Speaker 1: Substitute. We've got a substitute in the bullpen. I've told
2:00
Speaker 1: people that Rusty got sick watching the Rangers for the
2:03
Speaker 1: last seven days, and I think there's some truth to that.
2:07
Speaker 1: So he's he's a little under the weather. He's on IL.
2:10
Speaker 1: Alex Miller is here and we're always glad to have
2:13
Speaker 1: Alex in Uh and Cease and Alex and I were
2:17
Speaker 1: at the ELKO conference today where we're talking. I think
2:20
Speaker 1: it's the shortest one we've had all year, don't.
2:22
Speaker 9: You think in quite a while? Eleven minutes. I can't remember.
2:25
Speaker 1: It's usually twenty to twenty three minutes, because I you know,
2:28
Speaker 1: I take you right, you're right, you're right. Well.
2:30
Speaker 2: And what was funny was at the beginning he joked about, oh, man,
2:34
Speaker 2: I'm sure you guys have so many things to ask
2:36
Speaker 2: me questions. Yeah, yeah, yeah, which I still asked. I
2:39
Speaker 2: still asked him two questions. You asked him a couple
2:41
Speaker 2: cease asked him a.
2:42
Speaker 1: Couple of Oh, it wasn't real. There weren't a ton
2:46
Speaker 1: of people there today. No, we were talking off about
2:49
Speaker 1: the president. I didn't even think about that. That was
2:50
Speaker 1: a really good question about how is this going to
2:53
Speaker 1: affect you, right, because now you've got a new president
2:57
Speaker 1: coming in, you've got to break in somebody else.
3:00
Speaker 2: Uh.
3:00
Speaker 1: And he he wasn't terribly forthcoming about that. Yeah, I mean,
3:05
Speaker 1: but I understand why.
3:07
Speaker 2: Yeah. His main point is he just wants alignment, right,
3:10
Speaker 2: And I think that's the buzzworth that everybody that everybody
3:14
Speaker 2: talks about when it when they think of athletic administration
3:17
Speaker 2: or university administration. You want alignment in.
3:21
Speaker 1: Which this school, frankly has been notorious not having.
3:24
Speaker 2: Not having No This will be aam's fourth president in
3:27
Speaker 2: the last five years. That's here's nell I give a
3:30
Speaker 2: lot of turnover.
3:31
Speaker 9: One thing Bork was right on is A and M
3:33
Speaker 9: lacks stability. When you look at football coach a D president. Now,
3:38
Speaker 9: he spent too much money trying to make that alignment
3:40
Speaker 9: that A and M ended up paying. So that wasn't
3:43
Speaker 9: good on works part. But when you look at the
3:47
Speaker 9: deal with ELCA right now, I have to laugh that
3:49
Speaker 9: AAM did this string an open week because right now,
3:52
Speaker 9: from all I can ascertain, the three were pretty well
3:56
Speaker 9: in order. Albert Welch Elcho gone along, so no big deal.
4:03
Speaker 9: Then all of a sudden new president comes in and
4:06
Speaker 9: I equate it to gone back when Bear Bryant used
4:10
Speaker 9: to talk about the football, only one thing can be good.
4:14
Speaker 9: You can stay the same, fall incomplete or you know,
4:18
Speaker 9: catch it, you know, or get intercepted. Well, it's the
4:20
Speaker 9: same way. So things could stay the same they were,
4:24
Speaker 9: get better or got worse. Well, if if nothing changes,
4:27
Speaker 9: it stays the good. So if your elco you're hoping that,
4:30
Speaker 9: you know, two out of three beats one out of three.
4:32
Speaker 1: When do you have an administrator however that comes in
4:36
Speaker 1: and because everybody always says the same thing, Hey, I
4:39
Speaker 1: don't want to screw anything up where where you know
4:41
Speaker 1: we're going great, But when does that ever happen? I
4:44
Speaker 1: mean a guy comes in, he's got to put his
4:46
Speaker 1: mark on things.
4:47
Speaker 9: Right exactly, because one they always say is I foresee.
4:50
Speaker 1: No major exactly, no major changes.
4:53
Speaker 9: And you go around behind and people are putting your
4:55
Speaker 9: stuff in your desk, yeah, in boxes.
4:57
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And I mean, what do we know about
5:00
Speaker 2: university president searches? They take a while. Yes, A and
5:03
Speaker 2: M may not have a new president in place until
5:06
Speaker 2: sometime next spring. It's that's very conceivable. And you think
5:13
Speaker 2: about when Elko was hired, Mark Welsh was still just
5:16
Speaker 2: the interim president. He hadn't even been named the full
5:19
Speaker 2: time president. That came the month after Elko was hired.
5:23
Speaker 2: And not to mention, ross By Orck was the AD
5:26
Speaker 2: that hired Mike Elko. So now he's got a new
5:28
Speaker 2: AD who took for all intents and purposes, they seem
5:32
Speaker 2: to get along just fine. There's not there does not
5:34
Speaker 2: seem to be an issue or a riff there, but
5:37
Speaker 2: different ad different president, different chancellor, even from when Elko
5:41
Speaker 2: is hired. That's that is a lot of change. And
5:44
Speaker 2: it hadn't even been two years since Elko has been here.
5:47
Speaker 1: Hey, I've got a theory. If Elko wins the rest
5:51
Speaker 1: of his games, nobody will care who's above him or
5:54
Speaker 1: below him.
5:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point, true.
5:57
Speaker 9: But always what happens is all he might hire a
6:02
Speaker 9: they might hire president has nothing to do with I likes,
6:04
Speaker 9: which is very true. But they always have friends and oh, hey,
6:09
Speaker 9: this guy wants to come or this woman wants to
6:10
Speaker 9: come be my AD. I hower a lot from you know,
6:13
Speaker 9: we've been together for twenty years or whatever. You always
6:16
Speaker 9: worry about when you're when you're looking at that buffer zone.
6:19
Speaker 9: The president could not care about athletics. Love Elko, but
6:23
Speaker 9: if he brings somebody in, that's an upshot that, oh
6:26
Speaker 9: I'm going to be an ad. I'm gonna this is
6:28
Speaker 9: what I've always wanted to do. And it's what you say, Chip.
6:32
Speaker 9: Everybody wants to leave their mark. You don't want anybody say, oh, man,
6:35
Speaker 9: Albert was just Rossbrook number two. That's why we're so
6:40
Speaker 9: glad that No, you got to be different.
6:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to be different. And one thing I
6:44
Speaker 2: thought that was very interesting. If you look at trev
6:46
Speaker 2: Albert's contract, there is a clause in there that if
6:49
Speaker 2: Mark Welsh resigned or left his post, that his buyout
6:53
Speaker 2: would be reduced.
6:56
Speaker 1: Substantial.
6:56
Speaker 9: It's not like A and M needs to save money,
6:58
Speaker 9: like they're going to pay a former coach or something.
7:04
Speaker 1: Let's have another concert.
7:06
Speaker 2: Hey, I'd be happy if George Straight came back. The
7:09
Speaker 2: concert was awesome.
7:11
Speaker 1: Let's say, let's go. Let's go.
7:14
Speaker 2: Let's okay. If you if if Kyle Field could host
7:17
Speaker 2: a concert and you were picking the person to come,
7:20
Speaker 2: Dolly pardon, that's who do you pick? Yes? Who would
7:22
Speaker 2: you pick?
7:23
Speaker 1: Because I cannot afford to go see her in Las Vegas?
7:26
Speaker 2: Okay, who would you pick?
7:28
Speaker 9: I'm not a concert guy, you know.
7:30
Speaker 2: Sorry, Well that's not a surprise.
7:34
Speaker 1: Uh Eagles for me? Okay, Okay, they could fill the stadium.
7:40
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think she would ever come here.
