those points, I think they're all completely reasonable.

569
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: So we disagree with Let's go to four point thirty

570
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: on ABC DAN. It's the Syhawk Trophy game Iowa on

571
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: the road at Iowa State. Iowa State's about a three

572
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: and a half four point favorite, depending where you look.

573
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: It's been an interesting ride here for the Hawk guys.

574
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: Since losing on Halloween of last year by one point

575
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: to Northwestern, the Hawk guys have won seven in a row,

576
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: and they've been mostly dominant in that stretch. They've also

577
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: won the last five meetings between these two teams. They

578
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: didn't play last year because of COVID, but Iowa has

579
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: had a lot of recent success in this matchup. The line,

580
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: as I said, three and a half four. The over

581
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: under is forty five. So Vegas is looking at this

582
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: one like the rest of us, basically daring you to

583
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: take the over in what amounts to an NFL score,

584
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: and they're saying that someone's basically going to win this

585
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: game twenty four to twenty one. Somewhere in that ballpark.

586
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: Mm hm. At time of recording, eighty seven percent of

587
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: the bets are on the Iowahawk guys, Yeah it is.

588
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 2: I was kind of shocked by this line, given this

589
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 2: success Kirk Farns has had against Matt Campbell. But I

590
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 2: get it at the same time because there does appear

591
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 2: to be a mismatch of Spencer Petris throwing into good

592
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 2: defenses hasn't been great. It hasn't been great. And what

593
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 2: Iowa was able to do in terms of getting points

594
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 2: last week against Indiana, we had the two pick sixes

595
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 2: in the long, very early run. I think it was

596
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 2: pretty early from Tyler Goodson. So super encouraging because again,

597
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 2: score your points however you can. But against Iowa State,

598
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 2: given the defense, and you know, given the struggles of course,

599
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 2: whatever they were doing in terms of not showing too

600
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 2: much against Northern Iowa last week, I hesitate and I

601
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 2: worry that in a close game, I'm still going to

602
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: trust brock Party more, especially at home. That's over Spencer Petris.

603
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 2: And but at the same time, you can also reasonably

604
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 2: see brock Party throwing three picks into this Iowa defense.

605
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 1: Totally, so totally. The line caught me off guard too.

606
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 1: I do agree with you. I think this is a

607
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: game where there is something of an overreaction element totally.

608
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: People are going to look at the scoreboard and say

609
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: Iowa was dominant over Indiana. They were dominant over Indiana.

610
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: There were two pick sixes that helped inflate the score

611
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: a little bit. Great, but it's a rivalry. They're getting points.

612
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: They've had a lot of recent success. You take into

613
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: account what happened Indiana, you take into account what happened

614
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: in Iowa State. Iowa State did not look impressive against

615
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: Northern Iowa, and as our bar owned Travis May who

616
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: writes again Sneaky Stats every Monday morning on soliverbal dot com,

617
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: as he pointed out, people are gonna look at the

618
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: box score. They're going to say, Okay, neither team logged

619
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: a passing touchdown, but neither team logged more than eighty

620
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: rushing yards or ten total points. I'm happily going to

621
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: take the points in this game. Feels like sure a knockdown,

622
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: drag out rivalry. Game, you throw out the records both

623
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 1: want to know, but throw them out a matter syhawk

624
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,719
Speaker 1: game or taking the points.

625
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 2: By the way, just trendy Nuggets tie Kirk Farnson's twenty

626
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 2: sixteen three and seven against the spread as a road dog.

627
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 2: So Vegas kind of has Iowa pegg as a road

628
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 2: dog just in the last four or five years. But

629
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 2: in case you're wondering about other sort of elements of it,

630
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 2: four and one, Kirk Farns four and one, Iowa team's

631
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 2: four and one hitting the over in these matchups as.

632
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: A road dog, I would not want to go anywhere

633
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 1: near the over in this game. I think it's going

634
00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: to be super conservative. I don't know how many points

635
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: Iowa scores. They've been better running the football over the

636
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: last seven games, that more creative, yep. But I still

637
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: think Iowa State it's a better team, and that that

638
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: was what just got stuck in my cross. I was

639
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: looking for reasons to take the points here because I

640
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: do like Iowa a lot, but I just think this

641
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: is such an overreaction prone game after what we saw

642
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: in Week one. Iowa State's a better team. They've got

643
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: more experience, They're going to be amped up for this game.

644
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: Matt Campbell, we talked about Oregon and Marry Crystabaal coming

645
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: to playing big games. Iowa statements playing big games too.

646
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 2: Sure, they definitely do your favorite Matt Campbell win over Iowa.

647
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 2: Just throw it out there. I know, yeah, I get it.

648
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 2: I think they'll be amped up for this game. I

649
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 2: think Iowa State finds a way to win and cover.

650
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 2: I got the score at twenty four to sixteen. Syhawk

651
00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,240
Speaker 2: goes to these cyclones, Wow, breakthrough. I have twenty to

652
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 2: eighteen Iowa. I'm going with the under here just because

653
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 2: Iowa's defense is so specifically successful at limiting big plays

654
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 2: in Iowa State themselves. They're not an explosive offense, right,

655
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 2: They're trying to methodically take you down and wear you down.

656
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 2: And that's through a good running game, that's through leaning

657
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 2: on tight ends. So I think you're just gonna see,

658
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 2: for better or worse, a lot of long, methodical Iowa

659
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 2: State drives and that's just going to take time off

660
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 2: the clock. And so that makes me feel especially good

661
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 2: about the under. So I feel most confident about the under,

662
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 2: but I'm also gonna take the points.

663
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 1: Did you happen to see that. Brett McMurphy posted a

664
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 1: tweet where there was a fourteen team parlay. Somebody bet

665
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 1: ten dollars and bet fourteen unders and ended up winning

666
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,879
Speaker 1: about eighty grand last week. Last week.

667
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, unders are not fun to take, as our

668
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 2: pal Jeff Schwartz from Big Boy Bets likes to mention,

669
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 2: but if you pick the right one, or if you

670
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,840
Speaker 2: are brave enough to take the unsexy string of unders,

671
00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 2: you can do pretty well.

672
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: We both have under based on our prediction tiers, so

673
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: we disagree. Again. It's two in a row. Wow, All right,

674
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:11,880
Speaker 1: Saturday seven thirty on ESPN, we've got Texas. Texas is

675
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: favored by about a touchdown on the road at Arkansas. Now,

676
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: you may remember I called this game out many moons ago.

677
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: We had a show where we were looking at early

678
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: lines and I think at the time Texas was something

679
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: like minus one and a half. They may even have

680
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: been a one and a half point dog, but it

681
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 1: was it was very low. It was small. Yeah, And

682
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: I think now we fast forward to week two and

683
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,799
Speaker 1: what did we see against Louisiana. Texas looked pretty good

684
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: against a good team. Do not undersell Louisiana they're gonna win,

685
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 1: in my view, double digits this year. Very good team.

686
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: They looked good. They had them at arm's length the

687
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: whole game, thirty eight to eighteen whatever it was, and

688
00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: Arkansas struggled a bit. They trailed Rice at half, and

689
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: so this line hits it, pops, we got about a

690
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: touchdown here. How do you feel about this game? Because

691
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: I remember when we talked about it, you were actually

692
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: trending towards Arkansas. Has that changed now after what you

693
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: saw in Week one? I'm not fully there now. Home Dogs.

694
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 2: I typically like to see an electric atmosphere, which I

695
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 2: think it will be in Fayetteville. Like I think emotionally

696
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 2: it's going to be a really difficult place for a

697
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 2: new quarterback and a new head coach and a new

698
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 2: look team on both sides of the ball to succeed.

699
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 2: I also want that defense to be on point. As

700
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 2: a home dog. That's really the key to me for

701
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 2: taking Home Dogs. Some combination of an impressive defense and

702
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 2: a tough atmosphere. So I think Arkansas was definitely gonna

703
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 2: have half of that at play here. And it was

704
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 2: a big deal was made of last night watching Matt

705
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 2: Corral and the struggles he had when teams would drop

706
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 2: eight into coverage, namely Arkansas last year, when he was

707
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 2: picked off five or six times, whatever it was. I

708
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 2: wonder what Barry otom one of the the absolute best

709
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 2: defensive coordinators in the country, has in store for a

710
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: brand new starting quarterback who looked pretty good and pretty

711
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 2: impressive last week against Louisiana. I wonder what he has

712
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 2: in store in terms of confusion, in terms of forcing

713
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: him to beat the Arkansas defense and not be Jon Robinson.

714
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 2: Easier said than done, easier said than done. But that's

715
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 2: what I'm exceedingly curious about, having a really strong defensive coordinator,

716
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 2: a good linebacking corps, and a home atmosphere. I'm going

717
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 2: to take the points. Wo I think Texas, Yeah, I am.

