• 0:04
  Speaker 1: of week. You download the crazy sheets, you get ready
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: to talk about some college football. We got three games left.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Couldn't be more excited. Y'all probably thought we had deserted you,
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: but no, man, we just had to have a little
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: family time around the holiday. And Scoutty, how the are you? Brother?
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: I'm good, excited, ready to get a little snowmageddon here
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: in Dallas. Pray for us. We're we may not be
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: alive on Friday. You get there.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: They're talking about they have no idea how much snow
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: we're gonna get. They're talking about a little coating of ice,
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: and it is anywhere from three inches of snow to
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: eleven inches of snow. I'm like, that's pretty wide range
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: right there. So I'm expecting four or five inches of snow.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: And if you have never been to Dallas and or
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: in Texas, but mainly Dallas, because everybody else will stay
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: home if there is snow and ice in Dallas. There's
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: no place you could be more dangerous to. You could
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: be in the in Guy the Strip, and it wouldn't
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: be as dangerous as being in Dallas.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Because all those over all, those overpasses, ice over.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: It's just it's a total disaster.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: So, like I said, nobody, I'm gonna wait and see
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: if the tickets bottom out.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: And they are already bottoming out, I.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Saw that if they do, if they bottom out, bottom out,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I may make my way up there on Friday. I
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: haven't decided yet. Yeah, I've got Dragon Ball another game.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: She's gonna go crazy.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: I've got I've got a buddy who's wanting to go
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Friday night. But like you said, if the tickets get cheap,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: you know it'll be it'll be interesting. I'm I'm shocked
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: that Texas fans aren't going more en mass you know,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: well so, so it's pretty interesting. But you Ohio State
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: fans are gonna have a hard time getting here. If
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: they're not here, they're probably not getting here because tomorrow
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: is gonna be a hot mess, and and you know,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: I think Friday morning is gonna be a hot mess
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: a little about noon.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: So it should be interesting.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: If Ohio State fans knew the quality of George that
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: they could purchase in the Greater Arlington area, they would
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: figure out how to get down here for sure for the.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Game, though they might. Can you imagine how many george
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: are running around when they play Florida?
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: It is they bring it to a whole new level.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: It's funny.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: Having been up in that part of the country, it's
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: amazing how many people in Ohio hate Howio State and
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: really hate their fans.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's hilarious.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not well liked. It's a different breed that
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: they got there. So but here we are, man four
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: teams left, Penn State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Texas. We
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: are guaranteed to get a black coach in the National
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: championship Game, which I think that's pretty cool. If I'm
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: talking just of what we've seen so far, I've enjoyed.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: The product on the field hasn't been great. I mean
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the Arizona State Texas game was incredible. Everybody in the
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: country got to blind out who Cam's kataboo was if
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: they didn't know before what a great game he had.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Guy made a lot of money that day. Good for him.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: But I've enjoyed this and it's like, hey, it's year one.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: We're gonna learn from it. It's gonna make it better.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: We're gonna get there. But we get to the final
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: four in these two games that we got. I'm excited
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: to see him and frankly, I think these are the
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: best four teams that have been playing over the last
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: What are your thoughts? Oh, I agree, you know.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I want to say, first, I thought Ashton Genti proved
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: why should have won the Heisman.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: He broke twenty two tackles.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: And gained of his one hundred yards I believe it
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: was eighty one of those were after contact. That's impressive.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, that is impressive. And I thought Penn State
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: did a great job stuffing them. They were Penn State
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: was clearly the more talented team. But I thought boys
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: played really well, made themselves proud, minus just a couple
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: of couple of big mistakes. I mean, the hands to
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: the face was such a gigantic call because that cuts
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: it to three on that touchdown.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: But I don't Boise showed they deserve to be there.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: I thought Arizona State played really, really well, probably should
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: have won that ball game. Don't know how the hell
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: that wasn't targeting. That's been targeting all year, but it's
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: pretty clear the officials didn't want to decide the game.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: But I don't understand that, because when you don't call
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: something that's clearly happening, you are deciding the game. You're
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: doing exactly what you're trying to not do. Oh, we
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: don't want to call to decide the game. Well it
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: call didn't decide the game. A game you didn't a
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: call you didn't make, you know. So, I mean I
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: thought that was I thought that was pretty interesting because
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: you can't tell me that wasn't targeting. I mean, hell,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: it's that is clearly targeted. If that's the middle of September,
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: that kid's gone, you know, zeroed out. But because there's
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: a minute left in a playoff game, they swallowed the whistle.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: So I thought that was I thought that was interesting.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I will tell you I think obviously eleven for Penn
