Transcript
- 0:01[SPEAKER_00]: Hi, welcome college football fans to the Central Indian Esports Report for this week's College Football Report with Eric and Ryan Robinson.
- 0:11[SPEAKER_00]: Eric and Ryan are here to make picks for our local college football games and the best games around the country.
- 0:18[SPEAKER_00]: I put Eric and Ryan up against the local media and the other Central Indian Esports Report.
- 0:24[SPEAKER_00]: Contributors in making the picks
- 0:27[SPEAKER_00]: And, guys, Eric, it's been a bit of a swoon for you.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's been up and down.
- 0:35[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna partly blame last week on this goring that I'm gonna blame the manager, this commissioner.
- 0:42[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we gotta quit doing one point games, man.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_01]: I got half the game to write and get six points.
- 0:48[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just gonna put a asterisk on my score, but it was awful.
- 0:52[SPEAKER_01]: I think the 100dog won what five or six games.
- 0:55[SPEAKER_00]: The scores were all really bad.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_00]: The scores weren't even.
- 0:59[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I had 50 scores six, and that was the worst, but we had a 14, a couple of 15s of 17.
- 1:06[SPEAKER_00]: Usually one person is under 20.
- 1:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I had 15, and that's my worst performance.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_01]: And this week, I think it got even tougher.
- 1:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, well, there's only one thing left for me to do the rest of the year, and that's really starting.
- 1:21[SPEAKER_01]: picking and rooting for some of these underdogs.
- 1:25[SPEAKER_01]: So you're saying produce going to be to Ohio State.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_01]: And I told us, yeah, I'm going to pick and why pick why not at nine point or one point.
- 1:34[SPEAKER_00]: If it's right, I mean, that's why I do it that way.
- 1:36[SPEAKER_00]: And it has happened in each of our sports where a nine is beating a one.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_00]: When that means guys, we start with the Indiana Hoosiers.
- 1:46[SPEAKER_00]: Nine and a no significant favorites going into Happy Valley.
- 1:51[SPEAKER_00]: in state three and five, which is also stunning.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_00]: IU were three points in state were seven.
- 1:59[SPEAKER_00]: This run, guys, is just incredible.
- 2:02[SPEAKER_00]: One of the best stories in college football history.
- 2:05[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's crazy what he's done.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_01]: And just a little over a year and a half.
- 2:10[SPEAKER_01]: It's great.
- 2:11[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's awesome for IU to have a football team.
- 2:16[SPEAKER_01]: It's always been obviously bathe football.
- 2:18[SPEAKER_01]: But I like this team.
- 2:20[SPEAKER_01]: I'm totally on board.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking IU again this week.
- 2:23[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not taking the underdog in this game.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_01]: Then Diana, easy win.
- 2:30[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, everyone's got to be excited about IU football, even us Notre Dame fans.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_01]: So,
- 2:35[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're totally legit and what he's done in that short of time is something we haven't really seen before in any any type program that fast anyways, but yeah, I think I you go then I looked up some some stats earlier.
- 2:51[SPEAKER_01]: They're they're last 27 games or two and 25 against Penn State.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_01]: But about to be three and 25.
- 2:59[SPEAKER_01]: And I think the spreads like 14 and a half the only thing that does concern me, I think that point spreads a little high being on the road, even though they are the better team, but they're got some injuries to deal with, I drew Evans has already been listed as out and then questionable is
- 3:17[SPEAKER_01]: Elijah Sarat in the eight and fish or the linebackers.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll see what happens with those two players between now and kick off, but that could be an area of concern if they have two of those top players along with the starting guard and Drew Evans.
- 3:36[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if I mentioned that this game is noon on Fox and noon game, it pinstay.
- 3:42[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care what their record is is not easy.
- 3:45[SPEAKER_00]: This is a talented football team with potential all Americans all over the field.
- 3:51[SPEAKER_00]: They're having all kinds of troubles.
