0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:10.639
<v Speaker 2>be happy.

<v Speaker 1>joining me as always my man, my man, Dan Rubinstein

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 1>over there in New York City, Sir, how are you?

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:32.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm good.

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:35.640
<v Speaker 2>It feels like you could warm up for a like

0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:38.720
<v Speaker 2>a game show or a talk show. Like you have

0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:41.839
<v Speaker 2>a good voice when you when you say my man, yeah,

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Like I feel as if you could get the crowd

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 2>going at the price is right, some Drew Carrey comes out.

0:00:49.280 --> 0:00:51.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm the Drew Carrey hype man. Is what you're saying?

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.280
<v Speaker 2>You're an opener, like you could come out before Conan, Like?

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Where is everybody from? That?

0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:02.400
<v Speaker 2>I feel doesn't pay well but might be your professional calling.

0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, I don't know how to follow that up, but

0:01:04.959 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>welcome to the show, boys and girls. I'm Ty, He's Dan.

0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>We're the Solid Verbal. You can find us out on

0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Apple or Google or Spotify or tune in or stitcher

0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:15.920
<v Speaker 1>anywhere where you can find a podcast you can listen

0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.120
<v Speaker 1>for free. That's what we do here. We talk college

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:21.600
<v Speaker 1>football now twice a week as we gear up for

0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:24.680
<v Speaker 1>the college football season. Today we are doing a very

0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:30.039
<v Speaker 1>important show. It is our SEC West preview show. Dan.

0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:34.280
<v Speaker 1>We've been going through division by division, conference by conference

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>and talking about all the relevant factoids that may only

0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:41.679
<v Speaker 1>interest you and I, but nonetheless are somewhat important. And

0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:45.520
<v Speaker 1>we did what Big ten East a week ago. Yep,

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 1>that was a big one. Tonight, We've got a huge one.

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>A lot of interest for sure in the SEC West.

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, it is the best division in the southern part

0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:00.800
<v Speaker 2>of the United States. That is something I am willing

0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 2>to confidently say in state right.

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:03.720
<v Speaker 1>That is objectively true.

0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Yeah, I'm excited for this one. I don't have

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 2>a nickname for the SEC West like we've given nicknames

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:14.480
<v Speaker 2>to other divisions, the SEC VEST, the SEC VEST Formed.

0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:20.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't know the SEC Chest. I'm not there yet, Tie.

0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 1>We need a little we need a little skin from

0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Nick Saban before we go SEC Chest.

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:28.200
<v Speaker 2>That's true, there is a lot to talk about. This

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:33.960
<v Speaker 2>is probably more fun for me to talk about than

0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 2>it has been these past few years, just because I

0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 2>like novelty tie. I like treating college football like a

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 2>TV show, and I enjoy that it's a new season,

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 2>a couple of stars left, and we're getting in new blood,

0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, and hopefully it's like did you watch Friday

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 2>Night Lights? Yeah, of course, I'm hoping it's an East

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:54.560
<v Speaker 2>Dill and West still in situation. Yeah, where we have

0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 2>some new stars, we have some new storylines. I am

0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:02.600
<v Speaker 2>excited for what I think is because you know, traditionally

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.960
<v Speaker 2>these past few years, it's been sort of Alabama LSU,

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:08.880
<v Speaker 2>and then Auburn here and there. Auburn, you know, is

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 2>comes along and has a great season, then goes like

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 2>six and six, or you have a year or two

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.640
<v Speaker 2>of the Mississippi schools jumping up, making a lot of noise,

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 2>and then obviously after making a lot of noise, you

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 2>get tight and need a massage.

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Shout out.

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:31.919
<v Speaker 2>But there is something very exciting to me about Arkansas rebooting.

0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:33.680
<v Speaker 2>And we do miss you, Burt. We miss you a

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:34.079
<v Speaker 2>whole lot.

0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:35.800
<v Speaker 1>We do. I still have the sound on the board.

0:03:35.880 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>By the way, people, we did a Reddit ama on yes,

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 1>reddit dot com, slash r slash solid verbal or subreddit,

0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:46.400
<v Speaker 1>and we did get a very specific question about the soundboard.

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Would we be expanding the soundboard to include sounds for

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.400
<v Speaker 1>other coaches, And there was a call out in there

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:55.400
<v Speaker 1>for the Brett Beelms sound, which is never going to leave.

0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:57.240
<v Speaker 1>That's never going to go away just because he's not

0:03:57.280 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 1>a coach.

0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 2>Part of our fabric. We have Jimbo Fisher in a

0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 2>pretty sensical move in terms of we expect a lot

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 2>of success both in the recruiting trail on the field

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:08.600
<v Speaker 2>with texts A and M. I don't know if that

0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 2>means anything beyond nine to three, but in the SEC

0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:16.039
<v Speaker 2>West that's pretty good. And there's I think that the

0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:19.239
<v Speaker 2>nearest and dearest part of the novelty of the SEC West,

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.159
<v Speaker 2>and that's the very first person to ever work in

0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:26.040
<v Speaker 2>both the Bronx and Starkville, Mississippi.

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's a weird VENN diagram, isn't.

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.919
<v Speaker 2>It has become a thing. And Matt Luke with a

0:04:31.960 --> 0:04:34.600
<v Speaker 2>really fun offense at Ole, miss and then you have

0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:39.400
<v Speaker 2>the sort of more familiar stories at Alabama Auburn.

0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:42.920
<v Speaker 1>And listen, listen, listen, listen, listen, listen. I'm ready don't

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>preview it all right out of the show.

0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, I'm just it's sort of like when you read

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 2>one of those articles on the internet tie yeah, where

0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:52.280
<v Speaker 2>they got a couple of highlights up top, but you

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:53.440
<v Speaker 2>got to dig down to find out.

0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:55.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all the juicy stuff. Well, you are excited. You

0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:57.960
<v Speaker 1>sound about as excited as you were the last time

0:04:57.960 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 1>you drank a cold Bruce.

0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:00.920
<v Speaker 2>So I hope you're had a I had a green tea.

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:03.480
<v Speaker 2>I've got some ginger tea right now. It's all flowing,

0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:04.160
<v Speaker 2>all right.

0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, thank you for downloading the show, for listening to

0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:09.800

<v Speaker 1>talk about all things sec. We're also very excited for

<v Speaker 1>a big deal we've got going on this weekend. Now. Look,

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 1>we have talked about this for several months and weeks running,

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>but it is down to the nitty gritty. Yeah. If

0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>you are going to be in Chicago, if you are

0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be around Chicago.

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, If you're just listening to the band Chicago.

0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, whatever the case. If you're a Bears fan, I

0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 1>don't care, get your butt to Chicago. Yeah. On Saturday,

<v Speaker 1>a handful left, but we want people to show up,

0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 1>and we're very excited about this show. We've also had

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:17.360
<v Speaker 1>the opportunity to now go through and in truth solid

0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:22.760
<v Speaker 1>verbal forms start planning our show. Woefully late, yes, but

0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:28.920
<v Speaker 1>the early draft prospects for a Fantasy Things draft are hysterical.

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I am very excited about where this is going to head.

0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:35.120
<v Speaker 2>It's our stupidest and most ridiculous draft ever. And I

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:38.280
<v Speaker 2>can promise you if you show up, ty will one

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 2>do a standing back flip. Two, reveal his day job,

0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 2>his mystery day job, mysterious day job. And three and

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.599
<v Speaker 2>this is the spiciest tie. You've sworn me to secrecy,

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.919
<v Speaker 2>but you said you will reveal the Hollywood starlet with

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:57.400
<v Speaker 2>whom you had an affair many moons ago. Yeah, this

0:06:57.480 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 2>is all happened. I thought I made all of that up,

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 2>but you were in you you got a little bit

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:05.040
<v Speaker 2>closer to your headphones thinking that there was this. It's

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be a great time. We've got guests,

0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:09.960
<v Speaker 2>there's my parents are going to be there. Yeah, it's

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 2>it's ridiculous the mix of people that my Adam Aman's

0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.000
<v Speaker 2>going to be there with my parents. It's all going

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.480
<v Speaker 2>to be very strange and fun. And we cannot stress enough.

0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 2>If none of this appeals to you, you got to

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 2>come just to hang out and it's a cool place

0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 2>in the Chicago summer. We're doing hashtag tenders with tie after.

0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 2>It's a great it's a great, great time coming out

<v Speaker 1>our upcoming new and cool website, which actually might take

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:43.520
<v Speaker 1>live tonight. Do it? Why not with our friends from

0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Super Boss. Yeah, you want to get into the sec

0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Why don't we get in? Hold on? I have a

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.239
<v Speaker 1>drum roll here, Actually, you know what I have, Lex Steele.

0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Let's play him. Yeah, let's play Lex Steele before we

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.520
<v Speaker 1>talk about the SEC West. So let's start where we

0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:01.120
<v Speaker 1>always start. Dan, I feel like a broken record because

0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I start out all the previous shows the same way.

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>The framework for all of these shows is why should

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.080
<v Speaker 1>I care? YEP, Because we're both in our mid thirties

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>at this point. The burden of everyday life is much

0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 1>greater now than it was when we're like fifteen, eighteen,

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty two. Got a lot of things on our minds,

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.840
<v Speaker 1>So why should we care about the SEC West? And

0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that's where we're going with all this. But before we

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.720
<v Speaker 1>get there, let's talk about our initial impressions about the

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:36.280
<v Speaker 1>West just as a division within the SEC, within the

0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:40.080
<v Speaker 1>ecosystem of college football. What are your main takeaways here.

0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:45.760
<v Speaker 2>That there's no real middle ground to the SEC West.

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.560
<v Speaker 2>You have like a ton of experience mixed with a

0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:52.400
<v Speaker 2>ton of questions. No, there's no team that is like,

0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:55.320
<v Speaker 2>oh yeah, I definitely see seven and five, eight and four.

0:08:56.679 --> 0:09:00.319
<v Speaker 2>Things can go in so many different ways for everybody,

0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:02.520
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know if that's necessarily a good thing.

0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:04.280
<v Speaker 2>I think somebody's going to jump up. I think somebody's

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:08.200
<v Speaker 2>going to fall down. But there is which I think

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:10.680
<v Speaker 2>I like. I think I do like this that we're

0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 2>dealing with the case of extremes, at least before the

0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:18.400
<v Speaker 2>season actually starts. That's my impression. You have two teams

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:24.840
<v Speaker 2>that have the clear best defensive fronts in the division

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.120
<v Speaker 2>to me, Alabama and Auburn. LSU is right there as well,

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:34.199
<v Speaker 2>but not quite, and everybody else is just scrambling. Everybody

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.400
<v Speaker 2>else has pieces. There's another team that I like that

0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:40.120
<v Speaker 2>could go to nine to ten wins. But I like

0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:44.040
<v Speaker 2>the fact that there is nothing mellow about this division.

0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, and there's a lot of mystery about it too.

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:48.760
<v Speaker 1>I think we know what we're gonna we're going to

0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:55.320
<v Speaker 1>get from Alabama, right, we don't know all the key contributors. Well,

0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 1>we don't know all the key contributors on defense because

0:09:57.440 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>they're relatively new on defense. But I think we expect

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.680
<v Speaker 1>a level of quality from Alabama that we've seen YearIn

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:05.679
<v Speaker 1>and year out. That's one of the constants of the

0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:10.199
<v Speaker 1>SEC West. But otherwise, you know, new coaches at Mississippi

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:14.480
<v Speaker 1>State and Texas A and M and Arkansas. I got

0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 1>some real hot takes on Arkansas, a full.