7:45
Speaker 2: But Taylor Swift, Taylor, she could fill it up, and
7:49
Speaker 2: she could break the record that George Straight said, no doubt,
7:53
Speaker 2: and that's something that she would go for. But I
7:55
Speaker 2: find it hard to believe that she would actually come
7:57
Speaker 2: to a concert here in College Station, Texas that would
7:59
Speaker 2: probably have to be in the summer. I find it
8:01
Speaker 2: hard to believe. Yeah, never say never, but I find
8:04
Speaker 2: it hard to believe.
8:04
Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't pay to sere, but that's just me,
8:07
Speaker 1: My my daughter and granddaughters.
8:09
Speaker 2: My sister. Would she flew to New York.
8:12
Speaker 1: No, I understand it. She would, she would fill us out.
8:15
Speaker 1: You just asked me what I thought.
8:17
Speaker 2: Well, that's fair. But that's fair.
8:19
Speaker 9: You know, maybe they should get a religious concert because
8:21
Speaker 9: a needs all the help they can get.
8:23
Speaker 1: Well, I mean that there's a few that could probably
8:25
Speaker 1: fill that up to what do you think? Okay them,
8:29
Speaker 1: come on, Eagles. Eagles might be your pick. I mean,
8:34
Speaker 1: I've seen the Eagles several times, and they cost a
8:37
Speaker 1: lot of money. But when you put them in a
8:38
Speaker 1: hundred thousand seats versus like fifteen thousand, Vin's gill kind
8:44
Speaker 1: of comes and goes. But yes, the answer is.
8:46
Speaker 2: Yes, hey making the Eagles relevant. A and M's unveiled
8:50
Speaker 2: their nineteen seventy five throwback uniforms today, which they teased
8:54
Speaker 2: last week with a song from the Eagles.
8:58
Speaker 1: Nice. Well, I talk about this, it doesn't and and
9:04
Speaker 1: I it doesn't have anything to do with selling extra merchandise,
9:08
Speaker 1: and that's what I love. They they didn't do it
9:10
Speaker 1: so they would introduce you know, nineteen seventy they did.
9:16
Speaker 9: Got those emails. I must have missed that came out today.
9:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna wear them.
9:21
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. Oh, that's that's the only reason they're
9:25
Speaker 1: doing it, exactly. I mean, that's what why why else
9:27
Speaker 1: would you do it? There's money to be that.
9:29
Speaker 9: It's all about money.
9:31
Speaker 1: I don't care about the well.
9:33
Speaker 2: And what I thought was funny is you know, I'm
9:35
Speaker 2: in a group text with a bunch of buddies from
9:37
Speaker 2: college and they're all Aggie fans, and they're like this,
9:39
Speaker 2: this throwback uniform is just underwhelming. I'm like, guys, this
9:43
Speaker 2: was a jersey from the seventies that just had numbers
9:46
Speaker 2: and stripes on it. Like, what do you expect Oregon?
9:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I see George Woodard running up the middle
9:52
Speaker 1: of that jersey.
9:53
Speaker 9: Now I think about it. How about a concert of
9:55
Speaker 9: Willie Nelson for an hour and a half. Man, then
9:57
Speaker 9: you bring in Tomlin and I wicked to go ahead
10:01
Speaker 9: and everybody, everybody, we're all good.
10:07
Speaker 1: Wow, we're all good.
10:08
Speaker 2: That would be a time. Yeah, you get you buy
10:11
Speaker 2: a ticket to that just to people watch.
10:13
Speaker 1: Would I would buy a ticket?
10:14
Speaker 2: I would buy a ticket.
10:15
Speaker 1: Okay, enough of that before we get into football and Auburn.
10:20
Speaker 1: While I'm thinking about it, Bruce Pearl resigned today, walked
10:24
Speaker 1: away eleven years.
10:26
Speaker 9: Uh your buddy too. Did you call you?
10:29
Speaker 1: They did not call me. But but as I told Rusty,
10:33
Speaker 1: he will make the perfect United States Senator. I can't
10:37
Speaker 1: think of anybody that would embody a US senator better
10:40
Speaker 1: than Bruce Pearl.
10:42
Speaker 2: Well, that's part of that's part of the plan, right,
10:44
Speaker 2: Like like with Tubberville running for governor Weberville, there are
10:47
Speaker 2: many people that think he's gonna run for that Senate's correct,
10:50
Speaker 2: and it's not. It is not surprising that they announced
10:54
Speaker 2: this in September when the easy move is to pass
10:58
Speaker 2: the baton off to his son. He has said repeatedly
11:02
Speaker 2: that that would be the ideal situation.
11:04
Speaker 1: By the way, when's the last time that worked out?
11:08
Speaker 1: Can you can you think of when that worked out?
11:11
Speaker 9: Because look at Bobby Knight and his son.
11:13
Speaker 2: I mean, well, isn't Houston gonna try and do that
11:15
Speaker 2: eventually with the Samsons?
11:17
Speaker 9: Yes, yeah, good question. Keyword chip has it try?
11:20
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean, it's just well.
11:22
Speaker 2: That's good news for A and M because he just
11:24
Speaker 2: signed a five year contract. They always say those saying.
11:27
Speaker 9: They say those eight Carns don't fall far off the tree,
11:30
Speaker 9: except when your coaches.
11:31
Speaker 1: Well, that's a deal. It was a whole different deal.
11:33
Speaker 1: I mean, and you know, everybody says, oh, this guy
11:35
Speaker 1: is a great defensive coach. And he may be. I
11:38
Speaker 1: don't know enough about it. He may be a great
11:40
Speaker 1: defensive coach. That has nothing to do with being a
11:43
Speaker 1: head coach in any sport at a major program, not.
11:46
Speaker 9: Not in basketball. Three minutes ago and you got trouble.
11:49
Speaker 9: I don't care what it was or in football.
11:50
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter.
11:51
Speaker 9: When you're Notre Dame, you're down by it doesn't matter.
11:54
Speaker 1: You know, there's a reason these guys make what they
11:56
Speaker 1: make is because they win those games. And uh, he
12:00
Speaker 1: may he may be the exception to the rule, but
12:03
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, Aggie, fans are hoping, you know, he's
12:06
Speaker 1: not the exception to the role. That's one less program
12:09
Speaker 1: you have to worry about.
12:10
Speaker 2: Maybe Bruce Pearl realized he accidentally scheduled Buzz Williams a
12:14
Speaker 2: game against buzz this year. He had a hard time against.
12:17
Speaker 9: It couldn't be buzz. What is the best collegiate basketball
12:21
Speaker 9: or football? Son and son and Matt, I don't know.
12:25
Speaker 2: I can't think he I mean, Sonny Dyke's played for
12:28
Speaker 2: national championship.
12:29
Speaker 1: But that's a good good point. And his dad never did.
12:32
Speaker 1: But his dad never But that's a good point.
12:34
Speaker 2: Well, and TCU is starting to prove this year that
12:36
Speaker 2: maybe that wasn't the one him.
12:38
Speaker 1: Have a quarterback like he does, you become a pretty
12:40
Speaker 1: good football That's a good combo.
12:43
Speaker 9: Even though I wouldn't say Spikes as much success as
12:46
Speaker 9: the son, but Spike had successful.
12:48
Speaker 2: Okay, the Bowdens were pretty good.
12:51
Speaker 1: They were absolutely.
12:53
Speaker 2: Tommy Tommy was pretty solid at Auburn that Jimbo. Jimbo
12:56
Speaker 2: got a lot of build up from that.
12:59
Speaker 9: Yes, I was just going to say, once again, Tommy
13:02
Speaker 9: just didn't quite match up to what Bobby did.
13:04
Speaker 1: You Well, okay, that's not fair.
13:06
Speaker 2: Now he's one of the greatest coach pearl and I.
13:09
Speaker 1: Will deny that I said this. He's he's going to
13:13
Speaker 1: be a Hall of Fame coach, right, Oh yeah, okay,
13:16
Speaker 1: so that's in any level. I've always said, when you
13:21
Speaker 1: trade a Hall of Fame player in any sport, you
13:23
Speaker 1: will never ever ever get equal value. Okay, yes you can.
