1
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: If the if the college football calendar is like in

2
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: the air tonight by Phil Collins. We are walking towards

3
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 1: the drum set We're about to just do like three

4
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 1: days away. Florida State and Georgia Tech already experienced this.

5
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: The rest of us are right on the precipice, right

6
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: on the doorstep of finding out if we're right about everything,

7
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: wrong about everything. The JP pulls a little bit shook

8
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: right now, But don't worry. Don't worry. We're gonna make

9
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: it through it together. Josh Pat's College Football Show is

10
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: live high top a radiant downtown Nashville, Tennessee, on this

11
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 1: Tuesday night, August twenty seventh, the year of Our Lord,

12
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Listen to this. You hear that stack

13
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: of papers hit the ground. Here We've got a show

14
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: almost illegally jam packed. It's Prediction Night. Every Tuesday night

15
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: during the season, we take the biggest games and we

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: break him down. I'm gonna tell you what the model

17
00:00:58,280 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: thinks about each game. We're gonna tell you what fans

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: thinks about each game. I'm gonna pick each game, and

19
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: so it will be tonight the only one I'm gonna

20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: say till Thursday is lsu USC because it's a Sunday

21
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: night game. I watched, Yes, I watched the Connor Stallions

22
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 1: documentary already on Netflix. And then the interest of I'm

23
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: not doing the whole spoiler alert thing. I'm gonna be

24
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 1: responsible about the way I talk to it tonight, But

25
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,759
Speaker 1: there was really not much that was revealed, so I'm

26
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: not sure spoiler alert is necessarily how we need to

27
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: label that. How bad is it at Florida State? Right now?

28
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 1: It's gonna be okay at Florida State. Did I say

29
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: some things on the other night's show that I have

30
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: since gone back and deemed to be incorrect. I will

31
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: talk to you about that tonight. All that plus a

32
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: an ongoing, raging debate about preseason rankings, not just ratings,

33
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: rankings and where they fit and if they fit at all,

34
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: and as me mom would say, much to do about nothing.

35
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: But yet it's not a lot of you are talking

36
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: about this right now. I've got a very very evergreen

37
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: take on that, and I will serve it up and

38
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: by the end of tonight's show, I'm gonna really have

39
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: fun with you, Immunity. I'll actually tell you what that

40
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: means they're watching us in Blacksburg, Virginia, Lafayette, Alabama, not

41
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: Lafayette Kids, Lafayette, Alabama, Edmund Oklahoma, Knoxville, Tennessee. Thank you

42
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: guys so much. I'm telling you be sure to follow

43
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: on the socials at late kick. Josh, I'm gonna be

44
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be on the field in Gainesville three point

45
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: thirty Eastern, two thirty Central this Saturday. The whole New

46
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: Saturday tour is headed down to the swamp and I

47
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: will be there the eye. Josh will be there with me.

48
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: So there's stuff in that Instagram story on Saturday. You

49
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: only get here all right, Now, listen as I dive

50
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: into the show tonight, I need to tell you we're

51
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: taking the entire end of tonight's show and we're just

52
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,839
Speaker 1: gonna explain everything about the show. So if you don't care,

53
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: that's when you can tune out. But for anyone who's

54
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: ever asked any question about anything I say on this

55
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: show that makes no sense to you, it's going to

56
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: be explained as best I can at the end of

57
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: tonight show. A bunch of stuff I've never shared with

58
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: you before. It's gonna be very swinging I have no

59
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: clue how Colin's going to make a thumbnail for it,

60
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: if we'll even have video during that part of the show.

61
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: But I am going to explain in its entirety what

62
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: this show is about, because I know a lot of you,

63
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: tens of thousands of you have come here just in

64
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: the last few months, and a lot of this stuff

65
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense to you. That's okay. If you wonder

66
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: why there are random trains over both of my shoulders

67
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: right now, If you wonder why I never change shirts,

68
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: If you wonder what immunity even means, what is a

69
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: JP poll? How does this guy claim to have a tour?

70
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: What kind of to I will explain everything about this

71
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: show to you. It is your college football show. It

72
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: is America's college football show. So you deserve answers. All right,

73
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: Here we go. Your thoughts on preseason rankings. Do you

74
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: hate them? Do you love them? I think every one

75
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: of you traffic in them. Even if you claim you

76
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: hate them, you traffic in them. You can set your

77
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: clock this time of year to the first upset of

78
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: the season happening. Because it's college football, we'll always have upsets.

79
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: And then as soon as the upset happens, someone's going

80
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: to run to the nearest message board, nearest social media account,

81
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: and they're going to yell, this is why we shouldn't

82
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: have preseason rankings. And you can also set your clock

83
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: to me listening to that a YORNI because I think

84
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: it's kind of dumb. They're not dumb. Remember Mima always

85
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: taught us smart people can say casual things. Casual people

86
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: rarely say smart things. So it was that Florida State

87
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 1: got beat as a double digit favorite last Saturday against

88
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. And then since some of us had FSU

89
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: and our preseason top ten, not the esteemed Brandon Walker,

90
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: but the rest of us lowly serfs had FSU in

91
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: our top ten, then we got yelled at and we

92
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: got schooled, and we got explained to how preseason rankings

93
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: are irrelevant. We shouldn't have preseason rankings, and people to

94
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: think about it is they get really worked up about it.

95
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: And I look and I say, Colin, show me Chuggy,

96
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: give me Chuggy right quick. We have a new mascot.

97
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: His name is Chuggy, and I would like for you

98
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: guys to just walk into the therapy session with me.

99
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: This is Chuggy our new mascot here, and I want

100
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: you to take this Chuggy doll, and I want you

101
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: to point to me on the Chuggy doll where the

102
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: preseason rankings hurt you? Point up here down here is

103
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: that where the preseason rankings hurt you. What did preseason

104
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: rankings ever do to you? They maybe they didn't do

105
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: anything for you, but what did they ever do to you?

106
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: The point here is, in what world if we had

107
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: an Act of Congress, if we had a new executive

108
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: order handed down from on Hive, if the letters were

109
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: written and read and it said you are not to

110
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: have preseason rankings, how would that stop preseason rankings? In

111
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: what world would you ever be stopped from listing teams

112
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: in order of how good you think they're going to be.

113
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: In your own mind, you would do it thought crime.

114
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: In your own mind, you would do it, and magazines

115
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: would do it, and websites would do it, not just

116
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: because it generates traffic, but because it generates traffic, but

117
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: also because it generates interest. We are not trying to

118
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 1: cure cancer here. It's not that serious. At the end

119
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: of the day, We're just trying to figure out whether

120
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: Texas A and m's the top twenty team or not.

121
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: We're just trying to figure out what or the dobor

122
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: is gonna have Alabama in contention at the end of

123
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: the year not. Is it an imperfect science, yes? Is

124
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: it a science at all? No? But Josh, it just

125
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: influences too much. That's what I always get told, because

126
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 1: my first question is always what's wrong with preseason rankings?

127
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: If you don't like them, move on? Which is not

128
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: good enough for the haters out there of preseason rankings,

129
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: So like, what's wrong with preseason rankings? I got a

130
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: lot of friends who hate these things. I've got a

131
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: lot of buddies who I have lost my voice with

132
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: arguing about preseason rankings. And I always come back to

133
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: the same thing, what's wrong with them? What do they hurt?

134
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: And I always get told the same thing. They create

135
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 1: a narrative in people's minds where certain teams are gonna

136
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,799
Speaker 1: be given benefit of the doubt, whereas other teams don't

137
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: have benefit of the doubt, and it's based on nothing

138
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: because no football games have been played. And if you're

139
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: ranked in the top ten and you lose a game,

140
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: you're still gonna be probably top twenty five. And if

141
00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: you're outside the top forty and you win a game,

142
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: you may have to win another one to jump up

143
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: inside the top twenty five. And guess what, you are

144
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: probably right, and guess what else. It shouldn't matter. It

145
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: shouldn't matter because polls don't matter anymore. That's not how

146
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: we crown national champions. We don't even use computers to

147
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: crown national champs. However, what we do have is a committee.

148
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: And that's where it gets a little murky, because that's

149
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: when I get told, Josh, the committee gets influenced by

150
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: these things. Well, if you've got a committee full of

151
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: people who are influenced by media rankings, then you got

152
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: the wrong people on the committee. So it sounds like

153
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: misguided anger. In my opinion, you got anger towards preseason polls,

154
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: when in reality you should get aggravated at the people

155
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: who are allowing themselves to be influenced by them. Mind you,

156
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: these are not normal people. These are committee members. Committee

157
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,320
Speaker 1: members are supposed to be above the freight. So I

158
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: bring to you a better idea tonight. My better idea is,

159
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: when I'm college football commissioner, you should feel free to

160
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: rank teams. Rank them all you want to rank the

161
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: top one hundred and thirty four if you want to.

162
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: But also, and here's some advice, feel comfortable pivoting quickly

163
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: in week one because if you really think about it,

164
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: a week one game, heck, the first half of a

165
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: week one game should really be worth more in your

166
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: mind than the previous six months, because all you had

167
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: the previous six months are you had spring, you had

168
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: transfer portal, you had media days. You say, you had

169
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: a lot of words said, you had a lot of

170
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: practice reports read, but you didn't see a football game,

171
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: so you could think all you want to about Florida State.

172
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: I can think all I want to about how good

173
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 1: Florida State is. But if I see Florida State get

174
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 1: put on skates, If I don't see the heart in

175
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: that defensive front, if I see secondary guys thinking instead

176
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: of reacting, well then it doesn't really matter what I

177
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: thought and what I read in the spring in the summer, respectively.

178
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: So as long as you're willing to do that, rank them,

179
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: Rank the teams. Here's the trade off. If you do

180
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: rank a team too high and they don't fulfill on

181
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: your expectation, don't be yelling overrated at the coaches. Don't

182
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: be yelling overrated at the players. This has always been

183
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: the trade off. It is rarely adhered to, but this

184
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: has always been the trade off that I think should

185
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: be understood. I've watched it happen forever, ever since I

186
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: was a little JP. I've always watched preseason rankings. Sometimes

187
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 1: I agree, sometimes I don't. But then inevitably there's going

188
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: to be a team, and it will happen this year too,

189
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: preseason top ten team, they finish outside the top twenty,

190
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: maybe they finish unranked. And here's what was always wild

191
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: to me, even as a kid. The sports writer who

192
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: ranked this team top ten, only for that team to

193
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 1: lose five games gets to then turn around and blame

194
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 1: the coach and the players and call them overrated. And

195
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: no one ever asks the sports writer, well, who rated them?

196
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 1: The players didn't rate themselves, the coach didn't rank himself

197
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: in his team number six. You did, mister sports writer

198
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: and missus sports writer. Now, that's always been the skill

199
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: that's always been the power behind a hiding this thing.

200
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: This is a pen or behind having these things. These

201
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: are keys. You control that kind of So I've always

202
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: thought it may be uh one's responsibility that if you

203
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: overrated a team, then call yourself out on it. If

204
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: you underrated a team like I did Washington last year,

205
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: I was wrong on Washington all year. I was wrong

206
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 1: on Michigan most of the year, and then they met

207
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: in the National title game, so I had to get

208
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 1: one right at some point. Call yourself out on it.

209
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: I called we had fun with it last year. I

210
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: wore a clown nose on air, guys, I called myself

211
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: out on it. And then there's a whole different fight.

