1 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:13,319 Speaker 1: Now walking to Lake AGAs Live. It is Tuesday night, 2 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: August thirtieth, Fear of Our Lord, twenty twenty two. This 3 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: is the time of week when we're headed into week one, 4 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 1: where my excitement starts to shift a little bit to fear, 5 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: not for myself, but for you guys, because I know 6 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: some of your hearts are about to be broken and 7 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,319 Speaker 1: you're not ready for it, because you're favored in week 8 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: one and you've already looked past week one, and you 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 1: have no business doing that with week one. We will 10 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: discuss and dissect the night we're jampacked. We're high a top, 11 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: just a glowing downtown Nashville, Tennessee, beautiful day to day. 12 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 1: Where are those upsets coming? I'm not talking about necessarily 13 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: Florida over Utah. We're not talking about that field goal 14 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: spread nonsense, although there's one game I'm gonna touch on 15 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: that kind of resembles that I'm talking about, the Georgia 16 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: State over South Carolina out of nowhere, elbow off the 17 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: top rope. See anybody out there by the way, zennyone 18 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: just able to recide off the top of their head. 19 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: The fact that South Carolina is only favored by twelve 20 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,479 Speaker 1: and a half at home against Georgia State. So yes, 21 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: let's talk about that in just a second. I got 22 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: several more Week one predictions. I got three more games 23 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: that we have to break down. The Clemson quarterback situation 24 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,199 Speaker 1: I have been fascinated by since spring, and back in spring, 25 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: Dabo Swiney was disagreeing with us. Not on the show 26 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: per se, we couldn't book him, but in his media 27 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: availability he was disagreeing. It sounds like he's coming a 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: little more around to our way of thinking, and our 29 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: way of thinking is you're going to see cade Club 30 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: Nick sooner rather than later, not just as a backup, 31 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: but maybe even as a starting quarterback at Clemson. All 32 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: that plus a Rama Noodle Express update and tonight, Actually 33 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: the staff doesn't even know I'm going to do this. 34 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: At the end of the show, I am going to 35 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: introduce you, or at least I'm going to tell you 36 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: about a brand new product that we're going to roll 37 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: out on this channel, probably this weekend as games are 38 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: going on. That doesn't necessarily involve you seeing me, but 39 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: it does involve you seeing something that may be very 40 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: financially beneficial to you. The sports better I'll leave that 41 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: for the end of the show. They're watching us in Brownwood, Texas, Columbia, 42 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: South Carolina, Frankfurt, Germany, probably Kentucky too, and noon in Georgia. 43 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: I can't stress this enough. A lot of you have 44 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: already heated, took heed of headed took head of my 45 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: advice on the Instagram channel, platform or channel or page, 46 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it.

It's very simple. Starting this week and 55 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 1: every week through the National Championship Game, we will be 56 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: at whatever we decide to go to as the biggest 57 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: game of the week. It is the every given Saturday tour. 58 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: We're starting in Arkansas this Saturday, Cincinnati, Arkansas. I will 59 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: have so much behind the scenes stuff for you guys. 60 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 1: You will not see it anywhere else, no one gets 61 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: the access that we do, so I'm very much looking 62 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: forward to that.

I'll post anywhere between twenty and 65 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: forty pieces of content that will never be seen anywhere else, 66 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: And it's just a fascinating behind the curtain look that 67 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: we're blessed to have and I want you to have it. 68 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: So hey, if you don't care about that, then don't follow. 69 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:29,679 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying there's a lot of stuff that 70 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: we put on there, not to mention Friday Night Lions 71 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: is back. That's Instagram Live only. We don't do that 72 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: anywhere else. So there's a big value proposition for you 73 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: to be following there. Okay, there's also a big value 74 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: proposition for you to just be careful. Please be careful. 75 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:45,839 Speaker 1: I want all of you to have a good time 76 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: this weekend, I really do, and I want all of 77 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: you to be winners, but you can't be You're a 78 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: winner for watching the show, but some of you are 79 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: just flat out going to be losers because of the 80 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: team you're pulling for, and some of you know it. 81 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: And you're ready for it, others are not ready for it. 82 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: That's where I want to dive intnight, because upsets are 83 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: coming as sure as the winter is coming, So too 84 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: are upsets, and I don't think that everyone has braced themselves. 85 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: We call this on the show the Castaway theory. By 86 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: the way, we try and invoke as many metaphors that 87 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: tie into the movie Castaway as possible, because I think 88 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: it really ties into life as a college football fan. 89 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: For example, think about Tom Hanks. All he's got is 90 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: Wilson to talk to for years, and he's out there 91 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: on that island somewhere in the Pacific and he starts 92 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: to build that raft. Now, I remember when I watched 93 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 1: that movie, how sturdy that raft looked. It's got the 94 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: best wood on the island. I mean, it's tied together 95 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: with VHS tape. What more adhesive could you possibly need? 96 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: And it looks like it's ready until it goes out 97 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: onto the open sea. Then you find out what the 98 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: ocean does to man made rafts. It batters it pretty thoroughly, 99 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 1: doesn't it. That's kind of the way the season treats 100 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: a lot of your expectations. Your preview magazine smells so 101 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 1: good when you crack them open for the first time, 102 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: and that roster, it looks so pristine, and those www 103 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: occasional l more ws than l's that you drew in 104 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,119 Speaker 1: the blanks on those magazines. It just looks so neat 105 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: and tidy. And then the season happens. You've got twenty 106 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: two moving pieces every play, sometimes one hundred and eighty 107 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: to maybe two hundred of them a game, if overtime 108 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: is included. You've got balls that are shaped, weird, that 109 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: bounce all kinds of different ways. You got a right 110 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: guard not fully healthy, you don't know about you gotta 111 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: will winebacker, not focused, missing his gap, and all of 112 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: a sudden results that shouldn't happen according to what your 113 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: paper says happen, And it's going to happen this Saturday. 114 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: And I'm looking across the board and I'm trying to 115 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: ask myself, as I failingly do every year, where is 116 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: the upset coming? It's easy to know it's coming. Where 117 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: is it going to come? That's the big question. Now 118 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 1: there's one game, a couple of them actually that we 119 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: have broken down and are going to break down tonight. 120 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: So I wanted to start with those, but then I 121 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: wanted to go a little bit further off the radar. 122 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: So Cincinnati at Arkansas gets more fascinating by the day. 123 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: That's the game that we're going to be at Saturday. 124 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: And yet I don't know a single person who has 125 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: picked Cincinnati to win this game. I mean, I had 126 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: not heard a single person, even in our comment section, 127 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: that has picked Cincinnati and then put together a well articulated, 128 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: logic based argument. It's easy to just say Cincinnati because 129 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: you know nothing's on the line if you say it 130 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: and you're wrong, But do you really believe it? Have 131 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: any of you put money on Cincinnati money line? Have 132 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: you seen any of the national types because I haven't. 133 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: I haven't picked them to win. I haven't seen anyone 134 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: picking them to win. And the line is under a touchdown. 135 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: This thing's in fatful. Do you understand what's being disseminated 136 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: there from odds makers? And that means that they're playing 137 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: this thing in Atlanta. A field goal probably is the 138 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: line on this thing. And that's with Desmond Ritter and 139 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: the entire secondary gone for Cincinnati, and you've got all 140 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: this returning hype and all these returning players and Kendall 141 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 1: Brown's and kJ Jefferson year two together, Sam Pittman, what 142 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: most of these things have been said by me, And 143 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: the line is what is it right now? Jesse six? 144 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,679 Speaker 1: It's under a touchdown? So is that where the upset comes? 