0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.679
<v Speaker 2>Time at Ole miss interim tag is off.

0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, sure. So just a lot of mystery throughout

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 1>that I think makes this a very very interesting side

0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:30.679
<v Speaker 1>of the SEC to follow. Let's start at the top

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:36.920
<v Speaker 1>with Alcabama. None of Alabama. Okay, defending national champion dog,

0:10:36.960 --> 0:10:38.240
<v Speaker 1>we gotta talk about it. I wanted to.

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean in the way like we did last week.

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:42.480
<v Speaker 2>I like throwing people for a loop. Who did we

0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:43.200
<v Speaker 2>start with last week?

0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 1>In Indiana? Indiana? Okay, I want to start with Alabama.

0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 1>They are these as expected. Yeah, I know, defending national

0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:55.320
<v Speaker 1>champions eleven to one regular season, won the playoff game,

0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:59.280
<v Speaker 1>and of course won a thriller in the National Championship

0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:02.839
<v Speaker 1>over Georgia, over time, big time pass from Tua tongue

0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:07.839
<v Speaker 1>of Iolaa to win that national championship. This year, now,

0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:13.560
<v Speaker 1>Bama's got ten guys back, ten starters back, seven on offense,

0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:16.960
<v Speaker 1>three on defense. But what I would say is that

0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.199
<v Speaker 1>the number is a little bit misleading if you're Alabama,

0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:24.360
<v Speaker 1>because really it's an embarrassment of riches from top to bottom,

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.800
<v Speaker 1>and even a lot of the quote unquote non starters

0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 1>got a ton of playing time last year, So it's

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:32.839
<v Speaker 1>not a true indicator in the way that it might

0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:35.480
<v Speaker 1>be if we're talking about a team like in Iowa. Right,

0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:38.559
<v Speaker 1>there's just so much depth at Alabama that I think,

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I.

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:41.920
<v Speaker 2>Like Iowa don't pick on Iowa.

0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not picking on Iowa. But would you debate the

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:48.000
<v Speaker 1>point that Alabama's got way more depth than Iowa.

0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:50.520
<v Speaker 2>I would not debate that point.

0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. So here's where we're at with this team.

0:11:53.520 --> 0:11:56.600
<v Speaker 1>We're going to get into all of the relevant names,

0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>but I will start out by saying it is an

0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:02.600
<v Speaker 1>extremely workable road schedule, which is what I look at

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.439
<v Speaker 1>first and foremost anytime we're talking about SEC teams, because usually,

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.719
<v Speaker 1>especially in the West, it's a murderer's row. Here is

0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:12.000
<v Speaker 1>what we're looking at in terms of a road schedule

0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:19.959
<v Speaker 1>for Alabama at Mississippi, at Arkansas, at Tennessee, and at LSU.

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Those are the true road games, right.

0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Louisville's in Orlando.

0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I was gonna say that's where you stole

0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:28.199
<v Speaker 1>my thunder a little bit, but sorry, No, it's okay.

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:32.040
<v Speaker 1>I think the toughest game away from home might be

0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:34.199
<v Speaker 1>in Week one, and it might be the neutral cider

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 1>in Orlando against Louisville.

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:41.200
<v Speaker 2>No, you think going to Orlando to play Louisville a

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Brian Van Gorder defense is going to be more difficult

0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:48.040
<v Speaker 2>than the two million dollar man with a lot of

0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:51.200
<v Speaker 2>healthy talent and Dave Randa go in Death Valley.

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I said, Mike, I was Hedgie a little bit. I said,

0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:58.720
<v Speaker 1>might we love Puma pass? We do. I love me

0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:00.680
<v Speaker 1>some Puma Pass, but.

0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:03.439
<v Speaker 2>I think Elsie's gonna be tougher in Death Valley.

0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:08.240
<v Speaker 1>That's a fair point. So with that being said, I

0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:10.839
<v Speaker 1>think an extraordinary amount of attention is going to be

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.520
<v Speaker 1>paid to this quarterback battle, and I have battle in quotes.

0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:18.440
<v Speaker 1>It's truly an extraordinary situation if you think about it,

0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 1>because Jalen Hurts, like not an all time great passer,

0:13:23.080 --> 0:13:26.320
<v Speaker 1>but at the same time has just lost what is it,

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:30.359
<v Speaker 1>one game in two years as a starting quarterback for Alabama,

0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:34.560
<v Speaker 1>which A that's really good. It's really really good, even

0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:38.880
<v Speaker 1>if he's not a top level passer. Agreed, disagree concerns thoughts.

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't disagree at all. Jalen Hurts has been excellent.

0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:48.640
<v Speaker 2>But within the context of Alabama, I don't believe a

0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:53.360
<v Speaker 2>quarterback goes to Alabama to beat clearly inferior teams and

0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:55.760
<v Speaker 2>look great doing so. I want to say that a

0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:59.719
<v Speaker 2>quarterback and on that level, great position players on both

0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:02.760
<v Speaker 2>sides to the ball go to Alabama to win games.

0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:07.439
<v Speaker 2>In late November, December, and early January. And so that's

0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:10.840
<v Speaker 2>not the case for We'll stick with Iowa or Kansas

0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:15.119
<v Speaker 2>State or cal whatever. But within the context of Alabama,

0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:18.280
<v Speaker 2>it's great to say he's, you know, nine and oh

0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:20.720
<v Speaker 2>or eighteen and oh in September and October, but it

0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:24.040
<v Speaker 2>doesn't While the sec it just means more, it doesn't

0:14:24.080 --> 0:14:25.760
<v Speaker 2>mean as much in this situation.

0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:29.400
<v Speaker 1>I would agree absolutely. We are now in a weird

0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:34.360
<v Speaker 1>spot where Jalen's backup save the day in the National

0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:37.040
<v Speaker 1>title game, in the second half of the National title game,

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:40.600
<v Speaker 1>title game, excuse me, particularly in the fourth quarter and

0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 1>overtime spots of that National Championship game, which means there

0:14:45.720 --> 0:14:47.800
<v Speaker 1>is now a real open question about who is going

0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:51.760
<v Speaker 1>to get the spot. I think it's assumed that it's

0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:54.800
<v Speaker 1>going to be to a tongue of Ayola at this point.

0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I like, how careful you are attentive to his last name.

0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>As you might have guessed, Jalen Hurts is frustrated about this,

0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:05.800
<v Speaker 1>and he did. He raised some eyebrows with comments that

0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:09.000
<v Speaker 1>he made last week where he was pretty candid about

0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the situation. He's like, nobody's asked me how I felt

0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:16.400
<v Speaker 1>about this How did you feel about what he said?

0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I thought all of it was reasonable. He's in a

0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:25.560
<v Speaker 1>very strange position as an admittedly successful quarterback who has

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:28.840
<v Speaker 1>done everything asked of him. He had a bad first half.

0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:32.160
<v Speaker 2>He had a not so great Iron Bowl, not great

0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 2>against Clemson, but the defense was unreal, and they made

0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:38.320
<v Speaker 2>a good call to bring in his backup, and his

0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.000
<v Speaker 2>backup shines. And he's been put in this position where

0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he wants to sit out for a year,

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:45.080
<v Speaker 2>and he can graduate at the end of this season,

0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 2>I believe, in December. And it's hard to imagine that

0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.800
<v Speaker 2>no matter what the coaching staff says, that he is

0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:58.720
<v Speaker 2>getting the fairest shake in terms of competing for this job,

0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 2>because it's impossible to view twenty eighteen in a vacuum,

0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:05.800
<v Speaker 2>because you have all of this evidence that at times,

0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:07.840
<v Speaker 2>and listen, he was even in the National Championship game

0:16:07.840 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 2>they lost, he was amazing. He brought them back.

0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:10.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:16.360
<v Speaker 2>Right, It's it's hard not to say we got to

0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:19.560
<v Speaker 2>see what Tua has. It's hard not to say that

0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 2>after you know, he looked great in garbage time last year.

0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:24.760
<v Speaker 2>He didn't really play that many, if any meaningful snaps

0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:27.880
<v Speaker 2>in games where there were something on the line, you know,

0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.800
<v Speaker 2>within a couple of touchdowns or something. But coming in

0:16:31.840 --> 0:16:35.440
<v Speaker 2>and playing that way against Georgia, it's impossible not to

0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:38.320
<v Speaker 2>ask yourself what would he be like getting number one

0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:41.520
<v Speaker 2>reps in practice, starting games, getting in a rhythm, getting

0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:44.280
<v Speaker 2>more comfortable with the speed of the game. So I

0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:49.480
<v Speaker 2>can sympathize with Jalen Hurt saying nobody's really talking to me.

0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.040
<v Speaker 2>It feels like everybody's going through the motions. I feel

0:16:52.040 --> 0:16:56.400
<v Speaker 2>like I'm going through the motions, and it's it's difficult,

0:16:56.440 --> 0:16:58.720
<v Speaker 2>and I think it a rough spring because too was out,

0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.120
<v Speaker 2>so he was counted on for the number one reps

0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:03.680
<v Speaker 2>once again. So it was a hand injury, which was

0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:09.120
<v Speaker 2>now fine. But it's a tricky situation. And I cannot

0:17:09.119 --> 0:17:12.919
<v Speaker 2>imagine a way in which he is named the outright

0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:15.639
<v Speaker 2>starter and that is that, and he hangs out in

0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Tuscaloosa for another year after this one.

0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:21.600
<v Speaker 1>It's such a weird situation. There were say what we

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:23.960
<v Speaker 1>want about his passing numbers, but a lot of his

0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:27.200
<v Speaker 1>numbers did improve from the year before. He just wasn't

0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:31.520
<v Speaker 1>the savior in the National Championship game. And let's be honest.

0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:32.959
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to be the savior. He just had

0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:33.720
<v Speaker 2>to be Okay, are.

0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Pretty good, that's fair, absolutely, and he may not have

0:17:38.000 --> 0:17:40.679
<v Speaker 1>the skill set at least the same degree as to

0:17:40.760 --> 0:17:44.879
<v Speaker 1>a tongue of ayolola so attentive. The other thing that

0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll point out here, because there are other players in

0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:50.719
<v Speaker 1>this team, yeah, is how damn striking it is to

0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:52.920
<v Speaker 1>look at the numbers from last year and realize how

0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Little Bama actually needed to throw because they had three

0:17:56.400 --> 0:18:02.479
<v Speaker 1>guys and Damien Harris, Jalen Hurts, and Scarborough, all of

0:18:02.480 --> 0:18:04.800
<v Speaker 1>whom had more than one hundred and twenty four carries.

0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:08.879
<v Speaker 1>Naji Harris had sixty one carries. So they ran the

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:13.000
<v Speaker 1>ball an awful lot last year. This year, both Damian

0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:16.200
<v Speaker 1>and Nase are back. Dan It's a double Harris backfield,

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:19.840
<v Speaker 1>and I'm thinking, I'm thinking my pet nickname could be

0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:22.600
<v Speaker 1>Major Harris in an old nod to like nineteen eighty

0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:24.760
<v Speaker 1>eight West Virginia quarterback Major Harris.

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Major Harris is not bad. You've You've thrown some stinkers

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:31.240
<v Speaker 2>out there. It was gonna I have as a as

0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:33.840
<v Speaker 2>a Californian, I was gonna go with Harris Ranch, which

0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:34.399
<v Speaker 2>is a booie.

0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:36.760
<v Speaker 1>That's better. That's better. Yeah.

0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:38.560
<v Speaker 2>The only thing I don't like about that is it's

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:40.840
<v Speaker 2>like a cattle ranch and players most certainly are not

0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:41.680
<v Speaker 2>pieces of meat.