718
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 2: I was disappointed with Arkansas's first half against Rice. They

719
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 2: were extremely vanilla and obviously mounted some bigger plays in

720
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 2: that second half as they pulled away. I think Arkansas

721
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 2: has a really nice shot against Texas. I'm gonna take

722
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 2: Texas to win, but I'm gonna take the points. I

723
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 2: think Texas wins this game thirty one, twenty eight, something

724
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 2: like that, maybe twenty eight to twenty four. In that range,

725
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 2: and I like a good home dog, and I don't

726
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 2: have the.

727
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: The sound, play the sound.

728
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 2: I don't have a hot dog place in Arkansas that

729
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 2: and somebody can ride in. Because I mentioned the Olinkster

730
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 2: home Dog of the Week last week with UCLA, that

731
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,240
Speaker 2: came through. They're Mayaco's home dog.

732
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 1: The yos home dog of the week.

733
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking up hot dogs in Fayetteville. There's a

734
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 2: place called Hot Diggity Dog, very well reviewed, good dog name,

735
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 2: good dog, diggity dog. I'm looking at pictures right now,

736
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,280
Speaker 2: ty Strong.

737
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 1: It's a hot diggity dog, very literal, it's a it's

738
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: a hot this Wow. Look, I don't know what I'm

739
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 1: latching onto. On the Arkansas side, I don't know. I

740
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 1: like Sam Pittman, I really do, okay, and I feel like,

741
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:53,520
Speaker 1: directionally speaking, Arkansas is going to a good place. He's

742
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,919
Speaker 1: building something. There's definitely some momentum after what we saw

743
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: last year. I think there's a really serious mismatch here

744
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 1: in the trenches between the Texas offensive line and the

745
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: Arkansas defensive line. In which direction? Do you like the

746
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: Texas offensive line in this matchup? I do, and I

747
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: like him a lot, and I think that sets the

748
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 1: tone on a number of different fronts. Right. Obviously, it

749
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,839
Speaker 1: could spring Bejon Robinson loose. He's the one guy. If

750
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,919
Speaker 1: you're Sam Pittman, you don't want to spring him lose.

751
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: It also could keep Hudson Card protected, keep him from

752
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: enemy combatants coming in after him, give him a little

753
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: bit more time to set his feet and throw and

754
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 1: get comfortable. First game on the road like this in

755
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 1: a hostile environment. So I think that matchup is the

756
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: one to watch. I think it sets a tone. I

757
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 1: think Bjon Robinson goes off. I think Hudson Card continues

758
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: to look mature. Maybe doesn't have a three hundred plus

759
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: yard game, but just nothing stupid, nothing stupid. I also

760
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: agree that Texas scores thirty one points, but I've only

761
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: got Arkansas down for seventeen. I think this is a

762
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,320
Speaker 1: comfortable win on the road. I thought about locking up Texas,

763
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 1: but then man, I just I could not do it.

764
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: I appreciate your commitment to the bit. I absolutely do.

765
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 1: I will this. It feels so it's not a bit.

766
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:18,240
Speaker 1: Though it's not a bit. I feel genuinely confident here

767
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: in Texas on the road under Steve Sarkisian with the

768
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 1: talent that they have on both sides of the football.

769
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: Taken down Arkansas absolutely, By the way. The not as

770
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 1: for Texas is they're not as mysterious as they were

771
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: last week. There's tape out because Texas couldn't be vanilla

772
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: against Louisiana too talented a team, they couldn't. So there

773
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: is tape out on what they're trying to do on

774
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: both offense and defense. Obviously, we've seen.

775
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 2: Pete Plekowski Pete Quitkowski as a defensive coordinator for a

776
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 2: number of years, and we've seen Sark and his offense

777
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 2: for a number of years now at Alabama. But I

778
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 2: think Texas is more of a slightly known quantity, So

779
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:56,840
Speaker 2: that's that's interesting, and Arkansas is just going to be

780
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 2: not as vanilla. To me, I'm really hopeful for a

781
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 2: good game and that involves kJ Jefferson being on target

782
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 2: and perhaps generating a couple big plays with his feet

783
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 2: to change the gravity of Texas defense. But yeah, we

784
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 2: just agree once again, hot diggity.

785
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: Dog, three in a row, three for three, let's go.

786
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: Let's go to our crush game. Okay, And I don't

787
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: have Mandy Moore here. I would love to play some

788
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: Mandy Moore. But seven pm ESPN two ANCI State two

789
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: and a half point road favorite at Mississippi State. So

790
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 1: my crush, NC State, Are you into Mandy Moore by

791
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: the way, as just her music and acting career? Like?

792
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: Are you a Mandy Moore fan agnostic? I guess I'm

793
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,759
Speaker 1: pro Mandy Moore. I don't. I don't consider myself a

794
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 1: Mandy Moore super fan. But right, I'm definitely not Mandy

795
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: Moore agnostic. I mean that's only for animals, but uh,

796
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 1: pro Manny Moore.

797
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 2: Sure, I'm pro Mandy Moore. And taller than you'd think,

798
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,280
Speaker 2: really tall. I think she's like five ten belief taller

799
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 2: than you'd think. Wow, that's all I'm prom Mandy Moore.

800
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 2: Let's talk about this interesting varied career.

801
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:09,919
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this game. Okay. NC State obliterated South

802
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 1: Florida forty five to nothing last week. Mississippi State needed

803
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 1: a touchdown late three and a half left a pass

804
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: from Will Rogers to your boy Jane Wally to get

805
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 1: the win for State. It was an ugly effort for

806
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: Mississippi State. Four turnovers, twelve penalties. They gave up some

807
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: really big plays in this football game. This is one

808
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: of those matchups that I think is going to be

809
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: under the radar for a lot of folks because neither

810
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 1: NC State nor Mississippi State is like Alabama, Miami, Clemson, Georgia,

811
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,799
Speaker 1: Notre Dame, Florida State. This could be the best game

812
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: of the weekend, best game of the weekend. Tell me

813
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: why here and now you're going to take Mississippi State.

814
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 1: Say Ne're gonna ta Mississippi State. Good defense, good coordinator,

815
00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 1: at home, emotional, electric environment. This is my standard home dog.

816
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: I'm not going to take a double home dog of

817
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: the week. But this is if this just aligns with

818
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: my belief system that if you are going to appreciate it,

819
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,400
Speaker 1: does What are you talking about? I've seen this for years.

820
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: Keep going it's great.

821
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 2: I'm always going to take a home dog with at

822
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 2: least a pretty good defense and a tough environment to

823
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:26,200
Speaker 2: win in. Does that make that that doesn't seem like

824
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,760
Speaker 2: it's crazy, You're just like the use of belief system.

825
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: I think, so that's I'm gonna do. I don't think.

826
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 2: I don't think Mississippi State they're going to be not

827
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 2: as off on offense. This is a timing based offense

828
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 2: running that style air raid. I think they're going to

829
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,240
Speaker 2: make more plays. I think NC State has a good defense.

830
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 2: I think they're just going to be NC State is

831
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:46,879
Speaker 2: going to be solid all around. They shut out us

832
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 2: F last week, right, yeah, forty five nothing, They really

833
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 2: did it, And like I know, USF is going to

834
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,240
Speaker 2: struggle all year long. They're still rebuilding, they're still whatever,

835
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 2: trying to figure out what they're going to be. The

836
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,280
Speaker 2: Bulls are, but it takes a certain amount of discipline

837
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 2: to shut out a team, no matter how good four quarters,

838
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,080
Speaker 2: and I appreciate that. With Tony Gibson and NC State,

839
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 2: I just think State Mississippi State is going to be

840
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,839
Speaker 2: able to score some and I worry a little bit.

841
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 2: I know NC State had some success on the ground,

842
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:14,720
Speaker 2: a good amount of success on the ground last week.

843
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 2: I just worry that Mississippi State's ceiling might be a

844
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,359
Speaker 2: little bit too high. And NC State is a solid team.

845
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 2: They struggled on the road last year. It's a different

846
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 2: year for sure, a different year this year. So there

847
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 2: were the struggles on the road last year, and I

848
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 2: just think it's going to be especially pronounced against a

849
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 2: Mississippi State team who I mean, it takes a certain

850
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 2: amount of fire to come back the way they did.

851
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 2: Granted it was a Louisiana attack. I get you, I'm

852
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 2: with you, but they showed it. They showed that fire

853
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 2: to come back. So I think they regroup really nicely.

854
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 2: In Mississippi State is a bigger week one to week.

855
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:51,839
Speaker 1: Two improvement story. Why is everybody so convinced that the

856
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:56,360
Speaker 1: Mike Leach thing is just gonna work? I hear you.

