• 2:01
  Speaker 1: and M climbing the ranks in the ap pole.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: And you know, I don't know what to what to.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Make of Saturday other than hey, you survive in advance
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: in this league. I don't care if you're home away,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I don't care what kind of team it is. You
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: win and you go to the next one, right, I
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: mean that's the bottom line. Okay, it's our job to
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: have overreaction Monday, But the bottom line is they're four
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: to o, they won, and now they get ready to
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: play Mississippi State.
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, four and oh for the first time is in
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: nine years, So I mean that's good. Right, Yeah, it's
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: it's it's better to be four and oh and frustrated
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: than it is to be you know, trying to feel
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: optimistic about two and two, you know. Yeah, So yeah,
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: I think there's it was a frustrating game in a
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: lot of ways. No one left that stadium with just
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: I mean tremendous feelings of oh, how satisfied was that?
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: We've seen A and M lose those games a lot.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: No doubt. Yeah.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Here's which is the point he's made both after the
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: game and today.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: You don't need to be frustrated with how they play.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, you don't have to be frustrated their four
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: and oh. That's that's number one. You can deal with
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: the other stuff. And I think Kirby Smart watched one
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: of his post games. He said it best. He said, Hey,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: we had a tough game last week and lost. We
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: had a tough game, mean one. What a tough game
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: this week and one next week We're going a tough
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: game again. And that's kind of like the SEC was.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: You know, Mississippi State looked like a pushover it. Maybe
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: they will be on Saturday, but they should have beaten
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Tennessee in Tennessee should have beaten. You start doing it,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: should it? You just got to take care of your
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: own business. And if you have twenty penalties, as long
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: as you win, got to win it. What do we
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: say when all of this started, right, you must win
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: your home games.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you had to win these three in a row
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and steal one or two on the road somehow.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: But you gotta win your home games.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: You gotta steal in those one or two on the road.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Doesn't seem so impossible more correct. One, And you look
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: at L.
• 4:02
  Speaker 7: S U.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: And I watched that L. S U Ole Miss game,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: Uh you know parts of it, and.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: YE like, yeah, L s U.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Just they're not They're not good offensively, I mean they're.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Not who would have thought of that? Right?
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: And their quarterback is not nearly as good as I
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: thought it was going to be either.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: No, he is not playing at a high school trophy level.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: He's in the level right now when you when you
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: got a mess and go on these on these road trips,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: your quarterback needs to be elevated. We saw that. We
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: saw that on Saturday, that he's terrible. I said he
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: was terrible before the game. He was even worse during
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: the game. They can't win with that quarterback. They cannot win.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Hugh Free should be and he he obviously doesn't have
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: anybody else or or he'd be in the game because
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Auburn can't win with Jackson Arnold.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: No, that's an awful offense. That's terrible, really bad offense.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: And they have a decent running back and they've got
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: two really good receivers. I think they have two NFL receivers.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Their running back is good. He may not be great,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: but he's good. And it's obvious that their offensive line sucks. Now,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know how bad they are versus how well
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: AM's defensives played, because I think they're played pretty well.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: But the week before they gave up nine sacks right
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: to Oklahoma. And yes, I'm talking about two pretty good
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: defensive football teams in college football, But still, what's that
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: sixteen sacks and two games? But half of those and
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: we talked about it in Oklahoma when when Oklahoma and
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Opera played, then he holds the ball forever.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: You know, they had one play, you know, offensively, one
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: play that may have been an interception, you could argue,
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean, it was probably a tie
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: that goes to the receiver. But that's the only play
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: that they had, that's right. And other than that, they
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: didn't do anything OFFENSI they scored three points offensively, Yeah,
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: and I and him kept him in the game with
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: you know, the interception, right, but that's the only thing
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: that kept him in there. Yeah, And you kind of
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: step away and you're like, do I feel a lot
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: different if the final score was twenty seven to three
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: as opposed to sixteen to ten. Yes, look I probably do.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: And you know, if they don't throw that pick, they punched.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: That in and unless I get penalties.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: Well that's probably true too. But you know, and then
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: they missed two field goals, so if you make one
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: of those and then you well, it's a.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Fourteen point swing, right, they had the touchdown take it
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: away because of the penalty, they gave up a touchdowns.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: Thirty to three, you feel a lot different than sixteen ten.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Nice ten, even if they take the field goal. But
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: here's the deal, what we always talking about. We talk
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: about coaching and talent. Some of those offensive linemen, other
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: big schools wanted them, but Auburn got them in the Trent.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: You look at a running back came in. He hadn't
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: been caught behind the line all year. They have two
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: NFL receivers, So what happens they've got a horrible quarterback.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Sometimes your quarterback elevates the rest of the team. Sometimes
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: the team elevates the quarterback. They Auburn can do neither,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: and that some of that goes on coaching, whether it's
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Freeze or the guy calling place. They had no imagination,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: did you It looked like Jimbo in the deal that
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: he doesn't do motion. You know, they did very little motion.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: They did nothing in.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: But you know what, I think they don't do it
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: because they don't believe that the quarterback can do it
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: cease exactly.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: And then they're flaying to jumping off sides or doing
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: something and do it and put them in the hole
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: and put them in the hole. And that is a
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: bad football team.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: The bottom line right now, I think they're pretty good defensively, Yeah, yeah,
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: I think they're pretty good defensively.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, offensively, right, yeah you're backup.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a bad offensive team for sure.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was. I was impressed with Dirk. If
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: you talk about how things can change, I always worry
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: about a team coming off of bye week. So it
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: ain't em gets the ball four plays sixty six yards.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I go, this is going to be a blowout. I said,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Dirkins had all week and that's the best he can do.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: And then A and M struggles to get three field
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: goals after that, after that four plays they get a touchdown.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: All they can do is get three field goals.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the disappointing part because I mean the
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: plays were there, and you know, the touchdown they got
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: called back, you know, with the penalty, and you know,
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: I mean that's just just.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: The penalties and mistakes, right Because levy On Moss looks
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: like a man. He is playing an All American caliber
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: I mean Tory and York on the other side of Tory.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: York had a terrific football game, right, But but I
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: love levy On Moss right now. If he stays healthy,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: he is going to have a terrific year. And he's
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: he's a Saturday. He was as good as I've seen
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: this year. Not the I'm not saying he's better than
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a few, but he's as good as any running back
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I've watched this year, and I've watched quite a few.