13:32
Speaker 1: You cannot get equal value getting rid of a Hall
13:36
Speaker 1: of Fame player. Well, you can't do that with a
13:38
Speaker 1: coach either, I mean almost never, and especially a coach's son.
13:42
Speaker 1: So you're right. I mean a m should be happy
13:45
Speaker 1: that Bruce Pearl, even though they had some success against them,
13:48
Speaker 1: that he's walking away.
13:49
Speaker 2: Well, and I think that, if I remember correctly, Auburn
13:53
Speaker 2: is the second.
13:54
Speaker 1: Bennett in basketball that week. Thank you, Caleb. There's been
13:59
Speaker 1: a few.
14:00
Speaker 2: I think that AM plays Auburn pretty early in the
14:02
Speaker 2: conference slate this next year. Good, that's good, which could well,
14:06
Speaker 2: it could be a good thing. We still got to
14:08
Speaker 2: see how this AE men's basketball team is gonna gel
14:10
Speaker 2: with all these new guys, this big system. We're gonna
14:13
Speaker 2: see that's gonna be a work in progress.
14:15
Speaker 1: Look at us talking basketball and in September, this is
14:20
Speaker 1: a basketball show.
14:21
Speaker 9: It always president, that's pro basketball from Duke.
14:26
Speaker 2: From Duke there.
14:29
Speaker 1: There, you reach out to play basketball? Yes right, yeah
14:32
Speaker 1: they did. All right, let's let's talk a little little football.
14:39
Speaker 1: Unbelievable schedule coming up a week before last was incredible.
14:44
Speaker 1: This coming week is just going to be amazing, an
14:49
Speaker 1: amazing time of football. Let's let's start here a bit
14:52
Speaker 1: a week off. I know A and M fans are
14:54
Speaker 1: chomping at the bit. I know they're looking forward to
14:57
Speaker 1: this game on Saturday. Uh. In my opinion, UH, A
15:03
Speaker 1: and M fans should be looking forward to this game
15:07
Speaker 1: because I'm still not a fan of the quarterback at
15:09
Speaker 1: Auburn and what Oklahoma did to him, keeping him in
15:13
Speaker 1: the pocket and refusing to let him beat them with
15:17
Speaker 1: his legs. I mean, that's the formula, make him throw
15:20
Speaker 1: the football. And of course they rushed him, and I
15:22
Speaker 1: don't know if A and M can put that kind
15:25
Speaker 1: of rush together, but but they overwhelmed him. He has
15:29
Speaker 1: appeared to me to be a little slow in his
15:32
Speaker 1: decision making because there were times he had he had
15:35
Speaker 1: time and you know, you should have a clock in
15:37
Speaker 1: the back of your head, and he's waited like five
15:39
Speaker 1: seconds before he's just getting lit up, right, and I'm going,
15:42
Speaker 1: you gotta get rid of the ball.
15:44
Speaker 2: Yeah. Arnolds had an interesting college career. I mean, he
15:46
Speaker 2: was one of the best, and you watched him play
15:50
Speaker 2: at guy Er and You're like, Wow, this kid's incredible.
15:55
Speaker 1: Haibacs and fairness come down the pike like that.
15:57
Speaker 2: That's true, that's true. But you you think get six
16:00
Speaker 2: A in Texas that a guy that is proving that.
16:04
Speaker 1: In the same he has a guy as a head
16:06
Speaker 1: coach now that has a history with quarterbacks right.
16:09
Speaker 2: Well, and you know the same could be said for
16:11
Speaker 2: Cave Club Nicket Clemson right now, Clemson is really reeling.
16:14
Speaker 2: That's a separate issue.
16:15
Speaker 1: I never saw that comic, by the way, but Auburn.
16:18
Speaker 2: And Clemson they're modeled after each other, so maybe it
16:20
Speaker 2: is a relevant issue. Anyway. I think that I think
16:24
Speaker 2: that Arnold Elco should be maybe sending Brent Venables a
16:29
Speaker 2: thank you note this week for laying a little bit
16:32
Speaker 2: of a blueprint on how to how to stop that offense,
16:35
Speaker 2: because ain't him had a really hard time stopping that
16:38
Speaker 2: offense last year.
16:39
Speaker 9: I'll say yes and no, because I watched the game
16:42
Speaker 9: one fold. One thing Bred Runnables can do is is
16:45
Speaker 9: coach defense, and I wonder if he's still gonna make
16:47
Speaker 9: it because you got to have be able to score.
16:50
Speaker 9: And then I'm watching the game one fold and a
16:53
Speaker 9: lot of baggage for Arnold gone back to Oklahoma, so
16:57
Speaker 9: that's a huge game for him. He didn't give any
16:59
Speaker 9: interviews during week, and I go, that's probably bad. Even
17:02
Speaker 9: they could say it's good. But my point being is
17:04
Speaker 9: I get back to everything that you said, Chip. I
17:06
Speaker 9: agree one hundred percent how they won the game, but
17:09
Speaker 9: get Auburn almost won they game they did. That being said,
17:12
Speaker 9: is Auburn's gonna use that film and say, Okay, this
17:16
Speaker 9: is what we got to do. Next time they bring
17:18
Speaker 9: this pasture, next time they bring six, this is what
17:20
Speaker 9: we're going to do. We're gonna do quick screens to
17:22
Speaker 9: Coleman over those guys. You're gonna complete a five yard
17:25
Speaker 9: pass and it's going to be fifty yards. And so
17:28
Speaker 9: they're gonna adjust. I'm not gonna say it's gonna work,
17:30
Speaker 9: but they're going to adjust. And so I think they
17:33
Speaker 9: made Mike Elko's job tougher because I don't still don't
17:37
Speaker 9: know how good this A and M defense is.
17:39
Speaker 1: Well you bring that up because they could not run
17:43
Speaker 1: the football against Oklahoma. No, right, they just absolutely and
17:48
Speaker 1: finally just quit trying, right, I mean quit trying. They
17:51
Speaker 1: could not run the football.
17:53
Speaker 2: Which is in part why you got sacked nine times.
17:55
Speaker 1: Correct, And as you mentioned, Sason, I'm not sure that
18:02
Speaker 1: A and M can do that yet they haven't. I
18:05
Speaker 1: don't know they say that they can do that.
18:08
Speaker 2: Then here's two things going in A M's favor. One,
18:10
Speaker 2: they're playing at home. No doubt that's gonna help a
18:12
Speaker 2: ton Number Two, Auburn's gonna stop A and M's offense.
18:16
Speaker 2: AM's offense has been pretty dang good this year, and
18:18
Speaker 2: with a week off to for Reid to look back
18:21
Speaker 2: at the film, because look, he could have thrown for
18:23
Speaker 2: five hundred yards if he hits a couple of the
18:25
Speaker 2: other those downfield throws. Against Notre Dame, he threw what
18:29
Speaker 2: less than fifty percent of his passes completed. Yeah, he
18:33
Speaker 2: has so much room to grow coming off of a
18:35
Speaker 2: game that people are thinking this guy's in the Heisman
18:38
Speaker 2: conversation now, which is kind of crazy to think. And oh,
18:41
Speaker 2: by the way, amams run game hadn't even gotten fully
18:44
Speaker 2: going yet, so I think.
18:47
Speaker 1: It's got a nice front four. I will say that.
18:49
Speaker 2: I don't know what the over in this game is,
18:51
Speaker 2: but I might if I was sports betting, I might
18:54
Speaker 2: be hitting it.
18:54
Speaker 1: Because you think there's gonna be points now.
18:57
Speaker 2: I think there's gonna be points, especially on A and
18:59
Speaker 2: M's And by.
18:59
Speaker 1: The way, Russ, he just texted in and mentioned Mike
19:01
Speaker 1: and Kyle Shanahan. So forget everything I said about sons
19:05
Speaker 1: not being able.
19:06
Speaker 9: That more NFL though, but doesn't.
19:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm telling you, you know still fathers and
19:10
Speaker 1: sons that have had success.
