3:20
[SPEAKER_06]: Speaking of your dad, Gerard, he will be our guest today on the morning.
3:25
[SPEAKER_06]: Let's, he is in route at this point in time.
3:27

3:29
[SPEAKER_05]: No, I talked to him yesterday said they're not leaving until 10 30 today.
3:33
[SPEAKER_05]: I think there may be five or four or five hours out, so not too bad.
3:37
[SPEAKER_05]: They went halfway yesterday and then halfway today.
3:41
[SPEAKER_06]: So where were they at right now currently?
3:43
[SPEAKER_06]: Do you know?
3:44
[SPEAKER_05]: No, it's somewhere in Oklahoma.
3:45
[SPEAKER_05]: That's all right.
3:46
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll have to get a road report from Gerard.
3:48
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.
3:49
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll have to do it.
3:49
[SPEAKER_06]: But Gerard Wellbrock, the...
3:51
[SPEAKER_06]: Voice of the Fort Hey State Tigers will join us on the program and we'll be talking with with him Who's all on?
3:59
[SPEAKER_06]: Who's all in the crew going down there?
4:01
[SPEAKER_06]: Do you know?
4:01

4:09
[SPEAKER_06]: That'll be great.
4:10
[SPEAKER_05]: He guys want speaker for the show I'll be good
4:16
[SPEAKER_06]: So anyway, they're on the road at Angelo State tonight.
4:19
[SPEAKER_06]: So that is a seven o'clock central time kickoff there from San Angelo, Texas.
4:25
[SPEAKER_06]: I bet it's hot down there.
4:26
[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, yeah, I bet it's hot.
4:29
[SPEAKER_06]: Could be hopefully those air conditioners work in the press box.
4:31
[SPEAKER_06]: If they have them.
4:33
[SPEAKER_05]: You never belong on the sidelines of this.
4:36
[SPEAKER_05]: Could be a little hot.
4:37
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, on that turf too.
4:39
[SPEAKER_06]: I'm guessing they have turf.
4:40
[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
4:41
[SPEAKER_06]: I would assume that.
4:41
[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know that.
4:42
[SPEAKER_05]: They've ever been so, but I would assume as well.
4:45
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll have to take a peek into that.
4:46
[SPEAKER_06]: So, Jarrod Wellbrock will join us today.
4:49
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll be our guest.
4:50
[SPEAKER_06]: I think there might have been a, I saw this as we get to this will be segment three's topic, but I think I saw that Kansas football might have named their starting quarterback without really maybe doing it, but I feel like they might have named it.
5:02
[SPEAKER_06]: So, we'll get to that coming up in segment number three, a long time staple.
5:08
[SPEAKER_06]: of ESPN is leaving us in the walk-off and its name is not Carl Ravich, we'll get to the hat in the walk-off coming up here in today's program and we're going to talk a little bit of college football playoff predictions today since college football this kind of kick off I mean once again understand it's maybe not be division one but we'll talk college football playoff predictions.

9:23
[SPEAKER_06]: I mean, majorly baseball is the only all star game that I think is worth the darn and the weekend is worth the darn just because they actually are playing the sport that they play.

[SPEAKER_06]: Is that is that web page look actually real?
15:03
[SPEAKER_05]: Looks like they're division two.
15:08
[SPEAKER_05]: I know they're like central Oklahoma plays central Arkansas, so some of these FCS teams are playing D2 schools, and for the D2 I don't know if it hurt like I don't know if that counts to your like record when it comes to post season or not It better because I mean that's it with I don't yeah
15:27
[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
15:28
[SPEAKER_06]: Let's see.
15:29
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, not a lot of other interesting games in the division or in the FCS ranking.
15:33
[SPEAKER_06]: You got to wait until maybe this weekend, get some better games or better.
15:38
[SPEAKER_06]: Some of the bigger name teams will play this weekend in the FCS looks like it like Montana, Montana state.
