  Speaker 1: Bueno, como esta?
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, oh, oh, here's Mike and Bo.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: You guys are the most entertaining sports program in the world.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Drop it, Bo. Drop it, baby.
• 0:14
  Speaker 4: No, no, stop twerking. You and I are a couple eating, like,
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: Lady and the Tramp. You're the lady on the tramp.
• 0:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, come on.
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: Come on, baby. I wish I was Boopy. Boopy McClain, man.
• 0:24
  Speaker 4: That's a great name.
• 0:25
  Speaker 5: All aboard.
• 0:26
  Speaker 6: All aboard.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Good morning, Charlotte. Welcome aboard.
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: It is the Mac and Bone radio show time. We
• 0:47
  Speaker 5: are here on a disastrous Panther Monday. Ain't any other
• 0:51
  Speaker 5: way to put it. We've got something to deal with
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: and something to discuss as we went into Sunday's game
• 0:59
  Speaker 5: feeling so good. And now. We are in shambles, absolute
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: shambles as a fan base. We will discuss it at
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: length here on today's Mac and Bone radio show. We've
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: got NC State fans that we need to hear your
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: reaction to the Dave Dorn firing after a brutal loss
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: to freaking Stanford on Friday night. We got to Gamecocks
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: with a huge win. Over Tennessee this weekend. Don't look down.
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: They got a couple of ranked wins in a row.
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: Shane Beamer and the boys. We've got Clemson and Carolina
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: losing some rough ones. We got to talk about that.
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: And the Hornets, what a weekend. They were booed on Friday,
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: much like the Panthers were yesterday by the home crowd.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: But they responded on Saturday night. We'll talk about it
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: all here today on the Mac and Bone Show.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: We got Finney in the house.
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: Yes, he was in the arena for both games where
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: the home team got booed. I'm not drawing any conclusions.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: Just want to throw that out there. The Bone Man
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: is here as well. He told Tennessee fans last Monday.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: What was going to happen? What's up, Bone? What's going on?
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Good morning to you, Mac. How's everything going over there?
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Everything okay? Everything all right there? It's going good, buddy.
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: You might want to focus on South Carolina winning and
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: Duke winning an exhibition over Kansas.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's good for you right there.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: I'm always focused on those things, but the main focus
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: today is, I believe you put it aptly, the abject
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: disaster that was 1 p.m. yesterday to when did it end?
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: It felt like it never would end, but it went
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: on for a while yesterday. Not just a loss, but
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: a loss that we thought that was in the rearview mirror,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: that type of loss after the first game. It's one
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: thing to lose to a desperate team. We talked about
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: that all last week. But to get bludgeoned by a
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: desperate team, did not see that one coming.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it makes you question so much of what you
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: were believing about this team and Canales and Morgan and
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: this whole build of the Panthers because I was thinking
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: the same thing. Like, you still doing this? And you
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: get run on for 258 yards. So we've played six
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: football games, and in one third of them, you've given
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: up 258 yards or more? When you go back to
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: the Bear game as well, I thought we had moved
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: on defensively. I mean, the way they played defense in
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: the run game against Jameer Gibbs, the way they defended
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: last week in Philly, albeit against a banged-up team, I just,
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I mean, I will tell you this, Bone, we could
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: take these EPA stats I've been reciting and throw them
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: out the window for the defense because that was absolute trash.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: But the thing is, though, everybody was trash, right?
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: There is damn near any employees over there with the
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: Panthers that I can point to and say they did
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: a good job. It was collective trash. The pass protection
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: for Bryce Young, the ball security from Bryce Young. We
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: can also throw away those turnover stats for Bryce Young
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: because that looked like early Bryce Young turning the football over.
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: Now Taylor Moten gets hurt. So you couldn't pass protect
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: with him in there. Not that it was his fault.
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: It was everybody else's. But how are we going to
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: pass protect now? And, oh, by the way, I know
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: every Panther player in the locker room seemed to cling
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: to this like this is great news. Oh, yeah, we
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: just got to move on. We got a game on Thursday.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: They couldn't wait to tell you, Bone. They were already
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: moved on mentally. Well, I'm not sure it's great news
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: we had a game on Thursday night. Oh, by the way,
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: against a Packer team that will be desperate because they're
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: 4-3 after the loss to Detroit and in last place
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: in their division. How did we do against a desperate
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: team yesterday, Bo? Uh, we did not do well from
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: the opening kickoff.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Uh, they, the Buccaneers came out like that game was
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: everything as they should have. The Panthers came out like
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: they were just on a, on a Sunday stroll and
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: it never got any better.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: They got punched in the mouth right away. They never recovered.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: And Mac, I know we're going to do a deeper dive,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: by the way, is that the, uh, what's the home
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: record right now?
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Three, three home games, right? One in three, one in
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: one and two, one in two, because.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: The first game against Chicago yesterday in the lions, uh,
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: So in two of the three home games, it wasn't
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: like you went on the road and got destroyed. You
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: got absolutely ridiculously beaten twice at home. David Tepper, I think,
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: in MAAC has been very reserved is the right word
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: the last couple of years. But if you keep putting
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: up home performances like that. At some point, the TEP's
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: going to stir and say, what's going on here? I'm
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: not saying it's Canales, but someone's head may roll for
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: performances like that, especially twice at home out.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Of three games.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: They're giving up 43 points a game at home this season.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: And that includes the 26-point performance, which we thought all
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: things considered against Detroit with two starting corners out was brutal.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: A vero match to me. When things are going well
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: and to plan, he's fine. Like when things are just
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: going like they thought it would.
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: Our plan's working. He's all right. He's fine.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: When the plan goes awry right away, Chicago, Tampa, and
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: they're smacked in the mouth and that team is dictating
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: to you what they want to do. Tampa goes 11
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: touches to Bucky Irvin, drive one yesterday. I'm not a
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: football Einstein. I'm not a defensive mind. But I'm asking here,
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: if anyone has an answer, where are the adjustments in
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: games like this? The Buccaneers and Bears in both those
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: games did whatever they wanted to do. Yesterday, the Buccaneers
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: had a plan from the first series, and it worked
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: the entire day. We're not going to have Baker throw
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: a lot. We're going to run the football, and we
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: never stopped it at all. They did what they wanted
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: to do the whole game. We never once put up
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: resistance the entire day. When things are not going well
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: is when I worry about Avero because I think some
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: fans are right. Where, where's the, any adjustment at all here?
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: When does, see, when does Averro put in the get
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: off a block and make a tackle play?
