1 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: A couple of you noticed that new tab on the 2 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: YouTube channel collaborations.

Just thanks to our friends at 8 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: YouTube for setting that up. It is Thursday. It is 9 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: October second. The Arm of Our Lord twenty twenty five 10 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: were jam packed hi atop a very warm downtown Nashville, Tennessee. 11 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: I told everyone false fall was upon us. You remember 12 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: three or four weeks ago, Week one, it was gonna 13 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: be in the seventies. And then I said, it's not over. 14 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: It's not over. Summer's not over. Well, now summer is over, 15 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: but summer temperatures still linger. It won't last forever, I 16 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: promise you. Eventually we'll get to a point where it's 17 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: twenty two degrees at kickoff in Columbus, Ohio for a 18 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: playoff game, or maybe not because they have a first 19 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 1: round by anyway, Upset alerts on the show tonight, Yes, yes, yes, yes, 20 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: we got them all over the place the commissioner's pole 21 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: drops in just a matter of minutes, got some movement, 22 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: got some teams that I did not expect to be ranking. 23 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: I didn't expect to be ranking teams period, but here 24 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: we are. I didn't expect to be ranking these teams 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: in the top twenty five. But yeah, I am a 26 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: fair ranker. I watched the games, which you know what, 27 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna say it, dynasties. Lane Kiffin had 28 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: to say something about dynasties, and I agree with him, 29 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: and I really wonder how much the college football public 30 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: has realized how dead the concept of dynasties are in 31 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: college football, and also what it means about competitive balance 32 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: and parody. Because everyone claims they want it, and there's 33 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: some great things about it, there's some other things that 34 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: I just think we need to bear in mind about it. 35 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about that, and we're really going 36 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: to just use it until Kublick picks up the phone 37 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: a little bit later on. So it could be a 38 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: four minute segment, Jesse, it could be a nine minute segment. 39 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: You never know. Our balls are in his court. They're 40 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: watching us in Woodstock, Georgia, Montreal, Canada, best pro wrestling 41 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: city in the country, actually in any country, because it's 42 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: not in our country, Louisville or Louisville, Texas, Louisville, Kentucky. 43 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna throw them in and Charlotte, North Carolina. 44 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: I have fortunate news if you go to bed early, 45 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: unfortunate news if you're a night out. I again have 46 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: to do Friday Night Lines at five eastern fourth Central 47 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: tomorrow on Instagram live at Josh pat CFB because once 48 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: again I am being summoned to play softball before we 49 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: fly down to Tallahassee tomorrow night. And again, look, it's 50 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: not like I want to do this. It's not like 51 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: I want to play church league softball on Friday nights. Okay, 52 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm obligated. I'm committed to the team and so as 53 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: a result, we just have to shape our Friday accordingly. Again, 54 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: this is my sacrifice. So you think I want to 55 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: just be playing softball, You're crazy. No, absolutely not. But 56 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: I have to do this. I have to do it 57 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: all right, here we go. Last week this segment ended 58 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: up being pretty prophetic. The upset Alert meter, powered by 59 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: our friends at flex Power mind You is pinging once 60 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: again and get good generators at flex Power. Buddy. The 61 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: upset alert meter generated some serious shockways last week. Remember 62 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: Jesse when we dared even mention USC and Illinois and 63 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: people are like, why are you even talking about that game? 64 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: Why are you even throwing that game in there? Well, 65 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: the line was six and a half. What Virginia is 66 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: not going to beat Florida State? Why are you even 67 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: throwing that in there? Oh? I think we'll just go 68 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: ahead and mention it anyway. Bam bam bam. It's like 69 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: the opening scenes of Armageddon, just asteroids all over the 70 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: place the movie, not the portion of revelation. People calm down. 71 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: So Kentucky's playing Georgia this weekend. You know they go 72 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: to Athens Georgia classic get right spot line is twenty 73 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: and a half. All right, so just dust your hands off. 74 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 1: Good hard fought win over Kentucky. Well is their upset 75 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: alert potential here? Both teams are off losses, not just Georgia. Kirby, 76 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've ever listened to him talk 77 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: about Mark Stoops in Kentucky. You cannot get a question 78 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: out of your mouth about Kentucky without Kirby reminding you 79 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: how physical Kentucky is how much those two programs believe 80 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: in the same principles and how close the games have been, 81 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: how competitive the games have been, And he's not wrong. 82 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: First paper pop of the night. Are you aware that 83 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: Kentucky has held Georgia to twenty one or less in 84 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 1: four of their last six meetings? I am again because 85 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: stats and Info informed me this was a knockdown, drag out. 86 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: What was it like fourteen to thirteen last year? Now 87 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: that was up there. This is gonna be at Georgia. 88 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: Georgia going from facing the number two passing defense in 89 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: the country to facing number one oh six. This is 90 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: where I feel like that wide receiver corps can really 91 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: get back to work. Georgia is gonna have to have 92 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: that anyway. I think they're gonna find it here. Now. 93 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 1: On the flip side, Zat Calzada is back for Kentucky, 94 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: and I leave it up to you. That's open for interpretation. 95 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: You make of that whatever you want. I just know 96 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: that stylistically this matchup has always yielded weirdly competitive outcomes. 97 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: It's a matchup thing. Kentucky cannot tote Georgia's jock when 98 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: it comes to comparative program strength, but matchup wise, they 99 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: always give them a hard time. So I'm gonna put 100 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: this at a five, which is way higher on the 101 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: one to ten upset alert concern meter than a twenty 102 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: point spread normally would be. But that's where we are. There. 103 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: Next up a game that had much much more marquee 104 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: attraction in the preseason than it does this week. Did 105 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: you know Boise goes to Notre Dame. Did you know that? Well, 106 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: fewer of you knew it than you would have had 107 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: Boise not lost to USF or Notre Dame had not 108 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: lost to Miami and A and M. Because right now, 109 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: I think we could have gotten some pretty good money 110 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: if we bet that there would be a combined three 111 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 1: losses in this game by the time it happened. But 112 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,239 Speaker 1: yet here we are. However, in the interest of upset 113 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: alert concern here, I'm going to put a six on 114 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: this game. Notre Dame's favored by the same number as 115 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 1: Georgia is over Kentucky. Notre Dame's favored by twenty and 116 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: a half, but Boise has pulled the nose up a 117 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: little bit now. They scored seven against USF in Week one. 118 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: That's the last time most of you paid attention to them, 119 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: and I will grant you, I can't blame you. They've 120 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: scored fifty one, forty nine and forty seven since then. 121 00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: They are top twenty rush and pass again because of that. 122 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: Notre Dame's defense good week last week on the scoreboard. 123 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: Have we just solved all the problems that we saw. 124 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure there's a little bit different organizationally. They're defensively 125 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,119 Speaker 1: because there had to be, so, I'm sure they've shaken 126 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: some things up there. Is it all just fixed after 127 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: a fifty six to thirteen win against Arkansas? Shame on 128 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: you people for what you did, Sam Pittman, Shame on 129 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: Notre Dame for what they did to him. As long 130 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: as CJ. Carr is good, you're good in this game. However, 131 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: if Boise starts pushing you a little bit more, then 132 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: you're comfortable with. If that game looks like it's going 133 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: to be played in the high twenties and the thirties again, 134 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: then there's a chance that you turn it over. There's 135 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: also lingering in my memory the Northern Illinois game. There's 136 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: also lingering in my memory the Marshall game. Marcus Freeman 137 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: has dropped these kinds of games before. Now, they weren't 138 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: in desperation mode then like they are now. They have 139 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: no wiggle room, there's no margin for air. They know 140 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: they got to run the table here to make the playoff. 141 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: And even then some people are out there debating whether 142 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: they'd make it him. I'm gonna put a six on 143 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: this one. It is going to attract at least one 144 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: of my eyes attention. On Saturday, Texas texat Houston on Saturday. 