1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal hull.

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,079
Speaker 2: That for me, I'm a man, I'm for it.

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 3: I've heard so many players say, well, I want to

4
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 3: be happy. You want to be happy for a day?

5
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 3: Edith Steak is that woo woom?

6
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: And then and tie Dan Rubinstein back in the home

7
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: studio after a long weekend away and beautiful and arbor Michigan,

8
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: my friend watching your Oregon Ducks take it to the

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: Michigan Wolverines. We had a weird setup in the hotel

10
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: room to pull off something of a recap episode on

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: Saturday night. But alas, as you can see from the

12
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: background for those of you watching the video back where

13
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: it all started, my friend, how goes it?

14
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 3: It's it's very good time. Life is very good. Not

15
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 3: my first time, probably won't be my last time hauling

16
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 3: production lights into a hotel room and getting a few

17
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 3: looks in the lobby're like, what's about to go down

18
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 3: in a room two three one tonight? As I'm looking around, like.

19
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: Everything's cool, guys, this is just college football and we're

20
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: not talking ring lights. We're talking the big light with

21
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: the umbrella, like full on production. I said, we use

22
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: for what we do. Yeah, and a few kind of

23
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 1: stray glances, like what's what's going on up in that room? Yeah?

24
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 3: Like like, are we going to be interviewing somebody on

25
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 3: camera saying you ever done something like this before?

26
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 2: No?

27
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 3: No, huh, I mean you're a natural. That's that's the

28
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 3: vibe that I picked up on from people's eyeballs looking

29
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 3: at me hauling a light stand and a giant light

30
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 3: dome in the Hilton Garden, Detroit, Marriott. Yeah, that's the

31
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 3: life we lead.

32
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show, one and all. Thank you

33
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: for your patients this past weekend as we did our

34
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: best to put a show out there. This show now

35
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: is going to be a continuation of what we did

36
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: on Saturday. So yeah, because we were at the Oregon

37
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: Michigan game, we did not have a chance to do

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: our normal bit of football consumption. This gave us an

39
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: opportunity to go back and rewatch games, formulate some thoughts.

40
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: We did not talk a whole lot about what transpired

41
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: in the nightcap because we recorded the show earlier. This

42
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: episode is going to give us a chance to go

43
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: through some of those games and also take a stroll

44
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: back down memory lane talk through what happened at other

45
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 1: points throughout the day in Week ten.

46
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: Yes, I have a lot of thoughts, a lot of opinions.

47
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 3: We have rankings, reverbs. It's a jam pack show. Yes,

48
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 3: it is a jam pack show. Hit follow, hit subscribe.

49
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: You don't want to miss any of our episodes moving forward,

50
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,839
Speaker 1: because as we will discuss on today's show, as I'm

51
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: pretty sure I am going to discuss at nauseum on

52
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: the Thursday preview show, there is a lot that's going

53
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 1: to go down in November. Oh my god, Yes, a

54
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: lot is going to go down in November with respect

55
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: to conference standings. So if you are ever so inclined, folks,

56
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 1: for the next forty five minutes, sixty minutes, what whatever

57
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: time you choose to spend with us to distract yourself

58
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: from the healthscape of American politics which is going on today.

59
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 1: As we released this episode, thank you for joining us

60
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: here in the Rebowler hood.

61
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: Dan thrilled your hair.

62
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: So look. Week ten featured seven teams of the AP

63
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: Top twenty five going down. Yes, we had Penn State,

64
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: we had Texas A and M. We had Iowa State, Clemson,

65
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: Kansas State, Pitt and Illinois. Of those teams, Texas A

66
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: and M Clemson and pitt All lost at night while

67
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: we were recording. I would also add Iowa State lost

68
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: while we were in the car, Kansas State lost while

69
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: we were in the car. Illinois happened a little bit

70
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: earlier in the day. That was one that we had

71
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: telegraphed as part of my locks yep on our previous

72
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: preview episode. But definitely an active week with respect to rankings,

73
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 1: which leads me to where we are right now with

74
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: Harvard Baller top twelve. Got a new one that is

75
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: out there, number twelve, Boise State crack in the top twelve,

76
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: number eleven, SMU welcome to the dance, my friends, number ten,

77
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: notere Dame now firmly in our top twelve. They hadn't

78
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: been there before. Peeking back in Tennessee at nine, BYU

79
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: at eight. Penn State drops all the way down to

80
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 1: number seven, but still very much in the thick of

81
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: things here. Indiana all the way up to number six.

82
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: Dan Rubinstein, wooh, finally getting a little bit of love

83
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: for the Hoosiers. Top five is Texas at five, Miami

84
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: at four, Georgia at three, Ohio State at two, Oregon,

85
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: Your Oregon Ducks a comfortable first place in this poll.

86
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Also add before I get your comments, Alabama is thirteen, Ole,

87
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: Missus fourteen, Army fifteen, Texas A, and m sixteen in

88
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: LSU at seventeen. Any reactions, any thoughts to that top twelve?

89
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 3: Uh? Yeah, I mean the conversation around number three is fascinating,

90
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 3: though it's hard for me to put Texas there, obviously

91
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 3: losing to Georgia the way that they did, hard for

92
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 3: me to put Miami there in terms of strength of

93
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 3: performance that you know, there's no good answer for number

94
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 3: three in this moment. Georgia won an absolute clunker given

95
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 3: Carson Beck's interception issues against Florida, and it's difficult to

96
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 3: say Indiana, even with an undefeated record in a power

97
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 3: conference like a slam dunket number three, given who they've played.

98
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 3: Now you can say they've performed like a number three

99
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: team should with a weirdly weak schedule. And I understand

100
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: why they scheduled down in the non conference, because Indiana

101
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 3: has been long a program scheduling to get to a ballgame,

102
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 3: and so they weren't even thinking about like style, points

103
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 3: and record and any of that kind of stuff, because

104
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 3: why would you given the history of Indiana football. So

105
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 3: that's sort of defensible that they're sort of not in

106
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 3: that number three conversation. And I don't think, what are

107
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 3: they in the eight.

108
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: People yet there's somewhere in that vicinity. Yes, six, seven, eight, Yeah,

109
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: they've now cracked the top ten, which good for them.

110
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: They should be there given the way they've played. Definitely,

111
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: and to your point, this schedule definitely predates Kurt Signetti

112
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: and all this renewed optimism around the program. Like you said,

113
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: they're trying to get too a bowl game that was

114
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 1: kind of seen as the stepping stone, but never in

115
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,239
Speaker 1: their wildest dreams did we did they did we expect

116
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,239
Speaker 1: that they'd be in the thick of this thing come

117
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: mid November.

118
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 3: In terms of if we are once again just looking

119
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 3: at this poll, is it a poll that combines who

120
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 3: we think are the twelve best teams or the twelve

121
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 3: best resumes or everything you know that goes into a ranking,

122
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 3: like I happen to think Ole Miss is probably one

123
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 3: of the best dozen teams in the country right now.

124
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: Even with the injuries. Trey Harris didn't play against Arkansas,

125
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 3: you know, a little bit thin at running back at

126
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 3: the moment. Set in records. The defense I think might

127
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 3: be leading the nation in sacks. They're playing at their best,

128
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 3: as complete a football game as most, if not all,

129
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 3: of the sport, and so that's an O mission And

130
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 3: I get it because of the loss to Kentucky. Totally

131
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 3: defensible why you would leave them out. But if we're

132
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 3: just having that conversation about who are the twelve best

133
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 3: teams in the country, I think you're doing a little

134
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 3: bit of an injustice leaving will miss out.

135
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: We opened up this poll to all of our Patreon members,

136
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: so those who are certified in Premium for Ballers, also

137
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: those who join on the free tier, just to get

138
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: more opinions because things are starting to heat up now,

139
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: I think again with respect to how these teams sack up.

140
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: We're going to see the first round of playoff rankings

141
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: on Tuesday evening for those who care to pay attention.

142
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 3: We a little distraction. Yeah yeah, nice distraction.

143
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: We'll see how it compares to this for ball Oer

144
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: Top twelve poll. Again, this is voted on by our

145
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: community and everybody kind of has their own measure for it.