19:11
Speaker 9: I think you still need to put it out there. Okay, Uh, yeah,
19:15
Speaker 9: I agree with you.
19:18
Speaker 1: I think this a offense is capable of the ball
19:21
Speaker 1: gets almost anybody, right. Uh, but man, this is a
19:27
Speaker 1: this is a different animal starting Saturday. We know that, right,
19:31
Speaker 1: If you've watched all these games already this conference play,
19:35
Speaker 1: When that starts, that is a whole different deal.
19:38
Speaker 9: And I think that's why I never would bet on
19:41
Speaker 9: a andem football games. I think Auburn's key is to
19:46
Speaker 9: all control the balls Nickel and don A and m
19:49
Speaker 9: let Jackson use his leg com meet small price, keep
19:52
Speaker 9: the ball away from a andem because AAM does have
19:54
Speaker 9: an explosive offense, and uh, with Dirkin on defense, a
19:58
Speaker 9: lot of Aggies say, oh, I enjoy that, but he's
20:01
Speaker 9: gonna put in an extra work. This is a big
20:03
Speaker 9: game for Dark and so I don't know, I would
20:06
Speaker 9: bet if I had a better dollar, I'd bet it
20:08
Speaker 9: would be someone high scoring. You might need thirty five
20:11
Speaker 9: to win, But then I don't know, because Albert's got
20:14
Speaker 9: a good place kicker. So if they go ahead and
20:16
Speaker 9: just Nickel and Dinmy to death and try to go
20:18
Speaker 9: down and get field goals. This is why what Chip said,
20:21
Speaker 9: it's a huge game sec opener. And I'm thinking, you know,
20:24
Speaker 9: and I'm trying to do a calling for tomorrow, and
20:26
Speaker 9: I'm thinking about, you know, that's a game adem should
20:28
Speaker 9: have won, but they didn't. And you think about how
20:31
Speaker 9: few wins Auburn had last year, but that.
20:33
Speaker 1: Was one of them.
20:34
Speaker 2: That was one of them. Two other things I think's
20:36
Speaker 2: going in AM's favor. I think A and M's out
20:39
Speaker 2: out for a little bit of vengeance on that game
20:40
Speaker 2: last year after that yet and I think we saw
20:43
Speaker 2: that in the way that A ANDAM played against Notre Dame.
20:46
Speaker 2: The other thing is because A andem was actually able
20:49
Speaker 2: to finish and get over that hurdle against Notre Dame,
20:53
Speaker 2: that Amam's got thatt Amam's got that mental advantage now
20:57
Speaker 2: that that intangible that I think will help them if
21:00
Speaker 2: the game comes down to the line as as Auburn
21:03
Speaker 2: had last week against Oklahoma. If that's in a similar
21:06
Speaker 2: situation and they get into overtime like they did last year,
21:09
Speaker 2: A and has been able to be there, be there
21:11
Speaker 2: and have finished. I'm curious if that can help them
21:13
Speaker 2: too in this game.
21:14
Speaker 9: With I doubt because A and M has been the situation.
21:17
Speaker 9: I had to chuckle. A and M has had a
21:19
Speaker 9: lot of signature, a big victory since nineteen ninety eight,
21:22
Speaker 9: but they just can't follow them up. They have them,
21:24
Speaker 9: they even have two out of five or whatever, and
21:27
Speaker 9: they just don't get over it. Now this that was
21:29
Speaker 9: such a huge victory. Now you have to add to it.
21:32
Speaker 9: You can't slip up against Auburn. This is all this
21:35
Speaker 9: to me, This is a must win game because you're
21:38
Speaker 9: just gonna give back the victory you had. And I
21:40
Speaker 9: noticed I think the flight spread was six and a half.
21:42
Speaker 9: So once again, that's one interception, that's one fumble. And
21:46
Speaker 9: then when you're looking at the SEC so much talented
21:49
Speaker 9: out there and you're watching, you gotta watch. You couldn't
21:51
Speaker 9: take your eyes off the Oklahoma Auburn game because you
21:54
Speaker 9: just didn't know it. You knew one play was gonna
21:55
Speaker 9: win or one play was gonna lose it.
21:57
Speaker 2: Well, and you look at you look at how next
22:00
Speaker 2: month is kind of shaping up. It's not inconceivable that
22:03
Speaker 2: AAM could go to Baton Rouge in late October and
22:06
Speaker 2: be seven to oh, probably playing for another first place
22:08
Speaker 2: spot in the SEC against what's been a pretty good
22:11
Speaker 2: LSU team so far this year. But Adam's got to
22:13
Speaker 2: take care of business and that's something they haven't done
22:15
Speaker 2: in recent years.
22:16
Speaker 9: Don't slip up, and we've already seen you always worry
22:21
Speaker 9: about injuries because we're seeing more of it in college.
22:24
Speaker 9: I think once again, as all these games get down
22:26
Speaker 9: to one possession, kids are putting out all they have
22:30
Speaker 9: and then suddenly you're paying a lot for that left tackle,
22:33
Speaker 9: you're playing a lot for that middle linebacker, and suddenly
22:35
Speaker 9: somebody loses somebody. It's a big drop off, a big
22:39
Speaker 9: drop off, because it's just like the NFL. Suddenly they've
22:42
Speaker 9: got to go to their scout team, and you go
22:43
Speaker 9: to your scout team, they get they get host and
22:47
Speaker 9: if you got in college, you're going to go to
22:49
Speaker 9: your scout team, so to speak, you're gonna give up plays.
22:52
Speaker 1: Well, we're under fifty two and a half.
22:54
Speaker 2: Okay, Hi, okay, Well, and to your point about injuries, cease.
22:57
Speaker 2: I mean, we know that Bryce Anderson's not going to
22:59
Speaker 2: play this week. I think we're all glad to hear
23:01
Speaker 2: that he's doing.
23:01
Speaker 1: Okay, doesn't look like Scooby's going to play.
23:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's very questionable. Now. Sanford had a really
23:07
Speaker 2: great game, but you know that's that's a hard act
23:11
Speaker 2: to following game. That's one game and he was jacked up.
23:15
Speaker 2: And so you know, with Auburn's ability to throw the
23:18
Speaker 2: ball particularly, how does A and M maybe a little
23:21
Speaker 2: bit thin at safety?
23:23
Speaker 1: Those receivers are really good and that's as we mentioned,
23:28
Speaker 1: that was really the only rise we got out of
23:31
Speaker 1: Elko today is when they.
23:32
Speaker 2: Asked him, he really kind of went.
23:34
Speaker 1: He kind of lit up on those guys.
23:36
Speaker 10: Right.
23:37
Speaker 1: I as good as Cam Coleman is and he certainly
23:41
Speaker 1: had a huge role a year ago. Aggie fans won't
23:43
Speaker 1: forget that. Uh he can make those acrobatic catches. He's
23:47
Speaker 1: got the speed to get you know, to get separation.
23:51
Speaker 1: I'm just not a Jackson Arnold fan. I don't have
23:55
Speaker 1: the confidence that he can. He could do it once
23:59
Speaker 1: maybe I don't have the confidence he could continually do it,
24:03
Speaker 1: even if those guys are better than the A and M. Secondary.
24:06
Speaker 9: Yeah, I've seen enough of Arnold because I watched the
24:09
Speaker 9: Baylor game because it was on a Friday two and
24:12
Speaker 9: I watched this game and he ran. He just misses
24:15
Speaker 9: too many open receivers. And that's my knock A little
24:18
Speaker 9: bit on read is what you said, Alex, how can
24:20
Speaker 9: you knock a guy that everybody has in the Heisman race?
24:23
Speaker 9: And I said, I'm saying, man, he needed to complete
24:26
Speaker 9: four more passes in Notre Dame. The guys were open,
24:28
Speaker 9: he wasn't rushed, and he missed them. He's you can't
24:31
Speaker 9: miss guys when they're that open, because ain't im almost
24:34
Speaker 9: lost that game. If that guy's incomplete, those misses he
24:37
Speaker 9: made would have been haunting this team, right.
