Transcript
- 0:02SPEAKER_01: Welcome to Between Two Generations, a father-son sports podcast, because raising a son is tough.
- 0:07SPEAKER_01: But debating sports with me, now that's even tougher.
- 0:20SPEAKER_01: All right, welcome back to Between Two Generations.
- 0:24SPEAKER_01: Y'all, I am with the star of the show, my son, Briggs.
- 0:27SPEAKER_01: Wright.
- 0:27SPEAKER_01: Briggs, say what's up?
- 0:28SPEAKER_01: Yo, what's up, yeah, everybody?
- 0:30SPEAKER_01: Y'all, we are excited to be kicking this off again.
- 0:33SPEAKER_01: Listen, Texas Longhorns, they're number one, baby.
- 0:36SPEAKER_01: BYU is in the top 10.
- 0:38SPEAKER_01: And Briggs' Bangles, what's going on with the Bangles this year so far, buddy?
- 0:42SPEAKER_01: Uh, we're running the Super Bowl this year.
- 0:43SPEAKER_01: Oh, he's winning the Super Bowl.
- 0:45SPEAKER_01: They are 2-0.
- 0:46SPEAKER_01: Football season is here.
- 0:48SPEAKER_01: This episode is gonna be fire.
- 0:50SPEAKER_01: Let's get into it, y'all.
- 0:52SPEAKER_01: All right, buddy.
- 0:54SPEAKER_01: Listen, uh, we're gonna start off first talking about the BYU Cougars, baby.
- 0:57SPEAKER_01: They're in the top ten.
- 0:58SPEAKER_01: Briggs, tell us about it.
- 0:59SPEAKER_01: What's going on with the Cougars this year?
- 1:01SPEAKER_02: Well, we have our turning starting quarterback, Bear Bachmeyer, who I believe is gonna be really, really good.
- 1:06SPEAKER_02: And he's a sophomore year, and he's very poised, he's very mature, and you know, he's excellent.
- 1:10SPEAKER_02: And there's a bear loose in Provo, baby.
- 1:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and we love that guy.
- 1:14SPEAKER_02: And then we have, in my opinion, one of the top running backs in the country, if not the best, and LJ Martin.
- 1:19SPEAKER_02: And against Colorado State, he just ran for I think 176 yards and three touchdowns and just dominated.
- 1:25SPEAKER_01: How many yards did he hit against Colorado State?
- 1:27SPEAKER_01: It was like 176.
- 1:28SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:29SPEAKER_01: Holly.
- 1:29SPEAKER_01: How many carries?
- 1:30SPEAKER_01: I he didn't even run the ball that much.
- 1:32SPEAKER_01: I think it was on 15 carries.
- 1:33SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I was probably on like 15, 16 carries.
- 1:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 1:36SPEAKER_02: But yeah, then, you know, obviously my Bengals, I've been this honestly, this whole offseason, I've been like getting ready for just that just an absolute another disastrous season, like every the past like three, four years.
- 1:48SPEAKER_02: But I mean, I'm so confident this year, like I'm actually like top, no, they're my top five of my races.
- 1:54SPEAKER_01: I've never seen Briggs so stressed during any football game.
- 1:56SPEAKER_01: Like, Briggs, tell me if this is right.
- 1:58SPEAKER_01: You both are elated and having so much fun watching the Bengals, but it's probably the most stressful thing.
- 2:02SPEAKER_01: Every time, every time Joe Burrow gets tackled, Briggs is freaking out.
- 2:06SPEAKER_02: No, whenever the the pocket collapses and he's like running out, I'm like, dude, just slide.
- 2:09SPEAKER_02: I don't care.
- 2:10SPEAKER_02: Don't worry about it.
- 2:10SPEAKER_01: Don't care for those like three to four yards like slide.
- 2:14SPEAKER_01: Oh man.
- 2:14SPEAKER_01: You remember that you remember that first game?
- 2:17SPEAKER_01: And he took off for the first down?
- 2:18SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:19SPEAKER_01: And he went for it.
- 2:20SPEAKER_02: And me and he both looked at each other and like I just knew that something bad was gonna happen, but and then of course there was back tightness on frickin' Wednesday.
- 2:27SPEAKER_02: I was like, bro, I know.
- 2:28SPEAKER_01: It's like if he sits out, oh, it's gonna be bad.
- 2:30SPEAKER_01: Great.
- 2:31SPEAKER_01: When we go talk about our Bengals, we're gonna hit their defense, man.
- 2:33SPEAKER_01: But then just give me the highlights with Texas too, bro.
- 2:35SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
- 2:36SPEAKER_02: I mean, I I've never been more stressed in game than the Texas Ohio State game.
- 2:40SPEAKER_02: That was insane.
- 2:42SPEAKER_02: That was and then Archmanning, and then against UTSA, I'm like, bro, like, stop, you gotta stop.
- 2:49SPEAKER_00: What happened?
- 2:50SPEAKER_02: Those simple, those simple layups, bro.
- 2:52SPEAKER_02: I know it.
- 2:52SPEAKER_02: I know it.
- 2:52SPEAKER_01: All right, well.
- 2:53SPEAKER_02: I just gotta see consistency from over there.
- 2:55SPEAKER_01: You gotta see consistency.
- 2:56SPEAKER_01: Okay, well, here we go.
- 2:56SPEAKER_01: Here's here's uh here's the order of the show today.
- 2:59SPEAKER_01: We're gonna do a little bit of a deep dive on BYU, then we're gonna dive into Texas, and then we're gonna do a deep dive into the bangles.
- 3:06SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 3:06SPEAKER_01: All right, don't y'all worry, me and Briggs are also gonna be hitting you with our classic little mini fun game segment.
- 3:12SPEAKER_01: I know y'all will be loving that, so we're gonna hit y'all with one of those too.
- 3:14SPEAKER_01: So here we go.
- 3:22SPEAKER_01: Okay, so BYU, buddy.
- 3:24SPEAKER_01: So here's some key numbers, and then we're gonna talk about it a little bit.
- 3:26SPEAKER_01: So the ranking right now, they're numbered nine in the AP poll, which I love this, right?
- 3:29SPEAKER_01: Because when they started out the season, they got a little bit of love, not as much as they should have, but they get started out with 14.
- 3:34SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:35SPEAKER_01: And then we laid a whooping on Utah Tech and somehow got punished for it.
- 3:38SPEAKER_01: They move us back to 15.
- 3:39SPEAKER_01: BYU, I'm saying we still don't get the respect.
- 3:42SPEAKER_01: However, we laid that whooping on Arizona.
- 3:44SPEAKER_01: I wouldn't say it was a whooping, but we controlled the game the whole time.
- 3:47SPEAKER_02: Okay, that's there's no stress in the game at all.
- 3:49SPEAKER_01: But here's here's what I love about about Kalani Sataki too.
- 3:52SPEAKER_01: Because you got all this pressure about we need style points.
- 3:54SPEAKER_01: I actually think style points and not having enough of them is what hurt us last year, right?
- 3:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 3:59SPEAKER_01: But last year was different though, because we took Arizona.
- 4:02SPEAKER_01: Remember that last year that was double overtime.
- 4:04SPEAKER_01: Well, that was double overtime, like and we had enough wins against the Big 12 teams, but we didn't w we didn't dominate.
- 4:10SPEAKER_01: We just ended up That wasn't a problem.
- 4:12SPEAKER_02: The problem was we didn't we didn't win the most important games, which is Texas Tech.
- 4:16SPEAKER_01: But even y that's true.
- 4:17SPEAKER_01: If had had we won Texas Tech, we'd have been we would have been in for sure.
- 4:21SPEAKER_01: Winning one of the one of the Texas Tech games would have meant we were in the playoffs.