145 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: Houston's undefeated, take notice, so is Texas Tech. Houston's got 146 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: the sixteenth rank defense in the country right now, and 147 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: they've got Connor Wigman at quarterback. Texas Tech's got a 148 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: whole bunch of guys who you saw probably for the 149 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: first time against Utah. And what was notable of that 150 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: about that game is, of course they went in there, 151 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: they won I think thirty eight ten. They pulled away 152 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: from them, and they pulled away with their backup quarterback. Well, 153 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: he's back this week. Baron Morton's back this week. Now. 154 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: Houston is top ten in turnover margin, so they've taken 155 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: the ball away so far this year. Baron Morton's given 156 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: it away a few times. Joey maguire has squashed any 157 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: talk of quarterback controversy anything like that. Baron Morton's healthy, 158 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: He's going to start for him. Look, I just question 159 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: if Houston does put forth a strong defensive effort here, 160 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: even if they do for us a turnover, maybe they're 161 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: plus one. You can't predict this, but let's say they're 162 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: plus one turnover. Can they score enough? Because Texas Tech 163 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: can suffocate you. I think this is going to be 164 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: a lower scoring game. With the lower scoring profile comes 165 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: a little more variance in outcome. Eleven and a half 166 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: is the number here. Texas Tech favor by eleven and 167 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: a half. I'm putting a five and a half on 168 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: it now. Candidly, I picked Texas Tech to win and cover, 169 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: but I didn't bet it just to pick. I'm gonna 170 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: put a five and a half on it, though. When 171 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 1: you can play defense, you give yourself a chance. Clemson, 172 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: Clemson's playing North Carolina. What do you think the number is? 173 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: Fourteen and a half is the number? Clemson minus fourteen 174 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: and a half? Clemson coming off the buy And I 175 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: got to tell you something. The model here, not me, 176 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: Let me stress, not me. The model loves North Carolina 177 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: this week. I say that publicly because that's the last 178 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: Ye're gonna hear of me talking about betting North Carolina 179 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: this week. I'm not doing it. I am not gonna 180 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: be that guy. But the Model wants me to be 181 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: that guy. It has North Carolina plus fourteen and a 182 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: half inexplicably circled as one of the best bets of 183 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: the week. Their offense is one hundred and thirty fourth 184 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: in total yards per game. They are one hundred and 185 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: thirteenth in rush yards per game. They're one hundred and 186 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: twenty fourth in pass yards per game. They're one hundred 187 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: and eighth and third down conversion percentage. They're one hundred 188 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: and thirty fourth in explosive plays. Clemson, last time you 189 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: saw them was busy toting another l They are off 190 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: a by It is the most desperate get right spot imaginable. 191 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: Dabo has basically been fending for his life up there 192 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: at press conference podium, and now we get to play 193 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 1: football again. Clemson if they have a slow start here, Honestly, 194 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 1: I still don't know how it would happen. I don't 195 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: know how the upset would happen. The numbers fourteen and 196 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: a half. Okay, I would be way more shocked at 197 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: this upset happening than I would boise over Notre Dame then, 198 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: I mean would this would be right up there with 199 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: some of these three touchdown spreads. So I just don't 200 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: get it. But the model does, or it thinks it does. Anyway, 201 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put a four on this one. Huh, three 202 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: and a half. I'd have to see it to believe it. 203 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: Next up, Penn State favored by twenty four and a 204 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: half at UCLA. It's a two for me. It's a 205 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: two on the upset alert concern scale. If Penn State's 206 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: just normal, this is a blowout win. This is medicine. 207 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you build that home game up against Oregon 208 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: and then you drop it in the fashion you did. 209 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: This is medicine. You are sick, and college football's remedy 210 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: is go play Ucla. There's all kind of staff upheaval there, 211 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: and actually, those of you who have watched the show 212 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: for a number of years, you know we love betting 213 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 1: on backup quarterbacks, and we love betting on teams when 214 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: coaches have been fired because we think that the hit 215 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: that they take in power ratings is actually over corrected, 216 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 1: and we think there's value there here, not in this 217 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: particular case. So Penn State just lost Tony Rojas maybe 218 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: for the year for an extended period of time. And 219 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: he's one of the guys we had circled. They're about 220 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: four of them on Penn State's defense. They really can't 221 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: afford to lose, and they just lost one. I just 222 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: don't know that it bites them this week. Down the road, 223 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: it may bite him. I don't think he's going to 224 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: bite him this week. Here's my question, Who's got the 225 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: better quarterback in this game? If you think that's disrespectful 226 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: because the other guy's Nico iyam Alaiava. If you think 227 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: that's disrespectful to Drew Aller, look at the numbers and 228 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: if you're listening on podcast, Nico's got the better completion percentage, 229 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 1: He's got the better pass yards per game. Drew's got 230 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 1: him total touchdowns by one. They Drew's thrown two picks, 231 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: Nico's thrown three. Nico's like quadrupled him up or something 232 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: like that in or tripled him up in rush yards 233 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: that it's an uncomfortable stat profile, trust me. Producer Jesse 234 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 1: had to make it earlier. Today. You think he enjoyed that. No, 235 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: he did not. I don't know if Penn Sdy's got 236 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: a huge quarterback edge here. I know they should, I 237 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: don't know that they do. And if we rewind a 238 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: couple of classes ago, it's two five star quarterbacks there. 239 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: And imagine just telling yourself, boy, they're gonna face off 240 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. I would have thought it maybe 241 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,079 Speaker 1: in the national title game. I would have thought it 242 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: may be like a playoff semi final game. Instead, it's 243 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: Week five in the Rose Bowl, dozens of folks waiting 244 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: for the game to start, most of them in blue 245 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: and white. And I'm gonna put a two on the 246 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: upset alert concern scale here. I'm not that concern. Lastly, 247 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: this may be the game kublicas this week. I think 248 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: we'll ask him in a little while. Mississippi State's at 249 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: Texas A and M. A and M's a fourteen and 250 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: a half point favorite. Mississippi State off a gut punch 251 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: of a loss in overtime to Tennessee at home. A 252 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 1: and M is off what the locals are calling a 253 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: flawed win. Okay, Mike Elco none too please that he 254 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: was getting criticized out there, the gloomy questions his words, 255 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: not mine, gloomy questions, and the press are after a win. 256 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: He had to set them straight out there. They beat 257 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: Auburn sixteen to ten. They've also hung forty plus on 258 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 1: the road to beat Notre Dame. Mississippi State. They can 259 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: throw the ball deep. They got that capability. They're top 260 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: ten and passes A thirty plus forty plus fifty plus, 261 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: so the super explosive the sees if you will, they're 262 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: pretty good at that. However, they allow sacks, so they've 263 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: had a hard time protecting the quarterback, and A and 264 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: M notably can get after the quarterback. A and M 265 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: top ten and sack percentage per drop back and Mississippi 266 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 1: State in the one hundreds in sacks allowed. Mississippi State 267 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: can create turnovers, though, so look for efficiency from Marcel Reid. 268 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: If it's there, they're okay here. If it's there, State 269 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: is an undervalued team. Still. I think this number was 270 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: put out by FanDuel begging you to take Mississippi State. 271 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: I took Mississippi State because I see the trap being set. 272 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: But I think we set a counter trap in that 273 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: I think Mississippi State's still a little undervalued, and for 274 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: our purposes perpi plural of purpose, this week to bet 275 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: State is probably a good thing. They lost that game 276 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: against Tennessee. They tasted what could be, but then it 277 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: got snatched from their fingertips. And now they go on 278 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: the road and now they got to fight and the 279 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: Jeff Levies. They got to find a way to win 280 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: one of these games. They got to get that program. Definer. 281 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: You got the Arizona State game. It's not a conference game. 282 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put a seven on this one. I think 283 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: this is going to be a competitive game. And there 284 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: you have the upset Alert meter for week number six. 285 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: I've got huge breaking news, Jesse. I think we can 286 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: call this breaking news from Quick Trip, exclusive fuel provider 287 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: of the Fall, don't lie tour no Less.