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know what, they seem like they were
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: intent on really establishing that yes, because you know, I mean,
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: sometimes not enough I thought, And then sometimes he's like,
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: well are they going to try to get the battle
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: crave today? You know what I mean? Like it's there.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: For a while.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: When you have weapons, you're always saying that, right, right,
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: why didn't he touch it well? Or why didn't he
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: touch it more? Why didn't he touch That's a good
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: problem to have.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: But when you hit that guy, he makes things happen.
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: I get it, and and then it opens up everything else.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: It opens up the running game to a degree.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: You talk about coaching them, Moss, every time I thought
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: he goucked off, he moved a piles got thirty.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: That one play where he carried like six guys for
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: ten yards, that's incredible.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Aam's got third and one. A Zulka said it was
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: more like two previous four plays they get like twenty
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: yards rushing. They don't run the ball, they throw the
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: ball aside twenty yards. Look, I don't mind the play.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: It right, it should be an easy, simple play. It
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: wasn't a good good throw. No, it was not. I
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: don't think it was the right guy in that situation.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: You can't can say something about that one. Almost it
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: goes without. I mean it hasn't been mentioned. But if
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: Buffy needs to make a little bit more effort on
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: the tackle there, I mean, my gosh, what a weak effort.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: I understand.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: He's a wide receiver, but I mean that was one
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: of the weakest efforts I saw tackles. Give me a break.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: It's like I said, it's always in hindsight. What do
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: I always say, I don't care what play you call,
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: make it the right play. And that wasn't the right play.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: And when you have all these options, like I said,
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: you got if you got two downs, you think loss
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: third and one and a half. And he's been caught
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: behind the line once all year. Basically he can't pick
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: that up.
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was just disappointing because the A and M
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: was just I mean, they were they were pile driving Auburn.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: I mean they were pushing them back, and Auburn was
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: just like giving up, and then that one play keeps
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: them in the game.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: And I'll steal a page for Milka. That being said,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: all those things, they won easily. It was their game.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: They dominated it.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: They won easily, but not it doesn't look like.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: It didn't feel that way.
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: I got it because you're a six points.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: But I had left the way to me. They just
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: kind of run it in the line the last three
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: times and punted because they didn't they want to screw
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: it up.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: I'm watching that game thinking, there's no way Auburn can
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: score offensive. They're not going to drive.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: That's right, everybody happen Auburn knew it.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: So they won the game and they go three and
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: out right after that first place. You're talking about the
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: run three plays and punts three plays, but four plays, yeah, game.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Over, game over. So the bottom line is, I ain't
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: m will be better for that. You see. That's a
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: good thing about winning a little bit ugly because you
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: work on it. And those guys like Adams you talk about,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: here's an All American candidate. He is two yards down
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: pass where he's supposed to be plays not even near him.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: So what was called in the huddle? He's one of
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: your all Americans and he has a mental fart and
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: he's I just thought that was a horrible call. Though
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: I thought it was a terrible call, but they showed it.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: He's got to be back. I understand, but man, I
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: get it. It's it's nitpicky. But don't put yourself in episode.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: You're right, I mean, you're right. It's just and I
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: have this theory.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: If you're a really heavily penalized team, and so you
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: just told me that the second the nation right now
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: is that total penalties total, the referees are gonna be
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: looking for.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: You exactly exactly.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: They're gonna be looking for you. Well, it's interesting because
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: Mississippi's missip states number three, number three. Yeah, so you
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: got number two versus number three.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Be a long game, It could be. It's be a
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: long You're right, because what what do officials do in basketball?
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: This guy files all the time? Yes, side, yeah, this guy,
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: this guy is wild. You won't throw strikes, gonna throw
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: a lot of balls. Yeah, So you have a reputation.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: So if you got to any game, oh man, I'm
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: gonna throw a lot of a lot of penalties. These
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: guys do everything wrong.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Having said that, as much football as I watch, there
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: aren't too many officiating crews that aren't throwing a lot
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: of penalties right now. It's just it's pretty amazing to me.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: SEC is the worst still. I just I keep railing
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: on the officials for a league, for for for a
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: league that is as good and as rich as they are,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: I don't understand why they have such poor officiating and
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: why they cannot hold their officials publicly accountable for mistakes
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: they made.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Well, I would say, I hate to be say this, Chip,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: but in the SEC, you make the wrong call in
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Auburn Alabama game, might be a little bit worried about
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: those guys.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: No, but everybody knows who they are. Anyway, everybody already knows.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: But if you put it out there for everybody, I mean,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I'm just sorry. You know, there's psychos that don't read everything.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I think they ought to be accountable. If you're going
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: to tell me holding is a number seventy one, then
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: you tell me who the official was that blew the call.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: And on Monday you put out a statement saying yeah,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: after reviewing the tape, John Doe made a bad call.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: Well, I think a lot of that had to do
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: with statements that were out there. You know that the
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: officials came in here with a little axtra grind against
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: Auburn and they were going to call every.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Little thing at Oklahoma.