24:39
Speaker 1: And I would argue in conference play, it's even more crucial. Right,
24:42
Speaker 1: It's like mistake. You've already said, what one miss throw
24:46
Speaker 1: one mistake, But he's taken care of the ball.
24:48
Speaker 9: And I do like to argue Notre Dame was a
24:51
Speaker 9: great SEC type game and he went in there and won.
24:54
Speaker 1: That was huge.
24:56
Speaker 9: He won despite missing those guys and he protects them
24:58
Speaker 9: all a lot better than he did last year, So
25:00
Speaker 9: huge steps forward. But hey, hey kid, it's only one game.
25:05
Speaker 9: What do you do for me?
25:06
Speaker 1: Now?
25:07
Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see too, how Auburn covers Mario
25:11
Speaker 2: Craver now that that has been the go to guy
25:16
Speaker 2: these first three games, and what that does for other
25:18
Speaker 2: guys like KC or Terry Bussey or Ashton Bethel Roman.
25:22
Speaker 2: Those two guys haven't really had too much going so
25:26
Speaker 2: far because Craver and Case have been so good. Quite frankly,
25:31
Speaker 2: how does Ana maybe open it up and get to
25:33
Speaker 2: their third, fourth, fifth guy to spread it out a
25:36
Speaker 2: little bit? If if somebody finally starts to begin to
25:39
Speaker 2: take away the number one or number two guy a
25:41
Speaker 2: little more.
25:42
Speaker 9: And we also know Moss can rush for one twenty
25:44
Speaker 9: five or one fifty. So what is what is DJ
25:47
Speaker 9: Darkin gonna take away from A and M. Because that's
25:50
Speaker 9: my question, what is he gonna do?
25:51
Speaker 2: He's gonna be smiling on the sideline, That's.
25:54
Speaker 1: What he's gonna be doing. We're gonna take a break.

30:33
Speaker 1: need to help me with this. They keep saying. John
30:37
Speaker 1: Mattier right now is the leading candidate, and maybe people
30:43
Speaker 1: are seeing what I am.
30:44
Speaker 9: I'm not seeing that. I mean, you played well late,
30:46
Speaker 9: didn't make mistakes, small quarter, small palaces ten for ten,
30:50
Speaker 9: very efficient, but once again, is much like the rankings
30:54
Speaker 9: which I'm an apo going to laught feedback. Here's the deal.
30:58
Speaker 9: It's still so early, we still't have enough enough. You
31:01
Speaker 9: want to throw things out there while three team when
31:04
Speaker 9: each team plays three gimmes, just wait a while, yes,
31:07
Speaker 9: wait a while.
31:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, because we've.
31:08
Speaker 9: Given to every year we do this, We've given the
31:11
Speaker 9: heisman already to Kuberaneks. He's throwing it back Nick. Yes,
31:15
Speaker 9: they give it to excuse me, they give it to
31:17
Speaker 9: Arch first.
31:18
Speaker 1: We got it to Arch. But let me just say it.
31:20
Speaker 1: I said this last week Archy, I think Louis asked me,
31:24
Speaker 1: is Arch still number one on your list? I said, well,
31:26
Speaker 1: of course he is. But and this was before the
31:28
Speaker 1: same Houston game. I said, he's going to have to
31:31
Speaker 1: prove it. He's going to have to throw a touchdown
31:33
Speaker 1: pass against Sam Houston, and he's going to have to
31:36
Speaker 1: complete more than fifty percent of his passes for him
31:39
Speaker 1: to still be number one on my list. And by golly,
31:41
Speaker 1: he went out and did it. So I don't know
31:44
Speaker 1: how anybody doesn't have a never mind. Okay, I'll tell
31:47
Speaker 1: you who's number one on mine. He's one of mind
31:49
Speaker 1: to which was two zeros after Haines King. Right now,
31:53
Speaker 1: right now, right now, I love Haynes King. He's my guy.
31:57
Speaker 9: When I watch that kid play the clips, I see,
32:00
Speaker 9: am I crazy? He's great?
32:02
Speaker 1: But he's my guy right now?
32:05
Speaker 9: Okay, right now, what I see he's the top three
32:09
Speaker 9: with the best players.
32:10
Speaker 2: Okay, he's not going to win that.
32:11
Speaker 1: He wasn't at Georgia Tech. If he was at Ohio
32:15
Speaker 1: State or or pick up big school.
32:17
Speaker 2: Clemson, Texas, A and M. That's funny.
32:21
Speaker 1: I know TCU. I like Josh Ouver a lot too.
32:25
Speaker 1: By the way, Hoover's had a couple of gig games.
32:27
Speaker 1: He can spin it. He can spin it. But but
32:31
Speaker 1: would there be any doubt he would at least be
32:33
Speaker 1: in the conversation right now.
32:36
Speaker 9: That you're right, because he'd get so many Plus he's.
32:39
Speaker 1: Playing at eleven o'clock every Saturday. He's not playing at
32:42
Speaker 1: two thirty. He's not playing in prime time. Nobody sees it,
32:46
Speaker 1: and he's at Georgia Tech, so nobody sees it.
32:48
Speaker 9: What he's done. What I have to laugh at gone
32:51
Speaker 9: back in the old days when Oklahoma run the wishbone
32:54
Speaker 9: and everything. You know, those quarterbacks didn't get penalized. You know,
32:56
Speaker 9: Mildred was great. If you watch some of the games,
32:59
Speaker 9: which I every time I get a chance to watch
33:01
Speaker 9: a little of him play because I like his heart.
33:04
Speaker 9: Sometimes he misses open receivers, but he's an option quarterback. First,
33:08
Speaker 9: you got to take that in consideration, the way he
33:11
Speaker 9: doesn't avoid contact, the way he picks up three or
33:14
Speaker 9: four yards. He is what's the guy he left Leonard?
33:17
Speaker 9: He's Leonard plus he's a graduate of Leonard. To me,
33:20
Speaker 9: he's even better. He wins games with his mind. You
33:23
Speaker 9: got to put in his heart. Yeah, that's what I
33:26
Speaker 9: like about him.
33:26
Speaker 1: If you're gonna stop him, you better put a steak
33:28
Speaker 1: in his heart because he's gonna beat you.
33:31
Speaker 2: So this guy's not gonna win the Heisman probably, but
33:33
Speaker 2: no doubt what No, I'm talking about somebody else. Okay,
33:36
Speaker 2: But one of my favorite guys that I've gotten to
33:38
Speaker 2: watch this season is Reuben Baying, the defensive end at Miami.
33:42
Speaker 2: He has had just a really great season. He was
33:45
Speaker 2: great against Notre Dame.
33:46
Speaker 1: He's good.
33:46
Speaker 2: He was really good against Florida.
33:48
Speaker 1: He's good.
33:48
Speaker 2: And on the flip side of that, another guy that
33:51
Speaker 2: has been kind of a flop so far has been
33:53
Speaker 2: DJ Lagway. He was a guy that a lot of
33:55
Speaker 2: people were really high.
33:56
Speaker 1: On, especially how he finished the year out. Yeah you're going, okay, hey,
34:00
Speaker 1: we know why this kid was number one. We see
34:03
Speaker 1: this now, right?
34:04
Speaker 2: Yeah?
34:04
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I don't know if it's a
34:07
Speaker 1: lie because he's getting killed, right, I don't know what
34:09
Speaker 1: his receivers are like because you don't haven't seen him
34:12
Speaker 1: enough because he hadn't hit him. Uh, And I agree
34:15
Speaker 1: with you. I mean he didn't become horrible all of
34:19
Speaker 1: a sudden.
34:19
Speaker 9: Well, Lagway and Norris to me, what the same way.
34:23
Speaker 1: And by the way, Sellers had a really nice game.
34:25
Speaker 1: Then he almost won that game by himself because they
34:28
Speaker 1: he didn't have much hell.
34:29
Speaker 2: He does not have much hell. Look, which is why I.
34:32
Speaker 1: Look like Leonora's sellars this last wee.