212
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: We got a jam pack show tonight, so I'm about

213
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 1: to move on from this, But then there's this whole

214
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: different fight. Power ratings, which are not rankings, as we

215
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: all know, Paper Pop Colin, do me favorites, show me

216
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 1: the J people, the JP poles. My own power rating

217
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: also has Chuggy on the bottom and left hand corner there.

218
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 1: So here's the thing about power ratings. Those things are

219
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 1: not gonna look the same as rankings afterwards. I mean,

220
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: if I were ranking teams, I wouldn't still have Florida

221
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: State number twenty right now because they're O to one

222
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: and they didn't prove anything. And Georgia Tech would probably

223
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: be ranked higher than them, because Georgia Tech probably deserves

224
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: to be ranked higher than them in a merit based world.

225
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 1: But power rating world is a little bit different. And

226
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: so I put this out the other day, and all

227
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: I'm trying to do with this is gauge neutral field

228
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 1: favorability based off this model here. In other words, these

229
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 1: numbers are telling you that, even after that game just

230
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: got played on a neutral field tomorrow, the model here

231
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: would favor Florida State over Georgia Tech. Well, someone had

232
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: the audacity to call BS on it. But you know

233
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 1: what I had the audacity to do. I had the

234
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: audacity to call our friends over at FanDuel Sportsbook and

235
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: I talked to the traders over there, the ones who

236
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: set the lines, and I say, guys, do me a favor.

237
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: I'm being thrown under the bus here. You run the

238
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: sports book. What would you make this game if Florida

239
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 1: State and Georgia Tech played again this week? Neutral field

240
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: go over to Ireland for all I care, play it again?

241
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: What's the line? You know what they said, Jesse and

242
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: Colin FanDuel Sportsbook game played again today, neutral field Florida

243
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: State minus seven and a half over a touchdown favorite

244
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: against Georgia Tech. If they played again today, and you

245
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: know what, Georgia Tech may win the game again. So

246
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: you'd yell at me, see it didn't matter, and I'd

247
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: yell at you. That's not what this is about. That's

248
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: not what any of this is about. The moment they

249
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: were favored before the game. This power rating was right.

250
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: So my other piece of advice if none of this

251
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 1: suffices for you is you don't like them, don't look

252
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 1: at them. Welcome in. We are jam packed. We got

253
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 1: a huge week coming up. We are headed down to

254
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: Gainesville this Saturday, and Quick Trip is powering our our

255
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 1: journey down to Gainesville. The whole New Saturday Tour is

256
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 1: going to be coming to you every Saturday throughout the year.

257
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: I will announce our week tour, our Week two tour

258
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: destination this Sunday night after Week one is in the books.

259
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: And so Miami at Florida, whole New Saturday Tour fueled

260
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 1: by Quick Trip. We appreciate it. We've been given out

261
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: free gas and fortunately, as as best friends often do,

262
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: as anyone in a relationship often does, you fight and

263
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: a Quick Trip and I had it out today and

264
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: I'm not proud of this, but I've got to share

265
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,199
Speaker 1: it with you. A Quick Trip decided that they were

266
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 1: just going to take to the public airwaves of social

267
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 1: and say you could go to a wedding on a

268
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: college football Saturday and the world won't end. Now, that,

269
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 1: of course, is advocating for a lifestyle that we don't

270
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: believe in on this show. It's just a moral thing.

271
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: We don't believe in that lifestyle. You should be free

272
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: to live it if you want to, but we should

273
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: not be forced to be drugged to it if we

274
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: don't want to. Our friends at Quick Trip differed in

275
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: their opinion, so I asked if we could speak privately

276
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: about our relationship. I have good news as of about

277
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: forty five minutes ago. We did speak privately, and they

278
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: have given me the power to give away free gas

279
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 1: all year. So I told them, are you prepared for

280
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: me to show favoritism to people who are forced to

281
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: attend fall weddings this season and favor them in the

282
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: gas giveaway? And they said, what can We can't stop you,

283
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: what we've already signed off on it. We can't stop you. So, friends,

284
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,680
Speaker 1: I know some of you are going to be forced

285
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: into precarious situations at fall weddings on Saturdays this season,

286
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: and my heart goes out to you. Couldn't be me

287
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: because I work on Saturdays. But I know not all

288
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: of you do. You're living normal lives out there, and

289
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: so this QR code you can get the quick trip

290
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: at there. You can download their at period. But I'm

291
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: telling you right now, I've got a lot of gasoline

292
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 1: to give away. And you show me that you're stuck

293
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: at a wedding on Saturday, you just might get bumped

294
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: to the front of the line. That's all I'm saying.

295
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: I can't confirm it. Yes I can, That's all I'm saying. Though,

296
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: let's dive into some game predictions. It's time to go

297
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: Tuesday nights in the fall. This is how we do it, Colin.

298
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: I guess even though we just used that graphic, you're

299
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: about to throw it right back up here in a second.

300
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: Miami at Florida, Saturday, three thirty Eastern ki ESPN Heat

301
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: Dome parked over the southeast. High pressure has got it

302
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: intensely hot down here. Hey, if they die, they die,

303
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: three point thirty kickoff in the swamp. It's going to

304
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: be a really good one, the whole New Saturday tour

305
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: in town, and we've been looking forward to this one

306
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: for a long time. I was pretty much sure we

307
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: were going to this one in the spring, and now

308
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: we've locked it in. So the whole New Saturday tour,

309
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: fueled by Quick Trip, going to be there. I'll be

310
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: on the sidelines for this one. Copious amounts of sunscreen

311
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: on the head for obvious reasons. This is the number

312
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: thirteen team and number twenty one team in the JP poll.

313
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: I don't even know what the AP says. It's a

314
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: pressure cooker of a game. I think there's a bunch

315
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: more pressure on Billy Napier than there is Mario christ Ball.

316
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 1: I think a lot of this has been painted in

317
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: the media as boy losers on the hot seat. Well,

318
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: Mario's not on the hot seat if he loses this game.

319
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: Billy Napier is, and so I think there's a lot

320
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: more He's got home field advantage here. I think there's

321
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: a lot more pressure. I think they've got a lot

322
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: more to prove at Florida. Lower expectations for Florida this

323
00:15:56,480 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: year as well. Question for you, how effective will this

324
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: Miami offense be right out of the gate this year

325
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: Week one. This is not Bethune Cookman. This is not

326
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: a tune up game. They got to go into the

327
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: most hostile environment they'll play in all year, the most

328
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: hostile environment most people on this roster have played in.

329
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: This offense at Miami. I think will eventually be effective

330
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: this year, but I can't shake this idea from my

331
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: mind that they could be clunky out of the gate.

332
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: And that's because this sport's really hard. And then you

333
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: got the whole helmet communication thing and you're trying to

334
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: take that piece on the road. And I listened to

335
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: Shannon Dawson the other day. I have talked to Shannon

336
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: Dawson about this, and they can say all they want

337
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: to about how well if cam Word can't hear, because

338
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: it sounds like he's surrounded by jet engines in Ben

339
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: Hill Griffin Stadium, if he can't hear, we got checks

340
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: for that. We'll be fine. No one's ever fine on

341
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: the road in college football. The best you do is

342
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: manage on the road. In college football, that's the best

343
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: you do. And the ones who make it look easy

344
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: are few and far between. So you got that, you

345
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: got the whole newness factor of cam Ward working with

346
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: a lot of guys working in an offense for the

347
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 1: first time, A ton of skill here, ton of skill.

348
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 1: I think they're surprisingly deep at tailback. I think the

349
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 1: offensive line very very good unit. They are going to

350
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: be a very high level offense. And maybe they come

351
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: out of the gate firing. I just think how impractical

352
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: that is going into this environment in week one. So

353
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: you got the crowd and all of those other things.

354
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: And that's why running back depth is important here. And

355
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: Jordan Lyle, for example, is a true freshman running back.

356
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 1: I think they flipped him from Ohio State. I mean

357
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: I think in terms of matchup, he gives them a

358
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: really good look on the perimeter getting to the perimeter.

359
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: Damian Martinez is a guy they got from Oregon State,

360
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: and he'll be a focal point of the offense. Who

361
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 1: knows three or four touches for Jordan Lyle may be

362
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: the difference there. We talked about Elijah Arroyo a whole

363
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: lot last year at tight end. This year, stay healthy,

364
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: every finger here crossed. That's a guy along with Strepo.

365
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 1: Sam Brown's a receiver they got from Houston. Got good

366
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: weapons there. It's another thing to make sure, all those

367
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: weapons just look like that right out of the gate.

368
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: That's not normal in college football. So if you can

369
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: do that, you're the exception to the rule. Then the

370
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 1: second thing I'm focused on in this game, same question,

371
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 1: but for Florida, how effective is the Florida offense right

372
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: out of the gate? Are there matchups out wide to

373
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: exploit here Eugene Wilson, you can make an argument the

374
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: most skilled wide receiver in this game either sideline. But

375
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 1: at the same time, I could make the argument Florida's

376
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: about to see the fiercest pass rush maybe they see

377
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: all year, and this is a team that's gonna play

378
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,120
Speaker 1: a murderer's row of a schedule. But that pass rush

379
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: Miami brings is about as good as anyone's going to

380
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: feature this year. Arles Boardingham at tight end another good

381
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: option for Graham Mertz if he has time, if he

382
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 1: can get the ball out in time, if they can

383
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: give him adequate protection. It's one of the great questions

384
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 1: around Florida football this year is the offensive line. And

385
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: the other thing early in the season, what do we

386
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: see all the time? In fact, in college football in general,

387
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 1: what do we see? We see a lack of the

388
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 1: basic skill of tackling in the secondary. Well, can you

389
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: get your guys on the perimeter? Can you make defensive

390
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 1: backs tackle you instead of guys who will do it

391
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 1: all day long if you let them on the interior.

392
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: And the other thing. I was at Florida's opening game

393
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: last year out in Utah. I was there and I

394
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: stood there and I watched the missed field goal, and

395
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 1: I watched nine penalties, and I watched duplicate numbers on

396
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: the field extend a drive and that ended up I

397
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 1: think in a score. And so procedurally special teams, where's

398
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: the edge there? Do we have one? Cam Ward? I

399
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: mean cam Ward was prone to turn ball over up

400
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: at Washington State. So for everyone who looks at how

401
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: full the glass could be right out of the gate,

402
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: is it that full? Also, Miami carrying six seven new

403
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: starters on defense. This is an environment that if you

404
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: don't have everything ratcheted up, you don't have every bolt

405
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: nut tied really tight, it can rattle you and you

406
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: come undone. It's happened to many a team in that building,

407
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: as you can tell. I've had a really hard time

408
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: on this game. So Colin, let's take a look at

409
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: what the model thinks, and it's really close to what

410
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 1: fan Duel thinks right now as we sit here on

411
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: this Tuesday night, Miami is a two and a half

412
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:21,959
Speaker 1: point favorite. Model agrees we got Miami minus two. I

413
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: am extremely conflicted in this one because I keep going

414
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 1: back to thinking there is more desperation on Florida side.

415
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: Obviously home field advantage, how intimidating an environment that can be,

416
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 1: how easily that place rattles you, especially if you've got

417
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: newness on offense. And then on the other side, I

418
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: think to myself, Miami's pass rush can take over the game.