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: When does he put that? Like, that's the thing.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: That's the thing is, they've got their ass kicked in
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: the trenches.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: They, like, at some point, Bone, if dudes can move
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: your big guys.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: So I get it. I do wonder. There's blame everywhere.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: I'm just asking a question. Everybody deserves blame, man.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: Listen, the fact that you can now look at it
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: and say they didn't want Baker Mayfield to have to
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: throw the ball at all. Baker Mayfield's got some contraption
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: glove on his hand from the damn baseball team, and
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: they didn't want him.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: To have to throw. They didn't want him to have
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: to throw it downfield.
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: And we just acquiesced and said, hey, we'll make that
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: possible for you. Because even though we know the run
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: is coming– The whole city knew the run was coming.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: We can't stop it and we can't do anything about it.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: And it's just, it's maddening. And to see two games
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: like that bone at home, to your point where you
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: get completely manhandled and punked in the run game. Like
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: I saw Derek Brown get shoved 10 yards downfield at
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: one point. And I actually thought Derek Brown made some
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: plays when I went back and watched it, but you know,
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: we missed Jalen Phillips on the edge. princely pat jones
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: losing contain or when they did contain the edge and
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: make um uh and make the back make bucky cut
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: it inside guys are blocked inside Or Bucky cuts back,
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: and we look like we've never seen a cutback before.
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: We didn't think that was legal. You've got the Caleb
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: Evans problem. They only threw it 11 times, but they
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: threw it enough, Bone, for us to realize we've got
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: to get this dude out of here. And oh, by
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: the way, it doesn't look like he's a willing tackler either,
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: to top it all off.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know what he's willing.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: I mean, the way that dude got stiff-armed and thrown
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: aside like he was a toddler trying to tackle an
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: NFL player on that one long one, that was embarrassing.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: The touchdown in the end zone was just what in
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: the world was that? Touchdown in the end zone where
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: you blitz, you flush him, and oh, I'll just bide
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: my time until 29's guy gets open. How about the
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: third and 10 early in the game? Yeah, I'll just
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: flush out to the right. 29's guy's going to get beat.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: 19 yards. How about another third down where they say,
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: I'll just throw it deep on 29. He'll commit a
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: pass interference. Like, that's the thing is early in the game, bone,
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: we had two third downs could have got off the
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: field and a Caleb Evans.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Like, so.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: You got to do something there. I don't care who
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: you throw out there, Robert Rochelle, Shaw Smith, Wade, Corey Thornton.
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: My God, is that guy buried. I don't know what
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: he did over there, Bone, but he can't start. But, again,
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: in the trenches. It's a simple game, Bone. If you
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: get your ass moved like that in the trenches, you
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: ain't beating a damn soul, man.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: Both sides also because the offensive line was awful also.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: In the passing game, yeah. I mean, pressures on Bryce Gawar.
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: We'll give you the numbers here, but, I mean, it
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: was just– Everything was bad.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Nothing was good.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: It was five sacks. It was 42% pressure, according to PFF.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: Different places have different numbers. And here's the scariest thing
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: about it. First of all, Tampa's defense coming into this
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: game was 24th and 17th. percentage, 31st in pressure rate.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: They weren't getting after the quarterback. And Tampa's M.O. with
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: Todd Bowles is blitz, right?
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: They only blitzed. Sumer Sports said they only blitzed 26%
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: of the time. And, bone, every sack was a four-man rush. Oh.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: They weren't even having to blitz to do that to
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: our offensive line. So then what happens? Seven guys in coverage.
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: They rush four. They get home. And Bryce has no time.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: And Bryce didn't handle it well, don't get me wrong.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: But it was terrible, man.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: It really was.
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: It makes you question all the progress we thought this
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: team was making.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: It was so bad yesterday, Matt.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: We just got a text from the Friday Night Hornets
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: that said, yo, what was that yesterday?
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: Thank God the Hornets played. Maybe the Panthers would do
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: this on Thursday and bounce back. Thank God the Hornets
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: had a game on Saturday. Can you imagine if the
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: Hornets didn't play until the night? They almost blew the
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: lead that night. Bro, yeah, I blinked and they blew
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: a 20-point lead. How do you lose a 20-point lead
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: in five minutes to start the fourth quarter? I don't
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: know how that happened. But I've got to give them credit.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: The resolve they showed, because I thought they were losing.
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: When you blow a 20-point lead and you're playing so
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: good in the third, and then you fall apart that quickly,
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: I think most of us probably thought, oh, crap, we
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: about to blow this game. The way they picked themselves
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: back up and won that game is pretty damn awesome.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: I thought once the Heat tied it, it was over.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: That was one of the quickest 20-point blown leads I've
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: ever seen in my life. I had to rewind it
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: to figure out exactly where the lead went. They showed
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: some resolve. They really did. And that Grayson Allen four-point play, unbelievable, man.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: That dude's a killer, man. That dude is a bucket getter.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: And Brandon Miller went out and got 34, and I
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: don't even give a damn he shot 29 times. I
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: literally thought to myself when the game started, Brandon, shoot
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: 30 times tonight. Lomelo would do that.
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: Lomelo would shoot his way right out of a slump.
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: And even if the percentage isn't good, we need your buckets, dude.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: And he went out and got 34 points. What else
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: do we say? Get to the foul line. 10 of
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: 12 from the foul line. Got to the foul line, too. So, anyway,
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: we'll get into the Hornets. We got enough going on there.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: We got enough going on. I mean, literally, there are topics, Bone,
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: you could do like two hours on. There are about
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: four topics we could do two hours on. And we'll
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: try to get to all of it. But it's hard, Bone,
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: to get to a lot of these other things. When
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: the Panthers lose, they.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Ruin everything for me. I went home.
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: I didn't even want to watch football. They ruin NFL
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: Sundays for me. Now, luckily I got to watch the
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: five car put on a show on that final lap
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: and piss everybody off.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Oh my God.
• 12:38
  Speaker 7: He went below the yellow line.
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: Maybe I don't really care. Um, oh my God, there's a,
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: there was an edict. All the Chevy cars had to
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: help them.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Don't care.
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: What should they do at a drafting track when the
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: Yodas beat their ass all season? Probably try to go
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: help their best driver win a championship. So anyway, but
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: what Kyle Larson did was unbelievable. I'm telling you, it's
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: all-time great stuff. Like I put it up there with
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: the Hail Melon. I put it up there with Earnhardt
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: in the final lap at Talladega going from like 18th
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: to first. He is leading the race, gets shuffled back.
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: It's all in the final lap, by the way. All
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: in the final lap. He's leading the race as they
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: take the white. Shuffled back to 11th, right down the middle. Well,
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: there he goes. We've all seen it at drafting tracks.
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: Gets a push from Ross Chastain. Yeah, Chevy orders.
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: And he and things open up for him, Bone, to
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: the point where he goes from first to 11th to
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: first to win all on the final lap. It was
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: absolutely epic, man. He's got a 73-point lead. It was amazing.
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: It was.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: And there's so much controversy right now, man. So with the.
