  Speaker 1: if you'd like to text the program, all you have

  Speaker 1: to do is text the word Texas follow by your
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: question of comment to eight one five to three zero.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: So it's the word Texas followed by your question and
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: comment to eight one five three zero Standard Messaging in
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: data hb AP. Plier Man's said, I like these odds.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: I think he was talking about the rams when they
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: had the had the uh you know, the safety was
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: awarded them. I agree with you. They should have called
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the face mask. That was a missed call, no doubt
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: about it. But it would have left the score twenty
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: eight twenty. The Vikings would have a first down at
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: their own twenty.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: They would have been.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Eighty yards away and having to drive all that in
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: seventy five seconds with no timeout.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: You're telling me you haven't seen other incredible things happen
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: on a football field, Craig. You clearly have. You've seen
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: crazy things happen. Yes, I have happened, Yes I have.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: But for you to unequivocally say they would win the game,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I think it's a little far fetched.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Don't you think we go to overtime? Okay, all right,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: we'll see.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: We'll see if they could get down and do what
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: they couldn't do since the first half score touchdown, then
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: hit a two point conversion afterwards, Then and only then
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: would it get to overtime if that happened. But you know,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: I understand fandom. It's important. Vandom is a big thing.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I get it, you know. So anyway, which in the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: first hour of the program, the Big Twelve Conferences, there
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: was no foul play with the unsecured helmet communications signals.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: The Big Twelve announced none of its games were compromised
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: by unencrypted frequencies. Actually, I think that's the name of
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: a band playing down in Austin this week is unencrypted frequency. Anyway,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: none of the games were compromised by unencrypted frequencies used
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: with the coach to player in game communications this season.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: There were sources who told the ESPN yesterday that coach
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: to player communications for all powerful college football games this
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: season have been on unencrypted frequencies, and that Texas Tech
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: requested a report from the Big Twelve on its recent
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: games against TCU and Baylor, both of which were losses,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: to ensure the integrity of the games were not compromised.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Athletic director Kirby Hocutt said he raised the issue during
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: a call with Big Twelve athletic directors on Tuesday after
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: learning that anyone with a scanner in knowledge of how
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: to locate the frequencies had access to those in game communications.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: You want to know who has the scanner and those
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: in kind of in game communications, because you're not going
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: to be bringing it into the stadium if you're a fan, okay,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: and if you're a coach, it's probably not gonna be
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: happen there.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: They have crews that set up those types of things.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Andrew and Rason does a great job for the University
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of Texas getting their coach headset communication set up, so
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. But I started taking You know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: there's a gentleman by the name of Kelly Moore. That's
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: his name, not to be confused with the paint company
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Kelly Moore. He is a frequency coordinator savant in the
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Dallas Fort Worth metroplex. He is the frequency coordinator for
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Cherry World at T Stadium, globe Ightfield in Arlington, Amon
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, and also Floyd Casey Stadium
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: in Wakeup. That guy is what some might refer to
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: as a frequent Nazi, because I'm going to tell you
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: if you weren't on the right frequency, he will come
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and tell you how the cow choose the cabbage. Because
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: we were like one position off one time for a
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: game and he came in and was and he had
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: this thing that looked like a big old Geiger counter
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: and it had and it had all these frequencies and
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: he was like, you can't be on this, You're on
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: the wrong You gotta your equipment and a you know,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: we're like, yess sir.

  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, here we go. We'll get an update
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: on that other game going on. Yeah, it'll So it's
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: it's it's pretty unique, it's pretty interesting. So anyway, they
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: said that that wasn't that wasn't the case. The Big
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Twelve issued this statement today and I quote. Following the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: industry wide concerns surrounding helmet communications, the Big Twelve conducted
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: a review of conference games and helmet communications processes to
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: address any issues member institutions raised regarding this matter. The
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: review show that at no point was any Big Twelve
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: competition compromised. In addition, all Big Twelve helmet communication programs
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: now have the update from GSC. That's the company that
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: handles it for all the Power Forward leagues. GSC that
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: provides the encryption, and schools may either use Coach Commerce
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: GSC for coach the player communications at their discretion.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: So they're saying it's all good, no problems, So.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: There's no Connor Stallion story here.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. I don't think so.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: I don't think I was trying to make Connor Stallions
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: joke the entire time you're breaking that down. I was trying.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: I couldn't come up with anything.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Okay, feel free to make a joke about the Yankees
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: fifth inning if you want.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: You know that in the stadium. Yeah, no, markonies in
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: the stadium.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: World Series ended last night, Dodgers.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: We talked quite a bit about it in the first
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: couple of hours the program at Gene Watson on with
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: us our MLB Insider. If you missed that conversation, you
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: can go back to our podcast page and listen to
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the conversation talking about not only did the Yankees make
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the mistakes in the fifth and they did, but they
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: still had chances to get out of it with no
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: damage done before the ground ball when Garrett Cole kind
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of went brain dead and didn't cover the bag, so
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: that allowed one run they score, and then he had
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: a chance to get out of it and gave up
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: back to back hits a single in the double front.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: So for anybody that's saying.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, Garrett Cole was so victimized, he victimized, you know,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: by his defense behind him. Listen, Garrett Cole contributed to
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: his own demise a by not covering the bag at
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: first and b you know, giving up the two run
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: single to Freddie Freeman and the two run double to
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: take Oscar Hernandez.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: But you know what, the stars are just like us, Greg,
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: because I'd made that same mistake in middle school and
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: I didn't hear the end of it. My dad still
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: brings it up. So me and Garrett Cole we have
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: something in.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Com pitch for The New York Yankees were making three
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: hundred million dollars.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You know that is true.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: You watched tons of baseball a bunch of the hot
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Have you ever seen something like that?
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Not quite like that, not quite like that.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: I've seen him hesitant, but not completely just stopped dead
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: in their tracks. So anyway, congratulations the Dodgers. They win
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: their eighth World Series. The Yankees still have the all
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: time record twenty seven World Series. They also have lost fourteen,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: including Ford No No, because that allowed winning runs to score.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: The Yankees, remember, came back and retained took the lead
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: in the ballgame. No, it's not worse than the Buckner gaff.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Thanks for making me feel a little bit better, Craig.
• 7:26