145 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: And if it happens, how big an upset is that? 146 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: I think it would be painted as a huge upset nationally, 147 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: and yet your odds board right there is telling you, no, 148 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: it's it's a mild upset. That's what it would be. Categorically, 149 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: it would be a mild upset. I picked Arkansas to win. 150 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: I picked Arkansas to cover, but I told you our 151 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: model has I think Arkansas minus seven and a half, 152 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: so we're not that far off of what the Vegas 153 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: number is. It's just gonna be a really competitive game. 154 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: Cincinnati's a really good team. I have told you a 155 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: couple of times this week. There are players whose names 156 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: you don't know on that team yet that are plenty 157 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: good enough to play in any Power five league. It's 158 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: just that because they're not a national name brand type program, 159 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: you don't know them. That doesn't mean they can't play. 160 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: It just means you don't know they can play, and 161 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: you'll find out Saturday when you watch this game. Yeah 162 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: they lost a bunch of pieces. Yeah they got some 163 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: pieces that you have not heard of yet to fill 164 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: those voids. The other one that we're going to break 165 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: down later tonight in a few minutes, actually, so I'm 166 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: not going to dive too deep into it, is Penn 167 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: State at Purdue. It's a very short line. Penn State's 168 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: favored by three and a half at most places right now, 169 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: and Purdue in many ways stands the biggest opportunity to 170 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: springboard off of a Week one result, because Purdue plays 171 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: their toughest game in Week one at least until maybe 172 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: way later in the year. And that's Penn State at home. 173 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: Look at the rest of Purdue schedule, look at what 174 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: they have down the road. They go to Wisconsin, that's 175 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: not until October twenty second, that's the next time they 176 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: would play a ranked opponent. We have Penn State power 177 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: rated top ten. The AP doesn't have them ranked. And 178 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about kind of the way we 179 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: differ in just a few minutes. But do you know 180 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: what kind of pressure is on the Penn State program 181 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: talked about it many times. Two of their first three 182 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: games are on the road, this one two weeks later 183 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: at Auburn. This game, this Penn State Purdue game, will 184 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: have big time and every given Saturday tour ramifications attached 185 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: to it. And I'm sure that James Franklin's feeling that pressure, 186 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: by the way, and well he should, because we showed 187 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,559 Speaker 1: up to the Auburn game last year and we probably, 188 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,960 Speaker 1: truth be told, were the driving factor that pushed them 189 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: over the top and got that win. But hey, if 190 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: they lose this game, purdues set up beautifully in the 191 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: Big Ten West. But also if Penn State loses this game, 192 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: it's kind of like the raft that looks great on shore. 193 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: All the rafts you've ever seen built look great on shore. 194 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: You take them out into the open ocean, and the 195 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: waves and the ocean and the tides do what those 196 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: sorts of things do. What if Purdue just wins. What 197 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: IF's thirty one to thirty and they win, and man, 198 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: Penn State's offensive lines not what it should be and 199 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: they didn't run the ball for more than one hundred 200 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: yards with any individual back there, and a lot of 201 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: the same ugly trends from last year carry over to 202 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: this year. I'm gonna break the game down in just 203 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: a second. I'm just saying, how many people are out 204 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: there picking Purdue. Not a whole lot. Some I've seen some, 205 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: not a whole lot. Now I want to go a 206 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: little off the radar. I just want you to be 207 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: heads up and I'm not picking any of these. I'll 208 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: tell you what our model thinks in second, I'm not 209 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: picking any of these. I just want it to be 210 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: acknowledged you shouldn't be overlooking these. Central Michigan plays Oklahoma 211 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: State in Week one. That is the Jim mcilwaine led 212 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: Central Michigan Chippewas or Chippewa's further north you go, I'm 213 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: from West central Georgia. There is a hard Waws on 214 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: the end of Central Michigan's mascot for us good pass rush, 215 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: which you probably don't know about because you have a 216 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 1: life and you don't have time to watch Central Michigan. 217 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: Really good secondary which also you probably don't know about 218 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: because you have a life and don't have time to 219 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: watch Central Michigan. They have an experienced quarterback. And also 220 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: there's this entire defensive coordinator situation at Oklahoma State. You 221 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: know who was there, Jim Knowles he's gone to Columbus Ohio. 222 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: Now does the country know Jesse. I don't have a 223 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: good feel for this, colin I don't have a good 224 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: feel for this. How many people out there are aware 225 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: that Derrick Mason, by way of Auburn and by way 226 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: of Vanderbilt before that, is now the defensive coordinator at 227 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State. I don't know if a whole lot of 228 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: you have been paying attention to that. There are some 229 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: people in the coaching industry, as much as they respect 230 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: Mike Gundhy, that think, ooh, he just lost a really 231 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: integral part of that team. And here's the thing, Central 232 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: Michigan can limit your possessions. Possessions will be the name 233 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: of the game here. So how many of them do 234 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: they get? And also twenty two our model likes Oklahoma State. 235 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: They paint Oklahoma State in the model they the model 236 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: paints Oklahoma State minus twenty five. So our our model 237 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: likes Oklahoma State. I just want to put it out there. 238 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: Central Michigan has some facets of that team that could 239 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: make this game interesting to watch. NC State in South 240 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: Carolina I find in very similar positions going into week one. 241 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: Let me talk about NC State for a second. Here's 242 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 1: what you probably know about them. They got Devin Leary back, 243 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: they're really good defensively, they won nine games last year, 244 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: and they could win the ACC. Right, All that checks out. 245 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: What you probably don't know is anything about East Carolina. 246 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 1: But see NC State opens the road at East Carolina 247 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: in just a few days. The spread is eleven and 248 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: a half at most places. And so I look at 249 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: this one and I wonder, how would it happen? How 250 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: would the upset happen. You've also with a bunch of 251 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: these closer than they should be kind of spreads in 252 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: week one. You normally always have a veteran presence at quarterback. 253 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: You normally always have a decent stable of running backs. 254 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: East Carolina checks both of these boxes. NC State is 255 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: probably going to move up and down the field fairly 256 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: easily between the twenties. Where this could turn is if 257 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: they get down the red zone and they have to 258 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: settle for threes instead of sevens. That's how East Carolina 259 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: sort of lulls you into a false sense of security. 260 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: You've watched that game happen a million times before, where 261 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: someone's moving the ball at will. Think about Bama Clemson 262 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen title game, Bama's moving the ball up and 263 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: down the field on Clemson. They cannot convert for the 264 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: life of themselves when they get in the red zone 265 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: and they get blown out, and after the game you're 266 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: asking yourself, but they were moving the ball, so well, 267 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 1: how did this happen? What happened? By design? There are 268 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: no illusion there. I guarantee you there's no illusion in 269 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: the East Carolina coaching staff that I will stone them. 270 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: They're not gonna stone them. But when they get down 271 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: in the red zone, if you're opportunistic enough and you 272 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: can harness that home energy, which by the way, they 273 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: will happen. They hate NC State in Greenville with the 274 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: passion of one hundred white hot suns, and if they 275 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: can harness that and make it a fourth quarter game, 276 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: our model thinks the numbers right. So our model paints 277 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: in North Carolina winning the thing by about eleven or 278 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: twelve points. They got it to do. You're looking at 279 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: the schedule there, Charleston Southern next week, Texas Tech the 280 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: week after that, Yukon the week after that, and then 281 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: they go too Clemson, and most of you are not 282 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: even making an appointment to watch NC State until that 283 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 1: December or not December October first date against Clemson. So 284 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 1: let's just let's keep them on our radar Saturday and 285 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: speak of the game Cocks whatever they're calling themselves up 286 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: there these days. Georgia State comes into Columbia Saturday. I 287 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: think this game Saturday. I gotta be careful here because 288 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 1: we like South Carolina. I'm not picking an upset, don't 289 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: worry about it. But look what I am doing. You 290 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: see me picking up my hand here. Got a little callous, 291 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: had a good day on inclined bench, but it did 292 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: contribute to the callous. And I'm picking at it because 293 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: it really makes me uneasy that South Carolina has all 294 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: this energy behind the program, and everyone's talking