  Speaker 1: Baby Back to Me which is which is a good
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: one too. But that's a classic cent To Bowl update

  Speaker 1: for you. They are late in the third quarter. The
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: famous Idaho Potato Bowl in northern Illinois and Fresno State

  Speaker 1: one and one big one handling forty four to fifteen
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: of our Coastal Carolina on Coastal's home field in the
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Myrtle Beach Bowl. So they did win that contest. On

  Speaker 1: may apply. We had a couple of a couple of
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: well CBS says, don't forget the Christmas classic, dominate the
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Italiate Christmas Donkey. I've heard that probably won't make the
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: playlist this afternoon. I'm just saying it probably won't. And
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: then Cebee also said, when I was talking about the
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Peach Bowl and Texas playing Arizona State, he said, you know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Chris Jesse should be an honorary captain for the Peach Bowl.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something, and what he's referring to
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: is the only other time that Texas has played Arizona
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: State and football, and it was the Holiday Bowl in
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: two thousand and seven and the Longhorns had an up
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: and down season that they still ended up winning ten games.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: But our friend Brod Babers said that he always remember
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Mac Brown saying that was a team he did not like.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: He didn't like to collect a personality and approach to
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: those guys, and they had to kind of get their
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: act together. And of course they lost a game over
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: in the College Station to Texas A and M, which
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I think proved to be Dennis Franchooni's final game at
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: A and M.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: And it just it had a weird vibe to it
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: that you.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Remember they almost lost early in the year the Central
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Florida they played UCF at the christening the opening of
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: the brand new stadium, and they had a game interruption
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: for a mid afternoon thunderstorm, and when they came back,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: it was like a sauna and the guys barely survived
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: and won like thirty five thirty two, so it wasn't
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: but if it ended on a good note, they beat
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Arizona State and beat them handily in the bowl game,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: and I think it was like fifty two to thirty
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: five or something like that. But anyway, they beat him
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: in the bowl game fifty two twenty seven, I believe.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: And there was a moment in the first half where
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: there was a ball that bounced over to the sidelines,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: a live ball, like a wolf of a fumble, and
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: you see the guy who was Mac Brown's step son,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Sally's son, Chris Jesse, who was over there on the sidelines,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: and he reached out almost as if he was going
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: to touch the football and it missed him.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: The other guy and this is the one that really it.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Was just kind of a reactive thing that had happened
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: for Chris, young guy at the time.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: But Cleve Bryant was the operations.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Guy and he did the same thing and it went
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: over there and it was kind of swiping at the ball.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: It was. It was a bizarre night in in UH.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: What I said was, and I've said this before, is
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: one of the worst stadiums ever to UH to have football,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: and let alone a bowl game in Uh was the
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: old Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, and it was just
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: kind of dank and cold and messy and you know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: and and not real good. So uh, but Texas did
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: win that Bowl game, so we'll see, you know, we'll
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: see how it goes from there.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: NFL notes here before we get to the top of
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: the hour, Not only did the Cowboys win last night, uh,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: and of course they're they're now just one game above
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: five or they could actually wind up with a winning
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: record in nine and eight. Now that obviously me nothing
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: in terms of trying to make the playoffs and coming
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: up short and all that other kind of stuff, but
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: you should probably be fore warned and forearmed on this.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: If the Cowboys win their last two, Now, the next
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: week's gonna be difficult, this coming when they play the Eagles,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: but then they play the Commanders, but the last game
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of the year, and they play them at home. If
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: if if they wind up winning those two games, they're
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: gonna be nine and eight.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: They're gonna finish nine and eight.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying, don't be surprised if Jerry Jones brings
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy back as head coach. It seemed to be
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion when they were losing that he was
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: not going to do that. But now, well I just
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: have to wait and see. Off of that, NFC number
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: one seed is really thrown into a hectic situation. What
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: with the Eagles loss. You have Lions and the Vikings
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: are coming on like gangbusters right now. I mean they
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: really are coming on strong. And the Packers won again
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: as well, so we know some really tough wildcard teams
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: are gonna come out of there. In the NFC West,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: the Rams can win the division if they win one
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: of their last two games. What was Seattle's loss yesterday,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: so we'll follow that. And then in the AFC, we
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: know that the Steelers and the Ravens are still fighting
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: for the top spot. In the NFC North Kansas City
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: is the best record overall, and the wildcard race still
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: continues right now, although there's almost some separation blow with
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the Chargers and Broncos, you know, ahead of teams that
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: still have a mathematical shot like the Colts and the Dolphins.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: All right, we have one more hour of the show
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: to go. We're gonna hear more from Steve Sarkisian and
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: also from Kenny Dillingham and in case you missed that
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: highlight mon Tige that Cameron Parker flew ridden in all
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: managed to put together for us. That's coming up next
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: here on Sports Radio AUM thirteen Under the Zone.