- 4:24SPEAKER_01: But even still other people got put into the playoffs with a with a uh a worse win-loss record than us because the the uh the quality of wins that they had.
- 4:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 4:32SPEAKER_01: Because the BYU wins last year, sure, we beat nearly everybody except Texas Tech, but a lot of teams we only beat by like 5.7 points.
- 4:40SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 4:41SPEAKER_01: So that's why I was happy to see Arizona.
- 4:43SPEAKER_01: We whooped them, right?
- 4:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like because it was the the final score is what, 28-17?
- 4:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 4:48SPEAKER_01: Could have been 35, 42 to 17, but that's not Kalani's style.
- 4:52SPEAKER_01: He's not gonna run up the score, which I respect that.
- 4:54SPEAKER_01: But we're gonna keep a close eye on how they get punished for not having style points because Kalani is not gonna run up the score when he's gonna be able to do that.
- 5:01SPEAKER_02: Well, no, we didn't get punished at all, like the past two weeks.
- 5:03SPEAKER_02: We're up at nine now.
- 5:05SPEAKER_01: They got us nine now.
- 5:06SPEAKER_01: Colorado State.
- 5:07SPEAKER_01: Of course it's Colorado State, but even still, we uh they just they just look like a JV team compared to our guys.
- 5:12SPEAKER_01: Well, LJ just looked like Tank compared to all their like little twigs.
- 5:17SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 5:17SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 5:18SPEAKER_01: Did you know that at this point in the season, uh being ranked number nine, that's the Cougars' earliest top ten spots since 2009.
- 5:26SPEAKER_01: You see that?
- 5:26SPEAKER_02: I don't know that.
- 5:27SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 5:28SPEAKER_01: I didn't realize that.
- 5:28SPEAKER_01: I'm just seeing that staff pop up here for us.
- 5:31SPEAKER_02: Wait, 2009.
- 5:32SPEAKER_02: What was 2009?
- 5:33SPEAKER_01: The Hague.
- 5:34SPEAKER_01: I know, right?
- 5:34SPEAKER_01: I think that was uh was Max Hall?
- 5:37SPEAKER_01: I think that was the early years of Max Hall being our starting QB.
- 5:39SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 5:40SPEAKER_01: John Beck had already gone off and playing in the NFL, I think, by then.
- 5:43SPEAKER_01: And yeah, but so here we go.
- 5:46SPEAKER_01: So we're 3-0, we got wins 63-7 over Utah Tech, 28-17 over Arizona, 41-23 at Colorado State.
- 5:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 5:54SPEAKER_01: That's pretty good.
- 5:55SPEAKER_01: So we're that's uh that's a total of 132 points, and we've only allowed 47.
- 5:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah, plus 85 point difference point differential.
- 6:01SPEAKER_01: I love that.
- 6:02SPEAKER_01: I love that.
- 6:02SPEAKER_01: Okay, let me ask you this about um LJ Martin.
- 6:05SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 6:05SPEAKER_01: So everything that we've been reading about how they rank him nationally against the other top running backs, I'm seeing him consistently in the top five.
- 6:13SPEAKER_01: But here's what I'm thinking.
- 6:15SPEAKER_01: Here's my hot take.
- 6:16SPEAKER_01: I actually think if he keeps doing what he's doing, I would not be surprised if he's the number one running back taken in the NFL draft.
- 6:23SPEAKER_01: I would not be surprised either.
- 6:24SPEAKER_01: I mean, I almost think he should be.
- 6:26SPEAKER_01: He should be, yeah, 100%.
- 6:27SPEAKER_01: I mean because Kewen Lacey, uh Ole Miss.
- 6:31SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 6:31SPEAKER_01: Uh there's Hollywood Smothers with Texas.
- 6:33SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 6:34SPEAKER_01: And uh, oh, who's the other one I'm leaving out?
- 6:36SPEAKER_01: I know I'm leaving out the other guy.
- 6:37SPEAKER_01: There's one other that's that's kinda I'll I'll come back to that, but yeah.
- 6:40SPEAKER_01: Even still, uh the only one that cares that matters to us is LJ Martin.
- 6:44SPEAKER_01: LJ Martin.
- 6:44SPEAKER_01: Well, and Hollywood Smithers because of our Texas but that's right.
- 6:47SPEAKER_01: I do love I do love some Hollywood.
- 6:48SPEAKER_02: Well, LJ Martin I think is way better than Hollywood Smithers, yeah.
- 6:51SPEAKER_02: But LJ Martin's a beast, I mean he's a thick.
- 6:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah, total beast, total beast.
- 6:56SPEAKER_02: Thick and a thick baby face too.
- 6:58SPEAKER_02: Isn't that the funniest thing?
- 6:59SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he has the funniest baby face ever.
- 7:01SPEAKER_01: I bet you I bet you defenses that have to try to tackle him are like, this is a man.
- 7:05SPEAKER_01: And then if they ever see him at the end of the game with his helmet off, they're like, dude, you're like 14 years old.
- 7:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:10SPEAKER_01: It's crazy.
- 7:12SPEAKER_01: Alright, what what's uh what is your prediction for BYU's win-loss record this year?
- 7:18SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna go.
- 7:20SPEAKER_02: I really want to go 13 and 0, but that's not gonna happen.
- 7:23SPEAKER_02: Um The Big 12 is.
- 7:24SPEAKER_02: I feel like it's safe to say 10 and 2, but I'm gonna say 11 and 1.
- 7:28SPEAKER_01: Let's go through each, let's go through the rest of their schedule and then let's just quickly pick win or loss, right?
- 7:32SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: Okay, so next the next game is at TCU.
- 7:35SPEAKER_01: W I got a W.
- 7:37SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:37SPEAKER_01: Next one we're uh we got a home game against Iowa State.
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: That'll be a tough one, but I'm saying W.
- 7:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:43SPEAKER_01: Notre Dame, October 17th.
- 7:45SPEAKER_01: That's our big key victory.
- 7:47SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, that's that's an L.
- 7:49SPEAKER_02: You going L?
- 7:50SPEAKER_02: Well, yeah, we thought they got CJ Carr, one of the best, and then we got one of the best defenses in the country, one of the top cornerbacks in the country now.
- 7:57SPEAKER_02: Uh I think we're losing for sure.
- 7:58SPEAKER_01: Marcus Freeman is considered possibly the top college quarterback or uh quarterback coach these days, right?
- 8:05SPEAKER_01: Now that Nick Saban's gone.
- 8:06SPEAKER_02: To me, this is Nordane's best team that they've ever uh ever, but this is one of the best teams that they've had in the con in the modern era.
- 8:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and they're gonna be fairly untested until they come to BYU.
- 8:16SPEAKER_01: So I think that might work in our favor.
- 8:18SPEAKER_01: And and it's at home too, so that's it's at home for us.
- 8:21SPEAKER_01: We our crowd is is top.
- 8:23SPEAKER_01: Bro, our college our college section is gonna go freaking over.
- 8:28SPEAKER_01: Okay, I'm calling it, buddy.
- 8:29SPEAKER_01: You ready for this?
- 8:30SPEAKER_01: What?
- 8:31SPEAKER_01: I'm calling major upset.
- 8:32SPEAKER_01: BYU's winning that game.
- 8:33SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 8:33SPEAKER_01: Mark my words.
- 8:34SPEAKER_01: We're gonna come back to this podcast when uh when BYU wins, but y'all are all hearing it first.
- 8:40SPEAKER_01: We're calling it W first.
- 8:42SPEAKER_02: The spread isn't is the spread is Notre Dame minus 10 and 54 and a half.
- 8:46SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
- 8:47SPEAKER_02: So everybody's everybody's all the betters are picking BY are are picking Notre Dame to kind of destroy us.
- 8:53SPEAKER_02: So win by at least 10?