419
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 1: And there are probably a few too many green arrows

420
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: pointing north, I think when I look at that match up,

421
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: both sides from Miami thought Florida early this morning, shifted

422
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: to my amy this afternoon, manned by these solemis to margins,

423
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm rolling Miami to win and cover. I mean, because

424
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,239
Speaker 1: the line is under a field goal anyway, I have

425
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: no feeling that one you will not have a dime

426
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: of my money bet on a side. However, there is

427
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: something I love here. We've actually got a Rama Noodle

428
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: Express best bet, and I'm gonna add it right now.

429
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: Pay attention kids, this could come at any point during

430
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: the show under fifty four and a half. I love

431
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: in this game. Don't think it gets out of the forties.

432
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: And so right now we are adding to the Rama

433
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 1: Noodle Express Miami versus Florida under fifty four and a half.

434
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: And that goes in conjunction with Kent State plus twenty

435
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: four and a half. We got that one the other night.

436
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,159
Speaker 1: Colorado minus nine and a half, we got that the

437
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: other night. So I just added Florida and Miami under

438
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 1: fifty four and a half. And you know what, since

439
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 1: we're in Nashville, Colin, let's go ahead and add Vandy

440
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: plus thirteen and a half as well. So just like that,

441
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: we're twenty minutes into the show. Some people out there

442
00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: on the streets tell you got to wait till the

443
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: end of the show, but no, The Ramnudlal Express is

444
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: powered by FanDuel now, so it could be anywhere in

445
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: the show. This gets updated throughout the week, and you

446
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: got to be following on social because frankly, a lot

447
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: of them don't even get revealed on the show. They

448
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: get revealed on social. Josh Pate CFB on Twitter now

449
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 1: we're working on the Instagram handle. You know how to

450
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,959
Speaker 1: find me there, though, So Kent State plus twenty four

451
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 1: and a half, Colorado minus nine and a half, Vandy

452
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: plus thirteen and a half, and the Miami at Florida

453
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: under at fifty four and a half. Those numbers courtesy

454
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: of and available at FanDuel. All Right, Look, I know

455
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: a lot of you have tailgating needs. I know a

456
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 1: lot of you are headed out on the road this

457
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 1: weekend and throughout the season. Might I not so humbly

458
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: suggest that you're going to need to make new purchases

459
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: because I know a lot of you don't like storing things,

460
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: and so a lot of you just go buy it

461
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: new every year. And I respect it. I absolutely respect

462
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: the minimalist lifestyle. Not to mention this stuff's pretty affordable,

463
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: especially if you head over to Academy Sports and Outdoors.

464
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 1: My dream, Frankly, I've already said it twice tonight, Jesse,

465
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: so probably about three or four more Franklies baked in

466
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: here somewhere is just to scan out over the horizon

467
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: in Gainesville Saturday, or filling the blank next week, or

468
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: filling the blank the week after that, and just see

469
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: those Academy tents and those Academy chairs and grills that

470
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: I know we're purchased at Academy. Oh look there goes

471
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: a little wayward child. Where are the parents? We don't know,

472
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: but look at that bicycle, probably purchased at Academy Sports

473
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: and Outdoors. Parents not included. Take care of your children, please,

474
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: So Academy dot com, if you cannot get there in person,

475
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: has you set up. That's it. That's all. They have

476
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: been with us nearly from day one. They make this

477
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 1: show free to you, and we humbly, humbly just ask

478
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: that you check them out for things that I know

479
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: you're going to purchase. Anyway, back to the show. Now,

480
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: here's a fun one. I mean, this game right here

481
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: is a fun one. I'm not going to it because

482
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: I think neutral site games to kick off the season

483
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 1: or evil, but it's a fun one. You know, Clemson

484
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: plays Georgia to kick off the season this Saturday in

485
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: basically the grave of the Georgia Dome, right on top

486
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: of the Grave of the Georgia Dome. You may know

487
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: it as Mercedes Benz Stadium, but some of us missed

488
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: the Georgia Dome. It's a noon kickoff? Who George is

489
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: about a two touchdown favorite? Here thirteen and a half

490
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: point favorite. Do you realize we have the number one

491
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: and number two active head coaches going at it in

492
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: terms of win percentage? Do you realize we have three

493
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: active head coaches who have won national championships and these

494
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 1: are two of them and the other one's Mack Brown?

495
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 1: Do you realize that, according to the twenty four to

496
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: seven Sports Team Talent composite, this is the number two

497
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: and number five roster in America? And do you realize

498
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 1: after all that the folks at FanDuel said, yeah about

499
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: a two touchdown gap between these teams? What happened to

500
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: Clemson football to warrant such a points? Well, it didn't

501
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: happen overnight, did it? Georgia is this is a paper

502
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: popper of a stack. If Georgia wins Saturday, that is

503
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: their fortieth straight regular season win. That would be the

504
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:15,719
Speaker 1: most since the Oklahoma teams of the mid fifties. And

505
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: we all remember how great those teams were. Some of

506
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: you actually do. Kid Klubnick, quarterback at Clemson, just in

507
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: general shaky last year, but away from home, really shaky

508
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: at home. Not terrible six and one thirty seven points

509
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: per game last year. Points per game is not necessarily

510
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 1: a quarterback stat. I understand that, but broad strokes purposes,

511
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: they scored thirty seven per game at home, and he

512
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 1: was fourteen to three touchdown to interception rate on the

513
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,479
Speaker 1: road or neutral site three and three win and loss

514
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: twenty one point five points per game five to six

515
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: touchdown to I and T. Suffice it to say, a

516
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: different player. And remember it was the Duke game that

517
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: kicked all this off last year, and they turned the

518
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 1: ball over every way imaginable, and Mike Elcho and Duke

519
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 1: beat him. And there are few truths in an uncertain world,

520
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 1: but one of them is the level of competition is

521
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: going to step up a little bit from Duke here.

522
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 1: All due respect to Duke, but it's your two under

523
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: Garrett Riley. You know it's your two with Kay Klubnick

524
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: being the starter. Here. We got Bryant Westco. We've got TJ.

525
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,960
Speaker 1: Moore at receiver, and I'm not saying that mockingly. I

526
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: expect a lot from those guys. It's just that I'm

527
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: counting on true freshman receivers against George's secondary, So not

528
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: the most favorable matchup in the world there. But if

529
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: Georgia can't get home, if that pass rush can't get home, maybe, maybe,

530
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 1: just maybe there's an early spark there, combined with the

531
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 1: whole year two synergy of quarterback and OC. Maybe it's

532
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 1: not a poverty roster. You know, a lot of people

533
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: are painting this as a blowout waiting to happen. Maybe

534
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:59,199
Speaker 1: it is. But this is still Clemson football, guys. I

535
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 1: just want to remind you still a pretty prideful program

536
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: up there that recruits pretty well. Dabo's swinny man. You know,

537
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: it used to be not too long ago, actually, that

538
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: they used to find themselves in this spot. They relished

539
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: this spot. It was called little Old Clemson. I always

540
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: thought it was kind of dumb, because I do. I

541
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: knew even at the time, Clemson don't need to be

542
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,120
Speaker 1: an underdog too much of anyone. Dabo twelve and one

543
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: against the spread is a dog of five plus points,

544
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: by the way, So he used to find himself in

545
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: this spot. A lot they always covered sometimes they won.

546
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 1: So As for matchups, though, forget about the past. As

547
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: for the hero of now, the Georgia offensive line and

548
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,959
Speaker 1: quarterback situation against Clemson's past defense is a pretty significant

549
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: edge to Georgia. A lot of edges to Georgia in

550
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: this game. But Clemson is replacing six of eight on defense,

551
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: especially in the secondary especially, and george is deep with weapons.

552
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: There may not be an All American receiver on this team.

553
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: There may not be an All American tight end on

554
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: this team. They are deep and talented with guys that

555
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: can play at a high level. Collectively, it's probably the

556
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: deepest stable of pass catchers they've had in quite a while.

557
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 1: I know, you think, oh, they lost Bowers, what are

558
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: they going to do at tight end? Back fill very

559
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 1: effectively with multiple players. That's what they're going to do.

560
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: They're going to show you they had guys on the

561
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: roster last year that would have started anywhere else at

562
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: that position. That's what they're going to do at tight end.

563
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 1: Georgia also can win running the football. You know, even

564
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 1: if what I just said wasn't true, even if they

565
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: were slightly more one dimensional, they could still win this

566
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,679
Speaker 1: game running the ball. Now, Clemson folks listen to that

567
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: and say, against our front, okay, show it, well, this

568
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: may be the best offensive line you face all year

569
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: at Clemson, So really good matchup there, Uga O line,

570
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: Clemson D line, really good matchup. I just I come

571
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: back to this every time I watch Saban's Bama back

572
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: in the day, Kirby's Georgia. Don't know that I can

573
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: put anyone else in that category. They are not wobbly

574
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: when they come out of the gate. Doesn't mean they're

575
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: not beatable, but they're not wobbly. I don't hand games

576
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,640
Speaker 1: over ever. They're always prepared. So you got to outplay them,

577
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: and hardly anyone ever does period, But out of the

578
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: gate especially, you're always like, oh, we want to get

579
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: them early. No, you just don't want to get them.

580
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,360
Speaker 1: You really just don't want to get them. Because Georgia

581
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: also pretty good lately against ranked teams, ten to three

582
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: against the spread in that category. So let's just take

583
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: a look. We see what the fan duel number is.

584
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: We see Georgia's favor by thirteen and a half. The

585
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 1: model agrees we are right in the line. We think

586
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 1: these are very tight lines for week one, Georgia minus fourteen.

587
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: It's what our model has, and man, I think I

588
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: think it's probably right. I think round two touchdowns is

589
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: the gap we see here. Right now. I'm taking Georgia

590
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 1: to win. I'm gonna take Clemson to cover. I envision

591
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: like a ten point Georgia win in my mind. I look,

592
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: maybe Georgia does to them what they did to Oregon

593
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: a few years ago. That is a still a very

594
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: talented program at Clemson, and I got a hard time

595
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: with all that pressure built up and the way last

596
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: season ended, and how much urgency and how much retrospective

597
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: has been put on that team, and how much of

598
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: a fine tooth comb has been run through it by

599
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: that staff. Picturing them getting run out of the building

600
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 1: in Week one is one that's not impossible, but it's

601
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: uncomfortable on the backside if it does happen, especially with

602
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: the way last year started and knowing how imperative a

603
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: fast start is for them this year. Something tells me

604
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: those folks at Clemson will find a way to keep

605
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: it closed. Something tells me the overall caliber of athlete

606
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: on that team's probably being disrespected just a little bit.

607
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: Still take Georgia to win, though. Oh by the way,

608
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 1: how about the Clatte collab the other day, how about that.

609
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: I've still got a weak voice because Colin, you and

610
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: I stayed here. Jesse bailed you and I stayed here

611
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: till like nine thirty Sunday night, Central Time, cause our

612
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: buddy Joel Klatt clean out on the West coast. Son

613
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: still out where he was, said, hey, man, come on

614
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: the show. Oh, let's just chop it up. And he

615
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 1: opened the door and we walked through. That was really good.

616
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 1: It's over on his channel, Joelat's College Football Show or

617
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 1: the Joel Clatt Show. I don't think he has college

618
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: football in there. So he said something. I'm going to

619
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: reiterate it. You know, it's a weird thing the way

620
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: media used to work versus the way it works now. Oh.