857
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: Why is everybody so convinced of this? It's like Mike

858
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,280
Speaker 1: Leach steps foot on your campus and suddenly your offense

859
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 1: is going to be rejuvenated and a threat every time

860
00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: it plays. You. Do you know how hard it is

861
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 1: to win in Pullman? Do any concept how hard it

862
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: is to mount to a Washington State team that can

863
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 1: win eight nine games every year. I mean, I just

864
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: think it's a very difficult offense to defend, and I

865
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be more in rhythm as the weeks

866
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 1: go by, and a Mike Leach team with a defense,

867
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: that's the thing that makes them very tricky. And so

868
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 1: the best, the best Mike Leach team was the one

869
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: that had that strong defense. And I'm still a believer

870
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: in this in this dog defense. So yeah, I'm gonna

871
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the points here, and I think I

872
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 1: think I have a Mississippi State winning by a touchdown.

873
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,839
Speaker 1: I've got NC State and uh, I'm gonna lock it up.

874
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 1: Luck of the week give me, but you have to

875
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,840
Speaker 1: give me a reason. I will give you a reason.

876
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 2: Give me the Tracy Chapman speech, like what is your

877
00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 2: What is your NC State? Because if you go to

878
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 2: stark well, even if they're just average and win, you

879
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 2: got to be pretty good. Is what is your NC State?

880
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:05,359
Speaker 2: Sales pitch?

881
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,919
Speaker 1: They are pretty good. I like NC State on both

882
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 1: sides of the ball. I like them on both sides

883
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: of the ball. I think they're gonna run all over

884
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 1: Mississippi State was Zonovian Knight and Ricky Person Junior. They

885
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,720
Speaker 1: did it last week. They're gonna do it again this week.

886
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 1: This is absolutely a premier rushing attack. I don't know

887
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: how it's gonna fare against Clemson when they play relatively soon.

888
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna go well for NC State.

889
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: But it's a problem, man, it's a problem. They can

890
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 1: run the ball. They can run the football, and they're

891
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 1: gonna run it here. Against Mississippi State, and on defense,

892
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: you talk about how difficult it can be to defend

893
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: the Mike Leach system. You're right. I think that's a

894
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 1: good matchup as well. NC State a couple of years

895
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: ago switched up to that vaunted three three five that

896
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 1: Dennis Dodd's right and about as potentially the panacea to

897
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: stop a Mississippi State also runs. Yeah, to stop in

898
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 1: the spread offense, to stopping this air raid Mike Leach system.

899
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna hold up really well against this

900
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,919
Speaker 1: Mike Leach offense. This is a veteran squad on both

901
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,359
Speaker 1: sides of the football. Virtually the entire team is back.

902
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 1: Devin Leary is back out there now he's healthy. He

903
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: didn't have a great week last week, but I think

904
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 1: he will be loaded for Bear going into this game

905
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: on the road. I just I'm more confident taking the

906
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 1: veteran squad that I know can run and that plays

907
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:24,799
Speaker 1: a defense that matches up fairly well. I guess than

908
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,240
Speaker 1: you are, So give me the points I like against

909
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: stayed outright. I think it's something like thirty one to

910
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 1: twenty one. The wolf Pack goes into Starkville and comes

911
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: away with a w by the way, both of these teams,

912
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 1: and I'm seeing a tackle success rate whatever that means

913
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 1: to you, sub hundredth that's not good. Not good.

914
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,319
Speaker 2: So bigger plays we could have, which is great. That's

915
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 2: how Yoda says it, Bigger plays we could have. I'm

916
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 2: very excited for this matchup. I think you nailed it

917
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 2: saying that this is one of the headline matchups and

918
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 2: could be one of the more exciting games of the week.

919
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 2: So I'm just I'm pushing my chips on the Mississippi

920
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 2: State side, but yeah, this game interests me, all right.

921
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: And then there's the eight o'clock ABC game, Washington at Michigan,

922
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:13,919
Speaker 1: Michigan favored by six. This one not as super Bowl,

923
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: by the way. This one opened at Michigan minus point

924
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,919
Speaker 1: and a half. It flew up to six. I'm sure

925
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 1: that has absolutely nothing to do with Washington losing thirteen

926
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 1: to seven at home to Montana. You're the grizz in

927
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: Week one. I don't for a second believe that Washington's

928
00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 1: that bad, but but it is concerning for all the

929
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:42,839
Speaker 1: reasons that you brought up on the Sunday recap show,

930
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,360
Speaker 1: just for a multitude of reasons, Frankly, you lose to Montana,

931
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 1: that's not a good showing. It definitely is going to

932
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,440
Speaker 1: ask a million questions about your offense or defense whatever.

933
00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:01,239
Speaker 1: Do you expect some more of the same quirks that

934
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 1: we saw in Week one for the Washington Huskies? What

935
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 1: a nice diplomatic policy here, My back's a me an

936
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 1: inept attempt at college football? Yeah, continue, Do you expect

937
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: that is more of the trend line? Do you expect

938
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: that that was really just a horrible hiccup that suddenly

939
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: is gonna look a lot different as they go to

940
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: ann Arbor? What is your expectation for the Huskies? Now?

941
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,160
Speaker 1: Given that Week one is in the past, the losses

942
00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 1: in the past, they were probably looking ahead to this

943
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: matchup all along, like what version of the Washington Huskies

944
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:38,399
Speaker 1: do we see in ann Arbor?

945
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:41,800
Speaker 2: Look, they have to be better. They can't be worse

946
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 2: on offense, they cannot. They scored right away, and they

947
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 2: looked impressive. They look sharp on that opening drive. Montana

948
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 2: adjusted to the Washington offense and it was like watching

949
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,880
Speaker 2: John Donovan look on a candy Land board confused.

950
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 1: It's like, oh god, now, what, oh god? They did

951
00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 1: something unexpected after the first drive. I mis Michigan's going

952
00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: to be more difficult than Montana. Is that a take? No,

953
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: that's not a take, That's just reality. We're talking about

954
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: a disappointing at the moment Michigan program. Big picture, Yeah,

955
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:14,480
Speaker 1: an impressive win against Western Michigan. They lost their best

956
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:16,880
Speaker 1: offensive weapon, or at least their best receiver in Ronnie

957
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: Moore for the season, which is a huge U. Excuse me,

958
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 1: what did I say Ronnie Moore? Yeah, they have many

959
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 1: of those.

960
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:24,880
Speaker 2: Think of ron Dale more. Yeah, Ronnie Bell out for

961
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 2: the air. Bummed about it. I don't know what is

962
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 2: the Washington adjustment. Like the Montana game was their walkover game.

963
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 2: That was their matchup against a I mean a good

964
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:40,400
Speaker 2: big Sky team, but a big Sky team. So now

965
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:43,400
Speaker 2: they go to the big house. Washington should be better.

966
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 2: Washington will pay a lot more attention to their opponent

967
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 2: heading into the week, probably than they did last week.

968
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 2: But I mean, the not as element for Michigan is

969
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 2: they're not playing a team that is as Western Michigan.

970
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 2: Washington's talent level, especially on defense. I think Washington can

971
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 2: win this game in an ugly way because they have

972
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 2: the defense to do it. I don't think upfront Washington

973
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 2: is all that impressive compared to where they've been. But

974
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 2: the secondary is some linebacker like there are dudes on

975
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 2: this defense. But even the offensive line, which was supposedly

976
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 2: the strength that you know, one of the best offensive

977
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 2: lines and most experienced in the country, pushed around by Montana.

978
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,640
Speaker 2: Let me let me ask you a question, and now

979
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 2: Aiden Hutchinson is lining up against this Washington offensive line.

980
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 2: My question here, and this is almost why I'm I

981
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 2: think gonna end up taking Washington plus the points. I

982
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:39,920
Speaker 2: totally understand anybody who does on a certain ethical level,

983
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:41,719
Speaker 2: but well ethical maybe this is I don't know what

984
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:45,919
Speaker 2: this is, but it's a question. Why isn't Why isn't

985
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 2: the line higher? I asked it last week against UCLA

986
00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 2: against LSU. I'll ask it again here. Everything we saw

987
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,280
Speaker 2: from week one, for the most part, on the Washington

988
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 2: offensive side was horrible.

989
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,799
Speaker 1: It's not good, drive look good. Nothing else did. And

990
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:06,480
Speaker 1: on top of that, in limited action last year, for

991
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 1: whatever twenty twenty was worth, Washington did struggle against the run,

992
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:12,880
Speaker 1: which is exactly what Michigan's going to want to do

993
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,720
Speaker 1: in this team. Why isn't this line higher it's six.