- 3:55[SPEAKER_00]: Last week, Ryan asked me if they were going to be over by halftime and I said,
- 4:05[SPEAKER_00]: That might be the case this time, but no, it completely discounted up set here.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_00]: Penn State is, this is, this is their, this is their game.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_00]: This is the one that they're, they want more than any game right now.
- 4:19[SPEAKER_00]: I promise it's going to be a tough game.
- 4:21[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a 10-point game, Indiana pulls away at the end, but it's three points, so I'm taking it.
- 4:29[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think the 14 and a half is a stretch.
- 4:32[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if I would go there, but this is Penn State Super Bowl.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_01]: If you look at it with Michigan State, Nebraska and Rutgers, you know what, what's so many against any of those street teams gonna do to build on for next year.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_01]: So they got all the chips in the middle of the table for this game.
- 4:53[SPEAKER_00]: one o'clock on the big tin network it's the best team in the country eight no Ohio state against the worst team in the big ten two and seven Purdue hasn't one since they beat two horrible teams i have a high-state worse one yeah give me that boiler maker
- 5:16[SPEAKER_01]: I'm having flashbacks to maybe even a more dominant Ohio State team that rolled into the West Wolf he out what year was it Greg when I think it was his name was more ran all over the buck eyes and they pulled off the more it's run down more so I'm having flashbacks of who didn't win that game though yeah they didn't win that game they didn't watch the I watch the flashback on YouTube they beat Ohio State when I was number one
- 5:47[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe they can channel out energy and pull off another huge upset again.
- 5:53[SPEAKER_01]: So highly unlikely I know, but I'm going to take Purdue with the upset.
- 5:59[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I need points too, but I'm not very good at math, but I know one point is better than zero, but it's correct.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm going with Ohio State, and it'll be not very competitive.
- 6:11[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think Purdue will keep a close.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_00]: Give me the one point.
- 6:18[SPEAKER_00]: Pretty odd in BC at 7 and 1 Navy against 6 and 2 Notre Dame.
- 6:23[SPEAKER_00]: The Irish six wins in a row.
- 6:25[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you remember this guys before the season.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_00]: My prediction was Notre Dame would lose the first two game and make the playoffs.
- 6:32[SPEAKER_01]: I think you're going to be absolutely correct with it.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_01]: I like Notre Dame in this game, but I think this could be close as well.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_01]: Navy always plays this really good.
- 6:43[SPEAKER_01]: We put it on in last year.
- 6:45[SPEAKER_01]: I think that was that Yankee Stadium in the, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh uh, uh uh, uh uh, uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
- 7:14[SPEAKER_01]: Um, Navy's got a really good team.
- 7:16[SPEAKER_01]: Um, when they're not playing Notre Dame.
- 7:18[SPEAKER_01]: I actually root for them a lot about every week.
- 7:21[SPEAKER_01]: So we do.
- 7:23[SPEAKER_01]: I think they keep it close.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_01]: Notre Dame just man.
- 7:26[SPEAKER_01]: They just struggle at home and let teams hang around and hang around.
- 7:30[SPEAKER_01]: I think this would be an ugly one.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm still going to take Notre Dame, but watch out for Navy can it be any uglier than Boston college.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_01]: This week in.
- 7:40[SPEAKER_01]: No, that was brutal.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_01]: that was brutal.
- 7:45[SPEAKER_01]: I'm picked a Notre Dame over Navy as well, but there's a couple things Notre Dame's going to have to do.
- 7:49[SPEAKER_01]: They got to keep Horvath under 100 yards rushing first and foremost.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_01]: They got to make him throw the ball.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_01]: He only puts it up 142 yards a game.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_01]: So we got to make him throw.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_01]: rather than use his legs and we need to early dose of love and price to kind of get some scores early and force the passing game on the Navy and the big thing here is third and fourth down.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_01]: Navy goes for it a lot of them for them.
- 8:16[SPEAKER_01]: We got to make third and long situations because they converted a clip of 54% on third and 67% on fourth down.
