<v Speaker 2>fine gentleman over there, the one, the only, always, the

<v Speaker 2>incomparable Dan Rubinstein. You will hear his voice momentarily. This

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:35.360
<v Speaker 2>is an excerpt from College Football Thursdays. It's the show

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:38.960
<v Speaker 2>we do live on Spotify every Thursday evening at five

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:43.760
<v Speaker 2>pm East two pm West. On today's excerpt, you're going

0:00:43.800 --> 0:00:47.160
<v Speaker 2>to hear Tye versus the World. It is a game

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.479
<v Speaker 2>we like to play where I give five picks against

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:52.760
<v Speaker 2>the spread. We invite five others from the audience up

0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:55.959
<v Speaker 2>onto the virtual stage to give five picks that represent

0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:58.280
<v Speaker 2>the world. At the end of the week we add

0:00:58.360 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 2>up the results. Right now, winning percentage is exactly sixty percent.

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:04.880
<v Speaker 2>We're trying to get that as high as possible. So

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:08.400
<v Speaker 2>fingers crossed that week seven treats me well, hope you'll

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 2>stop by next Thursday, five pebs, two pm West Live

0:01:12.080 --> 0:01:15.600
<v Speaker 2>on Spotify. Here's Tie versus the World. Enjoy your week

0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:23.559
<v Speaker 2>seven Tie versus the World, Steve Time versus the World.

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:26.400
<v Speaker 2>All right, Dan, are you ready? Are you ready? Are

0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 2>you ready?

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Of course? I am all right.

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, I kind of gave away the game a little

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 2>bit here with the first two. But Penn State plus

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:38.479
<v Speaker 2>seven at Michigan, Oklahoma minus nine at home against Kansas

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 2>first two picks. Here's my thing with Penn State. I

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:47.039
<v Speaker 2>am horribly biased. Of course, I am horribly biased. This

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 2>is one of those games. On some level, I am

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 2>trying to speak this result into existence. Of any of

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 2>the five games that I'm going to give you here,

0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 2>that is the one that you should bet the least

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:01.880
<v Speaker 2>amount of your actual hard earned American kishon Okay, because

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 2>it is mostly a heart overhead type of scenario. I

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:07.640
<v Speaker 2>believe Penn State is good enough to win that game.

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.760
<v Speaker 2>I believe eventually, at some point there will be a

0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:13.840
<v Speaker 2>team that forces JJ McCarthy into a scenario that he

0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:16.760
<v Speaker 2>has yet to face, and that is the running game

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 2>around him is not nearly as effective and he has

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.160
<v Speaker 2>to win it on his own right. I don't know.

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 2>I want to believe is a Penn State grad is

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 2>a Penn State fan that Penn State is good enough

0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 2>to be that team. I want to believe that. I

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 2>can't say that with confidence, but I do know big

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.480
<v Speaker 2>road spot. Penn State's been playing pretty well. This is

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:37.799
<v Speaker 2>a big game for them. They will be up for it.

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:40.640
<v Speaker 2>I believe they will keep this one close enough to

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 2>at least cover that seven point spread. So my first

0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:45.360
<v Speaker 2>pick here is Penn State plus to seven.

0:02:46.680 --> 0:02:47.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, fair enough.

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:52.079
<v Speaker 2>My next pick is Oklahoma minus nine. I will try

0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 2>to find a way to minus nine. I will try

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:56.000
<v Speaker 2>to find a way to sugarcoat this as best I can,

0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 2>because I love the Kansas story. Kansas is going to

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:02.080
<v Speaker 2>be starting Jason Bean. The last I saw Jalen Daniels,

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:07.440
<v Speaker 2>he of injury last week. To you know, varying degrees

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 2>with severity depending who you believe on Twitter, HM, Jalen

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.760
<v Speaker 2>Daniels seems unlikely to play, which means we get Jason

0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:16.440
<v Speaker 2>being Jason Bean was good last week. I am not

0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 2>a Kansas believer. I am a believer in the Kansas story.