about that 295 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: trip they're about to make to Arkansas in week two, 296 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: and then they got Georgia coming in there in week three, 297 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: and are they going to be two and one? Are 298 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: they going to be one and one? They're gonna be 299 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: three and zero, and no one in the world is 300 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: talking about the fact that they're less than a two 301 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: touchdown favorite at home against Georgia State in week one. 302 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: Here's what you always should think about Georgia State. You 303 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: should think they're probably better than I expect, because they're 304 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: probably littered with former SEC guys who for whatever reason, 305 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: did workout where they originally committed, and so they just 306 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: they found a home in Atlanta. That's the kind of 307 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: athlete at Georgia State has. Jacksonville State's the same way 308 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: Troy in some years is the same way these Southern 309 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: G five level teams. You always have to be careful 310 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: with them. It's kind of the feel you should have 311 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: when you play a service academy, but for different reasons, 312 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: you never take those teams lightly. If you're in Alabama 313 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: or if you're in Georgia, if you're in these kind 314 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: of areas where a lot of the fallback options for 315 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: Power five level talent that doesn't work out as you 316 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: then occasionally you can have a really good roster. They've 317 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: got one. Or Georgia State they got a bunch of 318 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: all Sun Belt type players on defense that are back, 319 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: and we got a whole bunch of newness offensively at 320 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: South Carolina. So Spencer Rattler is the new quarterback. There. 321 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: There's a lot of hope, there should be, there's a 322 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: lot of energy behind the program. There should be. What 323 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: I wonder as I look at our model put South 324 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: Carolina at minus fifteen is how does this play out? 325 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: I'll tell you how I think it will. This is 326 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: the kind of game where it's close first quarter, Georgia 327 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: State may even have an early leave for all I know, 328 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: close at halftime, still competitive third quarter, and then through 329 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: some chain of events, South Carolina gets themselves some margin 330 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, and you end up if you 331 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: just surf box scores at the end of the day, 332 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: you see, oh, South Carolina one. They may have even 333 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: covered good for them. But yet if you watch the 334 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: whole game, you tell that buddy who just surfs box scores, 335 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: that was way closer than that final score makes it. Look. 336 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: I'm telling you there's some work still to be done 337 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: at South Carolina. And that's okay. There's gonna be work 338 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: to be done for everybody, but that one. I've got 339 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: my eye on Kentucky, the number two odds on favorite 340 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: in the SEC East preseason. They are a sixteen and 341 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: a half point favorite at home against Miami of Ohio. 342 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: And also, I mean, Mississippi State got a royal screw 343 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: job at Memphis last year, so they played them in 344 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: Week one in Starkville. The Bulldogs, who we've got power 345 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: rated number twenty in the preseason. They are a fifteen 346 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: point favorite. Heartbreak is inevitable and I don't really even 347 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: know what you guys yourselves can do to avoid it. 348 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: But I just want you to be on guard, be excited, 349 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 1: but be alert. That's how we should go into Week one. 350 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: Here's what else you should be looking for free stuff 351 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: because I was on the horn with Academy Sports and 352 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: Outdoors today. In fact, I've got tracking information. I won't 353 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: bother to pull it up. I could pull it up 354 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: right here in my email as I welcome everyone watching live. 355 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: Make sure you like the video. I've got tracking information 356 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: that tells me we have a horde. And you know 357 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: how rarely I use that word. A horde of new 358 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: Academy gift cards en route to Nashville, Tennessee. They will 359 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: be here by tomorrow if FedEx comes through, and I 360 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 1: will be able to take them on the road with 361 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: me starting in Week one in Fayetteville and throughout the 362 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: National Championship Game this year. So you know the drill. 363 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 1: A lot of you benefited from this last year. I 364 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: don't hide when I'm in these cities. I'm out and 365 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: about and I got pockets full of these Academy gift cards. 366 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: If you see me, don't run up to me and 367 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: just slap me on the back of the head, but 368 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: feel free to approach me. I've got them, I'm ready 369 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: to give them, and they are for you, not for me. 370 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: In fact, it would be pretty unethical if I were 371 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: to use these for myself, and believe me, I have not, 372 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: so these are for you. Academy Sports and Outdoors are 373 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: exclusive partner. Starting this Sunday, our show will look different 374 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: because of Academy Sports and Outdoors. We're really excited about that. 375 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 1: I'll explain all that Sunday, but until then, it's time 376 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: to gear up. Every one of you in some shape, 377 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: form or fashion. You're either going to games or you're 378 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: watching games. You need, whether you know it or not, 379 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: something they have at Academy Sports and Outdoors, and until 380 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: you've been there, you really don't even know what all 381 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: they have. So either go to Academy Sports and Outdoors 382 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: and person or go to Academy dot com. But make 383 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: sure you go and support our exclusive partner, our friend 384 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: and your friend. Thank you, thank you for making the 385 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: show free, because that's on them. That's not on us. 386 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 1: Let's break down some games. Thursday night's going to be 387 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: a great night. We don't have a show Thursday night. 388 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 1: That's how big Thursday Night is. There are two must 389 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: see games. One of them is at eight o'clock Eastern 390 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: time on Fox. It is Penn State at Purdue. This 391 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: one's going to be really exciting, ton of pressure. You've 392 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: got a sleeper team in one division, You've kind of 393 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: got a sleeper team in another division. This is the 394 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: this is the wrong lower. So I'm just gonna rerack 395 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: this whole thing. It's probably on me, Colin, It's probably 396 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: on me. So here's what I'm gonna do. If you're 397 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: watching live, just ignore all this. If you're watching the replay, 398 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: you'll never know this happened. Three two one Thursday night. 399 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: We do not have a show, and that is because 400 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: we've got two must see games. One of them is 401 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: eight o'clock Eastern. That's the kick. The game is Penn 402 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: State at Purdue. Penn State is a short favorite here, 403 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: but a favorite of about three and a half points. 404 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: We get these kind of games every year where you've 405 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 1: got one style versus another side, you know, sort of 406 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: the styles clashing sorts of things. And the whole question 407 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 1: in this game is paper cut versus sledgehammer. What's it 408 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: going to be? Because both of them can kill you technically, 409 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: but it's normally the guy holding the sledgehammer that really 410 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 1: gets to decide. Now, if he doesn't take care of business, 411 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: if he doesn't use that sledgehammer properly, paper cuts, they 412 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: can take you down. Perdue could paper cut you to death. 413 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: Penn State can sledgehammer you to death. We get to 414 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,239 Speaker 1: find out which style, and it's not always a one 415 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: hundred percent win factor for either side. We get to 416 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: find out which style works out this Thursday night. Here's 417 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: what we know, at least we think we know. I 418 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: think I know Penn State may have the best secondary 419 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: that produces all season, which is noteworthy because we know 420 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: what style of play Perdue is going to employ. Here's 421 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: why that is very very important. There's some good secondaries 422 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: out there that Purdue can victimize. But the higher caliber 423 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 1: of play you have in your secondary, the more you 424 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: can turn other defense's concerns into your opportunity. See a 425 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: lot of defenses out there when they know how many 426 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: times they're going to have to defend the pass against Purdue, 427 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: they get nervous because they don't think they stack up 428 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: against it favorably. Penn State stacks up favorably. Not only that, 429 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: but they get opportunity because the more times you put 430 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 1: the ball in the air against a good secondary like 431 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 1: Penn State has, the more opportunity they have to pick 432 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: it off to actually score, to generate points defensively, This 433 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: to me is where this game could turn. By the way, 434 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: Thursday night, we can talk about Sean Clifford, we talk 435 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: about that hopefully upgraded Penn State running game all you 436 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: want to, their defense could generate points or at very 437 