So I'm giving you a whole week. 291 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: But if you're listening anywhere near Cincinnati, if you're listening, 292 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: I'm sorry about the Red season coming to an m 293 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make you forget all about it, though, Westchester, Ohio, 294 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: a little just northeast of Sincy. Friday, October tenth, we're 295 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: having a rare regrand opening of a Quick Trip. Why 296 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: are they regrand opening this thing because we missed it 297 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: the first time? Are bad? Okay, we'll take the fall 298 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: for it. In return, you get a whole regrand opening 299 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: up there.

We'll be their Saturday. Actually we'll be there 315 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: late tomorrow night, but we'll be there Saturday. Looking forward 316 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: to it. Have not been to a Florida State home 317 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: game since twenty sixteen. It's time for the drought to end. 318 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: All right, let's continue. The Commissioner's pole has just dropped. 319 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: The paper's still hot, fresh out of the printer. These 320 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: are not Power ratings. These are in fact rankings. I 321 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: did it once early in the season, and then everyone said, 322 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:40,959 Speaker 1: we want you to do it. Then flex Power hit 323 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: us up and said, we'd love to generate that. We 324 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 1: make generators, we'd love to generate the Commissioner's poll. And 325 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: I said okay and okay, and then I started to 326 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: have fun doing it. So now it's a staple of 327 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: every week's show, especially since someone has to market correct 328 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: the abysmal nature of the ap pole here lately. So 329 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: I'm not afraid to move teams, but I am going 330 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: off merit. I'm measuring resume and I am not trying 331 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: to predict what you're gonna do. That's the JP Poles job. 332 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: That's on Tuesday. No, This is just about what you've done. 333 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,239 Speaker 1: So let's take a look. Twenty five through twenty one. 334 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: Us F is still holding strong. Memphis Memphis G five. 335 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: Josh is happy to report that Memphis has showed up. 336 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: The interlocking Mississippi State logo is still there. We had 337 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: state like twenty ath or nineteenth last week and they 338 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 1: lost to a team in the teens. We don't think 339 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: they should drop all that much. They've still beaten Arizona 340 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: State too already, so and I don't care what I 341 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: think they'll do. Okay, if they go get beat by 342 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: thirty Saturday at A and M, I'll adjust, but I'm 343 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 1: not measuring what I think you're gonna do. Illinois has 344 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 1: checked in. Just saw them in person last week. They're 345 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: at twenty two. Louisville is at twenty one. Louisville, Illinois, 346 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: and Memphis were all unranked last week, So welcome to 347 00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: the party, guys. Twenty Penn State has dropped. Penn State 348 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 1: has dropped. Not in the ape pole, you know, but 349 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 1: for those of us who actually believe in measuring resumes 350 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: instead of what we thought in July and baking what 351 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: we thought in July. Like I mean, we got folks 352 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: still operating off conversations they had at media days with 353 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: Penn State's AP pole ranking No. Penn State's twentieth, and 354 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: they're lucky to be there. Michigan is nineteen, Texas is eighteen. 355 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: I'll get back to Texas in the second Tennessee is seventeen. 356 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: Lsu drops to sixteen. I have been accused of being 357 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: a Texas homer for a long time. I was aware 358 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: of those allegations, and I know where it comes from. 359 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: We've given preferential treatment to Texas on the show. I 360 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: go out there all the time. I actually low key. 361 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: You know, I shouldn't say I love it because that'll 362 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: ruin the stereotype that surfaced about me. The model has 363 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: always been drunk on Texas. So when it comes to 364 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 1: the JP Pole, when it comes to power ratings, we've 365 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 1: always got Texas rated high. I've always been aware of 366 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: those allegations. What I was not aware of, Jesse until 367 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: this week, until the last seven two hours, is there 368 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: are rumors circulating on the Internet that I have become 369 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: a Texas hater. A friend of the program, Will Compton, 370 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: has fanned these flames, but he didn't start the fire. 371 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: Billy Joel Didton, Will Compton didn't. But it hasn't always 372 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: burned since the world's been turned in, So where did 373 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: it come from? Well paid State investigates Trademark has tracked 374 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: it down to a few message board threads wherein some 375 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 1: lives are being spread. It's the nature of message boards. 376 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: And should I sign up for an account just so 377 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: I can log in to defend myself? No, I will not, 378 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: But I'm going to tell everyone the same thing I 379 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: told that random dude who has a Lamborghini as his 380 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: profile picture on Twitter last night. If anyone wants to 381 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: bring concrete evidence of me being a Texas hater, that 382 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: doesn't include me making a prediction on a game you 383 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 1: disagree with. Any concrete evidence, bring it to the attention 384 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: of me, or bring it to the attention of the 385 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: staff at Texas, and they'll bring it to me. But 386 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: it hurts. It hurts to hear those allegations. Who's to 387 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: the funk it Texas hater whoms to the funking Georgia. 388 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: We got them at fifteen, they dropped ten spots. We 389 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: got Bama at fourteen, I got Florida State at thirteen. 390 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: I was wrestling with this because I still have this 391 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 1: power ratings mentality in my mind. But that's not what 392 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: a poll is, that's not what ranking should be. So 393 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: I think Florida State and BAMA have comparable resumes, Like 394 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: their best win FSU's is over Bama, Bama's is over Georgia. 395 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: So anyway, if I think they're comparable, I've got to 396 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 1: acknowledge the head to head result, right, So that's why 397 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: Bama's of course going to go ahead of Georgia. But 398 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: that's why FSU's got to go ahead of Bama. Now, 399 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: Bama's got Vandy this week. FSU's got Miami this week. 400 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: So this could solve itself. This could work itself out. 401 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: Remember we adjust, we start from scratch every week with 402 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: the Commissioner's pole here. But I do have FSU at thirteen. 403 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: I've got Missouri at twelve, Iowa State's at eleven. This 404 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: is another classic case of people who keep on keep 405 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: on voting and ranking based on what they expect to happen. 406 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: Like you expect Iowa State will end up losing some games. 407 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: Some people think they'll lose to SINCI this weekend. They're 408 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: down two starting corners. Irrelevant, irrelevant, irrelevant, what have they done? 409 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: They've beaten a bunch of Power four teams. Oh josh, 410 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: but it was just Kansas State and it was just Arizona. 411 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: It was okay, who have the rest of you beaten? 412 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: I didn't rank them third, but I put them eleventh. 413 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 1: They're undefeated. Who am I supposed to put above them? 414 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: I got ten teams above them? But like, who beneath 415 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: them definitively has a better resume than Iowa State Right now, 416 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. Georgia Tech's at ten. I got Indiana 417 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: at nine, Texas Tech at eight. I've got Vandy at 418 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: seven again, not because of what I thought about him 419 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: in the preseason, because of what they've accomplished, which, by 420 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 1: the way, begs the question if Vandy goes into Tuscaloosa 421 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: and win Saturday, where could they How high could they 422 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: end up? Texas A and M I've got at six. 423 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: They are up five spots. Still looking good, still looking good. 424 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: Of course I've got that Tech SAgs money in my pocket, 425 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: so of course I would have A and M ranked 426 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: in the top six. Why not top five? Because Billy 427 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 1: Luchi didn't pay me enough. That's why top five? Oh 428 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: you the John Matier injury is not baked into this 429 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: again because the materiar injury has not lost them a 430 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: game yet. I'm not predicting what I think will happen. 