34:35
Speaker 2: Well, and I was not high on either Florida or
34:37
Speaker 2: South Carolina going into nor I and I'm like, Okay,
34:40
Speaker 2: yes they have Sellers, Yes they have Harbor, Yes they
34:43
Speaker 2: have Stewart and defensive one. But the lines are gone
34:46
Speaker 2: and you've got three really good all conference players, but
34:49
Speaker 2: there's not a lot around them.
34:51
Speaker 9: You're right, you had to put them. I'm talking about her.
34:54
Speaker 9: You had to put him in top twenty five just
34:55
Speaker 9: because what they accomplished and they had enough parts back
34:59
Speaker 9: and once again and if they were both Heisman Trophy
35:02
Speaker 9: type quarterbacks, you're able to do enough around them because
35:07
Speaker 9: when you've got Shula is your offensive coordinator. Along with
35:11
Speaker 9: Shane Biemer, you should be able to devise plans. But
35:14
Speaker 9: they don't have enough talent, and he's made one. He's
35:17
Speaker 9: made some bad choices, and so suddenly you go from
35:20
Speaker 9: a top twenty team that they're both out of the run.
35:22
Speaker 1: Okay, So I want to talk about a team that
35:24
Speaker 1: you just mentioned that does have talent, and that's the Hurricanes.
35:28
Speaker 1: And I do not trust Mario Crystabal No. I do
35:32
Speaker 1: not trust him. I think with what he has, especially
35:37
Speaker 1: at the live of scrimmage and even skill position. You know,
35:40
Speaker 1: Tony at receiver. Those running backs are I mean, they're
35:43
Speaker 1: really good, really good, and I'm going, man, I think
35:48
Speaker 1: they ought to be beating people.
35:50
Speaker 2: Well, I don't have their schedule in front of me.
35:52
Speaker 2: I do know they play Florida State in a couple
35:54
Speaker 2: of weeks.
35:54
Speaker 1: Get the baby schedule.
35:56
Speaker 2: I know they played Florida State in a couple of weeks.
35:57
Speaker 2: That's a big game. Florida State's had a great on
36:00
Speaker 2: this year too. That's a great story. Norvelle has done
36:03
Speaker 2: a really good job that long.
36:04
Speaker 1: They looked every bit of the party.
36:06
Speaker 2: They look every bit of the part.
36:07
Speaker 1: All right, here we go with Miami, Caleb, that's the
36:12
Speaker 1: next game. So they have an open date this week. Okay,
36:16
Speaker 1: Florida State next week, Okay, Louisville's good.
36:23
Speaker 2: So to your point, I could see them beating Florida State,
36:26
Speaker 2: coming back home and losing to Louisville, who I don't
36:29
Speaker 2: think is a bad team at all.
36:30
Speaker 1: No, I think they're good. But I just don't trust
36:32
Speaker 1: Mario christ Ball.
36:33
Speaker 9: Okay, I don't trust him Chip, but I watched a
36:35
Speaker 9: little bit of the game this week.
36:36
Speaker 13: Me too.
36:37
Speaker 9: He's got so much talent. He does, and I go
36:39
Speaker 9: back to he was he was under Savan, so he
36:43
Speaker 9: does have a little bit of knowledge. And I thought
36:45
Speaker 9: about that Saban doesn't screw up. He don't want to
36:48
Speaker 9: screw up what you have, and so maybe you're a
36:50
Speaker 9: little bit more conservative. And once again is he's shown
36:54
Speaker 9: me that not only can he recruit, but he can
36:57
Speaker 9: recruit at all levels. He's got a nice team. Like
36:59
Speaker 9: you said, defense, they're loaded to get the quarterback, they're loaded,
37:04
Speaker 9: and they're in the ACC.
37:05
Speaker 1: I think that byamy Florida State game, guys is going
37:09
Speaker 1: to look like the nineteen eighties. Yeah, next week, I
37:11
Speaker 1: really do well, there's talent everywhere.
37:14
Speaker 2: Well, and Beck's playing a lot better, and he had
37:16
Speaker 2: a couple of really rough moments in that game they did,
37:18
Speaker 2: but you look at you look at the whole body
37:20
Speaker 2: of work. It was a really good game. A note
37:22
Speaker 2: on Lagway. There was a report out from one of
37:24
Speaker 2: the Florida reporters today that Lagway is in a boot,
37:27
Speaker 2: which is pretty notable.
37:29
Speaker 1: Before the season, right, yeah.
37:31
Speaker 2: And and so you know, ams got to play with
37:34
Speaker 2: Florida and what three weeks Florida's gotta play Texas.
37:37
Speaker 1: I think there's there's cridinals horrible.
37:39
Speaker 2: Florida's off this week, but then they got As at home,
37:42
Speaker 2: and then they come to A and M.
37:44
Speaker 1: No, they've already played LSU, but they have a streak
37:46
Speaker 1: of top like fifteen, not just top twenty five.
37:49
Speaker 2: It's run. They gotta play Georgia. They're playing Florida State and.
37:53
Speaker 1: I think I played a little Sarkesia in the day
37:56
Speaker 1: from him. He even mentioned because they played Florida next, right,
37:59
Speaker 1: he goes, that's schedules.
38:01
Speaker 9: Through a bowing up for Bellyaby.
38:03
Speaker 1: That schedule is horrible.
38:04
Speaker 9: Still as I watch college football, and you guys brought
38:07
Speaker 9: up Beck, which is a good one. A lot of
38:09
Speaker 9: times I'm watching and I go, Okay, I'm criticizing Read
38:12
Speaker 9: and he's a red shirt sophomore. Some of these quarterbacks
38:15
Speaker 9: are twenty five and twenty six. You're right, and I'm
38:17
Speaker 9: thinking Reid's nineteen or twenty now true, and there's a
38:21
Speaker 9: lot of football Beck has seen. He's made a lot
38:24
Speaker 9: of mistakes, but he knows what to do. And that's
38:27
Speaker 9: how college football's changed so much. You just didn't have
38:30
Speaker 9: that experience under center.
38:32
Speaker 2: Well to your point about that, I saw Kentucky made
38:34
Speaker 2: a quarterback change today. They're going with the freshman instead
38:38
Speaker 2: of Calzada.
38:39
Speaker 9: The season's gone, you mus well, And.
38:40
Speaker 2: You know, I heard somebody say one time, like you know,
38:43
Speaker 2: you think about like at a high school ranks right,
38:45
Speaker 2: if you've got a good sophomore that's a little bit
38:47
Speaker 2: of a raw product, but you know he's going to
38:49
Speaker 2: be someone as a junior and senior. Why not roll
38:51
Speaker 2: with the young kid and.
38:52
Speaker 9: Let it rip you got to, And let's be honest,
38:56
Speaker 9: if you're stupents, you're trying to save your job. If
38:59
Speaker 9: you can win a couple of games the freshman and
39:00
Speaker 9: show what you're doing, because he's been in a bad spot.
39:04
Speaker 9: Ever since A and M didn't you brought you brought
39:07
Speaker 9: stoops up.
39:08
Speaker 1: Uh, so not everybody could get that third team to
39:12
Speaker 1: be Kentucky. At what Vanderbilt used to be? Where did
39:17
Speaker 1: Missouri come from? Well he got insight on that Missouri
39:20
Speaker 1: was there.
39:21
Speaker 2: I think Elko is confused about that.
39:22
Speaker 9: To us, Missouri was there a lot. You know, it
39:26
Speaker 9: came out floor it was gonna be Mississippi State and
39:28
Speaker 9: everybody said, but some people did mention. I remember reading
39:32
Speaker 9: whether it was on SEC dot com. Somebody said, you
39:35
Speaker 9: know Missouri because since A and M and M came
39:36
Speaker 9: in together, which does make sense, and let's be honest,
39:39
Speaker 9: this will probably switch after four years. I don't think
39:42
Speaker 9: this is going to be the end all end all.