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: least they could generate positive field position. So ball in 438 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: the air a ton that's inevitable. How much can that 439 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: Penn State secondary capitalize on it? And now, obviously how 440 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: much pressure can they generate up front defensively. The second 441 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: thing I think I know is I think I know 442 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: Purdue believes they can make Sean Clifford have to win 443 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: the game for Penn State. And there is a reason 444 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: for them to feel that way. And what I mean, 445 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: of course, anyone who watched Penn State last year, or 446 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 1: anyone who's watched this show for any length of time 447 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,479 Speaker 1: understands they were woeful on the ground, one of at 448 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 1: the Power five level the worst rushing attacks last year. 449 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: They had injury, so there's an explanation for it. But 450 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 1: the stats are what the stats are. In this case, 451 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: the numbers do not lie to you. They are telling 452 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: you the truth. They're painting an accurate picture. There was 453 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: not a single game where an individual Penn State player 454 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: rushed for one hundred and more yards. That will change 455 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: very quickly this year of that, I am certain will 456 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: it be this game. That's what Purdue is banking no on, 457 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: and they're banking that they can get that guy, Sean Clifford, 458 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: into enough obvious passing downs to where if that guy 459 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: comes into our house and beats us, given this team's 460 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 1: track record, we've got to tip our cap. But what 461 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: we're not going to let him do is we're not 462 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: going to let him put him in third and threes. 463 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: Third and two is where the entire playbook is at 464 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: their disposal. We've got to tilt the field our way 465 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: one way or the other, and we're gonna make Sean 466 00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: Clifford do it. So they think they can do that. 467 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: Now now here is the million dollar question that's sort 468 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: of that force of wills. That's that clash of styles. 469 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 1: Because Penn State, the entire spring, the entire summer, the 470 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: entire fall has been built around upgrading offensive line. They've 471 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: been very careful, have they talked about it around there, 472 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: James Franklin chief among them. And it's been built around 473 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: enhancing talent in the backfield. And I believe they've done 474 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: that definitively. Now they've got to put it on display 475 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: because they believe talking about what Purdue believes, Penn State 476 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: believes it's really irrelevant because their personnel will dictate that 477 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: they have the advantage along the lines of scrimmage. Their 478 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: personnel in the backfield will dictate that they have the 479 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: advantage there, and they believe Sean Clifford and I would 480 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: agree with this sentiment. They believe he gives them a 481 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: balanced enough attack offensively where you can't sell out one 482 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: way or the other if you're purdued. Now, I would 483 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 1: happen to believe that last sentiment. But this is all 484 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: on paper, like they're going to play at Thursday night, 485 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: because you've got to go prove it. Here's what I 486 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: expect to see. I expect a very hot produced start. 487 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: One of the real, real good coaches at scripting those 488 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 1: first ten or fifteen is Jeff Brohm. They are experts 489 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,959 Speaker 1: at harnessing that home environment. You've seen it if you've 490 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 1: watched Big Ten football for any length of time. I 491 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 1: expect a fast, hot start from Purdue. You could see 492 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: heads swimming for the first few minutes of that game, 493 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: at least for Penn State defensively. But at last I 494 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: think they'll settle in, and then I think that ground 495 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 1: game will start to show signs that there will be 496 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: improvement this year in that facet of Penn State's offense. 497 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: I think that Purdue is plenty good enough to trade 498 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: shots with them. Where I think this will turn is 499 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: I think that Penn State's defensive ability to score points 500 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: or at least generate negative plays, and that run game 501 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: are tailor made for taking this over in the fourth quarter. 502 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 1: Here's what the model thinks. Let's take a look at 503 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: what Vegas thinks in conjunction with our model. As you've 504 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: seen on the bottom of the screen, Penn State is 505 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: a three and a half point favorite. And I've told 506 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: you for a while, if I were betting this game 507 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: with my gut, I would be all over Penn State. 508 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: I have a good feel about it, but we specifically 509 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: engineered this model to remove that because that's how you 510 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: end up being a fifty percent better. So what the 511 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 1: model thinks is Penn State minus four and a half. 512 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: So it does lean Nitney lyons. But that model takes 513 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 1: my gut and says, no, shut up. This is a 514 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 1: competitive game, and what the data says, at least the 515 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 1: way you've constructed it is lean slightly Penn State. If 516 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: someone makes you pick it in a pool, pit Pen State. 517 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: But you're not betting your money on this, So I'm 518 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: not betting any money on this. This is not a 519 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: rom Noodle express play. But we are taking Penn State. 520 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: My personal feel is they'll win the thing by a 521 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,959 Speaker 1: touchdown or more, but that's not what we base our 522 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: strategy around here on. We basic it on what the 523 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: model says, cause the model is a lot better than me. 524 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: So Penn State does win. Penn State does cover very 525 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: competitive game. Speaking of competitive, my do you know what 526 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: this post it says? No, you don't, because I got 527 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: to turn the wrong way this post it is an 528 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: update on our Saint Jeu D's children's cancer research auction. 529 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: We've never done one of these before, but the company 530 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: came to me a few weeks ago and said, would 531 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: you be willing to do this? And I said, of course. So. 532 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: The charity, which one hundred percent of the proceeds will 533 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: go to, is Saint Jude's Cancer Research at specifically helping 534 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: children there. So we're all about that. Every one of 535 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: you has been touched by that in some shape, form 536 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: or fashion. We have too, so we're helping them out. 537 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: What's on the line A thirty minute zoom chat with me. 538 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 1: That's it. Nothing off limits except removal of clothing. And 539 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: the only reason I had to agree to that is 540 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: for legal reasons. Otherwise it's for a good cause. I'm 541 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: down for pretty much anything, but thirty minutes probably could 542 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: go longer if the conversation's nice. Right now, as of 543 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: seven twenty six pm Central Standard Time on this Tuesday night, 544 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 1: do you know what this number is up to? I 545 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: challenged you to get it over one thousand dollars Sunday night. 546 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: It is now at twelve hundred and twenty five dollars 547 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: and we've still got three days left. So I texted 548 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: direct Colin and I said, we are terrible at setting 549 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: our goals too low. On this show, we always fly 550 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: past them, and you have flown past this. So there 551 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: is a link in the show description right now, if 552 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: you're watching the live show, there is a link here. 553 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: I've tweeted it out several times. Can we get this 554 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: over two thousand, especially since you know the money's not 555 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 1: going to me, it's going to Saint Jude. I think 556 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: someone out there is. I think someone's up to the challenge. 557 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: So two thousand, that's the new challenge. Two thousand, that's 558 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: where I want to get. We are lapping everyone at 559 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: the company, though, so hats off there. We are getting 560 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: margin on the rest of the company. I don't really 561 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 1: even think they want to be competitive on this anymore. 562 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: But good for you, guys, really really good cause there 563 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: all right, let's move on here. I appreciate you being 564 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: tuned in. Make sure you like the video because most 565 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: of you haven't yet. It's free, so like the video. 566 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: The Clemson quarterback situation is interesting that you knew in spring, 567 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: in fact, that you probably knew when you saw dj 568 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: uyangli lay under achieved last year and them signed k Klubnick, 569 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: a five star quarterback, and you may have thought to yourself, 570 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: will he take the job out right during spring? No, 571 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 1: that was never realistic. But what we did get to 572 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 1: hear are whispers from Clemson during the spring, and we 573 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: all knew that was leading towards the season eventually. And 574 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: the whispers in the spring were k Klubnick's too good 575 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: to keep off the field. Now, you did not hear 576 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: that from Dabos Twenny. You didn't hear it from Streeter 577 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: the new offensive coordinator. No, of course you didn't. It 578 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: was spring and you don't get a whole lot of access. 