Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, so we'll do some stamps. Let's stamp Michigan
- 0:02Speaker 1: too high. Oh, wait, they're not up here. They're gone.
- 0:05Speaker 1: So too high.
- 0:07Speaker 2: If I was looking at a team that I thought
- 0:09Speaker 2: was too high on this list, it's interesting that I
- 0:17Speaker 2: love this team.
- 0:18Speaker 1: I think this team is going to be really, really good.
- 0:21Speaker 1: What I saw from them I liked. What I saw
- 0:23Speaker 1: from them I liked. Too high.
- 0:26Speaker 2: I'm going to do exactly what I would have done
- 0:29Speaker 2: a week ago. We're going to find out this week
- 0:32Speaker 2: one versus four.
- 0:34Speaker 1: I like Ohio State.
- 0:35Speaker 2: I don't think they're the best team in the country.
- 0:38Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of things that I wouldn't
- 0:41Speaker 2: and they could change this week. It could change this week,
- 0:44Speaker 2: but watching the tape right tackle. Can they get the
- 0:47Speaker 2: running game going defensively? Do they have stars like I'm
- 0:50Speaker 2: going to I'm going to see and it's not that
- 0:52Speaker 2: I don't like Ohio State.
- 0:53Speaker 1: They listen. This is good.
- 0:54Speaker 2: 56 points a game.
- 0:56Speaker 1: I mean, they played Ball State. Collin Plays was like.
- 0:59Speaker 3: Okay, let's see. They're averaging 671 yards a game now.
- 1:03Speaker 1: Yeah. All right. So I would go if I was–
- 1:11Speaker 1: I'm going to go too high. I would go too high. Really? Yeah.
- 1:16Speaker 2: I would go too high and I would do this.
- 1:19Speaker 2: Because we've already talked about them enough.
- 1:20Speaker 1: We don't need this. This is too low for me.
- 1:23Speaker 2: I don't, I don't, I don't, I get it. And
- 1:25Speaker 2: I get, we get people in boxes and will this work?
- 1:29Speaker 1: I saw it work.
- 1:31Speaker 2: It's, it's, it's, it was the best performance of the weekend.
- 1:34Speaker 2: And these, it needs to be right there.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Okay. Number one. Okay.
- 1:40Speaker 3: I could take that.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Okay. Well, good. Well, now you do yours.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Then don't you.
- 1:45Speaker 3: Never would ask. Let's go ahead and clear this thing off.
- 1:51Speaker 1: Bottom one. Yeah, baby. We're going to learn how to
- 1:53Speaker 1: use this thing by the end of the year.
- 1:54Speaker 3: We're going to be experts at using this. My team,
- 1:58Speaker 3: it's a few teams on here. I look at the
- 2:00Speaker 3: movement from 17 to 19. I also look at the
- 2:03Speaker 3: number one spot. But, David, just to have some diversity
- 2:09Speaker 3: on this board to keep everybody engaged, I'm going to
- 2:13Speaker 3: say my two low No, no, no. Let's take that back.
- 2:23Speaker 3: We're going to go with my too high of the week.
- 2:25Speaker 1: I like it. Stay negative first. Yeah. Is. You even
- 2:31Speaker 1: covered up the logo. I like that. No, no, no.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Leave it right. Oh, you can drag it? I didn't
- 2:35Speaker 1: know you could do that. Okay.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Why?
- 2:37Speaker 3: The reason why is, Kevin Jennings, you look at the
- 2:41Speaker 3: turnovers that he had. I don't understand how can you
- 2:45Speaker 3: move from number 19 to 17 without with that type
- 2:48Speaker 3: of performance versus Florida State. Florida State was ranked last week, right?
- 2:52Speaker 2: No.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Exactly.
- 2:53Speaker 3: That's the reason why. That's the reason why. And so
- 2:57Speaker 3: I felt like Florida State, defensively, they really peeled back
- 3:01Speaker 3: the onion and showed everybody the formula, which has been
- 3:04Speaker 3: the formula over the past two years. apply pressure, get
- 3:08Speaker 3: in his face, and he'll turn the football over. So
- 3:11Speaker 3: for me, yeah, I still think they belong in the
- 3:13Speaker 3: top 20, but I don't see, I can't justify bringing
- 3:18Speaker 3: SMU all the way up to 17. I just can't.