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.520
<v Speaker 2>I want to root on the Jayhawks. I am not

0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 2>a Kansas believer. I believe Oklahoma State is tremendously undervalued

0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:31.959
<v Speaker 2>in this matchup for a couple reasons. First off, obviously,

0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:35.080
<v Speaker 2>just look at the optics of losing forty nine to

0:03:35.160 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 2>nil against your biggest rival. That doesn't look good. People

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 2>don't feel good about you if you lose by a

0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 2>healthy margin such as that. If you look embarrassingly poor

0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:46.839
<v Speaker 2>against your hated rival, no no one wants to bet

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 2>on you. That's just the way it is. The defense

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.320
<v Speaker 2>has looked really bad in Kansas has a good offense.

0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 2>I understand why people would want to go Kansas, but

0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:57.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't believe Oklahoma is quite as bad as we

0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:59.840
<v Speaker 2>saw last week. I also think it bears mentioning they

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 2>without Dylan Gabriel for two games now, and you get

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.960
<v Speaker 2>him back this week at home against Kansas. I think

0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 2>they've got a point to prove and they're going to

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.560
<v Speaker 2>try and score as many points as humanly possible. This

0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 2>is not a good Kansas defense. All it's going to

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 2>take for Oklahoma is one or two additional stops in

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 2>order to get enough cover here to win this one

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 2>going away. So I'm on the Sooners minus snide at home.

0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.880
<v Speaker 1>Counterpoint, I think they tried last week and the week

0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:29.480
<v Speaker 1>before that, and the week with Dylan Gabriel to score

0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:34.160
<v Speaker 1>as many points as humanly possible and didn't. I couldn't.

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:35.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:38.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying against me at your own perils.

0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:39.600
<v Speaker 1>So what are they doing? Are they running the hell

0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:41.440
<v Speaker 1>out of the ball? You think Dylan Gabriel is going

0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:43.440
<v Speaker 1>to throw for a bajillion yards? Do you think they're

0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 1>just going to both both just huddle up and be like, guys,

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:49.039
<v Speaker 1>let's get it together, and they do.

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yes, all of the above, All right. Pick number

0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 2>three Arkansas now a pick'em over BYU kJ Jefferson's back.

0:05:00.520 --> 0:05:05.080
<v Speaker 2>Arkansas needs this one badly. They need this one badly.

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:07.600
<v Speaker 2>I believe they will. They will be able to run

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:11.640
<v Speaker 2>the ball with Raheem Sanders and with kJ Jefferson, and that,

0:05:12.080 --> 0:05:14.320
<v Speaker 2>from what I've seen on the BYU front, is a

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 2>pretty successful formula to win. I like the fact that

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.000
<v Speaker 2>it's a pick them, although I was going to take

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 2>Arkansas even they were when they were favored by a

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:24.599
<v Speaker 2>point and a half. So for me, yeah, for me,

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.080
<v Speaker 2>this one is sort of a no brainer. I've got

0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 2>some my own money on this one. I really like

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:29.880
<v Speaker 2>the hogs.

0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Here disrespecting mountains again again.

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:35.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, I like mountains, though worries.

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 1>No, you don't, No, you don't. You're taking the sea

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 1>level team. I have no idea where Fayettella is at

0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.440
<v Speaker 1>sea level, but you are taking this team definitely closer

0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>to sea level in Arkansas than BYU at altitude. They

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:50.040
<v Speaker 1>know this did come down. You're right. I understand why.

0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:52.160
<v Speaker 2>They need this win. They need this win more than

0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.240
<v Speaker 2>any team on this list. Arkansas, they need this win.

0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina minus seven at Duke. I'm also not a

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Duke believer. I'm not a Duke believer. I believe Duke's better.