579 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: Then summer comes around, and then fall camp comes around, 580 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, the tones just slightly start 581 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: to change, but the folks on the ground around Clemson 582 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: majorly start to change their tune from this could happen 583 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: to this is probably gonna happen, not a matter of if, 584 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: but more a matter of when. And that thing that 585 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: they're talking about is a quarterback change. And so we 586 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: arrive at week one. Now, for those of you unfamiliar 587 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: with Clemson schedule, they played Georgia Tech on Monday Night, 588 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: which means you get to watch your team whether it 589 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: be on Thursday or Saturday or Sunday, you get all 590 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: of your obligations out of the way and you get 591 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: to celebrate Labor Day in style. And then you come 592 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: home and what do you have. You got a big 593 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: acc match up there in Mercedes Benz Stadium, by the way, 594 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 1: You're not playing this at Grant Field, and you've got 595 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: this question that will start to be answered, and that 596 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: is who is the answer long term at quarterback this 597 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: year for Clemson. The tune seems to have changed. My 598 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: take in the spring was eventually it's going to be 599 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: k Club next team for a combination of reasons. One, 600 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: I think he's that good. Number Two, it is very 601 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: hard for me to envision a quantum leap in production 602 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: from DJ in year two. Now, it's happened before, so 603 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: I'm playing the percentages there that it doesn't happen again. 604 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: I just think a lot of the problems he had 605 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: last year were not the kind that I think are correctible, 606 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: at least correctable to the point where you're going to 607 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: better than Kay Clubnick. Now that doesn't mean Kay Clubnick 608 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: is their go to option. The moment he steps on campus. 609 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: He's a true freshman, so there's a lot of a 610 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: learning curve there. I want to visit some of the 611 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: quotes most recently and I want to compare them with 612 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: what we heard in the spring. So Daboswiney had a 613 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: very interesting quote. This is within the last week, not 614 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: spring quote. DJ is the starter and he's earned that. 615 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: If that changes, I guess everybody will know it. But 616 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: our plan is for DJ to have an amazing season 617 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: and for Kaid to get as much playing time as 618 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: possible because he brings some special gifts to the table 619 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: that will all be game by game. It loosened a lot, 620 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: The phraseology loosened a lot. Brandon Streeter, the offensive coordinator, 621 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 1: kind of similar said, DJ's our guy right now. But 622 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: kid Klubnick is definitely going to play. Mind you, it's 623 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: not week six. They have not teen it up yet. 624 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: They have not played a meaningful down of football yet 625 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: for Clemson this year. This kid's never started a game, 626 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: played a down in college, and that's what they're saying 627 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: about him already. Now. This song makes perfect sense if 628 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: you know how to read the sheet music. The music 629 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: is telling you Cave Klubnick's eventually going to be the 630 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: starting quarterback this year clems in unless either a miracle happens, 631 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 1: and dj Uyangola LA has made quantum leaps and improvement 632 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: that I don't think they've seen in practice to be 633 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: blunt or there's injury, in which case none of us 634 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: could have seen that coming. So when will that happen? Well, 635 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: I think there's a tendency Colin, if you could throw 636 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: out their schedule for a second, let me show you 637 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: what I mean here. There's probably going to be a 638 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,479 Speaker 1: tendency for some people to go to Clemson schedule and 639 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: you automatically think to yourself, Oh, this will never manifest 640 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: itself until they play a really good team. Do they 641 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: play one in Week one against Georgia Tech? Nah, Furman 642 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: in week two now Louisiana Tech. That's not the way 643 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: it works, guys. That's not the way this will work, 644 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: because if you'll remember last year, it didn't take facing 645 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: top ten competition to expose some of the flaws in 646 00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: that offense, nor will it this year if the flo 647 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: are still there. So let me paint your little scenario. 648 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: It's Monday night, it's Labor Day evening. You're mildly to 649 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: moderately sunburnt. You've watched so much football over the span 650 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: of the seventy two hours prior, and there's Clemson versus 651 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. Clemson could be up thirty five to nothing 652 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: at the half and all's well. Or there's this other 653 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: scenario where it's thirteen to nine at the half and 654 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: dj Uyangilala is like five for fourteen with seventy two 655 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: yards passing in one turnover already. And what are people saying? 656 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: Because this is not twenty twenty one. In twenty twenty one, 657 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: it was we got to ride or die with him. 658 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: It's twenty twenty two, and you know you've got a stud, 659 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: a true freshman stud, but a stud in kid Klubnick. 660 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 1: This is going to happen. If it's not in week one, 661 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: it is my belief it's eventually gonna happen. And that 662 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: time's gonna come and Dabos Swineye is gonna have to 663 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: make a decision. He's paid a lot of money to make. 664 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm glad that I don't have to make it. It's 665 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: gonna have to make a decision, and he knows one. 666 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: Once you go, there's no going back. That quarterback situation 667 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: so delicate. Everyone wants to hit the button so so quickly, 668 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 1: and there's a reason why coaches seem to drag their feet. 669 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 1: They're not dragging their feet. They just have to be 670 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: fully convicted in the decision because they know they have 671 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: to live with the ramifications. And I just wonder how 672 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: long it takes for us to get there. I believe 673 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: we'll get there. I wonder how long Dabo knows he's 674 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: got an option this year. That's what I want you 675 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: to be thinking as you're watching Clemson games. If you 676 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: don't know anything else about that team, they're going to 677 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: be supremely talented on the defensive front. He knows that 678 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: he does not have to have a quarterback putting up 679 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: Heisman numbers this year. What he has to have is 680 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: a guy who can move the chains, a guy with poise, 681 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: a guy with accuracy, a guy who doesn't turn the 682 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: ball over. Just a good decision maker that has an 683 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: elite physical ceiling. Because of the teams, they'll eventually have 684 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: to play down the road to get where they want 685 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: to be. Is DJ Leangoli lay that he wasn't last year. 686 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: I don't expect he'll be this year now. I don't 687 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: know that Kate Klubnick will be. I think he's got 688 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: the potential too, and I think he's got a higher 689 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: ceiling and I think we're going to find that out 690 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. So that's an update on the 691 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: Clemson quarterback situation. A quick reminder, really good pace tonight. 692 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: A reminder we don't have a show on Thursday night 693 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: because they are big games Thursday night, so it would 694 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: be stupid for us to have a show. However, one 695 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: more reminder, make sure you're following on Instagram at late 696 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: kick Josh. Those Friday night lines is back. What is 697 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,720 Speaker 1: that I haven't explained that tonight. Have I ten second 698 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 1: version That is where we take the model and I 699 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,720 Speaker 1: go live on Instagram. It's later in the evening on Friday. 700 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: I'll announce the time about an hour beforehand, and I 701 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: take questions from you for about twenty minutes on games 702 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: that you're thinking about betting that we have not talked 703 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: about on the show, and I'll tell you what the 704 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,959 Speaker 1: model thinks full disclosure. I'll tell you if the model 705 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: says it's a play on or a not and I'll 706 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: give you some thoughts on them. So it was a 707 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 1: really really popular thing we did last year. It is 708 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 1: not sanctioned or condoned or endorsed by management around here 709 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: in any way. That's why it's on my Instagram channel 710 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: instead of anyone else. It's at Late Kick, Josh, let's 711 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: break down another game. You thought we forgot about this 712 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: game the other night. We didn't. We just didn't do 713 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 1: it the other night because it's a Sunday night game. 714 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: But boy, we got a big chunk of our audience 715 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: that roots for one of these two teams. Florida State 716 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: versus LSU is a Sunday night game. For those of 717 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: you who didn't know, this is a seven to thirty 718 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: Eastern time kickoff on ESPN. It is for this reason 719 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,800 Speaker 1: that we're starting our Sunday night show at six thirty Eastern, 720 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 1: five thirty Central, So just keep that in mind. Brian 721 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: Kelly is the head coach at LSU. Now, for those 722 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: of you who have stuck with us, who live the 723 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,919 Speaker 1: no off season life, you know that. I think most 724 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,280 Speaker 1: people know it, but you know, there's an entire sea 725 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: of people out there who don't come back to the 726 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 1: college football table until August, so this is still a 727 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: new concept to them. And then none of us have 728 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: seen him coach a game in purple and gold. So 729 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: we finally get to see that in the Superdome, a 730 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: neutral site, I'm told, the super Dome, Louisiana, and we 731 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 1: get to see probably Jaden Daniels at quarterback for LSU. Now, 732 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 1: Brian Kelly is playing it close to the best or 733 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 1: close to the chest as some of my buddies would say. 734 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: But we think, and we have for a couple of 735 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: weeks thought that Jaden Daniels is going to get the 736 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: first look at quarterback there and that has been backed 737 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: up by pretty much everyone I've talked to around the program. 