15:45
[SPEAKER_06]: You can't you can't talk FCS football without the Montana schools.
15:48
[SPEAKER_05]: I don't know, can't do that.
15:50
[SPEAKER_05]: Your stadiums are awesome.
15:51
[SPEAKER_05]: I actually got chance to see there's both of them.
15:53
[SPEAKER_05]: Montana and Montana stayed in that place.
15:56
[SPEAKER_05]: Obviously.
15:56
[SPEAKER_06]: So you've been to Miss Ula?
15:57
[SPEAKER_06]: Is what you're saying?
15:58
[SPEAKER_06]: Yes.
15:59
[SPEAKER_06]: I'd love to go to Miss Ula.
16:02
[SPEAKER_05]: drove through it had to stop by the stadium and Montana's stadium is.
16:06
[SPEAKER_05]: That's legit.
16:07
[SPEAKER_06]: I just saw Montana was the best college atmosphere of FCS.
16:10
[SPEAKER_06]: I think I saw something like that.
16:12
[SPEAKER_05]: I bet it is.
16:14
[SPEAKER_06]: I love how the stadium is built up pretty much against the mountain, so you know, you kind of, from one side, you can look up into the face of a mountain, pretty darn cool, pretty darn cool.
16:23
[SPEAKER_06]: So, yeah, anyway, yeah, that's the thing about FCS, you get, you get the vastus, you get the stadiums out in the wilderness of nowhere land, you know, Weber states and
16:34
[SPEAKER_06]: You know, and Montana and all those things and then you get the vastness and then you get the indoor stadiums of your northern Iowa's and your North Dakota Get the vastness of stadiums and I know handles.
16:48
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's one of the cooler ones.
16:50
[SPEAKER_05]: I never been to that one.
16:51
[SPEAKER_06]: That one looks cool as well Also, Idaho State is also an indoor seat for us to get into the Bengals are so okay.
16:56
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
16:57
[SPEAKER_06]: Well, this is really gotten off the rails talking about
17:01
[SPEAKER_06]: Isn't a week from today when Colorado starts there on Thursday night against Georgia Tech is a week Tonight to kick off the FBS season.
17:10
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, that's kind of the beginning of that week one and you know Really the start in my opinion the start of college.
17:16
[SPEAKER_05]: I know it starts this weekend.
17:17
[SPEAKER_05]: I would agree But it you know, it's it's like you just get a taste of what you know an appetizer is the word you're looking for an As a big appetizer.
17:25
[SPEAKER_05]: This is like Like two or three mozzarella sticks.
17:29
[SPEAKER_05]: It's not like
17:30
[SPEAKER_05]: 8 or 10 is okay, couple.
17:32
[SPEAKER_06]: So let me ask you this.
17:34
[SPEAKER_06]: How many sticks of Mazurella?
17:35
[SPEAKER_06]: Are you eating when you sit down?
17:37
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, you know, a couple.
17:38
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm talking like for the whole group for everyone can go one maybe a half.
17:44
[SPEAKER_05]: That's what we're getting this week.
17:46
[SPEAKER_06]: Everybody gets one or a half of a Mazurella stick when you sit down with the group.
17:51
[SPEAKER_05]: That's wonderful.
17:52
[SPEAKER_06]: okay we got a couple minutes here let's let's switch over and touch a little bit on on on our on our on our cultural playoff predictions so I want to start off with just some a question you know there's going to be at least one college football team that's going to be represented from the group of five not the power four what team do you believe that is going to be this year?
18:15
[SPEAKER_05]: So I was looking this up just before the show on who I would think and I think the main answer is Boise State.
18:22
[SPEAKER_05]: They're probably the best fit right now because they'll have a decent like a tougher schedule.
18:29
[SPEAKER_05]: So they can probably afford to lose a game in there and still when their conference being in the pack 12 now.
18:35
[SPEAKER_05]: So I would pick them, but I think they want to go Texas State.
