[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back guys, that was a very interesting week last week.
0:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I want to again, poor showing from me.
0:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to the wrong direction.
0:36
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm changing it up this week.
0:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I've changed my strategy instead of, like, really doing my homework.
0:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And really studying these matchups.
0:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I have not even looked at the matchups.
0:50
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to tell them to me.
0:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to pick what we have.
0:54
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see how it goes.
0:54
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got rather than a little more.
1:01
[SPEAKER_00]: revolve around who has the prettiest helmet.
1:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Nice.
1:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Last week's winner overall was Jeremy Gigi of White River broadcasting with 37 points, Kevin Helferic of the Action Sports Network, and Grant Shows his broadcasting partner, both scored 34.
1:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Our names don't come up for a while, guys.
1:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Kate Hampton of the Months of Star Press 31, Mike Rich, our Pacers Guy and our childhood friend, 29.
1:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Daniel Bragg of Bragg Sports Media will run the verge of strictly bias, and, chase even to the Coca-Cola Post and Ryan Robinson, all scored 28 points, Eric scored 25, Elijah Poe 22, Elijah's our indie cog guy and of the Ball State Daily News.
1:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Sam Frick of the of A&EC sports scored 15 of the standing through six weeks.
1:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Grant shots of the action sports networks takes the lead for the first time with 180 points Ryan is in second with 174.

2:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Jeremy Gigi who two weeks ago is in last place is up to fifth with 159.
2:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Gade Hampton will rutherford.
2:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Mike Ritchell
2:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Daniel Bragg, Michelle Garmin, J. Stevens, and Sam Frick.
2:24
[SPEAKER_01]: All right guys, here we go for our week seven games.
2:25
[SPEAKER_01]: And there are four local games, a reminder of how this is done.
2:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Every game is worth 10 points.
2:31
[SPEAKER_01]: The underdog is always worth more than the favorite, for example, our first game guys.
2:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I have Oregon, the favorite at home, worth three Indiana worth seven, both teams, five and oh, a top 10 matchup for the Indiana Hoosiers, let's start with your thoughts on this one.
2:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, I really think there's going to be a good game.
2:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I've been dog and I you and after what what what's in the sit down and watch a whole game
3:01
[SPEAKER_00]: My opinion of Indiana has really changed.
3:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I like what I see and I need to score.
3:06
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm taking Indiana on the road at Oregon this week.
3:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Indiana will keep this close for maybe two and a half, three quarters, but I think Oregon's gonna overpower him physically.
3:19
[SPEAKER_00]: They're good on both sides of the ball.
3:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Notice credit, they're disservice to Indiana.
3:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I watch the Iowa game, I watch the Illinois game.
3:26
[SPEAKER_00]: They got a really good team,
3:30
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a tall task.
3:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Oregon pulls out a fourth quarter when in this one, maybe by 10.
3:40
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what my gut tells me is going to happen.
3:42
[SPEAKER_01]: The Oregon's going to win late, but since Indiana's worth more than double the points, and I really think this might be a real thing with Indiana.
3:50
[SPEAKER_01]: They might be, I don't want to say the best team in the country, but it's possible.
3:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I think position for position they have a really good roster, give me Indiana on the road.
4:04
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Oregon's probably going to win in a close one, but because one team is worth seven and the others worth three, give me the Hoosiers.
4:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I think this thing's real guys.
4:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I agree.
4:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Three of our four local games are at three 30 on the peacock app.
4:22
[SPEAKER_01]: It's four and two in sea state at three and two Notre Dame.
4:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Notre Dame coming off an impressive win in C state four and two, the Irish three and two, I have the wolf back worth eight Notre Dame worth two, Eric.
4:36
[SPEAKER_00]: It's only two points, but it I don't think this game's going to be closed too much Jeremiah love and jadarian cries.
4:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I got Notre Dame big.
4:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Notre Dame gets the win here, but I think CJ Bailey's going to pose a problem for the Notre Dame defense.