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:07.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't believe they're good enough to hang to score

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.680
<v Speaker 2>with North Carolina. I know it's a rivalry, I don't care.

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.039
<v Speaker 2>I think North Carolina is the better offense, the better team,

0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 2>and I think by the time all is said and done,

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.680
<v Speaker 2>we will probably be talking about North Carolina the way

0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:22.120
<v Speaker 2>we talk about Kansas now, the way everybody thinks Kansas

0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 2>and their offense is legit.

0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:24.159
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:27.039
<v Speaker 2>I think North Carolina will be the rich man's version

0:06:27.120 --> 0:06:30.440
<v Speaker 2>of that come December, when, of course we know all

0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:33.840
<v Speaker 2>things college football. North Carolina minus seven on the road

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 2>at Duke. Now, North Carolina in a letdown spot. I

0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:41.359
<v Speaker 2>don't believe they've fully cured their defensive woes because Tyler

0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 2>Van Dyke threw for like five hundred yards against them

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:48.200
<v Speaker 2>last week. So if there were ever a team where

0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Sunday morning, you're gonna go, oh right, that thing that

0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 2>we saw weekend and week out came back, it might

0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 2>be North Carolina's defense leading the way to a duke

0:06:57.680 --> 0:06:59.239
<v Speaker 2>win in a rivalry spot at home.

0:06:59.680 --> 0:06:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Right.

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Maybe, Okay, we'll see Clayton by the way in the Chad,

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:07.479
<v Speaker 2>thank you Clayton for half of my back here, says

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.680
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina by thirty final pick here, and then we're

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:14.160
<v Speaker 2>turning it over to the world. Yes, Wisconsin minus seven

0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:15.480
<v Speaker 2>and a half at Michigan State.

0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh ye consin minus seven and a half.

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I was on Wisconsin last week minus ten against Northwestern.

0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 2>By the way, I'm picking all like road teams again

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 2>with the exception of Oklahoma, which I hate doing, but

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.000
<v Speaker 2>it keeps working out this way and I'm winning, so

0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:34.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to keep doing what works. I just I'll

0:07:34.120 --> 0:07:36.520
<v Speaker 2>come back to what I said earlier in the show.

0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.240
<v Speaker 2>I think these teams are going in opposite directions, and

0:07:40.760 --> 0:07:44.640
<v Speaker 2>I know it hasn't all been gravy for Wisconsin, right Obviously,

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 2>they fired Paul Christ of course, last week was a

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.400
<v Speaker 2>net crack game for him. Last week was the kind

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:52.920
<v Speaker 2>of game that they needed to have success through the

0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 2>air to put up a bunch of points to build

0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:59.280
<v Speaker 2>some momentum for the back half of the season. That

0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>is exactly what they needed Michigan State. I have no

0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 2>understanding for where that team is headed right now, because

0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 2>it seems a lot of what we thought might go

0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.320
<v Speaker 2>well in the preseason has collapsed. The defense hasn't gotten better,

0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:16.120
<v Speaker 2>they haven't gotten lyft from any of the transfers that

0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>they brought over, at least not enough of a lift

0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:24.640
<v Speaker 2>to get this team to some higher level of efficiency.

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 2>I know that there are young guys playing all across

0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:30.480
<v Speaker 2>the board here along both lines and whatnot. I get

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:35.319
<v Speaker 2>all that, but I just I don't think that the

0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 2>feel good story of building under Meltucker for twenty twenty

0:08:39.360 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 2>three is enough to sideline a Wisconsin team that I

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:46.319
<v Speaker 2>still believe has a lot to play for. So maybe

0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:48.800
<v Speaker 2>not so much in terms of like a Big Ten championship,

0:08:48.800 --> 0:08:52.360
<v Speaker 2>but definitely when it comes to trying to build for

0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:54.000
<v Speaker 2>who you think your new coach is going to be

0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:55.640
<v Speaker 2>who everybody thinks the new coach is going to be

0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.800
<v Speaker 2>in Jim Leonard, I really like Wisconsin going away here.

