The IU Report with Grant Shouse & Mike Hutsell (2.114.1) · The Central Indiana Sports Report

0:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report.
0:03
[SPEAKER_02]: IU fans live today from stage 22 in beautiful Owood Indiana.
0:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm joined at stage 22 by Grant Shouse and on the phone.
0:14
[SPEAKER_02]: By my cuts all day are here to talk some IU football.
0:17
[SPEAKER_02]: A little bit of IU basketball wherever they want.
0:20
[SPEAKER_02]: The next half hour or so is yours.
0:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Grant take it away.
0:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Greg, I gotta say this is a beautiful, this is a beautiful home that your mother has decorated.
0:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Not my mother's house.
0:31
[SPEAKER_03]: It's due to stage 22.
0:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think you're on stage 22 of the dial about living with your mom, good.
0:40
[SPEAKER_01]: It's his mom was with him, Mike.
0:45
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a really change of eye you football ever the weekend.
0:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Did it, Mike, was there?
0:50
[SPEAKER_01]: What was there anything that happened that maybe is worth talking about here at length?
0:55
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I can't really think of anything like anything historic.
0:58
[SPEAKER_03]: Of a 16, 16 minutes second, does I want you to know I'm firing?
1:03
[SPEAKER_01]: That was pretty, that was pretty cool.
1:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I had to think Saturday night, besides they're being an embarrassing basketball game there at Reparina.
1:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Indiana had its first ever highs in trophy when our Fernando Mendoza take the coveted highs in trophy award back to Bloomington.
1:22
[SPEAKER_01]: I know we reacted to it and we're kind of going to rehash that reaction here.
1:26
[SPEAKER_01]: That was awesome for him to be able to do that.
1:31
[SPEAKER_01]: What a great guy for it to happen to.
1:33
[SPEAKER_03]: Then you see the videos of everything that I'm coming out after he's walking around time square.
1:39
[SPEAKER_03]: People are chaining his name.
1:41
[SPEAKER_03]: He says today that he didn't need security.
1:45
[SPEAKER_03]: He had his other line with them.
1:47
[SPEAKER_03]: He's having the defense of guys.
1:49
[SPEAKER_03]: We're with them.
1:51
[SPEAKER_03]: me in a football is getting chanted on Times Square New York after the high has been trophy ceremony.
1:56
[SPEAKER_03]: Every time we talk about it, it feels like Jesus can't be this good and it is.
2:02
[SPEAKER_03]: And here we are again.
2:04
[SPEAKER_03]: And then we get the free advertising of 60 minutes last night.
2:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Just fun.
2:13
[SPEAKER_03]: It's fun to be in a knee and a fan.
2:15
[SPEAKER_03]: That's for that's for day.
2:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure what was your thought before we really get in a eyes and ceremony ceremony, but what do you think of that a 60 minute segment?
2:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Have you watched it?
2:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I did.
2:25
[SPEAKER_03]: I watched it today and didn't get a chance to see it last night, but I did watch it today.
2:36
[SPEAKER_03]: They hired this guy that nobody else was really looking at, and now they don't suck anymore.
2:41
[SPEAKER_03]: One thing, how cool do you have to be for the university to set up a whole like shack for you at the top of their press box so that you can smoke during the game like John Mullen Camp can.
2:56
[SPEAKER_03]: The only person in Bloomington that gets away with smoking inside the stadium is John Nellonkant because they give him his own smokers lounge on the top of the press box at Memorial Stadium.
3:07
[SPEAKER_03]: And I did not know that, and Ty, I watched it, and I always wondered what that was.
3:11
[SPEAKER_03]: I had no clue, just think that's the coolest thing in the world, the most compelling thing for me for that is,
3:20
[SPEAKER_03]: The Han Fisher, who has watched so much bad football in his life, is just you can tell just reveling in this.
3:28
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the coolest thing in the world at home.
3:31
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a reward for a whole thing career in a lot of ways, because if anybody deserves what's happened with any NFL ball, it's that guy, and he got national attention on Sunday for his hard work.
3:47
[SPEAKER_01]: really get into being a play by play guy for most of my life here, and now that I've started to do it, I'm a little bit of a smaller scale at the high school level, Don Fisher's a guy that I've looked to take his new autism and his flow in the way he calls the game, and he's
4:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I know at one time before has dealt with the figure similar to Dodd-Fisher when he was at IUP.
4:19
[SPEAKER_01]: This is just the...
4:21
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a little fun fact here is that I U.P.