431 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 1: I'm just ranking what has happened. Ole mess is four, 432 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: Oregon is three, Ohio State two, and I got Miami 433 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: still number one, which means we are going to see 434 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: the number one team in the country according to the 435 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: Commissioner's poll in about forty eight hours. Looking forward to it. 436 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: Until then, Let's just say I needed some clothing. Academy 437 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: Sports and Outdoors. Yeah, let's say I needed some golf 438 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: Academy Sports and Outdoors. I don't need big league Chew 439 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: because they sent me a whole bucket of it last 440 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: year and I'm still not out. But let's say I 441 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: need a big lead Chew Academy Sports and Outdoors. If 442 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: I needed tailgating equipment up to it, including canopies and 443 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: chairs and grills. Academy Sports and Outdoors. Let's just say 444 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: I'm signing the kiddos up for flag football this fall. 445 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: Academy Sports and Outdoors. They got your gear, they got 446 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: everything Academy dot Com. If you can't get there in person, 447 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: They're amazing. They're wonderful. They're longtime partners of ours and 448 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: we appreciate them. Flane Kiffin's been talking and making a 449 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: lot of sense. So someone asked me if I saw 450 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: this thing that Kiffin was talking about, and I did, 451 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: so we're gonna throw it in the show here for 452 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: just a second and then we'll get to Cublic. Carter 453 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: from Norfolk, Virginia hit me and said, did you see 454 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: what Kiffin said about dynasties being over? Isn't this something 455 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 1: you've said before too, Yes, and yes, Carter. So this 456 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: was with ESPN. I think Lane Kiffin was talking to ESPN, 457 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: and I don't even know what he was asked, but 458 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 1: you don't really need that to know the context here. 459 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,679 Speaker 1: He said, in my opinion, dynasties are over Alabama with 460 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: coach Saban and then Kirby at Georgia where they had 461 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: those rosters year in, year out, and they'd be a 462 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: bunch of wins by thirty in the conference. Those days 463 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: are done. When I was at Bama, they'd be like, 464 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: go watch the outside linebackers. There's six of them over 465 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: there that are first round picks. That's not going to 466 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: happen anymore because if they don't play, then they're going 467 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: to leave. They can't keep them all anymore. Well that's true, 468 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: all right, So what does this do like? First off, yes, 469 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: he's right, He's unequivocally right. The concept of a dynasty 470 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: in college football, to me, has to be re engineered 471 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: or reimagined to just be who has their team in 472 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: contention to make the playoff every year. If you could, 473 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: if you could freeze college football right now and in 474 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 1: the climate that exists currently, if you could go ten 475 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: straight years of being within reach giving yourself a punch 476 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: chance at winning a title, that's that's dynasty worthy. But 477 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: that's not how people define dynasties. They defined dynasties by 478 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: winning championships, and by that metric, I don't know that 479 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: you're going to do that in college football anymore. Now. 480 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: I don't know what the future holds. Big changes could happen, 481 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: but if things are the way they are, or they 482 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: continue to trend further down the road that they've gone down. No, now, 483 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: not a lot of people are complaining about it because 484 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,959 Speaker 1: it's brought a lot more competitive balance to the sport. 485 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: So what does it mean. It means more wide open 486 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: conference races and more wide open playoff field pictures. Yes, 487 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: it does mean that. It means more upsets because you 488 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: kind of shaved the tops of the tallest trees, which 489 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 1: means there are no more, you know, like insurmountable hurdles 490 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: out there. There's more volatility week to week. That's how 491 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: you have. You know, already we've seen Florida State beat Alabama, 492 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: then go loose to Virginia. We've seen all kinds of 493 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 1: crazy stuff, and that's always in college football. I just 494 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: think in the aggregate, there's more of it now, and 495 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: there will be more of it moving forward. It's still 496 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: a pretty small sample size because we've only had things 497 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: as they are a few seasons. So that'll continue down 498 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 1: that road. Think about the second half of the season. See, 499 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 1: this is what worries a lot of coaching staffs. A 500 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: lot of coaching staffs look at it and say, we're 501 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: thinner than we've ever been before. Maybe that doesn't bite 502 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: us in September, maybe we get through early October, but 503 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: by the time mid October gets here, no one has 504 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: escaped injury. Some of you have been bitten harder than others, 505 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: but no one escapes it. And if the fact of 506 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: the matter is if you're Georgia, if you're Alabama, if 507 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: you're Miami, if you're Oregon. It doesn't matter anybody here. 508 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: No one's immune from this. You are so disproportionately more 509 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: vulnerable to one or two key injuries creating massive, massive 510 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: fissures on your team profile than they used to, where 511 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: you just backfill with, oh man, well now we got 512 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: to start a five star true freshman, like that was 513 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: your vulnerability. Now it's not that anymore because the guy 514 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: that you would have plugged in there is he went 515 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 1: to start for USC, so he's not there anymore. George 516 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: is dealing with that right now. Actually, so the depth 517 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 1: thing bites those teams more the second half of the year. 518 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: Also the G five teams. You know, it's one thing 519 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: to watch the G five in September or be playing 520 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: the G five team in September versus playing him in 521 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: October and November, because they're frontline guys on the G 522 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: five level, especially the upper tier of the G five, 523 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: and I would know is G five, Josh, Those are 524 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: just guys that couldn't quite make it on the Power 525 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: four in some cases Power two rosters. So they're going 526 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: to start for a Memphis or Tulane or whatnot. So 527 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: if you're playing those teams in September and you're getting 528 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: their fastball, there's not that big a separation between their 529 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: front line guys and you if you're a Missouri or 530 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: something like that. But if you played them in November, 531 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: that's one layer of jelly there. Once you scrape past 532 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: the top layer, that's when the depth really disproportionately bites 533 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: the G five teams. So the net result of all 534 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: this is good to the public. You're looking at the 535 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: team portal rankings from on three this past cycle Texas, Tech, 536 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: lsu Ole, miss Oregon. You just had a lot of 537 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: talent moving around and the public has looked at it, 538 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: and what the public has picked up on is Wow, 539 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: this makes the results a lot more randomized, It makes 540 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: more teams able to compete, It opens up the playoff 541 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: picture more more teams theoretically could win the championship. That's 542 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: the elusive parody, that's the elusive competitive balance that people 543 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: had sought out for a long time. And there's no 544 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: catch there. That really is happening. That really is as 545 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: it appears, And I don't have a problem with that. 546 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm not fighting against that. There is one thing I 547 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: couldn't help but think about last week when I was 548 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: at the Alabama Georgia game. It could have just as 549 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: easily cropped up in my mind this week or the 550 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: week before, but I was thinking about it last week. 551 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: I was talking to a couple of people about it. 552 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: Last week. I was standing there watching midway through the 553 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: third quarter, and it's just collision after collision, and occasionally 554 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: you got an injury time out and you're looking at 555 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: the medical tent over their Kuway Russol for Alabama walks 556 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 1: buying a boot, and immediately your mind starts going, ooh, 557 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: what's their depth situation there? And then you're looking at 558 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: a clean white jersey out on the field and it's 559 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: a true freshman, or it's a red shirt freshman who 560 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 1: hadn't played, and they probably weren't planning on playing them. 561 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: And so that's a first world problem, cause you know, 562 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: Bama's second stringers are still really good, but I was 563 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: thinking to myself, they're not nearly as good as they 564 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 1: used to be, nor are Georgia's, nor are anyone's. And 565 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: so I thought to myself, the rosters have never been 566 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: thinner for the big boys than they used to be. 567 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: They're about to a ninth conference game in the SEC, 568 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: they've already done it in the Big Ten. You're also 569 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 1: adding at least one marquee out of conference game, So 570 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: you're really gonna play at least ten high level games 571 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: every year with thinner rosters. The expectations are gonna be 572 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: really slow to recalibrate, because Kiffn went on to say, 573 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: and I agree with him, they're gonna be a lot 574 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: of pretty good teams that go eight and four, maybe 575 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: even seven and five, just because of how compacted the 576 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: nature of the field is. And people are still clinging 577 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: to this idea that you know, ten and two, that's 578 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: kind of your baseline, and maybe we'll go eleven and one, 579 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: but ten and two, nine and three worst case scenario. 