- 8:26[SPEAKER_01]: So I think if we can get up early,
- 8:30[SPEAKER_01]: in this game and force them to pass, that's gonna create long-down distances and that's gonna be a big advantage for Notre Dame.
- 8:38[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Notre Dame better find a kicker.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_01]: We can't even make an extra point.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_01]: So the kicking game could be huge.
- 8:45[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we can't have a close game because we're toast.
- 8:48[SPEAKER_01]: If it comes down, it's game is not recluse.
- 8:50[SPEAKER_01]: I hope not, you 26 and I have point.
- 8:53[SPEAKER_01]: Aver, we hope it's not closed, but we've seen, we've seen, earlier stuff happen, if it comes down to Fogo at any point in this remaining season, we're in trouble.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_00]: You give me no entertainment of the two free points.
- 9:08[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe might be my favorite college football program, but they're not winning this game.
- 9:12[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 9:22[SPEAKER_00]: tonight on ESPN big game in the American conference six and two to lane eight and one Memphis I have to lane were seven Memphis were three the winner of this game takes the lead in the conference.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's a huge game for Memphis.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_01]: They just are in right now in the college football play off.
- 9:43[SPEAKER_01]: I thought their season was over with when they got beat by South
- 9:50[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, that would you like be that beat on the road they lost at U.A.B.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_01]: I believe, yeah, I thought their season was over, but I think getting into that playoff Tuesday night, this crowd's gonna be crazy home game, give me Memphis, even though they're not the owner dog, I'm gonna take Memphis.
- 10:12[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna have to agree with Eric on this.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna take Memphis.
- 10:16[SPEAKER_01]: the home team, but I'm telling you if you look at this conference, there's some decent football being played in the American conference right now this year.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of unreal.
- 10:28[SPEAKER_01]: You got Navy, you got Memphis, you got Tulane, you got South Florida, all of them with one loss.
- 10:33[SPEAKER_01]: So the next few weeks, this conference is going to separate itself.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_01]: This is a huge opportunity for Memphis to get to five and one in conference.
- 10:43[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm going to go
- 10:47[SPEAKER_00]: It's a sweep, give me a Memphis.
- 10:56[SPEAKER_00]: Two games at noon on Saturday.
- 10:58[SPEAKER_00]: It is unbeaten BYU at 8 and 1 Texas Tech in one heck of a game on ABC to start the day.
- 11:07[SPEAKER_00]: BYU worth six Texas Tech worth four.
- 11:12[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna go on your record.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_01]: I've been giving BYU some love.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_01]: I love.
- 11:16[SPEAKER_01]: this BYU football team.
- 11:18[SPEAKER_01]: I love watching them play.
- 11:19[SPEAKER_01]: That quarterback is so fun to watch.
- 11:22[SPEAKER_01]: Texas Tech gets their starting quarterback back.
- 11:24[SPEAKER_01]: Man, I'm going to stick with BYU.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're that good.
- 11:29[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're they scare me.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_01]: They could beat anyone I think.
- 11:33[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to take BYU on the road.
- 11:35[SPEAKER_01]: Nobody's watched BYU play and they were just watching for the first time.
- 11:39[SPEAKER_01]: The
- 11:45[SPEAKER_01]: and they're strong, but they're not going to win Saturday.
- 11:48[SPEAKER_01]: I got Texas Tech and this one, it's going to be a close game.
- 11:52[SPEAKER_01]: I think BYU's number three in offense, number three in defense.
- 11:55[SPEAKER_01]: But Texas Tech is number one on both of them.
- 11:58[SPEAKER_01]: So I think Texas Tech's going to eliminate bearbockmeyer, you know, make him beat you.
- 12:05[SPEAKER_01]: and try to eliminate LJ Martin out of the backfield of BYU so they got it they can't have both those guys have big games or they could be in trouble.
- 12:15[SPEAKER_01]: So I think they're gonna shut down at least one of those two players for BYU and Texas Tech is really good on defense so I look for them.