0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:43.880
<v Speaker 1>So that's the difficulty.

0:18:44.080 --> 0:18:48.960
<v Speaker 2>But if we can ignore that problematic aspect, I Harris

0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Ranch is thriving Harris Ranch.

0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:54.119
<v Speaker 1>So they're gonna run, They're gonna be really good. On offense.

0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:56.880
<v Speaker 1>They've got something like seven quote unquote starters back again

0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:59.960
<v Speaker 1>in quotes air quotes because most everyone on the team

0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:05.479
<v Speaker 1>got an experience from the year prior. Yep. The question

0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:08.080
<v Speaker 1>for me is I guess on defense if I have

0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:11.840
<v Speaker 1>one mm hm, because really just another embarrassment or riches

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:15.639
<v Speaker 1>back there. The younger guys did see action a year ago,

0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:19.600
<v Speaker 1>so I'm excited to see veterans like ray Kwan Davis

0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:22.159
<v Speaker 1>along the line, but I'm also pumped for younger guys

0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:25.879
<v Speaker 1>like Dylan Moses at linebacker, who is going to be

0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:27.680
<v Speaker 1>a full time starter this year, and I think he's

0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:31.680
<v Speaker 1>going to be a tank. The biggest questions are probably

0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.320
<v Speaker 1>in the secondary, and generally Nick Saban does a pretty

0:19:34.320 --> 0:19:36.560
<v Speaker 1>good job shoring up that secondary well.

0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Starting with offense. Even starting above offense and defense, at

0:19:39.040 --> 0:19:42.719
<v Speaker 2>least in terms of structural organization hierarchy. This is a

0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:47.480
<v Speaker 2>new looking coaching staff. Yeah, this is Brian Dable leaves

0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:50.640
<v Speaker 2>after a year. Mike Loxley comes in as the full

0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.879
<v Speaker 2>time offensive coordinator with his co coordinator I believe is

0:19:53.960 --> 0:19:56.160
<v Speaker 2>Josh Gattis, who comes in from Penn State and State

0:19:56.280 --> 0:19:58.840
<v Speaker 2>long time. You know, the receivers of Penn State have

0:19:58.840 --> 0:20:01.040
<v Speaker 2>been excellent these past few year, so you can assume

0:20:01.280 --> 0:20:03.440
<v Speaker 2>the very least Josh gattis in that passing game. We'll

0:20:03.520 --> 0:20:08.119
<v Speaker 2>keep going even without Calvin Ridley. Defensively, Jeremy Pruitt, in

0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:11.040
<v Speaker 2>obviously a high profile move, takes the head job at Tennessee,

0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:16.879
<v Speaker 2>and in slide sort of, Tosh Lupoy. Interestingly enough, Tosh

0:20:16.920 --> 0:20:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Lupoy and Mike Losley like three years ago, were analysts. Yeah,

0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:25.600
<v Speaker 2>Tosh Lupoy situation from cal gets messed up. He leaves,

0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:31.400
<v Speaker 2>and Mike Loxley obviously after not succeeding as a coordinator

0:20:31.440 --> 0:20:34.760
<v Speaker 2>and head coach, he slides in as an analyst. Now

0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:37.560
<v Speaker 2>these guys have worked their way up to coordinator and

0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:39.760
<v Speaker 2>then a new defensive line coach, maybe the best one

0:20:39.800 --> 0:20:42.600
<v Speaker 2>in the country in Craig Kuligowski comes from Miami via

0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:47.840
<v Speaker 2>Miami via Missouri whatever, Missouri via Miami, and it's just

0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:50.640
<v Speaker 2>it's a new look up and down this coaching staff.

0:20:51.000 --> 0:20:54.600
<v Speaker 2>So couple that with yes, a ton of offensive experience,

0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:58.639
<v Speaker 2>offensive experience up front. Jonah Williams has started forever now

0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:02.200
<v Speaker 2>at left tackle. Receiver is somewhat new without Calvin Ridley,

0:21:02.240 --> 0:21:04.760
<v Speaker 2>but they'll be fine there. Running back is stupid how

0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:07.720
<v Speaker 2>good it's going to be. And this is weird to say.

0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Damien Harris was really really good last year and almost

0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:16.440
<v Speaker 2>feels forgotten because we just sort of assumed he would

0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:19.080
<v Speaker 2>leave when when eligible, but decided to come back and like,

0:21:19.080 --> 0:21:22.239
<v Speaker 2>oh yeah, Damien Harris is still there. Naj Harris, I

0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:26.760
<v Speaker 2>believe will become somebody that when you see him run,

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 2>there are certain guys who are like, oh wow, he's

0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:31.960
<v Speaker 2>excellent Naj Harris. Maybe somebody are like, what are you

0:21:32.000 --> 0:21:36.560
<v Speaker 2>supposed to do? What do you He's impossible? So that

0:21:36.720 --> 0:21:40.760
<v Speaker 2>is that must be nice. And then you know two

0:21:40.800 --> 0:21:42.639
<v Speaker 2>is probably going to start if I had to guess,

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:46.639
<v Speaker 2>and he his ceiling is incredibly high because of his

0:21:46.800 --> 0:21:51.600
<v Speaker 2>arm and his awareness, and kahonis I don't know, but

0:21:51.760 --> 0:22:00.359
<v Speaker 2>sure feels macumin coonis and defensively, I think I disagree

0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.320
<v Speaker 2>with you a little bit, both just on a granular level,

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:06.480
<v Speaker 2>not like big picture. There's a lot of holes to

0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:11.240
<v Speaker 2>fill kinds defense, and I like linebacker a lot because

0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:13.080
<v Speaker 2>they dealt with injuries at the end of last year,

0:22:13.320 --> 0:22:16.040
<v Speaker 2>so a lot of guys rotated in and have experience

0:22:16.200 --> 0:22:19.639
<v Speaker 2>up front. You know, DeShawn han Deron Pain. These guys

0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:23.399
<v Speaker 2>contributed for so long, and I don't think in the

0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:26.520
<v Speaker 2>same way that those guys were established names, you know,

0:22:26.600 --> 0:22:29.480
<v Speaker 2>Raykwon Davis, is that there are other guys in that

0:22:29.560 --> 0:22:32.720
<v Speaker 2>way ready to step in and immediately. The will by

0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:36.240
<v Speaker 2>week four or something like that. But I think early

0:22:36.280 --> 0:22:38.639
<v Speaker 2>on you might see some growing pains. They're gonna kill everybody,

0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:42.840
<v Speaker 2>but growing pains minebackers great. As we agree. Defensive back

0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:46.800
<v Speaker 2>we agree again. It's it's at a point where there

0:22:46.840 --> 0:22:49.359
<v Speaker 2>isn't that one or two names. You're like, yes, they

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:51.320
<v Speaker 2>have to replace a lot, but they still have Minca,

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:52.120
<v Speaker 2>they still have Marvel.

0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:54.800
<v Speaker 1>There's not a Minca back there this year, right.

0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:59.960
<v Speaker 2>So they'll be fine. They've recruited crazy Well, Patrick's certain

0:23:00.000 --> 0:23:02.679
<v Speaker 2>and Junior, the best corner in the country steps in

0:23:02.720 --> 0:23:04.960
<v Speaker 2>and should get into a rotation of some kind just

0:23:05.000 --> 0:23:07.320
<v Speaker 2>because they're gonna beating teams thirty five to three.

0:23:07.480 --> 0:23:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Also maybe the national champion of making you and I

0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:12.320
<v Speaker 1>feel old knowing that gosh, he's a Jewie.

0:23:12.400 --> 0:23:14.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, we've got some other Yeah, there are other

0:23:14.200 --> 0:23:18.400
<v Speaker 2>candidates right now. I think Auburn's receivers coach is Cody Burns,

0:23:19.119 --> 0:23:24.080
<v Speaker 2>which oo okay, but I am not terribly worried about

0:23:24.119 --> 0:23:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Alabama in a shocking, shocking turn of events. I do

0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:30.600
<v Speaker 2>think the most difficult game will be the Iron Bowl

0:23:30.640 --> 0:23:34.120
<v Speaker 2>because of how much talented beef Auburn has on both

0:23:34.160 --> 0:23:35.919
<v Speaker 2>sides of the ball. And you know, may have the

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:39.440
<v Speaker 2>best quarterback in the in the conference in Jared Stidham

0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:41.560
<v Speaker 2>going to Death Valley, but it's after a bye. They

0:23:41.600 --> 0:23:43.320
<v Speaker 2>both have a bye the week before. That's going to

0:23:43.359 --> 0:23:49.320
<v Speaker 2>be tricky. But in terms of unexpected trip ups, so

0:23:49.440 --> 0:23:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Auburn it would be an expected one. LSU less expected.

0:23:53.640 --> 0:23:57.160
<v Speaker 2>Mississippi State to me, is is probably the trickiest one,

0:23:57.240 --> 0:24:01.880
<v Speaker 2>just because of they've recruited pretty well. They gave them

0:24:01.920 --> 0:24:04.840
<v Speaker 2>all they could handle last year, and it's a week

0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:09.760
<v Speaker 2>after that LSU game, So give me something there's something

0:24:09.840 --> 0:24:13.920
<v Speaker 2>unexpected about and wild CARDI about Joe moorehead and Starkville.

0:24:14.000 --> 0:24:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Give me a rec give me a final final win total. Here,

0:24:20.200 --> 0:24:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I say twelve and zero. Really going out in a limb.

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I say twelve and oh we got to move on.

0:24:25.800 --> 0:24:27.160
<v Speaker 1>We got to talk about all these other teams too.

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:28.480
<v Speaker 2>I know, I know, Okay, I'm going to say ten

0:24:28.520 --> 0:24:28.800
<v Speaker 2>and two.

0:24:29.320 --> 0:24:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Wow. Yeah, it's a hot take, right there. Take aaru.

0:24:33.520 --> 0:24:37.360
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's go. You mentioned the Iron Bowl. Now

0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:40.359
<v Speaker 1>that we've given Alabama their fair shake. They were the

0:24:40.520 --> 0:24:43.480
<v Speaker 1>national champion a year ago. Don't defend it. I'm not

0:24:43.560 --> 0:24:46.480
<v Speaker 1>defending it. I am defending it. Sure, I'm owning it.

0:24:46.960 --> 0:24:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Whatever Auburn. Auburn went nine and three a year ago.

0:24:52.880 --> 0:24:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I am torn on Auburn this year because there are

0:24:56.600 --> 0:25:01.440
<v Speaker 1>more things about this team that I like then dislike.

0:25:02.119 --> 0:25:05.399
<v Speaker 1>But the things that I dislike are really pretty big things.

0:25:05.880 --> 0:25:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Do you feel the same.

0:25:09.160 --> 0:25:12.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's nothing that I that worries me to a

0:25:12.480 --> 0:25:15.679
<v Speaker 2>crazy degree. I'm not as torn as you are.

0:25:15.800 --> 0:25:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Ti.

0:25:17.600 --> 0:25:19.920
<v Speaker 2>I thought I saw a man brought to life. Yeah,

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:22.119
<v Speaker 2>he was warm, he came around like he was dignified.

0:25:22.200 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 1>Sure, well, Natalie and Bruley up in here. Sure, I look.