580 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: That is not the worst case scenario, even for high 581 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: level teams anymore. And so you got all that and 582 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: you throw it in a blender, and no one's gonna 583 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: feel sorry for coaches because they're gonna make a ton 584 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: of money. But I was just thinking to myself about 585 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: how big an ask that is. Like those two things, 586 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: converging thinner rosters combined with a way a tougher schedule 587 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,479 Speaker 1: moving forward and what November looks like. And I'm just 588 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: I'm in September. I'm watching guys walk off in boots 589 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: on the sideline and thinking to myself, if that guy's 590 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: not back, what is the nature of that linebacker depth chart? 591 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: And that's that's even if no more injuries happen. And 592 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: so the one thing I was thinking, I don't know 593 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,479 Speaker 1: that there's an answer to this, But the one thing 594 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: I was thinking is, all right, we all claim that 595 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: we want competitive balance, we all claim we want parody. 596 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: Is there a line, like, is there a threshold that 597 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: you go past? And seeking out parody leads to diluting 598 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: the on field product too much? Cause, I mean, the 599 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: bigger critical mass of younger, not as ready players that 600 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: get put on the field, the lower the caliber of 601 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: play is now in the NFL, that kills you. Because 602 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: the NFL is all about caliber of play. College football 603 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: is about a whole lot more than just the quality 604 00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: of play on the field. So you could sell me 605 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: that it doesn't matter, it'll always be relative, and it's 606 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: about tradition and pageantry and all the stuff that sells 607 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: about college football, and no one's really going to care 608 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: if if Arkansas's outside linebacker room is really really fractional 609 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: to the quality that it used to be, you may 610 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 1: be right about that. I was just thinking about it 611 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: the other day, that that's one of the unintended consequences, 612 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: or maybe an intended consequence that you don't have to 613 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: worry about as much as a coach has to worry about. 614 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, he's right, dynasties. Who in the world's about 615 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: to win three titles in five years? Who's about to 616 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: win three titles in ten years? I have no idea 617 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: how that happens anymore. If you think you do, though, Hey, 618 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: if you just think you know how the games are 619 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: going to go this weekend, go over to FanDuel right now. 620 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: Fifty percent profit boost people on Miami Florida State. That's 621 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: the game we're going to be at now. I didn't 622 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: bet on that one. Who knows, Maybe I will before 623 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: kickoff Little Team Total Action. But if you want to, 624 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 1: that's a fifty percent profit boost over there.

We're laying the points with Louisville Louisville minus 643 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,919 Speaker 1: six and a half. Tonight we are adding Kansas State 644 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: plus six and a half. They're on the road at Baylor. 645 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: Six and a half continues to be a haunted number, 646 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: but we're trying to be on the right side of it. 647 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: I want to tell you, and I want you to 648 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: remember this.

Is that where you're going this weekend? 693 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 2: That is correct? We will be there looking forward to it. 694 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:50,720 Speaker 2: Out of the maroon. 695 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, we expect a competitive game there, But that's actually 696 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: not the one I want to ask you about. First off, 697 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 1: I want to ask you about a game that I 698 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: drew a lot of heat for the other day because 699 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: I had the audacity to pick the home team to win. 700 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 1: And I picked Florida to do a Mark Callaway special 701 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: better known as the Undertaker, and to just do the 702 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: full set up out of the grave and compete, you know, 703 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: kind of like they did last year and win a 704 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: football game here. And I laid it out and it 705 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,359 Speaker 1: was tough, trust me. It was one of those give 706 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: me a game plan where twenty points is enough kind 707 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: of routes, and I think I found it. I found 708 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: it enough where my heart was able to let me 709 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 1: sleep at night the other night. I think that Jaden 710 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: Ball sees a whole lot more workload this weekend than 711 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: he has recently. I think there's still a lot to 712 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: be seen, a lot to be proven from that Texas 713 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: passing game. They get to go into a really hostile 714 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: environment here again for the first time since Columbus. I 715 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 1: don't know that the separation potential is there in the 716 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: wide receiver room, at least like it was last year. 717 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 1: So I was able to resolve in my own mind, 718 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: Florida's got a shot to win this thing. What do 719 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: you expect from Texas Florida. 720 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 2: There's a path in which you try to take that 721 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 2: game that I can see it going. The offensive line 722 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 2: for the Florida Gators is gonna have to play a 723 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 2: lot better. Jaden Ba has the ability to get loose. 724 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 2: The problem is where a lot of the issues are 725 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 2: with Texas. It's not on that side of the football. 726 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 2: It's the other side of the football. 727 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 3: So if Florida were. 728 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 2: To win this game, I think you're gonna see arch 729 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 2: Manning sacked four to six times. I think one of 730 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 2: those would have resulted in at least one turnover. You 731 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 2: may see a special team's touchdown from Florida. You're gonna 732 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,360 Speaker 2: get great field position for the Gators to where they 733 00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 2: could take some shots towards the end zone. But I 734 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 2: don't see necessarily Florida's offense just going out and being 735 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 2: the reason that they win this game. Because Colin Simmons 736 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 2: and company are still playing good football. Michael Taffick company 737 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 2: are still playing good football. That Texas defense the all 738 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 2: who has been playing great off the ball at linebacker. 739 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: It's not just the edge defenders, it's the secondary. It's 740 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 2: the linebackers trade more off on the football. That group 741 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 2: has still been outstanding. Now the offense is where I 742 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 2: have the issues with Texas, where they're ranked, the way 743 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 2: people view them, what they kind of seemingly are in 744 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 2: the public eye right now, Josh, because the playmakers aren't 745 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 2: making plays. You can try to go blame march Manning, 746 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 2: and I do think he was pretty amped up in 747 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 2: the beginning of the season. Ashley thought the last two 748 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 2: games he began to calm down just a little bit, 749 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 2: began to find some rhythm, began to find that calm 750 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 2: in the pocket that I think a quarterback has to 751 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 2: have to truly go be elite or great. The problem 752 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 2: is when you allow UTEP to put out the best 753 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 2: tackling performance I've seen this season in a single game 754 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 2: because your guys were getting put into the ground in 755 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 2: one on ones. I'm not gonna be overly confident that 756 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 2: your playmakers are gonna do that against a pretty good 757 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 2: Florida defense. And no, there won't be a Caleb Banks, 758 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 2: but Tyreek scept George Gumms. This is a Florida defense 759 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 2: that can still get after you up front. 