621
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: Everyone used to talk about competition, and they still do.

622
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: The ones who don't get this space talk about competition.

623
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: Most folks who talk about competition don't have the slightest

624
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: clue how competition works. By the way, so in the

625
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: olden days, before the on demand world arrived, if a

626
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: guy like Klatt had a show and I had a show,

627
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: we would be on radio or TV and there would

628
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: be no DVR, there would be no way to record it.

629
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: And so if he's on at three and I'm on

630
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: at three, every viewer he gets is one I don't

631
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: get that is the true cutthroat nature of audience competition. Nowadays,

632
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: it's on demand. Most of you who watch this show

633
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 1: probably watch his as well. There is a huge we

634
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: see the data. There is a massive Venn Diagram overlap

635
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: of our audiences. But that's how you grow the space.

636
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: The goal is to grow the space, and so I

637
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: was more than happy to do that. We had him

638
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: on our show last Christmas or thereabouts. And plus, Klade's

639
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: a great guy. I mean, you know, playoff opinions. Notwithstanding,

640
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: Joe Klatt's a wonderful guy. So I love doing that

641
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: with him. A lot of you have asked us to

642
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 1: do more of that. I'd be happy to. It's got

643
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: to be the right situation, but i'd be happy to.

644
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, we love doing that. So it's over on

645
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: his channel right now if you want to check that out.

646
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 1: Oh you know what else is out there? Moving on

647
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: in the show here, you know what else is out there?

648
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: The Connor Stallion's documentary came out early this morning on

649
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: Netflix and I dutifully watched it for you. Now, I

650
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 1: would say there are going to be some spoilers in this,

651
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: but I don't think it's like a movie This is

652
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: not like when I talked about Twisters on air and

653
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: I said, no spoilers. There's not really anything to spoil. Guys,

654
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: if you've been paying attention, there's not really much in

655
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: this documentary that you wouldn't have already been aware of.

656
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 1: I think what you learn is you learn a lot

657
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 1: about who Connors Stallions is. But I'm just telling you

658
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: I hinted it this several times over the past couple

659
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 1: of months. I told you everything the NCAA was doing

660
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: and their timeline was centered around when this documentary was

661
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: going to come out, and I was intentionally guarded in

662
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: my wording. Couse, what I couldn't tell you yet is

663
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: what I knew. I knew the NCUAA had interviewed him

664
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: for several hours. I knew that. I also knew he

665
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 1: recorded the entire thing, and that wasn't public knowledge, and

666
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: so I didn't know what was on it. I had

667
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: no clue. It could have been bombshells, it could have

668
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 1: been a total firecracker that fizzles. But I knew the

669
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: NCAA wasn't used to that he was sitting on a

670
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: piece of information that he was going to probably be

671
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: put in that documentary, and sure enough he did, and

672
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: I knew that made them uncomfortable because they didn't know

673
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 1: what he was going to run with. Now, as it

674
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 1: turns out, there wasn't really anything jaw dropping, but you

675
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: did get to see a zoom meeting, you got to

676
00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: be taken behind the curtain on an NCAA investment, and really,

677
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 1: in general, it's every bit as unimpressive as you would

678
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: expect the NCAA investigation to be. I'm gonna be honest

679
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: with you, it is my working theory that they probably

680
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: had a lot of footage that could have made the

681
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 1: NCAA look a lot worse, but it didn't serve the

682
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: purpose of the documentary. I'm just telling you. These are

683
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: You picture an NCAA investigation and your theater of the

684
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: mind kicks in, and you know, you're thinking, like a

685
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: dark room and there's haze and cigarette smoke, and a

686
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: guy's got his sleeves rolled up, and everyone's sweating like

687
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 1: it's ninety three degrees in the room, and there's really

688
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 1: dimly lit setting. There's one light overhead, and there's an

689
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: ash tray here and that is not it. That is

690
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: not it. It's just a bunch of career bureaucrats fumbling

691
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: over notes and pre prepared statements and questions, and the

692
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: minute you throw them off their game, it's over. That's

693
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,919
Speaker 1: an NCAA investigation. So I mean, I don't blame Look,

694
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: if Ryan Day went and got his brother's private investigation

695
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: firm to go dig up dirt because the NCDA can't

696
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 1: take a leak without getting in front of their pants wet,

697
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: I would have done the same thing. It was one

698
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: of the big allegations tossed around in this documentary. Well,

699
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 1: you know Ryan Day in Ohio state or behind this,

700
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,399
Speaker 1: if they didn't obtain the information illegally, I couldn't care

701
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 1: less because I'm telling you I would have done the

702
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: same thing because if I thought something wrong had been

703
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 1: done to me and these jokers in Indianapolis aren't going

704
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 1: to do anything, I'll go do something. The other part

705
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: of this, I saw everyone who watched this this morning

706
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 1: take to their various feeds to say the same thing.

707
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,760
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Jim Harbond knew, well, of course he knew.

708
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,680
Speaker 1: This is not news. It's news if he admits it,

709
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 1: which he's not gonna do. But of course Jim Harbond knew.

710
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:47,719
Speaker 1: What can you prove? Probably nothing, Probably nothing. There was

711
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,760
Speaker 1: nothing that was revealed in this that revealed Jim Harbond

712
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: knew anything other than your common sense kicking in. But

713
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 1: your common sense should have already kicked in. Harball's a

714
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: smart guy. Harball's a very cerebral guy. Jim Harbaugh is

715
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: a guy capable of leading NFL franchises and leading major

716
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: college football programs to the brink of Super Bowls or

717
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 1: to national championships, and he's got his hand on everything.

718
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: To ask me to believe Jim Harbaugh didn't know what

719
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: was going on is to ask me to believe he's stupid.

720
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh's not stupid. So long before I pressed play

721
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,359
Speaker 1: on this documentary, my common sense had kicked in and

722
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 1: pretty well figured out, Yeah, Harbaugh knew what can I prove?

723
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: What can you prove? Did you? For those of you

724
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 1: who haven't watched this, I want you to pay attention

725
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 1: to Dan Wetzell over it. I believe Wetsle's at Yahoo Sports.

726
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 1: He's included in this. There's this little throwaway line. I

727
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: didn't see anyone talking about this afterwards, but this is

728
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 1: what raised my eyebrows a little bit. Wetzel revealed he

729
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 1: filed Freedom of Information Act requests with a number of

730
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 1: different entities related to sign stealing, and Wetszell is just

731
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: there's a nice little audio bed under it. You can

732
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,319
Speaker 1: tell they're about to turn the chapter to the next

733
00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: segment of the documentary, and Wessell just kind of says, Yeah,

734
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: you can nail Clemson, you can nail Utah, you can

735
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: nail several other programs if you wanted to. And it

736
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: don't and it's just move on. And I'm like, can

737
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: can someone please hand the mic back to Dan Wetzel?

738
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: What else is he talking about? Danielle not canel Daniel Wetzel.

739
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: What else do you know, sir? Which is why I

740
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: always keep coming back to the same thing as far

741
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 1: as what's been presented in the court of public opinion

742
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: and whatnot, as far as what's been presented in media.

743
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,359
Speaker 1: The reason I haven't gotten too terribly worked up about

744
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: it is not because wrongdoing wasn't done. Of course it

745
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: was done. I think it was done. I mean, I

746
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: think that they did things that were against the rules,

747
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: but it doesn't go above and beyond what we hear

748
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: I hear. Do you have any idea, the kind of

749
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: rumors Clemson. It was good, Wetzel pointed it out, Dude,

750
00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 1: you could write a novel about the rumors that exist

751
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: about Brent Venables when he was at Clemson and what

752
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 1: they did in the way of sign stealing. And the

753
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: follow up is, okay, well was it legal? Was it illegal?

754
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: I'm I don't know because I don't know the details.

755
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,720
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you rumors exist. So what goes above

756
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: and beyond? Like what am I supposed to believe is

757
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: going to be the bomb that gets dropped on Michigan's head?

758
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,840
Speaker 1: Here not answered in this documentary. What was answered is

759
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: you finally got to meet Connor Stallion's dude sat right

760
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,279
Speaker 1: there on camera, and his mom and his dad and

761
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,919
Speaker 1: friends shout out to our buddy, Isaiah. Hole just sat

762
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: there on camera and answered questions. And it's good. It

763
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: was good for Connor Stallions that he did that, because

764
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: that's the one thing I wondered, and I assumed he

765
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 1: would do, but I wondered, like, is he going to

766
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: introduce people to himself? Because if you've just followed this story,

767
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 1: you picture Connor Stallions as some clown, pariah loser fanboy

768
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: sicca me, that's not him. He is a big fan

769
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: of Michigan. But the dude is Razor Sharp. Went to

770
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,439
Speaker 1: the Naval Academy, very so rebral, guy in his own right,

771
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: perfectly cut out to exist in that world, and you know,

772
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: well spoken, represented himself well, just really passionate and found

773
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 1: himself a Niche found himself an inn into college football,

774
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: extremely intelligent, and he applied it and he got himself

775
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: into a really, really, as it turns out, extremely high

776
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: level role at the University of Michigan. Did I get

777
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 1: the whole story from Connor Stallions? It's unlikely Connor Stallions

778
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 1: loves Michigan. Therefore, that makes him an unmotivated truth teller.

779
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 1: In other words, I don't doubt that I got his story.

780
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: Did I get the entire story? I probably did. I

781
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: think he told a ball face lie on this documentary

782
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: when he was talking about the Central Michigan game. Colin.

783
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: By the way, do we have the Pate State Investigates footage?

784
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,879
Speaker 1: Because I'm still contemplating legal action against Netflix. This right

785
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: here is a screen shot I screenshot my screen when

786
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: I was watching this documentary. Morning screenshot is the past

787
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,919
Speaker 1: tense of screenshot by the way, and do you see

788
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 1: what they did to your boy here? Oh, they put

789
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 1: the screenshot from Twitter, so Netflix was fine with doing that.

790
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,919
Speaker 1: They turned me into Josh p not my full name,

791
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: and they would did they make me ex user? Josh?

792
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: That's what they made my handle? Like? Do we have

793
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: no dignity and no class in this world? Is this

794
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 1: what society has come to? In the words of Nick Saban,

795
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: is this what we want college football to be? Shame

796
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: on you people. You have twenty four hours. I don't

797
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: you always give them an ultimatum. Kevin Malone rule, Michael

798
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: Scott rule, you have twenty four hours. So yeah, there

799
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 1: was a lot of a lot of stones thrown at

800
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:43,320
Speaker 1: Ryan Day. I don't care. A lot of stones thrown

801
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 1: back at Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan program. I do care,

802
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna need to see a whole lot more

803
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: than what this documentary showed and what's been presented in

804
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: the media so far. My opinion is unchanged on this.

805
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: My opinion is exactly this as it stands right now.

806
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: I think Michigan will be punished punitively and financially. I

807
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: think they'll suffer a big fine from this. Based on

808
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 1: what I've seen so far. I am totally open to

809
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: any additional information that comes out changing my mind. But

810
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: I don't have that in front of me, and I

811
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 1: cannot go over to buck Nuts or eleven Warriors. I

812
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: cannot wade through all that and treat that as the gospel.