- 12:23[SPEAKER_01]: They got the starting quarterback back.
- 12:25[SPEAKER_00]: So I think Texas Tech has this one
- 12:35[SPEAKER_00]: better not let me down, Eric.
- 12:38[SPEAKER_01]: Well, if you pick, uh, follow my late on picks, you're likely in trouble.
- 12:45[SPEAKER_00]: Also, at noon on CBS, it's seven and one Georgia at five and four Mississippi State, the Bulldogs were three, the Bulldogs were seven, Eric or you got man.
- 12:59[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Mr. 50 State has been knocking on the door every week.
- 13:03[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to get one of these wins.
- 13:05[SPEAKER_01]: And I think they get it this weekend.
- 13:08[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to take the bulldogs from Mississippi State over the bulldogs from Georgia.
- 13:17[SPEAKER_01]: Only because they're trying to drift to for walk in stadium.
- 13:22[SPEAKER_01]: Give the Mississippi State.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_01]: And the seven points, Ryan.
- 13:34[SPEAKER_01]: split the points.
- 13:34[SPEAKER_01]: Just take five.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_01]: I'll take five.
- 13:37[SPEAKER_01]: This is going to be a really kind of fun game to watch.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_01]: You miss this Mississippi State has the leading pastor between the two, the leading rusher and the leading receiver between both teams in this matchup.
- 13:48[SPEAKER_01]: But I still don't think that's going to be enough.
- 13:51[SPEAKER_01]: Kirby Smart November.
- 13:52[SPEAKER_01]: He'll be dialed in.
- 13:54[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm going with the bulldogs from Georgia.
- 14:00[SPEAKER_00]: Where have you did not convince me on this one?
- 14:03[SPEAKER_00]: Give me Georgia.
- 14:04[SPEAKER_00]: I agree.
- 14:05[SPEAKER_00]: This is not an easy test on the road, but I'm taking Georgia.
- 14:09[SPEAKER_01]: Why would Mississippi State schedule that for now?
- 14:13[SPEAKER_01]: Why would be why you schedule a new game when it's going to be 10 o'clock in the morning?
- 14:18[SPEAKER_01]: I can't believe they would ever agree to that at Texas Tech.
- 14:26[SPEAKER_00]: A couple of games at 330 on Fox in the Big 10, 7-1 Oregon at 6-2 Iowa in the Big 10 game of the week.
- 14:35[SPEAKER_00]: I said, of Oregon were 3 Iowa were 7 at home, Eric, is that tempting to you?
- 14:40[SPEAKER_01]: It is very tempting and the spread on this is only 5-5, I'm going to take Iowa home.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not, I'm not told on Oregon, it took me a long time last year to finally get on board.
- 14:50[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what it is about them.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_01]: And they they're so up and down and consistent I guess is what is what why I can't but go all in with Oregon I was tough to win At their place they went ugly.
- 15:05[SPEAKER_01]: There's gonna be an ugly game.
- 15:07[SPEAKER_01]: I did I just I like I was I'm going with the Hawkeyes as well.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_01]: Whoa, they have quietly if they can win this game.
- 15:18[SPEAKER_01]: They're gonna be five and one in the big ten
- 15:20[SPEAKER_01]: That's what they do.
- 15:21[SPEAKER_01]: They're so ugly and quiet.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_01]: You don't pay attention to them.
- 15:24[SPEAKER_01]: And they're out.
- 15:24[SPEAKER_01]: And here they are.
- 15:25[SPEAKER_01]: They're just sneaky.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 15:27[SPEAKER_01]: They're just sneaky enough to wear your like holy cow.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_01]: Iowa has a chance to win the big tin.
- 15:33[SPEAKER_01]: And their only loss was the Indiana.
- 15:35[SPEAKER_01]: So I think Iowa pulls this one out.
- 15:38[SPEAKER_01]: It just, just for the reason Eric mentioned, I'm just not sold on Oregon.