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: Well but they did, But then Auburn had to go
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: out and you know, put it.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Maybe their own penalty problems.
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: Yes they did. And I mean that statement that they
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: put out there about you know how the officials said
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: they messed it up. He seems right, and so yeah,
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: I thought the nitpicky was they came in here, those
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: officials came in there wanting to throw flags.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Well it probably told hey, don't if you're going to
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: miss a call, don't miss it on Auburn, right, they
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: cost him a game last week, So probably that was said,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: even though they'll publicly never say that, won't say that
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Auburn had. Auburn had ten penalties.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: You know, I and M had thirteen, Auburn had ten,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: So not the horrible discrepancy there.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: And to be honest, most of Auburn's were very at
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: of them are pre snap because the crowd whatever, and
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: they are very very noticeable. Yes, in other words, it
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Elcher brings up a good point, which ones like he
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: said publicly, I mean he was unpressed corded. They had
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: thirteen he said, two that he definitely thought were wrong. Well,
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: two out of eleven out of thirteen. That's probably pretty
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: good for SEC officials think around like thirteen right, really good. Yeah,
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: that means they got eleven out of thirteen wrong.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: They you know, I don't want to beat a dead horse,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: but they got to clean that up somehow.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they It's been an ongoing issue now.
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: It has been, and it wasn't. It was an issue
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: last year too, That's what I mean.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: It kind of puzzles me because there's no doubt elchoes
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: a disappearing when you when the guys that were leaving
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: the Jimbo era, we talked to them after the coaching changed.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: They talked about how things were different and very accountable. Yes,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: but we've all raised children, and children will constantly do
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: the wrong thing, even though how many times we tell them.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: And it's got to be very perplexing because they are
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: making all those pre snout penalties and we know, like
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: you know, like I said, you can't be two or
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: post or post whistle post whistle. Yeah, and it's got
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: to be frustrating because he said they making a number
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: one priority. But then you have thirteen penalties and even
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: like I said, you pass too, that means he's still
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: at eleven.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna throw a flag at my daughters. Been in
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: too much mond here?
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I like to penalize he needs to get
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: good luck with that.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, so one hundred and nineteen total yards plus one
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: plus one touchdown play that was called back, a couple
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: of other drives that that were stalled because of that.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: I mean, we're look, it's it's good.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: They were playing Auburn Saturday, right, I mean they have
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: to clean it up if they want to go where
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: they want to go.
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know what, though, I thought Auburn might
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: be the biggest test of these three, you know, and
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: now it looks like Missispi State is going to be
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: the biggest test of the three right right now?
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: It does maybe Florida, who knows, who knows?
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, Florida is a very talented team, even though
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: they don't look it. I just thought Auburn, you know,
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: after watching them, I was like, that's not a good
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: that's not a good offense. I mean that they're never
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: going to score against this A and M defense, is
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: so I thought, well, yeah, that that just that was
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: a nothing kind of team that I thought that A
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: and M beat. And now it's good. It's on papers,
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: it's good. You gotta beat them. They beat you last year, right, So.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: In Oliver needed to come in and win because they
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: were zero and one. Getting back to.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure they're gonna win another game.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: I understand you. No getting back chip. I criticize Klin
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: for his call on third and one, but what I
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: like was next time down there, they ran a pass
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: play in almost the same situation Craward. They go to him,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: he's open touchdown, but then they're downfield, and I laughed
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: because if you're clined, you probably feel a little vindicated.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get back off my guns. We're gonna
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: throw the ball in the red zone. They do, they score,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: but they got a lineman downfield, you know, just he
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: priced and just kicked me in the head, you know.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you can't win at that point. You
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: got one hundred and five thousand critics plus three.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah here, So and then at one play they scored
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: going down to the left and they had a stupid,
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: stupid penalty. I mean, they make this big, big play
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, you got a penalty.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: You gotta bring it, and it's very obviously he knocked
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: the guy. Now he's unblievable. So you think we could
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: get some Le'Veon moss, some some medication before the game,
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: so he could, you know, not throw up the entire
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: first quarter and play more plays. Well he might. I
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: hope he wasn't eating over at Craters because everybody goes
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: eating creators. Remember he's supposed to be such a great cook.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Or No, no, it's concepts except yeah, yeah, it's Casey.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah I thought it was crazy. No, it's Casey. Well,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: maybe they need to go to his house because they
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: ain't the pregame meal and it wasn't it wasn't obviously
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: good enough.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: Well, it hadn't been good enough for Leon, wasn't good
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: enough at Notre Dame. But hey, Bill Russell threw up
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: before every game. If if Le'Veon can can can be
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: half of that, then that's okay. He can throw upside.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at Auburn's schedule and I just that they're
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: gonna beat Mercer. But they made you know, and they
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: play at Arkansas.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: They half Kentucky at home. Kentucky's quit.
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah there, I don't know. I mean that's gonna be
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: a that's gonna be a heck of a game.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Kentucky's kind of giving up. Yeah, and Arkansas and we
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: don't know what Arkansas is gonna be.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: Bobby Patrino that.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but he didn't never, he didn't have any defensive coaches.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: He fired his whole defensive staff. I'm wondering who he's
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: got a motorstackle. They didn't have a defense before they
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: fired those guys. So is he going to coach both?
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I don't you know where are these guys coming from?
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: Grad assistance.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: He's gonna get this motorcycle game back together again, though,
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: I mean.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: They already have tea at least according to sec Short.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: Did you say riding with Bobby? Yeah? I like that.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Here's the deal? Is I love Sam Pittman, who's quotable?