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: Yellow line and all Chevy, they've given Chevy, Denny Hamlin
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: was so bitter about so much yesterday. Well, I just
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: went with the guy that I knew was going to
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: do his own thing, wasn't going to get team order. Yeah,
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: I'm sure Gibbs never has had team orders ever. I'm
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: sure Toyota's never worked together a drafting track. Seriously, when
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: Denny is crying.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: I'm happy. I'm telling you.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: When Denny's crying because he sees it, another chance at
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: a championship in his aging career going by the damn wayside,
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: and he just wants to whine.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Yes, 73-point lead now for Larson. That's big, man. With
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: a couple races to go. From five points going into
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: the race.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: Out of place in a track type where Larson's not
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: always had the best of walking.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Hasn't won a plate. Hasn't won one. It's walking, it's skill,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: and it's all that. Mac, it's so funny.
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: If you watch the highlights over and over again, the
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: way that the broadcast camera was, it was just on
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: the 47. It was on Stenhouse. Like, oh, it looks
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: like he's going to win the race. And all of
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: a sudden, Larson out of nowhere.
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: I saw it coming the whole way because they did
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: have a full shot. I saw I literally followed his
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: progress the whole way. I'm like, oh, we're going to
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: get these could get a decent finish. Oh, he's cutting
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: it tight up the middle. He could crash here. And
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: of course, I root for Kyle Larson. I don't know
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: if you can tell. But so I thoroughly enjoyed it.
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: But man, it's controversial. It's juicy.
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: But anyway, his reaction afterwards, which will play later, was awesome.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: He was cussing. He was cussing.
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: He's the most mild mannered guy. And he was so
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: fired up. And so, you know, something special happened when
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: I was that was fired up. But anyway, it still doesn't,
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: as great as that was, my number one priority in
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: all of sports is the Carolina Panthers. So on days
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: like today, days like yesterday, other stuff can put a
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: smile on my face, but my mind always goes back
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: to the Carolina Panthers. And then their attitude, we're going
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: to play clips of after the game. I don't know
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: if Dave, like, Dave says he told them, you know,
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: that basically to move on. basically that, you know, you
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: know what I mean? Like it happened. Let's move on.
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: We'll play the clips. But there was an attitude that
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: permeated that locker room of, we got to flush it.
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: We got to just move. We got to play in
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: three days. We got to flush it.
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: Well, Dave said that.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Even from Derek Brown.
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: He said that we had our, we just had our
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: Monday morning meeting.
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: He said we went.
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: He said that.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: No, you don't have your.
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: Monday morning meeting after you get done bitching them out.
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: Like at some point, Dave, I need you when your
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: team is getting its ass kicked. at home, in front
• 16:21
  Speaker 8: of 70,000 fans to show some damn emotion and act
• 16:26
  Speaker 8: like it bothers you.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Even Derrick Brown was like, yeah, we just got to
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: flush it. It wasn't good.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: Isn't Derrick Brown the guy we look to to be like,
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: that was unacceptable. That was absolute garbage. And I'm included.
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: That's a tough one to flush, DB. That toilet's clogged.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: For a while right now.
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: That toilet's clogged. So it's a little frustrating, the tone.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: And I get it, they were playing in three days.
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: But what would their tone have been if they weren't
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: playing in three days? Would it have been different? It
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: just felt like it was, oh, that happened, so be it.
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: You know how much money Panther fans has spent to
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: go to that game? You know how much money Panther
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: fans spent to go to the first game? To watch
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: this defense get punked? And it's like, just to hear
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: them say that. Now, I didn't spend any money, and
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: I went and ate free popcorn. But I'm saying this
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: on behalf of angry Panther fans that did spend money.
• 17:13
  Speaker 7: I walked two miles yesterday to watch that performance.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Finney didn't spend a cent. Finney gave us a
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: charity case yesterday.
• 17:18
  Speaker 7: It was so bad.
• 17:20
  Speaker 8: Patrick, great listener, was at the doghouse up until we
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: went into the stadium, took me.
• 17:25
  Speaker 7: To the game. Poor guy left me at halftime. He
• 17:28
  Speaker 7: was that embarrassed.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: He wasn't alone.
• 17:30
  Speaker 7: By what he was watching.
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: I just.
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: Look, Dave's done a lot for this culture, and he's
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: done a better job than I thought when we hired
• 17:38
  Speaker 8: him back. But this is where I get annoyed with him,
• 17:42
  Speaker 8: is when those type of performances happen, there doesn't seem
• 17:45
  Speaker 8: to be any care factor. Oh, by the way, Dave,
• 17:47
  Speaker 8: it's year three, man. I thought of everything. I thought
• 17:52
  Speaker 8: we were done showing up and playing that bad.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: That's what Bone and I are saying. Did you not?
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: Like, we thought they grew past moments like that. Oh,
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: by the way, to a 1-5 team, Bone. And to
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: make it even worse, the Atlanta Falcons, and I know
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: San Fran was all kind of banged up, Mike Evans,
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: all the receiver, all that, but Atlanta at home beats
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: the undefeated 49ers to pull a half game back.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: Also, the whole world knew you were facing a wounded, desperate...
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: backs against the wall, opponent, a coach's back against the wall.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: We all knew that they were going to come out
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: like this was a playoff game for their own needs.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: You did not match that.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: No.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: One iota the entire game. I'm not even sure what
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: iota means, but I know that sure as hell you
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: didn't match it.
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: And you better go to, on Thursday, Lambeau? You're going
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: to get a team that remembers last year. You're going
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: to get a team that you talk about desperate four
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: and three. And that gauntlet of a division is doomsday.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, they are.
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: So they, you know, you can not, you know, green
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: Bay's going to bring that desperation. I think we'll match
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: it bone because we are a pretty damn good bounce
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: back team.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: But if you don't.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: You cannot, under any circumstances in this matchup either, put
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: a Caleb Evans out there against those wideouts and Jordan Love.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Find somebody else. I don't care if it's Fitty.
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't care if it's Fitty wearing his Panther
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: bikini out there. They will attack Caleb Evans from the get-go.
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: Him and David Moore should be cut. Like they should
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: have been cut last night. David Moore should have been
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: cut during the game. Like he should have been given,
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: was it the Gabe Davis treatment? He retired at halftime
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: vitamin D. Thank you for your services. Exit the field.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: You can't catch a punt. Why is he out? What
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: good are you? First of all, I guess I know why.
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: He's out there because he was inside his own red
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: zone and they wanted the safe punt return guy.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Didn't look too safe to me. Off your chest. Yeah.
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: If he can't, if he can't do the one thing bone,
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: I would think he's on this roster for the most. Well,
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: is to catch a punt.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: What, yeah.
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: What purpose are you serving? And by the way, I
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: was actually excited to see HN return. HN had a
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: great day last week.