- 8:54SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 8:54SPEAKER_02: In a Utah game, it's Utah and minus three.
- 8:57SPEAKER_02: So I mean That's only because it's at Utah.
- 8:59SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah, but that's gonna be a tough game.
- 9:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 9:02SPEAKER_01: That's gonna be that is gonna be a tough game.
- 9:03SPEAKER_02: So I don't feel like we're ranking number nine, but to me, we're not getting as much respect as we do deserve.
- 9:08SPEAKER_02: Because I think of style points for sure.
- 9:11SPEAKER_01: I mean, we have only played Colorado State, Arizona, and TCU to this point, but let's keep going.
- 9:15SPEAKER_01: So after Notre Dame, we've got UCF.
- 9:17SPEAKER_01: That's a W.
- 9:18SPEAKER_01: Got a W there.
- 9:18SPEAKER_01: Arizona State's next W.
- 9:21SPEAKER_01: Utah at Utah this year.
- 9:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Holy War.
- 9:23SPEAKER_01: That's the other one that that a little is like iffy.
- 9:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I don't know.
- 9:27SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 9:28SPEAKER_02: Utah lost a lot of guys and they're and their coach to Michigan, but Michigan sticks right now, so I don't know how what to think about that.
- 9:35SPEAKER_01: See, here's the thing.
- 9:36SPEAKER_01: Utah right now, what are they ranked?
- 9:38SPEAKER_01: Like 16th, and they're 3-0.
- 9:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 9:40SPEAKER_01: They've played cupcakes, but they're not getting the same love as we are because I think they know on paper BYU at our best still beats Utah at their best.
- 9:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I think no, I think we do pick up I I think we win there, and then that's like our biggest win.
- 9:52SPEAKER_01: I got a W too.
- 9:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 9:53SPEAKER_01: I got a W there too.
- 9:54SPEAKER_01: I'm I'm still undefeated on my bracket because you your only loss is Notre Dame.
- 9:57SPEAKER_01: So then we got uh Baylor at home, W.
- 10:01SPEAKER_01: And then Kansas, W W.
- 10:03SPEAKER_01: Cincinnati at home beat W.
- 10:05SPEAKER_01: At home W.
- 10:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 10:06SPEAKER_01: So, buddy, I I'm calling I'm calling us going undefeated.
- 10:09SPEAKER_01: Undefeated?
- 10:10SPEAKER_01: I'm calling it, man.
- 10:11SPEAKER_01: We definitely have one.
- 10:12SPEAKER_01: I I definit we definitely have one loss.
- 10:14SPEAKER_01: I think the chance of us going undefeated are very, very small.
- 10:17SPEAKER_01: Very small.
- 10:18SPEAKER_01: But I'm feeling it.
- 10:18SPEAKER_01: I'm I'm gonna be honest.
- 10:19SPEAKER_01: I'm feeling it right now.
- 10:20SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 10:21SPEAKER_01: Big 12 though is tough this year.
- 10:22SPEAKER_02: So so no the Big 12's never mind.
- 10:25SPEAKER_02: I'm not gonna be beating the Big 12, my bad.
- 10:26SPEAKER_01: Well, I mean, we've got how many how many are uh ranked in the top 25 as of right now?
- 10:30SPEAKER_01: Three or let me see.
- 10:32SPEAKER_01: Four.
- 10:33SPEAKER_01: There's four, right?
- 10:34SPEAKER_01: So we got BYU's number nine, Texas Tech 11th, Utah 15, and Houston 25.
- 10:40SPEAKER_02: Houston 25.
- 10:40SPEAKER_02: I don't know how I feel about that Houston squad yet, but there we go.
- 10:44SPEAKER_02: All right.
- 10:44SPEAKER_02: And no everybody else, we can just forget about everybody else kind of just the bonds.
- 10:48SPEAKER_02: Like twelve is not the strongest of conferences.
- 10:50SPEAKER_02: I think that they're not.
- 10:52SPEAKER_01: Final final thought.
- 10:54SPEAKER_01: I want to know your thoughts on Bear Bachmeyer and how you think he's gonna perform this year.
- 10:57SPEAKER_02: Oh, Bear Bachmeyer, I think, is gonna keep growing and growing, and then he's gonna get really good by the end of the season.
- 11:02SPEAKER_02: I think he's gonna struggle a lot versus Notre Dame with that defense and especially all the pressure that's gonna be on him.
- 11:07SPEAKER_02: Because their specialty on their D is their is their safeties and cornerbacks, right?
- 11:10SPEAKER_02: Like the passing game.
- 11:11SPEAKER_02: So yeah, and that game plan it's definitely gonna be more of a run of a run game and definitely more of like a spread and kind of yeah, it's spread and yeah, just run.
- 11:21SPEAKER_02: Kind of like yeah.
- 11:22SPEAKER_02: There won't be any deep shots, it'll just be all kind of short cross routes and slants and all that kind of thing.
- 11:28SPEAKER_01: You know what's great is this was kind of the same thing about how BYU's offense has been set up, and I think it's smart because you got you got a horse in LJ Martin, but against Colorado State, they put up all those points, they they they essentially rested all their starters again, right?
- 11:40SPEAKER_01: Like Bear State in, but even still, he only had 17 uh pass attempts.
- 11:44SPEAKER_01: He completed 13 of them.
- 11:47SPEAKER_01: And it was like 200, and it was like 230.
- 11:49SPEAKER_01: Oh, he was amazing, right?
- 11:50SPEAKER_01: But and they rushed for 41, so they're rushing a whole lot more than they're passing.
- 11:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but it's not because they're not trusting Bear Bachmeyer.
- 11:57SPEAKER_01: Every time they have him throw, he's been going deep.
- 11:58SPEAKER_01: Legend Glasker, our receiver, true freshman out of Lehigh, Utah.
- 12:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 12:03SPEAKER_01: Love that guy.
- 12:04SPEAKER_01: But Bears Bears gonna be good.
- 12:05SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 12:06SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 12:06SPEAKER_01: Final thought for me though is is that that point that you made on Notre Dame, they do have a phenomenal pass defense.
- 12:12SPEAKER_01: So I think I think they're gonna be heavy with LJ Martin.
- 12:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 12:16SPEAKER_01: Um but I think they're gonna do a lot of short pass game to LJ Martin.
- 12:20SPEAKER_01: He's gonna have a massive game, LJ Martin was, and that's what's gonna lead us to the victory.
- 12:24SPEAKER_01: But that's also what's gonna propel him to the number one running back taking the NFL.
- 12:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 12:28SPEAKER_02: Well, it could also, it can also for I think for um Bear Bachmeyer, it can either be a horrible game for him or like the best game ever, and like the high well not highest, not going highest, but I'm like all the draft boards and everything, like he'll put everybody on notice.
- 12:40SPEAKER_02: I love it.
- 12:41SPEAKER_01: Because it can either suck or it can either be insane.
- 12:44SPEAKER_02: I love it.
- 12:44SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 12:45SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 12:45SPEAKER_01: Man, I'm calling it you're so you're calling basically 11 and one, and I'm calling 12-0.
- 12:49SPEAKER_02: Actually, the end of season, including BH12 Championship, we're going to go 12-1.
- 12:53SPEAKER_01: So they win the Big 12, whoever they face in the Big 12.
- 12:55SPEAKER_01: Yep, I like it.
- 12:56SPEAKER_01: So we're safe.
- 12:57SPEAKER_01: So you and I both agree we're going undefeated in the Big 12 this year.
- 13:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 13:00SPEAKER_01: The only loss being in Notre Dame.
- 13:02SPEAKER_01: I like it.
- 13:02SPEAKER_01: This could be fun.
- 13:03SPEAKER_01: Love it.
- 13:04SPEAKER_01: Love it.