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: state's a great player. Hope he can play this weekend.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Hope he's healthy. Fifteen's every bit is good too.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: You talk about making plays. That guy is all over
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: the field.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: I mean it was.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: I just really was impressed with the with the with
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: the lower level guys.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: I thought they held their own I really did.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, I thought they showed they belonged more than
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: the Tennessee's and the Indianas and guys like that.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: I do think it's fascinating.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: None of the bye teams one which, make no mistake,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Georgia wins that football game, hit their quarterbacks healthy at
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: minus a couple of huge plays. Notre Dame pretty much
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: didn't do anything. Uh, and then Ohio State just full
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: gas can again. They are playing exactly like the team
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: they've been on paper all year.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: This is the first two.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Times they've shown up and played like the team they're
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: capable of playing. In candidly that Chip Kelly's coached like
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: he's capable of coaching, instead of going conservative and playing
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: not to lose like he did against Michigan like he
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: almost did against Nebraska. I mean, go, you've got players, man,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: give them the ball, and he's done it the last
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: two weeks and nobody can stay on the field with them.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: And I'll think that changes in Arlington on Friday night.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: We'll see they're not in Arlington. Oh yeah, they are.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Excuse me, we'll see. I'm interested. If the Lions have
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: been wacky, man, it's uh. You've seen the Penn State
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Unit Dame line move around a lot, and now I've
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: settled down to Penn state plus one over unders at
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: forty five, Ohio State lines all the way up to
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: five and a half over unders at fifty three. And
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: so you've got a lot of opinions on this spot.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: And so I I'm excited. I'm fascinated. I've loved everything
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: about the tournament, even the people bitching about how we
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: need to change it. I love that. It's like we've
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: done this one time and people are complaining we should
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: be reseeding the why should they get bys this, that
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: and the other, and uh it's and then I love
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: I love the uh the SEC hate uh. But yet
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: it's like they forgot Texas is still in the tournament.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: It's like, oh, yeah, they are part of this. And
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I started laughing. I said, well, you know why that
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: is right, I said, I said, there's only four teams
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: in the SEC that have won the national championship over
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: the last twenty years. And I said, and they were
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: smart enough as a conference to get all the shitty
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: schools to just chant SEC all the time and tell
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: them it means most even.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Though they're an don't forget Auburn with CAMBA.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not Auburn, Florida, LSU and Bama that's it. Those
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: are the only four teams the SEC. Oh Georgia, Georgia, Oh, Georgia,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: excuse me. Five. Yeah, I went all the way back
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: to Florida, so five, but I just was laughing. But anyway,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I yeah, I'm interested. And in the transfer portal, we'll
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: get into that next week. Maybe smart. But you've got
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: guys that have been I mean, there's guys on these
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: rosters that have played that have gone in.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: You've heard rumors that other players are coming in out
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: of the portal, and so that thing's fascinating to you.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I did a full deep dive on how the portal works.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: It's completely different. The portal of two twenty five is
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: completely different than the portal of twenty twenty four. Uh.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: And it's and and we'll go into that later because
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: it is it's an economic decision at this point. I mean,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: so I I I think the the U n C
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: GM role and everything that we've talked about a couple
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: of times that is full on gonna be one of
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: the most important positions on a football team going forward.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Because with all these salary caps, how the NIL is working,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: what it's not doing. Uh, we've still got more lawsuits
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: to come, I firmly believe. But it's it's it's definitely
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: changed college football. And I think if you like parody,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I think if you like getting, you know you're there's
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: not gonna be as big of a gap that there
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: used to be.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Then I think the direction of the game's going is
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: gonna be maybe a more interesting product on the field.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know what your thoughts are on it, but
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I just don't think these teams are going to have
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: the depth but not to practice as much in it.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: It's crazy.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I totally agree with you on that.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: I look, I think the quality of play is definitely
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: going to deteriorate. I think you're going to look up
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: and some of those BAMA teams would beat some of
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: these national title teams by six seven touchdowns because at
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: the end of the day, most of these most of
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: these kids are not going to sit on the bench
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: and develop.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: And how do you discipline the kid. You discipline a.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Kid by putting him on that he can't now and
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: and and you can't put a kid on the bench
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: and expect him to learn anything. He's gone, he hits
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: the portal, he's it's malcontent city. So I you know,
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: and I think, but I also I look at Notre
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Dame and yes, they've obviously got Riley Leonard and a