0:25:25.800 --> 0:25:28.920
<v Speaker 1>I feel good about Auburn because the defense is seven

0:25:28.960 --> 0:25:31.680
<v Speaker 1>guys back and they're loaded, especially along the line. Kevin

0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Steele's gonna have them all tuned up. This will probably

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:37.560
<v Speaker 1>be one of the better defenses in the country. Oh yeah,

0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:40.440
<v Speaker 1>and I also feel really good about Jared Stidham because

0:25:40.480 --> 0:25:42.960
<v Speaker 1>he's back along with like his top five wide receivers

0:25:42.960 --> 0:25:46.160
<v Speaker 1>from a year ago, but two of them are hurt. Yeah,

0:25:46.200 --> 0:25:48.800
<v Speaker 1>and I want to talk about that. Actually, Okay, you

0:25:48.800 --> 0:25:50.840
<v Speaker 1>know we've been doing these spots where we talk about

0:25:50.920 --> 0:25:53.479
<v Speaker 1>the athletic and what the athletic brings to the table

0:25:53.520 --> 0:25:54.959
<v Speaker 1>and how everyone should sign up.

0:25:55.000 --> 0:25:57.320
<v Speaker 2>But I am not torn about the athletic.

0:25:57.440 --> 0:25:59.560
<v Speaker 1>No, I'm not either. I wanted to call out something

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:04.200
<v Speaker 1>specific that I saw from Justin Ferguson over at the athletic.

0:26:04.280 --> 0:26:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Did you read this about Auburn's depth at wide receiver,

0:26:09.560 --> 0:26:13.000
<v Speaker 1>the roles each guy can play within the malson offense.

0:26:13.560 --> 0:26:16.200
<v Speaker 1>You see it's titled here. I got the title, no Stove,

0:26:16.320 --> 0:26:20.600
<v Speaker 1>no Hastings, no problem. How Auburn can replace the injured

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:25.200
<v Speaker 1>receiver duo and not miss a beat. Yeah, I wanted

0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:28.560
<v Speaker 1>to I wanted to call this out because you know,

0:26:28.600 --> 0:26:31.199
<v Speaker 1>you and I were researching every team in college football,

0:26:31.200 --> 0:26:33.520
<v Speaker 1>every Power five team at least in college football to

0:26:33.600 --> 0:26:37.760
<v Speaker 1>a pretty good degree. And there are only so many

0:26:37.800 --> 0:26:41.280
<v Speaker 1>magazines that you can go through, only so many web

0:26:41.359 --> 0:26:42.959
<v Speaker 1>previews that you can skim.

0:26:43.040 --> 0:26:45.440
<v Speaker 2>And they're printed in like May or June. Right, they're

0:26:45.480 --> 0:26:48.440
<v Speaker 2>printed in miss fairly updated. Yeah, there are.

0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Only so many you can look through, and really you're

0:26:51.240 --> 0:26:55.959
<v Speaker 1>not able to get a good idea of true context

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:59.119
<v Speaker 1>for what is going on within a system. What mister

0:26:59.200 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Ferguson did, he was really useful to me as someone

0:27:03.960 --> 0:27:06.040
<v Speaker 1>who has to go and record and talk about these

0:27:06.040 --> 0:27:10.840
<v Speaker 1>teams knowledgeably. He went like with a microscope and just

0:27:11.040 --> 0:27:14.920
<v Speaker 1>dove in on what we're looking at here at a

0:27:14.960 --> 0:27:19.879
<v Speaker 1>position group, how that position group affects the larger offense

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:23.400
<v Speaker 1>at Auburn. I found this just as a fan and

0:27:23.440 --> 0:27:25.199
<v Speaker 1>as someone who has to talk about these or at

0:27:25.280 --> 0:27:28.280
<v Speaker 1>least act like I know what I'm talking about these teams.

0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:32.680
<v Speaker 1>This to me was genuinely interesting and useful. Yeah.

0:27:32.720 --> 0:27:35.080
<v Speaker 2>I so, First of all, they are only like fourteen

0:27:35.200 --> 0:27:38.040
<v Speaker 2>national college football podcasters, right, and I think all of

0:27:38.119 --> 0:27:40.200
<v Speaker 2>us already subscribe to the Athletic so we don't need

0:27:40.240 --> 0:27:42.879
<v Speaker 2>to sell the national college football podcasters.

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:44.480
<v Speaker 1>But I am.

0:27:44.800 --> 0:27:46.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm a big fan of the fact that we can

0:27:46.720 --> 0:27:49.159
<v Speaker 2>look at this and an Auburn fan knows this, and

0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:51.520
<v Speaker 2>an Auburn fan already is probably on the athletic and

0:27:51.560 --> 0:27:53.560
<v Speaker 2>off he or she isn't the athletic dot com slash

0:27:53.560 --> 0:27:55.760
<v Speaker 2>solid verbal for two ninety nine a month, forty percent

0:27:55.800 --> 0:27:59.639
<v Speaker 2>off now, No. The interesting thing to me about this

0:27:59.840 --> 0:28:03.520
<v Speaker 2>is it provides context. Like you said, and so Eli

0:28:03.560 --> 0:28:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Stove and Will Hastings get hurt over spring acl injuries,

0:28:06.640 --> 0:28:08.919
<v Speaker 2>and Auburn may have the best quarterback in the SEC

0:28:09.040 --> 0:28:11.720
<v Speaker 2>and Jared Stidham, but you're only as good as the

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:15.240
<v Speaker 2>guys catching your passes. And we know about Ryan Davis,

0:28:15.280 --> 0:28:18.679
<v Speaker 2>we know they've recruited well. But the fact is, you

0:28:18.720 --> 0:28:21.639
<v Speaker 2>can read a preview. You can go to a local

0:28:21.680 --> 0:28:25.199
<v Speaker 2>newspaper site and be inundated with ads for Dave Davis Dental.

0:28:26.200 --> 0:28:29.119
<v Speaker 2>But I'm getting quotes from Ryan Davis about white lightning,

0:28:29.200 --> 0:28:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Will Hastings, I'm getting quotes about how every guys are

0:28:32.680 --> 0:28:35.760
<v Speaker 2>going to be used on the ground, reporting in a

0:28:35.920 --> 0:28:40.560
<v Speaker 2>clean way. It was interesting to read. And furthermore, because

0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:43.720
<v Speaker 2>of reading this I'm a little bit higher on Auburn

0:28:43.760 --> 0:28:48.440
<v Speaker 2>than I was before. This is just incredible, just a

0:28:48.480 --> 0:28:51.920
<v Speaker 2>little bit higher because I like Auburn at quarterback obviously,

0:28:52.280 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I like how much they return up front. I believe

0:28:56.280 --> 0:29:00.680
<v Speaker 2>in Cam Martin and the still green, but missing running

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:03.760
<v Speaker 2>backs behind him. The defense is absurd to me. The

0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:07.239
<v Speaker 2>big question was, is there going to be you know,

0:29:07.280 --> 0:29:10.760
<v Speaker 2>a tipped ball that changes the course of a game,

0:29:11.200 --> 0:29:13.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, a receiver offer receiver's hands or something like that.

0:29:13.840 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 1>So the fact is, and.

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't even really matter that it's Auburn, it could

0:29:18.640 --> 0:29:20.720
<v Speaker 2>be any of these schools that are that have beat

0:29:20.720 --> 0:29:24.360
<v Speaker 2>writers on the athletic. The fact is, it's just to

0:29:24.480 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 2>find information if you're just curious. It's just a slog,

0:29:29.800 --> 0:29:32.840
<v Speaker 2>and to go to the athletic is just it's two seconds.

0:29:32.880 --> 0:29:34.840
<v Speaker 2>It's clean. You read it on the site, you read

0:29:34.840 --> 0:29:35.960
<v Speaker 2>it on the app, and you're on your way.

0:29:36.040 --> 0:29:38.160
<v Speaker 1>I sat up in my chair. Here's here's the line

0:29:38.160 --> 0:29:41.920
<v Speaker 1>that really got me. Yeah. In Malzon's offense, positions are

0:29:41.960 --> 0:29:46.920
<v Speaker 1>given a number. For example, one is the quarterback, two

0:29:47.040 --> 0:29:50.880
<v Speaker 1>is the flanker, and nine is the split end. I

0:29:50.920 --> 0:29:54.120
<v Speaker 1>did not know any of that, Like, oh, it's really

0:29:54.160 --> 0:29:57.920
<v Speaker 1>good for nerding out. I love that, So we would

0:29:57.960 --> 0:30:00.920
<v Speaker 1>encourage everyone to go out to the Athletic dot slash

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Solid Verbal. The fort off deal is still in play.

0:30:06.800 --> 0:30:10.000
<v Speaker 1>To ninety a month for the first year going out

0:30:10.040 --> 0:30:13.920
<v Speaker 1>to the Athletic dot Com slash Solid Verbal sign up,

0:30:14.160 --> 0:30:16.840
<v Speaker 1>join the party. Dan and I are ready on the bandwagon.

0:30:16.880 --> 0:30:19.560
<v Speaker 1>We've been telling all of our friends, all of over ballers,

0:30:20.360 --> 0:30:24.280
<v Speaker 1>trust us. We wouldn't lie to you on this front

<v Speaker 1>because we value good information as it relates to college

0:30:27.160 --> 0:30:31.600
<v Speaker 1>football at least. And yeah, pretty cool. You'll wonder.

0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:34.400
<v Speaker 2>You will wonder how you were a fan without it.

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:37.600
<v Speaker 1>So there you go. The Athletic dot Com slash soliverbal

0:30:37.640 --> 0:30:40.160
<v Speaker 1>to ninety nine a month. That's forty percent off your

0:30:40.160 --> 0:30:41.520
<v Speaker 1>first year subscription check out.

0:30:41.520 --> 0:30:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh hurry, pause the show and do it right now,

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:44.120
<v Speaker 2>don't waste time.

0:30:45.200 --> 0:30:47.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't feel good about Auburn because of the schedule

0:30:47.640 --> 0:30:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and because I have real questions about four new starters

0:30:51.200 --> 0:30:53.240
<v Speaker 1>on the offensive line in the SEC.

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:55.720
<v Speaker 2>That's a problem there, but there is there's a lot

0:30:55.720 --> 0:30:58.520
<v Speaker 2>of experience there too. They were blowing teams out last

0:30:58.600 --> 0:31:00.720
<v Speaker 2>year and there was a lot of rotation. I feel

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:01.760
<v Speaker 2>better about them than you do.

0:31:01.920 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 1>That is all fair. Here are the teams that Auburn

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:11.960
<v Speaker 1>must play. Okay, they've got three top five teams on

0:31:12.000 --> 0:31:14.880
<v Speaker 1>the schedule. None of them are at home. Well, yeah,

0:31:14.920 --> 0:31:18.400
<v Speaker 1>that's tough. That is tough. They got Washington neutral site

0:31:18.400 --> 0:31:21.880
<v Speaker 1>game Week one. Oo. They've got Georgia later in the

0:31:21.960 --> 0:31:23.960
<v Speaker 1>year on the road. They've got Bama later in the

0:31:24.000 --> 0:31:27.040
<v Speaker 1>year on the road. If Auburn were to go like

0:31:27.280 --> 0:31:30.600
<v Speaker 1>two and three over that stretch, I don't know if

0:31:30.600 --> 0:31:33.280
<v Speaker 1>they win the SEC, but they're in the top ten.

0:31:34.280 --> 0:31:37.320
<v Speaker 1>They're a top ten caliber team if they're beaten two

0:31:37.320 --> 0:31:39.960
<v Speaker 1>of those three. There's also a game at the beginning

0:31:40.000 --> 0:31:43.600
<v Speaker 1>of October which will sort of build to our Mississippi

0:31:43.600 --> 0:31:47.720
<v Speaker 1>State capsule next but on the road in Starkville beginning

0:31:47.760 --> 0:31:51.080
<v Speaker 1>of October, to me, strikes me as potentially tricky.