760 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:56,720 Speaker 3: Secondary has some holes. 761 00:40:56,760 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 2: But the Texas playmakers, at least by the standard that 762 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 2: I watched them a year ago, have not been doing 763 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 2: those things. 764 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 3: And if that happens in this game and. 765 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 2: The Florida defense is able to get the ball to 766 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 2: the end zone, maybe give good field position multiple times 767 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 2: this came to the Florida offense, could they make it competitive? 768 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 3: Yes, the giant wildcard in all that, I don't know where. 769 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,720 Speaker 2: Florida is mentally, I don't know where they are emotionally 770 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 2: right now. None of us are going to be able 771 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 2: to put our finger on that. None of us know. 772 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 2: Have half the kids mailed it in? Are they extremely upset? 773 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 2: Frustrated and get a real mad on come out in 774 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 2: this game. Want to try to prove something. They did 775 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 2: it last year, can they repeat it again this year? 776 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 2: If they do that, then sure they can play with 777 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 2: that team. I don't think there's any doubt. But Steve 778 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 2: Sarkisan is too good of a coordinator to keep letting 779 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 2: some of the headaches regularly take place. 780 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 3: With what they have been in this Texas offense. 781 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:46,839 Speaker 2: But that offensive line hadn't been what I thought they 782 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 2: were gonna be, and Florida has the front that could 783 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 2: take advantage of that. 784 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 1: So Texas, I mean, I think you'd agree with me. 785 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: There aren't many programs out there just with more raw 786 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: talent walking around the building than Texas, So probably, like 787 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 1: you just said, I think most people would agree. I 788 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: expect a little bit more from Texas so far. But 789 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: the calendar just turned to October, so still a little 790 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 1: ways to go, all right, and then you know, maybe 791 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 1: that climb starts Saturday. All right, think about that theme, 792 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 1: but just go around the rest of the league. I 793 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: don't even care, go around the rest of college football. 794 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: For all I care teams that have shown flaws shown 795 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: vulnerability so far this year. That you think have the 796 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 1: ingredients that they if they get it all in gear 797 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 1: could hit a different gear, could get to November. And 798 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: you find yourself saying, like we do about three or 799 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 1: four teams every year, do I don't want to play 800 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:36,359 Speaker 1: them right now? Or Buddy, if they if they get 801 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: in that thing, they could actually go win it. 802 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 3: Who is that there's a lot of them. 803 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 2: Let's just let's take Ohio State, Oregon, Miami out of 804 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,720 Speaker 2: this conversation, because we would all believe that they are there. 805 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 2: They have that there are known commodities within those teams, 806 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 2: and I think that might be hard right now in 807 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 2: college football. Maybe the biggest challenge, Josh, is what do 808 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 2: we know? Like give me knowns in college football? Like 809 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,680 Speaker 2: I know right now, Mad Hardy's the best running back 810 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,439 Speaker 2: in college football. I don't know if Ohio State has 811 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 2: the best offensive line in college football, but I think 812 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 2: they got the meanest and the nastiest, specifically with what 813 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 2: I saw last week against Washington. I mean it was 814 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 2: there was a head count at the end of that 815 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 2: game with what that offensive line and tight ends did 816 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 2: to the Washington defense. Don't know if they're just the 817 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 2: overall best, but right now They're the group i'd probably 818 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 2: least like to face of all offensive lines in college football. 819 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 3: Miami's O line not far behind them. 820 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,279 Speaker 2: They have trained killers on defense that want to try 821 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 2: to decapitate you on every game. 822 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 3: So we know those three. 823 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 2: The first one that I would give you is Old Miss, 824 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 2: and it would be the reason that they won the 825 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:45,439 Speaker 2: game against LSU. I thought there were two big things 826 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 2: that people missed in that game. One Old Miss won 827 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. I'm a dramatic pause there. We're 828 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,520 Speaker 2: gonna place some period next to that, because there are 829 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 2: no ifs, there are no ands, there are no butts. 830 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 2: We don't have to come in and put parentheses on 831 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 2: this with an asterisk and say, oh, but these other things. 832 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 2: This guy was out, but this happened in the game 833 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 2: or the situation. No Ole Miss won the line of scrimmage. 834 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 2: And I think maybe the thought process on that that 835 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 2: would get lost is you would immediately have to think 836 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 2: that they got ninety five Nebraska and they just got 837 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 2: mowed up and down the field. 838 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 3: Wrong. 839 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 2: The Old Miss offensive line doesn't have to do that 840 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 2: with the way that they operate offensively. But they got a. 841 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 3: Hat on a hat. 842 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 2: They strained, and they allowed Kwan Lacey, who is one 843 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:29,879 Speaker 2: of the most underrated players in college football right now 844 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 2: because he doesn't have eleven yards of carry, but he 845 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 2: is grinding out yards when that team desperately needs him to. 846 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:37,839 Speaker 2: And they showed me they can win a little bit 847 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 2: of a different style fight. That defensive line is coming along. 848 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 2: That group showed up last week. 849 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 3: Now against an LSU line that hadn't played very good 850 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 3: football this year. 851 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 2: So I think I think O Miss has the makings 852 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 2: of a team that could, like you said, turn it 853 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 2: on late and go Oklahoma. I don't think we can 854 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 2: really say right now because so much of that is 855 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 2: on John Mattire. If John Mattier is there, they are 856 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 2: absolute that team because he is enough to carry you 857 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 2: through multiple rounds of a postseason, because he's just that 858 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,839 Speaker 2: dynamic of a football player. Now, our defense will keep 859 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 2: him in any game, any game. It's the best D 860 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 2: line in the SEC, possibly the best D line in 861 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 2: college football. You put the front seven with that, they 862 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 2: can go out there and keep you in almost any 863 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 2: football game you're ever gonna play. But you need John 864 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 2: Matier to win a championship. That's just the reality of it. 865 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 2: And then there's the kind of the team. Alabama is 866 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,279 Speaker 2: absolutely in that mix right now. We haven't really seen 867 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 2: them turn the power switch on just yet, but it's 868 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 2: gonna be tough to match up with that group of receivers. 869 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 2: When Ty Simpson is making decisions like he did a 870 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 2: week ago, when you really go in and dissect it 871 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,319 Speaker 2: and you watch his eyes and how he took defenders 872 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 2: off of routes and took defenders out of space to 873 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 2: be able to complete balls in tight windows. 874 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:47,879 Speaker 3: He knew exactly what he was doing. 875 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: He was precise, He made great decisions, and he had 876 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,880 Speaker 2: an understanding of how to operate that offense at its peak. 877 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 3: And that's all I care about. 878 00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 2: Can a quarterback operate an offense like the other thing 879 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 2: with old Miss You look at at Chambliss and everybody 880 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 2: tells you, well, he's a playmaker, he can run, he's 881 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 2: beautiful balls down the field. 882 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 1: Josh. 883 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 2: The biggest thing that Trinidad Chamblas does for me, the 884 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 2: most important aspect he brings. 