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: couple of other guys that are big that they've gotten
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: out of the portal, but as a whole, the bulk
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: of that football tea team, as guys they've developed, and
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: they're four and five years into that program. And Mark
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Freeman talked about that, and I think you're seeing that
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: the teams that can do that are gonna make They're
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: gonna make a run.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Uh look at the teams we have left. You have
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Quinn Viewers who transferred from Ohio State. He ran two
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: plays at Ohio State. Okay, he's there. That defense is there.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, you've got guys that could have gone pro,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: they could have transferred. Arch Manning's the backup. Okay, Stark
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: has done a good job recruiting a roster keeping it
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: in tag Ohio State. There's so many juniors and seniors
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: on that team, that roster, but the whole defensive line
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: is gonna go pro. And even Penn State Drew Baylers
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: was You've been hearing aboutim for years, but we're finally
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: getting to see him come in. So I think personally
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: and when we'll talk more about this next week or
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: after the championship, but I really do think that the
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: coaches that can still build a high school recruiting craft
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: and a culture within what they want to do are
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: going to win it. And I think sustain I do
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: think you can cherry pick the portal and do a
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: good thing. But it's it's not gonna because anymore. It's
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: gonna be like, here's your number, here's what it is,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: and you know, throwing crazy numbers at these kids. This
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: isn't gonna work because you're gonna fuck up your locker room.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can't go I mean, what's the kids
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: and that Jeremi Smith, that or Smith that know at
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Ohio State, if he gets one point five million next year,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: nobody's gonna go like, fuck, man, what's going on? But
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: you give some left tackle that made four hundred grandest
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: freshman year and play forty snaps and he wants eight
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: hundred grand to stay. You start doing that, you're gonna
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: screw the locker room up. And so we can talk
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: about this for hours, but it's funny to me that
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the four the teams that are here have done a
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: really good job building programs, building rosters, and I honestly
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: think that's why they were able to sustain a new
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: format of college football. Take the bad, you know, take
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: the losses to Michigan, from Ohio State, Penn State, you
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: don't not being able to win the big games like
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: they have been times. But I think that's why these
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: four teams are here, and I think Georgia would be
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: here at their quarterback not gotten hurt.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: SEC has been terrible, even games they should have easily won,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: like guess like k Texas A and them that physically
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: significantly better with the bed lost that game. Alabama don't
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: know how the hell they lost that game other than
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: they couldn't. They gave up what four scores before they
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: ever decided to get a first down and like actually
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: take a snap U Yard. I mean it, that was
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: a joke. I don't know that there's ever been a
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: really talented quarterback that almost won the Natty that his
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: head coach left and they hire a coach that is
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: a worse fit for that quarterback than Jalen Milroe and
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Klen de Bower together. I think both of them are
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: glad the other one's gone, not gonna be dealing with
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: them anymore. Jalen Milrow needs to get ready to play
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: running back or wide receiver because he ain't a quarterback.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Other than that, that's my breakdown from the from the
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: from the from the New Year's Day weekend. Lane Kiffin
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: still bitching and moaning about not making the playoffs. I'm
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: sorry you were the only decent SEC team that didn't
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: get their ass kicked. How do you think you deserve
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: to be there? It is pretty clear that the SEC
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: was mad that what they had was a lot of
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: teams that were good but not great. And I don't
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: think there's any doubt that the Big Ten was the
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: better league this year, especially at the top.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: I don't think.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, you got USC has now beaten l
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: s U and the thanks of saying m and.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Two different quarterbacks, by the way.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: That's exactly right.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: So I don't think there's any doubt that we that
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: that we've identified who the best team, but what the
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: best league in the country was this year? Hi bout
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Bert Belima, my man Bert tying up? He and I mean, look,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I thought I thought Beemer. I think that was kind
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: of chickenye, I know, the rules that did kind of
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: throw them off.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Come on, Bert, you don't.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: You don't stand on some on the field and stare
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: at the sideline and look. I think he was honestly
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: doing it to get his team fired up. I think
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: he thought they were in trouble and he did it
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: to get the get the passion stirred up, get a
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: little bit of get their juices flowing. I ain't that's
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: really why I did it. I don't think he really
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: gave a rip of it. I mean, they only gave
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: up a twenty five yard return. It's not like it's
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: not like any It wasn't like they ran it back
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: seventy five yards and put themselves up for the game
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: winning score. I mean they defended it pretty well, held
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: their guys jogging to the sideline or the reason that
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: didn't work?