994
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 1: It feels like the kind of game, just with the

995
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 1: limited information we have from this year a little bit

996
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:24,080
Speaker 1: from last year, the Michigan should be favored by more.

997
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: They looked really good in Week one against a good

998
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 1: Western Michigan team, mind you, but the good quarterback. Why

999
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 1: is this line not higher?

1000
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 2: I think it's the perception that Washington just fully overlooked

1001
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:41,880
Speaker 2: Montana and did not have the juice and did not

1002
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,920
Speaker 2: have the ability to counter anything. And maybe it was

1003
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:48,439
Speaker 2: just a look ahead spot gone totally awry, and that

1004
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,760
Speaker 2: the things that need fixing will be fixed. The attention,

1005
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 2: the adjustments, whatever, that we're never going to see a

1006
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 2: team look like they do in Week one in week two,

1007
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:02,360
Speaker 2: for better or for worse. That there's just that element of, okay,

1008
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:07,839
Speaker 2: we directly know what we need to fix now. Am

1009
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 2: I a believer in Washington's ability to do that? Not enthusiastically, No,

1010
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:17,840
Speaker 2: because I think the the issues that are the the

1011
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 2: the concerns I had about Washington going into the season

1012
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 2: came to pass against Montana and so and that was

1013
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:24,920
Speaker 2: the only thing that came to pass against Montana.

1014
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:32,440
Speaker 1: I guess so at this point, like Dylan Morris staring

1015
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,799
Speaker 1: down an eight yard field constantly because this is not

1016
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 1: a downfield passing attack. Right now, they have a really

1017
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,759
Speaker 1: good tight end, Kate Auten, and he is I think,

1018
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: still a decent line in front of him. But the

1019
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 1: defense can't win this game like it's gonna have to

1020
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,920
Speaker 1: like this, Washington have to return two kickoffs for touchdowns

1021
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,400
Speaker 1: and get a pick six to win this game.

1022
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 2: Like they can. They can like win this game in

1023
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 2: like a weird must champion way. But yeah, I see

1024
00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 2: it now. I don't think Michigan. The reason why this

1025
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:01,800
Speaker 2: line is what it is is because we all watched

1026
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 2: Michigan attempt to tackle other football players last year. It

1027
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,920
Speaker 2: didn't go well. Like, I don't think one win against

1028
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 2: Western Michigan just washes over every concern we had about Michigan.

1029
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,719
Speaker 2: Right Like, we think Cade McNamara is probably decent enough,

1030
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,680
Speaker 2: but now he's down his best pass catcher. We think

1031
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 2: there are things to like about Michigan. But I don't

1032
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 2: think everything's fixed. I don't think Michigan is this automatic

1033
00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 2: team that like you can pencil him in as a

1034
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 2: thirteen and a half point favorite and I have a

1035
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:30,360
Speaker 2: lot to still prove. Yeah, I think that's kind of

1036
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 2: my sense as well. I don't get the line.

1037
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 1: And the edict here that I kind of made for

1038
00:54:36,800 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: myself at the start of the year is if you

1039
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,680
Speaker 1: don't get the line, steer into it. Okay, I think

1040
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,840
Speaker 1: the line should be higher. Based on how bad Washington,

1041
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 1: where would you place it nine and a half? I

1042
00:54:48,920 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 1: would say it's got to be at least eight. Okay,

1043
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:54,439
Speaker 1: it's got to be at least eight or nine. Yeah,

1044
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: based on what we saw from a week ago. If

1045
00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 1: if it were following like the normal logic that I

1046
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 1: would use in week eight. The fact that it's lower

1047
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 1: and that's up. It's up from a point and a half,

1048
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 1: which is way too low. The fact that it's up

1049
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 1: and it's still not high enough. I just when I

1050
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,120
Speaker 1: don't get the line, I'm gonna steer into it. This year.

1051
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,880
Speaker 1: I did it with UCLA a week ago in part

1052
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 1: because the dog picked that game. I'm going to have

1053
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,399
Speaker 1: Bayra pick this game as well, because I'm just clearly

1054
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:26,879
Speaker 1: on the fence about it. But it is just I'm

1055
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 1: going to go against maybe better judgment here. I'm going

1056
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 1: to take Washington plus the six. I think Michigan wins

1057
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:33,920
Speaker 1: the game. I think Michigan's a better team. I think

1058
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,000
Speaker 1: it's twenty four to twenty low scoring a lot of running,

1059
00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 1: but twenty four to twenty Washington ends up covering the

1060
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 1: point spread on the road.

1061
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna take I'm gonna take Michigan here to cover.

1062
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:46,880
Speaker 2: I think they win by a couple of touchdowns. I

1063
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 2: get the line. I think they win by a couple

1064
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:50,560
Speaker 2: of touchdowns. I just can't point to something I believe

1065
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:54,600
Speaker 2: in with which with Washington other than a must champion win,

1066
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 2: other than scoring twenty eight points with one hundred and

1067
00:55:58,080 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 2: eight yards of total offense.

1068
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:03,799
Speaker 1: Well, we have believe the disagreed on every game. I

1069
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,839
Speaker 1: love it that we've previewed. This is terrific. Let's go

1070
00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:09,319
Speaker 1: to the Holy War, Dan, the Holy War. You throw

1071
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:12,919
Speaker 1: out the records in the rivalry. Always, always, both teams

1072
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:16,720
Speaker 1: want to know. Saturday late kickoff ten to fifteen ESPN.

1073
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 1: Utah on the road a seven point favorite at BYU.

1074
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:25,160
Speaker 1: They did not play this game last year, but Utah

1075
00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: has won the last nine in the series. For what

1076
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,959
Speaker 1: it's worth, seven of those nine have been one score game,

1077
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:35,440
Speaker 1: so Utah is on a streak. But the game is

1078
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 1: typically fairly close in this game. If I'm looking at

1079
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:49,680
Speaker 1: a home dog getting seven points, I'm taking them sight unseen. Usually, Okay,

1080
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 1: this is one of those times I'm not Dan, And

1081
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 1: that for me is for a couple reasons. First off,

1082
00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:00,280
Speaker 1: I don't take much away from BYU's win over Arizona.

1083
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,560
Speaker 1: I kind of don't. It wasn't comfortable enough for me,

1084
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:04,959
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, I kind of don't care. They won

1085
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,279
Speaker 1: by eight. It wasn't as close as the score indicates.

1086
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,600
Speaker 1: The Cougars had them pretty much at arm's length most

1087
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:14,040
Speaker 1: of the game. So it's a nice road win, I guess,

1088
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 1: but I'm just gonna take it with a grain of salt.

1089
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:20,680
Speaker 1: The bigger reason for me is the experience factor here.

1090
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 1: We are still very much in the early days of

1091
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 1: this new season. I'm gonna lean a little heavier on

1092
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 1: the team that has more experience than I might if

1093
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:33,840
Speaker 1: this were say, Week five, pretty much all of Utah's

1094
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 1: team is back m h. And that's, you know, looking

1095
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:43,880
Speaker 1: at BYU, a team that lost seven of its ten tacklers,

1096
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 1: they lose Zach Wilson, their all star quarterback. I don't

1097
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 1: know it, just like well went in down take a

1098
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: home dog. Then I don't know, I think that's totally

1099
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 1: I mean, if that's your belief, but I'm not taking

1100
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,600
Speaker 1: the home dogs. My point. I just think that at

1101
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 1: sure Jaron Hall look great against They're look fine against Arizona.

1102
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 1: We could go. But this is a team that gave

1103
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:10,920
Speaker 1: up four hundred and twenty eight yards to Arizona, an

1104
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 1: offense that is starting over with Jedfish, new quarterback, new system,

1105
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 1: gunner cruise looked really good, like maybe it's really good,

1106
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 1: but maybe BYU is still looking at its wounds with

1107
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: only four returning starts.

1108
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 2: It also could have been a look ahead spot with

1109
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,040
Speaker 2: the rivalry in week two, right, I mean Arizona's you

1110
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 2: can look ahead sort of, but this is not It's

1111
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 2: not Northern Arizona.

1112
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm taking the more experienced team with the better track

1113
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,440
Speaker 1: record in this game, regardless of where they're playing it.

1114
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:41,800
Speaker 1: I like, you taugh to win this game by fourteen points?

1115
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,600
Speaker 1: What time? This is a late game, right, ten to

1116
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: fifteen Eastern ten fifteen?

1117
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 2: Home team, well, the home team. I think Utah wins

1118
00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 2: this game, but I think it's real close. Yeah, an

1119
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:53,520
Speaker 2: emotional and I'm not a big believer in BYU's defense

1120
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 2: right now, but yeah, in a rivalry spot. The atmosphere

1121
00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,400
Speaker 2: should be great at night. Yeah, I just think there's

1122
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 2: gonna be so much pent up energy. I know I'm

1123
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 2: pointing to a bunch of abstract reasons why I'm taking BYU,

1124
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 2: but I think there's going to be improvement from week

1125
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,120
Speaker 2: one to week two. I can appreciate the performance on

1126
00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 2: some level against Arizona. I'm just never going to fully

1127
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 2: trust Chas Brewer.