- 13:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's BYU.
- 13:05SPEAKER_01: Let's go, baby.
- 13:06SPEAKER_01: Let's go.
- 13:15SPEAKER_01: All right, buddy.
- 13:16SPEAKER_01: It's time to have a little bit of fun.
- 13:17SPEAKER_01: It's time for our mini segment.
- 13:19SPEAKER_01: Here we go.
- 13:19SPEAKER_01: This is Would You Rather Dad versus Son edition.
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: We are just gonna pick a couple topics and then just rapid fire response.
- 13:26SPEAKER_01: Whatever comes out of our mouth is gonna go.
- 13:28SPEAKER_01: Briggs, you ready?
- 13:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 13:34SPEAKER_01: All right, first one.
- 13:35SPEAKER_01: All right, Briggs.
- 13:36SPEAKER_01: This is Legends and Dream Moments.
- 13:38SPEAKER_01: Number one, would you rather hit the game winning shot in the NBA finals or throw the game winning touchdown in the Super Bowl?
- 13:46SPEAKER_01: Uh definitely hit the game winning shot in the NBA Finals.
- 13:49SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 13:49SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 13:50SPEAKER_01: Okay, tell me about that one.
- 13:51SPEAKER_01: Why?
- 13:51SPEAKER_01: I thought you would have picked the other one.
- 13:52SPEAKER_02: Well, no, so the problem with the throw the game-winning touchdown in the Super Bowl is that when you throw it, like, you don't well, like, the receiver can also get a lot of ore from it too, you know?
- 14:02SPEAKER_02: Like in the NBA final shot, you like you get all the ore because it's only you.
- 14:06SPEAKER_02: But when you pass it, like the and and it's a horrible throw, but the receiver still like makes it and has like an insane OBJ touchdown, then like he gets all the ore and you don't, you know.
- 14:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's good.
- 14:16SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 14:17SPEAKER_02: So the NBA final is when I definitely do.
- 14:18SPEAKER_02: So I so like it's gonna sound super selfish, but then like I can just get insanely mana or all about the peak aura.
- 14:24SPEAKER_01: That's peak aura farming is hitting the NBA finals to hit you guys with that lingo.
- 14:28SPEAKER_01: You know what?
- 14:28SPEAKER_01: That actually makes sense because you think about the game-winning touchdown throws in the Super Bowl.
- 14:32SPEAKER_02: Like it has to be perfect throw when your receiver like does nothing for it to be like super crazy.
- 14:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 14:36SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 14:37SPEAKER_01: Like, think about think about that classic drive of Joe Montana when they beat the Cincinnati Bengals in their first Super Bowl.
- 14:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 14:42SPEAKER_01: Joe Montana made that beautiful pass, but his receiver, I think it was Roger Craig, made the phenomenal catch.
- 14:47SPEAKER_01: Or whoever was, I can't remember exactly the receiver.
- 14:49SPEAKER_01: But every time they show the highlights, they don't necessarily show Joe Montana.
- 14:53SPEAKER_01: They show the guy catching it.
- 14:54SPEAKER_02: And then MJ in the 1998 finals they don't talk about Scottie Pippen or doing a screen like they only do Jordan.
- 15:00SPEAKER_01: Just Jordan hitting that.
- 15:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no, that's a good point.
- 15:02SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 15:03SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 15:04SPEAKER_01: I uh I was gonna go with throw the game winning touchdown myself, but now but you kind of you kind of converted me to that one.
- 15:09SPEAKER_01: I was thinking throw the game winning touchdown because probably it's a little bit jaded right now.
- 15:14SPEAKER_01: There's so many more eyeballs on the Super Bowl.
- 15:16SPEAKER_01: There's like 120 million, but the NBA Finals is only pulling like 14 million.
- 15:20SPEAKER_01: So that's kind of why I was thinking that.
- 15:21SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 15:22SPEAKER_01: All right, let's go to the next one.
- 15:23SPEAKER_01: Alright, this is a good one.
- 15:25SPEAKER_01: Okay, staying in the same topic: legends versus dream moments.
- 15:28SPEAKER_01: Here we go.
- 15:28SPEAKER_01: Briggs, would you rather win a championship as a role player or lose the finals as the best player on the planet?
- 15:35SPEAKER_01: Oh, when you lose the finals as the best player on the planet.
- 15:38SPEAKER_01: That's the one you'd rather do?
- 15:43SPEAKER_01: So hold on, Briggs told me just pause the podcast because out in the living room you can probably hear it.
- 15:49SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 15:49SPEAKER_01: What's going on in the living room right now, buddy?
- 15:51SPEAKER_01: This is funny.
- 15:51SPEAKER_02: My aunt is sitting on the chiefs, and I'm getting mad.
- 15:54SPEAKER_02: Call her out by name.
- 15:55SPEAKER_02: Huh?
- 15:56SPEAKER_02: Call her out by name.
- 15:57SPEAKER_02: Abby.
- 15:57SPEAKER_02: Abby.
- 15:59SPEAKER_02: I love my aunt, but I cannot stand anything about the Chiefs.
- 16:03SPEAKER_02: She's the biggest Chiefs, Patrick Mo's man.
- 16:06SPEAKER_02: And Briggs, I can't stand it.
- 16:08SPEAKER_02: Last Monday when when it was the Bengals and Broncos, I mean when it was a Chiefs Broncos game, she like I was just in my room playing music, and she's like started screaming, and I was like, You've got to be freaking kidding me.
- 16:19SPEAKER_02: I can't stand it.
- 16:21SPEAKER_01: We were straight up in the flow of this podcast.
- 16:23SPEAKER_01: And and y'all can't see it from my perspective.
- 16:25SPEAKER_01: But Briggs just get this look like he's gonna throw up and he says, Dad, pause it.
- 16:28SPEAKER_01: No, I said what's up.
- 16:31SPEAKER_01: Abby Abby is screaming because the chief no, I can't have the case.
- 16:35SPEAKER_01: I'm not cutting that.
- 16:36SPEAKER_01: That's going in the podcast.
- 16:37SPEAKER_01: That's funny.
- 16:37SPEAKER_01: Oh my gosh.
- 16:38SPEAKER_01: All right, let's go back.
- 16:40SPEAKER_01: Okay, yeah, yeah.
- 16:40SPEAKER_01: Let's go back.
- 16:41SPEAKER_01: Would you rather have an ant that loves Patrick Mahomes or an ant that gives you a million dollars?
- 16:48SPEAKER_01: I'm just kidding.
- 16:49SPEAKER_01: That one's obvious.
- 16:50SPEAKER_01: All right, which okay, let's go back to that.
- 16:51SPEAKER_01: Would you would you rather win a championship as a role player or lose the finals as the best player on the planet?
- 16:56SPEAKER_01: Yeah, definitely lose the finals as the best player on the planet.
- 16:58SPEAKER_01: You'd rather lose as the best player.
- 17:00SPEAKER_01: Sure, sure.
- 17:00SPEAKER_01: You know what?
- 17:01SPEAKER_01: This one is interesting because most people are gonna read this.
- 17:04SPEAKER_01: In my opinion, they're gonna be like, well, you should rather win a championship as a role player.
- 17:08SPEAKER_01: But I bet you everybody, when they think about it internally, you want to be the man.
- 17:11SPEAKER_01: Even if you end up losing, you want to be the man.
- 17:13SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 17:13SPEAKER_01: That's what you're talking about, right?
- 17:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 17:15SPEAKER_01: I actually agree with that.
- 17:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 17:17SPEAKER_02: I feel like you'd be so lame.
- 17:18SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
- 17:19SPEAKER_02: Like to well, I it obviously be super cool, but like, you know, Jalen Brown doesn't have as much as a love as Jason Tatum.