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: So, I you know, I thought that was pretty bush
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: league of both of them. He has softened on his position.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I think, basically saying probably shouldn't have done that hurt
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: him on a on a on a radio interview. Based
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: saying probably shouldn't have done that on the field. I
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: am fairly confident he got reprimanded. But I say all
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: that to say, watch out for the fight and a
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: line nine. Next year, they got a lot of people back,
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: and that's a pretty good football team. That's a pretty
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: good and they got Altimayer coming back. They got all
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: those defensive guys that were that had a chance to
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: come back or coming back. Bert's setting himself up. And look,
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: he's been working Twitter, and I don't blame him if
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: that team isn't a top fifteen team entering the season
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: next year Newhile the hell are we even having pre
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: season polls?
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: They should be good. I've looked at a couple of
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: rosters already. I'm kind of like, you're gonna be pretty
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: good next year.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: And so, like I said, I'm fascinated. I haven't been
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: this eager about seeing next year this early, usually at
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: the end of this year, like I'm fatigued with it.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: But now I'm kind of as the game is evolving,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: I am enjoying how these coaches are evolving and the
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: coaches that can adapt. And so that's why I said,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I'm and everybody's doing it differently, and so I'm interested,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: you know, And I think there's gonna be better teams
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: than the SEC next year. I think there's to me
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: it could be a coin flip on who's gonna win there,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: because Auburn finally got a quarterback, but can they do
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: anything with them? You know, How's Georgia gonna come back
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: around from this? Is Bama gonna rise back from the ashes?
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Or is it the guy that followed the guy can't
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: get it done? I mean there's a there's a lot
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: of story. Is Florida turned the corner with sun Belt
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Billy and DJ Langways. I mean, there's a there's a
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: lot of fascinating stuff ahead of us for next year.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: But Scott, right now, we need to talk about the
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: semi finals. Let's talk about it Thursday night. Notre Dame
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Penn State. Notre Dame's land of point over under here
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: is forty five. Where do you think if there is
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: any value in this game? Or you played under?
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: I think both these defenses are gonna play the other offense,
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: I really do.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a low scoring ball game. Man.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: I have ridden Notre Dame all year long. I said
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: going into this that people were down. They were overvaluing
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: that Northern Illinois let down and undervaluing that win at
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Texas A and M and and also undervaluing how bad
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: they kick both Service Academy's asses too, uh, because those
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: both those teams have turned out are pretty good, pretty
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: good football teams, and hanging fifty on them was a
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: pretty good, pretty good accomplishment for Notre Dame. I want
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: to I'm probably going to betting Notre Dame.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Even though I I.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Don't know if they're going with a running back banged up,
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I mean a growing I know he's gonna play, but
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: I know growing doesn't get healthy right away. They could
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: do nothing against Georgia. This is a really good Penn
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: State defense, but I think they're gonna hold them down.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: So I think the value is probably in the under.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Even though games have been going over like crazy.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Well they didn't in the beginning. And so I'm gonna
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: write with you in the under here, I'm to play
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: both ways. I'm gonna play it first half under and
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I'm also gonna play the whole game under. And here's
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: the thing is, if you look at these two teams
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: and they are very similar to one another. There they
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: run similar style defenses, similar style offenses. And so my
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: thought is Penn State's game plan of this is obviously
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: gonna try to be can we I mean Notre Dame
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: wants to run a lot of outside zone, and so
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: the idea is, can we slow down what they've got
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: and try to make Riley Leonard throw the ball? They're
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: gonna leave their corners on an island for most of
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: the game. The Notre Dame wide receivers cannot get separation.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: And on top of that, I don't know how comfortable
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Riley Leonard is thrown into those windows. And so you
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: basically have three running backs that you're having to deal
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: with from there. But I think I Bill Carter, the
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: defensive tackle for Penn State, best I can tell he's
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: gonna play, and he's been posting pictures of the Darth
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Vader mask every day. I'm I'm assuming he's coming right.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: And then when you get onto the other side with
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Penn State, both of those running backs have done a
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: hell of a job and they've been These guys are
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: three years in, they've been on the roster a long time,
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: and so it's gonna be interesting to see because Ayler's
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: has got a little bit more mentality that he thinks
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: he can let it rip. And he's got the arm too.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: You got Tyler Warren there because with Penn State, they
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: were beating the shit out of Bois and it's like
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: they got too cute for themselves. It's like, oh, you know,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: we're winning, so let's try to do some other stuff
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: in the second and then next thing, you know, it's
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: a ballgame. And I kind of wonder what they're gonna