1128
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: I'd come on, man, and.

1129
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:18,680
Speaker 2: It's more of a physical thing than it is like

1130
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 2: his ability. It's just he's been so beat up and

1131
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 2: in this spot, like I don't know, I think BYU

1132
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 2: breaks through. I don't have a lot of reasons with

1133
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 2: everything that's new with this team, new offensive coordinator. I mean,

1134
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:32,120
Speaker 2: he was a promoted guy with already in the system.

1135
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just think Utah is not going to

1136
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:39,040
Speaker 2: score enough points to cover this spread.

1137
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:41,480
Speaker 1: I think you're wrong here. I think you're really really

1138
00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 1: wrong here. I just don't like the dynamics of by

1139
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: You going into this game after having lost so much

1140
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,480
Speaker 1: from a year ago. They will be juiced up, no doubt.

1141
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:51,959
Speaker 1: I like Utah a lot more.

1142
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:53,800
Speaker 2: I'm just going to commit to the home dog bit.

1143
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 2: Twenty seven to twenty three mutes. I'm committed to the bit.

1144
00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:59,680
Speaker 2: I'll find you a hot dog place in Provo.

1145
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 1: Let's do some quick hits. Let's see if we can

1146
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 1: agree on a game here. Saturday high noon, ESPN Pit

1147
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 1: minus four on the road at Tennessee. By the way,

1148
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 1: Jay Dogs, Jay Dogs and Provo Jay Dogs. Who do

1149
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:14,480
Speaker 1: you like dogs?

1150
01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 2: Peter Tennessee, Uh, Pitt and the Johnny the major major

1151
01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 2: major matchup. Yeah, I'm going to Pitt because I'm just

1152
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,160
Speaker 2: not a home dog guy. Because even though I like

1153
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 2: Neeland Stadium, i don't like the Tennessee defense, I'm going

1154
01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 2: Pitt to cover here.

1155
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,640
Speaker 1: I trust Pitt a lot more. It's a veteran team.

1156
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,959
Speaker 1: They're gonna play good defense. Tennessee still finding its way.

1157
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,920
Speaker 1: I'm unconvinced. Joe Milton's the answer. Actually, Pits my second

1158
01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:43,040
Speaker 1: lock of the week Look of the Week. I got

1159
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: another one coming too.

1160
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 2: But you can Pat Nardoozy and his tiny visor. I

1161
01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 2: don't even know if his visor's tiny. I think he

1162
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,440
Speaker 2: just has a big head. Five and two is a

1163
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:51,360
Speaker 2: road favorite.

1164
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 1: Since twenty eighteen with the Pitt Panthers. Also at high noon,

1165
01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 1: this one on FS one, Tulsa on the road at

1166
01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. Oklahoma State favored by twelve and a half.

1167
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State did not exactly blow the doors off of

1168
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,720
Speaker 1: Missouri State last week. The score makes it look closer

1169
01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:13,560
Speaker 1: than it was, but the Pokes, you know, didn't. They

1170
01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:17,000
Speaker 1: could have done better. They started shaggy Shane Illingworth because

1171
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:22,919
Speaker 1: Spencer Sanders was in COVID protocol. Tulsa, I'll remind you,

1172
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:26,200
Speaker 1: played really sound defense a year ago. Only lost this

1173
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: game by a sixteen to seven score. That was a

1174
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 1: Week one game a year ago, this one with an

1175
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:32,880
Speaker 1: injured quarterback for part of that game. Yeah, with an

1176
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 1: injured quarterback with the backup yeah, yeah, freshman. Yeah. I

1177
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,120
Speaker 1: like the Pokes to rebound in a pretty big way here.

1178
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,320
Speaker 1: So tells lost to UC Davis. Did they not last week?

1179
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,960
Speaker 1: They did? Yeah? Dan Hawkins, who's familiar with Big twelve football,

1180
01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:48,080
Speaker 1: very familiar. But yeah, twelve and a half feels like

1181
01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 1: pretty good value on the Pokes here, So give me.

1182
01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State might be easy to overlook though Tulsa given

1183
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:55,240
Speaker 1: that loss. Maybe that Tulsa has a bounce back week

1184
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 1: and Oklahoma State has Boise State on the road the

1185
01:01:57,800 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 1: next week. So I don't know if this is a

1186
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 1: letdown look ahead Sam matchup, but yeah, it's a letdown

1187
01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 1: in that like kind of a disappointing performance and backup

1188
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 1: quarterback and just like not feeling great and then having

1189
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,360
Speaker 1: Boise State on the road next week. I think they

1190
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:13,240
Speaker 1: should be able to win this game. I think they

1191
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:14,840
Speaker 1: should be able to win this game comfortably. Twelve and

1192
01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 1: a half is a lot of points. I think they're

1193
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:21,440
Speaker 1: gonna cover it, though. Saturday, two pm on the ACC Network,

1194
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 1: Rutgers Rutgers minus two on the road at Syracuse. Block

1195
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 1: of the week. I am all in on Rutgers. Here,

1196
01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:40,760
Speaker 1: I am interesting. I am all in on Rutgers. Man,

1197
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 1: I am Shiano is rebuilding the program. He stripped it

1198
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: down to the studs. It feels like the program has

1199
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:54,560
Speaker 1: some direction, there's some organization to it. I think Syracuse

1200
01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 1: is a hot mess. It's a hot mess, and it

1201
01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:59,320
Speaker 1: pains me to say that because I really like den

1202
01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 1: Know Baber's but a hot mess. I think Rutgers wins

1203
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:04,280
Speaker 1: this one. I don't like the fact that they're favored

1204
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,520
Speaker 1: and they're on the road, but it's only two so

1205
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:08,680
Speaker 1: give me the Scout nights. That is my third and

1206
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 1: final lock of the week.

1207
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:14,560
Speaker 2: Syracuse is my Hops Spot home dog of the week

1208
01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:18,680
Speaker 2: tie Hops Spot, which is more than just hot dogs,

1209
01:03:18,680 --> 01:03:23,760
Speaker 2: to be sure, but it looks delicious. Yeah, Syracuse, what

1210
01:03:23,920 --> 01:03:27,080
Speaker 2: I presume to be at a fighting defense, A decent defense,

1211
01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 2: not fully sold on Rutgers yet. And Syracuse I don't

1212
01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 2: expect to be great, but they took care of business

1213
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,560
Speaker 2: against Ohio as a dog. By the way last week

1214
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:37,320
Speaker 2: against the ninth Rourke to start at quarterback for the Bobcats.

1215
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,960
Speaker 2: I think Syracuse at home as a home dog. I

1216
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,840
Speaker 2: think it's just again commitment to the bit. And I'm

1217
01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 2: looking at the food here. I'm looking for the hot

1218
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:49,800
Speaker 2: dog specifically, and let's see hot dog. Oh, I just

1219
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:52,400
Speaker 2: want to eat here. Looks wonderful. Maybe they don't have

1220
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:54,440
Speaker 2: a hot dog tie. Okay, sorry, I don't know if

1221
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 2: they do. I'm still going with.

1222
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:00,920
Speaker 1: Q's here. Let's put that idea to the here. Saturday

1223
01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 1: three point thirty on Fox, Texas A and M a

1224
01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:09,920
Speaker 1: seventeen point road favorite over your Colorado Buffaloes. How do

1225
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,400
Speaker 1: we feel about taking Haynes King on the road? Texas

1226
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:18,919
Speaker 1: A and M Lock of the week of the week. Yeah,

1227
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:22,960
Speaker 1: total bit commitment until Texas A and M lock of

1228
01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:23,240
Speaker 1: the week.

1229
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, did they I think they move this game right

1230
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,840
Speaker 2: Texas AY and the Colorado game, and they're playing in Denver.

1231
01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 2: Now it's at a boulder, right about that, I think? So, Yeah,

1232
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,680
Speaker 2: let me see Texas A and M Colorado tickets.

1233
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1234
01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:38,640
Speaker 2: I think Haines King specifically bounces back. I know the

1235
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,040
Speaker 2: dual threat ability is there. I think he is going

1236
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:42,680
Speaker 2: to learn from the mistakes that ended up in those

1237
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,760
Speaker 2: interceptions against I believe it was Kent State, right. I

1238
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:48,280
Speaker 2: just think the defense is going to overwhelm Colorado here.