4:54
[SPEAKER_00]: He's
4:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe R.A.
4:56
[SPEAKER_00]: has 1,600 yards passing.
4:59
[SPEAKER_00]: CJ cars been lightened up.
5:01
[SPEAKER_00]: He's at 1,200 and change passing.
5:04
[SPEAKER_00]: So CJ Bailey's done even better than a car so far.
5:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, I've played one more game.
5:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I realize that.
5:10
[SPEAKER_00]: But I think this is close.
5:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think this is going to be like an arc and saw.
5:16
[SPEAKER_00]: type turnout.
5:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this will be more like a the Boise state game where we're kind of in control of it, but we're not running off with it at the same time.
5:24
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think in C state we'll cover the 22 and a half, but Notre Dame will get the win and we're playing without great house this Saturday.
5:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Notre Dame played very ugly.
5:37
[SPEAKER_00]: against Boisie.
5:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Notre Dame played very ugly last week though.
5:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, penalties and and just not not real discipline.
5:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I look for that to get cleaned up and I think they're going to be pretty sharp.
5:49
[SPEAKER_00]: handle this game.
5:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I have a scene coach frame in that animated on the sideline before he was he was hot over a couple of those calls.
5:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I think in these states probably more comparable to boysy state than the Arkansas.
6:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that was pretty good.
6:03
[SPEAKER_01]: It was kind of exactly what I was going to say Ryan.
6:06
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think it'll be fairly close but comfortable.
6:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think there's any way in in C state wins this game.
6:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the Irish.
6:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Do I still believe we're going to end the regular season
6:19
[SPEAKER_01]: 330 on ESPN plus your Ball State Cardinals coming off an upset of the defending Mac Champion Ohio Bobcats are two and three going to Western Michigan three and three.
6:30
[SPEAKER_01]: I have the Cardinals were seven Western Michigan were three.
6:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Can they do it again, Eric?
6:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm never going to pick both day.
6:37
[SPEAKER_00]: They might be the worst team I've ever seen this year.
6:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Big win last week to get one at home versus Ohio.
6:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Good for them, but I'm taking Western Michigan this week.
6:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I also have Western Michigan being Ball State.
6:52
[SPEAKER_00]: I've watched some of the Ball State game kudos on the win last week, but that's not a very good football team.
6:57
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think they're staring at a seven and a half spread.
7:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So give me the Broncos at home.
7:04
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a bad football team, but they do have a great player in make war.
7:07
[SPEAKER_01]: His who had four and a half stacks last week.
7:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I have a feeling that Western Michigan will probably find him and blocking.
7:15
[SPEAKER_01]: So give me Western Michigan.
7:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I bet they find him now after they listen to this, literally his name came up on every play on defense.
7:23
[SPEAKER_01]: He had four and a half sacks, I don't know, 20 quarterback pressures, that offensive is brutal, brutally bad.
7:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And they may not score a point.
7:35
[SPEAKER_00]: They look like forced way to current fast times at Ridgemont High.
7:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, that was a great.
7:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, then 30 on BTN, your Purdue Boiler makers are two and three.
7:47
[SPEAKER_01]: They go to Minnesota to face the three and two Golden Govers.
7:52
[SPEAKER_01]: I've Purdue were seven and Minnesota were three.
7:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm going to start with this one.
7:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen nothing for Minnesota that tells me they're better than Purdue.
7:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the Purdue on the road.
8:03
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a toss-up game for me as well.
8:05
[SPEAKER_00]: My gut tells me Minnesota home, but I agree with you.
8:09
[SPEAKER_00]: They have shown nothing this year.
8:11
[SPEAKER_00]: They're disappointing.
8:12
[SPEAKER_00]: These ulcer bad.
8:14
[SPEAKER_00]: And produce at least plays with some fire and some emotion.
8:19
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think I'm going to take Purdue in this one as well.
8:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm that both of you guys took produce, so that means I can gain some points on both of you because I'm going with Minnesota at home in this when I just haven't seen enough from Purdue to think they can go on the road and and beat this Minnesota team.
8:38
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going with the go first.
8:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Have you seen Minnesota's research?
8:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Have you looked at their schedule and seen their results?
8:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I have and what that tells me they're do baby.
8:48
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to be rowing the boat at about 10 knots Saturday.
8:59
[SPEAKER_01]: National Games to watch this week, noon on Foxids, 5-0, top-ranked Ohio State, at Illinois, the Illinois, 5-1, their only loss again, so 62-10, to Iowa, Ohio State, we're 3, the Illinois, we're 7 at home, I think this kind of depends on your view of Ohio State.
9:21
[SPEAKER_00]: But my view of Ohio State is there definitely a top two team.
9:27
[SPEAKER_00]: We could debate who the best team is all day, but they're one or two and they're deep no one scoring on them.
9:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Nobody can score on that defense and that's what that's going to be the difference.
9:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I got a Ohio State on the road.
9:43
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking the buck guys too.
9:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think Illinois is going to struggle to put any points on the board.
9:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Washington had a pretty good game plan against Ohio State last weekend and but still the defense of side of the ball with Ohio State.
9:56
[SPEAKER_00]: They were still what was that final about 26 to 3 or something, but it was close late in the third quarter.
10:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Illinois might make it interesting for first half and then I think Ohio State is going to be too much.
10:14
[SPEAKER_00]: do they have a chance in this game?
10:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they do, I think.
10:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I think at home, you're picked.
10:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I think that wasn't it.
10:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Your picks Ohio State, right?
10:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
10:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I assumed it was going to be Ohio State because of your.
10:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Ohio State's Illinois.
10:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Ohio State's defenses incredible.
10:34
[SPEAKER_01]: There's skill players are incredible.
10:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I just don't believe in Ohio, but I'm still taking a Ohio State, Miss one.
10:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think they're going to win the national
10:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Eric mentioned just moments ago that he thinks Ohio State's definitely one of the top two teams in the country, who Eric, who do you think are the top two teams in the country?
10:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I would say Ohio State's definitely one, but who's the second by Ami?
10:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yes.
10:59
[SPEAKER_00]: That's, that's where I was going to say.
11:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Ami's got all 30 different.
11:03
[SPEAKER_00]: They do.
11:04
[SPEAKER_00]: And Carson back at quarterback, I didn't see him look that good when he was at Georgia.
11:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if it's a system or if it's a confidence or what it is, but Carson Beck's looks really good and yeah, I would I think Miami is a top two team.
11:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Look what happened last weekend, Penn State losing at UCLA, they're that could happen any given Saturday.
11:29
[SPEAKER_01]: It happens a lot and that's the one thing with Ohio State that kind of concerns me, this is just seems to be one of those games.
11:37
[SPEAKER_01]: And they'll always pretty good.
11:38
[SPEAKER_01]: They're, you know, they're not like it.
11:41
[SPEAKER_01]: To me, we're never serious.
11:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Like you guys were talking about him being a top 10.
11:46
[SPEAKER_01]: But I do think they're top 25 type team.
11:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And they're pretty good.
11:49
[SPEAKER_01]: But the landing org and might be the best team.
11:52
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll see.
11:54
[SPEAKER_01]: noon on ABC.
11:55
[SPEAKER_01]: It is four in one Alabama at five and oh Missouri.
11:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I have the TAD worth four points.
12:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Missouri worth six.
12:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Eric.
12:05
[SPEAKER_00]: This is, I think, a great matchup.
12:07
[SPEAKER_00]: I, I was part of the, the Georgia game for Alabama.
12:12
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought Alabama looked really good.
12:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I think there, I'm looking for the right word to put on Alabama.
12:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't really pinpoint.
12:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, usually they're just dominant.
12:24
[SPEAKER_00]: or they've been dominant forever, but I just don't know what this PMS and family Georgia, I just don't know.