813
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 1: If it ends up being true, it's a it's a

814
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 1: slippery slope when you scan those Ohio state message boards

815
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: right now, If a fraction of that is true, we're

816
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: talking about a different ballgame, and we're talking about a

817
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 1: wrecking ball headed towards the Michigan program. I don't know

818
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: that any of that's true, so history has told me

819
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,399
Speaker 1: if it's true, that's probably not where it'll surface. It'll

820
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: probably come out of nowhere. You got to bring me more,

821
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: got to bring me more than that. It's well worth watching.

822
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 1: Though documentary is well done. They did an excellent job

823
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: producing it. It's just you know, it didn't leave a

824
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: crater in the ground. Shall I say? They're watching us

825
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,399
Speaker 1: in Conyer's Georgia. Someone's watching us in Bangkok, Thailand, And

826
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: they said immunity after Bangkok in the chat, so they're

827
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 1: a real one. Someone's watching us in Louisville, Kentucky and

828
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 1: State College Pennsylvania. Thank you guys so much. Look what's

829

Speaker 1: back tonight, Jesse. The Chalice of Supremacy is back because

843
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 1: the same. So here we go. What a Week one

844
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 1: game in college jas Notre Dame at Texas A and

845
00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: m hat tip Notre Dame and anyone who has the

846
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,440
Speaker 1: stones to schedule big time. Every game's out of conference

847
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 1: for them, but you get what I mean. Big time

848
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: opponents in Week one and to go on the road

849
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,239
Speaker 1: and do it. Hat tip Notre Dame. All right, now,

850
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 1: hou'se Notre Dame gonna find a way to win this game.

851
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 1: You're not gonna see many folks picking Notre Dame. They're

852
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: a two and a half point dog, and yet it

853
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: feels like the Clemson Georgia game in terms of looking

854
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,399
Speaker 1: at you know, straight up picks to win this thing.

855
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 1: Notre Dame paper popper of a stat here, maybe six

856
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 1: of their last seven games versus the SEC decided by

857
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 1: one score A and MH to four in one score

858
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 1: games last year, an M six and one at home

859
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 1: last year, oh and four on the road. Make of

860
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 1: all that what you will. Texas A and M's defensive

861
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: front against Notre Dame's offensive line by ten miles is

862
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: the matchup everyone will talk about most coming into this one.

863
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: They should the Notre Dame offensive line get ready to

864
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: hear this stat. All week six combined starts on this

865
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 1: offensive line. They are playing a true freshman in all

866
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 1: likelihood at left tackle against Nick Scoreton and Kyle Field.

867
00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 1: Just to add insult to injury, you get one hundred

868
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 1: and ten thousand, and you get one of the best

869
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: edge rushers in the game and you were in high

870
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 1: school four months ago, So let's have fun with that.

871
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: The rotation opposite of Nick Gorton of just former four

872
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 1: and five star talent all over the place. People have

873
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,879
Speaker 1: lost their minds if they think Mike Elko is having

874
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,800
Speaker 1: to rebuild or start over at A and m Shamar

875
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 1: Stewart is still here. DJ Hicks is still here, Shamar Turner,

876
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: Gabriel Brownlow Dindy. These are all former five star guys

877
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 1: who will start or play significant minutes for Texas and

878
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 1: M Saturday night against guys who are going to be

879
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: baptized in the whitest hot of fires imaginable. This sport offers.

880
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean they can't win though, just means it's going

881
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 1: to be really tough there. Riley Leonard is the quarterback

882
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,720
Speaker 1: at Notre Dame now and Riley Leonard was the quarterback

883
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 1: at Duke last year. His head coach was Mike Elko,

884
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 1: who is now the head coach at Texas A and

885
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 1: m who does that favor? I'm gonna leave that up

886
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 1: to you. I will tell you this is the fifth

887
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:16,839
Speaker 1: week one quarterback Notre Dame has had in the last

888
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: five years, so not a lot of consistency in that front.

889
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 1: There are plays to be made against this A and

890
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,319
Speaker 1: M secondary. There are probably plays to be met. Chris

891
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,319
Speaker 1: Mitchell's a transfer receiver they got from FIU thousand yard

892
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: guy last year. Do you have time? You can that

893
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:37,839
Speaker 1: offensive line give him any time. It won't consistently be there.

894
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 1: But in a game low scoring. You see the total

895
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 1: here at FanDuel, it's forty six and a half in

896
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 1: a game that figures to be this low scoring. You

897
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 1: know as well as I do, what these games look like.

898
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: It looks very plotting and very slow, and three and out,

899
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 1: three and out, three and out, and then all of

900
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: a sudden, someone hits a slot receiver and he shakes

901
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 1: one tackle and gets loose down the sideline. Boom, he's

902
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 1: inside the fire first and goal gain a forty six

903
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 1: and the game just turned and the past. I mean,

904
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 1: the quarterback was one for his last eight for twelve yards,

905
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: But it doesn't matter becasuse that one play just sprung

906
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,240
Speaker 1: them got him down in the red zone. They attack

907
00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:17,359
Speaker 1: on seven. That's the difference in a game that ends

908
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,320
Speaker 1: twenty three to twenty. That's the way this game probably

909
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 1: plays out. So I don't expect a consistent barrage in

910
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 1: the passing attack. Can they hit a few of them?

911
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 1: And in the process, can they avoid turning the ball over?

912
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 1: Connor Wigman season man quarterback there for Texas A and M.

913
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 1: It's Connor Wigman season, and it's Connor Wigman's season. They're

914
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 1: taking sort of a running back by committee approach. It

915
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: feels like at Texas A and M, this Notre Dame

916
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: defensive line and that linebacker corps. Well, I'll tell you

917
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 1: the secondary as well. I trust them. Look they can

918
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 1: clamp down on Texas A and M as well. Don't

919
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,839
Speaker 1: think they can't. I keep I've heard some people break

920
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,680
Speaker 1: this game down and just talk about how many insurmountable

921
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,280
Speaker 1: edges A and M has. These are not insurmountable ledgs.

922
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,439
Speaker 1: You got one that's a big one. But look, Notre

923
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,360
Speaker 1: Dame could throw the crowbar in A and M's offensive

924
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 1: bicycle spokes as well. So don't think it's impossible to

925
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 1: go to the half here with a nine to six

926
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,919
Speaker 1: kind of game. That's very possible. Offensive line play last

927
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,399
Speaker 1: year at A and M was bad in pass pro.

928
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: So if you got all that fixed and they're well

929
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 1: on their way to doing it because they hired the

930
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:26,240
Speaker 1: right guys. But if you've got all that fixed, that's wonderful.

931
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:27,839
Speaker 1: You're gonna have to prove to me that you did

932
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,919
Speaker 1: that over the course of one spring, in summer and fall,

933
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 1: lengthy drives, Like I said, very unlikely, two or three

934
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 1: explosive plays. I think decide this great offensive coordinator match

935
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 1: up here. Colin klein Elko went and hired Colin kleinb

936
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 1: And you notice they went and got a future tight

937
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: ends out of the transfer portal, really good at using

938
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: those guys. And then you got Mike Denbrock, who was

939
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: last seen winning a Heisman with Jaden Daniels, and he's

940
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 1: up at Notre Dame. Now, Colin, let's take a look

941
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 1: and what the model thinks. We see FanDuel right now

942
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 1: as A and M minus two and a half. The

943
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 1: model has it a little tighter than that. Got A

944
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: and M minus one. Now, I know I just made

945
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:08,799
Speaker 1: the case for Notre Dame. I didn't make a good

946
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,359
Speaker 1: enough case. I think A and M is gonna win

947
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 1: the game. I think they're gonna cover. I went on

948
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 1: CBS Sports HQ earlier this week and I said, I

949
00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 1: think the winner of this game will make the playoff.

950
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:23,719
Speaker 1: Winner of this game, they make the playoff, guys. So

951
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,319
Speaker 1: if I got Texas A and M winning it, and

952
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the odds to win the whole thing

953
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 1: right now, and A and M is kind of sort

954
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: of up there, I'm just saying, we're gonna learn a

955
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: lot about A and M come Saturday, and I think

956
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people are going to realize the cupboard

957
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 1: wasn't nearly as bare as it felt. A little shot

958
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 1: of CEO, a little shot of organization, and a shot

959
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: of newness may have been just what the doctor ordered.

960
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,040
Speaker 1: At Texas A and M. Cooper protecting to put out

961
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 1: the twenty four to seventh sports team Talent Composite the

962
00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: other day, A and M seventh, seventh most talented roster

963
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 1: in the country. Not a long way off, Not a

964
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: long way off at all. He immediately upgraded it at

965
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:08,359
Speaker 1: Duke immediately, because if you've got some of the right

966
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: ingredients in the kitchen and you've just had a know,

967
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 1: nothing in there and they hadn't made a good meal. Sometimes, Okay,

968
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 1: that threw Jimbo into the bus a little bit too much.

969
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: But if you bring a better chef m sometimes he

970
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 1: can make you a little bit better meal without having

971
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: to go to the store. That's about as me, moll

972
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: as I can get on it. Let's move right along.

973
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,680
Speaker 1: I have to do a little bit of soul searching here,

974
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,760
Speaker 1: kind of sort of, so Colin show me that FSU

975
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 1: tweet for me. I was gonna do this the other night,

976
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: but I wanted to let it simmer a little bit more.

977
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 1: So John hit me up. He said, what are the

978
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 1: expectations for Florida State now following their loss to Georgia Tech? Lower?

979
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 1: John Lower, I feel like this is an eight or

980
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:52,400
Speaker 1: a nine win team. I don't feel like they're a

981
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,720
Speaker 1: playoff team. I don't think they'll play for the ACC

982
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 1: Championship right now, and so that means I've changed my

983
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: feel on the team. But I think I got some

984
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,800
Speaker 1: of this stuff wrong the other night. Not necessarily the

985
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: game we saw the game Florida State lost to Georgia Tech.

986
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 1: But I think in the aftermath my understanding of what

987
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:13,279
Speaker 1: happened and why some of us got misled, why the

988
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 1: product on the field didn't match what we expected, They're

989
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 1: gonna be honest, I think I was a little bit

990
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,719
Speaker 1: wrong on it. So I'm going to remind you what

991
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:21,400
Speaker 1: I said on the show the other night, and a

992
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,000
Speaker 1: lot of this particular clip that Colin's going to play

993
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: in a second, it circulated around Twitter and Instagram, and

994
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 1: apparently some folks took it the wrong way. So here's

995
00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 1: what I said, and then I'm gonna explain to you

996
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 1: why I think some of this may have been a

997
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 1: little inaccurate. They were just regurgitating intel that people inside

998
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: the program gave them. Now that is a little more

999
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:45,839
Speaker 1: alarming because that means folks inside Florida State thought they

1000
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 1: had the best defensive line in the country. Folks inside

1001
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,760
Speaker 1: Florida State, folks who you know, do football for a living.

1002
00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 1: Those folks thought that they were going to dominate upfront.

1003
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: Those folks thought that line of scrimmage and run game

1004
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,320
Speaker 1: were going to be their bread and butter here. And

1005
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 1: if DJ's not great, if DJ can't stretch the field vertically,

1006
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 1: that's okay. We'll just rock fight this thing early and

1007
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 1: then we'll give our offense timed a round into form.