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: You love that? Yes? I will say this. Arkansas will
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: be more competitive under Patrino Frainam's game than if they
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: can't be Lescot. So I think you're worried because he
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: might find three old farts out there retarded, come in
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: and help him coach defense. I mean, you never know.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: He's his brother, He's got a lot of people he knows.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a team that went to Old Miss
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: and lost by just six points.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: They scored a lot, they had a lot of yards
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: and defense and at the time, right at the time,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: they were they were way up in all the offensive
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: categories right.
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: Well, and they came out decently against Notre Dame. I
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: mean they went down there and they scored and after
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: that that was it.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: That was it, Notre Dame of the fake punt by
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: like thirty points. But you're right, they don't have a defense.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: So and you can't win without a defense. And you see,
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: in the long run, you might be able to score
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: one team, but.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: You can't win without a defense. You can't win without
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: a quarterback. We do know that count down the penalties
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: you can't win with well, actually you can win with
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: thirteen penalties.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Ship's coaching show on Mondays. It should it should be
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: so obvious.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: I see all these things I can correct every day
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: from the count every Saturday, from.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: The couch, maybe more team exactly.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: I think my message would be stop getting stupid penalties.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: That would be my message. You think that would go, Yeah,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: that would listen to me. I think he's an old guy.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: So Arkansas fires Pittman. I mean the coaching carousel has started. Uh,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure what's going to happen at Florida Kentucky?
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Is is he's done there?
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: For sure?
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: He's kind of gone, but he's there.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't I don't know if they'll fire in season.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I don't understand. I don't understand the end season firings.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: Frankly, here's the deal is in the only Buchanan when
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: we were talking to him, of course we did the
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: show on Saturday with Louis. Uh, they have fired Napier
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: during the open week if they're going to do it,
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: so they didn't do it. So that kind of tells
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: you they're probably going to keep naper the whole way. Yes,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: because you go ahead and get that done now. Probably
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: in that situation like Arkansas did, they got to know
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: and date. That's when you fire a coach. If you've
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: got troubles and people brought up a good point, you
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: want to start going to get the coach quick as
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: possible because of the nil deals to transfer what have you.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: The game's changed.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: So if I'm a player, I'm pretty upset because they
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: wait five, they wait after four games, after four games,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: and so some of these players, you know, could.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Have a year of eligibility left. If you played five,
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: you're done for Yeah, yeah, you're stuck to them for Yeah,
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: you're stuck.
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: So it's I think Petrino gives them some energy. Though
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: in Arkansas he might.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: He might.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think he's got some weapons to work
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: with on the offensive side of the ball, right this
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: this quarterback is not terrible for sure.
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: No, And I think by Petrino proved he's a heck
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: of a head coach. I mean, obviously he had A
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: and m's number. I mean when he was the head
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: coach of Arkasas he they never lost.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: He's a really good play caller. Yes, I do know,
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: excellent what she's been doing anyway, I'm assuming, right, And
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: like I said, he's got to have older coaches that
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: maybe are retired. He knows he'll bring him back and
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: they'll coach. I mean that's just you. You almost never
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: see that.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: You'll see in a coordinator fired exactly why we've seen
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: it here. Uh, but but you don't see an entire
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: side of the football fire.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's and that guy was a high riser like
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: two three years ago. That's how quickly can change. And
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: obviously Patrina was sitting there in the meetings in his
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: last two years said, if I ever get to be
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: head coach, that guy's gone.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Well apparently, apparently Patrina has been whispering to a lot
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: of people for a while about you know what he's
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: going to do.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So now, now are not the most.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Not the most loved and respected coach in college or
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: pro football.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: And here's the deal. He knows if he wins two
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: or three games rest this year, he's going to get
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: a shot. He's going to get a shot. Yeah. And
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: let's be honest. Arkansas has money. They should be a
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: lot better than what they are in a lot of sports.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: But of course they're put all their money into basketball.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: If you go to Austin and beat Texas, he'll get
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: a five year contract.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: You're right, you're right, All right, We're going to take
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: a break. Robert Sess is here, Rusty Berson is here.

  Speaker 2: The SEC well without a doubt. And I'll give Missippi
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: State credit.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: They're a lobby has apparently done a really good taken.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: They overhauled their roster because all the good players were
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: taken by anybody else like crag came to and m
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: there was you look where and elsewhere. The fact that
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: he has a competitive team with what he's done shows
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: me the value of him as a coach. That's why
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: he was at Oklahoma yep. And I think he's dangerous
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: moving forward what he's done. When he's done a lot
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: with a little Now, I expect A and M to
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: be really ready for this game. After so many mental
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: errors last time. I think when you you're A and M,
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: those players can't be happy with all the mistakes you
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: talk about. How do you get to them. Well, I
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: think they probably know they should have won that game
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: by a lot more.
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think this is gonna be an interesting game
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: because obviously this is really the first road game from
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: Misissippi State. I mean, they went on the road to
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: play Southern miss but I mean that was in the
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: non conference, and so you know, I mean they their
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: biggest win so far is over Arizona State, and they
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: played Tennessee really really good last week, and.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: I should have won, probably should have won.
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: I think that this is gonna be you know, like
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: I said, in the first hour, we're like we thought
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: that Auburn was gonna be the big test. All right
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: now I'm thinking, Okay, Mississippi State is test and you
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: can't afford to slip up on on on this one.