- 3:20Speaker 1: Should Louisville still be in the top 25? Are you okay?
- 3:24Speaker 3: No.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Okay, because Louisville, obviously, they lost.
- 3:27Speaker 3: They lost. And they up out of here.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Yeah, they lost. They lost to number nine. So I
- 3:32Speaker 2: was wondering if people think.
- 3:34Speaker 1: I just.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Here's what I'll say. Everybody in the top 25 won
- 3:38Speaker 2: except for Louisville.
- 3:40Speaker 1: So obviously.
- 3:41Speaker 2: They're the only other team that played a ranked opponent.
- 3:43Speaker 2: They played number nine, and it was a great game.
- 3:45Speaker 2: But see, to me, I want to keep seeing what
- 3:47Speaker 2: Louisville does. I want to keep seeing what Ole Miss does.
- 3:50Speaker 1: That's the thing.
- 3:51Speaker 2: We're getting data points, and then we'll continue to– we're
- 3:55Speaker 2: uneducated making guesses right now on picks. Educated guesses, but
- 4:00Speaker 2: we'll get more info as it goes along.
- 4:02Speaker 1: All right, so who you got too low then?
- 4:04Speaker 3: I think too low, let's go with– Ah, this is
- 4:13Speaker 3: a tough one. This is a tough one. But let's
- 4:17Speaker 3: go with the two low right here. I'm gonna go
- 4:19Speaker 3: with Oregon. I feel like Oregon, what they did, yeah,
- 4:24Speaker 3: it was... Meh.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Underperforming. Meh.
- 4:28Speaker 3: Underwhelming. But I don't think it's justifiable to really put
- 4:33Speaker 3: them outside of the top five. And the reason why
- 4:35Speaker 3: I say this is because maybe this was something in
- 4:39Speaker 3: case reference to the first game of the season. You
- 4:42Speaker 3: come out and you really didn't understand the assignment of
- 4:47Speaker 3: Boise State. Boise State came out there and they realized, man,
- 4:50Speaker 3: we don't have nothing to lose. And they took them
- 4:53Speaker 3: all the way down to the wire. So for me,
- 4:56Speaker 3: do I think it justifies moving them out of the
- 4:58Speaker 3: top five? No, because Boise State is no, they ain't
- 5:02Speaker 3: no piece of garbage. They are legit. They'll be in
- 5:06Speaker 3: the playoffs. They'll definitely be in the playoffs. And if
- 5:08Speaker 3: you are Boise State, that's one loss that the voters
- 5:12Speaker 3: will look back at the end of the year if
- 5:14Speaker 3: they run the table. That's one loss that they'll say,
- 5:17Speaker 3: you know what? They lost to Oregon, the number two
- 5:19Speaker 3: team in the nation. So I think it's justifiable.
- 5:22Speaker 2: You know what's crazy is Boise going into that game
- 5:26Speaker 2: was three and one versus Oregon. Three and one.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Against the Ducks. That's crazy.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Like they've some reason played them well when they were
- 5:36Speaker 2: undefeated two years ago in 2024.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Remember that was a one possession game. Yeah. Oregon returned
- 5:42Speaker 1: a punt, a kick, like just to get there and
- 5:44Speaker 1: be in the mix. So it's always a good game.
- 5:46Speaker 2: But I think it's important to understand the context of this.
- 5:50Speaker 2: Some of this we're going to have to take some
- 5:52Speaker 2: liberties and we're going to have to guess.
- 5:54Speaker 1: I mean, it's just going to be part of it.
- 5:55Speaker 2: But I think Virginia earned their way into the top 25.
- 5:59Speaker 1: You might could have put them higher.
- 6:00Speaker 2: And I don't– if you put them above Iowa, if
- 6:02Speaker 2: you put them above Utah, like Washington with what they
- 6:06Speaker 2: did in frying pan to the head– I would have
- 6:10Speaker 2: been okay, but what we're going to see with Ohio
- 6:12Speaker 2: State this week.
- 6:15Speaker 3: And, you know, you hear some rumblings. People can say
- 6:17Speaker 3: Louisville lost, right? But they lost to Ole Miss, right?
- 6:21Speaker 1: Yeah, they lost to nine.
- 6:22Speaker 3: Yeah, they lost to number nine team. So is it
- 6:24Speaker 3: really justifiable? No, I still like them where they are now, though.