1008
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 1: And that is a little more alarming because that paints

1009
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,480
Speaker 1: a picture of a coaching staff that may not have

1010
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: a firm grasp on what the football team was. So

1011
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 1: here's the deal. Mike Norvell does about as good a

1012
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: job as any coach in the country of giving open

1013
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 1: access to the media to Florida State practices. It's like

1014
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 1: the antithesis of what Mario's doing at Miami right now,

1015
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:33,839
Speaker 1: where you have to get a court order to get

1016
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 1: in there. And so when I said that the other night,

1017
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 1: a lot of people took that to mean I was

1018
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 1: suggesting people who cover Florida State misled their subscribers or

1019
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:51,440
Speaker 1: their readers or their viewers. Not that at all. What

1020
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 1: I was saying was I thought some of the information

1021
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:59,759
Speaker 1: they had gotten from coaches was bad information. They had

1022
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,439
Speaker 1: been passed that on, and it was kind of more

1023
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 1: on the people inside the program that had misled folks

1024
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,280
Speaker 1: in the media. Well, I don't think that's what happened.

1025
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,320
Speaker 1: I did a whole lot more digging on this today.

1026
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,360
Speaker 1: Appreciate some folks reaching out to me, both on the

1027
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,040
Speaker 1: media side and the NFL side. I think what happened

1028
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 1: is folks from the media side and folks from the

1029
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 1: NFL side made their way through Tallahassee throughout the fall,

1030
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 1: and they saw exactly what they saw. They saw a

1031
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 1: ton of talent. They saw a ton of speed, they

1032
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 1: saw size, they saw length, they saw athleticism, they saw explosiveness,

1033
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 1: they saw physical traits. And the good thing about talent

1034
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,399
Speaker 1: is you gotta have it. You gotta have talent to win.

1035
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,759
Speaker 1: But talent does not equal a football player. There's a

1036
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,760
Speaker 1: lot more that goes into making a good football player

1037
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,759
Speaker 1: than just having a lot of talent. And I think

1038
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: what folks saw was the same thing you and I

1039
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,120
Speaker 1: would see if we went to a Florida State practice

1040
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,359
Speaker 1: down there. We would have seen freak shows. We would

1041
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:58,839
Speaker 1: have seen aliens. We would have seen guys who look

1042
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 1: like maybe a hand all of other programs in the

1043
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 1: country have and plentiful enough supply to put him on

1044
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:06,000
Speaker 1: a one or two deep and we would have said,

1045
00:53:06,320 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 1: this team right here is going to be serious again

1046
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 1: this year. And we would have thought that because your

1047
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: eyeballs look at humans of that size moving that fast,

1048
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 1: and your eyeballs say, who's beating them? Football players are

1049
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:24,600
Speaker 1: beating them. Florida State has more talented players than Georgia Tech.

1050
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 1: Florida State didn't have better football players than Georgia Tech.

1051
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:32,160
Speaker 1: That's the real problem, that's the real alarming part. Now,

1052
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:35,080
Speaker 1: if they played again this week, Florida State may win

1053
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: the game, but they weren't ready as a football team.

1054
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,719
Speaker 1: The football players weren't ready to play football. And it's

1055
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 1: always a concern at any major program, Georgia, Florida State, everywhere,

1056
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 1: do you count on that spear on the helmet to

1057
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 1: just get rolled out on the field and do the

1058
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 1: work for you? Now, Georgia they don't deal with that

1059
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,239
Speaker 1: because they got a culture there. At Bama, At Ohio State,

1060
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 1: at Michigan, they don't deal with that. At Oregon they

1061
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 1: won't deal with that because there's a culture of competition

1062
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 1: there where folks understand that's not how it works. Do

1063
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:12,359
Speaker 1: they have that at Florida State. Mixed results right now,

1064
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,319
Speaker 1: very mixed results. The mind matters a lot, the heart

1065
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 1: matters a lot. Talent matters. Talent on mixed football player.

1066
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,320
Speaker 1: You mix that talent and you mix that brain and

1067
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:28,319
Speaker 1: awareness and attentiveness to detail and how you use it,

1068
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 1: and you mix heart. And the heart's the hardest part.

1069
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,799
Speaker 1: The heart. We would never an evaluator at the NFL

1070
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:36,920
Speaker 1: level would never be able to gauge heart By just

1071
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,720
Speaker 1: probably going and watchington practice. You may get anecdotal stuff

1072
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:41,719
Speaker 1: here and there, But you know what you gotta have.

1073
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:45,360
Speaker 1: You gotta have third and three over in Ireland against

1074
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 1: a team full of engineering majors. That's what you need.

1075
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,719
Speaker 1: I don't say that pejoratively. I say that knowing full well,

1076
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 1: Florida State should have an edge in all those categories

1077
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 1: over Georgia Tech, and they didn't. And it's their fault.

1078
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 1: No one else's Georgia Tech. Hats off for winning the game.

1079
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 1: That's on you, Florida State. That's on the football players

1080
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,880
Speaker 1: or lack thereof at Florida State. Now, look, it doesn't

1081
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 1: have to be anything other than a lesson. Like it

1082
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:10,640
Speaker 1: could be that the team goes on to finish eleven

1083
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 1: and one and they go to Charlotte and they atone

1084
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 1: for it all. They've still got the requisite talent to

1085
00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 1: get the job done. Do they have the football players

1086
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: to get the job done. So. I don't think it

1087
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 1: was folks down there got misled by intel as much

1088
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 1: as folks went to practice and saw with their own

1089
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 1: eyes how relatively loaded the roster still is. But their

1090
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 1: eyes deceived them because when it came time to play

1091
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:40,560
Speaker 1: football games, guys were probably more cut out for the

1092
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,560
Speaker 1: combine and Instagram than they were to go win a

1093
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,279
Speaker 1: football game. And it's funny I mentioned Instagram because half

1094
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,319
Speaker 1: of them have taken their profiles down. A bunch of

1095
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 1: alphas down there in Tallahassee right now, let's move on.

1096
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,759
Speaker 1: Your boy here, never criticizes anyone, you know, So let's

1097
00:55:54,800 --> 00:56:00,319
Speaker 1: move on. Penn State at West Virginia, big noon kickoff. Jesse,

1098
00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 1: are you nervous? You got to go on the road here?

1099
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:07,319
Speaker 1: It's Morgantown, Jesse. Jesse likes this matchup. Producer, Jesse likes

1100
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 1: this matchup. So let's just say this out loud. So

1101
00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:12,319
Speaker 1: the game's down to eight and a half now, Penn

1102
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 1: State at FanDuel favored by eight and a half. Hats

1103
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 1: off again, out of conference Week one game, very intriguing.

1104
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:23,000
Speaker 1: We got Gus and Joel on the call here, Penn State,

1105
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:27,439
Speaker 1: if we say it out loud, extremely hostile environment here,

1106
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:32,919
Speaker 1: new offensive coordinator, new defensive coordinator, on the road. All

1107
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 1: the makings right, all the makings. Well, let's dive in

1108
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 1: because it feels like a terrible match up for West

1109
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: Virginia once you dive in a little bit. Last year

1110
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: had a bad hiccup not West Virginia. They actually had

1111
00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 1: a good year last year. I had a bad hiccup there,

1112
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: very run heavy team, struggled to throw the ball. Penn

1113
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 1: State they are very veteran inside on this defensive line,

1114
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,680
Speaker 1: they have full grown men there, really good pair of

1115
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,600
Speaker 1: edge you guys. Zach Frasier was the center in this

1116
00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:06,839
Speaker 1: game last year that gave Penn State some problems. He's

1117
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,719
Speaker 1: not there anymore. And so I'm sitting there looking and

1118
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:12,279
Speaker 1: I'm saying, I don't think they're gonna run it on

1119
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 1: Penn State. Can they throw it on them at Can

1120
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 1: Garrett Green sync up with new receivers? These are transfer receivers.

1121
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 1: I mean Jaden Bray for example, Can he sync up

1122
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 1: with him? This was a fifty four about a fifty

1123
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:27,000
Speaker 1: four to fifty five percent completion guy last year. They're

1124
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 1: going to need to throw the ball on Penn State

1125
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:32,040
Speaker 1: to win it. Everyone's focused on these new corners at

1126
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:35,040
Speaker 1: Penn State. Well, first off, even if they haven't fully

1127
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: settled in, we think they have. But even if they haven't,

1128
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 1: is this the team to expose that now? Josh, you

1129
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 1: know Drew Aler didn't throw the ball well last year either,

1130
00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,560
Speaker 1: well against Ohio State. He didn't against Michigan, he didn't.

1131
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 1: Drew Oller threw for three twenty five and three touchdowns

1132
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 1: against West Virginia last year, so this was the one

1133
00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:56,720
Speaker 1: where he did go off. I think it was his

1134
00:57:56,760 --> 00:58:00,120
Speaker 1: first career start too. So does that pass game click immediately?

1135
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:01,600
Speaker 1: You know we got Andy cold Nicki in their new

1136
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. I don't think it's a huge key. Even

1137
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:06,880
Speaker 1: if it doesn't. Maybe they throw the ball well, But

1138
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 1: even if they don't, should this not be the game

1139
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:13,040
Speaker 1: or a game where k Tron Allen and Nick Singleton

1140
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,240
Speaker 1: just kind of lean on West Virginia. Shouldn't they be

1141
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 1: able to go in there and take that crowd out

1142
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 1: of the game. Yes, the answer is they should. On

1143
00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:25,880
Speaker 1: this paper, games were played on this they should. Will

1144
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 1: they be able to? West Virginia could have something to

1145
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,400
Speaker 1: say about this. On third down, if they can earn

1146
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:35,440
Speaker 1: the right to rush the passer first and ten, second

1147
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 1: and eight, third and six, if you can get to

1148
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:41,240
Speaker 1: third and long obvious passing downs, then you've earned the

1149
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 1: right to expose whether they've backfilled for Olu Fashanu at

1150
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:48,560
Speaker 1: left tackle. He's off to the NFL now, so maybe

1151
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:51,200
Speaker 1: there's a vulnerability there you can take advantage up. They

1152
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:54,760
Speaker 1: led the big twelve in sacks last year at West Virginia,

1153
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: but you got to get there, and I think they're

1154
00:58:56,800 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 1: going to have a tough time getting them in those situations.

1155
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:05,240
Speaker 1: State wants to run it. I just this stylistically, the

1156
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:08,680
Speaker 1: strength for West Virginia, strength for Penn State. They don't

1157
00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:10,720
Speaker 1: match up in a way where it makes me feel

1158
00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 1: overly confident for West Virginia here. So let's take a

1159
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: look at what the model thinks. The model is even

1160
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,040
Speaker 1: more bullish this numbers come down. There's been money that

1161
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 1: came in on West Virginia because this was Penn State

1162
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 1: minus ten and a half and now it's down to

1163
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: Penn State minus eight and a half. The model liked

1164
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 1: where the number was Originally we've got Penn State minus ten.

1165
00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 1: I thought about it, guys. I want to let you

1166
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 1: know I thought about it. But I am going to

1167
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,520
Speaker 1: go with Penn State to win, Penn State to cover.

1168
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 1: It's treacherous. It's treacherous, but let me remind you. Let

1169
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 1: me just remind you. West Virginia ohe and four against

1170
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:48,560
Speaker 1: the spread in their last four games against ranked teams.

1171
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,160
Speaker 1: And look, I don't do that a whole lot the trends.

1172
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:53,800
Speaker 1: I don't really believe in trends all that much, and

1173
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: it gotally I'll throw it out there early in the

1174
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 1: season because we don't have in season stats to go

1175
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 1: off of yet. These numbers, by the way, available courtesy

1227
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 1: Chow's not over. The football part of the show is over.