• 19:58
  Speaker 7: Same here.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Phenomenal day last week.
• 20:00
  Speaker 7: What was the reason behind that? They want to lose
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: him to injury on, on, on special.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: No, I think it was to say, I think they
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: wanted to make sure the ball was caught. Ironically.
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: Talk about overthinking things. Anyway, Chiefs get rocked last night
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: for their first loss. I kind of felt like this
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: was coming, Bone. I didn't know it was going to
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: be a 17-point game. Harrison Butker can't make kicks. But
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: Kenneth Walker got shot. Out of feeling, Bone. First of all,
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: talk about desperate. It's often a desperate team in the NFL.
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: Seattle at 3-3 was probably feeling desperate, much like the
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: Rams were yesterday when they finally put up a good performance.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: And I had a feeling, too, that defense did not
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: want Kenneth Walker, the one that got away, Bone, to
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: go off on that.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: Lee Sterling told us in his player prop on Friday
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: that Walker under. He's now 3-0 on those player props.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: So good job by Lee Sterling. He's killing those, man.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: When we come back, college football Saturday recap. Huge win
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: for South Carolina. Tough losses for the Heels and Clemson.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: And Dave Doran is gone, is a legend on the way.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: All the bull crap conspiracy theories from the last four years,
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: hopefully we can put that crap to bed now. Because
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: I don't even want to give credence to it and
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: give oxygen to it because.
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: It's so ridiculous.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: But it's disrespectful, all these conspiracy theories about the 2022 game.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: It's disrespectful to our fans that were in this stadium
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: that night. It's disrespectful to our players and coaches that
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: scored 63 points against them that night and held them
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: to 38. So I don't know what conspiracy theories they're
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: going to come up with this year. Maybe it's the
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: lights from the state fair or something affected their ability
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: to play.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: But we won the football game in 2022 because we
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: were the better team. So I hope we can put
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: that crap to bed. And we won the game tonight
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: because we were the better football team. So hopefully that
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: can be our stories. And again, I got a lot
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: of respect for Tennessee. I got a master's degree from Tennessee.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: And I got a lot of great friends in Knoxville,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: a lot of great friends on that staff. But that's embarrassing,
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: all this credence that we're still talking about this stuff
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: four years later so hopefully we're not talking about that
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: anymore after tonight.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: Shane Beamer is good for us radio professionals. That's my coach.
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: I always believed in you, coach. My God, he gives
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: us material. Coach, just focus on what y'all did on
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: the field. It was an amazing comeback. It's an amazing win,
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: a second straight win over a ranked team.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: He wants people to move on, and he's been holding
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: that since 2022.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: I have to be honest with you.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Now, I'm not– I mean, I'm– we're in our world
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: here in Charlotte where– You know, we're focused on our
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: own things and then it kind of trickles down outside
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: of Charlotte.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: I had no idea this was a thing.
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: I don't think most people knew there was a goofy,
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: by the way, really ridiculous, goofy conspiracy about the game
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: where they blew out Tennessee 63 to 38.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Were you like keyed in on this?
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was when it was going on. I didn't
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: realize it was going to come up again in 2026.
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: I knew it was a thing back then that Tennessee
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: fans think South Carolina was cheating and all this stuff,
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: but I didn't realize it was still.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: On the table. Was there more?
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: I thought the conspiracy theory, because I had to look
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: this up. The conspiracy theory I read is that Tennessee fans.
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: thought Connor Stallions was helping South Carolina, um, with spying information,
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: beat Tennessee in order to help Michigan who, oh, by
• 23:53
  Speaker 5: the way, it was the two seed that year, um,
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: help Michigan with seating in the playoff and, and have
• 23:58
  Speaker 5: Tennessee drop out. It is, it's the most absurd theory
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: I've ever heard in my life. Why would you care
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: about that for four minutes? If you're the coach of
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: the Gamecocks, much less four years. Because I guess he.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: What the hell is that?
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: I guess Connor Stallions bought a ticket to Tennessee's game
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: against Kentucky in 2022. So they thought that he was
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: doing the same thing there, I guess.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Oh, dear Lord. Anyway. It's hard to remember, Matt,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: because again, it was four years ago. And who cares?
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I got just whatever. But anyway.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Also, Beamer bringing that up, though, then it takes away.
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: Now we're talking about four years ago.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: And not the current football team. And Beamer, I know
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: that there were times this year when we wanted to
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: talk about other stuff. But now we actually want to
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: talk about your team.
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: I will say this. A lot of people are texting in.
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: We have a texter that says Coach Canales is too passive.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: This texter says Coach Canales can't get mad. We were
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: talking about it earlier. Shane Beamer get mad. That dude
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: has an edge about him. He's got a chip on
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: his shoulder.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: And you know what?
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: Maybe that makes him the perfect coach for South Carolina.
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: Because Gamecock fans have a bit of a chip on
• 24:58
  Speaker 5: their shoulder.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: You know? Yeah.
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: So maybe it does make him the perfect coach, but
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: it was odd to focus on that all.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Over again, Boney. What a win.
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: What a win for the Gamecocks. And it did not
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: look good. Tennessee had the ball up. Of course, the
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: Gamecocks start hot. Of course they did. Up 14-0. And
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: you talk about a lead disappearing quickly.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: And it only starts with the seller's turnover when the
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: unraveling starts with this team.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: It did. It did. But he was more than made
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: up for it. What an absolute beast.
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: Um, but anyway, they are, Tennessee is driving bone and
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: they go for it on fourth and one. And I
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: looked like a busted play. It looked like, like was
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: the McIntyre thing. He was handing it off, but the
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: back didn't think he was going to get it. So
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: they dropped McIntyre for a loss drive down. Great drive.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: And the sellers run. Holy crap. How did he finish
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: that run off for a touchdown? It was the false.
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: Seller's experience, and it finishes with the plays you want
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: him to make. That's what I was asking for earlier
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: this year. Maybe not quite. That's spectacular.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: But where is the guy that we saw against Clemson
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Dragon Ball Carriers, the guy that could not be brought down?
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: Where's the guy on design runs that teams could not tackle? Well,
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: on that play there and in his 95 yards rushing
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: in the game, that was the dude that we all
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: thought we were going to see by this point in
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: his career.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah.
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: That was a I-will-not-be-denied play that I've wanted to see
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: from him a lot the last couple years.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, and that's basically who you've been seeing here lately.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: Yes. There is no doubt about it, Bone. His rush
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: numbers in the last 18 in that game, 14 carries
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: in Florida, Kentucky 17.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: It's happening. It's happening.