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: You just can't.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: No.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I like all the times I've seen I remember shaping
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: his first four games last year, the guy from Baylor,
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: good delivery, good arm. He was good at Baylor was.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I really like this guy. He's a little more not
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: as mobile as Arnold, but definitely a lot more dangerous
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: with his arm. That being said, I really like two
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: weeks now when you're we're seeing Elcho's exotic blitzes and
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: he were seeing them rush to rush three, rush four,
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: and he's very good in that situation. I think his
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: team is centaining in and I think the defense will
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: continue to play. Well.
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I did too, And I really liked the way
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Tory in York is reading plays and he it reminds
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: me a lot of I'm gonna throw it way back here,
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: because you can tell that he's seen plays before they.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Even take, which is what Alco talked about today.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: Right, And so that was the characteristic that that win
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: wins so instinctive instinctive, Well, but it's more than instinctive.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: It's more it's like studying of it so much. Yes, yeah,
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: and that gets a lot of correct from being instinctive.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: But he knew these teams so you know so well,
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: and and he studied him so well, and so he
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: would make reaction. He would make calls before the quarterback
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: snaps the ball. You know, he he can see alignments
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: and things like that, and that's what I think you're seeing.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: Tory in York gets the next level there.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: You're absolutely correct, Russy, because I always was when we
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: first started out, I go, man, this that win is
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: maybe not that athletic, not that quick. Begetting back to
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: your point, if the whole guy was running between the
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: left guard and left tackle, it seemed like that win
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: was there just as he got there, and nobody was
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: around him, so he didn't have a blocker to hit awhere.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: He knew that running back was going to go in
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: that lane.
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and he and Phil Bennett, you know, they just
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: study film, so I mean that's what they did, you know,
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: and that was such a film junkie. I don't know
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: if that's Toy and York or not, but I did hear.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: It was like I hear you know, you know, Elka
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: was saying about that, and I was like, yeah that, Yeah.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: You're right. But really great linebackers and Elko pointed out,
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: which is a good one. Edrin Cooper had all the
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: physical talents whatever, but he needed to learn how to
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: to you know, academically so to speak, to learn the game.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: And all your great linebackers, particularly when they get to
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: the NFL, you have to do film. The fact that
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: York's so far ahead and understands that, uh, he works
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: in his craft. And we see a lot of these
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: college guys, you wonder how much they really work on
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: their craft because I think early in our broadcast today
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: we went over you think about the quarterbacks arch Manning
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: Qbac from Clemson and Musmaer from l s U. And
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: I don't want to say they don't do a lot
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: of film study, but they are having way lower seasons
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: than we all thought they would have.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: I've got a question, how involved do you think Art
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Briles is.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: With Mississippi State and with his son in law. You know,
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: I never really thought about that till now, Chip, but
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: you bring I.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Told my wife yesterday he's calling plays for him.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: They're having great success.
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: You know that could be he could be because you.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Talk about people that could call a good game, like
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: we just said.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: Uh, I mean, I will I'm gonna put this on
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: tape because it's on tape, but I'll deny I said it.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: But Art Brown's is an offensive jais is he could
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: call play?
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: He just is He's scumbag.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: But yes, it's just like Rusty said once again, is
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: he knew exactly when the defense broke or whatever, he
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: knew they need they got single coverage and no da dah,
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: he was. He just recognized it. He just was because
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: he watched whether they watched some of the film. But
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: it's a god given gift. Well, and his son in.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Law has been Look that doesn't mean he can become him,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: but he's been with him obviously a long time. He
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: knows how he calls the game, he knows how he
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: thinks on offense, and like you said, he's off doing it.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: I don't care who they've beaten so far. They're four
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: and one. This is a program I thought was going
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: to win three games this year, and maybe they still will.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: But I'm just saying what he's done. This program was dead,
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: and I mean dead in the water.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: And he has given reason for hope and that's what
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: makes this team uh.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: And it's good news for Aggie fans. And they didn't
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: win that Tennessee game.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: But he has given these players a little belief and
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: a little hope. And Elko mentioned today, I always notice
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: in film the energy on the sideline.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: I was so interesting.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: And he said, this team is committed is how he
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: put it.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: And you know they have to be to.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Win four games after losing I don't know how many
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: in the last three years.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: You know you're one hundred percent ship When when Elko
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: said that, and I go Sometimes the coaches say the
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: simplest things are so true. When I was watching a
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: little bit on Saturday whenever I could because A know
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: was playing. When you look at the old miss uh
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: Mississippi State, Okay, those players are so cocky. They just
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: reflect Kiffin and they're all excited. Yes, we're gonna kick
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: your butt, you know, yeah, And then you saw l
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: s U. It's like, crap, we're gonna lose.
• 35:34
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, That's why I felt watching TV. Yes, and I
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: think Elko is so right. You look at the and
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: the body language on the sideline in Auburn. It was
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: like some guys were saying like, hey, we're okay, but
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: they were saying that, but their body was saying, oh man,
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: we stink yeah, and a good point at the defense,
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: like what else do we have to do? Right? And
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: they scored six, they all they could. And I looked
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: at those guys going up and talking to to Arnold.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: I feel bad for Arnold or whatever you talk about
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: going from one bad situation to another. He is one
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: good game against Baylor, and man, people want him to go.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: Now, well, he had one good game and it was
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: running running. No, I mean it was almost all running.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: And yeah, I mean this is not this is not Baylor.
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: And it's like, you know, So back to the Mississippi
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: State I said, you know, yeah, they've got some hope
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: and that you know, Arizona State win looks pretty good.