18:39
[SPEAKER_05]: Texas State's a team.
18:45
[SPEAKER_05]: But Texas State, they, they, they actually, I think are going to have a really good season looking at it out of the, well, they're in the pack 12 too.
18:54
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, they're out of the pack 12 now.
18:56
[SPEAKER_05]: They're going to be a team.
18:57
[SPEAKER_05]: I think that's going to be under the radar that could compete with Boise State.
19:01
[SPEAKER_05]: It's going to be one of those two.
19:02
[SPEAKER_05]: I guess for the sake of it, I would love to take Texas State, but I got more trust in Boise.
19:07
[SPEAKER_05]: So I'll go Boise to get in, but Texas State don't sleep on them to, to possibly be a team that gets in.
19:13
[SPEAKER_05]: But I feel like the Pac-12 winner will be the group of five.
19:16
[SPEAKER_06]: I think that's a two team race for the sleeper of the of the of the I should say.
19:20
[SPEAKER_06]: It's a two team race for the teams to get into the CFP.
19:23
[SPEAKER_06]: One of them I would agree is probably Boise State.
19:25
[SPEAKER_06]: They have got a semi-challenge.
19:27
[SPEAKER_06]: They have Oregon and their season opening game.
19:29
[SPEAKER_06]: That's not going to be fun.
19:31
[SPEAKER_06]: Probably going to take that one on the tailpipe pretty hard.
19:33
[SPEAKER_06]: After that you got to find a way to play pretty well.
19:36
[SPEAKER_06]: But I think they have a game against
19:39
[SPEAKER_06]: Memphis in week two, which is humongous because Memphis is also one of these teams that might be contending to make the CFP.
19:46
[SPEAKER_06]: I think one of the teams that you probably don't like because of your favorite team, but I think they got a great chance to get in there.
19:52
[SPEAKER_06]: The midshipmen of Navy, and oh how glorious it would be if they made the CFP.
19:58
[SPEAKER_05]: You know, a team like that gets in and I think a lot of times you don't expect the group of five team to win that first round game, especially because they're probably on the road and a hostile environment having to beat up, you know, a powerhouse.
20:11
[SPEAKER_05]: But I think if like a team like Navy was to get in, they would have a legit shot with that type of option offense, that would be pretty fun.
20:18
[SPEAKER_05]: I would have to say that's a win for the military academy's nonetheless.
20:21
[SPEAKER_06]: Of course it's a win for America.
20:24
[SPEAKER_06]: It's what it is.
20:25
[SPEAKER_06]: It's a win for America.
20:28
[SPEAKER_05]: Navy and army playing in that in the final game of the season and it's one of them has a trip to go to the college of all playoff Yeah, I mean it's awesome.
20:38
[SPEAKER_06]: I mean think about how bad army would want to beat Navy to end that and just Absolutely stick the knife in them.
20:44
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, and then you know.
20:45
[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I know it's a win for a man That's that's the slogan.
20:49
[SPEAKER_06]: It's a win for America if Navy gets in the college football playoff They were 11 and two last year folks
20:55
[SPEAKER_06]: and uh... i think that they they have a good chance now they do have no-to-date on the schedule and they have to replace their star quarterback play corebath but uh... i still believe they have a good chance of making it sleeper pick uh... in in this why would say would be you tsa universe of texas and it's gonna
21:12
[SPEAKER_06]: Jeff Trailer is a great football coach, and he continues to have a really, really good program down there with the road runners, Mimi, at UTSA.
21:21
[SPEAKER_06]: And so I think there could be a real dark horse team coming from the back of the pack.
21:26
[SPEAKER_06]: No doubt, Boise State, probably the favorite, by the Navy's right in the mix there, and my steep sleeper UTSA at this point in time.
21:33
[SPEAKER_06]: UTSA.
21:34
[SPEAKER_05]: Okay.
21:35
[SPEAKER_05]: All right.