39:45
Speaker 9: So I didn't. It wasn't shocked when I saw Missouri,
39:48
Speaker 9: but I laughed. The first thing I looked at who
39:51
Speaker 9: has who has Kentucky? And who has Arkansas Alabama? That's
39:55
Speaker 9: what I was looking at. What who whoever plays them?
39:59
Speaker 9: That's an advance because man, when you start looking at
40:01
Speaker 9: this nine game schedule, you gotta do five homes meet
40:05
Speaker 9: or five roads. It's a big Keith got that extra
40:07
Speaker 9: road game. And if you can add in a gimme
40:10
Speaker 9: and I get it. You can change things around. But
40:13
Speaker 9: right now, to me, Mississippi State and Kentucky are not
40:16
Speaker 9: up with the rest of the peach.
40:17
Speaker 1: So Mississippi State gets Olabis Vanderbilt Alabama. Of course, Alabama
40:21
Speaker 1: gets Mississippi State. That long, tough rot, fierce rivalry.
40:25
Speaker 2: Hey, the Alabama has not played a team more in
40:27
Speaker 2: its history of the Mississippi State and it's the closest
40:29
Speaker 2: school to Alabama. Just saying, just saying, okay, all right,
40:35
Speaker 2: I'll them. Well yeah he did. Hey, how about Misissippi
40:39
Speaker 2: State though they're four and oh, let Levy's. Levey's got
40:42
Speaker 2: them four and oh they beat Arizona State. They got
40:45
Speaker 2: a long road ahead to get the six wins. But
40:48
Speaker 2: the fact that they got the four is really impressed.
40:50
Speaker 1: Agree with you. I didn't think they could get time.
40:52
Speaker 2: I didn't think they would either. I thought they go
40:54
Speaker 2: to in tent again.
40:55
Speaker 9: Arizona State coach gave them that dame. You didn't know
40:58
Speaker 9: Arizona State to their credit. Thing from that I give them.
41:01
Speaker 1: By the way, it was a stupid law they host
41:03
Speaker 1: TCU Friday night. Since you've got to turn around after
41:07
Speaker 1: after that robbery game, even though sunny Dyke said it's
41:10
Speaker 1: not a robbery game. Uh, they have to go to
41:13
Speaker 1: Arizona State playing night came out there.
41:15
Speaker 9: That's a tough one.
41:16
Speaker 1: We'll know a little bit about both of those teams too,
41:19
Speaker 1: because I think TCU is pretty good.
41:21
Speaker 2: Hey, I tell you what, though, from a writer's perspective,
41:24
Speaker 2: ain't them Having Missouri on the schedule of a year
41:25
Speaker 2: is pretty great after drink Witz pulled the whole blanket
41:28
Speaker 2: thing last year. Uh, just just just the Shenanigans and
41:33
Speaker 2: drink Wooz loves. I mean, we think Sees and I
41:36
Speaker 2: were one of like the fourteen people that were at
41:38
Speaker 2: his thing at the SEC media days. He's talking about
41:41
Speaker 2: conspiracy theories. I mean, he's a walking quote and yeah,
41:46
Speaker 2: it's a great content.
41:48
Speaker 9: And he's standing there and uh, of course, uh Staples
41:52
Speaker 9: is graduating from Missouri forty forty excuse me, Moury, and
41:56
Speaker 9: he goes, Hey, how comes you'll come to Missouri or whatever?
42:00

Speaker 2: am in the Indianapolis Airport, nobody's going to pay attention exactly.
46:20
Speaker 1: But but hey, so Oregon Penn State, what do you think?
46:26
Speaker 9: Well, you got to stay with Oregon. No, I don't
46:29
Speaker 9: because the home field advantage, that's what I think. And
46:32
Speaker 9: you know, when they go there, that's what I travel
46:35
Speaker 9: their first really big.
46:36
Speaker 1: But it is an eleven am game, say yeah, yeah, Saturday,
46:40
Speaker 1: I do.
46:41
Speaker 9: I do love Landing. He is a good code too.
46:43
Speaker 9: You got people forget they want to they won, you
46:46
Speaker 9: know what I remember.
46:47
Speaker 1: And I'm still vacillating I remember Oregon going to Ohio
46:50
Speaker 1: State either two or three years ago, and you're thinking, oh,
46:54
Speaker 1: this a Pac twelve team at the time. Right, It's
46:57
Speaker 1: like they're playing this mean tough. Yeah, State's always good.
47:02
Speaker 1: They dominated both lines of scrimmage in that game at
47:07
Speaker 1: the Shoe and I went, well, that got my attention.
47:10
Speaker 2: And you talk about Mario, you don't trust Mario christ Bol.
47:13
Speaker 2: I don't know if I trust James Franklin until he
47:15
Speaker 2: wins the big amen. That's a big thing.
47:18
Speaker 9: I've always been a Penn State fan. And there's one
47:21
Speaker 9: of the guys, one of the Penn State grad about
47:23
Speaker 9: my age. He'll he'll always email me, I said, until
47:26
Speaker 9: Franklin does it. He got the job because he had
47:29
Speaker 9: an easy schedule in Vanderbilt, one of those back to
47:32
Speaker 9: back years. I give him credit. He said the right things,
47:34
Speaker 9: he got the Penn State easy schedule. Things fell for
47:38
Speaker 9: him last year. But until he wins. To me, it
47:41
Speaker 9: gets to a championship game, he's not a championship.
47:44
Speaker 1: Talk about about a national championship.
47:46
Speaker 9: National championship game until he gets there. And maybe that's
47:50
Speaker 9: asking too much, but I always when I watch games,
47:52
Speaker 9: I think he always gets ut.
47:53
Speaker 2: Coached yea, and Landing is a good coach the check.
47:57
Speaker 9: Mark, but once again to go in the happy valle a,
48:00
Speaker 9: why out and see if.
48:02
Speaker 1: He can do that? In my mind, they have to
48:05
Speaker 1: be the number one team coming out next week. Yeah,
48:07
Speaker 1: I mean they have to, right yeah, uh uh l
48:11
Speaker 1: s U ole Miss. I think football, right, I think
48:15
Speaker 1: that's just and they these It's not like this is
48:18
Speaker 1: a random game. These teams have a long storied history.
48:22
Speaker 2: There's a reason that ole Miss is gonna be LSU's
48:25
Speaker 2: one of their three annual opponents.
48:27
Speaker 1: Absolutely, they have a long history.
48:30
Speaker 2: They do. And we were talking about this off the
48:32
Speaker 2: air and Cease and I talked about it's in the
48:34
Speaker 2: office today. Kiffin's daughter posts on Instagram today that she's
48:37
Speaker 2: dating Went Weeks, the stud linebacker LSU the Monday of
48:42
Speaker 2: the game. I mean that is just dad awesome encourage that.
48:46
Speaker 1: Yeah.
48:47
Speaker 2: I mean Kiffen made that comment last week that he thinks, uh,
48:51
Speaker 2: the Tulane coach is going to be coaching the SEC
48:53
Speaker 2: next week. I mean, he's so good at planning those
48:56
Speaker 2: little seeds.
48:57
Speaker 1: And it's just in what week, in what era, in
49:01
Speaker 1: what year? Are we not talking Alabama, Georgia as the
49:06
Speaker 1: game of the week.
49:07
Speaker 9: Good point, that's very good point.
49:09
Speaker 8: Hip.
49:09
Speaker 2: This is a big game for Kaitlin de Bor. It's
49:11
Speaker 2: a huge game. It's a huge game.
49:14
Speaker 1: Much bigger for him than for Kirby, without a doubt,
49:16
Speaker 1: Absolutely right. But last year's was classic. Remember Alabama runs
49:21
Speaker 1: out to about a twenty eight to nothing lead or
49:23
Speaker 1: something like that.
49:24
Speaker 2: Well, and I think if you're A and M, you
49:26
Speaker 2: probably want Georgia to win the game to get Alabama
49:29
Speaker 2: to two conference losses, because I find it hard to
49:31
Speaker 2: believe that. Well, I guess Georgia still has to play Texas,
49:35
Speaker 2: and that could that could be a game. But beyond Texas,
49:37
Speaker 2: I don't see Georgia losing another game.