146
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 1: We have some folks that want to put Vandy in

147
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: the top twelve. We have others that take it. You know,

148
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: I think from your standpoint of well, I don't care

149
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: what the records are. I'm just looking at this in

150
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: terms of who I think the best teams are, right,

151
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: I've tried to take something of a hybrid approach, though

152
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: not including Vandy, I would add, and I find it

153
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: interesting that we've now got some new teams that are

154
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: that are peeking their way into this thing. It took

155
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: a while for people to get comfortable again with putting

156
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: Notre Dame in their top twelve. That' SMU finally getting

157
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: something of a boost after playing really good football, progressively

158
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: better football after that loss earlier in the year, to BYU,

159
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: even BYU. I feel like our voters have struggled with

160
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: where do we put BYU. If you take the poll

161
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: points the way I calculate them, you can use that

162
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: to figure out where the decision points are. Right now,

163
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 1: Oregon is a clear number one, Yes, Ohio State and

164
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: Georgia damn near tied for that second spot. All right, So,

165
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: even though Georgia did have a bit of a clunker

166
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: this past weekend against Florida, it stands to reason that

167
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: at least our for baller hood still feels pretty confident

168
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: in Georgia. Miami a very comfortable fourth in front of Texas.

169
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 1: Texas are very comfortable fifth in front of Indiana. Once

170
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: you get to six, this is when things start to

171
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: get interesting. There's still a nice gap between Indiana and

172
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: Penn State, but after you get to seven, seven, eight, nine,

173
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: like the whole way down, it's very very tight. How

174
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: the committee kind of susses all this out would be

175
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: really interesting to see. I don't know what to expect there.

176
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: I don't take the first round of polling that seriously,

177
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 1: of course, but it will be interesting just to get

178
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: kind of like a check as for how the Committe

179
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:33,719
Speaker 1: feels about what it's seen so far.

180
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 3: I'm not so sure I understand why Penn State is

181
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 3: where they are on this list. You play in a

182
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: big game, a top ten matchup at home and score

183
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 3: how many offensive touchdowns tie once exactly zero, exactly zero.

184
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 3: Now we don't know what b y you would do

185
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 3: at home against Ohio State. We don't know what Indiana

186
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 3: would do. We don't know what Tennessee would do, we

187
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 3: don't know what Notre Dame would do. But we know

188
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 3: what Penn State would do, and that is not all

189
00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 3: that much, and so I'm with them in like that

190
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 3: ten to eleven range instead and having to prove themselves

191
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: to be a top ten team given that the results

192
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 3: this year to that point, as we talked about on

193
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: the preview show, little to no throttle on offense all

194
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 3: year long, that they are just in general, you know,

195
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 3: distancing themselves from clearly lesser teams. That's that's not the

196
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 3: Penn state of twenty twenty four, and it feels like

197
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 3: they're in that spot, whether it's the A People Coaches

198
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: Poll or even more important for Ballerpol that they're getting

199
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 3: a benefit of the doubt for an unclear reason right now.

200
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: Well, I think this week will help us sort things

201
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: out a little bit further agreat. We've got Georgia on

202
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: the road at ol Miss, We've got Alabama on the

203
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: road at LSU, We've got BYU on the road at

204
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: Utah and the Holy War. Even games like Colorado Texas

205
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 1: Tech have a lot of intrigue associated with them. There

206
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: are suddenly real conference implications for some of these games

207
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 1: that we couldn't have dreamt up weeks ago. So we'll

208
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: get into that and much much more either on today's

209
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: episode or as we get into the preview, but as

210
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,439
Speaker 1: we have advertised this show as sort of our opportunity

211
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: to take a look back at what we missed. Let's

212
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: talk week ten again. Dan, Let's what did you have

213
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: the pleasure of going back and watching where did your

214
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: where did your attention go? First? When you look at

215
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: the sheet, realize what we still had to cover, and

216
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 1: decided to fire up the nefarious YouTube streams and watch

217
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: a game. I think Texas Tech won their game in

218
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: such a losing effort that I cannot believe Iowa State

219
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: lost that game. I cannot believe Baron Morton threw two

220
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: picks in the opening part of the middle eight within

221
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 1: like a minute and a half of time, want first opportunity.

222
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: Iowa State went three and out in like twenty seconds.

223
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: And then they score a touchdown right before halftime, get

224
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: the ball back after halftime, and lose their first fumble

225
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: I think of season.

226
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 3: I think that's what I saw. Their tight end got

227
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 3: it punched out from behind as they were driving. It

228
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 3: starts raining like crazy near the end of the game,

229
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 3: and somehow Texas Tech. Texas Tech puts together like a

230
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 3: twelve play buck forty two long drive down the field

231
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 3: in the rain, surviving a third and fifteen, a fourth

232
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 3: and seven, and are able to punch it in with

233
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 3: I don't know, twenty seconds left something like that, and

234
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 3: somehow hold on to win that game. I don't it was.

235
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 3: It was a cocktail. It was a losing cocktail that

236
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 3: somehow came together for Texas Tech. I could not believe

237
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 3: watching that game back, and they had the performances right.

238
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 3: Josh Kelly was very good and was an absolute dude,

239
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,599
Speaker 3: especially early on in that game. TODJ. Brooks continues to

240
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 3: be a dude. Baron Morton did make plays. I just

241
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 3: can't believe the stolen possessions and the freak fumble loss

242
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: all added up to losing this game for Iowa State

243
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 3: in the rain, Right, it was going to be so

244
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,719
Speaker 3: difficult for Texas Tech to move the ball down the

245
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 3: field against the quality Iowa State defense. And credit to

246
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: Texas tack of course, of course, credit to Texas Tech.

247
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 3: Win your clunkers, of course, of course, of course, win

248
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 3: is a win. I can't believe Iowa State.

249
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Lost this game and Texas Tech now finds itself in

250
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: a position of real consequence. That's not to say that

251
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: they have a great chance of winning the Big Twelve.

252
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: I don't think they have much chance at all of

253
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: winning the Big Twelve, if I'm being honest with you,

254
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: But they definitely have a chance to impact the way

255
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: that that conference shakes out, not the least of which

256
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: is this game this weekend against Colorado.

257
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 3: I cannot believe it.

258
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: I was curious what happened in that one. I put

259
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 1: the call out on our discord, and people were just like,

260
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: Iowa State kept stalling out. They kept stalling out, they

261
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: had some mistakes. It was totally unfounding that they would

262
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: lose that game, because it felt like they were good

263
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,439
Speaker 1: enough to win. But we know the way that sometimes

264
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: these games go, especially in the Big Twelve.

265
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 3: It was twenty two to seventeen Iowa State with two

266
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 3: minutes left with I think a long field right seventy

267
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 3: one yard drive, so yeah, a not insignificant amount of

268
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 3: yardage to cover in the rain. I can't believe. I

269
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: just I watched that game and I knew what had happened.

270
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 3: It had happened twenty four hours early, and I was like,

271
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 3: I must have seen the results wrong here. This is

272
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 3: an impossible game for Iowa State to lose. Yes, the

273
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 3: offense was not on track at all and they couldn't

274
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 3: generate bigger plays consistently ied the touchdom pass of Jaden

275
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 3: Higgins the lone touchdown pass.

276
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 1: Its great, But man, I first went to the South

277
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 1: Carolina win over Texas A and M.

278
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 4: Oh.

279
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you and I were watching this one a little

280
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: bit in the car as we were stuck in Michigan

281
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: stadium traffic.

282
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

283
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: South Carolina ended up winning forty four to twenty. A

284
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: game was at home and Williams Brice over Texas A

285
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: and M. A and M was fine high right and

286
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: was the only unbeaten team in the SEC. That obviously

287
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: is no longer the case. I was really struck. First off,

288
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: South Carolina came out like a ball on fire, Yes,

289
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: a ball on fire away, jumped on A and M,

290
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: had a long drive, scored a touchdown like right away,

291
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: right away. South Carolina was in this one to win it.

292
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: Over the course of this game, though, for them to

293
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: amass two hundred and eighty six yards and three touchdowns

294
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: on the ground, that I think speaks volumes about how

295
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: they were able to control the line of scrimmage, and

296
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 1: that is not something that we saw coming at least

297
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: I didn't. I expected at Carolina would give them a game.