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: do here, And so with Kola, Nikki's gonna dial up.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: I won't be surprised if we don't see some other
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: stuff from Tyler Warren. But Notre Dame I think will
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: be very conservative. Notre Dame could not move the ball
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: on Georgia. You go look at that box score. They
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: had a touchdown that was fifteen yards from the stripsack,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: and then they had that one that was the special teams,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: and other than that, they really struggled to move the
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: ball on Georgia. And so I kind of think you're
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: gonna get it here. That's where I'm gonna go under
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: first half, under full game, and I think that's how
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna play this.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you. I think. Look, I love
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: the job Marcus Freeman's doing. Those guys.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Oh he is such a I mean, he looks like
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: man I would run through damn wall for that guy.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, he looks like he'd be so much fun
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: to play I saw a video of him. You know,
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: he spoke to the team after and they were talking
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: to the team after Kelly resigned, and then he I
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: didn't realize this. He then he walked back out of
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: the locker room and they're like, and you know, and
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: we've already found your next your next head coach. And
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: he opens up the door and the team goes bananas
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: when he comes in. I mean they're all jumping around
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: and going crazy and yelling.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: He just looks like he'd be a ton of fun
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: to play for, and it just seems like such a
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: good dude. You were talking about an African American coach
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: being in the in the championship. That obviously is a
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: is a cool deal. But I thought his response when
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: someone asked him to at it's just like that's a
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: non issue. It's it should be about you know, what
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: kind of job or are we doing? What kind of
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: team have we got? There's nothing I don't like about
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Marks Freeman. I guess that's the gist of what I'll say.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: So yes, I will be cheering for them. I think
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Penn State is the is probably the more talented football team,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: But I don't know that. I don't know that Franklin
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: is gonna out coach him either, even though Freeman's young
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: and got less experience, so so uh, it's gonna be fascinating.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: You are no longer if he makes this, Natty gonna
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: be able to say, James Franklin can't win the big one.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, you go win three playoff games in hell,
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: had you wont a big one?
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: So and and and if somebody's got a chance to
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: beat him, because it's the same thing, oh Ohio State's
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: gonna run in the same thing with Penn State that
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Oregon ran into with. Ohio State's really hard to beat
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: a good team twice. And and it because I have
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: been in these shoes, it is you you do have
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: a little bit of well, we're just gonna go kick
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: their ass again, you know, And it isn't that way.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: The other team's got got GrITT in their teeth.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: They're pissed, you know, and they're gonna give it all
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: their God, they're gonna play better. And a lot of teams,
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: a lot of times that team that won the first
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: one doesn't play as well, so I ain't gonna be
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be fascinating on this whole end.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: But I will bet indech just because I have taken
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: them at seventeen to one for the Natty and I'm
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: hoping I get lucky. I said they were the dark horse.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: They still are the dark horse. I don't think Riley
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Leonard will play as poorly as he did, but that
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: offensive line is good, and I do think they've got
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: a chance to negate a little bit of that of
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: that Penn State defense if that's possible, because it's that's
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: a really really good defense and a really good defensive line.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, So I'm going under both ways. I
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: will be love me like Marcus Freeman a lot. I've
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: never been a Big Game James fan, but I think
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Penn State's the team here and so I won't put
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: the money I have to put the money into it.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: If I could have gotten a hard three earlier in
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: the week, been paying attention because it hit a few times,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I would have played Penn State plus three because I
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: can see it coming down. This to me is gonna
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: be a twenty one twenty seventeen to twenty type game
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: is what my opinion is, and so I think it's
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: to be a great game. I'm looking forward to watching it.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: I am excited, excited to be watching this weekend. I'm
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: gonna be solid tonight. CIRCA estimated they think the handle
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: this weekend with the two college games in the NFL
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: playoffs starting, will be as big as a Super Bowl
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: as how much WOY will have flown through there, just
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: because there's so much big games going on. So I'm excited.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Like I said, let's get this one going. Next one
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Scottie Arlington, Texas. You would assume it's gonna be a
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: home field for the Longhords. We'll see what happens when
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: they get there. Texas and Ohio State. These are both
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: two teams coming into season that you and I said
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: probably had the two best, two of the three best
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: rosters in the country. Ohio State you heard about their
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: twenty million dollar roster and what they were gonna do,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: and pretty much all season long we kind of just wondered,
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: what the hell is going on? And then we got
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: to the Michigan game and we're like, WHOA, what's going on?