885 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 3: He avoids catastrophe. He has catastrophe plays that he is 886 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:17,959 Speaker 3: faced with six eight times a game, and he gets 887 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 3: out of them and he'll throw it away or he'll 888 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 3: elude and make a three yard gain out of it. 889 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 3: He's not taking a fifteen yard sack. He's not fadeaway 890 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 3: jumpers trying to throw the ball down the field. He's 891 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 3: not fumbling because he's trying to get away from three defenders. 892 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 3: That young man avoids catastrophe. And when you have an 893 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 3: offense that's going to score anyway, those are the only 894 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 3: kind of things that are going to allow a lot 895 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 3: of teams to even get back in games with you. 896 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 3: So I still would not put Georgia out of this mix. 897 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 3: I would not put Tennessee out of this mix. I 898 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 3: don't even think I would rule Flarida State out of 899 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,799 Speaker 3: being one of these teams. But it does feel like 900 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,919 Speaker 3: the list is dwindling of teams that could realistically turn 901 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:55,439 Speaker 3: it on. I think we'll learn a lot more about 902 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:56,760 Speaker 3: Texas Tech this week. 903 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 2: We want to see them against Houston, another undefeated team 904 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 2: before I really may I believe this or I know 905 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 2: this about that football team and what they might be 906 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 2: able to do second half. 907 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 3: Of the season. 908 00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 1: You have done radio in Birmingham, Alabama all week the 909 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 1: week after Bama beach Georgia, the week of Alabama Vanderbilt 910 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 1: I don't know how to describe this. I want you 911 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 1: to describe what your existence has been down there this week. 912 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 1: My existence has been. I've got a lot of Bama 913 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,839 Speaker 1: buddies who the week of a big game, you can 914 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 1: always tell the hair on the back of the next up, 915 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,440 Speaker 1: the guards up the shoulders are a little more tense normally. 916 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,880 Speaker 1: It's like when they'll play Tennessee or LSU or Auburn 917 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: or something like that, and the questions will always be, 918 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:38,359 Speaker 1: you know, we got to make sure to do this, 919 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,240 Speaker 1: make sure to do that. But the thought is always 920 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: are as long as the volume knob is turned up 921 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: to eight plus in this in this category, will win. 922 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 1: I've never heard him talk like that about Vanderbilt, is 923 00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,319 Speaker 1: my point. It's not that I've got Bama buddies who 924 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 1: expect to lose Saturday. None of them expect to lose. 925 00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:58,879 Speaker 1: I mean, this is Alabama, come on now. But what 926 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,800 Speaker 1: they are talking like is the way they would normally 927 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: talk if LSU was coming to town or they were 928 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: going down there, or they're playing like a vintage Auburn 929 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 1: team playing Georgia last week. And so that's my side 930 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 1: of it. Like Vandy owns third down last year, they 931 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,359 Speaker 1: own time of possession, they win the turnover battle. That's 932 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 1: all stuff Bama did last week on the road at Georgia. 933 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: So I look at it and say, can you own 934 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: those critical factors? If you do, you should win the 935 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,760 Speaker 1: game Saturday. It's really that simple and that hard. What 936 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 1: has your existence been like? Three hours? Three hours? Yeah, 937 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 1: three hours per morning with McElroy who's on the call, 938 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,399 Speaker 1: no less this weekend? What has that been like this week? 939 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,000 Speaker 3: Here's the thing. You're almost doing it too though. 940 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:44,279 Speaker 2: If this, if it's in, you're saying, how amazed you 941 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 2: are that we're having this conversation about Vanderbilt. 942 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 3: That's the problem. 943 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:52,280 Speaker 2: The discussion point should be we're talking about a good 944 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 2: football team, not we're talking about Vanderbilt. And I understand 945 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 2: that there are certain people that will tell you that 946 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 2: history never fails us in college football, and it will 947 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,240 Speaker 2: always go on as it should and will never hit. 948 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 3: Lulls or hurdles or obstacles. 949 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 2: But this is one of those peaks in Vanderbilt history 950 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,839 Speaker 2: that when we look at the seismograph and it's sitting. 951 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 3: There just buzzing on the bottom forever and ever. 952 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 2: And you get the James Franklin peak, Well, this is 953 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 2: going to be taller than that one and higher than 954 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 2: that one. But the difference is this team does have 955 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 2: real sustainability and the program may have more sustainability because 956 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 2: of how it's being built and how Clark and the 957 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 2: people around him have built it. First off, Tim Beck 958 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:33,440 Speaker 2: gets no credit and deserves a ton of it. The 959 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 2: Vanner built offensive coordinators. 960 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 3: Who that is? 961 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,600 Speaker 2: For the millions of people tuned in that have no 962 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,640 Speaker 2: idea who that guy was and they thought maybe I 963 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,399 Speaker 2: was referencing an old relief pitcher for the Giants back 964 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 2: in the day or the Cubs, it's not Rod Beck. 965 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 2: It's Tim Beck. And the guy's damn good. He knows 966 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 2: exactly what to do, how to manipulate things and the 967 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,239 Speaker 2: amount of reads and options that are involved in this 968 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 2: offense now with more visual deception because they have real 969 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,160 Speaker 2: speed on the perimeter and an offensive line and that 970 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,760 Speaker 2: physically can at least match up better than any Vanderbilt 971 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 2: offensive line I've ever seen. That makes them an absolute 972 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 2: handful Because going back to what we talked earlier, Josh 973 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 2: about operating your offense, Diego Pavia does that as well 974 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 2: as any quarterback in college football. Now, that doesn't make 975 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 2: him Jaden Daniels, It doesn't make him Caleb Williams. It's 976 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 2: not what I'm trying to say. But when you put 977 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 2: him in that with his experience, his knowledge and how he. 978 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 3: Operates a little bit, he puts it. 979 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:29,719 Speaker 2: To a level that not a lot of the order 980 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,359 Speaker 2: quarterbacks can do with what they are given the card 981 00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 2: that they're given to drive. So it is a handful 982 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 2: to defend without Kway. Russaw thinks it makes it more 983 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,359 Speaker 2: complicated for Alabama because they've become less experienced, left out 984 00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 2: athletic on the edges where they're going to attack on 985 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 2: a regular basis, and there are a defense that plays 986 00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 2: really sound. They trust each other, they know where to be, 987 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,359 Speaker 2: They leverage the sideline, they understand how to tackle, They 988 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,759 Speaker 2: tackle in pairs, they don't always get out there in 989 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 2: space and try to tackle. 990 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 3: On their own. 991 00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,440 Speaker 2: They understand the finer parts of playing defense as a group, 992 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 2: and Alabama is more talented. Alabama has more speed, Alabama 993 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,640 Speaker 2: can be more physical, They can be more physically imposing 994 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 2: based on the humans that they have out there. But 995 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 2: that doesn't always make you a great football team, and 996 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 2: it doesn't always win games. 997 00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 3: So I think the only ifs here, if we're gonna talk. 998 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 2: About it, is one is Alabama operating their offense to 999 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:23,880 Speaker 2: the level that they were last week and have the 1000 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 2: last two three weeks. And if ty Simpson's doing that, 1001 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 2: I don't really think we need to talk about a 1002 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 2: lot of the other things. They're probably gonna win the 1003 00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,360 Speaker 2: game because at that point, talent takes over when the 1004 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:36,160 Speaker 2: operation of it is that good two Diego Pavea is 1005 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 2: gonna give you three to six, three to five. O 1006 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 2: expletive plays a game? Which direction do they go? Because 1007 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 2: when you're falling down getting tackled and you pitch it 1008 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 2: behind your head, if your running back catches at and. 1009 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 3: Goes forty yards, well that's one your way. If you 1010 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 3: do that little fade away. 1011 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 2: Backfoot throw into the end zone because you got pressure 1012 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 2: breathing down your neck and you don't know what else 1013 00:51:56,040 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 2: to do, and your receiver comes away with that, that's 1014 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 2: one for you. When those two into fumbles for touchdowns 1015 00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 2: or interceptions after a great drive, that's a massive win 1016 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 2: for Alabama. So is Alabama operating where they have been 1017 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 2: one two, the O expletive diego pavia plays, Which direction? 