- 15:44[SPEAKER_00]: I am Oregon.
- 15:45[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to win this game.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_00]: ABC at three thirty it's unbeaten Texas A&M at six and two Missouri really good Missouri team Texas A&M I have worth four Missouri worth six.
- 16:01[SPEAKER_01]: I really want to take my very in this but losing their quarterback for the year is going to make me go the other way
- 16:10[SPEAKER_01]: That game, Texas day now, played at LSU was incredible.
- 16:14[SPEAKER_01]: That quarterback is unreal.
- 16:16[SPEAKER_01]: He's my husband favorite right now.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_01]: I like A&M, even on the road.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_01]: I've been picking Missouri a lot.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: I like their team, but their quarterback's out.
- 16:25[SPEAKER_01]: I got to take Texas day and end.
- 16:28[SPEAKER_01]: If I had to pick the top three people that are going to be in New York for the highs with more still Ree would be one of them.
- 16:35[SPEAKER_01]: So I think Texas A&M is just
- 16:38[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, too much offensive firepower and Missouri playing without this starting quarterback.
- 16:43[SPEAKER_01]: It's, man, this would have been a heck of a game and I would have loved to pick Missouri, but I'm going to have to go with, uh, A&M and this one.
- 16:52[SPEAKER_01]: I still said and I, and I still think that I don't think A&M's good enough to run the table.
- 16:58[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought this might be a game they could slip up on, but I think it'll be in the next next couple weeks from the SEC title game where they, they're going to get their first loss.
- 17:07[SPEAKER_01]: So let's go Texas A&M this weekend, it losses coming in Texas, but not this week, A&M.
- 17:21[SPEAKER_00]: Seven o'clock on ESPN.
- 17:24[SPEAKER_00]: It is four and four Florida State.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_00]: It's three and five glimpses and I have both teams worth five points in.
- 17:31[SPEAKER_00]: Man, it's been a disappointing season for Florida State.
- 17:34[SPEAKER_00]: It's been a hugely disappointing season for glimpses.
- 17:38[SPEAKER_01]: If we go back, maybe 10 weeks ago, add Climpskin and the win in the whole thing.
- 17:43[SPEAKER_01]: Ryan had Florida State as one of his playoff teams.
- 17:47[SPEAKER_01]: Why you got to throw me in on your terrible prediction.
- 17:52[SPEAKER_01]: You can you can take some of this with me.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_01]: And again, that looked huge a couple of months ago now is irrelevant.
- 18:02[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even know who to pick in this guy.
- 18:04[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even think of matters.
- 18:05[SPEAKER_01]: I probably want to pay attention to it.
- 18:07[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to go with my gut and say that the Florida state.
- 18:12[SPEAKER_01]: Team is probably more prepared and still.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_01]: And think with their head coach, more than Clemson is with Davo.
- 18:21[SPEAKER_01]: I think Davo is lofted there at Clemson.
- 18:26[SPEAKER_01]: I think I'm gonna take Florida state.
- 18:32[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna take Clemson in this just because I flipped the coin and it was tails.
- 18:36[SPEAKER_01]: I probably won't watch a single play from this, but Davos Winnie,
- 18:44[SPEAKER_01]: When you listen to his press conferences and interviews and stuff, he's really not going down in style.
- 18:52[SPEAKER_01]: He's kind of grasping that straws, you know?
- 18:54[SPEAKER_01]: It seems like desperation where he's trying to gain support when supports like wailing big time around him.
- 19:04[SPEAKER_01]: He sounds like a guy, he sounds like a guy that knows he's done.
- 19:14[SPEAKER_00]: Me too.
- 19:16[SPEAKER_00]: Another reason guys won't be paying attention to the Climbs and Florida state games at the same time on ABC.
- 19:21[SPEAKER_00]: It's five and three LSU at seven and one Alabama and one of the most relevant rivalries in the country over the last decade or so.
- 19:29[SPEAKER_00]: This year LSU has struggled quite a bit.