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: I mean Arizona State is yes, yeah, and so we'll see.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: And they should have been Tennessee. I kept saying. People
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: ask me how I miss it. I said, okay, we'll
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: see what Tennessee. I said, they'll get their clock clean
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: by yeah. To see, I said, Hypel loves to run
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: up the score. He screwed up against George.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, there was one. And I wish I
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: had written this down. I said, they'll bet Missippi State
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: by twenty.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Made another horrible mistake in the fourth quarter.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: On Man, I've watched so much football I don't remember,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: and I'm just looking at it and staring and thinking
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: to myself, what are you doing again? I mean this,
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: and so I'm Hypel can coach offensive football. There is
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: no question about that. Right, he can score points, But
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking as a game manager. The more I see
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: of him, I'm going, Man, if you don't, if you
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: don't score forty, which they did the other you know,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: they had to score a lot of points to meet
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: Mississippi State, you're screwed because if you get in this
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: close game again. And I wish I could remember this scenario,
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: but I'm just staring. I'm going, what are you doing?
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: There was a minute sixteen less. Okay, they got the
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: ball was tied.
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: They used one time out and ran out of time
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: at the fifty yard line.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, there you go. They ran twin thank you.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: You're going they're gonna he's going for overtime. I'm going,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: you're you're on the road. You've got your bucks butt kicked.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: He had twenty five seconds where the quarterback is like
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: letting the clock run right. No, No, I'm serious with
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: timeouts left now and they started in their own territory
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: about to twenty five. Okay, but they ran a play
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: and got ten or twelve yards. I'm going, here they
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: go because they're waiting to do that, and they're gonna
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: see Hey, should should I because I don't want to
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: make a mistake, you know, five yard line in the
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: last minute. But then the guy gets up on the
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: ball and the clock's just ticking and ticking, and Hypel's
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: looking at I'm going, what is going on?
• 38:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not a good game manager, there's no doubt.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Well, we keep talking about it, coaches, and we could
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: laugh because it doesn't mean anything. Us work and there's
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: no pressure for us right now. They're on the sideline
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: but we're barely making five figures seven. He set there
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: and laugh and go why do they do these things?
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: But you can see you freeze things just he's getting tighter,
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: tighter grip. We're seeing with with Napier, with with yeah,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: Sam Pittman and these guys, and in high Point, you know,
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Hype got a lot of grief about losing that Georgia
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: game because you got to win that game and and
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: you had it one yes, and you try to rely
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: and you screwed and you screwed it up. But we
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: can laugh. But these guys, it's tough. It's tough.
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: There's no great team right now. I mean, there's no
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: r in the sec uh. I watched that Alabama Georgia
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: game and there's there's no great team.
• 39:24

  Speaker 1: rout to you my first financial bank and intact Rusty
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: Gerson Robert Cessna with US.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Alabama Georgia on Saturday.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: The white Whale for Kirby Smart is the Crimson Tide.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: He's one and seven against them.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: He's one oh seven and thirteen against the rest of
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: college football, and he's one and seven against Alabama.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I have a theory I want you guys
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: to react to this.
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: Okay, My theory.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: Is this, Alabama is one of the very few teams
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: that are big enough and physical enough to stand toe
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: to toe with them. In the trenches on both sides
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: of the ball. Those two teams beat the crap out
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: of each other Saturday night. It was brutal, and I
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: think that that's and then Alabama of course also has
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: skill people and they had the best quarterback, which they
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: still have.
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: They still have skill people and the best play caller.
• 42:07
  Speaker 12: Uh.
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: But I just think a lot of it is that big, physical,
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: just mental that they bring to that game. And as
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: you mentioned, Cees, they absolutely had the best quarterback in
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: that game.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: I'm with you, and that's why I like A and
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: M moving forward after the Auburn game, because they dominated
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: both lines of scrimmage and I didn't think that was possible.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: Fradom's defensive line going in, I thought that was a
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: huge beginning back what you said, if you want to
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: win big time football, and I get it. I like
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: the beer as a war yeah him too as a
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: play called an offensive guy, but you gotta have a
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: lineman in the SEC and you want to win a
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: big game, you gotta have the big guys because on
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: both sides, what do I say, Going in Texas, Ohio
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: State was gonna be like thirty twenty four and now
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: it was like fourteen to seven, you know, because you
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: got to have defense, you got a lineman and so
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: you're right. And Alabama people probably feeling pretty good today.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: Well I think they should they should be. I like
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: this team. That's why I picked them when the season started.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: I liked Boor. You talked about James Franklin not being
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: a big game coach season. His record back set up
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: Callen de Boor is now seven and one against top
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: ten teams.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: He hadn't had nearly as many opportunities over the years.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: I'll take sid he won seven and one against top
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: ten teams. To me, that means he's now.
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: He's lost to Vanderbilt, he lost to the directional school
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: app State, I think it was I get that.
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: But he's seven and one in these big games and that.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: Probably gonna serve him well down the stretch because the
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: more they win, the more big games he's gonna play.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: And he's got one this week. And you know, Vanderbilt
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: beat him last year.
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: And Vanderbilt has played really good football right now with
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: a quarterback that's really good.
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they better be on the lookout for Okaden Proctor.
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: That often blindman out there.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: Was that a player?
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the player of the day. I really
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: enjoyed that that was the player of the day. Toys
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: Simpson looked really good.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: Oh he did.
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: And I really hadn't given him any thought at all,
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: but he called it last week. He really I thought he.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Was pretty good because I've watched him and he can
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: spend it, and he's and you know what, he's older.