1018 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 3: To those go that's what decides this game. In my opinion, how. 1019 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,120 Speaker 1: Do you gauge the energy coming out of LSU right now? 1020 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,839 Speaker 1: We saw what happened in the game against Ole Miss 1021 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,000 Speaker 1: last week. That result did not surprise me. I know 1022 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,920 Speaker 1: you well enough to know that result didn't surprise you 1023 00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 1: a whole lot either. So now you know you're listening 1024 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,520 Speaker 1: to Brian Kelly talk about oh everyone's angry, everyone's angry here. 1025 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:37,800 Speaker 1: You know a lot of times you kind of got 1026 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 1: what you got. And the real skill in this sport 1027 00:52:40,280 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: is looking in the mirror realizing, hey, I'm LSU man, 1028 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 1: like about ninety five percent of the country would love 1029 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 1: to have my problems. Eventually, we got what we got 1030 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 1: in the room. We gotta coach them up. We got 1031 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: we gotta squeeze every drop out of the sponge that 1032 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 1: we possibly can, and hopefully it's good enough to win. 1033 00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 1: I just wonder, number one, if they're capable of doing that, 1034 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,800 Speaker 1: and then number two if they're not, and if some losses, 1035 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 1: you know, start to stack up. I'm talking like maybe 1036 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 1: an eight and four season, and that's a long way 1037 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 1: down the road, but I just wonder, like what the 1038 00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 1: conversation would be then, But we can talk about that 1039 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: down the road. As far as the here and now 1040 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:19,120 Speaker 1: can't run the ball nuss Meyer's hurt. I don't really 1041 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 1: know what they believe they have behind him. I know 1042 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:23,399 Speaker 1: what the name on the depth chart is. I don't 1043 00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:25,840 Speaker 1: know that they believe they're comfortable going to him. I 1044 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,919 Speaker 1: just wonder, like, because I have no feel for what's 1045 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: going to happen the rest of the way with them. 1046 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 1: I don't think they're done losing games, and so I 1047 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,360 Speaker 1: just kind of wanted to get your take, wanted to 1048 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:36,839 Speaker 1: get your read on LSU right now. 1049 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, the interesting part is when you look at some 1050 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 2: of the things that Old miss did to complicate the game. 1051 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,760 Speaker 2: When LSU was on defense, you still got Lenora Sellers, 1052 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 2: Diego Pavia. I mean, you got Alabama, Texas A and 1053 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 2: m Oklahoma at the end of the year when John 1054 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 2: Matier most likely could be back. 1055 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 3: I don't like seeing that in front of me. 1056 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 2: And I will say this, Josh, and I don't think 1057 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:01,839 Speaker 2: I'm not pointing finger at you here, but we came 1058 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,240 Speaker 2: out of last weekend in the SEC with a huge 1059 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:08,280 Speaker 2: misconception because if I looked at Twitter and I listened 1060 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 2: to a few podcasts and how people talked about games. 1061 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 2: Alabama won by fifty two and Ole missed one by 1062 00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 2: thirty nine, and Tennessee lost by eleven, and it's like 1063 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 2: that wasn't the way that these games really went those game. 1064 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:26,760 Speaker 2: I mean, you could say the same thing about Auburn, 1065 00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:29,399 Speaker 2: but against sexast A and m that one actually did 1066 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 2: look and appear to be as though the score was 1067 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 2: about twenty points different than it was. So I don't 1068 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:36,399 Speaker 2: even know if I'd categorize that, even though Auburn did 1069 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,080 Speaker 2: have the football with the chance to take the lead late, 1070 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 2: just like LSU did, just like Georgia did. So I 1071 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,680 Speaker 2: don't know if that means that the teams that want 1072 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 2: aren't that good or the teams that lost aren't that bad. 1073 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 2: But that's what I'm trying to sell to my group. 1074 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,799 Speaker 2: If I'm Brian Kelly. Here are the mistakes that we 1075 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 2: made that were critical. Here's how close we were in 1076 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 2: the end. However, what you just stated, it's one of 1077 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 2: the things that Nick Saban did better than anybody self scout. 1078 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 2: He would ask people around the facility. He had a 1079 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 2: couple people that he leaned on and said, tell me 1080 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 2: what's wrong with me, tell me what's wrong with us? 1081 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:10,839 Speaker 2: I tell mean, he always went out there and said, okay, good, 1082 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 2: we're gonna sken that and we're gonna come out here 1083 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 2: and do it completely different. No, but he wanted to 1084 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 2: at least have his eyes open to things that he 1085 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 2: possibly did not see. There are a few of those 1086 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:25,240 Speaker 2: for LSU. I'll give them credit. Seven plays against Old Miss. 1087 00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 2: They evened up the run formation, which means you're either 1088 00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 2: shotgun two back or your pistol with the back right 1089 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 2: behind your quarterback, and you allow the perception of multiple 1090 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 2: runs being able to go one way or the other. 1091 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:39,560 Speaker 2: The shotgun offset to one side or the other gives 1092 00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:42,919 Speaker 2: the defenses too many advantages. The offensive line has flat 1093 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 2: out not played good football. Your quarterback's dinged up, obviously, 1094 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:49,280 Speaker 2: but even he is still taking a few too many chances. 1095 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 2: The ball starting into traffic last week were unacceptable on 1096 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,240 Speaker 2: a very regular basis. 1097 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 3: So those are things that can get cleaned up now. 1098 00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 2: Some of those include a certain level of physicality and 1099 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 2: talent and understanding and your technique and fundamentals and belief 1100 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:03,279 Speaker 2: they're gonna change all that. 1101 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,640 Speaker 3: I don't know, like you reference not being able to 1102 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:06,360 Speaker 3: run the football. 1103 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 2: Do we know that because I think only thirty three 1104 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 2: times this year, if my statitician in Charlotte Monday afternoon 1105 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 2: was correct, they've run the ball on back to back 1106 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:17,799 Speaker 2: downs this year. 1107 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:21,360 Speaker 3: That's not giving you a chance to live in that neighborhood. 1108 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:21,799 Speaker 1: You know. 1109 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 2: That's being the one hundred thousand dollars millionaire in Dallas 1110 00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 2: or whatever it is driving the Ferrari with your new sponsor. 1111 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 3: Can go deal with you know, the two three. 1112 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 2: Hundred thousand dollars debt that they have trying to pretend 1113 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,120 Speaker 2: that you're something else that you're not. So I think 1114 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 2: LSU needs to know who they are first and foremost. 1115 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 2: I know what they want to be and what they 1116 00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 2: think they are, and that is superstar quarterback with flashy 1117 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 2: weapons that can pitch it all over the field. There's 1118 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:45,759 Speaker 2: nothing you can do about it. And our defense is 1119 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,400 Speaker 2: going to punch you in the stomach. And some teams 1120 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 2: can withstand a punch in the stomach. Old miss did 1121 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 2: Old mis proved that you don't have to go score 1122 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,719 Speaker 2: forty to beat that football team. So there should be 1123 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 2: a lot of looking in the mirror, and there should 1124 00:56:57,680 --> 00:56:59,319 Speaker 2: be a lot of looking in there and saying we 1125 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,799 Speaker 2: can't be that anymore, or we thought we were that 1126 00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,040 Speaker 2: and we're definitely not. So we have to find other 1127 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 2: things that we can offset what we think we're good 1128 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 2: with and maybe try to give us some true balance 1129 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:08,520 Speaker 2: down the road. 1130 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 3: I still think they have one of. 1131 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 2: The best defenses in the league, one of the best 1132 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:12,800 Speaker 2: defenses in college football. 1133 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:14,840 Speaker 3: You can lean on that in a lot of ways. 1134 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why I'm not tapping out on them. I 1135 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 1: refuse to tap out on Blake Baker. That's an American hero. 1136 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: I just have a lot of questions about the other side. 1137 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 1: All right, All this stuff happens on Cube Show all week. 1138 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 1: Unbeknownst to some of you, some of you have discovered, 1139 00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 1: others need to discover.