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: And his passing has been exponentially better. He has seven
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: touchdowns and that one pick. in the last three games, Bone,
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: and then Dylan Stewart gets involved, and I'm happy for
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: the kid. Has he been a knucklehead? Was he a
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: knucklehead a few weeks back? No doubt about it. Wouldn't
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: listen to the coaches, you know, punching guys on the
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: other team, but it seems like maybe he got the
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: damn message, and he went out there, Bone, with the
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: strip sack on McIntyre, and Orson nails the field goal,
• 27:08
  Speaker 5: and that place goes crazy. That field storm, Boney, had
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: every blade of grass covered by the end of it.
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: What a night for Gamecock fans.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: And, you know, 4-3.
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: Not the best record, but it feels like a great
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: record right now for the Gamecocks based off what we
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: thought after the Kentucky loss at the end, which, by
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: the way, is Kentucky is very, very good, nearly beat them.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: So you start to look at their losses, Mac, collapse
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: against Mississippi State. Bama, no doubt, just a complete, you know,
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: got decimated. Kentucky, overtime blew it at the end. They're
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: very close to only having one loss now that we
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: look at it. With wins over Florida and Tennessee, and
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: they almost beat Kentucky. They almost have three straight ranked wins.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: That Kentucky win was so damn close, man. Now Oklahoma
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: becomes a big game. Can they get to five and three?
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: And then it's A & M and Arkansas after that.
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: If we have figured out the way the SEC works.
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: South Carolina better be very worried. Better be very worried.
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: My dumb ass bone knew I picked South Carolina because
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: I know how the SEC works now, right? Tennessee off
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: a big win. South Carolina win. I picked South Carolina.
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: I saw it coming. I didn't even curse y'all. But
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: I was too dumb to, I ignored it with Texas
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: Ole Miss.
• 28:29
  Speaker 8: Dumb ass.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: I started believing in Ole Miss and the trend would
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: say Texas was going to bounce back. And Ole Miss
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: was going to regress after a big win.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: How did I not see that?
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: It's the coming off a big win or two and
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: then traveling on the road has been the problem.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: That's definitely a problem.
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: But anyway. College football's crazy. BYU losing to Boney, to UCF,
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: and a backup quarterback. And that game was wild.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: Goal line stand by BYU, blocked field goal by BYU,
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: and they then, in regulation, and they still lose it
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: in overtime.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Big 12 fell back to earth a little bit
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: this weekend from all this.
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: Texas Tech got routed by the spite of fighting Satterfields.
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: Satterfields earned himself a spot bone on the NC State
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: hot boards. With that win. But Phillip Rivers appears to
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: be number one bone on all the hot boards. I
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: wanted to bring this up last week. I had noticed
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: that the people in Raleigh, in the media, were really
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: talking a lot last week about, dude, these Phillip Rivers
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: for head coach rumors, like, At first, I thought it
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: was kind of cute. Last week, I was like, these
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: cats are serious in Raleigh about this.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: And I forgot to bring it up. And lo and behold,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Friday happens.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: I mean, the regression of NC State's defense, and it's
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: not just Dave Doran who got fired. DJ LA at
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: their defensive coordinator got fired. The GM, Andy Vaughn, got fired.
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: And Andy Staples, I don't know if he knows something,
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: but seemed to indicate there would be an AD change, too.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: So I wonder how much he knows there.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: Hate to see a guy named Boo be in trouble
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: around Halloween time.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: They can't fire him until after Halloween. It's his day.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: It's not right. It's not right. That's well played, Bone.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: That's well played. But how much has this defense regressed?
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: That used to be the one thing you could count
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: on in Raleigh is when Tony Gibson had that thing running.
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: Year after year, they're going to be ballers on defense.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: And the last three years, Gibson's last year and D.J.
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: Elliott's two years, it's been atrocious. That was embarrassing against Stanford.
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: They made Stanford, Bone, look like Andrew Luck and Harbaugh
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: were back there.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it felt like that loss was the end of
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: the war, and I just didn't know if it would
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: be as immediate as it was there. Mac, you know,
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: Gunnar Rivers is coming in, and that's a big reason
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: why Phillip Rivers is getting tied to the head coaching
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: spot there. Great point by Brian Murphy of WRAL. This
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: will be very interesting how this would play out if
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: it's Rivers, because if it goes well in your NC State,
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: you don't really have to worry, Mac, about... your coach
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: at Phillip Rivers looking elsewhere. He would be here for
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: your program. You wouldn't have to worry about Gunnar Rivers
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: trying to get paid somewhere else. He would be here
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: with his dad. That's if it goes well, but if
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: it doesn't go well, and then you tie yourself into
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: both flip, where was it going to reverse? Then it
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: gets a little bit awkward where we've seen before dad
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: going to replace him.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Nebraska had Scott Frost.
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: In there and it got a little bit awkward of,
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: Oh no, the legend came in and it's not working
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: out right now. So if it goes well, it's fine.
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: But if not, It could get a little awkward. Well,
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: if Gunner, I think, if Gunner is not good, like,
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: dad going to replace him? You know, what's going to
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: happen there? I do think money.
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: Is such a big part obviously in college sports right
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: now and i think they see philip rivers as a
• 32:03
  Speaker 5: path to to getting a lot of money yeah um
• 32:06
  Speaker 5: there was the picture bone that andy albright the big
• 32:08
  Speaker 5: time donor tweeted out now brian murphy who you just
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: referenced also tweeted that he's heard that's an old photo
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: doesn't matter andy albright the big money donor at state
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: tweeted that out saturday night for a reason him and
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: philip rivers on his on his plane he tweeted that
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: out for a reason Right. That's not a coincidence. He
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: tweeted that hours after Dave Dorn was fired. So it
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: sounds like there's some big money people that want the
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: Philly Riv thing back in Raleigh to happen.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: And that goes a long way.
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: Now, the problem is there's some really good candidates out
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: there that have college coaching experience.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: So how do you weigh that? Rivers is a high
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: school coach, never coached.
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: In college, versus the whole money revenue sharing and his
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: son and all that stuff.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Do want to mention Clemson and UNC, Boney. Little old Clemson.
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: Simultaneous, heartbreaking losses. Clemson's defensive front played so good, but
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: my God, that offense is brutal. Tate Reynolds, I do think,
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: is a talent bone.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: But, man. And that offensive line got their ass kicked.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: And then UNC.
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: Has a 10-point lead and blows it and loses to
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: that Syracuse team. And the farce bone of not having
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: a camera in the year of our Lord, shout out
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: Willie P, 2026, you don't have a camera on the
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: goal line that can definitively tell us if he scored
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: a touchdown?
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: It defies explanation, but it is a... The momentum was
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: building for the Heels. It would have been a three-game
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: win streak. And how quickly did it go from, wow,
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: look at the job Belichick is doing, to just a
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: terrible loss to a team that had lost 11 in
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: a row in conference play.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: So it's amazing how quickly.