0:31:53.040 --> 0:31:55.240
<v Speaker 2>I would say, so, it's always tricky to go to Starkville.

0:31:55.800 --> 0:31:58.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm feeling nine or ten wins for this Auburn team.

0:31:58.200 --> 0:32:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty high on them to the degree that I

0:32:01.480 --> 0:32:03.840
<v Speaker 1>can be for nine or ten wins with that schedule.

0:32:04.560 --> 0:32:06.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's a hell of an opener. The good thing is,

0:32:07.400 --> 0:32:09.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't think we'll see what textas A and M.

0:32:09.680 --> 0:32:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Looks like ole Miss is going to be tricky just

0:32:11.960 --> 0:32:14.480
<v Speaker 2>because they're going to be a wild card throw the

0:32:14.520 --> 0:32:16.840
<v Speaker 2>ball constantly, put up a ton of points in yards,

0:32:16.880 --> 0:32:19.719
<v Speaker 2>but give up a ton of points and yards. The

0:32:19.760 --> 0:32:23.200
<v Speaker 2>back half of that schedule is definitely trickier and as

0:32:23.240 --> 0:32:25.240
<v Speaker 2>weird as it is to start out with Washington get

0:32:25.280 --> 0:32:27.760
<v Speaker 2>LSU in week three for Auburn, and they generally do

0:32:27.760 --> 0:32:29.000
<v Speaker 2>play LSU early.

0:32:28.800 --> 0:32:28.960
<v Speaker 1>But.

0:32:30.480 --> 0:32:33.720
<v Speaker 2>It's not that heavy, and that Mississippi State game on

0:32:33.760 --> 0:32:37.520
<v Speaker 2>the road comes after Southern Miss and before Tennessee at home,

0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:40.960
<v Speaker 2>so it's not surrounded by anything crazy difficult. We expect

0:32:41.000 --> 0:32:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Tennessee to eventually improve into something formidable, but by October thirteenth.

0:32:45.880 --> 0:32:46.600
<v Speaker 1>That's tough.

0:32:47.200 --> 0:32:50.400
<v Speaker 2>The back half of that schedule, that's where it becomes,

0:32:50.880 --> 0:32:53.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, stylistically, a lot of differences. Ole Miss can

0:32:53.720 --> 0:32:56.120
<v Speaker 2>play up tempo texts. A and M is a mystery.

0:32:56.120 --> 0:32:58.280
<v Speaker 2>We don't think they're going to be a blurred offense.

0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:01.920
<v Speaker 2>And then they go to Jor in their cross division rivalry,

0:33:02.200 --> 0:33:05.760
<v Speaker 2>and then two weeks later going to Bama, to Georgia

0:33:05.760 --> 0:33:09.280
<v Speaker 2>and to Bama in a what two week span? Essentially,

0:33:09.480 --> 0:33:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah about that?

0:33:12.600 --> 0:33:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Yea, So it's.

0:33:15.080 --> 0:33:20.760
<v Speaker 2>I have them at Yeah, probably ten and two. But

0:33:20.840 --> 0:33:23.360
<v Speaker 2>there's this weird down year thing about Auburn that I

0:33:23.360 --> 0:33:26.400
<v Speaker 2>don't that I'm never fully on board with. They generally

0:33:26.840 --> 0:33:31.800
<v Speaker 2>only lose to really really good teams. But man, going

0:33:31.840 --> 0:33:34.800
<v Speaker 2>on the road getting none of these teams, it's tough

0:33:34.840 --> 0:33:38.800
<v Speaker 2>on the planes. Yeah, I think I like Washington a

0:33:38.960 --> 0:33:41.760
<v Speaker 2>little bit because of the Chris Peterson factor and how

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:45.200
<v Speaker 2>slow Gus Melson has started out some septembers. If you

0:33:45.200 --> 0:33:49.000
<v Speaker 2>remember the Clemson game last year, not particularly good for

0:33:49.040 --> 0:33:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Auburn early. They're more of a grower than a show er. Tie.

0:33:52.960 --> 0:33:56.920
<v Speaker 1>So I'm gonna say ten and two. All right, it's

0:33:56.920 --> 0:34:01.920
<v Speaker 1>still pretty damn good. It's excellent. Well, let's go to

0:34:01.960 --> 0:34:05.440
<v Speaker 1>Mississippi State. Then Mississippi State went eight and four. Their

0:34:05.480 --> 0:34:08.680
<v Speaker 1>coach left, Dan Mullen left to go over to Florida.

0:34:09.040 --> 0:34:12.120
<v Speaker 1>They made the call to bring over friend of the pod,

0:34:13.320 --> 0:34:17.840
<v Speaker 1>former Penn State offensive coordinator, former Fordham head football coach,

0:34:18.440 --> 0:34:23.600
<v Speaker 1>the one the only Joe moorehead Jomo comes into a

0:34:23.640 --> 0:34:26.680
<v Speaker 1>situation where he's got seventeen starters back from a year ago.

0:34:27.520 --> 0:34:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Don't know how much that matters because he is changing

0:34:30.800 --> 0:34:36.120
<v Speaker 1>up the scheme. However, it does help to have some

0:34:36.320 --> 0:34:40.560
<v Speaker 1>degree of chemistry coming back. Almost the entire offense is back,

0:34:40.600 --> 0:34:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and that includes Nick Fitzgerald. Nick Fitzgerald, I've talked about

0:34:44.560 --> 0:34:47.759
<v Speaker 1>him before. He is a bowling ball with eyes. He

0:34:47.920 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 1>is six' five two thirty ran for almost one thousand

0:34:52.000 --> 0:34:55.080
<v Speaker 1>yards last year and had fourteen touchdowns through for fifteen

0:34:55.160 --> 0:34:58.440
<v Speaker 1>more of. Them he's Got Aris williams in the backfield with.

0:34:58.520 --> 0:35:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Him he ran for eleven hundred. Yard he's also. Back,

0:35:02.480 --> 0:35:05.480
<v Speaker 1>really the only losses on offense are a wide receiver

0:35:05.600 --> 0:35:08.560
<v Speaker 1>and a, tackle AND i feel pretty good about, that

0:35:09.280 --> 0:35:11.680
<v Speaker 1>knowing WHAT i know About Joe. Moore Head, DAN i

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:15.759
<v Speaker 1>know you're really high On Mississippi state as. Well how

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:16.920
<v Speaker 1>high are you On Mississippi?

0:35:16.960 --> 0:35:20.160
<v Speaker 2>STATE i am what's the guy who's saying she's so?

0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:21.760
<v Speaker 1>High? Hi Pal? Bachman?

0:35:22.239 --> 0:35:26.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh thank you so, yeah BECAUSE i do Think Mississippi

0:35:26.480 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 2>state is so. Lovely, okay couple of Things i'm going

0:35:30.120 --> 0:35:33.840
<v Speaker 2>to challenge you, on Please, nick? Please Nick fitzgerald physically,

0:35:33.920 --> 0:35:37.520
<v Speaker 2>TALENTED i would, argue not the greatest year through the,

0:35:37.560 --> 0:35:40.640
<v Speaker 2>air and now he's coming off a pretty horrific broken.

0:35:40.640 --> 0:35:41.960
<v Speaker 1>Ankle that's.

0:35:42.000 --> 0:35:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Fair this is all checking, out and it's not video

0:35:44.719 --> 0:35:46.520
<v Speaker 2>game football where he's, like, well he's out six, weeks

0:35:46.520 --> 0:35:46.799
<v Speaker 2>then he's.

0:35:46.800 --> 0:35:47.359
<v Speaker 1>Back he's.

0:35:47.360 --> 0:35:52.880
<v Speaker 2>GREAT i think there are going to be situations where

0:35:53.480 --> 0:35:56.480
<v Speaker 2>he's not his full athletic. Self Eric williams is probably

0:35:56.480 --> 0:35:59.279
<v Speaker 2>the most underrated running back in this. CONFERENCE i like

0:35:59.360 --> 0:36:02.239
<v Speaker 2>them a lot on, defense although they gave up some

0:36:02.239 --> 0:36:05.320
<v Speaker 2>passing yardage last. Year so if they can get to the,

0:36:05.360 --> 0:36:07.160
<v Speaker 2>quarterback which they should be able to do at like

0:36:07.160 --> 0:36:10.040
<v Speaker 2>a you, Know montes, Sweat Jeffrey simmons really strong on

0:36:10.080 --> 0:36:14.000
<v Speaker 2>the defensive, line the safeties are pretty. Good corner will

0:36:14.040 --> 0:36:18.160
<v Speaker 2>see and then it's ALSO tbd because we're going From

0:36:18.320 --> 0:36:21.839
<v Speaker 2>Todd grantham To Bob, shoop which boy have they been

0:36:21.840 --> 0:36:22.520
<v Speaker 2>a lot of places.

0:36:22.560 --> 0:36:24.880
<v Speaker 1>Recently so they're going.

0:36:24.719 --> 0:36:26.400
<v Speaker 2>To three four to four to. Three so there is,

0:36:26.719 --> 0:36:30.000
<v Speaker 2>novelty both in good and bad ways to this defense

0:36:30.160 --> 0:36:34.279
<v Speaker 2>and this. OFFENSE i, imagine much Like Penn state didn't

0:36:34.320 --> 0:36:37.120
<v Speaker 2>get going immediately With joe, moorehead there is going to

0:36:37.120 --> 0:36:40.800
<v Speaker 2>be a click. MOMENT i hope, it's you, know the

0:36:40.840 --> 0:36:45.240
<v Speaker 2>first play of the first, game but it takes some, time, communication, rhythm.

0:36:45.640 --> 0:36:48.920
<v Speaker 2>Familiarity they do start out with What steven F. Austin

0:36:49.320 --> 0:36:51.479
<v Speaker 2>it's a little bit. Tricky they go To Kansas. State

0:36:53.000 --> 0:36:55.200
<v Speaker 2>there could be some. Silencing it just it's going to

0:36:55.239 --> 0:36:57.200
<v Speaker 2>be a tricky. GAME i think they're better Than Kansas,

0:36:57.200 --> 0:37:01.120
<v Speaker 2>state But kansastate it's a ranked. Team the schedule that's such.

0:37:00.960 --> 0:37:03.320
<v Speaker 1>That week two game is quietly going to be a

0:37:03.360 --> 0:37:05.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of fun At Case state. Hopefully.

0:37:06.000 --> 0:37:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah the schedule is such though that in terms of look,

0:37:11.080 --> 0:37:16.239
<v Speaker 2>ahead letdowns and, sandwiches they have one why to care

0:37:16.239 --> 0:37:20.480
<v Speaker 2>About Missippi. State Dan mullen's coming. Back dan moll is

0:37:20.520 --> 0:37:24.360
<v Speaker 2>coming back early. On they HAVE lsu a week AFTER

0:37:24.800 --> 0:37:29.120
<v Speaker 2>lsu Has georgia and that's a week before The bama,

0:37:29.320 --> 0:37:32.760

<v Speaker 1>Moments.

0:40:09.200 --> 0:40:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Yep Ole miss has probably the best receiver in the

0:40:13.520 --> 0:40:14.799

<v Speaker 1>Miss, yeah it's AS tv shows. Go, yeah there are

0:40:31.680 --> 0:40:34.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna be some interesting subplots here Because Ole miss can't

0:40:34.520 --> 0:40:37.120
<v Speaker 1>go to a bowl this. Year now they cannot another

0:40:37.160 --> 0:40:39.839
<v Speaker 1>reason to. Care Ole miss can't go to a bull

0:40:40.320 --> 0:40:42.880
<v Speaker 1>leaving it all out, there And Matt luke has to

0:40:42.920 --> 0:40:46.160
<v Speaker 1>be of the mindset that he's constantly coaching for his.