- 17:26SPEAKER_02: And I feel like I would hate that, you know.
- 17:28SPEAKER_01: So let that's actually a great point.
- 17:30SPEAKER_01: So do you feel like think about long-term aura.
- 17:34SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 17:34SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 17:35SPEAKER_01: If you're if you're a grand if you're a grandpa and you're talking to your kids, your grandkids, and they're like, grandpa, tell us about when you were a player.
- 17:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 17:42SPEAKER_01: And you're like, well, well, I won a championship.
- 17:44SPEAKER_02: Well, I passed it to Michael Jordan.
- 17:46SPEAKER_01: He shot it for me that we won, you know.
- 17:48SPEAKER_01: I did I had a really good pass to him.
- 17:51SPEAKER_01: Really nice spin on the ball.
- 17:53SPEAKER_01: Or would you rather be like John Stockton and Car Malone that said you got to the finals, but you never actually won because you were at least the dog on that team.
- 18:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I get it.
- 18:02SPEAKER_01: I get sure.
- 18:02SPEAKER_01: That's a good point, dude.
- 18:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:04SPEAKER_01: Alright, which one we do next?
- 18:05SPEAKER_01: Eight.
- 18:05SPEAKER_01: Eight.
- 18:06SPEAKER_01: Alright, next one.
- 18:06SPEAKER_01: Alright, this is this is four superpowers time.
- 18:09SPEAKER_01: Briggs, would you rather have Steph Curry's range or Patrick Mahomes' arm?
- 18:14SPEAKER_01: I literally wonder.
- 18:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I definitely won.
- 18:18SPEAKER_02: No, I'm kidding.
- 18:18SPEAKER_02: Mahomes' arm is the whole most horrible thing in the whole world.
- 18:21SPEAKER_02: His arm is overrated.
- 18:22SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 18:22SPEAKER_01: Like, why is this even on here?
- 18:23SPEAKER_02: Well, I it's hard to look at his arm because I all I can look about is his stubby little like stomach fat.
- 18:28SPEAKER_02: He's got a dead body.
- 18:29SPEAKER_02: It's like a chubb.
- 18:30SPEAKER_02: And yeah, but and no, I definitely Steph Curry's range.
- 18:33SPEAKER_02: I mean, everybody knows that Steph Curry's the greatest point guard of all time.
- 18:36SPEAKER_02: Top three in my go rankings.
- 18:37SPEAKER_02: And yeah, absolutely.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: I would be Steph.
- 18:39SPEAKER_01: I would 1,000% have Steph Curry's range.
- 18:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:42SPEAKER_01: You know how awesome it would be just to walk out onto any basketball court, see a hoop at least 40 feet away, and you're like, yeah, I can make this right here.
- 18:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:48SPEAKER_01: Give me 10, give me 10 shots, I'm gonna make seven.
- 18:50SPEAKER_02: Yeah, if I had Mahomes driver, I wouldn't be able to make it past I couldn't throw it past 20 yards.
- 18:55SPEAKER_02: His arm's overrated.
- 18:56SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:56SPEAKER_01: Ah, we can't let's roast Mahomes every chance we get.
- 18:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 18:59SPEAKER_01: Take that, Abby.
- 19:00SPEAKER_01: We're gonna make you listen to this too.
- 19:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 19:02SPEAKER_01: Alright, next one.
- 19:03SPEAKER_01: Let's go to dad versus son showdowns.
- 19:06SPEAKER_01: All right, buddy.
- 19:07SPEAKER_01: Give it to me.
- 19:08SPEAKER_01: Don't hold it back.
- 19:09SPEAKER_01: Because I'm gonna give it to you, man.
- 19:10SPEAKER_01: Alright.
- 19:11SPEAKER_01: Alright, buddy.
- 19:12SPEAKER_01: Would you rather race each other in a 40-yard dash or shoot a full round of free throws?
- 19:18SPEAKER_01: I definitely do race each other.
- 19:19SPEAKER_01: Actually, I'm down to do both because I do win it in both.
- 19:22SPEAKER_01: Nah, I knew you were gonna say that.
- 19:23SPEAKER_01: You think you can Okay, what?
- 19:25SPEAKER_02: Well, no, to race each other in the four-yard dash would be easy because you just pull your hamstring halfway through.
- 19:30SPEAKER_01: But I would be in the lead before I tore it.
- 19:32SPEAKER_01: No, you wouldn't.
- 19:33SPEAKER_01: I would absolutely be cooking you.
- 19:34SPEAKER_01: You wouldn't?
- 19:35SPEAKER_01: I would absolutely be cooking you.
- 19:36SPEAKER_02: No, because you'd be wearing your you'd wearing your like jeans and your freaking cowboy boots and like you'd be struggling to run.
- 19:41SPEAKER_01: Buddy, I would still be whooping you in that 40-yard dash until about 20 yards in.
- 19:45SPEAKER_01: And then you're right, Mike.
- 19:48SPEAKER_01: I dropped all that fat, bro.
- 19:49SPEAKER_01: Dude, you actually would have you would absolutely cook me.
- 19:51SPEAKER_01: Okay, but hold on.
- 19:52SPEAKER_01: Let's shoot a full round of free throws.
- 19:53SPEAKER_01: Buddy, need I remind you, you have never beaten me in a free throw contest.
- 20:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because we've never done one.
- 20:01SPEAKER_02: What are you talking about?
- 20:02SPEAKER_02: Every time we do horse and everything.
- 20:04SPEAKER_02: I'd 100% be 60% of the time when we do a go.
- 20:07SPEAKER_02: I mean when we do a a pig game or a horse game.
- 20:11SPEAKER_01: 60% of the time.
- 20:12SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 20:12SPEAKER_01: Buddy, I would give you, I would give you maybe 5% of the time.
- 20:15SPEAKER_01: No, five?
- 20:16SPEAKER_01: Five percent of the time.
- 20:17SPEAKER_01: Okay, before between now and our next podcast episode, everybody check this.
- 20:21SPEAKER_01: Between now and our next podcast episode, me and Briggs are gonna go play horse and we're gonna report who won.
- 20:26SPEAKER_01: And if he beats me, I will absolutely.
- 20:28SPEAKER_01: 5%?
- 20:29SPEAKER_01: You're getting you're turning into a ballard.
- 20:31SPEAKER_01: Listen, you're already getting stronger than me.
- 20:33SPEAKER_01: You're already getting taller than me.
- 20:34SPEAKER_01: Give me my free throws.
- 20:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, the free throws.
- 20:37SPEAKER_01: You're one you're one glory at this age.
- 20:40SPEAKER_01: You're darn right.
- 20:40SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 20:42SPEAKER_01: Alright, last one, buddy.
- 20:44SPEAKER_01: Would you rather have a dad joke every time you score or a TikTok dance every time you score?
- 20:50SPEAKER_02: Probably just the TikTok advantages because I feel like there's some like super sick ones on TikTok I could do if I score a touchdown.
- 20:56SPEAKER_01: Every time you score as a dad, I'm definitely pulling a dad joke.
- 21:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:00SPEAKER_02: That would be funny.
- 21:01SPEAKER_02: I'm down, I'm down for both.
- 21:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:03SPEAKER_01: I could pull a little TikTok dance.
- 21:05SPEAKER_01: I mean, it might be a little dad mode, but whatever.
- 21:07SPEAKER_01: You know?
- 21:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:08SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: Little move.
- 21:09SPEAKER_01: All right, buddy.
- 21:10SPEAKER_01: Well, that's it.
- 21:11SPEAKER_01: Well, y'all check it.
- 21:12SPEAKER_01: Next podcast, we're definitely gonna report back who won that horse game.
- 21:16SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 21:17SPEAKER_01: Lifetime.
- 21:18SPEAKER_01: Yo, Briggs has only won 5% of the time.