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: He's bited his time. He was recruited by Nick Saban,
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: so I know he can play quarterback, or Nick Saban
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have given him a scholarship. And he's waited for
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: his time, and his time is now. And I'm telling you,
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: Alabama is going to be a problem going forward. I
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: think to all of these teams.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: And one thing I was telling my wife at lunch,
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: I always remember Kirby Smart at the SEC met he said, hey, gang,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: I've got sixty five first or second year players. This
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: is the youngest team. Yes he did experienced since I've
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: been here. Yes he did, and once again, experience at
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: a quarterback. That's just okay, just okay, that's just okay.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: And getting back to what Rusty said, I agree with him.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: It's on every given sent there's not a number one
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: team out there right now. But who shows up for
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: the big games? Oregon showed up for the big game.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: Alabama showed up for the big game. A and M
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: showed up for the big game. Of Notre Dame.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Ohio State went to Washington. Had problems, but one you
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: think of Notre Dame. Yeah they pulled late, but yeah, man,
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: but defensively they're as good as we thought.
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah they are.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: Oregon is good. If Notre Dame would have beat A
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: and M, they might be number.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: I steal your coach, and I like their coach. Don't
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: get me wrong. He you talked about the cockiness of
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin. This guy's over the top, right he he
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: just walks with a swagger. He talks with the swagger.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: He walks into the stadium and we're gonna kick your butt.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: There's nothing you can do about it. Well, the team
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: feeds off that, right, they go into that environment.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: And I was with UCS.
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: I originally pickpin Steak because I know, man, going on
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: the road, I don't care.
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: But in that environment at night.
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: That is going to be really tough. But guess what
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: Dan Lining's like, Hey, we don't care. We were listening
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: to you. We're gonna win this game. But he will
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: not kick a field goal. He's kind of like Sark.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: He won't kick a field goal. That's gotten him beat
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: before in big games. You know, it got him beat?
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: Was it what the Washington game they lost? You know
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: when Bennix went to the playoffs? Yep, he's got to learn.
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: And I realized the players are like, now we're going
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: for it. It's fourth down. We don't care how long
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: we're gonna go. Well, that's great, but if you don't
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: make it, you should have kicked the field goal in
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: a game like that.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: Very few coaches can win a big game with their
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: backup quarterback. But he learned at the foot of Nick
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: Saban when he did that in the National Championship point
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: and that just added to Lane Kiffin's cockiness. And I watched,
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: you know, late at night, Sarah, I'm trying to do
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: my vote. I listened to his postgame and he says
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: all the right things. He goes, oh, I gotta go
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: find will you gotta find his daughter's boyfriend from LSU.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's got every he's got every.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: Have you seen by the way that he's sixty on him,
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: sixty on him?
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you can fight it, I recommend you watch it.
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: I think it's really good.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: Uh And I've said before, I know people around here
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: don't like Lane Kiffin.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: I get that, but I good for the game. But
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: I love lang Kiffin because I'm in the media business.
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: I don't have a team. I don't care. I just
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: like watching him. I like watching him coach. I like
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: the way his team play seas.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: Now here's another coach that if you're gonna if you're
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: gonna start criticizing. He's lost a lot of those kind
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: of games that he won on Saturday, Right, He's lost
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: more of those than he's won since he's been at
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: Old Miss. I guess my only comeback with, well, he's
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: at Old Miss. I know they've got good players now,
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: and he's built that program to have good players. I
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: get that, But he's gonna have to win some more.
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: The in fact, he goes to UH Georgia in three weeks.
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they lost last year to was or someone should
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: have made the College Football Playoff Kentucky and Florida. He
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: should have been. I thought this was a huge year
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: for him. And once again, I'll tell you a coach
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: that some of the national media hop on like is
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Elko because he's always pretty honest, pretty open, and he's
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: a different style coach. Yes, graduated from Penn. That's not
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: Penn High School, that's Penn University. And I've read a
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: lot of national and you gotta have national people on
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: your side. I mean, just the way it goes. Uh.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: You know, Rcie always used to talk about too many
• 48:30
  Speaker 2: of the media graduated from Texas back and he's right.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: It was right, he was right. And once again, is
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: you got a people in your corner. The more you
• 48:37
  Speaker 2: have in your corner, it's amazing how that works.
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: Well, I just look at the you know, the the rankings,
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: you know in the Ohio State. Yeah, they're they're they're
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: really good defensively, but they're not They're not that good offensively.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: They're not great.
• 48:48
  Speaker 4: Oregon is pretty pretty darn good both sides. But Miami,
• 48:51
  Speaker 4: are they really the third best team in the country.
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: I don't trust the coach. I don't like this.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: I do not trust the coach. And I'll know a
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: little more this week. Uh, that's a good game, this Miami,
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: Florida Florida State. That's right game where they've already knocked
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: off Alabama.
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: One in Florida State had lost that luster by losing
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: the Virginia.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: They didn't get it back by beating Miami. They can,
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: they can, and that's a rivalry game. I think it's
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: a good game Saturday night. It's a night game too,
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: by the way.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: Uh and so we'll know more about both those teams.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: I just he's got a Mario Christ Paul has to
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: prove it too.
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: It is wide open for A to make the playoffs
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: wide open for them. And I mean you're looking at
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: A and m sitting there at number six right now already,
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: and if they just take care of business there, they're
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: gonna be top five here. If they just win the
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: next two games at home at Almo.
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: They're a ten wins win team right now. If they
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: get eleven.
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, or twelve and their playoff team right now, I mean.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: They have all the ingredients I feel, with the D
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: line coming on with with you go ahead and getting
• 50:00
  Speaker 2: the defensive second balance in the offense. Balance in the
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: offense they get, they can get big plays in the
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: passing game and the running game.