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: But here they are, you know, and they've galvanized around
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: the team. But I lost my ass in the Tennessee game,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: and then in the Oregon game, I didn't bet it.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I kind of just sit back and watched it, and
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: I told you this now. I have now watched both
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: of those games on all twenty two three times, and
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: I am convinced Ohio State after the Michigan game, changed
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: their entire offense. If you go look at it, they
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: are not running inside zone read like Chip Kelly, and
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: he's normally That's what he's made a living off of
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: his entire career, is running that inside zone read. And
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: if you're in a blocking scheme for lineman, you're there's
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: reads that go into this, all kinds of stuff. They're
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: running counter. I even went and looked it up on PFF.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: They're running counter sixty seven percent of the time in
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: these last two games, which is they were only doing
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: it fifteen percent of the time for the rest of
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: the season. They have changed it the offensive of how
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: the blocking schemes work, and that in turn has led
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: to massively explosive plays and that's been a huge difference
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: in these last two games because you didn't see a
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: lot of explosion from Ohio State most of the season,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: especially not in the running game, and they had been
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: able to do that against Oregon. They've been able to
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: get against Tennessee. They were both I thought pretty good defenses.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Oregon kind of got exposed. But I like what I'm
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: seeing from Ohio State here, and that defense man is
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: so damn good. So I'm leaning, Oh, I know where
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. But what are your thoughts when you're
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: looking at this game.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: I am betting Ohio State until the breaks come off,
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: because I think Texas is too inconsistent. I mean, they
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: should have buried at that line was eighteen and a half,
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: and Texas thought they were going to cover that. And
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: so I'm sitting on the ski at the ski live
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: beers sitting at the ski lodge, and there it is
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: twenty It is twenty four to six, and are about
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: to be twenty four to six. They have the ball,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I should say, and I'm thinking they're gonna score. I'm
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: gonna get hosed and lose by half point. And then
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: they wet the bed and should have lost the game.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: They have not played a complete football game all year.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: What in the hell makes me think they're gonna do
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: it against the best damn team in the country.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's coming.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: I think I think Ohio State may mop the damn
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: floor with them.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Now I will. There's some great matchups in this game.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Both of the tackles for Texas, assuming they're healthy, matched
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: up with those two defensive ends for uh Ohio State.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Those are all four of those guys are gonna play
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, so you're gonna see some great play out
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: of Sawyer JTT. Both tackles for Texas are fantastic. They've
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: had to kick one of the guards out to on
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: the right side a little bit because of the injuries,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: but I think he's going to be back in this
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: spot here. But since since Ohio State changed their defense
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: after that Oregon game and the way they shifted and
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: they're playing that one highest safety back there, nobody's been
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: able to explode on them. Nobody, and they're so fast
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: and so physical. I don't think Texas can get it done.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I think I think Ohio State's gonna be if they
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: I think they could name their score in this personally,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: I really do. I think they're going to run them
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: out of the building.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: I think yours is he makes some really bad. He
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: misses some easy throws. Let me say that. I mean
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: when he hit I mean when he hit that defensive
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: back for Arizona State in the back and the wide
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: receiver's two yards behind him.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: Hell, it was such a shitty throw.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: He couldn't even go moss the dB because he couldn't
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: get stopped and get around.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, it was awful.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, I just do not think that Texas is
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: going to put four quarters together and Ohio State is
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: now running on eight quarters where they have been all gas,
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: no breaks. My only concern is can they continue to
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: play as well as.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: They've played these last two weeks.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: And I can't not battle on that because they're finally
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: playing like the talent they have. They're finally being coached
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: to the level of their talent, is my opinion, and
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: I think candidly I ain't because kids have had a
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: lot to do with it. I think they got pissed
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: off after Michigan, and I think there's probably some hard
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: conversations I would love to know of the kids. We're
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: kind of like, turn us loose, quit holding us back,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: and whether they actually had to say that, certainly I'll
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: never know, but that certainly has a feel. I know,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: the coaches clearly got it where the they got it
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: on their own or the kids were like, come on,
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: it is clear they have taken their foot off off
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: the break and put it firmly onto the gas pedal.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: And I just think, of I have State's a better
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: football team. I mean, they beat the absolute dogshit out
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: of Oregon, and Oregon's been the best team in the
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: country all year.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: They couldn't do anything.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: They couldn't stop them, they couldn't get them playoff, they
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: couldn't do anything.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: They were I mean, they were just getting crushed.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: And I was watching it with a buddy who's an
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Ohio State fan, and even he is like, holy smokes,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: where's this man?