1239
01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:51,400
Speaker 2: I don't Colorado. I just don't think they have, you know,

1240
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:53,520
Speaker 2: to to hang with A and M this year. You're

1241
01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:55,320
Speaker 2: going to need to stress that defense. And I just

1242
01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:56,720
Speaker 2: I don't think they have the quarterback. I don't think

1243
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 2: they have the weapons on offense. There's guys on defense

1244
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:00,640
Speaker 2: for Colorado, but I think they're just going to be

1245
01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:04,760
Speaker 2: left out, you know, to to wilt on the field

1246
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:07,600
Speaker 2: way too long. So yeah, I'm going with the ag

1247
01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:09,440
Speaker 2: is here to bounce back in a really impressive way

1248
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,920
Speaker 2: and play four good quarters against Colorado. There's a reason

1249
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,600
Speaker 2: this line is what it is, and so I feel

1250
01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:17,640
Speaker 2: good about it. And this game, by the way, Colorado,

1251
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 2: Texas A and M, it looks like, yeah, it is

1252
01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 2: in Denver at whatever they're calling Mile Highfield.

1253
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:26,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to see Jack Brissard against a pretty

1254
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:30,760
Speaker 1: good defense. I'm curious to see what happens there. The

1255
01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 1: Colorado defense is not exactly loaded to the brim with talent,

1256
01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:38,000
Speaker 1: but they do have talent at all three levels here

1257
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:42,920
Speaker 1: and there. Curious to see how that defense holds against

1258
01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 1: a really talented A and M offense, but with a

1259
01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:49,680
Speaker 1: new starting quarterback on the road. So we'll see, we'll see,

1260
01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 1: we'll see. I think I agree with you. I don't

1261
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 1: feel overly confident in A and M to cover, though

1262
01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:59,200
Speaker 1: I do think they'll win this game comfortably. Moving on, also,

1263
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 1: three point thirty Big Ten Network Buffalo at Nebraska the

1264
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:07,440
Speaker 1: Eternal Turner Gil Bowl. Excuse me, m, Braska favored by twelve.

1265
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:11,080
Speaker 1: I really like Nebraska here. I really like Nebraska. Why

1266
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 1: the stupid Illinois game out of their system? They beat

1267
01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 1: up on Fordham a year or a week ago. I

1268
01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: think I think another solid effort coming this week here

1269
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 1: from the Huskers at home. So I thought about locking

1270
01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:24,960
Speaker 1: up Nebraska here I'm not going to do that, but

1271
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:26,240
Speaker 1: I like Nebraska a great deal.

1272
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:29,400
Speaker 2: Minus the twelve, it's total Sandwich game to me let

1273
01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:31,439
Speaker 2: down look ahead. Sandwich is finally getting on the board

1274
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,840
Speaker 2: with a comfortable win against Fordam. I'm not saying it's

1275
01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:36,959
Speaker 2: a letdown necessarily because they were so emotionally charged, but they.

1276
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:39,120
Speaker 1: Needed to get that win. That was a must win.

1277
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:42,200
Speaker 1: Week two game, Week one game. Yeah, it can only

1278
01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:45,280
Speaker 1: be a letdown. Look ahead if you're looking ahead to

1279
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:48,760
Speaker 1: the next week thinking you could win. There's not a

1280
01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:51,960
Speaker 1: soul in that Nebraska locker room who's looking at that. Oh,

1281
01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:56,960
Speaker 1: I thinking totally got we got them, Come on, no,

1282
01:06:57,040 --> 01:07:00,800
Speaker 1: But they're consumed by it. They're consumed by what they

1283
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 1: might be able to do against Oklahoma. Not that they're

1284
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:05,680
Speaker 1: big believers realistically, but like you have to be on

1285
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:07,680
Speaker 1: a certain level, you have to believe in yourself, and

1286
01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:11,760
Speaker 1: so Oklahoma commands attention now, especially that Oklahoma, at least

1287
01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:14,760
Speaker 1: right now, is perceived to be more vulnerable than we

1288
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:18,080
Speaker 1: thought they might be in August after eking by two lane. Man,

1289
01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 1: So you might get every game roll this week, every game,

1290
01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:21,920
Speaker 1: every game rung.

1291
01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 2: But I'm committing Tye. I like Buffalo to cover the

1292
01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:27,360
Speaker 2: spread Nebraska to to win the game. I think double digits.

1293
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:31,440
Speaker 2: Buffalo is still a team that was really strong last year.

1294
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 2: They're complete, they're well coached. I know it's a new

1295
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 2: coach and Mo Linguist who came on late after Lance

1296
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:38,080
Speaker 2: Leipold left for Kansas. But still, I think they're in

1297
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 2: a good place. I think they've got a you know,

1298
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:43,040
Speaker 2: it's still ventrees? Is that their quarterback? I don't think

1299
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 2: Nebraska is all that good, so double digits is too

1300
01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 2: many against a solid team. I don't think Buffalo is

1301
01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 2: good enough to win this game. But you know, twenty eight,

1302
01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:52,920
Speaker 2: twenty one, twenty eight, twenty three, Yeah, sure.

1303
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: Three point thirty FS one Ball State at Penn State,

1304
01:07:57,040 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 1: O Dudson another I'm so hungry. Oh, here's your let

1305
01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:08,160
Speaker 1: down look ahead, spot Dan. Here's the letdown look ahead

1306
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:12,160
Speaker 1: of week two. Penn State goes on the road. Last

1307
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:18,120
Speaker 1: week beats Wisconsin, big statement road win. Yes, yeah, next week.

1308
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:22,679
Speaker 1: Next week they're staying at home. Auburn from the SEC

1309
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:25,360
Speaker 1: comes to town night game wide out game. Everybody's gonna

1310
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:29,880
Speaker 1: be fired up, sandwitched conveniently right there in the middle.

1311
01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:34,960
Speaker 1: Ball State, Ball State what's ball State? Who cares about

1312
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 1: ball State? Ball State ripped off their last seven games

1313
01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 1: last year. They upset Buffalo for the MAC title and

1314
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,880
Speaker 1: then they upset San Jose State in the Arizona Bowl

1315
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:47,080
Speaker 1: the close out of the season. This is a veteran team.

1316
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:51,080
Speaker 1: Twenty starters are back. They're gonna go into Beaver Stadium

1317
01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,960
Speaker 1: thinking that they can win, and they're gonna play with tempo.

1318
01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 1: Could they catch Penn State for some period of time.

1319
01:08:58,200 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 1: I think so. I don't think they will be Penn State,

1320
01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:04,120
Speaker 1: but they are a twenty three point underdog going into

1321
01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:09,600
Speaker 1: this game, dam which is concerning from a point spread standpoint.

1322
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:12,720
Speaker 1: If you are the Penn State Nitney Lions, I am

1323
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,439
Speaker 1: taking Ball State plus those points. That's a lot of

1324
01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:20,000
Speaker 1: points in a very obvious letdown look ahead spot for

1325
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 1: the Nitney Lions. I think Penn State will be better

1326
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,920
Speaker 1: last year, better this year than they were last year.

1327
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:30,400
Speaker 1: Excuse off Area, I'm with you, but much the way,

1328
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:32,640
Speaker 1: I do not want to overreact too much to what

1329
01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:36,920
Speaker 1: we saw in Week one. I'm still not entirely sure

1330
01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 1: what we have on the offensive side for Penn State

1331
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:42,160
Speaker 1: as they kind of work through their own little wrinkles

1332
01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:44,800
Speaker 1: here with a new offensive coordinator. So I didn't they win.

1333
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,599
Speaker 1: I think they'll pull away much later. But it would

1334
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:51,280
Speaker 1: not surprise me to look at the scoreboard late in

1335
01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 1: the second quarter and see something like twenty one to

1336
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:55,599
Speaker 1: twenty Penn State.

1337
01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:02,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I disagree. I recognize that it's a sandwich. It

1338
01:10:02,080 --> 01:10:04,960
Speaker 2: is absolute sandwich, and I recognize that things could start slow.

1339
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:08,360
Speaker 2: It could be, you know, ten to seven after the

1340
01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 2: first quarter or something like that. I have it like

1341
01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:14,200
Speaker 2: forty nine to thirteen. Wow, Okay, I think Limb from

1342
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:16,960
Speaker 2: lim I think absolutely Limb from Limb a net crack

1343
01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:18,479
Speaker 2: game for the Penn State offense.

1344
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,680
Speaker 1: Let's go very quickly through the final four games here

1345
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:24,800
Speaker 1: that I've got listed on our sheet. Cal at TCU,

1346
01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 1: another three thirty game, TCU at home, favored by nine

1347
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:29,320
Speaker 1: and a half.