738 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: So here's what we need to watch in this game. 739 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,879 Speaker 1: If you could just tell me one thing, and that 740 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: one thing was how will lsuse defensive line match up 741 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: against this offensive line of FSU. If you could just 742 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,479 Speaker 1: tell me that, if you could confirm my suspicion there, 743 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't even need to watch the game. It 744 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,760 Speaker 1: is my belief that offensive line is the biggest bright 745 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: blinking red light on this FSU team. Fan base knows it. 746 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 1: This is no mystery. But if you haven't been following 747 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: FSU closely, they've had some injury misfortune, I guess, especially 748 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: on the interior. And there is the presence of guys 749 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: like Mayson Smith at LSU, for example, a guy who's 750 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: versatile enough and supremely talented enough to just shift all 751 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,240 Speaker 1: around on that front like some of these Clumson guys 752 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,359 Speaker 1: have been able to do in the past, that you 753 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: could reach a critical mass of unblockability. Shall always say 754 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: Sunday night to where the game is wrecked. And that's 755 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: a risk that Florida State runs. Now, there are ways 756 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,720 Speaker 1: to window dress your way around that, but the bottom 757 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: line is, if you're continually dealing with surge up the 758 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: middle offensively, there's really no page in your playbook that 759 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: accounts for that. The lines on those routes they get 760 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,760 Speaker 1: really zigzagged because you got to cut them off early 761 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: because your receivers don't have adequate time to even complete 762 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: their square ends of square outs and post and so 763 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: it could get a little sideway. So that's the first thing. 764 00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 1: If you could just tell me that, I wouldn't need 765 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: to go through the rest of the breakdown. The most 766 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: basic reason why Florida State could end up winning this though, 767 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 1: is the reason. So it sounds kind of common sensical, 768 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 1: but if you think about it, there's no one player. 769 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: Sometimes when you do breakdowns, or you're trying to bet 770 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,919 Speaker 1: a game. You're trying to look for this one edge, 771 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: and you're trying to look for this one guy that's 772 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,840 Speaker 1: gonna be the reason FSU is gonna win because of 773 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,279 Speaker 1: and then there's one name in the blanket. It sounds 774 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,800 Speaker 1: really good. It's like a fortune cookie. It's like bumper 775 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: sticker logic. I don't know that Florida State has that, 776 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: But what they could have in the aggregate is enough 777 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:29,280 Speaker 1: small gains just through continual progression, slow progression, but progression 778 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 1: under Brian or Mike Norvel. They could have enough that 779 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: the incremental gains add up in the aggregate to a 780 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 1: good enough product to where the team's just flat out 781 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: better than you thought they'd be. It's no one guy. 782 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 1: There's not one guy or one position group that's gotten 783 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: thirty five percent better than last year. They're just a 784 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: little bit better and a little bit better because that's 785 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: what they've done every year under him so far. And 786 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 1: if that has started to maybe scale just a little bit, 787 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 1: there's a little bit steeper slope to the progression. This 788 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: is the kind of game where it could show up 789 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: the line's three LSU's favored by three in Louisiana. So 790 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 1: there are holes on this LSU team too. We don't 791 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: know if they're going to be able to run the ball. 792 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 1: No one in Louisiana knows if they're going to be 793 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 1: able to run the ball. No one knows fully what 794 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: to expect at quarterback. Think you got a good one. 795 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 1: Think you got a really good stable of receivers. Speaking 796 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 1: of those receivers, that is the other potentially glaring mismatch here. 797 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: If there are mismatches, the first one is that LSU 798 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: defensive line against a vulnerable, to say the least FSU 799 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: offensive front. The other one is this stable of receivers 800 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: for LSU could really go to work Sunday night. And 801 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: these are two factors that do not lend a ton 802 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: of confidence to me backing Florida State. But you do 803 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: have to keep in mind this could just as easily 804 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: be an argument made the other way around. LSU starting 805 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: a true freshman at left tackle. He's a really good one. 806 00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 1: His name's Will Campbell, and they feel so good about him. 807 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: He's kind of been entrench during camp and they've been 808 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 1: able to work some guys else wearing cross train here 809 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 1: and cross train there. So listen, this could be just 810 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: an immediate plug and play. We see him every few years. 811 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 1: Bama's had several of them. LSU may have one and 812 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: Will Campbell, but you still have a true freshman there. 813 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: So at the very least you know Jared Verse, for example, 814 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 1: is a transfer that Florida State thinks they hit the 815 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: lottery on. He'll match up against Campbell probably a fair 816 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: amount Sunday night. What if there's vulnerability there? What if 817 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: that's the matchup advantage up front that maybe you don't 818 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: quite see coming in that leads to a blind side 819 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: strip sack that leads to maybe a plus one or 820 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: plus two turnover margin for Florida State over the span 821 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 1: of four quarters. And that's how they win a twenty 822 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,760 Speaker 1: six to twenty three ball game that's in the cards. 823 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 1: We're just trying to play percentages here and figure out 824 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: what's more likely. So let's take a look at the model. 825 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 1: You see what Vegas thinks LSU minus three. As you 826 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: know because I gave this out last week, LSU is 827 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: one of our Ramanudle Express best bets. Much as I 828 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: try to paint the scenario for you, when I think 829 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:58,280 Speaker 1: about the line of scrimmage advantage for LSU's defensive line, 830 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: and when I think about the potential perimeter advantage for 831 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: LSU's wide receivers, I think that they're going to stretch 832 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: it a little bit. And so we're taking LSU to win. 833 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,240 Speaker 1: We're taking them to cover. The model has LSU minus six. 834 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: So there's a little bit of margin difference here between 835 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 1: our models thinking and the Vegas thinking, and we are 836 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: therefore going to not only take LSU to win and cover. 837 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 1: That's one of our best bets of the week. So 838 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,800 Speaker 1: give us the Tigers a happy start for the Brian 839 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 1: Kelly era, and we will do another show before that 840 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 1: game happens. Right before it happens. Challi of Supremacy are 841 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: on the line this week. I've got a brand new 842 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 1: shipment in here as we speak, so I've already shipped 843 00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 1: some of them out to some recipients. Chalice of Supremacy 844 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: is the singular Chaali of supremacy, the plural. You get one, 845 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:47,959 Speaker 1: not because you purchased it, because they're not for sale, 846 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 1: but when you do something that I think spreads the 847 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 1: good word of this show. If you market our show 848 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,400 Speaker 1: in public to such a degree that people take notice 849 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: a lot of you stormed college game day last year 850 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 1: and you got kicked out, got us banned from game day. 851 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: But that's okay because it accomplished the mission. I send 852 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 1: you a chalice of supremacy, which is that little glass 853 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 1: or maybe even a crystal figuring. Let's just call it crystal. 854 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,399 Speaker 1: That little crystal figuring there. You can't see it all 855 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,399 Speaker 1: that well, but you got the Peate State logo carved there. 