298
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: I didn't expect that they would bully a really good

299
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: A and M front Lenora's sellers over one hundred yards

300
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: rushing Rocket Sanders one for four rushing two touchdowns. You

301
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: combine that, by the way, with what Lenora's sellers also

302
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: did through the air, which was close to two fifty

303
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: had two touchdowns. Didn't make the killer interception, right, didn't

304
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: make that killer mistake. This is a really really interesting

305
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: spot now for Texas A and M, which in effect

306
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: still controls its own destiny in the SEC. If they

307
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: went out, they owned the tiebreaker over LSU, who's got

308
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 1: a big game this week, and they beat LSU earlier

309
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: this season, and I believe they would make it in

310
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: over Tennessee due to their own win over Arkansas earlier

311
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 1: in the year. Go to like the second tiebreaker or

312
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: something of that nature. So and I'm still in a

313
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: pretty good spot. But like we have seen elsewhere in

314
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: the SEC, losing a game in this capacity, it gives

315
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: you more questions than answers about their viability longer term. Right, Truly,

316
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 1: nobody in this conference is bulletproof and that is such

317
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: a departure from where I feel like we have been

318
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: over the last decade. There's always been a bulletproof team

319
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: in the SEC, somebody that you can count on getting

320
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: to the playoff feeling good that they're going to win

321
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: a game and get into the championship. I don't know

322
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: if that's the cases here, I really don't. We have

323
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: gone from a point in time where the SEC was,

324
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: in some respects one of the least interesting conferences, because

325
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: all too often it felt like a foregone conclusion, to

326
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: where we're at now, where there is a true log jam.

327
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: We have a log jam dan of five one loss

328
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 1: teams with Georgia and A and M and Tennessee and

329
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: Texas and LSU, and there are all sorts of different

330
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,199
Speaker 1: combinations that are possible as a result of this loss.

331
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: So I was blown away by how well South Carolina

332
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: controlled that point of attack. I'm even more impressed that

333
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: they were able to win this one going away in

334
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: the way that they did. I at one point, you recall,

335
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: thought about trying to throw some money on the live

336
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: line on A and M. I was like, there's no

337
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 1: way this is going to continue on this path. A

338
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,479
Speaker 1: and M is gonna find their way to call back

339
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: into this thing, right They didn't. They didn't. It was

340
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: a professional win by South Carolina.

341
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it felt going in as somebody who had happened

342
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 3: to have a very good week picking games. I'm a

343
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 3: big data guy, Ty, you're a little data guy. It

344
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 3: felt like a scheduled loss for A and M. I

345
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 3: told you I'm a low information pick low information. I'm

346
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 3: a high information Yeah. Non better. It felt like South

347
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 3: Carolina or excuse me, Texts A and M received specific

348
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 3: directions don't go swimming in. There are definitely alligators lagoon

349
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 3: and texts A and M said, I don't know. I

350
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 3: think the title's misleading. And then guess what the lagoon

351
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 3: was full of. In Williams Brice, they both of their

352
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 3: lines got beat up. They play surprisingly undisciplined football on defense,

353
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 3: like they're using the crowd energy to try and motivate themselves.

354
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 3: I think it was Shamar Turner is playing like not

355
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 3: an inch out of control, but a couple feet out

356
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 3: of control, and that the A and M defense, for

357
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 3: as strong as they've gotten over the course of these games,

358
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 3: South Carolina got under their skin. Whether it was on

359
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 3: the ground, whether it was when they got pressure that

360
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 3: Leonoris Sellers was lofting it into the end zone. I

361
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 3: think was Josh Simon who had the big game for

362
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 3: South Carolina through the air and honestly beside it was

363
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 3: one long run from was it Daniels who spelled Levon

364
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 3: Moss for texts? A and M couldn't run the ball

365
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 3: at all against the South Carolina front. Marcel Reid looked overwhelmed,

366
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,160
Speaker 3: not fully his fault, for sure. The offensive line themselves

367
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 3: were overwhelmed in this one.

368
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 1: But this was.

369
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 3: Texas A and M entering the lagoon and making those

370
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 3: mistakes early on that they you just can't come back from.

371
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 3: If South Carolina's offense with even short little dump offs,

372
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 3: the tackling was awful for Texas A and M uncharacteristically so,

373
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 3: and so it was just maybe it was the letdown

374
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 3: moment after the nice win over LSU. Nice is probably

375
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 3: under selling it. Really impressive win over LSU, the way

376
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 3: that they came back, but it was just a tough spot.

377
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 3: And so I'm not down on A and M. I

378
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 3: think that was just an impossible task, a near impossible

379
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 3: task to ask of them going into again. Definitely Alligator

380
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 3: Lagoon and so really really interesting conversation we had about

381
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 3: South Carolina and what their ceiling might be when fully

382
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 3: healthy Lenora Sells is in there and they're playing at home.

383
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 3: They are really fun. I wish there were more to

384
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 3: their offensive line in terms of consistency. I wish there

385
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 3: were more in terms of the back end of that

386
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 3: defense in terms of consistency. But there's a lot there.

387
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 3: There's a really solid foundation. If they can keep recruiting

388
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 3: like this and finding those guys up front. I don't know, man,

389
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 3: They're awfully fun.

390
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: They are fun. And look, this has been by any measure,

391
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 1: and incredibly successful season so far. Yeah, because I recall,

392
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: as is ever the case with South Carolina, at the

393
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 1: start of the year, you look at the schedule and

394
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: you say, there's no chance, right, there's no chance. I

395
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: think I even said if they make it to a

396
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: bowl game, there's just like no chance of them making

397
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: a bowl game. They're five and three right now, they

398
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: are five and three. They close out the year with Vandy, Mazoo, Wafford,

399
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: and Clemson.

400
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 3: That's just a fun TV show, right, That's a fun

401
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 3: stretch of the South Carolina TV season.

402
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: Three of those games are obviously tougher than the Wafford matchup.

403
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: They're gonna beat Wafford, They're gonna get the six wins,

404
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 1: They're going to go to a bowl. Yeah, what is

405
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: the ceiling? We know Vandy's beatable, Vandy's plucky.

406
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 3: They can win all those games for sure. Where's the

407
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 3: Clemson game?

408
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 1: Clemson games at Clemson.

409
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 3: Tough but not flying across the country All.

410
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,199
Speaker 1: Metal Bowl closed out the year. Clemson's beatable. Missoo, we

411
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 1: know Missoo's beatable. Yeah, a nine and three South Carolina

412
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 1: if everything goes according to the plan, oh Man.

413
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 3: Nine and three, maybe get that tenth in a bowl

414
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 3: game and get just an unbelievable amount of offseason juice

415
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 3: in Columbia could be a candidate.

416
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: Shane Beemer would have to fight off Oklahoma with a

417
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: stick if that happened, Just go to Oklahoma. Tennessee also

418
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 1: struggled a little bit. If we're talking all things SEC

419
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 1: struggled with Kentucky. Of all teams, Kentucky led ten to

420
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: seven and half. Then Tennessee came storming back in the

421
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: second half. They outscored Kentucky twenty one to eight. Kentucky

422
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: was down five starters to injury. Then they lost Brock

423
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: Vandergriff to a hard hit. They also lost Barrion Brown

424
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: during the game, so it should not be understated how

425
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 1: banged up Kentucky is.

426
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 3: But and yet, well, I was gonna say, and yet

427
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 3: Kentucky was in this one late.

428
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: They were in this one late. They had momentum. Tennessee

429
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 1: could not stop missing field goals. They missed three field goals,

430
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,959
Speaker 1: including one early in the third quarter. They get the

431
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 1: ball back, Rock vander Griff loses a fumble on the

432
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,120
Speaker 1: ensuing drive, sets up Tennessee for go ahead score. Suddenly,

433
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 1: the game's fourteen to ten. From that point forward, they

434
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: had all the momentum Tennessee did. Yeah, so it continues

435
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 1: what I think is a frustrating season for Kentucky. They're

436
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: four straight week now where they failed to score points

437
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 1: on a drive inside their opponent's five yard line. Feels

438
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 1: a little bit like Penn State, frankly feels a little

439
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: bit like USC feels like there's a lot there. Yeah,

440
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: Kentucky has yet to score more than twenty points in

441
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,719
Speaker 1: an SEC game this season, so the offense is not

442
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: really taken. Kentucky's got a lot to sort out on

443
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 1: the tennis seaside, though they close out with Georgia, with

444
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,959
Speaker 1: U tepping with Vandy and big games coming up.