1348
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take Cal here. I'm gonna take Cal on

1349
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:33,759
Speaker 2: the points. I'm just not a believer in TCU nearly

1350
01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:36,560
Speaker 2: a double digit favorite, and Cal is still going to

1351
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,840
Speaker 2: mount a tough defense. I think they improve from week

1352
01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 2: one to week two. Justin Wilcox has an outstanding record

1353
01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:44,080
Speaker 2: outside of the PAC twelve. Last week was his first

1354
01:10:44,080 --> 01:10:46,800
Speaker 2: loss gimme cal to ugly this game up and I

1355
01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:49,000
Speaker 2: don't know cover the spread. I don't know if it's

1356
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 2: a win, but yeah, twenty to eighteen or something.

1357
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,720
Speaker 1: I gotta stay true to for him and go TCU

1358
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 1: man gotta do it. Of course, let's go to Saturday

1359
01:10:57,600 --> 01:11:01,880
Speaker 1: at seven pm ESPNU. We've got app State eight eight

1360
01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:05,040
Speaker 1: and a half point dog on the road at Miami.

1361
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:09,000
Speaker 1: Is there any trap potential here, Dan, any trap potential

1362
01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:16,040
Speaker 1: for the Miami Hurricanes. Not necessarily a letdown look ahead,

1363
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:19,960
Speaker 1: but maybe a bit of a let down. Miami is

1364
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:25,080
Speaker 1: Michigan State next week, who just stopped Northwestern. Maybe a

1365
01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:27,599
Speaker 1: bit of a letdown after that Alabama game? Now coming

1366
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:31,000
Speaker 1: home play an app State? Who cares about app State?

1367
01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:34,720
Speaker 1: Plus eight and a half is a big number for

1368
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 1: app State. App State is starting Chase Bryce, though, your boy,

1369
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:40,200
Speaker 1: at quarterback. So how do we feel at this game?

1370
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 2: I think, see, I think this is a Miami is

1371
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:46,479
Speaker 2: not as much a team that's playing against Alabama this week.

1372
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:50,680
Speaker 2: I think Miami wins this game by double digits. As

1373
01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:52,839
Speaker 2: much as I have liked app State over the years,

1374
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,960
Speaker 2: the combination of Chase Bryce's turnover history and Miami speed

1375
01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,280
Speaker 2: and I believe Bubba Bolden's He was ejected in the

1376
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 2: first half last week, so he should be back for

1377
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,880
Speaker 2: this game, you know, leading that Miami defense. So yeah,

1378
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,599
Speaker 2: I think ten or thirteen points is where Miami ends

1379
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 2: up winning this game. And yeah, I know I'm doubting

1380
01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:15,880
Speaker 2: Tommy Hen's. Tommy Henigan is Thomas Hennigan. It's a big

1381
01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,360
Speaker 2: upset that Thomas Hennigan doesn't play for Boise State. It

1382
01:12:18,439 --> 01:12:23,000
Speaker 2: just feels like a very Boise State name. But yeah,

1383
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:25,160
Speaker 2: I'm not rolling with app State in this spot. Give

1384
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,880
Speaker 2: me Miami even in a letdown look ahead spot with

1385
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 2: Sparty next week, I'm going Knes here by nearly a

1386
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:31,839
Speaker 2: couple touchdowns.

1387
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:34,800
Speaker 1: I'm going to app State plus the points. I'm going

1388
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:37,599
Speaker 1: as a reason plus the point. Is there something you

1389
01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 1: like about app State this year? I think this could

1390
01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:45,120
Speaker 1: be a game that they muddy up at the muddy

1391
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:49,000
Speaker 1: up Okay, they play defense, that Miami comes out and

1392
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,439
Speaker 1: they're a bit sluggish after the game that we saw

1393
01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:54,080
Speaker 1: last week. Ultimately, dear King's the best player on the field,

1394
01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 1: best athlete on the field, and I think that means something.

1395
01:12:58,040 --> 01:13:00,640
Speaker 1: But Okay, I could absolutely see this being the kind

1396
01:13:00,680 --> 01:13:03,719
Speaker 1: of game where Miami's up fourteen late and Appstate scores

1397
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 1: a touchdown to score in the back door cover. Okay,

1398
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:11,600
Speaker 1: I like Appstate skill. I just think it's not a

1399
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:15,519
Speaker 1: great matchup. Seven point thirty sec network Missouri on the

1400
01:13:15,600 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 1: road at Kentucky. Kentucky five and a half points the favorite.

1401
01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 1: Kentucky looked dynamic on offense a week ago. Tyler Batty

1402
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:29,439
Speaker 1: for Missouri looked dynamic. Can't say much for the rest

1403
01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,720
Speaker 1: of the offense, but five and a half's a lot

1404
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:34,840
Speaker 1: of points. Are you convinced on the Kentucky offense? If so,

1405
01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,519
Speaker 1: you take the points. If you're not like me, you

1406
01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:42,800
Speaker 1: take Missouri in a road spot where I think we

1407
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:45,640
Speaker 1: know Eli drink Quitz will have them fire up. I

1408
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:48,559
Speaker 1: have no idea who wins this game, Dan, So I'm

1409
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 1: taking this game. This game last year was an offensive

1410
01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:54,880
Speaker 1: war crime. Yeah, this game was terrible, so Wich from

1411
01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 1: an offense, it was a twenty ten game. This was

1412
01:13:57,400 --> 01:13:59,920
Speaker 1: I believe Terry Wilson throwing for he had like a QB.

1413
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:06,719
Speaker 1: We are of like three singularly three. It's it's basically

1414
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:09,639
Speaker 1: who do you trust? It's do you trust? After one

1415
01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:12,520
Speaker 1: week that Liam Cohen and Will Levis and that combination

1416
01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:14,800
Speaker 1: is all of a sudden going to take a major

1417
01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,639
Speaker 1: leap for the Cats this season. Like that, they're going

1418
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:20,400
Speaker 1: to be a you know, top half of the SEC offense.

1419
01:14:20,400 --> 01:14:23,160
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be improved. I think Missoo is decent.

1420
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:26,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, this was an ugly game. They were grinding that

1421
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:29,479
Speaker 2: game that went out last year. I'm going to take

1422
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:33,000
Speaker 2: Kentucky here. I'm going to take Kentucky because I think

1423
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:35,960
Speaker 2: they're a little bit more electric. I trust the receivers

1424
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:37,760
Speaker 2: at Kentucky more than I have in the passing game

1425
01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 2: more than I have. But I've also seen Will Levis

1426
01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:44,599
Speaker 2: against a decent amount of opponents and throw a decent

1427
01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:47,320
Speaker 2: amount of passes, So I think he comes back to

1428
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:49,680
Speaker 2: earth a little bit. Monroe is nothing that's going to

1429
01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:52,680
Speaker 2: scare any quarterback really at this point. So I think

1430
01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:55,720
Speaker 2: Kentucky does cover this game because they give me a

1431
01:14:55,720 --> 01:14:57,720
Speaker 2: little bit more to like. It's at home. I think

1432
01:14:57,720 --> 01:14:59,640
Speaker 2: they win this game by a touchdown and it's a

1433
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:02,600
Speaker 2: more pleasant watch. Twenty four to seventeen Cats.

1434
01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:05,439
Speaker 1: And finally ten thirty on Fox, maybe a game we

1435
01:15:05,479 --> 01:15:09,839
Speaker 1: can finally agree on. Stanford on the road at USC

1436
01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:15,519
Speaker 1: USC favored by eighteen, how is Stanford scoring points that?

1437
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 1: It remains the operative question. I'm going USC minus anything

1438
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:23,400
Speaker 1: in this game. I do not think much of the

1439
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:26,559
Speaker 1: Stanford cardinal this year. It pains me to say that

1440
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,439
Speaker 1: because just a couple of years ago this would have

1441
01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:32,759
Speaker 1: been a marquee matchup. It was not sure not slated

1442
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:34,519
Speaker 1: to be a marquee matchup. This year it turns out

1443
01:15:34,520 --> 01:15:37,680
Speaker 1: it will not be. But eighteen's a big number, Dan,

1444
01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:41,840
Speaker 1: who you got? Eighteen's a big number. I'm not sold

1445
01:15:41,840 --> 01:15:45,759
Speaker 1: on USC. I think offensively they looked still pretty vanilla

1446
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:48,800
Speaker 1: and disappointing, and I thought it improved defensively against San

1447
01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:52,320
Speaker 1: Jose State. Stanford's a mess. They arguably started the wrong quarterback,

1448
01:15:52,360 --> 01:15:54,360
Speaker 1: and they were going back and forth between Jack West

1449
01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:56,840
Speaker 1: and Tanner McKee against Kansas State and really just never

1450
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,559
Speaker 1: got in a rhythm with anything. I think it's a

1451
01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:02,680
Speaker 1: it's too big a number is where I'm landing on this.