856 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,799 Speaker 1: It says Pate State Chalice of Supremacy. We don't send 857 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 1: many of those out, guys. It is an honor to 858 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: be able to get one of those. We should put 859 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: serial numbers on them. Chili have supremacy on the line. 860 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: You got to prove to me that you've earned one. 861 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: And it's a very steep standard. But if you meet one, yes, 862 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 1: you will be sending me your address, and I would 863 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: be sending one of those to you. And the opportunities 864 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 1: are all season long. It starts this week. Let's go 865 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 1: back to Thursday night, another Thursday night must see primetime game, 866 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 1: West Virginia at pitt The Backyard Brawl is back. This 867 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 1: is a seven o'clock Eastern time kickoff on ESPN. It's 868 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: one of two mussy games, Penn State Perdue being the 869 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: other one. I did something today I normally don't do. 870 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 1: They have not played this game since twenty eleven, and 871 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: I have missed it. So I did something I don't 872 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: normally do. I took a dive into the history books. 873 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:15,359 Speaker 1: And now, of course there's no threat at all in 874 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 1: forgetting history. I mean, when his history shown us that 875 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: knowing history benefits you, right, paper, pop, time, listen to 876 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: this absurd stat I got to take you all the 877 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: way back to the Great Depression from nineteen twenty four 878 00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: to nineteen forty six. That's twenty games. There was a 879 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 1: little break there for something called World War One. Read 880 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: about it, kids, But for twenty games, Pitt went nineteen 881 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: and one. In this stretch, West Virginia scored sixty six 882 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 1: points in twenty games. So I scurried down the hallway 883 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: to stats in Info, and I said, what is sixty 884 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:51,479 Speaker 1: six divided by twenty? And they said three point three. 885 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,760 Speaker 1: There was a two decade stretch where West Virginia averaged 886 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: three point three points per game. They went one in 887 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: nineteen and at not so coincidentally, it was during the 888 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: Great Depression, so we think we think that Neil Brown 889 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,839 Speaker 1: and Company. He's named J. T. Daniels starting quarterback. We 890 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 1: think they'll score more than three point three. There's no guarantee, 891 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 1: but we think they'll score more than three point three 892 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: this Thursday night. What are we getting at quarterback here? 893 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna let me spare you. Okay, you're gonna see 894 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,319 Speaker 1: this headline the entirety of Thursday. So you got J. T. 895 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 1: Daniels starting at quarterback for West Virginia. You got Keden 896 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: Slovas starting at quarterback for pitt What do they have 897 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: in common? They both played at USC. Yes, it's a 898 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 1: great story. Yes the casuals will drool over it. The 899 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,479 Speaker 1: reason why I sound so ho hum is because we've 900 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: been here for months. We know this, We've seen it 901 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 1: come in, so we're not gonna waste time talking about that. 902 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: We're not a big storyline show, just kind of care 903 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,200 Speaker 1: what happens on the field. So the one thing that 904 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: I want to remind you with J. T. Daniels as 905 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: a lot of lesser informed folks are gonna tell you 906 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,399 Speaker 1: he either got benched or didn't start for Georgia last year. 907 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 1: Because the min and plays funny tricks on you and 908 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 1: when it comes to revisionist history, JT. Daniels started for 909 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 1: the national champ last year. Then he got knocked out, 910 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 1: Then he didn't finish the season, and there was this whole 911 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 1: external drama around that that very few people know the 912 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: whole story behind, and we're not going to be sharing 913 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: that whole story on tonight's show. But he was the 914 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:22,800 Speaker 1: one Kirby Smart and Todd Monkin chose as their starting 915 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: quarterback to begin last year's eventual National championship season for Georgia. 916 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 1: Don't let anyone tell you anything different. Keithen Slovas has 917 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: played way more football than j T. Daniels. But this 918 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 1: is the much bigger story. Keaton slova is starting at 919 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 1: Pitt because of who he replaces, and that's a first 920 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: round quarterback in Kenny Pickett, and there's a lot of 921 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: production there that has to be replaced. Now, this leads 922 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: into what I think is the single biggest factor in 923 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,839 Speaker 1: this game, and that is a lot of people are 924 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: going to yell in your face. Close proximity alert. They're 925 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,320 Speaker 1: going to yell in your face. Pitt won the ACC 926 00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 1: last year, and your proper response should be I couldn't 927 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 1: care less It's not to discount Pitt, far be it 928 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:06,439 Speaker 1: from me to do that. They had a great season 929 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: last year. They got a great team this year. It's 930 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: not discounting what they accomplished last year. It's just telling 931 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: them this says twenty twenty two on the Marquis. This 932 00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 1: game is yet to happen. So what they did last 933 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 1: year doesn't matter. That's just filler because you don't know 934 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 1: anything more about their team. So what is their team 935 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: this year? Well, their team is without that first round 936 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,000 Speaker 1: starting quarterback. Their team is without the Bolitnikoff winner in 937 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,279 Speaker 1: Jordan Addison, and their team is without an offensive coordinator 938 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,720 Speaker 1: that Paton or Doozy himself couldn't care less about, because 939 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 1: he took every opportunity to throw Mark Whipple under the 940 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: bus once he exited stage right, which may seem peculiar 941 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 1: to you. Why would a head coach whose offensive coordinator 942 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: helped him win the conference last year despise his offensive 943 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: coordinator so much? Who knows? That's between those two and 944 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 1: neither one of them took the invitation to hash it 945 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: out here on the show Whipples Out. I think Kignetti 946 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 1: is the offensive coord that's in there now and the 947 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 1: reason why I'm mentioning all this, even though those things 948 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 1: are also in the past, is to tell you if 949 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 1: they're not doing anything they did last year, if they 950 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 1: don't have the critical pieces they had last year, then 951 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: what they accomplished this year will have nothing to do 952 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 1: with last year. So I don't care that they won 953 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: the ACC last year. It's irrelevant to this Thursday night 954 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 1: and the rest of the season. Quarterbacks aren't the main 955 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 1: focus for me here. Now. You're not gonna hear that 956 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 1: very much leading into this game, but Pitt is going 957 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 1: to be fully committed to running the football. If you 958 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: missed what Pat Nordoozy said, and he said it loud, 959 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 1: and he said it a lot the past few months. 960 00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 1: He did not like how frequently they threw the ball 961 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 1: last year. He did not like that they didn't have 962 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 1: the kind of control over games and the grip on 963 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 1: games that running the ball at will gives you, and 964 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 1: he wanted to get back to it. Well, guess what 965 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: they're going to do Thursday night. They're going to try 966 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 1: and get back to that, and that I think may 967 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 1: play a little bit into West Virginia's hands because they 968 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 1: have sort of quietly up there in Morgantown been retooling 969 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 1: their defensive front and it's been a focus for them nationally. 970 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 1: This is not a story that anyone's talked about. They 971 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:09,120 Speaker 1: are very big by West Virginia standards. They're very big 972 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 1: along their defensive front, and they've had to be because 973 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: there's been a shift in the style of play in 974 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 1: the Big twelve. And so if you look at their 975 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,440 Speaker 1: depth chart, you're going to see some three hundred pound 976 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 1: guys and some high two hundred pound guys instead of 977 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: some undersized guys that once upon a time you were 978 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 1: told you need for the pinball offenses in the Big twelve. 979 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 1: Well that's not what they do so much anymore. And 980 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:32,880 Speaker 1: so you got to build, and you've got to have 981 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,640 Speaker 1: strong interior defensive line play. And they've got them there. 982 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:37,880 Speaker 1: They got a couple three three h and fifteen pounders. 983 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: So I wonder as this game starts to unfold, how 984 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 1: successful is pit running the ball. There will be no trickery. 985 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 1: They're going to run it right at them. They're going 986 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: to first make West Virginia prove that what I just 987 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,799 Speaker 1: said matters. They're going to make it prove that they 988 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: can stand up to the run. If they do, that's 989 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 1: when it gets fun to me. If that doesn't happen, 990 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: then it's academic and Pit'll go ahead and win the game. 991 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 1: But here's the balancing act. So that's part one. Part 992 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 1: two of the balancing act is West Virginia needs to 993 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: test this secondary very famously. This secondary has been kind 994 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,879 Speaker 1: of feast or famine Pitts secondary. And when they're good, 995 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: they're really good. But man, they can give up some 996 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 1: big plays through the year. Here's the risk JT. Daniels 997 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 1: in this offense a lot of newness. What if they're 998 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:21,840 Speaker 1: not clicking. What if you just string a bunch of 999 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,839 Speaker 1: three and outs together short drives five plays or less 1000 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,719 Speaker 1: early in the game, and all of a sudden, the 1001 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: critical factors of the game start tilting. We get to 1002 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 1: the end of the first quarter, Pits run twenty two plays, 1003 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,320 Speaker 1: you've run seven. We get to halftime, Pits run forty 1004 00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: six plays, You've run nineteen. Well, that doesn't bode well 1005 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: for the second half. That plays right into their hands. 