12:34
[SPEAKER_00]: But I like this very much, I don't know.
12:36
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the sea is kind of a mess.
12:38
[SPEAKER_00]: But I do like Missouri at home.
12:40
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a tough place to go on the road and win.
12:43
[SPEAKER_00]: And for the point that I need, I'm going to take Missouri.
12:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm rolling with the tide on this one.
12:53
[SPEAKER_00]: settled in with that offense at Alabama.
12:56
[SPEAKER_00]: He's been playing great football.
12:58
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be a task on on the road at Missouri, but and I think Missouri might have got him two years ago.
13:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember right.
13:08
[SPEAKER_00]: going back to Simpson watching him through the football.
13:12
[SPEAKER_00]: He can swing the football, man.
13:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's like, yeah, it's all going all over the field.
13:17
[SPEAKER_00]: It's impressive to watch him through the football.
13:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's really grown into that offense.
13:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Alabama goes out there and gets the WM taken Alabama.
13:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, give me Missouri.
13:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Look at home, a new game.
13:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I kind of like Missouri in this would we do have a someone from Alabama and our picks group, Kate Hampton, the months he star presses from Alabama.
13:39
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a Alabama graduate.
13:41
[SPEAKER_01]: He sent me his picks.
13:42
[SPEAKER_01]: He said, I'm picking Alabama, but it don't feel good about it.
13:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And I get what he's feeling.
13:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me Missouri in the upset.
13:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
13:52
[SPEAKER_01]: 330 on ABC, it's the Red River showdown Oklahoma at Texas.
13:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I have the unbeaten Oklahoma sooners were six, three and two Texas long horns were four, but I bet we still sweep with Texas.
14:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, as much as I don't want to.
14:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I've never been much of a Texas fan and we go back if we rear our week one podcast.
14:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, our discussion about arch manning, um, he's basically turning out to be what we, we thought he would be, um, way too much hype.
14:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't, I can't fathom Texas having three losses already.
14:35
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going to take them at home.
14:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to pick Texas, but I'm going to be rooting for Oklahoma.
14:49
[SPEAKER_00]: quarterback rating of 59.
14:52
[SPEAKER_00]: hasn't been real accurate with the ball.
14:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I think hasn't played really well in big contest and this is definitely a big big contest.
15:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's probably got two quarters to get this game under control or I think you could see a move at quarterback by Texas.
15:13
[SPEAKER_00]: If you watched him throw the ball, I think at Utah,
15:21
[SPEAKER_00]: So if one for his scrambling and doing an effective on the ground, there could have been a move maybe made already.
15:28
[SPEAKER_00]: That's just my opinion.
15:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to take Texas in this game.
15:33
[SPEAKER_00]: They're at home.
15:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it's a must win, but I need more information on if Mattere's going to play for Oklahoma.
15:41
[SPEAKER_00]: They said he was going to come back.
15:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I've looked earlier before we went on air.
15:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I still haven't found anything that says whether he's playing or not.
15:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I'd pick Oklahoma, but since I don't know if he's playing, I'm going to say Texas for right now, but I might text you and change my pick tomorrow or Saturday morning.
16:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree.
16:02
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no way Texas falls to three and three.
16:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Material or no material.
16:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I think this is a blowout.
16:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Texas wins by three touchdowns.
16:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I think archmanings and have a good game.
16:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I kind of agree that he's not a very good
16:17
[SPEAKER_01]: But he does a very good athleticism at very good instincts as a runner.
16:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me Texas by 14.
16:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, the thing just one more comment on that.
16:26
[SPEAKER_00]: He's made some unbelievable passes.
16:30
[SPEAKER_00]: But then he's really struggled with the routine passes.
16:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Correct.
16:34
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's my red flag with him.
16:36
[SPEAKER_00]: And you're going to have a big game this week.
16:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Three games in prime time on ABC it's four and one Georgia at three and two Auburn Georgia worth four Auburn worth six.
16:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling you guys Auburn's going to win one of these.
16:53
[SPEAKER_01]: They're not bad.
16:54
[SPEAKER_00]: But they're not going to win this one.
16:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking Georgia all day in this one.
16:58
[SPEAKER_00]: They come now a Bama game of chalking a little bit for Georgia.
17:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Could I I picked Georgia and not thought Connor stocked in this played well this year.
17:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, I like their offense.
17:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's too much offense.
17:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Actually the difference in this game.
17:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, yeah, so I'll take Georgia.
17:18
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be way too much offense from Georgia.
17:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I, I don't think this game will be that close.
17:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I got the bulldogs.
17:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to change my tactic.
17:30
[SPEAKER_01]: I've been picking Auburn and they've been losing these games who give me Georgia.
17:33
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think he's better.
17:37
[SPEAKER_01]: 730 on NBC.
17:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I think two teams that just aren't very good to be honest with you.
17:40
[SPEAKER_01]: They're both four and one.
17:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Michigan at USC.
17:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Neither team has shown me anything.
17:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I have the Wolverines worth for.
17:48
[SPEAKER_01]: The Trojans were six.
17:50
[SPEAKER_00]: That's fine.
17:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I used to go earlier just before we started doing this.
17:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought
18:00
[SPEAKER_00]: The thing to teams are like, they're not really good.
18:02
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not bad.
18:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
18:04
[SPEAKER_00]: But what are they going to do?
18:05
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not going anywhere.
18:06
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they're pretty ugly.
18:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they're the both of them.
18:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I think so too.
18:13
[SPEAKER_00]: The Michigan offense outside the running game.
18:16
[SPEAKER_00]: They can win ugly because they got that running game.
18:19
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what they're going to have to do to win any game.
18:22
[SPEAKER_00]: But they're so they're really bad at quarterback all the hype to.
18:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
18:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to take USC at home, but I would be surprised if these two teams go to like 30 over times and no one could win.
18:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, two pretty disappointing programs at the moment right now, but I'm going to take USC.
18:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be like 51, 48 and 4 over times.
18:55
[SPEAKER_00]: and USC winning.
18:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking USC not because I don't necessarily think they're the better team.
19:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, it's hard for me to ever pick Michigan.
19:04
[SPEAKER_00]: And offensively, it's been ugly.
19:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even know that I'll watch a single play this game.
19:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm that disinterested in both these teams.
19:14
[SPEAKER_00]: But give me USC.
19:18
[SPEAKER_01]: She's exactly right.
19:19
[SPEAKER_01]: They're both four and one.
19:20
[SPEAKER_01]: It seems like a great matchup, but neither teams any good.
19:23
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think USC's really not good.
19:26
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll take Michigan, even on the road.
19:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Some 45 on the SEC network, an interesting game.
19:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Three and two South Carolina at four and one LSU.
19:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I have South Carolina.
19:40
[SPEAKER_01]: We're seven if they can pull off the upset in the Bayou Eric.
19:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Can they do it?
19:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they can do it.
19:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think they will.
19:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I think South Carolina might be one of the biggest disappointments of the season so far outside of Texas and 10 today.
19:55
[SPEAKER_00]: You'd have to put South Carolina right up there too.
19:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm still big on this LSU football team.
20:00
[SPEAKER_00]: And at home at night, I don't think South Carolina has a chance.
20:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll take LSU.
20:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this could get ugly early.
20:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And I had all the hype with the Norse sellers to start the season.
20:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I know we got banged up a little bit but it's been kind of a let down season at this point by South Carolina and I think I know LSU suffered a huge loss but there's still top five team in my opinion and I think that'll win big in that game, give me LSU.
20:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I think this game is going to go all the way down to the last minute, but I think LSU is the better team.
20:39
[SPEAKER_00]: And just for the record, I don't know, Brian Kelly can be hated any more by that fan base.