0:40:46.280 --> 0:40:48.480
<v Speaker 1>JOB i know that they remove the interim, tag but

0:40:49.280 --> 0:40:51.360
<v Speaker 1>there is a chance that he's just like a bridge

0:40:51.360 --> 0:40:53.719
<v Speaker 1>coach to make it through this rough patch and then

0:40:53.719 --> 0:40:56.279
<v Speaker 1>they're going to go. Elsewhere so he's got something to.

0:40:56.320 --> 0:40:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Prove he's an Old miss. Guy they can't go to a.

0:40:59.040 --> 0:41:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Bowl receiving. Core is there three really good? Receivers? Oh

0:41:03.960 --> 0:41:07.680

<v Speaker 2>Esportually for coming in, halfway you, know just spot duty. Immediate,

0:41:12.719 --> 0:41:15.919
<v Speaker 2>yeah he's got four guys back on the, line WHICH

0:41:15.960 --> 0:41:19.839
<v Speaker 2>i think sets up a pretty nice year throwing the football, defensively,

0:41:19.880 --> 0:41:21.040
<v Speaker 2>though you're, right kind of a.

0:41:21.080 --> 0:41:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Mess gonna need some. Shootouts they're gonna need some shootouts

0:41:24.480 --> 0:41:25.799
<v Speaker 1>if they want to win football games this.

0:41:25.880 --> 0:41:29.239

0:41:48.960 --> 0:41:53.239
<v Speaker 1>One come and get your. Points they're AT. Lsu definitely

0:41:53.239 --> 0:41:53.440
<v Speaker 1>not a.

0:41:53.560 --> 0:41:58.200
<v Speaker 2>Rivalry definitely not a rivalry a week before LSU's schedule goes.

0:41:58.320 --> 0:42:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Crazy oh miss schedule is not that bad in terms

0:42:02.480 --> 0:42:04.279
<v Speaker 2>of back to back to. Backs they have the egg

0:42:04.320 --> 0:42:07.120
<v Speaker 2>ball at. Home they will and we've talked about this

0:42:07.160 --> 0:42:08.759
<v Speaker 2>for a couple of years. Now they could be one

0:42:08.760 --> 0:42:14.880
<v Speaker 2>Of america's most fun half. Teams and on that, note

0:42:15.080 --> 0:42:15.960
<v Speaker 2>they'll go six and.

0:42:15.920 --> 0:42:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Six six and. Six, yeah, yeah that feels about, right

0:42:21.600 --> 0:42:22.080
<v Speaker 1>feels about.

0:42:22.080 --> 0:42:26.280
<v Speaker 2>It there's not a lot of Depth and If jordan

0:42:26.400 --> 0:42:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Tom who goes, down It's matt Coral, corral WHO i

0:42:31.080 --> 0:42:33.600
<v Speaker 2>also committed to a bunch of. Schools like so many

0:42:33.640 --> 0:42:37.839
<v Speaker 2>of our favorite quarterbacks around the. Country so, YEAH i

0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:41.759
<v Speaker 2>think The philongo offense will be, fun but they feel

0:42:41.800 --> 0:42:43.480
<v Speaker 2>like one of those teams that as much as they

0:42:43.600 --> 0:42:45.080
<v Speaker 2>bring to the, table they also take.

0:42:45.120 --> 0:42:50.719
<v Speaker 1>Off let's go To. Arkansas hell, YEAH i wanted to

0:42:50.760 --> 0:42:53.960
<v Speaker 1>start with The. Hogs new Coach Chad morris comes over FROM.

0:42:54.120 --> 0:42:58.120
<v Speaker 1>Smu he's got seventeen guys back from a year. Ago

0:42:58.280 --> 0:43:03.719
<v Speaker 1>the schedule is rangely, good strangely, good at least in

0:43:03.800 --> 0:43:07.319
<v Speaker 1>terms of sec road, tilts because in terms of true road,

0:43:07.360 --> 0:43:12.080
<v Speaker 1>games they Got Auburn september twenty, second and then they're

0:43:12.120 --> 0:43:16.200
<v Speaker 1>not on the road again at all Until november seventeenth

0:43:16.239 --> 0:43:18.920
<v Speaker 1>At Mississippi state and then the following week there At.

0:43:18.920 --> 0:43:21.479
<v Speaker 2>Missouri but, yeah they do have a really like crazy long.

0:43:21.480 --> 0:43:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Stretch it's really. Strange there is a game In arlington

0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:28.080
<v Speaker 1>AGAINST a AND m at the end Of, september, right

0:43:28.200 --> 0:43:30.879
<v Speaker 1>and there's also a game Against Ole miss In Little

0:43:30.960 --> 0:43:34.680
<v Speaker 1>rock In, october which is like the seventieth anniversary of the.

0:43:34.719 --> 0:43:35.799
<v Speaker 1>STADIUM i can't remember, that.

0:43:35.840 --> 0:43:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Right but say they'll play In Little rock.

0:43:37.200 --> 0:43:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes, yeah so they're not like at home per se every,

0:43:41.760 --> 0:43:45.880
<v Speaker 1>game but in terms of true road, games it's slim

0:43:45.920 --> 0:43:51.080
<v Speaker 1>pickens out there and it is strangely. Workable on, OFFENSE

0:43:51.080 --> 0:43:53.320
<v Speaker 1>i got a lot, back AND i Think Chad morris

0:43:53.360 --> 0:43:54.880
<v Speaker 1>is going to have him played. Hard it will be

0:43:54.880 --> 0:43:57.320
<v Speaker 1>more wide open than it has been Under Brett, bilima

0:43:57.719 --> 0:43:59.719
<v Speaker 1>because that's just Who Chad. Morris, YEAH i mean They

0:44:00.120 --> 0:44:02.520
<v Speaker 1>arkansas did throw it a ton last. Year they, did,

0:44:02.880 --> 0:44:04.680
<v Speaker 1>absolutely but this is going to, BE i, think a

0:44:04.719 --> 0:44:07.600
<v Speaker 1>totally different, scheme more wide. Open if you're An arkansas,

0:44:07.680 --> 0:44:09.720
<v Speaker 1>fan if you're AN sec fan or just a college football,

0:44:09.719 --> 0:44:12.319
<v Speaker 1>fan you should care about that Because Chad morris has

0:44:12.400 --> 0:44:16.200
<v Speaker 1>coached really fun, offenses so there's something for. You and then,

0:44:16.239 --> 0:44:20.719
<v Speaker 1>DEFENSIVELY i don't know exactly what we're going to, get

0:44:20.760 --> 0:44:23.960
<v Speaker 1>but there is a lot, back including the top four

0:44:24.080 --> 0:44:27.560
<v Speaker 1>tacklers from twenty. Seventeen and then they also bring In

0:44:27.640 --> 0:44:29.640
<v Speaker 1>John chavis to get the house In, hooder WHICH i

0:44:29.680 --> 0:44:31.960
<v Speaker 1>feel like is Something i've said at least fifteen times

0:44:31.960 --> 0:44:34.800
<v Speaker 1>over the last ten. Years, hey bringing In John chavis

0:44:34.840 --> 0:44:37.719
<v Speaker 1>to put something in, Order but that to me would

0:44:37.760 --> 0:44:40.680
<v Speaker 1>seemingly indicate some level of improvement on that, defense and

0:44:40.719 --> 0:44:44.640
<v Speaker 1>that's much needed For arkansas because defensively they've been a.

0:44:44.520 --> 0:44:48.799
<v Speaker 2>Mess and that begs the question are you pumped about

0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:55.360
<v Speaker 2>twenty Eighteen John? Chavis maybe could be maybe if like you,

0:44:55.400 --> 0:45:01.040
<v Speaker 2>know who ties Dating Pam, Anderson like that's that's the,

0:45:01.120 --> 0:45:05.400
<v Speaker 2>question that's the. Problem hopefully maybe kind Of, YEAH i

0:45:05.400 --> 0:45:09.920
<v Speaker 2>could see it being. Interesting arkansas starts out with a

0:45:10.400 --> 0:45:13.759
<v Speaker 2>tricky ish non conference. Schedule they go To Colorado state

0:45:13.840 --> 0:45:17.719
<v Speaker 2>in that new stadium that kJ Carta Samuel's life, boom

0:45:19.080 --> 0:45:24.400
<v Speaker 2>and they Host Mason Fine Seth latrell Tricky North texas.

0:45:24.400 --> 0:45:28.960
<v Speaker 2>Team arkansas should win at least that second game Against North, texas.

0:45:28.600 --> 0:45:29.799
<v Speaker 1>But not a.

0:45:29.840 --> 0:45:36.200
<v Speaker 2>Walkover and you're, right the strangely nice stretch where they

0:45:36.200 --> 0:45:39.319
<v Speaker 2>don't have true road games and what is that like

0:45:39.960 --> 0:45:43.640
<v Speaker 2>Late september until Early november they really figured it all. Out,

0:45:43.840 --> 0:45:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah my big questions aside from twenty Eighteen John chavison

0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:52.720
<v Speaker 2>comparing him to a centerfold for whatever, REASON i regretted.

0:45:52.320 --> 0:45:53.440
<v Speaker 1>It immediately AFTER i did.

0:45:53.520 --> 0:45:58.840
<v Speaker 2>It Cole kelly fun to look, at but is he

0:45:58.920 --> 0:45:59.479
<v Speaker 2>actually good.

0:45:59.400 --> 0:45:59.799
<v Speaker 1>At throwing the?

0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Ball we don't know that part of, it right because

0:46:02.640 --> 0:46:05.200
<v Speaker 2>he's six four hundred and.

0:46:06.680 --> 0:46:10.319
<v Speaker 1>He is a. Tank what he's? Like what is he six'

0:46:10.480 --> 0:46:13.600
<v Speaker 1>eight like two? SIXTY five i think he might only be,

0:46:13.680 --> 0:46:15.560
<v Speaker 1>sixty seven but we can go with six' eight if. You,

0:46:15.600 --> 0:46:16.719
<v Speaker 1>want oh he is this year Is.

0:46:16.760 --> 0:46:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Brock osweiler he tite will be noted more than. Anybody

0:46:20.000 --> 0:46:24.120
<v Speaker 2>else he's Competing Against. Ty Story jared cornelius is back.

0:46:24.160 --> 0:46:27.839
<v Speaker 2>And healthy they have a couple of big losses on.

0:46:27.880 --> 0:46:31.080
<v Speaker 2>The Line frank ragnow was excellent last Year And all

0:46:31.120 --> 0:46:38.640
<v Speaker 2>american and. He's Gone but i'm strangely drawn To this. Arkansas,

0:46:38.719 --> 0:46:41.200
<v Speaker 2>TEAM yeah i know what. It is they don't have

0:46:41.200 --> 0:46:43.960
<v Speaker 2>a RUNNING back. I love they've got a couple receivers

0:46:44.000 --> 0:46:46.880
<v Speaker 2>who are. PRETTY good i think they could be ANOTHER

0:46:47.000 --> 0:46:51.160
<v Speaker 2>wild cardi. Type team but with what they bring back

0:46:51.200 --> 0:46:54.239
<v Speaker 2>on defense and what they don't have, On defense and

0:46:54.280 --> 0:46:57.000
<v Speaker 2>EVEN though i know there's, some fun little trappiness to,

0:46:57.040 --> 0:46:59.320

<v Speaker 1>from a POINT where lsu has a four way. Quarterback

0:50:27.280 --> 0:50:30.760
<v Speaker 1>battle just KNOWING where lsu has been at the quarterback

0:50:30.800 --> 0:50:33.279
<v Speaker 1>position the last couple, of years that does not leave

0:50:33.280 --> 0:50:36.640
<v Speaker 1>me feeling. Very confident. I'm sorry and then, beyond that

0:50:37.719 --> 0:50:43.040
<v Speaker 1>we've got an entirely. New backfield they're new. At receiver

0:50:43.719 --> 0:50:46.439
<v Speaker 1>there's a, brutal schedule by, the way with a ton

0:50:46.480 --> 0:50:49.319
<v Speaker 1>of pressure On ed orgeron to win. And, win now

0:50:49.360 --> 0:50:52.680
<v Speaker 1>listen to these neutral Psyche game week One, against Miami,

<v Speaker 1>and THEN at a and m to close out.