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: the narratives can turn from, oh, look at Bill, look
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: at the heels, to, oh, my God, how'd they lose
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: that game? It was actually a worse loss than State had,
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: even though they fired their coach, because State was already
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: reeling and losing momentum. The heels were picking up momentum,
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: and it got sucked away so quickly. And you had
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: a shot at game day. Apparently, it must be a
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: bad slate of games next week. I hadn't even looked
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: at it, really. But apparently, they're still playing the ABC
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: 730 game against Miami.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: It's Minnesota-Indiana for game day. Is it?
• 34:24
  Speaker 5: Okay, but you figured the Heels had a legit shot
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: at hosting game day, and they kind of blew that.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Philly, are you more mad at the team?
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: Are you mad at the lack of the ACC's abilities
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: to have cameras on the goal line?
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: What are you mad about?
• 34:38
  Speaker 9: All of it?
• 34:39
  Speaker 7: Don't leave yourself out of the equation, Matt, because this
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: is partly... Your fault.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: Two things.
• 34:44
  Speaker 5: Hey, you couldn't do what South Carolina and Virginia Tech did.
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: You couldn't handle a Mack curse. That's on y'all.
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: Could not. Two things.
• 34:50
  Speaker 8: I'll separate it. One, happy for Fran Brown. He got
• 34:53
  Speaker 8: that win. That's a really good coach. And the pressure
• 34:57
  Speaker 8: was starting to build.
• 34:59
  Speaker 7: On him there.
• 35:00
  Speaker 8: Secondly, look, I can sit here and gripe and complain
• 35:05
  Speaker 8: about there not being a pylon cam in 2026.
• 35:09
  Speaker 7: We should have never been in that situation.
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: Our inability to put games away with an offensive mind
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: like Bobby Petrino is maddening.
• 35:17
  Speaker 7: And I don't know if it's him. I don't know
• 35:19
  Speaker 7: if it's Belichick not letting him be full throttle.
• 35:22
  Speaker 8: I don't know if it's a referendum on what Billy
• 35:24
  Speaker 8: Edwards Jr.
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: Is at quarterback.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: But the game was there to be put away.
• 35:29
  Speaker 7: We could not put the game away.
• 35:31
  Speaker 8: And after Angeli made that throw, Mac, on third down,
• 35:33
  Speaker 8: where we sent the blitz, it was the right call,
• 35:36
  Speaker 8: and he was able to stand in there and make
• 35:37
  Speaker 8: that throw, I knew what the end result was going
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: to be. You knew Syracuse was going to score, and
• 35:41
  Speaker 8: you knew they were going to go for two, and
• 35:43
  Speaker 8: you knew they were going to win.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: But did they? I don't know if he got in.
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: The second I saw it, I thought, is that ball
• 35:51
  Speaker 5: really across the plane?
• 35:53
  Speaker 8: And there's something, there's nothing. Look, I love the ACC
• 35:57
  Speaker 8: officiating transparency.
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: It's great.
• 35:59
  Speaker 8: But having some moderator back in Charlotte tell me through
• 36:06
  Speaker 8: a communication device, my team's going to lose. I'd rather
• 36:09
  Speaker 8: hear it from the stupid ass ref. Like that was
• 36:12
  Speaker 8: the worst way was that I had to hear someone else.
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: Call is confirmed. The game is over.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: We got everybody good. Everybody good. Everybody confirmed. Everybody good.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: Everybody good.
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: I don't think the problem, Fitty, is that. Because it
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: is very good in the SEC. Any minute y'all want
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: to do that.
• 36:25
  Speaker 7: The problem is.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: Here's the problem. They had no camera angles.
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: Nope.
• 36:29
  Speaker 8: And they thought because his foot hit the pylon, that
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: means the ball crossed.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: That doesn't... I don't think they had anything.
• 36:34
  Speaker 8: Foot doesn't equal ball crossed. You can kick the pylon
• 36:37
  Speaker 8: all you want. If the ball doesn't cross the goal line,
• 36:39
  Speaker 8: you didn't freaking score. I just think the problem was
• 36:42
  Speaker 8: that was the call on the field. And when they went.
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: To that shot bone of the replay where they show
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: you all the angles, you could see right there, I
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: ain't got squat. So that's the problem is basically what they–
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: we don't have anything. And I just want to say
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: this right now, and I'll say it four more times
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: today because it should be obvious. How can you not bone,
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: whether it's portable– I don't care if they're portable– How
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: can you not get cameras on the goal lines like that?
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: When a team has the ball, put cameras on the
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: goal line where they're headed to, or just set up
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: four cameras. One is on each side of every goal line.
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: How can we not do that nowadays? There's too much
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: at stake, man.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: The Friday night game at Virginia had cameras on the
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: goal post, for crying out loud. We can't get them
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: right near the, closer to the pylons?
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: Was that a Virginia tape job, or was that an
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: ESPN tape job?
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Who did that? Who taped that camera up there on
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: the goalpost like that? I don't know.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: I read Virginia did that.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: I thought they were saying it was an ESPN thing,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: I guess. Oh, I don't know.
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: Jordan Rodgers said you get a little bit of everything
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: on Friday night, so I'm trying something out.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: They just duct taped that thing up.
• 37:45
  Speaker 9: There, man.
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: Speaking of that, Matt, before we go to break, shout
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: out to Manny Diaz, Duke 5-2 after that win on
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: Friday night.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Duke right now.
• 37:51
  Speaker 7: Duke-y filth.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: Duke right now has a better record after seven games
• 37:55
  Speaker 4: than they had with Benso last year. Think about that
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: for a second. They won the ATC last year. They
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: were 4-3. They're 5-2 this year. That's a damn good
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: football coach that Duke has right there. When we come
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: back on the Mac and Bone radio program, it is
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: Sounds of the Weekend. You're going to hear Willie P.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: Gold call.
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: You're going to hear Robert Hunt on his struggles and
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: Rick Schnall on the long-term vision for the Hornets. Sports Radio,
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: 92.7 WFNZ.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: The five minutes are up. It's on the referee's whistle,
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: but one more corner. It'll be sent in by Ian Smith.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: Smith sends it in, low cross.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: And it's onward, and they score!
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: On the last touch of the match, Cole Bassett wins
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: it for Portland.