• 50:08
  Speaker 4: Well, it's it's all right there, it's all right for
• 50:11
  Speaker 4: the taking. Now. You you still got to prove you
• 50:13
  Speaker 4: can go on the road and beat LSU and beat
• 50:15
  Speaker 4: Texas and you better be Florida first. Better Mississippi State.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: Now, you better be Mississippi States State first. Then you
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: better beat Florida.
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: Right. And like I said, Missouri is a tough road game.
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: That's one that Missouri's tough, really gets you. But it's
• 50:31
  Speaker 4: sitting right there for you.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: Oh it is. It is.
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: And the schedule is not nearly as daunting as I
• 50:37
  Speaker 4: thought it would.
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: Be, not right now, not as you're looking at it.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: One wine to day, that one win, one by whatever,
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: the mercher maker or whatever. It was pretty important.
• 50:46
  Speaker 4: One point makes a big difference, isn't there?
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh about playoff playoffs. And and as as
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: I said last Monday, these conference games just they're a
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: whole different animal when.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: You get in a constute, when you're a conference.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: It's just a whole different animal. And I said before
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: the Auburn game, you look at this game, A and
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: M should win by two to three touchdowns. And I said,
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: if they don't do something stupid and make mistakes. So
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: as we talk about the first of the you know,
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: they made a couple of big mistakes. It was a
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: fourteen point swing. It would have been more fitting of
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: the game itself if it was twenty three to three,
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: and you know, not sixteen to ten. But it doesn't matter,
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: Mississippi State. You're sitting here right now. It's a fourteen
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. I don't bet. I might
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: take the points in that game, but if you win
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: by one, that doesn't matter. You just you win. It's
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: a tournament, right, We're in the tournament.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: I do bet, and I'm not picking A and M again,
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: they they are not.
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: We are in the tournament now. All these teams are
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: in the tournament now, right.
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I picked that M. I picked that at M
• 52:09
  Speaker 4: to cover and six and a half of the line.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: So they haven't covered. They covered once.
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: No, no, it's no today. And that's it.
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: And when getting back what you said, Chip, all you
• 52:20
  Speaker 2: have to do is win. And they're good enough to
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: overcome mistakes. That's the mark of a good team too.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: You know Saban made mistakes, but his team were so
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: good you didn't notice them as much.
• 52:29
  Speaker 4: Here's here's the reality is that you know when A
• 52:32
  Speaker 4: has been good that that twenty twenty season, it wasn't
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: the thing of beauty. They won a bunch of games
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: there that you know, hard fuck games, right, but they
• 52:41
  Speaker 4: still they you know, they're right there on the edge,
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: you know, all the way back to nineteen ninety eight.
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, there was a bunch of ugly wins that year,
• 52:47
  Speaker 4: but they won the Big twelve title and they knocked
• 52:49
  Speaker 4: off Kannas State, and that's what you remember. But you
• 52:52
  Speaker 4: don't remember a lot of these ugly wins. And as
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: long as they in them just keeps winning, it doesn't
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: really matter.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Zero yee exactly. That's zero here on the right side
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: of the ledger. And as long as you have that,
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: the style points don't don't your name's up on I'm
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: looking up at ESPN. Your name's up there all the time.
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, zero, yeah, right, yeah, the style points just that
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: don't matter at this point because you have to win
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: at Notre Dame. You've got plenty of other chances down
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: the line to make even get even more people impressed, right, Yeah, you.
• 53:24
  Speaker 4: Just take care of business the next two weeks and
• 53:26
  Speaker 4: you're you're golden right now.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: In the tough five I think, okay, we'll pay off
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: a little bit, you know, we might. We'll see, well,
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, so far Seas. I'm with you.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: Uh, he has, he has gotten the defense back to
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: what he vowed he would after.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: The USC game.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: In the bowl game, that was unacceptable. Uh, it's good
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: to have the DB's healthy.
• 53:50
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: He was talking about des Rix today. He was talking
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: about Tyreek Chappelle who's been injured and is just now
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: beginning to feel good with the knee.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: Uh. That's another big deal, right, and one without Scooby Williams.
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: Once again, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta overcome your mistakes.
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: You've got to overcome your injuries, because you know, if
• 54:08
  Speaker 2: you're gonna play twelve, thirteen, fourteen games, you're gonna have
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: you're gonna have hiccups. Like Rusty said, you just gotta
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: get get through them.
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: Anything else on the schedule this week, guys, we talked
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: a little bit about Miami and Florida State.
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: I like that one. Uh how about Texas going to Florida?
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because I haven't seen the What's what's the line
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: on that game?
• 54:30
  Speaker 12: Do you know?
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: See?
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: I thought it was like a mutched. I think it
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: was a touchdown. I'm looking for seeing what happened. I
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: want to see what happens. Dela I want to see
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: what happens LSU, because I think LSU their bubbles could burst,
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: you know burst. Last last year it did and coming
• 54:45
  Speaker 2: had a heisman, couldn't do anything. Then last year they
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: didn't do that. Well. Their quarterback's not playing like Maser
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: supposed to be the guy. I think there's some pressure
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: on mister Kelly. Uh.
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: Fortunately for them, they have an open date this week
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: and then they host South Carolina.
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: He called out the reporter the week before it would
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: criticize him for only being able to score thirteen offensive points.
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: I guess the reporter knew what he was asking about
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: because they could have used those thirteen points. As you mentioned,
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: they haven't. They haven't been that great, you know, offensively
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: for sure. I thought they talk about a place where
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: Adam's as tough winning.
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: Did you hear the Johnny Manziel's gonna be on the
• 55:18
  Speaker 4: sideline for the Vanderbilt Alabama game because because he's recording the.
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it's a hero. That's awesome.
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah. So I thought that was interesting.