20:47
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to have to win the national championship.
20:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't you think the keep his job?
20:51
[SPEAKER_00]: He just keeps doing dumb stuff in these press conferences, just roll and everyone under the bus, you know, aside from himself.
21:03
[SPEAKER_00]: He's just an ass, he's an arrogant asshole.
21:07
[SPEAKER_00]: There's just too much evidence that says he's a nice whole.
21:12
[SPEAKER_00]: He better hope he wins a national championship, because I don't think they're going to put up with him too much longer.
21:17
[SPEAKER_01]: He's also not good enough coach to be at Notre Dame in the NLSU.
21:21
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't understand it.
21:23
[SPEAKER_01]: He's fine.
21:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not like he's hurting a program, but I don't understand how he's getting those jobs there or much better coach stuff.
21:32
[SPEAKER_01]: N7PM on ESPN plus coming off a loss to number one, North Dakota State.
21:38
[SPEAKER_01]: The Illinois State Redbirds with star winkers right three and two go to Murray State.
21:44
[SPEAKER_01]: The races are winless.
21:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Illinois State, right?
21:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I'll die long.
21:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Illinois State, go Redbirds.
21:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Go Redbirds too much winkers right.
21:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Illinois State on the road.
21:58
[SPEAKER_00]: the race here's getting raced.
22:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that's right.
22:03
[SPEAKER_01]: We love the red birds here on the central Indiana's version.
22:07
[SPEAKER_01]: It'll annoy states our home team for another five or six games and looking forward to going and seeing him in a couple of weeks that live at Indiana State.
22:19
[SPEAKER_00]: When I want to make one comment before I sign off here earlier in the week, I
22:26
[SPEAKER_00]: But when they expire this college football playoff, I thought, there's no way there's gonna be 12 teams that can have a shot to win it.
22:33
[SPEAKER_00]: This is all about money.
22:35
[SPEAKER_00]: There's gonna be only three or four teams who have a legitimate shot at winning this whole thing.
22:40
[SPEAKER_00]: And I text you and I said, there's 12 teams that could win it this year.
22:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And after I texted, I thought, well name them.
22:47
[SPEAKER_00]: And I routed off 11, instantly that could win this whole thing.
22:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Do it.
22:52
[SPEAKER_00]: God, sting, LSU Miami, Ohio State, Oregon, Indiana, Notre Dame, and why wanted to have Georgia, Alabama.
23:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's see if Indiana was on it.
23:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Last year was exciting.
23:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Just for for it being the first time, but this playoff format this year is going to be off the chart.
23:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Good.
23:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I cannot wait for it.
23:16
[SPEAKER_00]: We got a little higher.
23:17
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just way better than everybody else, which could be.
23:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't, I don't, I'm not seeing that yet.
23:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Meet me there.
23:25
[SPEAKER_00]: What if someone is, it's probably them.
23:28
[SPEAKER_00]: And I tell you, I said it earlier, I put my amy right up at the top.
23:32
[SPEAKER_00]: That Miami defense is, I'm telling you, they got three or four first rounders on there and they dominate.
23:37
[SPEAKER_00]: You look at what Notre Dame's offense is doing now.
23:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Against either teams, they, Miami's for real.
23:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Notre Dame, one of those teams too though, right?
23:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I got another time in there.
23:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep, we're definitely one of those teams that could win it all.
23:51
[SPEAKER_01]: If they cannot lose another one, though, they cannot, no, no, not at all.
23:57
[SPEAKER_00]: That's great.
24:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm glad you brought that up.
24:02
[SPEAKER_00]: He and I talked about it on text that there's 10 or 12 teams.
24:06
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just wide open.
24:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the dominant teams right now, you got Ohio State, Miami, Oregon.
24:13
[SPEAKER_00]: And then there's eight to 10 teams.
24:16
[SPEAKER_00]: on any given Saturday could when I had to head match up with any of those three.
24:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It really has been a great season so far.
24:25