- 21:21SPEAKER_01: I've definitely won 50% of the time.
- 21:23SPEAKER_01: Right, we out.
- 21:32SPEAKER_01: All right, buddy.
- 21:33SPEAKER_01: That segment was fire.
- 21:34SPEAKER_01: But now let's get into our favorite burnt orange team.
- 21:39SPEAKER_01: Let's do a little bit of Texas deep dive, buddy.
- 21:42SPEAKER_01: So so listen, so I'm what I'm trying to figure out is Arch Manning.
- 21:48SPEAKER_01: Is is whether the Longhorns are the real number one or are they just a great defense hiding a potential quarterback question.
- 21:55SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 21:55SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 21:56SPEAKER_01: Now I love Arch Manning, and you know that you know I love Arch Manning.
- 22:00SPEAKER_02: Well I don't I don't I don't necessarily agree with that.
- 22:02SPEAKER_02: Or or just like quarterback like the question. 'Cause they have uh they they have one of the best receiving quarters, they have one of the best O lines that's coming back, and they have uh they have two stud running backs and that I can rush for two hundred plus yards in the game.
- 22:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 22:17SPEAKER_02: So I so if our our fake to me only has to play above average for them to win in the game.
- 22:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 22:24SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 22:25SPEAKER_01: And they will play above average.
- 22:26SPEAKER_01: I mean that defense is is legit.
- 22:28SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 22:29SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 22:29SPEAKER_02: For sure.
- 22:30SPEAKER_01: But here's here's my thing.
- 22:31SPEAKER_01: So well let let's just cover the key numbers first.
- 22:33SPEAKER_01: So so we're ranked number one, which so Steve Sarkeesian uh has actually been ranked number one like six weeks out of his total career.
- 22:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 22:42SPEAKER_01: Which is not bad, right?
- 22:43SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 22:43SPEAKER_01: This is his first time with this season, so they're ranked number one.
- 22:46SPEAKER_01: Um and they're dominating number one rankings, right?
- 22:49SPEAKER_01: Like they've got 58 of the first place votes out of like the total 70, I think, that they get.
- 22:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 22:54SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 22:54SPEAKER_01: So that's pretty good.
- 22:55SPEAKER_01: So they're three and oh, so they've got wins, big one, 59-7 over Texas State, 24-23 over Ohio State, which is what we're gonna get into.
- 23:04SPEAKER_01: And then and then we had the a weird 30 to 6 win over UT San Antonio.
- 23:10SPEAKER_01: I just I don't know.
- 23:12SPEAKER_01: I mean, I I I don't I felt a whole lot better after we had that comeback over Ohio State.
- 23:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 23:17SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 23:18SPEAKER_01: So let let's let's talk about that Ohio State game before we get into Archman and all that kind of stuff.
- 23:22SPEAKER_01: Like that game, peak.
- 23:23SPEAKER_02: That was amazing.
- 23:25SPEAKER_02: I was about to go hang out with my friends, but then when he scored touchdowns, I was like, wait, wait, hold up.
- 23:28SPEAKER_02: And then he scored another one, I was like, wait a minute, and then boom.
- 23:31SPEAKER_02: And then yeah, and then that was sick.
- 23:33SPEAKER_02: Great.
- 23:34SPEAKER_01: That was my favorite game I've ever been, like watched for sure.
- 23:37SPEAKER_01: Oh my god, we were so peaked.
- 23:38SPEAKER_01: We've got video to prove it.
- 23:39SPEAKER_01: Maybe we'll post that on our Instagram.
- 23:40SPEAKER_01: Maybe we'll cut out some of it.
- 23:42SPEAKER_01: But you know, because some of the some of the stuff stays between father and son.
- 23:44SPEAKER_01: That's all I gotta say about that.
- 23:46SPEAKER_01: But what y'all don't know, and I wish I had my camera out before that, is when Ohio State's kicker was up to to seal the win.
- 23:52SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah, and the true this literally got stands up, goes, climbs on the couch, puts a chair, puts it close to the TV.
- 23:58SPEAKER_01: And I say before I'm he's gonna miss and I'm gonna blow it away.
- 24:01SPEAKER_02: He did before.
- 24:02SPEAKER_02: He breaks called his shot.
- 24:03SPEAKER_02: What happened, buddy?
- 24:04SPEAKER_02: I literally blowed it and like and went to the left.
- 24:07SPEAKER_02: I'm being so serious.
- 24:08SPEAKER_01: He blew it to the left and the left.
- 24:11SPEAKER_01: It was crazy.
- 24:11SPEAKER_01: That would have been that would have been the most epic video.
- 24:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 24:14SPEAKER_01: Then he misses, and then the rest is history.
- 24:16SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 24:17SPEAKER_01: Okay, so how were we feeling about Texas after that Ohio State game?
- 24:20SPEAKER_01: I'm feeling so good.
- 24:22SPEAKER_02: I'm feeling we're the best team ever, and not ever, but you know.
- 24:25SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 24:25SPEAKER_02: And Arch Manning, I I thought to me, my anal my analyst of that was I if I could have dreamed of a game, I would not have picked a better game for Archmanning.
- 24:35SPEAKER_02: Like I wouldn't.
- 24:36SPEAKER_02: If I could have chosen a 56-0, 400, 50 yard, five touchdowns, zero interception game versus his game that he had, I would have chosen his um for actual game just because he's NFL teams won't have you know, when you're faced with adverse adversity and you're faced with like all this pressure on you.
- 24:55SPEAKER_02: Because like if think about it, everybody at half around, yeah, this is not the year, like every year, like we're just gonna fire say Sarkeesian after the season.
- 25:02SPEAKER_02: Right, here we go again.
- 25:03SPEAKER_02: Here we go again, all the stuff like if this like this was the year and you can't do it, and then he comes in the fourth quarter looking like Tom Brady.
- 25:09SPEAKER_02: Oh, it was.
- 25:10SPEAKER_02: And that is what you want to see as an NFL scout, not having having just d just destroying cream washing everybody, you know.
- 25:17SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 25:17SPEAKER_02: So yeah, as an NFL scout, I'm like, yeah, that that's the that's our guy we should need to see consistently going forward.
- 25:23SPEAKER_02: And that's what that's my question about Arch Manning.
- 25:25SPEAKER_02: That's a good thing.
- 25:25SPEAKER_02: Because I know he can do it, but he just needs to stay consistent.
- 25:28SPEAKER_02: That's a hundred percent crazy.
- 25:29SPEAKER_01: Because he showed against Ohio State, but you know I I absolutely love Arch Manning, and no Colin Carrott was talking about this with one of his guests, um, but they were talking about, and I agree with we've been talking about it forever, no college quarterback has ever come in with that much pressure on him.
- 25:43SPEAKER_01: And and and Arch Manning didn't do anything to bring it on himself.
- 25:45SPEAKER_01: It was just his name and coming up, right?
- 25:47SPEAKER_01: He's a humble kid, he's just about being a normal teammate, he doesn't want any of the spotlight.
- 25:52SPEAKER_01: Like I love Arch Manning on and off the field.
- 25:54SPEAKER_01: Absolutely love him.
- 25:55SPEAKER_01: And that's what that's what was the tough part is because he wasn't actually playing that great.
- 25:59SPEAKER_01: He wasn't bad, but he wasn't that great.
- 26:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:01SPEAKER_01: At least not up to the standard server.
- 26:02SPEAKER_01: Like, oh, he's overhyped, all this kind of stuff.
- 26:04SPEAKER_01: For him last season to play the first half and he looked bad and everyone dogging on him.
- 26:09SPEAKER_01: And it's Texas, so all eyes are on you, all media is on you.
- 26:12SPEAKER_01: And for him to face that adversity and then.