0:50:58.840 --> 0:51:02.520
<v Speaker 2>The year by the way that MY emmy lsu game

0:51:02.680 --> 0:51:04.839
<v Speaker 2>is sort of that it's. Always good by the way

0:51:04.920 --> 0:51:08.399
<v Speaker 2>to talk about visual memes. Out, loud yeah but it's

0:51:08.440 --> 0:51:11.800
<v Speaker 2>that sort of. Spider man i'm you hear me pointing

0:51:11.840 --> 0:51:16.799
<v Speaker 2>at each other because ooh dangerous, fast defense quarterback questions

0:51:17.800 --> 0:51:21.359
<v Speaker 2>a game Breaking Receiver jonathan Giles And. Amon richards WHO

0:51:21.440 --> 0:51:24.320
<v Speaker 2>am i talking? About that there's a lot, of similarities

0:51:24.800 --> 0:51:27.080
<v Speaker 2>and then you look at coaches and it stops.

0:51:27.480 --> 0:51:30.440
<v Speaker 1>SIMILARITIES end i didn't even Mention the, arkansas game by, The,

0:51:30.480 --> 0:51:35.360
<v Speaker 1>way yeah which. Terrifies ME so i am looking AT this.

0:51:35.560 --> 0:51:37.719
<v Speaker 1>Lsu team they're gonna be fine, on defense by. THE

0:51:37.719 --> 0:51:39.959
<v Speaker 1>way i think there'd be more. Than fine they're gonna

0:51:39.960 --> 0:51:41.640
<v Speaker 1>be fine. On you by, the way double. Dood, ALERT

0:51:42.760 --> 0:51:49.120
<v Speaker 1>whoa i improvised that and shut it off in, the

0:51:49.160 --> 0:51:51.879
<v Speaker 1>middle but double dood alert on Defense With, devin white

0:51:52.520 --> 0:51:55.440
<v Speaker 1>who had one hundred and thirty three tackles as a sophomore.

0:51:55.000 --> 0:51:57.799
<v Speaker 2>Last, year yeah he is the dude.

0:51:57.520 --> 0:51:59.240
<v Speaker 1>ACCORDING to i don't know if you SAW The espn

0:51:59.320 --> 0:52:01.960
<v Speaker 1>top fifty that they put. OUT there i DID not

0:52:02.800 --> 0:52:07.840
<v Speaker 1>espn rank the top fifty college, football Players And devin

0:52:07.880 --> 0:52:11.239
<v Speaker 1>white was. Twenty Seventh greedy williams a great nickname in,

0:52:11.280 --> 0:52:15.239
<v Speaker 1>college football especially for. A cornerback he Had six picks

0:52:15.239 --> 0:52:17.759
<v Speaker 1>a year ago as a red. Shirt freshman he's number

0:52:17.840 --> 0:52:20.960
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven on THAT same. Espn list they've got some

0:52:21.000 --> 0:52:24.320
<v Speaker 1>really high. Level talent the defense will be, really good.

0:52:24.640 --> 0:52:25.480
<v Speaker 1>No doubt did you see?

0:52:25.520 --> 0:52:26.839
<v Speaker 2>NUMBER eight i have it in front of me. Right

0:52:26.880 --> 0:52:27.479
<v Speaker 2>now who's?

0:52:27.560 --> 0:52:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Number Eight, Lowell Narcis, Lowell Narsys Lowell. Narsis, lowell oh It.

0:52:35.560 --> 0:52:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Is, Lowell okay lowell Narsis future.

0:52:39.719 --> 0:52:43.279
<v Speaker 1>Samford quarterback my hot take is that LSU's going six

0:52:43.320 --> 0:52:47.160
<v Speaker 1>and Six, and okay they're going to Lose, to Miami,

0:52:47.800 --> 0:52:50.480
<v Speaker 1>to Auburn, to Florida, To, georgia tobama and Then. To

0:52:50.560 --> 0:52:54.920
<v Speaker 1>arkansas those are your. Six losses oh that's my. Hot, TAKE.

0:52:56.239 --> 0:52:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah I mean lsu does Lose to arkansas sometimes every.

0:52:59.040 --> 0:53:01.719
<v Speaker 2>So often they're Just. Gonna arkansas that's just how the.

0:53:01.800 --> 0:53:05.960
<v Speaker 2>UNIVERSE works, i think what do, you say six? And

0:53:06.040 --> 0:53:08.399
<v Speaker 2>six six? AND six i think they can go seven.

0:53:08.440 --> 0:53:11.160
<v Speaker 2>AND five i think if we can find a way

0:53:12.080 --> 0:53:17.920
<v Speaker 2>to Dress ole miss offensive PLAYERS in, lsu uniforms AND

0:53:18.080 --> 0:53:21.239
<v Speaker 2>dress lsu defensive players And ole miss uniforms and just

0:53:21.520 --> 0:53:26.239
<v Speaker 2>figure out, a timeshare that's ideal. FOR everybody i am

0:53:26.280 --> 0:53:28.480
<v Speaker 2>NOT particularly i know that the offensive line is back

0:53:28.480 --> 0:53:31.160
<v Speaker 2>in a lot healthier than they were. LAST year i

0:53:31.360 --> 0:53:33.719
<v Speaker 2>really really like the Audition Of. JONATHAN giles i thought

0:53:33.719 --> 0:53:35.800
<v Speaker 2>he had some extraordinary Moments For, texas tech so he

0:53:35.840 --> 0:53:39.439
<v Speaker 2>comes in as a transfer. Up front, on defense there's

0:53:39.480 --> 0:53:43.360
<v Speaker 2>a ton to like about this defensive line and the

0:53:43.400 --> 0:53:45.640
<v Speaker 2>fact that this is now what year Three Under, dave

0:53:45.760 --> 0:53:49.919
<v Speaker 2>randa so more and more. Installation there their linebacking course

0:53:49.960 --> 0:53:52.359
<v Speaker 2>should be, very good their secondary should be very.

0:53:52.440 --> 0:53:57.399
<v Speaker 1>VERY good i.

0:53:55.840 --> 0:53:58.520
<v Speaker 2>When looking at, their, SCHEDULE though i think there is

0:53:58.560 --> 0:53:59.319
<v Speaker 2>something to what.

0:53:59.360 --> 0:54:00.239
<v Speaker 1>You're saying.

0:54:01.640 --> 0:54:03.920
<v Speaker 2>We have no Idea What joe burrow is going to

0:54:04.000 --> 0:54:08.000
<v Speaker 2>look like throwing Into the, miami defense Away From, baton

0:54:08.080 --> 0:54:12.680
<v Speaker 2>rouge Into the, auburn defense Into the, florida defense in,

0:54:12.719 --> 0:54:16.360
<v Speaker 2>the swamp Into the, georgia defense Into the. Bama defense

0:54:17.360 --> 0:54:19.880
<v Speaker 2>we know what he'll look like throwing Into the, arkansas

0:54:19.960 --> 0:54:23.279
<v Speaker 2>Defense because i've seen everybody and what they look like Throwing.

0:54:23.280 --> 0:54:28.120
<v Speaker 2>INTO texas A and m might have a. Pretty scale they're.

0:54:28.160 --> 0:54:31.239
<v Speaker 2>Finally experienced we'll get to them next up front and

0:54:31.280 --> 0:54:35.440
<v Speaker 2>everywhere on. That defense so What If joe burrow is

0:54:36.040 --> 0:54:38.480
<v Speaker 2>a backup quarterback like he, Has been what If he's

0:54:38.560 --> 0:54:39.400
<v Speaker 2>Joe Dirt.

0:54:39.600 --> 0:54:40.959
<v Speaker 1>Joey Burr's so.

0:54:42.520 --> 0:54:46.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm more seven, and five eight and four because of,

0:54:46.400 --> 0:54:50.880
<v Speaker 2>line playing because of, that defense but not a confident version.

0:54:50.920 --> 0:54:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Of that i'm hedging. Pretty, significantly yeah immediate losses to Me,

0:54:55.800 --> 0:55:01.799
<v Speaker 2>Are Auburn. Georgia obama Definitely that i'm writing off three.

0:55:01.840 --> 0:55:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Games immediately so THAT'S where i stand. Right now but

0:55:06.080 --> 0:55:08.040
<v Speaker 2>there's a lot to like on. That defense there's a.

0:55:08.080 --> 0:55:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Whole bunch you double duded it for. A.

0:55:09.880 --> 0:55:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Reason yeah they're very good. On defense they have some

0:55:13.320 --> 0:55:17.799
<v Speaker 1>really elite caliber players, on defense and that's always fun.

0:55:17.840 --> 0:55:20.000
<v Speaker 1>To watch that will keep them in games that, will

0:55:20.000 --> 0:55:23.920
<v Speaker 1>definitely most assuredly make my six and six prediction look

0:55:24.000 --> 0:55:25.839
<v Speaker 1>silly at some point when they go nine.

0:55:25.880 --> 0:55:28.560
<v Speaker 2>To, Three OKAY and I just i reminded myself by

0:55:28.560 --> 0:55:32.160
<v Speaker 2>saying dude but not actually issuing Adode Alert naj Harris.

0:55:32.200 --> 0:55:36.120
<v Speaker 2>FROM alabama I mean i fawned over. Him, already yeah

0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:40.000
<v Speaker 2>it's it's. Very boring and SO then i will double

0:55:40.080 --> 0:55:44.839
<v Speaker 2>it up, with ooh because you, double DUDED and i

0:55:44.920 --> 0:55:48.239

<v Speaker 1>article written Somewhere That jimbo fisher feels pretty good about

0:57:03.160 --> 0:57:05.600
<v Speaker 1>the state of both of. His lines i'd like, to.

0:57:05.640 --> 0:57:09.160
<v Speaker 2>Apologize Ty the magna cart was signed in, twelve fifteen not,

0:57:09.239 --> 0:57:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Fifteen twelve AND now i feel like.

0:57:11.080 --> 0:57:15.719
<v Speaker 1>An idiot, Close, enough, okay continue the defense is going

0:57:15.760 --> 0:57:18.080
<v Speaker 1>to get Better Because mike elko has a track record

0:57:18.160 --> 0:57:20.440
<v Speaker 1>for quick. Turnaround jobs he did a good Job, at

0:57:20.480 --> 0:57:23.400
<v Speaker 1>wake really good job At A Notre dame Bowling. Green

0:57:23.440 --> 0:57:26.280
<v Speaker 1>shure now he inherits a defense that is eight. Guys

0:57:26.320 --> 0:57:28.360
<v Speaker 1>back that gives him a really good. Starting point so

0:57:28.360 --> 0:57:31.200
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna better on. Defense too. M h those are

0:57:31.200 --> 0:57:34.200
<v Speaker 1>two really good reasons to feel good to care About

0:57:34.280 --> 0:57:35.960
<v Speaker 1>What jimbo fisher can DO at A.