21:36
[SPEAKER_06]: So, yeah, so if you want to fill out the rest of your college football playoff, 11 teams,
21:42
[SPEAKER_05]: Well, I'll try to think of how I would see this.
21:44
[SPEAKER_05]: Oh, God.
21:45
[SPEAKER_06]: I don't try and do that.
21:46
[SPEAKER_05]: I love nothing like that.
21:47
[SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I was like, how would I see this up?
21:49
[SPEAKER_05]: But I think that we're going to put some of the main stays in there.
21:52
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like Ohio State Oregon, a Notre Dame's already in the playoffs.
21:58
[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, they carry it.
21:59
[SPEAKER_05]: I gosh, if the easiest schedule of all time, Georgia, I think we'll get in Texas, we'll get in.
22:07
[SPEAKER_05]: I want to know if they'll win the SEC or not.
22:09
[SPEAKER_05]: That'll be something I want to watch as the season you know unfolds.
22:14
[SPEAKER_05]: I think they're a really good team.
22:15
[SPEAKER_05]: They will make it this year.
22:16
[SPEAKER_05]: I feel like Miami, I think will be the ACC winner.
22:19
[SPEAKER_05]: I do think, Indiana, I've seen some people not too high
22:25
[SPEAKER_06]: I think they get in and honestly, I think there are top 16 just where signetti once them thinking not thinking much about him.
22:32
[SPEAKER_05]: I mean, I know they got a new quarterback and they obviously lost a ton from last year, but in signetti we trust.
22:40
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm going to trust part of the best coaching coach football right now and they will get in.
22:46
[SPEAKER_05]: So yeah, Indiana, I think
22:50
[SPEAKER_05]: I think unless you will get in, you know, there's obviously a lot of going on there, but I just feel like they can be one of the top 12 teams and all the benefit of the doubt in the SEC to possibly be a three loss at LSU team to get in.
23:04
[SPEAKER_05]: And then it gets a little dicey.
23:06
[SPEAKER_05]: I actually inputting two big 12 teams in for the first time ever.
23:09
[SPEAKER_05]: Wow.
23:11
[SPEAKER_05]: I think BYU and Texas Tech could get in.
23:15
[SPEAKER_06]: I think both of a spot of which conference you think they're taking it from.
23:19
[SPEAKER_05]: I think it would be probably either, well, maybe the SEC, I think maybe Bama doesn't get in.
23:26
[SPEAKER_05]: But I also think when you talk about they're going to have to play an extra conference game, would they say BYU and Texas Tech lose one regular season game?
23:35
[SPEAKER_05]: Would they give an SEC team loses three games in the regular season over a one loss big 12 team I just find that hard to believe even though we know the SEC bias in this yeah I just I feel like one of those but one of those is in BYU attack I think maybe both could get in and then I'll go to Texas A and them to round out the 12 interesting.
23:58
[SPEAKER_06]: uh... let's see count for me here was i pull this together so what's i'm gonna put navy in uh... it's a it's a it's a it's america's team navy is in there is one of the squads uh... you're gonna have your Ohio state and you're organ and you're no-terdam i feel very calm and georgia i feel very confident about those teams uh... i feel confident about my amy so what about two now six uh... six teams there total if you're confident about my amy uh...
24:26
[SPEAKER_06]: I feel like BYU for some reason is going to be a lock this year.
24:31
[SPEAKER_06]: I feel better about them than I do about Texas Tech, so I'm going with BYU as my team from the Big 12.
24:38
[SPEAKER_06]: I do think we're going to see Indiana again, that's up to eight.
24:42
[SPEAKER_06]: guy, I hate it, but I guess we're going to put Texas in there, now we're up to nine, and I'm going to put USC in, I think, as C makes in a college football playoff appearance, I'm up to 10, I need two more teams, correct here?
24:56
[SPEAKER_06]: Yes, I'm going to roll with Oklahoma, I think John material is back, and I think Oklahoma is going to be really, really good.