445
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 3: Definitely.

446
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: Nico finally threw from more than two hundred yards against

447
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: an SEC opponent, but.

448
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 3: Was not really like super decisive. Kentucky did a good

449
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 3: job taking away the deep ball. He had a nice Nego,

450
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 3: had a nice rapport with was A Kitzelman the tight end. Sure,

451
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 3: he had a sensational game. Dylan Sanzman was one who

452
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 3: pretty much drove the train for Tennessee. I would say

453
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 3: a continued apprehension from Nico at times that improvised well

454
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 3: because he wasn't necessarily on time going through his progressions

455
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 3: and hitting somebody in stride and then the pass rush

456
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 3: would collapse the pocket, but he would, you know, scramble

457
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 3: to pick up a third and three first down or something.

458
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 3: But there is not that it doesn't seem that there's

459
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 3: that comfort and confidence to just like hit a guy

460
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 3: up the seam in rhythm right now. Credit Kentucky, of course,

461
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 3: But I don't know there's he's just he's taking a

462
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 3: tick too long still and then rolling out and then

463
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 3: hoping to find somebody during a scramble drill a little

464
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 3: bit too often.

465
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: I believe Tennessee, Yeah, can make the SEC title game

466
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: if they win out and if Bama beats tells you

467
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: this weekend.

468
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 3: If Bama beats LSU, Tennessee winning out means wins over

469
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 3: Georgia and Vandy anybody else on Tennessee schedule. I forget

470
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 3: you went through it just recently.

471
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, So if that happens, let me pull it up

472
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: here quick. They would obviously have the win over George,

473
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: WHI would be a really nice win, and that would

474
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: knock Georgia from out in front of them right in

475
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,719
Speaker 1: these standings here other teams that they have beaten. They

476
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: beat Alabama, that was a big one. They beat Oklahoma,

477
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: which is a common opponent with some of their.

478
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and George and Vandy are both on the road.

479
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: Georgia Vady both in the road. They lost their one

480
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: SEC game to Arkansas on the road. And that's sort

481
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 1: of why we start looking at this and wondering, right,

482
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: who has to lose to whom in order to give

483
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: them an opportunity. But this is what you want if

484
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 1: you're a Tennessee fan, you want you want to win

485
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: the rest of the way, and then you want, of course,

486
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: for Alabama to knock off LSU.

487
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 3: Yes, you want if you're a Tennessee person, you want

488
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 3: the defensive effort to continue, and you want just a

489
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 3: little more in terms of pop. I think I have it.

490
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 3: Poll got on that offense, just a little more in

491
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 3: terms of big plays, a little more in terms of

492
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,959
Speaker 3: opening things up on the outside, a little more of

493
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 3: that confidence just in terms of what they have left

494
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 3: on their schedule, what they might have moving forward. But

495
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 3: all things considered, to just have the one loss pretty

496
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 3: nice place to be.

497
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: The one issue that we did not discuss at all

498
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: on the episode was the ACC title race. Right we

499
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: talked about Miami. We talked about the Miami duke game

500
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: because that was close until it wasn't late. Miami ended

501
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: up winning that one, put up over fifty points, ended

502
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: up winning that one going away cover the point spread.

503
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 1: Louisville knocked off Clemson thirty three to twenty one on

504
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: Saturday night and Pitt knocked off or excuse me, SMU

505
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: knocked off Pitt by a forty eight to two twenty

506
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: five score. Yes, where things stand right now is both

507
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: Miami and SMU undefeated in conference both five and zero.

508
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: Clemson and Pitt need to win out and get some

509
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,880
Speaker 1: help if they want to have any opportunity to get

510
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: into that ACC title game. I think the way things

511
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 1: are shaking out right now, it is unclear to me

512
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: whether or not it's going to be the ACC or

513
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,959
Speaker 1: the Big twelve getting two teams in. I had for

514
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: a long time been in the camp that I think

515
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: the ACC is going to get the two teams in.

516
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:41,880
Speaker 1: I think Big twelve is only going to get one.

517
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: I think Notre Dame's going to get in. We're obviously

518
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: going to have our G five team, and then the

519
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 1: rest are going to be split up among the Big

520
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: ten and the SEC. Yes, starting to question how that's

521
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 1: going to shake out now. I think I need to

522
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: see more data. We know that the Big twelve is

523
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 1: going to come down to the wire. I think it

524
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: depends a lot on how some of these teams look

525
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: from this point forward. But let's start with the Clemson game. Yeah,

526
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: as we were recording, we were looking at the score

527
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: on my laptop thinking, what the hell's going on here? Yeah,

528
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: what is going on here? Because Louisville had a seventeen

529
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 1: to seven lead at half. They were up twenty six

530
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: to seven after the third quarter. Clemson did try to

531
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 1: mount a late rally, but it was too little, too late.

532
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: If you look up and down this one, Dan Louisville

533
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: blocked two field goals, one in the first half, one

534
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: in the second. Their defense a defense, by the way,

535
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 1: that to I think a fair it's not unfair to

536
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,919
Speaker 1: say that Louisville's defense to an extent has underperformed. They

537
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: didn't end this game, No.

538
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 3: They did not.

539
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 1: In this game. They had plenty of opportunities to showcase

540
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 1: how good they are. They had a really big fourth

541
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 1: down stop late in the third quarter. Clemson went for it,

542
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 1: I think from their own thirty three yard line something

543
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 1: like that. They did not get it. They stopped film

544
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: off up up the middle. This was a nice showing

545
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: for Louisville. I don't know if it poortends anything for

546
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 1: the remainder of Louisville's season, where they go in the

547
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: bowl season, what it looks like moving forward. But there

548
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 1: were individual moments in this game, not just on defense,

549
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 1: but Tyler Schuck sort of flying through the air doing

550
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 1: his summer assaulting Superman into the end zone to emphatically

551
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: score and give Louisville a little bit more of a lead.

552
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 1: This was a loss for Clemson that really caught me

553
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: off guard. I've watched a lot of Louisville this season.

554
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: I genuinely did not see this one coming.

555
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 3: It was the high leverage moments and the line play,

556
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 3: especially the defense, But honestly, I thought the offensive game

557
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 3: was called a little bit weird. Certainly when you look

558
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 3: at the two point conversion versus extra point decisions that

559
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 3: Dabo was making late where he pointed to not going

560
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 3: down eleven because the card said to kick two extra

561
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 3: points and hope for at least one on sidekick.

562
00:28:58,880 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.

563
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just not terribly bright.

564
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: And they attempted two of them. They attempted two of them,

565
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:05,320
Speaker 1: Louisville recovered both.

566
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't think the percentages are terribly in

567
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 3: Clemson's favor for that type of plan. But I don't know.

568
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 3: It just seemed questionable to me. But everything was questionable

569
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 3: about Clemson. Their defensive performance was not good. They got

570
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 3: pushed around a ton, especially up front. Defensive line was

571
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 3: on skates. Neither of these quarterbacks were particularly great and

572
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 3: consistent downfield through the air, Louisville just made better decisions

573
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 3: and executed in big moments in a way that Clemson

574
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 3: simply couldn't. And so I guess the best possible thing

575
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: now for the ACC would be I mean, because it's

576
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 3: what SMU and Miami aren't kind of a collision course, yep.

577
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 3: So in regard to your saying you know who's going

578
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 3: to get two teams in the ACC are Big twelve,

579
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 3: I guess the worst thing would be for BYU to

580
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 3: run the table and give somebody a second or third

581
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 3: loss in the conference championship game. So you have one

582
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 3: BYU team standing apart and then an easily dismissable second

583
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 3: or third team whatever within the Big twelve, whereas we

584
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 3: could just have a conference undefeated SMU with a loss

585
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 3: to BYU. So that's an interesting conversation to have down

586
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 3: the line when there's a head to head with SMU

587
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 3: and BYU, if they're being pitted against each other in

588
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 3: terms of playoff selection, and a Miami team that has

589
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 3: been good but inconsistent and undefeated. Right, So Pitt certainly

590
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 3: did not look to be of playoff caliber or of

591
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 3: conference championship caliber given their performance against that SEMU, which

592
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 3: we can get to and we talked about the Miami

593
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 3: game already that they had you know, long dry spell,

594
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 3: but did what very good teams do and pull it

595
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 3: out and improve over the course of the game. I

596
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to see Clemson again

597
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 3: in this ACC championship game.