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:02.439
<v Speaker 1>Sounds to me like you're saying double netcrack right to

0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that's of Northwestern and Michigan State back to back is

0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:08.280
<v Speaker 1>a nice way to sort of get into the second

0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 1>half of the season, which, by the way, when you

0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:13.080
<v Speaker 1>look at Wisconsin's schedule, this is what we're looking at

0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.760
<v Speaker 1>back half for Jim Leonard in his interim status with

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:18.959
<v Speaker 1>ie out presume read it out. So it's at Michigan

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:23.680
<v Speaker 1>State winnable. Purdue at home I think difficult, but ultimately

0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.040
<v Speaker 1>like that could be a toss up because Purdue sort

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:27.640
<v Speaker 1>of is all over the place in terms of how

0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:30.040
<v Speaker 1>they finish games as we saw last week and how

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.959
<v Speaker 1>we saw the Syracuse game end Maryland, who I think

0:09:33.040 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 1>is quality, But I think that's winnable if Wisconsin is

0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 1>able to get back on track at Iowa. I mean

0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:43.120
<v Speaker 1>another toss up like first to fourteen wins that game,

0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:46.880
<v Speaker 1>Nebraska atop the Big Ten West, But I'm not a

0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:48.719
<v Speaker 1>big believer when a team that needs to come back

0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:52.480
<v Speaker 1>against Rutgers and Minnesota. Another like weird week to week

0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:55.080
<v Speaker 1>toss up as soon as they start playing weird excuse me,

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:58.640
<v Speaker 1>as soon as they start playing real teams. So if

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Wisconsin they're not going to get their together, they're not

0:10:00.679 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 1>going to look like the Wisconsin of old. But if

0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 1>they're merely competitive and merely not making mistakes, and even

0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:08.560
<v Speaker 1>if they're a pickleball team in that they have to

0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:10.600
<v Speaker 1>sort of dink and doink down the field and aren't

0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:16.200
<v Speaker 1>generating explosive plays anymore often, these are all relatively winnable games.

0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:19.839
<v Speaker 1>Now I come into this with the baggage of like, oh,

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.600
<v Speaker 1>of course Wisconsin has more All American linebackers, and of

0:10:22.640 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>course Wisconsin has an efficient quarterback who's getting it to

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 1>an All American caliber tight end. That's not the situation

0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:31.600
<v Speaker 1>in Wisconsin right now. This is a new look Wisconsin team,

0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:35.320
<v Speaker 1>not necessarily in a good way. But if they're merely

0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>a B minus Big Ten team, they can win a

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>lot of these late just staying close, just hanging around,

0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:44.720
<v Speaker 1>drafting behind the opportunity truck. I don't think they will

0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:46.959
<v Speaker 1>win a majority of these games. I think it's probably

0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.520
<v Speaker 1>going to be a split, Like they'll beat Nebraska and

0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:52.079
<v Speaker 1>Iowa and Maryland but lose to Purdue in Minnesota or

0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 1>something like that. But I think there's potential for them

0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:57.439
<v Speaker 1>to at least get their act together and be a

0:10:57.480 --> 0:10:59.320
<v Speaker 1>little bit more creative in the way that they move

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the ball.

0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Five picks this week, again, just to rehash, we've got

0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.439
<v Speaker 2>Penn State plus seven, Oklahoma minus nine, the Arkansas pick'em,

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina minus seven, and the rivalry against Duke and

0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:14.000
<v Speaker 2>Wisconsin minus seven and a half. On the road in

0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.800
<v Speaker 2>East Lansing last week, I went three to one and one.

0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:22.520
<v Speaker 2>My overall record is seventeen eleven and two, which puts

0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:25.280
<v Speaker 2>me right at sixty percent winning percentage.

0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.160
<v Speaker 1>You hear that, ladies,