25:06
[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, man.
25:09
[SPEAKER_06]: almost need another sleeper team here almost at L. U.
25:14
[SPEAKER_06]: You know what, no, I'm not, I'm not going to let you.
25:16
[SPEAKER_06]: I'm not going with you know, I'm I'm going to ride on your coat.
25:19
[SPEAKER_06]: Tills a little bit here because I love your thought you're thinking on this.
25:21
[SPEAKER_06]: I will go Texas tag getting in as well.
25:23
[SPEAKER_06]: Two big 12 teams and the reason why I like it.
25:27
[SPEAKER_06]: is because, like you said, the SEC is picking up another conference game this year.
25:33
[SPEAKER_06]: They have 10 games total against power four group of four power four teams.
25:40
[SPEAKER_06]: That's going to result in more losses.
25:42
[SPEAKER_06]: It just will.
25:44
[SPEAKER_06]: And we're going to learn this year how the committee wants to handle that.
25:49
[SPEAKER_06]: We're going to learn how the committee wants to do that.
25:52
[SPEAKER_06]: So it's going to be fascinating.
25:54
[SPEAKER_06]: Uh, to see that for sure.
25:56
[SPEAKER_06]: So, um, because if they set precedent where they're like, well, the SEC sees the SEC and we still think they're the best conference ever.
26:03
[SPEAKER_06]: And so it doesn't matter if they lose another conference again, they play in the hardest conference, you know, whatever, it counts more than if, you know, Texas tack only had two losses, you know, they set precedent, then they will know more.
26:13
[SPEAKER_06]: But I'm going to, I'm going to just say, I think I will go with you that Texas tech gets in as that number two team, they're highly talented and they get in.
26:21
[SPEAKER_06]: and an SEC team like Alabama or something does knock it in because of that.
26:25
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm actually going to change my pick.
26:27
[SPEAKER_05]: I'm going to go BAM over A&M to get in.
26:30
[SPEAKER_05]: I think I remember we talked about it a couple of weeks ago or maybe like last week.
26:34
[SPEAKER_05]: They have the, what are the easiest schedules in the SEC?
26:37
[SPEAKER_05]: They have loyal a lot of the big teams.
26:39
[SPEAKER_05]: So I will give BAM of the benefit of the doubt and A&M, who, of course, lost their offensive coordinator in Colin Klein, we'll see how that happens as well.
26:48
[SPEAKER_05]: But I think I'll go A&M is going to be, being one of those first teams out and I'll
26:54
[SPEAKER_06]: There you go.
26:55
[SPEAKER_06]: Call a true pull playoff prediction.
26:57
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll see, we'll see how it all ends up playing out here.
26:59
[SPEAKER_06]: That's the best part about this season.
27:01
[SPEAKER_06]: I thought about throwing Penn State in there because they're going to have an easy schedule and they could be there, but I just don't have that.
27:06
[SPEAKER_06]: It's a long way to climb up there.
27:08
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll see.
27:09
[SPEAKER_06]: And we all know that someone in the top 10 is going to come crashing out of the top 25.
27:13
[SPEAKER_06]: We all know who that, we don't know who that team's going to be.
27:15
[SPEAKER_06]: I think I know who it's going to be, but I mean, beside that.
27:17
[SPEAKER_06]: So Ole Miss is who that's going to be.
27:20
[SPEAKER_06]: But that's why I didn't have him in there.
27:21
[SPEAKER_06]: I think they're overrated.
27:24
[SPEAKER_06]: Okay, let's get to a break.
27:25
[SPEAKER_06]: We will take a time out.
27:27
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll come back and we'll our guest today, uh, Gerard Wellbrock.
27:30
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll join us, uh, on the road to Angelo State.
27:34
[SPEAKER_06]: We'll talk a little Fort Hay State tiger football next here on the morning blitz.