598
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: Well, I don't think you're gonna. I mean, Clemson would

599
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: need to run the table, would need some help to

600
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: have any shot of getting into that title game. Their

601
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: ability to do so is limited because they close out

602
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: with Roague games against Virginia Tech and Pitt the Citadel

603
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: and then a non conference game while the Citadel's non conference,

604
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: but a Citadel another non conference game the pull Metal Ball.

605
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: As we mentioned earlier against South Carolina, there are just

606
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: not enough teams above them in the standings on this schedule,

607
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: so they're going to need help from the outside. They've

608
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: got a big one against Pitt that will be meaningful

609
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: for both of those teams I think, to decide in

610
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,719
Speaker 1: effect the third place finisher in the ACC regular season.

611
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: But as things stand right now, with any kind of luck,

612
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: right if Miami, if SMU find their way through this

613
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: thing without hitting a snag, they're going to be unbeaten,

614
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: and they're going to be playing for the a SEC

615
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: title game now. Between by Miami and SMU, Miami definitely

616
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 1: has more in their path that I think could trip

617
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: them up. I think it looks pretty clear for SME.

618
00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: This is one of the reasons why I like them

619
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: to win the conference, or to at least be in

620
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: contention to win the conference at the start of the year.

621
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: The schedule sets up real nice. I think it's harder

622
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: from Miami this point forward. People who listened to this

623
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: show know I'm on record saying that one of these

624
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 1: games is going to jump up and bite it me.

625
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 1: It could be this week, could be this week. We'll

626
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: talk about that on Thursday. The other one, though, if

627
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 1: we're talking about SMU, so, it was Louisville thirty three

628
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: Clemson twenty one. SMU beat Pitt forty eight to twenty five.

629
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 1: They led thirty one to three at half. They outscored

630
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: Pit twenty four to zip in the second quarter. Pitt

631
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: was down thirty four to three before they scored their

632
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: first touchdown in this game. Damn So. This was a

633
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: dominant effort from SMU. Of Pitt's four hundred and fifty

634
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: three yards They had three hundred of them after half,

635
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: when they were already down four scores. This was a

636
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: game where pitt was uncharacteristically bad at tackling, at least

637
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: in the early part of this game. They had some

638
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: early tackling miss apps that led to big plays for SMU.

639
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: That is what I think sprung them and gave them

640
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: that momentum. Also, speaking of professional wins, Kevin Jennings bounce

641
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 1: back effort. Yeah, absolutely, bounce back effort on horrible outing

642
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: a week ago looked really solid, really solid, big game

643
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: for Brishard Smith, my guy, you know, I love.

644
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 3: Them, dude, Roderick Daniels all over the place.

645
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 1: SMU rose to the moment in this game, and it

646
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: was not a matchup that got a ton of national

647
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: attention for whatever reason.

648
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 3: MM.

649
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: But here we are now going into week eleven, looking

650
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: at the standing, it's clear as day it's there for U. Say,

651
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: it was there for the winner of this game to

652
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: just have this march into the ACC title game. Being

653
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: so SMU one looking at schedules, they've got the clearest

654
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 1: path through. They really truly do. It's incredible.

655
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 3: I can't believe. September sixth BYU SMU was a game

656
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 3: that we now look back on as having major majum

657
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:09,319
Speaker 3: major playoff implications, right, And it wasn't a blowout, No,

658
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 3: it was. It was a crazy close game.

659
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: It leads us down a very very uncomfortable path frankly,

660
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: where somebody in one of those post ranking interviews on

661
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 1: the Tuesday Night rankings reveal shows is going to say

662
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: at some point, quote SMU gets the benefit of a

663
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: close loss to BYU. B Why I cannot express this enough.

664
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,800
Speaker 1: I did. I thought by you might win four games

665
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: this year.

666
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, four games.

667
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: I did not see this coming. So we're going to

668
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:48,240
Speaker 1: have that conversation. That game is extraordinarily meaningful. I wanted

669
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: to write SMU off after they lost that game because

670
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 1: they looked horrible. But we now have the benefit of hindsight, and.

671
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 3: We're talking about two teams who are brand new to

672
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 3: Power conference football now having a result in which there

673
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 3: are major implications in SMU playing forever in the American

674
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 3: and BYU most recently as an independent. But certainly you

675
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 3: look back at some of those West Coast conferences they

676
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 3: were in wild that that is a big success story

677
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 3: of realignment in terms of programs who have invested and

678
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 3: have been patient and have hired well, especially in terms

679
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,399
Speaker 3: of where SMU is with you know, going coach over

680
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 3: coach over coach for so long that RHT Lashly and

681
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 3: making a move from Preston Stone to Kevin Jennings has

682
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 3: paid off in a big way. It's it's crazy impressive

683
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,919
Speaker 3: that these two teams are in this spot. And I look,

684
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 3: I mean Crowe, I was making fun of you for

685
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 3: your SMU talk you season.

686
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: We have our story.

687
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 3: It's on me.

688
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: We all have stories. There were ones that I was

689
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 1: way off on too, so it's yeah, I don't hold

690
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: it against you. I love you like your brother. You

691
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 1: know that.

692
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 3: Thank you so much time.

693
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: A couple other games here that we did not get

694
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: to discuss in any great level of detail. You and

695
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,799
Speaker 1: I watched the edd of this Washington USC game, and

696
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: to peel back the curtain a little bit, Yeah, what.

697
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 3: Did I tell you?

698
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: You foretold what was going to happen in this game.

699
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: I mean the universe foretold it, The Universe four told it. Yeah,

700
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: but you were watching this game. They were about five

701
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 1: minutes left, and you pretty much said it to a

702
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 1: t USC's gonna have the ball late. They're going to

703
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to score, They're gonna have an opportunity

704
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: to win, and they're gonna find some way to blow it.

705
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:27,719
Speaker 3: Yeah.

706
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 1: Sort of happened to him again, didn't it.

707
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, of course it did. This is USC on the road.

708
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 3: This is USC with Miller Moss making some absolutely sensational throws.

709
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 3: This is USC leaning on the run game super effectively

710
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 3: down the stretch. It is a Washington team who was

711
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 3: able to play good enough defense. I think it was

712
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 3: Carson Brunner who came up with the big, big pick

713
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,360
Speaker 3: when it seemed I think USC was up twenty one

714
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 3: to twenty at the time and driving, and Washington was

715
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 3: able to completely silence that drive and take away any

716
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 3: sort of momentum, and then the goal line stand. I

717
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 3: think it was run, run, pass, run on fourth and

718
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 3: goal from the one for a loss, and then more

719
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 3: Lincoln Riley saying, you can just see how close we are.

720
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 3: Anybody who's watching knows how close we are. Losing late

721
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 3: always is not close. It becomes a certainty at a

722
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 3: certain point if you're in a position to win a

723
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 3: game on the road late always and are always losing.

724
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 3: And I think I saw some stat that Eric Gentry

725
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 3: is still leading the team in sacks and he hasn't

726
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 3: played in five weeks. That they just don't get to

727
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:38,399
Speaker 3: the quarterback. That I don't think.

728
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: I don't think.

729
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 3: Again, this is me paraphrasing. I don't believe a defensive

730
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 3: lineman has a sack for USC this season. I think

731
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 3: they've all come from linebackers or dbs. It's either this

732
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 3: season or in Big Ten play or something. So as

733
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 3: far as the defense has come in terms of tackling,

734
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 3: in terms of getting off the field, this defensive line

735
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 3: is very limited in terms of tangible pressure and results

736
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 3: and improvement. It's wild that this USC team just does

737
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:10,919
Speaker 3: not get home.

738
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,959
Speaker 1: Ever. Where do they go from here?

739
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 3: Don't know?

740
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: Man, Like, what is what is the grand plan? If

741
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: you're Lincoln Riley and you have to give a power

742
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 1: point at the end of the year to your boss

743
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: and outline what the philosophy is the what the strategy

744
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 1: is for getting this team to the next level. Right,

745
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: We've already seen them try to do it on the

746
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: back of incredible individual efforts I e. Kleb Williams, and

747
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 1: certainly they have had talented skill position players at USC.