- 26:14SPEAKER_01: And preseason number one, by the way.
- 26:16SPEAKER_01: Preseason number one, that's right.
- 26:17SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:17SPEAKER_01: And for him and for him to actually um become the the best quarterback the second half of last season by all measurable stuff, he was the number one quarterback.
- 26:26SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:27SPEAKER_01: And then you go to that Ohio State game, it's like his redemption, they looked awful the first half.
- 26:32SPEAKER_01: And even so, yeah.
- 26:33SPEAKER_02: So everybody's like, yeah, this isn't the guy, he's not currently at everything.
- 26:36SPEAKER_01: I mean, it didn't help that his his he he had two drops of beautiful, beautiful passes in the first half.
- 26:40SPEAKER_01: That would have helped him, but he still was missing reads, he was still overthrowing some players.
- 26:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:45SPEAKER_01: But then, like you said, that fourth quarter, he got it all out of his brain and he locked in, he looked great.
- 26:49SPEAKER_01: If I'm an NFL scout, just like what you pointed out, dude, that's such great analysis.
- 26:52SPEAKER_01: I think you're exactly right.
- 26:54SPEAKER_01: Texas was feeling good.
- 26:55SPEAKER_01: They shot him up to number one ranking.
- 26:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:57SPEAKER_01: And then so now everyone was like, okay, sweet.
- 26:59SPEAKER_01: Now he's gonna go have one of those butter games where he has like four hundred thousand yards against UTSA, five thousand touchdowns.
- 27:06SPEAKER_01: Cam Coleman is gonna get five thousand receiving yards in this one game.
- 27:10SPEAKER_01: And then what do they do?
- 27:11SPEAKER_01: We score thirty points against UTSA.
- 27:13SPEAKER_01: Which isn't that much, but he was I mean, he barely he I think he he was he thirteen for he was like seventeen for thirty-six, which is like fifty-two percent.
- 27:22SPEAKER_02: He was he is seventeen of thirty-three, one hundred and sixty-four yards, and two touchdowns.
- 27:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but he missed so many open people and he looked bad again.
- 27:29SPEAKER_02: I feel like he didn't he didn't look bad.
- 27:31SPEAKER_01: He looked very average.
- 27:33SPEAKER_01: Okay, right.
- 27:34SPEAKER_01: Which you know and you're projected to be the number one pick in the college.
- 27:36SPEAKER_01: If you look average, it's like eh, that's bad, you know, I guess.
- 27:39SPEAKER_02: And it was against UTSA, you know.
- 27:41SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 27:41SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 27:42SPEAKER_02: But I'm I honestly feel like I should be wo more worried than I am than I actually am, but I feel like he's gonna be fine.
- 27:48SPEAKER_02: I think so too.
- 27:48SPEAKER_02: Yeah, because like he had a lot of a that AI video stuff and all that kind of thing, and they just got off of Texas of Ohio State, so everybody's still, you know, that's fair.
- 27:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but that's fair.
- 27:58SPEAKER_02: That's fair.
- 27:58SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so but this week it's a big t like this week I it is important.
- 28:02SPEAKER_02: Yeah, against Tennessee.
- 28:03SPEAKER_02: Yeah, at Tennessee.
- 28:04SPEAKER_02: Because Tennessee's ranked what, like 14 or 15 or something.
- 28:07SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
- 28:07SPEAKER_01: They're ranked 14.
- 28:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:08SPEAKER_01: Well, that's just it.
- 28:09SPEAKER_01: So he has moments where it's like, wow, yeah, he's gonna be, he's one of the best college quarterbacks like ever.
- 28:13SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:14SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:14SPEAKER_01: Um, he's got a pro uh pro body, but then he's got moments where he's like, oh, he's just average.
- 28:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:19SPEAKER_01: You know?
- 28:20SPEAKER_01: So I get it.
- 28:20SPEAKER_01: So if he can just if he can just stream together the rest of the season to be consistent like he was the second half of last season, oh he'll definitely be the number one pick.
- 28:30SPEAKER_01: Most people are still saying he'll be the number one pick.
- 28:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah, well, because as an NFL as an NFL team, and like if he were to go to a good you know offensive uh situation like, you know, st um Mike Sh uh Kyle Shanahan or Son McVave, he's not gonna go over there, obviously, but like if he goes to a good offensive coach that he can get developed really, really well.
- 28:49SPEAKER_02: If he goes to the Jets or the Browns, he's cooked.
- 28:51SPEAKER_02: Or the Browns or anybody, he's cooked.
- 28:52SPEAKER_01: Didn't Eli Manning, his uncle, didn't I I think Eli Manning was gonna get drafted number one, but he was gonna be to a horrible team.
- 28:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:59SPEAKER_01: So he did something pre-draft where he's like, no, I'm not going there, so I'm gonna wait or something.
- 29:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 29:03SPEAKER_01: And he was able to get himself to the Giants.
- 29:04SPEAKER_01: That was probably the best move of his career.
- 29:06SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 29:06SPEAKER_01: And I don't have a problem with that.
- 29:08SPEAKER_02: Yeah, for sure.
- 29:08SPEAKER_02: I don't yeah.
- 29:10SPEAKER_02: I completely agree.
- 29:10SPEAKER_01: I want to see Arch Manning not go to the Jets or the Dang Browns.
- 29:13SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 29:14SPEAKER_02: So I'm going to you know a rebuilding Rams Shawn Vape, but that's not gonna happen, obviously, but you know.
- 29:19SPEAKER_02: I love it.
- 29:19SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I love it.
- 29:20SPEAKER_01: Is call is uh is is Texas gonna make the uh the playoff, college football playoffs?
- 29:25SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 29:26SPEAKER_01: Do you think they'll make one of the top four teams and and get like the uh the num round one bye?
- 29:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 29:30SPEAKER_01: I think so too.
- 29:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah, for sure.
- 29:32SPEAKER_01: Prediction championship?
- 29:33SPEAKER_01: Do you think they're gonna win it all?
- 29:35SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no.
- 29:37SPEAKER_01: I think they lose in a national championship.
- 29:39SPEAKER_01: To Notre Dame or something?
- 29:40SPEAKER_01: No, Notre Dame's gonna get knocked out by BYU.
- 29:42SPEAKER_01: I don't think Notre Dame is gonna get there.
- 29:43SPEAKER_02: I don't I feel like there's Notre Dame, I don't know.
- 29:46SPEAKER_02: I'm kind of weird on Notre Dame.
- 29:48SPEAKER_02: I know they have one of the best defenses in the country, but I don't know.
- 29:51SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 29:51SPEAKER_02: I still have a little bit of questions about them, like watching them.
- 29:53SPEAKER_01: I do too, because they their schedule's never really actually that hard.
- 29:56SPEAKER_01: Like they're not going through the SEC gauntlet to be tested.
- 29:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they got kind of a cupcake schedule and all that.
- 30:01SPEAKER_02: The only the the best teams they face are BYU and um and who's the other one they play?
- 30:06SPEAKER_01: I think they got Miami again this year, though.
- 30:08SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 30:09SPEAKER_01: Well, okay, so I just who do you think Texas?
- 30:12SPEAKER_01: I got Texas in the national championship too.
- 30:14SPEAKER_01: Who do you think they'll who do you think they'll play against?
- 30:15SPEAKER_01: Who's who's Texas's biggest competition?
- 30:19SPEAKER_01: It might be an Ohio State rematch.
- 30:21SPEAKER_02: It could be.
- 30:22SPEAKER_02: I think the top ones are Ole Miss, Ohio State.
- 30:26SPEAKER_02: Georgia's weird to me.
- 30:27SPEAKER_02: Geor no, I don't think Georgia.
- 30:29SPEAKER_02: And then yeah, Ohio State, Ole Miss.