• 39:06
  Speaker 5: That is P-Man coming to terms with the fact that
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: there would be no point for a draw in Portland
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: late night. It was about damn near 1230, our time,
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: when that happened. And that Portland literally, on the final
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: kick of the game in stoppage time, would beat us
• 39:25
  Speaker 5: in devastating fashion. That was a damn heartbreaker, man. I
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: got it on the list. I got to tell you,
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: we talk about Matt curses. We talk about the fit
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: daddy being in attendance at the Hornets boo game on
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: Friday night and the Panthers got booed game on Sunday. Um,
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: how about the P man's weekend? In attendance Friday, Hornets
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: lose by 47, get booed. Calling that game, they lose
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: at the damn last second. And then Sunday, in attendance,
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: for the Panthers to get run all over and get
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: booed by their own fans. Holy crap, Pete. Pete needed
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: a drink last night, he said, after that weekend.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: It's a full-fledged Willie curse. Oh, my God.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: By the way, Smoke's already upset that I'm in attendance
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: for the next Panther home game. The one against Denver.
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: People are mad at me for– that's weeks away. Damn it.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: Maybe I can lift up a city for once.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: How about that? How about that? It's so funny.
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: I don't– like the Matt Kirst thing, most of the
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: time I'll laugh it off, but sometimes it'll strike a
• 40:29
  Speaker 5: nerve with me and be like, you really think because
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: I did something they can't stop the run?
• 40:33
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: Blame our big fat dudes who got pushed around by
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: their fat dudes.
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: But I certainly do fear that you and Fitty in
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: attendance does affect sporting events.
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: So I understand how the fans feel. I will say, though,
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: you're right, though. Sometimes it's all right, but sometimes I
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: get to the point where I ask. We don't ever
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: get credit for the wins, though. We only get blamed
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: for the losses.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: That is true.
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: Last week, no one texted in and said, boy, you
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: all picked Philadelphia right on the money. Thank you for
• 41:00
  Speaker 4: picking the team. We believe in you. But when they lose,
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden, we lost the game.
• 41:04
  Speaker 8: This weekend was an all-time low, though. I got to
• 41:07
  Speaker 8: my seat on Friday night after taking the equipment back
• 41:09
  Speaker 8: from pregame.
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: Hornets were down double digits.
• 41:12
  Speaker 8: I got to my seat yesterday because the stadium traffic
• 41:15
  Speaker 8: into the bank was terrible. I got to my seat
• 41:18
  Speaker 8: right as they were scoring a touchdown. Like right as
• 41:21
  Speaker 8: Tampa Bay concluded.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Their first drive. Maybe it is. So Seattle, Seattle.
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: Game last year, you were with me and Bryce knew
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: for 54 yards, Oklahoma, South Carolina game last year.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: You were with me. It's not just bone. Maybe you've
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: got your own carts going on.
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: All right, let's get back to the Panther loss here
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: on Sounds of the Weekend because Robert Hunt had another
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: rough one the other day, depending on which stat service
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: you're looking at. Bone, he either gave up two of
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: the five sacks or one of the five sacks, but
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: he had another rough day. It has been a rough
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: start to the season. for him there is no doubt
• 41:56
  Speaker 5: about it um five pressures pff had him giving up
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: him and rashid walker appeared to have the most brutal
• 42:03
  Speaker 5: times of all the past uh protection struggles and after
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: the game robert hunt was pretty candid and honest when
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: being asked about trying to get back to his previous
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: pre-injury levels of play.
• 42:18
  Speaker 6: Kind of sucked obviously um and then now i'm just
• 42:21
  Speaker 6: trying to get my way back to where i want
• 42:22
  Speaker 6: to be and um I feel like it takes time,
• 42:25
  Speaker 6: but I feel like in some areas I'm improving. I
• 42:27
  Speaker 6: just got to be better in some areas, you know
• 42:29
  Speaker 6: what I mean? Today just wasn't good enough for me,
• 42:30
  Speaker 6: especially on the strip sack. That sucks. I'm going to
• 42:32
  Speaker 6: think about that all night. But, yeah, I think week
• 42:36
  Speaker 6: in week, getting better, just got to improve. You got
• 42:38
  Speaker 6: to keep improving, man.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: That's all it is.
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: It sucks, Bone, because he's such a good dude, man.
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: It's not been his best year by any means so far.
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: Which his bar is high, but he's not at that
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: high level right now consistently.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Not even close to it.
• 42:54
  Speaker 4: He's got moments here and there, but you're not seeing
• 42:56
  Speaker 4: the throwing guys out of the club, Derrick Brown, that
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: we're so used to seeing right now. Not sure what
• 43:01
  Speaker 4: exactly the issue is. Are you talking about Brown or Hunt?
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: I'm talking about, oh, is that not Derrick Brown there?
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: No, that was Hunt.
• 43:07
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: I thought we were playing Derrick. I'm sorry. I thought
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: that was Brown there. My bad. That was Hunt. For
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: some reason, I thought that was Derrick Brown there.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: My bad.
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: But he threw a bone out the glove. Well, still,
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: but Derrick Brown, that's another story there. But yeah, Robert Hunt,
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: I don't know if the injury's taking a toll.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: And a big guy. My bad. I think he's just old.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: The injuries took a toll.
• 43:25
  Speaker 5: Is it a combination of he's aging, he's 30, and
• 43:29
  Speaker 5: then you're trying to come back from an injury?
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: It doesn't take much when you've got a big old
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: body like that for something to go wrong, and all
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: of a sudden you lose any step in this league,
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: and all of a sudden it's a problem.
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he gave up the damn strip sack fumble that
• 43:43
  Speaker 5: led directly to it. That's the thing. The defense bone
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: was far from the only ones giving up points. I mean,
• 43:49
  Speaker 5: David Moore's mistake handed him a short field and seven
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: points right there. They literally scored seven points off the
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: strip sack with their defense and then special teams. You
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: give up two points on an extra point attempt, for
• 44:04
  Speaker 5: God's sakes. So it's the defense was brutal against the run.
• 44:08
  Speaker 5: Baker Mayfield barely had to lift a finger. But, dude,
• 44:11
  Speaker 5: there were people all over the place on all three
• 44:14
  Speaker 5: phases saying, here, take the football.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Take the points. Yeah.
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: All right, let me get to more sounds here. Robert
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: Hunt wasn't wandering around the field this time.
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: The thing with Robert Hunt, Bone, is like, yeah, is
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: it physical?
• 44:25
  Speaker 6: Is it age?
• 44:26
  Speaker 5: Is it coming off the injury? Well, what explains the
• 44:28
  Speaker 5: dumb penalties? You know what I mean? That ain't your body.
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: What's going on there? It's really been rough for him,
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: and he is on the list as a candidate for
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: cuts in the offseason. There is just no doubt about it,
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: if this doesn't improve. All right, let's continue here with
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: some sounds of the weekend. Let's go to the Hornets.
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: Also got booed this weekend, but they did come back
• 44:50
  Speaker 5: after the Friday 47-point loss debacle.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: It's tough to get booed in the home opener in
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: the NBA. Seriously, dude.
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: The place was so alive in the pregame show. And
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: I said, man, no Mellow. This place doesn't care right now.
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: What an atmosphere. And they were getting booed two hours later.