748
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 1: The last couple of years, that's not anything new for SC. Right,

749
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 1: it does feel like the defense is improved this season.

750
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:57,959
Speaker 1: They're better, if nothing more, at tackling, but it still

751
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,399
Speaker 1: feels like they are a few ticks short of where

752
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 1: they want to be. Is it a Miller Moss thing?

753
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: Is it a play calling thing? Is it a Lincoln

754
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: Riley thing? Is it too complicated to pin on just

755
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: one thing? What should the strategy be? Where is it

756
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: falling short?

757
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 3: I mean just finishing games? I mean that's generally the difference.

758
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 3: That USC was in a position to be a disappointing

759
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 3: Maryland team, a disappointing Michigan team, decent Minnesota team, but

760
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 3: the game was in their grasp, and now a four

761
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 3: and four Washington team. It's away from home, but it's

762
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 3: high leverage moments. It's having a plan. It seems like

763
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 3: it might be whatever it is that they are or

764
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 3: aren't practicing in practice and just being ready to be

765
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 3: on the same page for these big moments. I don't know.

766
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 3: Sometimes those excellent teams you watch them and you're like,

767
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 3: this is second nature. Right, They've practiced this so much

768
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 3: that they can't screw it up. And USC it was

769
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 3: receivers getting open. It was pass protection. It was Miller

770
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 3: Moss not being able to pull the trigger, laid on

771
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 3: that fourth and I think it's fourth and four. Yeah,

772
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 3: deep in Washington tear. They're just, for whatever reason, they're

773
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 3: not ready to succeed late.

774
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 1: Ever, I'm curious to get your read on who impressed

775
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: you this weekend. Not so much from any of the

776
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:16,400
Speaker 1: games that we have discussed here over the last half hours.

777
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: So maybe going back to some of the games we

778
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 1: talked about on Saturday. I have three in particular that

779
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,839
Speaker 1: I want to call out. The first is Arizona State. Yes,

780
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: shout out Jonathan Pope, who sent us a tweet asking

781
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:33,919
Speaker 1: when are you guys going to talk about Arizona State.

782
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: It's not lost to me now that we now have

783
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 1: dueling big twelve popes Jonathan and Peter Oh.

784
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 3: I was hoping this was going to be like your

785
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 3: psych like psich, We're still not going to talk about

786
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 3: ASU and set up a nice little teas there continue.

787
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: I feel compelled to talk about ASU because I was

788
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: so high on Oklahoma State. Yeah, so this conversation is

789
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,320
Speaker 1: half what the hell is going on with Oklahoma State

790
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:00,920
Speaker 1: and half how about Arizona State? Arizona State is Tame

791
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,839
Speaker 1: Bowl eligible. They were a bull elder six and two.

792
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: They held the ball for damn near forty minutes. They

793
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: held Oklahoma State to two hundred and seventy yards, including

794
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:17,319
Speaker 1: just twenty five from Ali Gordon. This was a really

795
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: nice cam scattabo.

796
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 3: Come on, man, scataboo. Yeah, what are we.

797
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: Talking about here? I got scat on the old doodle

798
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: alerts on the list. I had to put him on

799
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 1: the list. A great effort on the ground and through

800
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: the air. He is powering this team. I like Sam Levitt,

801
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: I don't know. I like Kenny Dillingham. Seems like could

802
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,239
Speaker 1: be a fun dude to have a drink with, you know,

803
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: I is he old enough? Probably not.

804
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,919
Speaker 3: I think I saw he was the first coach born

805
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 3: in the nineties to take a team to Bowl eligibility.

806
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: Ever, ASU closes out with UCF on the road at

807
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:58,439
Speaker 1: k State home against BYU and on the road at Arizona.

808
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 1: Here's what's interesting about that slate M no idea what

809
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: to expect from UCF at this point. Now it's a

810
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: winnable game. It's at home, on the road at K State.

811
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 1: K State's be difficult. I would still see difficult. I

812
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: get able.

813
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 3: Maybe that was a tough spot against Houston, but yes,

814
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 3: by not not impossible, BYU.

815
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: Not impossible, tough, but not impossible. Arizona. They're going to

816
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 1: beat Arizona. Arizona's a mess right now. Yeah, what's interesting

817
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: about that slate? Though, even if they're not going ten

818
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: to two, maybe the most consequential November in the Big

819
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:38,720
Speaker 1: Twelve because they've got both k State and BYU remaining. Yeah,

820
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: if they were able to pull an upset in one

821
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 1: of those two affairs, that would have real significance elsewhere

822
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: in the conference. Ash's not going to win the conference,

823
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 1: but as you, with a shot at both of those

824
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 1: teams is interesting and makes the Big Twelve all the

825
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: more fascinating just from a TV show standpoint. So, I'm

826
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 1: impressed in the manner in which they won this game

827
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,839
Speaker 1: forty two to twenty one. This was a bludgeting good

828
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: for them.

829
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 3: This is let's be clear, though their schedule leaves a

830
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 3: lot to be desired in terms of how we evaluate

831
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 3: their quality. Agreed same with Indiana saying with a number

832
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 3: of these teams, I guess he was not different in

833
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 3: this regard. But also if they're a quality team. They'll

834
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 3: draft off of the opportunity truck. And they have a

835
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 3: collapsing Utah. You have a collapse in Kansas, a collapsing

836
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 3: Oklahoma State can't lose to them, and quality teams don't.

837
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 3: As you didn't.

838
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: They didn't win this game twenty three to twenty one

839
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: at the gun. No, they won this game going away,

840
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: and would I would hold that same argument up for Indiana,

841
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 1: because there is such thing as a killer instinct. Again,

842
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 1: a team is not necessarily only as good as it's scheduled.

843
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: It's the old Boise State argument, as I've made years

844
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,279
Speaker 1: and years and years now. Right, the schedule does not

845
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: necessarily mean you are a weaker team. It is just

846
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:56,240
Speaker 1: another data point.

847
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,319
Speaker 3: And Boise would schedule to be fair to Bois, they

848
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 3: would schedule Georgia, they would schedule again, they would schedule

849
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 3: I think Virginia Tech was one of those teams. Maybe

850
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 3: I'm conflating it, but Boise would go out there and try.

851
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 1: This is another instance, though, of a team that's just

852
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: trying to get the bullligibility at this point.

853
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they were decimated after the Herm Edwards thing

854
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 3: in terms of their roster just going out and getting

855
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 3: as many guys as they could and it's coming together.

856
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 3: I mean, they're ahead of schedule. That's all you can say.

857
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:24,040
Speaker 3: Good on them.

858
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 1: I'm impressed with Houston knocking off Kansas State. They showed

859
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 1: real resolve late, getting too late scores in order to

860
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: knock off the Wildcats. That was nice for Willie Fritz.

861
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 1: I'm also really impressed by Iowa. I mean I was.

862
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 3: Brendan Sullivan was my answer to your question.

863
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: Why why Brandon Sulivan? Why do he impress you?

864
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:43,879
Speaker 3: Because he looks like a real cornerback and you don't

865
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:45,239
Speaker 3: see a lot of those in the Big ten all

866
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:45,720
Speaker 3: the time.

867
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,879
Speaker 1: He was like a real quarterb Forty two to ten

868
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:49,440
Speaker 1: for Iowa.

869
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,839
Speaker 3: Forty two to ten. Multiple running backs went off. Their

870
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 3: offense looked continue to continually modern, you know, just spreading

871
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,240
Speaker 3: the ball around more and more, making decisions at quarterback

872
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 3: faster and faster. Brendon Sullivan used his legs efficiently. The

873
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 3: defense was opportunistic against a real bummer of a Wisconsin offense.

874
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 3: If we're going to be clear, like it's very difficult

875
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 3: to see this Wisconsin offense going anywhere significant as currently

876
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 3: constituted and as currently run. It's just it's such a

877
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 3: disappointment and disjointed Wisconsin offense. It's difficult to squint and

878
00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 3: see what they're going for the next year or two.