- 30:32SPEAKER_02: Um maybe Miami, maybe Indiana, but I still don't know about those teams.
- 30:37SPEAKER_02: But yeah, Miami, Ole Miss, Ohio State, for sure.
- 30:40SPEAKER_01: My top three are Texas, Ohio State, and Georgia.
- 30:43SPEAKER_01: That's who I think.
- 30:44SPEAKER_01: So I I think I think Texas will play one of those two teams.
- 30:46SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 30:47SPEAKER_01: You know how fire that would be if it was a Texas-ohio state rematch.
- 30:50SPEAKER_01: Dude, that'd that that'd be so much more hype than the game.
- 30:53SPEAKER_01: I would be so hype.
- 30:54SPEAKER_01: I'm I'm I'm picking Texas to win it all this year, right?
- 30:56SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 30:56SPEAKER_01: I I think they're gonna they're gonna pull it together enough.
- 30:58SPEAKER_01: They got good enough defense.
- 30:59SPEAKER_01: Their offense is actually gonna be gonna be better.
- 31:02SPEAKER_01: They their running game is a little better than last year.
- 31:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 31:05SPEAKER_01: It was more encouraging until we played UTSA and then we couldn't we couldn't get guys off the blocks and push guys away for open lanes.
- 31:12SPEAKER_01: But we did against Ohio State, though.
- 31:14SPEAKER_01: So I, you know, I don't know.
- 31:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 31:22SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 31:22SPEAKER_01: Well, let's see.
- 31:23SPEAKER_01: We're about running out of time here, buddy.
- 31:25SPEAKER_01: But listen, listen, no episode.
- 31:29SPEAKER_01: Let's do a quick little Joe Burrow thing.
- 31:31SPEAKER_01: That's what I'm saying.
- 31:31SPEAKER_01: Like, Briggs, we cannot have you do a podcast at the beginning of an NFL season without you, dude.
- 31:37SPEAKER_01: Just tell me about Joe Burrow.
- 31:39SPEAKER_01: What is up?
- 31:41SPEAKER_02: So my yeah, where are you at?
- 31:42SPEAKER_02: Joe Burrow is gonna win the MVP, they're gonna be said no.
- 31:46SPEAKER_02: They're gonna get the Super Bowl, they're gonna win the Super Bowl, and they're gonna Chiefs are gonna miss the Super Bowl, the Chiefs are gonna win no more games because they suck.
- 31:53SPEAKER_02: And Mahomes sounds like a frog, but um, yeah, the Bengals are gonna play they're gonna play um Seattle or they're gonna play Seattle.
- 32:04SPEAKER_02: I thought the Bears for a minute, but Calebow just got with a hamstring injury, I think.
- 32:08SPEAKER_02: So I think it'll be Bengals, Seattle, and I think the Bengals win the Super Bowl.
- 32:13SPEAKER_02: Obviously, because of Joe Burrow, but Bengals and Seattle make it back.
- 32:16SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 32:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but so my thing always is every year Joe Burrow kind of sucks in the first two weeks.
- 32:21SPEAKER_02: He either sucks or he gets injured, and the fact that he's he has a bike back type, but you know, the the technology and everything's so good that I feel like it's not that bad.
- 32:31SPEAKER_02: And you know, every every year he plays so horrible in the first like two weeks, and the fact that he's the fact that he has had 200 plus yards in each of his games, and they both won.
- 32:43SPEAKER_02: And on here's a big thing the defense had last week allowed there's a defensive touchdown from a pick six five bad pick six for Joe Bro, and I'll admit that.
- 32:53SPEAKER_02: But the defense allowed 20 points last week and six against a team that put up 32 against Buffalo Bills against Buffalo Bills.
- 33:02SPEAKER_02: So I am so confident in the Bay.
- 33:04SPEAKER_02: If the Bales keeps this up, guys will actually for real watch out.
- 33:07SPEAKER_02: Like the Bales would be so good.
- 33:08SPEAKER_02: Yeah, Bob's gonna light it up, and guys, ever everybody be worried.
- 33:13SPEAKER_01: I'm I mean for real.
- 33:14SPEAKER_01: I I feel you on that.
- 33:16SPEAKER_01: I 100% feel you on that.
- 33:17SPEAKER_01: They're 2-0.
- 33:18SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 33:22SPEAKER_01: Last year we started 2-0, actually.
- 33:23SPEAKER_02: But we I don't remember.
- 33:24SPEAKER_02: No, I think we did start 2-0 last year.
- 33:27SPEAKER_01: I I thought they started slow again.
- 33:28SPEAKER_01: You could be right.
- 33:29SPEAKER_01: I don't remember.
- 33:29SPEAKER_01: I know they typically have.
- 33:31SPEAKER_01: But 2021, the season that they went to the Super Bowl.
- 33:34SPEAKER_01: Um, Joe Burroughs post-game I saw today, and he says, like, this team reminds me very much of 2021, but yeah, says I feel like we're even better.
- 33:42SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but well, I think he also said someone off this night.
- 33:45SPEAKER_02: This team reminded of 2019 out with you when they won a national champion.
- 33:48SPEAKER_02: Oh, that's right.
- 33:49SPEAKER_02: That'd be sick.
- 33:50SPEAKER_02: Uh dude, I I'm so confident, bro.
- 33:52SPEAKER_02: But the defense looks like the defense looks matured, it looks different, it looks more more po more.
- 34:00SPEAKER_02: What's the what's the word I'm trying to look for?
- 34:02SPEAKER_02: They were more powerful, discipline, disciplined, yeah.
- 34:04SPEAKER_02: They can tackle better for sure.
- 34:05SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 34:06SPEAKER_02: They're not, they don't, they're not giving up any missed tackles this year.
- 34:09SPEAKER_02: And they brought energy this game against the Texans.
- 34:11SPEAKER_02: I do freaking see.
- 34:12SPEAKER_01: I I love that the Cincinnati Bengals organization actually invested in the deep defense open ups and brought in Dexter Lawrence, and I can't remember everyone else that they brought in, but yeah, they've they brought in some people that are actually contributing.
- 34:22SPEAKER_02: I just want to say when Joe Burr gets a little bit of help, he's 2-0 just to look at this stuff.
- 34:26SPEAKER_02: But it's not just 2-0 against Cupcakes either.
- 34:28SPEAKER_02: No, we put well the Bucs just lost to the Browns, actually.
- 34:31SPEAKER_01: No, that totally wastes my argument.
- 34:33SPEAKER_01: Okay, maybe the Bucs are gonna suck.
- 34:35SPEAKER_02: Okay, but we just be the Texans who have the best defense in the league.
- 34:38SPEAKER_01: Best defense.
- 34:38SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yep.
- 34:39SPEAKER_01: And we still put up 20 points on him, which there's not gonna be a lot of teams that probably put that much up on them.
- 34:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 34:44SPEAKER_01: Joe Burrow did get a lot of sacks, though.
- 34:46SPEAKER_01: Every time he did, we're like, okay, he's not hurt, right?
- 34:48SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he's not hurting.
- 34:48SPEAKER_01: You could tell he was hurting, like in pain, but he was fine.
- 34:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 34:52SPEAKER_01: So yeah, for sure.
- 34:54SPEAKER_01: I love it.
- 34:54SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 34:55SPEAKER_01: I love it, man.
- 34:59SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 35:00SPEAKER_01: Well, that is this week's episode.
- 35:03SPEAKER_01: We're finally back.
- 35:04SPEAKER_01: We're gonna be more consistent.
- 35:05SPEAKER_01: Finally back.
- 35:06SPEAKER_01: We will be hit we'll be we'll be dropping at least one a week going forward.
- 35:10SPEAKER_01: Um, but listen, buddy, this was You know what this was though?