49:39
Speaker 9: Georgia gotta play Georgia Tech conference conference about going to
49:43
Speaker 9: college football playoffs.
49:44
Speaker 2: Well, that's true. But I'm also thinking if you're A
49:46
Speaker 2: and M and you think you've got a shot at
49:48
Speaker 2: making a run to the SEC title game, you probably
49:51
Speaker 2: just want Georgia to win because that that means Alabama's
49:53
Speaker 2: got two losses and Alabama Alabama still got to play
49:57
Speaker 2: some good teams.
49:57
Speaker 9: Well, if it's twenty one, twenty one or twenty eight
49:59
Speaker 9: twenty fourth quarter minutes ago. I want one of the
50:01
Speaker 9: cameramen to go up Goose to book.
50:03
Speaker 2: De Beer's that games in Athens.
50:06
Speaker 1: Right, it is between the hedges.
50:09
Speaker 9: I'm going with Georgia. I mean, you know, it's like
50:10
Speaker 9: home it.
50:13
Speaker 1: So before the season I picked Alabama to play Georgia
50:17
Speaker 1: for the SEC championship game. Now, I wasn't looking too
50:22
Speaker 1: good early on Alabama. I feel like I'm looking a
50:26
Speaker 1: little bit better right now. I like Alabama's offense. I
50:31
Speaker 1: know all about Georgia. I know how tough they are.
50:34
Speaker 1: I get it. And Georgia doesn't lose at home either. No,
50:39
Speaker 1: I don't know how many in a row they've wont
50:41
Speaker 1: at home. It is substantial, okay under Kirby.
50:44
Speaker 9: But I will say Tennessee's hurry up offense had them
50:47
Speaker 9: beat if hypel were have coached the game.
50:50
Speaker 1: Right, Yes, he's hype screwed that whole game up. I
50:54
Speaker 1: don't think Calin de Boor will screw that game up.
50:57
Speaker 1: I love how Simpson is playing at quarterback. I think
51:00
Speaker 1: they have the best quarterback, meaning Alabama. I won't take
51:04
Speaker 1: Alabama in this game on Saturday. I just think they
51:07
Speaker 1: have the best quarterback in that game.
51:09
Speaker 9: You're probably right.
51:10
Speaker 2: Well, you're ahead of me in Prague, so maybe I
51:12
Speaker 2: should listen.
51:14
Speaker 1: There's no way I could be ahead of you.
51:15
Speaker 2: And Prague, I'm like third to last.
51:18
Speaker 9: Okay, so I'm probably four. I haven't looked yet because
51:23
Speaker 9: two graters. I'm already out of it. And uh, well,
51:26
Speaker 9: you know see, in fact, I was going to talk
51:29
Speaker 9: to you about retiring. Gary can't keep doing that.
51:31
Speaker 1: You know, I was going to talk to you. I think, yeah,
51:34
Speaker 1: I think, I think.
51:35
Speaker 15: I know.
51:37
Speaker 1: Well, I've lost the ability. You know, at some point
51:41
Speaker 1: you got to say, man, you're just too old. You
51:43
Speaker 1: can't do this.
51:44
Speaker 2: And you could just go to the dabbo route and keep.
51:47
Speaker 1: Hey, you want to fire me, fire me. I'll just
51:50
Speaker 1: go somewhere else and win.
51:51
Speaker 9: I could go in our nil deal and see if
51:53
Speaker 9: I get another koozie.
51:54
Speaker 1: I'll go to the Observer and I don't even know
51:58
Speaker 1: you can go brend A Banner.
52:01
Speaker 9: They're too big.
52:03
Speaker 1: They are too big for me. Hey.
52:04
Speaker 2: Speaking of Brenham, Chris Guidry made an incredible catch to
52:07
Speaker 2: win the game on Friday night against Colleen. He had
52:10
Speaker 2: three guys on him, he goes up and gets it.
52:12
Speaker 2: They win by two. Big win for the Cubs.
52:14
Speaker 1: George is a three and a half point pick at
52:16
Speaker 1: home on Saturday.
52:17
Speaker 9: That's just the home field.
52:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course it is, that's all. Yeah, so it's
52:21
Speaker 1: it's one of those there. I'm telling you. I I
52:25
Speaker 1: would like I've maybe started at eleven am and yeah,
52:28
Speaker 1: A and m. Auburn's really messing me up in the
52:31
Speaker 1: middle of the after Maybe they'll move the game for me.
52:34
Speaker 9: Maybe the new president would do that.
52:36
Speaker 3: Yeah.
52:36
Speaker 2: The two thirty games are tough for us because it
52:39
Speaker 2: takes up pretty much your whole day and you can't
52:41
Speaker 2: really watch that much football. That's correct, You're right, he can't,
52:44
Speaker 2: which is a little bit of a bummer. The one
52:46
Speaker 2: thing I do like, though, is that you actually get to.
52:48
Speaker 1: Go to watching college football. I take all the games
52:51
Speaker 1: I can see, and I just watch on Sunday because
52:53
Speaker 1: I don't care about the NFL.
52:54
Speaker 2: Hey, I'll take two thirty though, over seven forty five.
52:58
Speaker 2: That was brutal.
53:00
Speaker 9: I actually like to thirty games because you can watch
53:02
Speaker 9: the eleven o'clock game. Were getting ready for the two
53:04
Speaker 9: thirty game?
53:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean half at home and half in the
53:08
Speaker 1: press box. If you're lucky, Yeah, you're lucky. But yeah,
53:11
Speaker 1: this is going to be a weekend. I mean it's
53:13
Speaker 1: it's gonna be where we're gonna know you were talking
53:16
Speaker 1: about it still early and it is. We're going to
53:19
Speaker 1: know a little bit more about some teams this weekend.
53:22
Speaker 1: I think, will we not?
53:24
Speaker 9: And I want to give a plug out including A
53:26
Speaker 9: and M. I was very impressed with Texas Tech.
53:28
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that was so much what I.
53:30
Speaker 1: Haven't taped and I haven't watched it, and everybody said,
53:34
Speaker 1: I read this and and so this is just the
53:37
Speaker 1: era in which, yeah, it has to be true. This
53:39
Speaker 1: is the era in which we live. Is that every
53:42
Speaker 1: time a team like wins the game, with how much
53:45
Speaker 1: are they spending? So you cannot, no, you can't watch
53:49
Speaker 1: Texas Tech without saying, well, they they bought a team.
53:53
Speaker 1: And I'm going I finally heard Joey McGuire last week
53:57
Speaker 1: before they went to Utah and one said, look, I
53:59
Speaker 1: know the expectations, right, I mean he's on a hot seat,
54:04
Speaker 1: right because Cody Campbell sped gold hot see a lot
54:08
Speaker 1: of money five million on the defensive line. They about
54:11
Speaker 1: five linemen and a million apiece and from what I
54:13
Speaker 1: you tell me, I heard their.
54:15
Speaker 9: Defensive line was really good. I was impressed how physical
54:19
Speaker 9: they were.
54:19
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
54:20
Speaker 9: They could throw them and actually Morton didn't throw that well.
54:23
Speaker 1: Now, it was the physicality I love said. I would
54:27
Speaker 1: never think we would get out physically they did.
54:30
Speaker 9: It wasn't even close.
54:31
Speaker 1: Wasn't close.
54:32
Speaker 2: Hey, talking about you talk about how physical college Station
54:35
Speaker 2: High product Arrington Maiden. He put the game on ice
54:38
Speaker 2: late in the game in Memphis win over Arkansas because
54:41
Speaker 2: he muscles through on a third and eight for eleven yards.
54:44
Speaker 2: He gets kind of in a pile two yards down
54:46
Speaker 2: the field, gets the first down. That's a big win
54:49
Speaker 2: for Memphis and Pittman's on the hot seat.
54:53