879
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 3: And so Iowa did what again, any quality too very

880
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 3: good team should do against a Wisconsin team like this,

881
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:41,240
Speaker 3: went straight at them. They were varied, they finished drives,

882
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 3: and they left no doubt.

883
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 1: Any other teams, any other games that you want to

884
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: discuss here, We've got doodal words, We've got your reverbs

885
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,839
Speaker 1: from week ten that we still need to get to.

886
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 1: I can give you a brief outline of what's to

887
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: come in week eleven. Kind of a weird week, but

888
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 1: a fun week, I think in front of us here

889
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: as we get into Saturday. But anything else, Dan, any

890
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 1: other points that you need to bring up, I.

891
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 3: Don't think so. It makes me look forward to week

892
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:12,839
Speaker 3: what's next week? Week eleven? Yeah, even more. I still

893
00:46:12,880 --> 00:46:14,880
Speaker 3: want to go back and watch a couple more games

894
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,360
Speaker 3: that I that I missed out on before the preview

895
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 3: show this week. But no, I think I think that's

896
00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 3: just about it. I mean I sort of underlined ole

897
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 3: miss performance against Arkansas as being of top ten twelve

898
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 3: quality nationally and who knows the way it shakes out

899
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,959
Speaker 3: with the end of the SEC schedule. Weird things have happened.

900
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,760
Speaker 3: Even though you've claimed ole Miss has done though.

901
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:40,919
Speaker 1: Well, they're done so with respect to the SEC, they're

902
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 1: not winning the SEC. They get a win over Georgia,

903
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 1: they're back in the playoff conversation.

904
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, they have to be.

905
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 1: They have to be. They have to be back in

906
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:56,839
Speaker 1: that playoff conversation. But they got to be Georgia. That's

907
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: the thing that you can't lose again and still be

908
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,840
Speaker 1: in this thing. They'd have three loss at this point,

909
00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 1: and I am very skeptical that this is the year.

910
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 1: I feel like we say this is the year every

911
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 1: year for ole Miss, and so as I look at

912
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:14,919
Speaker 1: that matchup, not to give the game away too much,

913
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 1: there are real issues I have with their ability to

914
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:19,280
Speaker 1: go toe to toe with Georgia.

915
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 3: I mean, they have a path rush and Carson Beck

916
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:30,280
Speaker 3: gets very sloppy and unhappy and skittish with the pass rush.

917
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,240
Speaker 1: Did against Florida. He did against Florida.

918
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 3: And it's Georgia's second straight game away from home.

919
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:35,879
Speaker 1: I get it.

920
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:40,279
Speaker 3: I'm just I'm skeptical, and we'll find out at three

921
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 3: thirty Eastern on Saturday. I am skeptical, but to that point,

922
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,959
Speaker 3: they're not done. So not done.

923
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 1: So so they're not done. So let's do dudes. Let's

924
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: do dudes. I've got Jacob Rodriguez from Texas Tech Dan

925
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:02,000
Speaker 1: thirteen tackles, nine solo, two pass breakups, two sacks, two

926
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 1: tackles for lost, big day or Jacob Yeah? Isaac Brown?

927
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: Do you go ahead? No?

928
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 3: Keep going?

929
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 1: Isaac Brown from Louisville had a big game on the ground.

930
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: Jordan Noys from Colorado State kicked a sixty yard field goal.

931
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 1: This is a thing. Now is a thing. Dylan Rizzik

932
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 1: had a great game for UCF. Is the backup to

933
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 1: the backup better than the starter. Who's to say, Rockets

934
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 1: Sanders or South Carolina campskataboo. There he is there he

935
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 1: is twenty three for one to fifty three on the

936
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 1: ground and a touchdown, four for one twenty one and

937
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:38,240
Speaker 1: two touchdowns through the air. Jordan Watkins from Ole Miss.

938
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:42,280
Speaker 1: Somehow we miss this stat line record center eight catches,

939
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty four yards and five touchdowns. Mike

940
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: out Wide and of course Mari and Hampton, who we

941
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:52,960
Speaker 1: did mention on the abbreviated Saturday recap that we did

942
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: went off against Florida State, anybody else, anybody else that

943
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 1: I missed.

944
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 3: Bryceon Washington for Baylor ran for I think right around

945
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 3: two hundred yards anytime you can had a last second win.

946
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,479
Speaker 3: I think the kicker was hoisted after Baylor was able

947
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 3: to get that win over TOCU. But Bryson Washington was

948
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 3: a major major reason. Treyshawn Holden stepped up for Oregon

949
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 3: against Michigan. Though the game we were watching, Tes Johnson

950
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 3: leaves the game I think on the first drive and

951
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 3: Trey Shawn Holden downfield against again beleaguered Michigan secondary. But

952
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 3: he stepped up really nicely in this game against Michigan,

953
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 3: and you know, come back coming back nicely from the

954
00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 3: pretty dumb awful incident against Ohio State, so they're gonna

955
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 3: need him, and he stepped up as always.

956
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 1: We put the call out on social media later in

957
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 1: the day every college football Saturday to get your dude suggestions,

958
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: your dude nominations. There were many other awesome individual performances,

959
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 1: but these are just a few of our favorites.

960
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:47,839
Speaker 5: Dan.

961
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 1: Yes, we also got a bunch of calls from the

962
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 1: verballer hood at eight five to five verbal three. We

963
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 1: did not have a chance to play those because we

964
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 1: did not have the ideal audio setup on Saturday night,

965
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: But our guys, Shay dutifully went back through.

966
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 3: Did you say dutifully?

967
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 1: Dutifully?

968
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was obviously that's a word. But I thought

969
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:09,640
Speaker 3: you were gonna go with dude duty full Ley. I know,

970
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:11,760
Speaker 3: I know, I was hoping that was intentional.

971
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 1: Week ten reverbs have listen.

972
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:20,640

Speaker 2: from our local community, Craft Fair, and I just have

976
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:32,279
Speaker 2: one question for you. Did Vanderbilt just win the Iron Bowl?

977
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 4: I just watched elite loser he Freeze use one of

978
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 4: our final two timeouts while there was two minutes one

979
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 4: second on the clock in the fourth quarter. Let me

980
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 4: say that again, while we were losing, we use a

981
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,880
Speaker 4: time out to save one second.

982
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,800
Speaker 2: I graduated from Purdue, I married into an Auburn family,

983
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:51,319
Speaker 2: and my.

984
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 5: Team's just lost to Nerds?

985
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 2: Is it basketball season?

986
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 5: Watching Ryan Day and James Franklin out Day and out

987
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:02,280
Speaker 5: Franklin themselves should only be done under the heavy influence

988
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 5: of drugs from Atlanta, Georgia calling but nine Windiana. Look

989
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 5: we got boys, coach to Olyncian.

990
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 3: This is Jeff from me Flanston.

991
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 5: I'm currently walking back to my car from the stadium early.

992
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,239
Speaker 5: The only joy I can find in my pain is

993
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,799
Speaker 5: the fact that Michigan is also losing. Go Green.

994
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 1: We may have lost the game, but let's not worry

995
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: about those details.

996
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,279
Speaker 3: It's all about the friends you make along the way.

997
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,799
Speaker 2: Great to see you guys in sunny Annaba. Theme of

998
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:30,800
Speaker 2: your defending national champions at least for a little while longer.

999
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 4: If winning is a skill, Brent probably could really use

1000
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 4: some practice.

1001
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 5: And the words of the great Pete Webber, who do

1002
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:39,000

Speaker 2: to talk to their parents about Nebraska football?

1008
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:56,040
Speaker 5: How they may never see them playing a bowl again?

1009
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 5: Skym rolled the boat. This team could be eight and

1010
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,560
Speaker 5: one if they didn't show against UNC and if they

1011
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,319
Speaker 5: didn't get jobbed against Michigan. But you know what would

1012
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 5: it could have should have rose before nos go gos Hey.

1013
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: It's Jack from Louisville.

1014

Speaker 5: I have a boss who's a big Clemson fan, and

1015
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 5: we killed them tonight because our defense set up.

1016
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:19,279
Speaker 4: Isaac Ground is a beast and my boss is a

1017
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 4: deeply bad person.

1018
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:29,960
Speaker 5: Jobsablog, dan Ty, It's Halloween and guess who just got murdered.