1006 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: But yet at the same time, you think that your 1007 00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:46,840 Speaker 1: best matchup against them is probably making plays against that secondary. 1008 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,320 Speaker 1: This is football, by the way, This is an age 1009 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:52,879 Speaker 1: old concept. There is the whole risk reward proposition. That's 1010 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,799 Speaker 1: where I think this one will hinge Number one. West 1011 00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 1: Virginia's size upfront and their ability to limit the pit 1012 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 1: ground game. Make Pitt throw the ball on you to win, 1013 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: you know, make Paton Ardoozy put his back to the 1014 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:07,880 Speaker 1: field on third down because he is that anti throwing 1015 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:11,439 Speaker 1: the football, and then secondly, have some success through the air. 1016 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:13,800 Speaker 1: It doesn't take you long to go back and watch J. T. 1017 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: Daniels when he's been healthy in his career and make 1018 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: you say wow, if he throws the ball like that, 1019 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:22,240 Speaker 1: then look out, yeah, look out. Make sure he's healthy. 1020 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 1: Well he is. It's week one, so let's take a 1021 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 1: look at what the model thinks here Vegas. Number Pitt 1022 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:31,360 Speaker 1: is a favorite of seven and a half. The model 1023 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:34,239 Speaker 1: is shorter than that. We've got Pitt minus four and 1024 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:36,839 Speaker 1: a half. And I'm even more bullish than that. So 1025 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 1: I have not done this much in week one, but 1026 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: not only have we taken West Virginia plus the points 1027 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 1: as one of our Rama Noodle Express best bets. I 1028 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 1: think they're actually going to go win the game. So 1029 00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take West Virginia to win the game out 1030 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 1: right close one. But that would really calibrate a lot 1031 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 1: of what Week one could be if this happens on 1032 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 1: Thursday night. The model, the model for the record does 1033 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,880 Speaker 1: like Pit does, like Pitt to win, just shorter. I 1034 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 1: am going to take the added step and put a 1035 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 1: little unit on the money line there. So we're gonna 1036 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,319 Speaker 1: take West Virginia plus the points. We're gonna take West 1037 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 1: Virginia to win the game outright, and if we are correct, 1038 00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 1: let's be the first to congratulate Neil Brown and that 1039 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,880 Speaker 1: coaching staff. Never been done before, congratulating a coach for 1040 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 1: a game he's gonna win forty eight hours from now. 1041 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,279 Speaker 1: But we are a bold show. They're watching us in 1042 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: a to Oklahoma, Phoenix, Arizona, and Greenville, South Carolina. I 1043 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:30,120 Speaker 1: appreciate you guys being tuned in. We need to recap 1044 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,120 Speaker 1: our best bets for a week one Ram and Noodle 1045 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:37,360 Speaker 1: express time. These lines have moved, not my problem. You 1046 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 1: gotta get on them when we give them out, and 1047 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,120 Speaker 1: we gave these out last week because we knew that move. 1048 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 1: We got West Virginia plus seven. We just talked about 1049 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,640 Speaker 1: that game. Louisville minus three and a half. Louisville is 1050 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: playing at Syracuse. I think that is an extremely square number, 1051 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 1: full disclosure, but I cannot ignore what our model says. 1052 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 1: Our model thinks that number is way off. I mean, 1053 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: like a touchdown off. So we're still taking Louisville minus 1054 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: three and a half LSU minus three. We've been on 1055 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: LSU for a week. I think you can still get 1056 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 1: that number though. Now here's one that benefits you. We've 1057 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,120 Speaker 1: got Kent State plus twenty one and a half. They're 1058 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 1: playing Washington. I think you can get a twenty two 1059 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:14,439 Speaker 1: and a half or a twenty three out there. Now 1060 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,760 Speaker 1: we just like it more there. I mean, model loves 1061 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: Kent State. We've got that thing I think at sixteen. 1062 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,479 Speaker 1: So I don't know what in the world they're seeing 1063 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: that we're not, but that model has built a reputation 1064 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 1: enough where we'll trust it. So we're gonna take Kent 1065 00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,800 Speaker 1: State at Washington. That's a late game. If you feel 1066 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: like staying up at an irresponsible hour for week one 1067 00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,760 Speaker 1: on Saturday night, stay up and watch Kent State. Also 1068 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:42,360 Speaker 1: one more reminder, Saturday, it is going to be a 1069 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: very fun day for everyone. Just remember as you're kind 1070 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:51,080 Speaker 1: of rounding out your betting experience, I've got something to 1071 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 1: share with you. We've been working on this in total silence. 1072 00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: Hustle in silence, that's kind of what we do around here. 1073 00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,879 Speaker 1: I have been working with our It's going to sound 1074 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 1: weird when I say this, but it's accurate. Our data 1075 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: science team and we have developed a new product for you. 1076 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: It is going to stream on this YouTube channel during 1077 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 1: the day on Saturday. It's not a show. It's nothing 1078 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 1: like you've ever seen us do before. I know a 1079 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: ton of you are into live betting. There is a 1080 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 1: ton of money to be made in live betting, and I, 1081 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 1: with our data science team, have developed the ability to 1082 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,759 Speaker 1: build a live version of our model. So there are 1083 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 1: going to be select games that we take and we 1084 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 1: plug into that model and we stream on this channel 1085 00:53:39,760 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 1: to where you get a live projection play by play 1086 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 1: of what the model now thinks about the game. So 1087 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,360 Speaker 1: Clemson Georgia Tech Monday night. You know, if the model 1088 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:52,280 Speaker 1: thinks Clemson Mind is twenty three, but Georgia Tech starts 1089 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 1: out ten to nothing, and you want to know what 1090 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 1: that model may think. Now you're going to have it. 1091 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,960 Speaker 1: I'll do you one better. We even have hypothetical scenari 1092 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,880 Speaker 1: built in on the model. So if you're watching LSUFSU 1093 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 1: and you think you may want to live bet this thing, 1094 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,959 Speaker 1: Florida State feels a little better now. They feel pretty 1095 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 1: sure about themselves. If LSU goes three and out here, 1096 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna bet this. That model will tell you 1097 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 1: what the updated projection will be if LSU goes three 1098 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: and out, if they kick a field goal, if they 1099 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 1: score a touchdown. So not only are we going to 1100 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,600 Speaker 1: tell you in real time what the new projection on 1101 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: the game is play by play, we're going to have 1102 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 1: some hypotheticals built in there for you so you can 1103 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:30,320 Speaker 1: get ahead of the curve. I think it's going to 1104 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,520 Speaker 1: be a valuable asset. It is to be used as 1105 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: a resource. You're not to live and die with this thing, 1106 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:36,919 Speaker 1: but it's very good for those of you who watch 1107 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 1: games at home, just ninety five percent of the audience. 1108 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 1: It's going to be a really good tool to just 1109 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: have pulled up on a monitor there and you can 1110 00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 1: keep an eye on it. And if you're into live 1111 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:49,399 Speaker 1: betting anyway, then you want one more resource on your side. 1112 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: That model will be there for you. It won't be 1113 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 1: this huge model with every game on it, but we'll 1114 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:54,560 Speaker 1: have some select games that I think will have a 1115 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,560 Speaker 1: lot of attention on them. You asked for this and 1116 00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 1: I found out that we could do it, so we've 1117 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,440 Speaker 1: done it. We'll have some kinks to work out in 1118 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 1: week one. We'll have this thing worked out by week 1119 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 1: two or week three. So just check out the YouTube 1120 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 1: channel on Saturday. Appreciate you guys so much. Make sure 1121 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:10,319 Speaker 1: you give us a like on the way out. We've 1122 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 1: had big audiences the entire summer. Most of you never left, 1123 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,400 Speaker 1: so I appreciate it. For those of you who have 1124 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 1: come back, do not miss a show, and make sure 1125 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:22,840 Speaker 1: you are subscribed everywhere you can be. That is the 1126 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: name of the game for us. Subscriptions on the YouTube channel, 1127 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 1: subscribe to the podcast. And then, and this is probably 1128 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:32,439 Speaker 1: the most critical part. I got a whisper. Go take 1129 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 1: your mom's phone, Go take your dad's phone, Go take 1130 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 1: your sister's phone. Cousin Elroy if he's in town, take 1131 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: that phone, get in there when they're not looking, and subscribe. 1132 00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 1: Is it ethical? I don't know. Is it helpful? Absolutely? 1133 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 1: So just go do it and apologize later. Thank you 1134 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 1: guys so much.