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: It's clearly the Mellow trade anger.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes.
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: Like that's what's being booed in addition to their sorry performance.
• 45:15
  Speaker 5: But this was before the game on the Hornets TV network.
• 45:19
  Speaker 5: where Rick Schnall, one half of Schlotkin, our ownership duo,
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: got Jeff Peterson's back for tough trades. I'm sure LaMelo
• 45:28
  Speaker 5: is the toughest, of course, and the long-term vision.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: Starts at the top with you guys, but of course
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: Jeff Peterson is a huge part of what's going on
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: on the court.
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: You mentioned him. What stands out to you about some
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: of the moves that he's made since he's been in
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: that position?
• 45:43
  Speaker 9: You know, Jeff's been great. Jeff has a long-term vision here,
• 45:48
  Speaker 9: and he is motivated and incented to make the best
• 45:54
  Speaker 9: long-term decisions for the franchise. That was important to us,
• 45:57
  Speaker 9: to hire someone who we knew would be here for
• 46:00
  Speaker 9: a really long time. We made really difficult moves. Obviously,
• 46:05
  Speaker 9: making the trades we made this year at the draft
• 46:08
  Speaker 9: were tough decisions for our organization, but we're making them
• 46:12
  Speaker 9: with a long-term goal in mind, which is to be
• 46:16
  Speaker 9: a team that can win year in, year out. Jeff's
• 46:19
  Speaker 9: built a great organization.
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: It makes sense to me, although.
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: It sucks watching LaMelo get all the praise for all
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: the highlights in Minnesota.
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: Now he's on SportsCenter's Twitter feed every night doing, as
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: Smoke pointed out last night, doing the same stuff he
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: did here that he never got attention for.
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: That big old step back three was a clip they
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: were fawning over and over again.
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: Now I do think, Matt, there's no excuse for the
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: way they got beat on Friday night, but I will
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: say that was a tough... We talked about it on
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: the pregame show, me and Walker on there Friday night.
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: That was a tough matchup without Khan and Kobe White
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: and how good... defensively on the perimeter when you have
• 46:55
  Speaker 4: Dyson Daniels, Jalen Johnson, Alexander Walker, Lou Dort, all focusing
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: on Brandon Miller as the main guy.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: Didn't shoot well. Two of 14 that night.
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: At that point, you just tip your hat and say,
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: that's a hell of a job by the Hawks also
• 47:07
  Speaker 4: that night.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: That was a combination of a lot of things, but
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: I just wanted to say the Hawks' defense was ridiculous too, though.
• 47:12
  Speaker 5: Although there were a few moments where we threw the
• 47:14
  Speaker 5: ball and hit Wiggins right in the numbers.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Or Daniels. Daniels was amazing with seven steals. A few
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: of those was like, oh, you're right. It's a combo.
• 47:22
  Speaker 5: Look what I found. But here's the thing, though. Gas
• 47:24
  Speaker 5: House Earl is going off on the Hornets. He's so
• 47:27
  Speaker 5: angry at the Hornets. They only beat two bottom feeders
• 47:29
  Speaker 5: in the East, and they got blown out. It's like, listen,
• 47:32
  Speaker 5: losing by 47 is unacceptable any time. They're missing two
• 47:36
  Speaker 5: of their three best players. Just wait until we get
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: those guys back. They're missing a key role player in
• 47:41
  Speaker 5: Grant Williams, and they're 2-1 right now.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: With a great chance to be 3-1. What did we expect?
• 47:47
  Speaker 5: I thought 500 without those guys would be great. Just
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: tread water until we get those guys back. Also, oh,
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: by the way, without LaMelo, what was your record prediction, y'all?
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: What was Gas House Earl's record? You expect to be
• 48:01
  Speaker 5: a 60-win team?
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: 22 wins. Remember, he was adamant they're only going to
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: win 22 games. Then why at 2-1... Is it some
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: horrible thing? I don't know, man. This is just inbound.
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: Some fans just want to be angry. That's just it. Well,
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: it's a good day for that. And I'm not saying the.
• 48:18
  Speaker 5: Panthers and the Hornets didn't deserve to be booed, but
• 48:20
  Speaker 5: some fans want to get angry.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: Real quick, let's have a yuck.
• 48:24
  Speaker 5: Let's have a yuck before we get into who are
• 48:26
  Speaker 5: we blaming on the Panthers segment. This is Chase Daniel
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: on SEC Nation on the SEC Network.
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: Making everybody laugh.
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: Tim Tebow, I saw you snicker at this before you
• 48:35
  Speaker 5: pulled yourself together. This is Chase Daniel before the Gamecock
• 48:38
  Speaker 5: game against Tennessee explaining what month it was bone and
• 48:43
  Speaker 5: why it bode well for South Carolina.
• 48:45
  Speaker 10: We're sitting here in the meetings yesterday. We're talking about
• 48:47
  Speaker 10: this game and we're all thinking like, Hey, why in
• 48:50
  Speaker 10: the world does Vegas have South Carolina favorite boys?
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: You know what it is, right?
• 48:54
  Speaker 9: It's Cocktober.
• 48:55
  Speaker 10: It is Cocktober, and they are coming out for it all. Guys,
• 48:59
  Speaker 10: we forget about Sandstorm, the home environment. They whipped Florida,
• 49:03
  Speaker 10: all these things. Lenora Sellers, to me, you look how
• 49:06
  Speaker 10: he played two weeks ago in Cocktober.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: It was good.
• 49:09
  Speaker 10: And this is what they do, man. This is why
• 49:11
  Speaker 10: this game is. I'm looking at you, South Carolina. If
• 49:13
  Speaker 10: you can figure out Xavier Gilliam up front, if you
• 49:16
  Speaker 10: can block him and get rid of the football early enough,
• 49:19
  Speaker 10: you guys are laughing.
• 49:19
  Speaker 7: I don't know why.
• 49:20
  Speaker 10: But you can absolutely continue Cocktober going into next weekend
• 49:25
  Speaker 10: and Halloween.
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: Can you stop saying Cocktober, by the way?
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: What is this?
• 49:32
  Speaker 8: We're good.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: By the way, in all seriousness, Tennessee.
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: Children.
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: All right, that's enough. That's enough.
• 49:41
  Speaker 5: I can relate to that, Bone. I can relate to
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: immaturity on the show. Tim Tebow, we saw you smiling, Timmy.
• 49:45
  Speaker 5: Even Tim Tebow was chuckling a little bit, but that's
• 49:48
  Speaker 5: what they call it in Gamecock Nation, and I'll be damn, Bone,
• 49:51
  Speaker 5: if it hadn't been a happy Cocktober so far.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: Some other nations as well. Ooh, hey now. When we
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: come back, who do we blame for that Panthers' disastrous performance?
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio 92.7.