1019
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: Ulane with forty two minutes of possession. Visceraates Charlotte Rowaves

1020

1021
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 1: for those wonderful messages. We did meet Jimmy and Ann Arbor,

1022
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: who oh yeah, give us a call out there did

1023
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: not talk at all like that in person, I would add, now.

1024
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 3: And maybe there are two Jimmies.

1025
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:53,840
Speaker 1: Maybe.

1026
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:54,239
Speaker 4: Uh.

1027
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 1: The one that we met had a very normal sounding voice.

1028
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 3: Yes.

1029
00:52:57,920 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 4: Uh.

1030
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 3: By the way, a couple like weird results elsewhere. Rice

1031
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 3: beat Navy like cleanly fired their coach and beat Navy

1032
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 3: by a couple touchdowns.

1033
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:11,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was one of my terrible bets of the weekend.

1034
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,360
Speaker 1: I also had South Alabama covering the six when I

1035
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: looked at the when I looked at the scoreboard before

1036
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,319
Speaker 1: we hit record on Saturday, they were up big. And

1037
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 1: then I woke up the next morning and looked to

1038
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: see why didn't they cash my bet? And I realized

1039
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,279
Speaker 1: they lost? Right, that wasn't good. That was a bit

1040
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 1: of a weird result, or at least a weird finish.

1041
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 3: Slow ish start for Ashton genty but got going and

1042
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:36,840
Speaker 3: led the way for Boise. That was Friday night, slow

1043
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 3: but eventual win for Army over air Force, which good

1044
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:42,320
Speaker 3: to file away. You're gonna have those games. There's a

1045
00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,560
Speaker 3: lot of emotion obviously tied up in Army Air Force.

1046
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,920
Speaker 3: Good good on them. How about Colorado State? Do you

1047
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,919
Speaker 3: have a sense for what Colorado State is doing this year?

1048
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:52,719
Speaker 1: Not a great sense.

1049
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 3: Okay, you're mister tiebreaker, You're mister standing. All of these

1050
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 3: things are true. Colorado State hasn't lost a game in

1051
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,160
Speaker 3: the Mountain West. Look at the standings. It's not a

1052
00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:06,520
Speaker 3: slam dunk that it's gonna be UNLV Boise State, Colorado State,

1053
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 3: I believe, will technically play five non conference games because

1054
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 3: Oregon State technically is not a Mountain West team.

1055
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:14,520
Speaker 4: Right.

1056
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:19,759
Speaker 3: Colorado State has beaten precisely nobody in terms of how

1057
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 3: good these teams are. But I think that's they're either

1058
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,040
Speaker 3: four or five and oh within the Mountain West.

1059
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 1: Right now, they're four and oh. Right now, yeah, they

1060
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 1: are four and oh.

1061
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 3: Their schedule gets a little bit more difficult a little bit.

1062
00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 3: I mean they have left.

1063
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:33,920
Speaker 1: They've got Wyoming, who's two and seven.

1064
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:35,160
Speaker 3: Okay, Wyomy is not good.

1065
00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,280
Speaker 1: They're on the road at Fresno, who is the best

1066
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 1: remaining school, right.

1067
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 3: That's the team that's more difficult. But Fresno just lost

1068
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:42,319
Speaker 3: two They hung with Hawaii.

1069
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: Right and Utah State, which Utah State does have statistically speaking,

1070
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 1: the worst defense in college football right now.

1071
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:56,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Colorado State, they've lost to Oregon State. They got

1072
00:54:56,080 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 3: destroyed by Texas. I don't know if they've lost anything that. Yeah,

1073
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 3: they've lost a third game as well, Colorado, Oh, Colorado,

1074
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:06,920
Speaker 3: of course. But in the Mountain West, they've snuck by

1075
00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:10,840
Speaker 3: with single digit wins against Air Force San Jose State

1076
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 3: and then beat Nevada by seventeen, beat New Mexico by eleven,

1077
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:18,359
Speaker 3: beat UTEP non conference by ten. Like they're just they're

1078
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,919
Speaker 3: not crazy impressive, but they're they're painting the corners tie.

1079
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 3: The Rams are in an interesting weird position to play

1080
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,399
Speaker 3: in a postseason game right now.

1081
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Boise, for what it's worth, has Nevada road

1082
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:34,800
Speaker 1: games against San Jose State and Wyoming. Then they close

1083
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:38,879
Speaker 1: out the year non conference against Oregon State. So things

1084
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: are setting up really well for boise to make a

1085
00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: run at the Mountain West, for Boise State to finish

1086
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 1: the season one lost, just that one loss being the

1087
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 1: close one against Oregon right now projected to be at

1088
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:53,800
Speaker 1: least a fourteen point victor in each of their remaining games,

1089
00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:58,960
Speaker 1: So things definitely set on a nice course. Let's say

1090
00:55:59,160 --> 00:56:01,840
Speaker 1: to put Boise State in that G five playoff spot.

1091
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:03,960
Speaker 3: And look there, this team is not going to make

1092
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:08,400
Speaker 3: the playoff because they did lose to Boise State. Wazoo

1093
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,319
Speaker 3: is probably going to finish the year eleven and one, Yeah,

1094
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 3: and probably not be in a place of consequence because

1095
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:22,399
Speaker 3: they just dumb bad luck. It's pretty great what we're

1096
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,319
Speaker 3: seeing around this spar right now. Here's what we're looking

1097
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 3: at for Week eleven. I mentioned it's kind of a

1098
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 3: weird week.

1099
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, there are four big games that I pulled out.

1100
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:34,440
Speaker 1: The four that jumped to mind are Georgia at Old Miss,

1101
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: Alabama at LSU. Those I think are obvious I mentioned

1102
00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,480
Speaker 1: earlier BYU at Utah obviously the Holy War. There's a

1103
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: lot riding on that for BYU. Also, Colorado at Texas

1104
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,879
Speaker 1: Tech suddenly has a lot more meaning attached to it

1105
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 1: because Colorado's there, Colorad's got one loss in the Big Twelve,

1106
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,320
Speaker 1: and if things break accordingly, they could find themselves playing

1107
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:59,000
Speaker 1: for the conference. Those are I think the most significant

1108
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 1: with respect to standings immediate future. But there are a

1109
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 1: bunch of other interesting games. Florida at Texas interesting.

1110
00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:11,240
Speaker 3: Ah, not anymore ish because of Djail Lagway.

1111
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:15,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, at least interesting hypothetically two big brands. Miami

1112
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 1: minus eleven at Georgia Tech. Is this one of those

1113
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 1: games where Miami trips up West Virginia at Cincinnati since

1114
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 1: he a four point home favorite. We've got Clemson at

1115
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,920
Speaker 1: Virginia Tech. We've got Michigan at Indiana. Indiana favored by

1116
00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:30,440
Speaker 1: fourteen points against Michigan.

1117
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 3: You saw that.

1118
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I Alwa stayed at Kansas. This was not a

1119
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: game that I really pulled out thinking it was going

1120
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 1: to be all that competitive given the way Kansas started

1121
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 1: the season. But Kansas is slowly kind of like a nuisance. Yeah,

1122
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 1: I Alwa stayed on the road. Who knows. South Carolina

1123
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 1: at Vandy suddenly a very interesting matchup one that I

1124
00:57:55,800 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 1: think has real consequence for the aforementioned SEC tie break?

1125
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 3: What about what about Mississippi State Tennessee in a letdown

1126
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 3: look ahead spot Mississippi State Tennessee.

1127
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:14,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, also got Florida State Notre Dame Washington at Penn State.

1128
00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:17,320
Speaker 1: This is the proper wideout game. I guess eight o'clock

1129
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:21,920
Speaker 1: on Peacock, Maryland at your Oregon Ducks. You see f

1130
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 1: at Arizona State. Let's keep the train rolling here with

1131
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: Arizona State.

1132
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 3: Baby, can't wait.

1157
00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:47,480
Speaker 3: out of your mind. It's going to be a very

1158
00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 3: strange looking Rose Bowl for Iowa, Ucla, Rice, Memphis all

1159
00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:55,120
Speaker 3: of a sudden has a little bit of juice. I

1160
00:59:55,160 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 3: don't know. Memphis lost to Utsa, Calwake Forests to four

1161
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 3: and four. Maybe that gets a little bit weird. App