1228
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: So I need to put I need to put my

1229
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:52,120
Speaker 1: handy dandy lipbomb on. You guys have been asking me

1230
01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,800
Speaker 1: to do what I'm about to do for like two years,

1231
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 1: and I figure this is as good a time as any. Please,

1232
01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:02,600
Speaker 1: if you're watching, make sure you're subscribed. If you're listening,

1233
01:03:02,600 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 1: make sure you subscribe. Okay, Colin, this is going to

1234
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:10,200
Speaker 1: be rambling incoherence. We don't have any other camera shots

1235
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: to go to because our new studio is not ready yet,

1236
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 1: so just stick on me here. This show's pretty unique.

1237
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,080
Speaker 1: There's a lot of inside jokes on this show. This

1238
01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 1: show makes no sense if you just walk in off

1239
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 1: the street. So I figured we would take time tonight

1240
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 1: to explain this show. And in the future, if you

1241
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,440
Speaker 1: have a buddy, or you have any cousin or anything

1242
01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,160
Speaker 1: that starts watching the show and they're asking you what

1243
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:32,960
Speaker 1: does this mean? What does that mean? You direct them

1244
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 1: to this segment and this segment alone, because I'll explain everything.

1245
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:38,960
Speaker 1: We just changed the name of the show, like twenty

1246
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,800
Speaker 1: four hours ago. It used to be Late Kick. Now

1247
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:44,000
Speaker 1: it is Josh Payt's College Football Show. We did that

1248
01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:47,600
Speaker 1: because I just wrapped up negotiations with CBS. They were

1249
01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:51,360
Speaker 1: great about it. I'm staying at CBS. We have signed

1250
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:55,080
Speaker 1: an extension there, and in turn, I own the YouTube

1251
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 1: channel and I own the podcast feed. It is now

1252
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,920
Speaker 1: appropriately named Josh Pat College Football Show. Some of you

1253
01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 1: question why I change the title. It's a legal thing.

1254
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 1: So that's why this show is called what it's called.

1255
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,800
Speaker 1: We air Sunday night, Tuesday night, Thursday night. We are

1256
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 1: as live as live can be. I will go over

1257
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,360
Speaker 1: to the live chat right now and I will put

1258
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:17,880
Speaker 1: in let's just put a smile's face there. You go,

1259
01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:21,440
Speaker 1: all right, we prove we're live. We're on the road

1260
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 1: every week in the fall. We have our own tour

1261
01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,160
Speaker 1: that we're allowed to do because great partners like Quick

1262
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:29,160
Speaker 1: Trip come in and make it possible. We had the

1263
01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:32,040
Speaker 1: Renaissance Tour in twenty twenty one, we had the Every

1264
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:34,720
Speaker 1: Given Saturday Tour in twenty twenty two, the Once Upon

1265
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:36,920
Speaker 1: a Saturday Tour last year, and this year we have

1266
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 1: the whole New Saturday Tour. We're big fans of Saturday.

1267
01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 1: On the show, I get to hand pick which game

1268
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:45,720
Speaker 1: we go to, and that's really fun. I wear a

1269
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:48,800
Speaker 1: white T shirt for every show that we do on air,

1270
01:04:49,240 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 1: and I do that because back in the day, I

1271
01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:54,040
Speaker 1: was working in local television and I had a big

1272
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:56,919
Speaker 1: argument with a news director of mine one day because

1273
01:04:56,920 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: I was doing a college football show and I thought

1274
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 1: it was really dumb to have to wear suit to

1275
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:04,000
Speaker 1: talk about sports on TV. He disagreed. I was working

1276
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 1: on his dime, and so at the time I told people,

1277
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,560
Speaker 1: if I ever make it big, I am going to

1278
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:11,640
Speaker 1: go above and beyond to prove that people could not

1279
01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:14,600
Speaker 1: care less what you wear, and in fact, it appeals

1280
01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:17,640
Speaker 1: to them more if you just dress down. Because we

1281
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 1: are again we're not talking about neurosurgery here. We're talking

1282
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:24,080
Speaker 1: about Texas A and M versus Notre Dame and whether

1283
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:26,280
Speaker 1: Notre Dame's offensive line can stand up. Why would I

1284
01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:29,040
Speaker 1: wear anything more than a T shirt. Well, now that

1285
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,360
Speaker 1: we got our own show here, I just wear the

1286
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:33,280
Speaker 1: same thing every show. And you know what, it's the

1287
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 1: number one college football show in the space anyway. So

1288
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 1: it turns out you guys don't need to see people

1289
01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:40,160
Speaker 1: wear four thousand dollars suits talk about football. We've got

1290
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,840
Speaker 1: our own power ratings on this show. We call them

1291
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:46,080
Speaker 1: the JP Pole. It is a Vegas Odds making neutral

1292
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 1: field favorability type pole. It's not a ranking. I have

1293
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:51,640
Speaker 1: to explain this every week. One of the big inside

1294
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,520
Speaker 1: jokes on the show is no matter how many times

1295
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:56,760
Speaker 1: I explain it, as soon as we post it on

1296
01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:00,600
Speaker 1: social people will lose their minds. People who know the

1297
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:03,200
Speaker 1: least about it, we'll talk the most about it. I

1298
01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:05,200
Speaker 1: can count on you guys to come in and defend me.

1299
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:09,240
Speaker 1: But the running joke is, well, they're not rankings. How

1300
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,919
Speaker 1: can you have Florida State ranked above Georgia Tech. I don't,

1301
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:14,760
Speaker 1: They're not rankings. There is a difference between the two.

1302
01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 1: The ramen Noodle Express represents our official best bets that

1303
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:21,760
Speaker 1: we release every week now powered by FanDuel, the exclusive

1304
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 1: odds provider of our show, and the Ramandudal Express is

1305
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 1: named what it's named because when I was doing local

1306
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 1: radio in Columbus, Georgia, back in twenty twelve twenty thirteen,

1307
01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 1: there was a guy who called in one day and

1308
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:37,000
Speaker 1: I hope he's still with us, and I hope he's

1309
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: still solvent, and he claimed that he needed some betting pigs.

1310
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 1: We gave them to him. It was only after we

1311
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:45,200
Speaker 1: gave them to him that he in a very dead

1312
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:49,600
Speaker 1: serious Harvey Updyke Ash's manner told us, I hope you

1313
01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:53,320
Speaker 1: guys hit on these. My children need this. They will

1314
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:55,560
Speaker 1: have to eat ram noodles this week if you don't.

1315
01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:58,800
Speaker 1: He was not joking. As it turns out, now we

1316
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:01,760
Speaker 1: did okay that week. I cannot vouch for what happened

1317
01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 1: to him. I'm pretty sure that child protective services have

1318
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:07,360
Speaker 1: long since taken care of the children. But that is

1319
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 1: why we call the best bets the ramin Noudle Express

1320
01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:13,880
Speaker 1: on Friday nights. I am on the road this Friday night.

1321
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:15,920
Speaker 1: I will be in a hotel in either Jacksonville or

1322
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 1: Gainesville about ten or so. I will take this phone,

1323
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:23,680
Speaker 1: which has this little kickstand on the back of it.

1324
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:26,560
Speaker 1: I will prop it up on a nightstand somewhere in

1325
01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:29,040
Speaker 1: a hotel. Don't worry, it's not going south. Guys. You

1326
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 1: can keep the kids listening, and I will do what

1327
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:34,120
Speaker 1: we call Friday Night Lines, and that's where I will

1328
01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:37,800
Speaker 1: fire Instagram live up at late kick Josh, make sure

1329
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:40,360
Speaker 1: you're following. That's the only platform we do this on.

1330
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 1: And I will talk with you guys via the live

1331
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 1: chat for about twenty or thirty minutes, and I will

1332
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,320
Speaker 1: have this computer here pulled up, and I will have

1333
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:51,920
Speaker 1: our model pulled up, and we have a number on

1334
01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:55,520
Speaker 1: every college football game that's going to be played. Most

1335
01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:57,800
Speaker 1: of the games I will not be betting on. I'll

1336
01:07:57,880 --> 01:07:59,840
Speaker 1: let you know the ones I am betting on. You

1337
01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,320
Speaker 1: guys are interested in them, and so I will let

1338
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:04,680
Speaker 1: you know what the model thinks about the games you're

1339
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:07,120
Speaker 1: interested in that I didn't cover on the show, and

1340
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 1: that I'm not betting myself. Friday Night Lines is probably

1341
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:12,440
Speaker 1: some of the most fun content that we produce all year.

1342
01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 1: We do it every week. It's live, it's very unfiltered.

1343
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:16,519
Speaker 1: It's not approved by management. It is brought to you

1344
01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 1: by FanDuel, and we do it on Friday Night, and

1345
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:21,439
Speaker 1: it will premiere for the twenty twenty four season this

1346
01:08:21,560 --> 01:08:24,880
Speaker 1: Friday Night. I'm really into storm chasing. There are a

1347
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:28,160
Speaker 1: lot of storm chasing themes woven into the show. It

1348
01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 1: is my biggest hobby. I do it in the spring. Frequently.

1349
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,040
Speaker 1: We have to change the airing of the show in

1350
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:36,760
Speaker 1: the spring because I'm on the road chasing tornadoes. I

1351
01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:40,160
Speaker 1: have seen fourteen of them in person. This last spring

1352
01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:43,719
Speaker 1: was particularly active. I love trains. I grew up loving trains.

1353
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:46,599
Speaker 1: I am not a little kid anymore, but I still

1354
01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 1: love trains like I did when I was a little kid.

1355
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:52,080
Speaker 1: So when we made our fictitious university. We made our

1356
01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:56,400
Speaker 1: mascot the Frights the Pate State. Frights Pate State. If

1357
01:08:56,439 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 1: you didn't catch that is the fictitious university. We just

1358
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:01,479
Speaker 1: kind of made up. Because if we're going to be

1359
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:05,080
Speaker 1: a college football show and we believe in branding, I figured,

1360
01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 1: why not have our own fictitious university. Why not call

1361
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 1: it Payton State? It rhymes and everything. Why not get

1362
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:15,800
Speaker 1: ourselves a mascot. Why not get ourselves a secondary mascot. Look,

1363
01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 1: there's Chuggy right there. Chuggy's at the bottom of the screen.

1364
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:23,760
Speaker 1: So our biggest rival is management. But lately Management has

1365
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,320
Speaker 1: really stuck his neck out for us. So it's it's conflicted.

1366
01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:30,559
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of a love love hate relationship. And

1367
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:33,519
Speaker 1: you know, he's he's long since left work. He's probably

1368
01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 1: m he's probably well deep in h in peen and

1369
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 1: wah by this time of night. So I'll send this

1370
01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: to him tomorrow morning. I'm not sure the signal makes

1371
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:43,960
Speaker 1: it through the gate down there in his neighborhood anyway,

1372
01:09:44,120 --> 01:09:48,479
Speaker 1: But Management is a frequent contributor to the show. We

1373
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: don't let him represent himself, so I speak for him

1374
01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:56,600
Speaker 1: on the show. This is a chalice of supremacy. It

1375
01:09:56,760 --> 01:10:00,880
Speaker 1: is the most sacred thing that we have tangibly on

1376
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:03,760
Speaker 1: this show. I sip a mysterious liquid out of this

1377
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 1: chalice sometimes. As such, you cannot buy one of those.