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's just fun to watch. And I,
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: you know, I can't look. I can't wait to watch
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: the game. I think Kelly is an amazingly arrogant nouche.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, but the guy is a good football coach,
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: and I think he was overthinking it. I think they
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: knew they were so talented. They were trying to not choke,
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: and now they're just letting letting it all hang out.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: I really do feel that way.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: I think they're gonna cover five and a half easy.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: And the only reason that I wouldn't bet the over
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: on this is because I don't know that Texas is
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: gonna be able to score enough to get it over.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'll be honest with you, Mark, if this
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: game's thirty one to seven, thirty four to.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Ten, it would surprise me none.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: I've got thirty five to fourteen is where I think
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: this thing lands, and you're still under the total. But
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: I think Ohio State's clearly in control the whole game.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: I mean the other game I'm kind of cheering for,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: like the old LSU Alabama Daddy, what was the score
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: in that one? Six to nine? Wasn't that the score?
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: That?
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: Oh that that was the regular season game? And then
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: and then Florida, I mean then Bama kind of got
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: after him in the championship game. Uh, six and nine
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: was the was the game in Tuscaloosa that's.
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Right there at the old Mississippi State It was a
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Mississippi State Auburn game.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Baby, Look, people won't remember this, but this is
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: the best part of that game. Sylvester Krume about mid
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: fourth quarter, realizes I'm not gonna go for them. My
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: best chance to win this game is to get another safety,
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: and he kept punting and penning Auburn inside to ten,
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: you know, and he finally got him down at the
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: at the two, and they almost got a safety and
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: would have won that game four to three. That was
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: the ugliest football game ever. And I watched it at
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: your house. Yeah, in the middle of that way, basically
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: recovering from a from a hurricane.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: That would have been a score of gami, you know,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: had they have those games, and the score has never
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: been before four to three.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: I like it.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: So looking at National Championship, I just taking a peek, Uh,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: You've got Ohio States floating around minus won ten to
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: one thirty, Texas plus four fifty, Penn State plus four
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: seventy five, Notre Dame plus four twenty five. So I
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: don't know that there's any value in land Ohio State
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: minus one thirty because that's probably gonna be pretty close
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: to what your money line is going to be if
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: you wanted to play that game. So I don't know
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: why you take that risk, but there may be some
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: value it. I'll throw this out there to you, depending
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: on who you think it's gonna get there. Is betting
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: on the National Championship MVP. You can get Will Howard
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: at two to one. You can get Jeremiah Smith, it's
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: four and a half to six to one, depending on
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: what book.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: Jeremiah Smith's to play, it's either Ham or trade Vound Henderson.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: Well, and you get Trayvon Henderson at twenty five to one.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: So I'm kind of thinking, if you've got some pizza money,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: you think Ohio State's gonna win the Natty, your best
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: bet would be to take maybe you take two units
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: and split it up between Howard, Jeremiah Smith, Trayvon and
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Trayvon Henderson and drop it in there and hoping that
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Henderson has a game similar to the game he had
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: against against Oregon and put some more touchdowns in and
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: you may cast you a twenty five to one ticket there.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that is uh, that's certainly the way. Look,
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: I'm I'm gonna hold on tight and hope my fighting
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: irish that I get lucky. But uh, I think that
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: comes to a halt this weekend, unfortunately. But I'm still
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: gonna bet them. But I don't think there's any doubt
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: that you're betting on a betting on an Ohio State
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: player figuring out who you think it's gonna be. Smith
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: would be mine for for the money, it's certainly, you know,
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: for a four to one pay day, that's a pretty good,
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: pretty good chance.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: If you think, if you think that here Dame is
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: gonna get beat, do you take a Tyler Warren at
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: sixteen to one to win the MVP? That would that'd
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: be so awesome. Yeah, I'm saying Cam scattagu who won
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: the MVP of that game and they lost, it's the
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: first time that that's happened in forever.