- 19:32[SPEAKER_00]: Alabama is clearly in the national championship picture LSU
- 19:41[SPEAKER_00]: Bingo Tigers worth eight points.
- 19:43[SPEAKER_00]: The crimson tide worth two.
- 19:45[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm going to take Alabama because I'm secretly becoming an Alabama fan.
- 19:51[SPEAKER_01]: I hate to admit it.
- 19:52[SPEAKER_01]: I hate it too.
- 19:53[SPEAKER_01]: I know I just hate it.
- 19:54[SPEAKER_01]: Fair fun.
- 19:55[SPEAKER_01]: I love that.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_01]: I love that head coach.
- 19:57[SPEAKER_01]: I'm rooting for him.
- 19:59[SPEAKER_00]: Love that quarterback.
- 20:01[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm not going to be surprised if you see LSU come out
- 20:06[SPEAKER_01]: I think Bryan Kelly departure has just like let the freak and air out of the room and that program, you may see a kind of like a UCLA thing happened there though as she was well.
- 20:20[SPEAKER_01]: I think Bryan Kelly was a can for in that locker room.
- 20:23[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think those players like him.
- 20:25[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think his coaches liked coaching for him.
- 20:29[SPEAKER_01]: They're coming off the by, they've had two weeks to regroup and settle in.
- 20:36[SPEAKER_01]: This to be a good game, but I'm going to take Alabama, this game is going to be so close.
- 20:43[SPEAKER_01]: And it's I think LSU is going to come out so inspired.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_01]: And I think they might not Alabama down a couple times early in this game, but I still think Tyson Simpson and Alabama's got so much talent.
- 20:58[SPEAKER_01]: If I pick another guy going to New York for the Heisman in the top three, Tyson Simpson's
- 21:05[SPEAKER_01]: I think he's at 20 touchdowns, one interception for the year, and he's just getting better a week by week.
- 21:11[SPEAKER_01]: So I think I think Alabama might get down early, but I think they find a way to win it.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's a sweet.
- 21:19[SPEAKER_00]: This isn't going to be close.
- 21:20[SPEAKER_00]: I really like this Alabama team.
- 21:22[SPEAKER_00]: Let me say that again.
- 21:23[SPEAKER_00]: I hate Alabama.
- 21:25[SPEAKER_00]: But this Alabama team is fun to watch and they're very good and clearly going to be one of the teams when there's eight teams left.
- 21:33[SPEAKER_00]: I believe that's still
- 21:37[SPEAKER_00]: All right, Sad news in the world of the FCS, Winkers Wright separated his shoulder last week and a win over South Dakota, the Illinois State Red Birds or 63, and he is out this week at Indiana State, which, by the way, is coming off a huge upset win over South Dakota State.
- 21:57[SPEAKER_00]: I will not be going to that game this weekend, I will, however, be going to the season finale, senior day to watch him, whether he plays or not, but he believes that he will be back for senior day and the playoffs, so hopefully winkers will win.
- 22:13[SPEAKER_00]: Illinois State meets the win to stay on the playoff picture.
- 22:16[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe Illinois State will pull a Notre Dame trick out their hat and win one for the
- 22:26[SPEAKER_00]: I have Illinois State worth 3 Indiana State worth 7 at home, can the sick of Moore's do it again?
- 22:33[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think so.
- 22:34[SPEAKER_01]: I want to take Illinois State, although I did not know I wasn't aware Indiana State won last week, but that's huge.
- 22:41[SPEAKER_01]: I work with a lady who's found as a sophomore, defensive lineman for Indiana State from Anderson High School.
- 22:49[SPEAKER_01]: So I kind of pay attention to what's going on there.
- 22:52[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't realize they got a big win, but I'm going to take it when it's tight.
- 22:57[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going with the red burst too, because you just, you know, go against family Greg.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_01]: That's right, you never go against the family.
- 23:46[SPEAKER_00]: The Central Indiana Sports Report is a product of ITG media, and I love Susan.