1378
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:13,000
Speaker 1: The Pate State store will be opening up again very

1379
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,720
Speaker 1: very soon, but those will not be in there. Some

1380
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 1: of you, one of you asked me today, can I

1381
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,479
Speaker 1: buy a chalice of supremacy? You cannot. You can win one,

1382
01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:24,600
Speaker 1: you can earn one. There are no set rules. But

1383
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,640
Speaker 1: if you do something that goes above and beyond to

1384
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:31,880
Speaker 1: promote this show publicly somehow, if you just do something incredible,

1385
01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:36,559
Speaker 1: save someone from a burning building, etc. I will send

1386
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: you a chalice of supremacy. We've sent out about what

1387
01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 1: Jesse about one hundred to one hundred and fifty chali,

1388
01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:44,360
Speaker 1: which is the plural of chalice of supremacy. You never

1389
01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:46,559
Speaker 1: know when it's gonna happen. A couple of years ago,

1390
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:49,400
Speaker 1: a bunch of you bombed college game Day and you

1391
01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:52,320
Speaker 1: held up Peate State signs behind Herb Street and Desmond

1392
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:54,880
Speaker 1: and Rees and whatnot, and I sent out several chawli.

1393
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,719
Speaker 1: You also got U banned from college game Day. Paper

1394
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 1: Pop anytime. When I do this on the air, it

1395
01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:05,960
Speaker 1: just means business. When we play the Sarah McLachlin music

1396
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:09,839
Speaker 1: in the background, it is meant for the Sarah McLachlin special.

1397
01:11:10,280 --> 01:11:13,240
Speaker 1: And this Sunday, actually, for the first time this season,

1398
01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:16,240
Speaker 1: we will have the Sarah MacLachlan Special of the Week.

1399
01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:19,400
Speaker 1: And the Sarah McLachlin Special of the Week is when

1400
01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:24,040
Speaker 1: one of your teams has so thoroughly been splattered or

1401
01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,599
Speaker 1: body bagged, or had the walls painted with their blood

1402
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,479
Speaker 1: and just flat out put to sleep that it warrants

1403
01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:33,840
Speaker 1: some soft, sad, somber piano music as I read a

1404
01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:38,479
Speaker 1: stat line, maybe even a padlock stat. A padlock stat

1405
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,840
Speaker 1: is a stat that, if you knew it beforehand, would

1406
01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:44,040
Speaker 1: give you a full indicator as to how the game

1407
01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:46,559
Speaker 1: was going to go. You hear me say the word

1408
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,000
Speaker 1: immunity on the show. A lot longtime viewers of the

1409
01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:52,639
Speaker 1: Office are very familiar with that's what she said jokes.

1410
01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:56,799
Speaker 1: It's very sophomoric. But we also built ourselves a mechanism

1411
01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 1: in our social circle to where if we say the

1412
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:02,559
Speaker 1: word immunity before we say something like wow, that's big,

1413
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,280
Speaker 1: you cannot hit us. Whether that's what she said, and

1414
01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:08,519
Speaker 1: so I will randomly weave it into every show and

1415
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:14,719
Speaker 1: don't apologize for it. Casuals are people who aren't like us.

1416
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:18,320
Speaker 1: I don't use the word so much anymore because a

1417
01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:21,480
Speaker 1: lot of people started abusing the word casual and misusing

1418
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:24,080
Speaker 1: the word casual, and then it became kind of cringey.

1419
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 1: But the theory of a casual is the people who

1420
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 1: did the people who think you are what your record

1421
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:32,600
Speaker 1: says you are. The people who are totally happy with

1422
01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:36,559
Speaker 1: having Saturday Fall weddings and getting mad at you if

1423
01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:38,599
Speaker 1: you think college football is more important than their wedding.

1424
01:12:38,720 --> 01:12:41,679
Speaker 1: Those are casuals, and we don't really roll with them

1425
01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:46,759
Speaker 1: so much. Smart people can say casual things. Sometimes casual

1426
01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 1: people rarely say smart things. That is a quote for

1427
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 1: me Mo. We lost Mema on two thousand and five.

1428
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: Mem was a real person. Me Mo, in an axe

1429
01:12:55,400 --> 01:12:59,200
Speaker 1: accident early in her life, lost her middle three fingers

1430
01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,559
Speaker 1: and she live the rest of her days writing with

1431
01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:05,840
Speaker 1: just her pinky and her thumb. And it was that

1432
01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 1: way ever since I was born, So I always thought

1433
01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:10,599
Speaker 1: that was normal. My friends had to point out that, hey,

1434
01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:12,840
Speaker 1: you know your me Ma only has two of her

1435
01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:14,800
Speaker 1: five fingers, and she writes with it didn't that kind

1436
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:16,920
Speaker 1: of weird to you? I'm glad you asked. No, it's

1437
01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:19,639
Speaker 1: not weird at all. Director Colin's been with me since

1438
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,719
Speaker 1: I first got here. The day that I walked into

1439
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:25,080
Speaker 1: at the time, the twenty four to seven Sports offices

1440
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 1: in Nashville, I met Colin and I had him walk

1441
01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:32,439
Speaker 1: me over to their studio that they had, and I

1442
01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:36,200
Speaker 1: flowed in an idea to Colin. I said, Colin, first off, Hi,

1443
01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,600
Speaker 1: I'm Josh. Secondly, you're telling me you know how to

1444
01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:42,519
Speaker 1: work a TriCaster, you know how to punch a show

1445
01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 1: like you know that? And he said, yeah, does anyone

1446
01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 1: here know that you know how to do that? Uh?

1447
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,080
Speaker 1: They don't really ask And so I asked him, and

1448
01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:53,160
Speaker 1: so director Colin and I the day I got here

1449
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:57,040
Speaker 1: launched the idea to do at the time late kick Life,

1450
01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:58,920
Speaker 1: and we started doing it. And then COVID set in

1451
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,880
Speaker 1: and we weren't dumb enough to talk about politics or

1452
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:04,519
Speaker 1: infectious disease on the college football show that we started,

1453
01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 1: so we stuck to college football the audacity right, and

1454
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:11,360
Speaker 1: the show skyrocketed immediately and it's never slowed down. And

1455
01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:13,519
Speaker 1: so now We kind of get to do whatever we

1456
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 1: want to because the show makes a truckload of money

1457
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,559
Speaker 1: for everyone around here, and so they kind of stay

1458
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:20,200
Speaker 1: out of the way, and we really appreciate it, and

1459
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:23,799
Speaker 1: they're very cooperative with us and let us do, frankly,

1460
01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:25,320
Speaker 1: more than I ever thought would be able to do

1461
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:29,240
Speaker 1: Friday night lines. I already explained to you it happens

1462
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 1: on the eye, Josh, which is just what I call

1463
01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:33,800
Speaker 1: my iPhone. There's really not a whole lot to that.

1464
01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:37,160
Speaker 1: If it sounds duchey, it is, and I'm not apologizing

1465
01:14:37,160 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 1: for that either. The Peate State stories, I said, will

1466
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:44,519
Speaker 1: open up again very soon. We are extremely well sourced

1467
01:14:44,560 --> 01:14:49,360
Speaker 1: here through the most atypical means possible. As we started

1468
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:51,800
Speaker 1: the show, a lot of people appreciated it because the

1469
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:54,280
Speaker 1: entire reason we started the show is I didn't think

1470
01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,599
Speaker 1: most of the college football shows out there were worth anything.

1471
01:14:57,560 --> 01:14:59,760
Speaker 1: I grew up watching some of them, I didn't think

1472
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:02,320
Speaker 1: they were good anymore. I thought the NFL had like

1473
01:15:02,479 --> 01:15:04,320
Speaker 1: like forty seven different kinds of shows out there, and

1474
01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:07,320
Speaker 1: college football is the second biggest sport in this country,

1475
01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 1: but it was very underrepresented, and so we set out

1476
01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 1: to do a show that wasn't full of debate, wasn't

1477
01:15:14,120 --> 01:15:17,160
Speaker 1: really like a hot take show. It wasn't an ex's

1478
01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:19,920
Speaker 1: and o's show, per se. We just wanted to make

1479
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:21,920
Speaker 1: a show that sounds a lot like what you do

1480
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,000
Speaker 1: when you and your buddies go eat lunch. You just

1481
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:26,519
Speaker 1: talk about college football. I know because I did the

1482
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:29,080
Speaker 1: same thing when I was working in the fabric warehouse

1483
01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:31,960
Speaker 1: down in Columbus. I go to Clearview Barbecue around twelve

1484
01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:33,839
Speaker 1: o'clock every day and we just talk about college football.

1485
01:15:34,160 --> 01:15:37,000
Speaker 1: So what those conversations sounded like at the lunch table

1486
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:38,920
Speaker 1: is what we try and make this show sound like.

1487
01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:40,800
Speaker 1: It's appealed to a lot of you, but you know

1488
01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:45,200
Speaker 1: who else. It appeal to players and coaches, a lot

1489
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:47,800
Speaker 1: of them appreciating that the sport's being represented the way

1490
01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:51,200
Speaker 1: they want it represented. And so we've built a network,

1491
01:15:51,560 --> 01:15:55,519
Speaker 1: an army of sourcing, and now I can't go an

1492
01:15:55,560 --> 01:15:58,760
Speaker 1: hour of a day without hearing from an offensive coordinator

1493
01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:02,680
Speaker 1: or an agent, or someone running a recruiting department, or

1494
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:05,880
Speaker 1: someone in the world of media. And all that we

1495
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:08,200
Speaker 1: do is we take that and we try and build

1496
01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:11,160
Speaker 1: the most informed show we possibly can. It is built

1497
01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:14,519
Speaker 1: to serve the audience. It will always be built to

1498
01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:16,439
Speaker 1: serve the audience. I know we have some fun on

1499
01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:18,640
Speaker 1: here from time to time, and it can sound like

1500
01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:20,840
Speaker 1: it's self agrandizing a little bit. I promise you it's

1501
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:22,640
Speaker 1: the last thing in the world that we try and

1502
01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:26,080
Speaker 1: build this thing to be because there is nothing special

1503
01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:28,880
Speaker 1: about us. There's something special about the fact that you watch.

1504
01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:31,280
Speaker 1: That's what's special about him. So we don't take that

1505
01:16:31,320 --> 01:16:35,760
Speaker 1: for granted and we never will. Also, we don't really

1506
01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:37,920
Speaker 1: have many guests on the show. I do go out

1507
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:39,680
Speaker 1: on the road in the spring, we sit down with

1508
01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 1: the head coaches. Pretty much every one of them in

1509
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:43,800
Speaker 1: the country open the door to their facilities for us

1510
01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 1: and we can go and we can get sit downs

1511
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:48,080
Speaker 1: with them. But by and large, especially in the fall,

1512
01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:52,240
Speaker 1: we don't have guests except for Thursday nights because yes,

1513
01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:54,840
Speaker 1: col cuts will be back this year and our buddy

1514
01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:59,400
Speaker 1: Cole Kubleck starting about forty eight hours will be stopping by,

1515
01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:01,599
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna do something a little different this year

1516
01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:03,880
Speaker 1: with col Cutz. I'm gonna look at the live chat

1517
01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:08,519
Speaker 1: when I bring Cublic on and we're just going to

1518
01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:12,280
Speaker 1: react to the live chat. Could be terrible, could be great.