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: Well, he deserves it. At that kid, all that kid
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: played So I thought he played great. I thought Genty
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: played good. I thought Genty played great because at the
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: end of the day, Genty's really all that team had.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: I think we all knew that, especially when they started
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: playing a high end team and everybody's like, oh, he's
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: getting stuffed. I was again, Ski watched part of the
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: game in the bar and he goes, look, oh god.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: So now he's playing the real team.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: I'm like, the you watching this guy's breaking like eight
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: tackles every game.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: He had nine guys hit.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: Him on that one run where he gave the first
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: time he got ten yards on the run, had nine
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: guys hit him. Now guys in the first contact was
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: at the line of scrimmage. I'm like, I don't know
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: what game you're watching, but it ain't say one I'm watching.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: This guy's impressive. I think Genty did more for his
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: draft stock in that game than he has all year,
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: probably because of how good that defense was. So I
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: thought Skataboo and Genty were great, so much fun to watch.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: Gonna miss Camp's kataboo. God, I hope the Steelers draft
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: his ass. Oh, it's just it would be fabulous.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: Harris.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: Well, they're getting rid of they're getting rid of Naji,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: so they didn't they didn't pick up the fifty year
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: optional Harris, So that's gonna be that'll be interesting.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: You tell about a guy who's Taylor made for the
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: Black and Gold. It is cam'skataboo, baby.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: I mean when they kept cutting over to his dad,
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: he's over there, it is.
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: How about he's going I mean, he's going hardcore.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Everybody was cheering for him. I mean the only people
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: cheering for Texas in the country that were watching that game,
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: like we're true Texas fans, because anybody else was like,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: if you were just casually watching the game, you were
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: getting on board with it. If you didn't know who
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: Jake Plumber was. He's going nuts. Scataboo is throwing up.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: I mean literally I threw up on the first and
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: my wife got mad at me. This fool those up
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: on the first and he wins the MVP. I mean
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: it's like he's throwing passes, he's catching fly routes and
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: getting tell the tall and he was like, what can
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: this guy not do? He was like a superhero down there.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: It was amazing. He thought he played great. Kenny Dillingham
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: kudos to him too. I want to I thought he
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: handled just the entire deal pretty pretty classy. But that
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: guy's living his dream. It is always fun to watch
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: somebody live out their dream. I mean, that guy grew
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: up cheering for Arizona State, going to ball games since
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: he was a kid, and just watching him have them
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: in the playoff and candidly what feels like getting them
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: set up to be a good football team, because that
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: has always been a program that has felt like it's underachieved,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: and it doesn't feel like it's about to stay that
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: way with everything that's going on. And I would think
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: he's certainly gonna be able to get some running backs
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: after what Scattaboy's.
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: Been able to do.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: So just really, the playoff here, one hundred percent right,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: has been has been outstanding, been fun. Even though some
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: of the games have not been great because they've been
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: really one sided, it has there have been some great
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: moments in it too. And part of the reason Ohio
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: State's games hasn't been closed is because they have been flawless.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: I mean they have looked really really good. Tennessee is
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: not nearly as bad as they made them look, and
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: neither's Oregon, and they made both those teams look pedestrian.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: On the other side, I know we talked about college
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: football all season long, but with the NFL playoffs on
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Saturday and Sunday, have you peaked at any of these
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: lines yet?
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've looked at I've looked at several. That's speaking
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: of the Steelers. Holy smokes, that line's huge for a
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: rivalry game.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Well you dropped it finally went under ten today. It's
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: not a nine and a half.
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: So yeah, well it's I mean it's because those games.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, look the Steelers. Hell, they've only beaten them.
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: Lamar's only beat I'm like twice, and one of them
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: was two or three weeks ago. So I mean, I
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: you know, it's a you know that if the Steelers
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: were just remotely decent, But that looks like that looks
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: like a team that has slid off the skids, and
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: there's clearly some locker room issues. So if I'm a
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: if I'm a sporting man, I think your money is
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: on the Ravens. I think they're gonna I think they
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: may pound my Steelers this weekend.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: I have several investments on Ravens to win the whole things,
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: because I think they're the best team in this deal.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: But Derrick Henry, WHOA that guy. I was reading this
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: article today. At his age, he's averaging one point seven
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: yards per carry, more than EMITTT Smith was when emmittt
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: was thirty. And that dude hits the corner and it's
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: like he is shot out of a gun, and I'm
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: he's an animal, I mean, and he looks like he's
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: having so much fun playing for them. Thank you for
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: leaving Tennessee because I had a terrible franchise, apparently, but
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: I've been I've enjoyed it all. So yeah, I'm looking
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: forward to the whole weekend. College football is gonna be great.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: Hit us up if you want to talk about it
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: on Twitter, give us some reviews, some ratings. We'll be
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: back next week to talk championship. We'll try to look
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: at some derivative lines, Scott do I may even try
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: to drive into some player props. When you've only got
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: one game, you've got to dig into these types of things.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: But with all that being said, everybody, enjoy the game.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: If you're in the Midwest, enjoy you some cold weather
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: and some snow. If you're in Dallas, be safe and
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: we'll talk to you next week.