0:57:36.080 --> 0:57:39.120
<v Speaker 2>And M pam anderson Out AS texas A and m.

0:57:39.160 --> 0:57:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Defensive coordinator that, Is.

0:57:40.560 --> 0:57:44.240
<v Speaker 1>RIGHT okay i do worry about the talent on, Offense,

0:57:44.280 --> 0:57:50.480
<v Speaker 1>though okay especially against the schedule that's really just. Complete

0:57:50.560 --> 0:57:54.280
<v Speaker 1>murder listen. To this they Play both Clemson, and bama And,

0:57:54.440 --> 0:57:56.920
<v Speaker 1>AT bama i, should say in the first month of,

0:57:56.960 --> 0:58:00.320
<v Speaker 1>the season within like, Two weeks they've got a Game At,

0:58:00.440 --> 0:58:04.200
<v Speaker 1>south carolina which is, no Picnic At, mississippi state which

0:58:04.200 --> 0:58:08.160
<v Speaker 1>are pretty, high on and Then. At auburn you could

0:58:08.240 --> 0:58:12.040
<v Speaker 1>really make a case those are five guaranteed losses. RIGHT There, I,

0:58:15.120 --> 0:58:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Clemson Bama, South, CAROLINA. Auburn, LSU yeah i wouldn't say,

0:58:23.120 --> 0:58:29.919
<v Speaker 1>guaranteed now tough though it is murder. It, Is yes

0:58:31.720 --> 0:58:32.000
<v Speaker 1>i'm not.

0:58:32.080 --> 0:58:35.200
<v Speaker 2>As concerned I've Seen trevion williams succeed on a pretty,

0:58:35.240 --> 0:58:39.640
<v Speaker 2>significant level albeit it was now two. Years Ago Losing

0:58:39.720 --> 0:58:42.720
<v Speaker 2>christian kirk is a. Big deal they've, recruited really really well,

0:58:42.760 --> 0:58:47.400
<v Speaker 2>at RECEIVER so i just assume at a certain point

0:58:47.520 --> 0:58:50.120
<v Speaker 2>this passing game be It with Kellen mond Er. NICK

0:58:50.160 --> 0:58:52.640
<v Speaker 2>starkle I Assume nick starkle is probably better Suited for,

0:58:52.760 --> 0:58:58.360
<v Speaker 2>jimbo's offense but. WE'LL see i assume receivers are going

0:58:58.360 --> 0:59:00.920
<v Speaker 2>to step up because they've recruited, too well not to

0:59:01.880 --> 0:59:06.520
<v Speaker 2>whoever's in at quarterback should have time behind. This line

0:59:06.720 --> 0:59:09.720
<v Speaker 2>i'm not a big believer in them early That that

0:59:09.800 --> 0:59:14.160
<v Speaker 2>clemson game feels like a, write off but it's what

0:59:14.240 --> 0:59:18.360
<v Speaker 2>It's At, kyle, Field. Right yep it's a difficult place.

0:59:18.360 --> 0:59:21.760
<v Speaker 2>To play this is an. Experienced defense they had a

0:59:21.800 --> 0:59:24.320
<v Speaker 2>couple at least two or three what defensive line, and

0:59:24.440 --> 0:59:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Back and i'm not ready to give Up On. Daylon

0:59:28.320 --> 0:59:32.720
<v Speaker 2>mack i'm. JUST not i think their secondary is. PRETTY

0:59:32.720 --> 0:59:35.560
<v Speaker 2>good i like. Their linebackers there's a ton of. Experience

0:59:35.560 --> 0:59:40.120
<v Speaker 2>there and to, Your Point mike elcho's. COACHING them i

0:59:40.160 --> 0:59:44.080
<v Speaker 2>expect this team to be more solid than they've been

0:59:44.160 --> 0:59:44.800
<v Speaker 2>these past couple.

0:59:44.840 --> 0:59:45.600
<v Speaker 1>OF years i would agree.

0:59:45.640 --> 0:59:48.320
<v Speaker 2>WITH that i think we'd always felt like we Were

0:59:48.320 --> 0:59:50.920
<v Speaker 2>DISCUSSING texas A, and, m, like man they're all freshmen, out,

0:59:50.920 --> 0:59:53.040
<v Speaker 2>there yeah and now they're all juniors.

0:59:53.080 --> 0:59:58.120
<v Speaker 1>And seniors they were always very, Combustible, too yeah, you

0:59:58.160 --> 1:00:00.919
<v Speaker 1>know and mister Six. AND oh i don't know if

1:00:00.920 --> 1:00:03.600
<v Speaker 1>it was the Way that kevin someone ran the team

1:00:03.880 --> 1:00:07.080
<v Speaker 1>or perhaps we're a bit shaded in our opinions After

1:00:07.080 --> 1:00:10.800
<v Speaker 1>The johnny, manzel era which was certainly a little, Bit

1:00:10.840 --> 1:00:14.840
<v Speaker 1>controversial but there always felt like there was a combustible

1:00:14.920 --> 1:00:18.280
<v Speaker 1>nature to what was being Built In. College STATION and

1:00:18.360 --> 1:00:20.080
<v Speaker 1>i think what we're going to get Now With jimbo

1:00:20.160 --> 1:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>fisher is really an evening out. Of that they're going

1:00:23.640 --> 1:00:26.800
<v Speaker 1>to be much much better just as a baseline unit

1:00:27.600 --> 1:00:29.960
<v Speaker 1>than we've seen over the course of the last. Three

1:00:30.000 --> 1:00:33.840
<v Speaker 1>years so that's good news moving FORWARD for A. And

1:00:33.960 --> 1:00:35.560
<v Speaker 1>m they're not going to get Rid Of jimbo fisher.

1:00:35.560 --> 1:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Anytime soon he's signed for. AN eternity i think he's

1:00:39.360 --> 1:00:41.160
<v Speaker 1>going to be really. Good, THERE oh, i agree he's.

1:00:41.200 --> 1:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>A quarterback i agree he may not get to seven wins,

1:00:44.560 --> 1:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>this year but he will get there. Before long THIS

1:00:47.960 --> 1:00:50.280
<v Speaker 1>much i can guarantee you as, a certainty and they

1:00:50.320 --> 1:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>will MAKE The sec west all the more difficult knowing

1:00:53.560 --> 1:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>that he's there and knowing what he's capable. Of building

1:00:56.760 --> 1:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>it just might not be. This year i'm going to

1:00:59.000 --> 1:01:00.520
<v Speaker 1>say eight. And four how? About? That, whoa?

1:01:01.240 --> 1:01:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah whoa how? About, that listen there's something to me

1:01:06.160 --> 1:01:08.920
<v Speaker 2>about having a what should be a pretty, good defense

1:01:09.280 --> 1:01:13.200
<v Speaker 2>a tough place, to play a home, field advantage really

1:01:13.240 --> 1:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>good recruiting these past.

1:01:14.440 --> 1:01:16.520
<v Speaker 1>FEW years i think.

1:01:16.400 --> 1:01:20.520
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be a situation where the tools were, always

1:01:20.520 --> 1:01:22.560
<v Speaker 2>there you just needed perhaps a more.

1:01:22.600 --> 1:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Skilled carpenter i'm gonna say seven. And, five okay seven,

1:01:27.240 --> 1:01:31.720
<v Speaker 1>And five so there, You, Go, Alabama Auburn, Mississippi STATE

1:01:31.800 --> 1:01:35.600
<v Speaker 1>texas A, And mlsu Arkansas and Ole miss the math.

1:01:35.720 --> 1:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Checks out don't, Bother. Checking dan we also have another

1:01:39.800 --> 1:01:43.400
<v Speaker 1>conference we need to discuss here very quickly on, The, Program, yes.

1:01:45.960 --> 1:01:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Ty will you please drop that stanky we but now

1:01:50.640 --> 1:01:54.440
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about The, fun belt The, Sun, belt yeah.

1:01:54.560 --> 1:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>So quickly The sun belt should be. Pretty fun there

1:01:59.280 --> 1:02:01.800
<v Speaker 2>are elements of most of these teams that have. Me

1:02:01.880 --> 1:02:06.720
<v Speaker 2>intrigued and if we're starting at, The Top troy trojans

1:02:06.760 --> 1:02:08.720
<v Speaker 2>are now without two guys who seem like they've been

1:02:08.760 --> 1:02:11.800
<v Speaker 2>there since nineteen, Ninety Seven brandon Silver's And. Jordan chun

1:02:12.000 --> 1:02:14.600
<v Speaker 2>but their offense will. Be fine last year's defense was

1:02:14.720 --> 1:02:17.160
<v Speaker 2>excellent and they it was like top fifteen in, the

1:02:17.160 --> 1:02:20.120
<v Speaker 2>country and they return a good amount of that and

1:02:20.160 --> 1:02:22.760
<v Speaker 2>it will be great and that should. Scare everybody it

1:02:22.800 --> 1:02:25.640
<v Speaker 2>should also scare People That neil brown is Still, In. Troy,

1:02:25.680 --> 1:02:29.880
<v Speaker 2>alabama Yeah so troy. Is interesting Appstate Loses, nate woody their,

1:02:29.880 --> 1:02:33.520
<v Speaker 2>Defensive coordinator they lose a lot on. That, Defense Offensively

1:02:33.680 --> 1:02:35.760
<v Speaker 2>taylor lamb, is gone who's been their. Quarterback Forever But

1:02:35.840 --> 1:02:38.680
<v Speaker 2>jalen moore is still. Very fun and they Open At

1:02:38.680 --> 1:02:42.120
<v Speaker 2>penn state and they Close, with troy so their schedule

1:02:42.240 --> 1:02:47.200
<v Speaker 2>is bracketed with their two most. Difficult opponents aside from those,

1:02:47.240 --> 1:02:52.840
<v Speaker 2>two teams there's a lot. Of UGLINESS like I Like

1:02:53.200 --> 1:02:56.000
<v Speaker 2>justice hanson a whole Bunch At. Arkansas state his receiving corps.

1:02:56.040 --> 1:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Is great he might have the smallest running back in,

1:02:57.800 --> 1:03:06.520
<v Speaker 2>The country Warren. Wand land beyond That the, louisiana schools

1:03:06.960 --> 1:03:10.800
<v Speaker 2>so that Would. Be louisiana don't Call Them. Louisiana laviette whatever,

1:03:10.920 --> 1:03:15.960
<v Speaker 2>you do don't Call Them. Louisiana lafayette they their fun offense,

1:03:16.120 --> 1:03:20.640
<v Speaker 2>is back except. For quarterback billionapier is a. New Quarterback

1:03:20.720 --> 1:03:23.480
<v Speaker 2>herm edwards really thought he had him as offensive coordinator

1:03:23.520 --> 1:03:25.440
<v Speaker 2>and then he left as soon as he could for

1:03:25.520 --> 1:03:25.959
<v Speaker 2>the Job.

1:03:26.280 --> 1:03:27.480
<v Speaker 1>In. LAFAYETTE.

<v Speaker 2>Louisiana Ulm caleb evans was. Pretty Good marcus green. Super

1:03:33.920 --> 1:03:39.120
<v Speaker 2>Fun the louisiana schools have, garbage defenses just utter piles,

1:03:39.200 --> 1:03:41.280
<v Speaker 2>of trash which that game should be so.

1:03:41.520 --> 1:03:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Fun time.

1:03:44.400 --> 1:03:47.080