1452
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:05,639
Speaker 1: I think Stanford will improve from where they were last

1453
01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:08,120
Speaker 1: week in a weird spot, neutral site, body clock, whatever.

1454
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:11,759
Speaker 1: So I think Stanford loses this game comfortably for sure.

1455
01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm just not sold on SC. So I have it

1456
01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:20,080
Speaker 1: at you know, twenty seven thirteen something like that, twenty

1457
01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 1: twenty seven to ten. That just eighteen's too big a

1458
01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:27,160
Speaker 1: number with USC's yeah, I'm gonna take the points, but

1459
01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:29,960
Speaker 1: yeah's late. I don't think.

1460
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,200
Speaker 2: I don't think the stadium is gonna be at all full,

1461
01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:33,920
Speaker 2: like I just I don't know. I see he's gonna

1462
01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:34,559
Speaker 2: comfortably win.

1463
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,800
Speaker 1: That's all I have here for week two, Dan, I

1464
01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:41,760
Speaker 1: have one more request though, oh anything, I need you

1465
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:49,760
Speaker 1: to drop some big stink it gasping, gliding, grazing, drum

1466
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:55,519
Speaker 1: and fife. The Patrion League is back, Bager. We had

1467
01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:58,920
Speaker 1: a win over an FBS in con we had a

1468
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:03,120
Speaker 1: win over Ukon last week. They fired Randy Etzel because

1469
01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:07,679
Speaker 1: of it. Basically, this week we've got seven matchups. Here

1470
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:15,320
Speaker 1: stony Brook at one pm, traveling to the Colgate Gators, Dan,

1471
01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:15,680
Speaker 1: who you.

1472
01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:19,360
Speaker 2: Got the Raiders. I'm gonna take the Gators here. I'm

1473
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:21,639
Speaker 2: gonna take the Gators even though they didn't I don't

1474
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:24,000
Speaker 2: believe they looked good last week, so I'm taking Gators

1475
01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:26,000
Speaker 2: at home. This is the week one to week two difference.

1476
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:30,800
Speaker 1: I agree, Lehigh at Richmond going to the Spider Country Dan,

1477
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:35,240
Speaker 1: two pm. This game I believe is the ABC featured matchup.

1478
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:38,960
Speaker 1: In case you were wondering what network it's on, Mount

1479
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:41,599
Speaker 1: Hawks versus the Spiders. Who you got.

1480
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the Spiders here. I'm not a believer

1481
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:47,479
Speaker 2: in Lehigh. I'll do apologies to your extended family.

1482
01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:49,920
Speaker 1: I gotta go Lehigh. You know I'm contractually obligated to

1483
01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:52,559
Speaker 1: do so. It's true two PM. You know they start

1484
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:55,120
Speaker 1: these Patriot Leagues at these Patriot League games at the

1485
01:17:55,160 --> 01:17:59,040
Speaker 1: same time, like their World Cup final rounders, right, they

1486
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,719
Speaker 1: don't want anyone to know what the other is doing.

1487
01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:05,599
Speaker 1: It's really smart by the Patriot League. Georgetown. I believe

1488
01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:07,599
Speaker 1: Georgetown had its game canceled last week.

1489
01:18:08,200 --> 01:18:11,280
Speaker 2: Yes, they did, as I suggested Maris do, because of

1490
01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:14,520
Speaker 2: just fear of the hornet's nest, that is multi sport.

1491
01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 1: Field Georgia traveling a little bit north to square off

1492
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:21,800
Speaker 1: against Delaware State, not Delaware, Delaware State, I think you

1493
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:26,000
Speaker 1: gotta go Georgetown here, right, So interestingly enough, Delaware State

1494
01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:29,600
Speaker 1: is the hornets, okay, but avoiding the hornets nest that

1495
01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:32,519
Speaker 1: is Georgetown, and so thematically, I think I'm gonna go

1496
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:35,720
Speaker 1: Delaware State here with Georgetown. Just feeling a little bit

1497
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:41,840
Speaker 1: raw having that game canceled. Moving on, let's go to Merrimac,

1498
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:46,439
Speaker 1: the football team, not the ship on the road at

1499
01:18:46,479 --> 01:18:49,720
Speaker 1: Holy Cross. Potential letdown spot here for the Crossaders.

1500
01:18:49,800 --> 01:18:54,040
Speaker 2: Dan, Where even is Merrimac. It looks like, oh, it's

1501
01:18:54,080 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 2: in the Merrimack Warriors there in Massachusetts. Yeah, okay, give

1502
01:19:02,280 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 2: me the Crossadors. Come on America's team. After that big

1503
01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:05,679
Speaker 2: win last week.

1504
01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:09,599
Speaker 1: I agree. Saturday six pm, buck Nell on the road

1505
01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:13,719
Speaker 1: at Villanova. Villanova laid waste to the Lehigh Mountain Hawks

1506
01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,640
Speaker 1: a week ago. Kid, I gotta believe they will do

1507
01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:18,519
Speaker 1: the same to buck Nell. You know where I stand

1508
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 1: on the Nelly's of never pro Nelly, give me, give

1509
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:21,960
Speaker 1: me Nova, give me the Cats.

1510
01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:27,040
Speaker 2: Yeah Bonova, Yeah yeah, I'm not a believer in the

1511
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:27,800
Speaker 2: Bison right now.

1512
01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:33,240
Speaker 1: Saturday six pm, Lafayette the Leopards on the road at

1513
01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:36,679
Speaker 1: Bill and Mary Dan will we go. Is Mike London

1514
01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:39,280
Speaker 1: the Bill and Mary coach? I don't know.

1515
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:42,240
Speaker 2: I think he is William and Mary head coach. Let's

1516
01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 2: see what Google turns up. Mike London. I can't go

1517
01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:49,639
Speaker 2: against the Eddies, you know I can't, But I am.

1518
01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,519
Speaker 2: I am worried about Mike London's, Billy's and Mary's.

1519
01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 1: So I am. I'm going Eddie, but I'm skeptical. Let's

1520
01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,439
Speaker 1: go to or No, I'm gonna go Bill and Mary.

1521
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:03,400
Speaker 1: You gotta go Bill, Maria. Okay, finally build the music here.

1522
01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:07,719
Speaker 1: Monmouth on the road at New York's one true team,

1523
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:11,759
Speaker 1: the Fordham Rams. Dan Fordham was on the road in Lincoln, Nebraska.

1524
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:15,280
Speaker 1: They lost fifty two to seven to the corn Huskers.

1525
01:20:15,320 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 1: We go coming back home now against Monmouth. Gotta go Fordham, right,

1526
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 1: I'm going for him. Monmouth doesn't have a dude who

1527
01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 1: was able to tackle thirty times successfully.

1528
01:20:28,120 --> 01:20:30,040
Speaker 2: I don't know my English is all off today. I'm

1529
01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:32,760
Speaker 2: gonna go Fordham. Big Yeah, Arthur Avenue shout it out.

1530
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:35,840
Speaker 2: Did Are there any other games? Any other matchups that

1531
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:37,680
Speaker 2: we missed that you would just you find at least

1532
01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:38,759
Speaker 2: to be a little bit interesting.

1533
01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure there are plenty.

1534
01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:45,120
Speaker 2: Kansas Coastal Carolina Friday Night that was ugly last year. Kansas,

1535
01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:47,920
Speaker 2: maybe a new look team, Illinois Virginia.

1536
01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:53,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, now I'll take I'll take Virginia, East Carolina, South

1537
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:56,800
Speaker 1: Carolina hold Naylor's. I believe North Carolina is favored in

1538
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:01,240
Speaker 1: that game. East Carolina is one and a half point.

1539
01:21:00,920 --> 01:21:03,800
Speaker 1: Now I'm seeing two points over under fifty seven and

1540
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:08,280
Speaker 1: a half Greenville, Okay, Florida. South Florida should be pretty ugly.

1541
01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:11,960
Speaker 1: Tulane has a winnable game against Morgan State. It looks

1542
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:16,919
Speaker 1: like we mentioned Rutgers, Syracuse, Perdue, Yukon. You ab Georgia,

1543

Speaker 1: you aby quality program. We'll see.

1544
01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:21,400
Speaker 2: I think Georgia it's gonna be really good for that game.

1545
01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:24,920
Speaker 2: Destroy Yeah, Cincinnati should win easily. Boston College, you Mass

1546
01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:29,160
Speaker 2: we should get a tow and o BC Temple Akron

1547

1553
01:21:48,280 --> 01:21:49,280
Speaker 1: of Houston. I don't know.

1554
01:21:50,479 --> 01:21:53,280
Speaker 2: As I'm going through, there's very little that interests me

1555
01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:55,960