4:25
[SPEAKER_01]: has said there's Don, their version of Don Fisher for years and it was a guy named Jack Benedict and he's the guy that did, you know, the Kurt Signetti show clear back at I.E.P.
4:35
[SPEAKER_01]: He's dealt with a guy similar at Don Fisher, but Don Fisher, like you said, Mike is watch so much bad football, he's watch some bad basketball two over the years.
4:44
[SPEAKER_01]: The guy that's called three national titles on the basketball floor got to work with
4:49
[SPEAKER_01]: arguably the greatest college basketball coach of all time called the last undefeated college basketball season in 1976, 50 years ago.
5:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I think we'll tell you that this is probably the most fun he's had.
5:05
[SPEAKER_01]: as being the play by play guy for over 50 years at Indiana University and it truly is remarkable to see how far he's come and he gets to witness this and it's awesome, you know, and he has no intention of slowing down on that thing.
5:22
[SPEAKER_03]: Anybody who knows anything about listening to college athletics, people who aren't even in the NFL hands,
5:31
[SPEAKER_03]: No Dawn Fisher, and I've never heard saying of another school say a negative thing about Dawn Fisher.
5:38
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
5:39
[SPEAKER_03]: You can see what you want about Bucks or who ever has been the color guy, you know, Eric Silver for that.
5:47
[SPEAKER_03]: Not Larry.
5:49
[SPEAKER_03]: Larry was there for a while for basketball.
5:51
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe more.
5:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, the late Royce Walton was there for basketball for a while.
6:01
[SPEAKER_03]: What a clown.
6:03
[SPEAKER_03]: No one has ever said that about Don Fisher.
6:05
[SPEAKER_03]: I've never heard a single person say, because Don Fisher wears a legions as hard.
6:11
[SPEAKER_03]: And he doesn't even hide the most of the time.
6:13
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he doesn't seem to matter.
6:16
[SPEAKER_03]: He delivers it in such a way that just doesn't annoy the piss out of you.
6:21
[SPEAKER_03]: It's very nice as much as anybody.
6:23
[SPEAKER_03]: I hate hated Bob Lany from the cult.
6:26
[SPEAKER_03]: Really?
6:28
[SPEAKER_03]: God, I stay and listening to that man on the radio.
6:31
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not a cold fan, but I was like, and in all carols, and what the white songs, and I was like, guys, they're most happy guys just drive me freaking crazy, but Fisher, we know he's in any NFL.
6:45
[SPEAKER_03]: He doesn't hide that he's in any NFL.
6:48
[SPEAKER_03]: And yet he delivers in such a manner that people aren't like, well, and this guy's a clown.
6:54
[SPEAKER_03]: He's got a little bit of professionalism in the way he's over.
6:57
[SPEAKER_03]: Whereas he's other guys are just idiots.
7:01
[SPEAKER_01]: The color people he's had over the years that if common went and Todd Leary who did it for a long time who is not doing it anymore.
7:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, hasn't done it since his first arrest was when he got arrested while doing a game, my new,
7:17
[SPEAKER_01]: unbelievable guys like Eric sewer who i i actually think is really good i think does a good job i enjoy listening to him you know just a local bloomington guy there who got a shop playing at i you and and i think it's funny how Eric does the color for basketball minus dad but does the color for football bucket terrible but he does bring the comedic effect to
7:44
[SPEAKER_01]: to the broadcast and where Don Fisher can kind of relax, especially nowadays when they're you know, or when they have blown teams out the way they have, you can kind of relax and call the game and have a good time.
7:56
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll give Bucks a credit for that, but he is not my favorite, and you mention those guys that you can't stand listening to on the radio, I haven't listened enough to Bob
8:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I key does a great job.
8:15
[SPEAKER_01]: But we're going grad.
8:18
[SPEAKER_01]: you're right, and Don Fisher's a guy who, if you haven't heard a story, look up, look up how Don Fisher got into broadcasts and just a guy who was working the night shift at a train station and saw an ad to be a play by play guy in the back of a magazine and took all these classes and then worked his way up and ended up getting the job at Indiana
8:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and he's allowed to be a Homer.
8:48
[SPEAKER_01]: He, he honestly can Homer all he wants.
8:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm, I'm, I'm okay with that.
8:53
[SPEAKER_01]: When Indiana University signs your paycheck, um, I think you're allowed to Homer.
8:58
[SPEAKER_02]: You're supposed to be a bit of a Homer.
9:00
[SPEAKER_01]: right.
9:01
[SPEAKER_01]: The cult sign Matt Taylor's check.
9:03
[SPEAKER_01]: He can be a homer.
9:04
[SPEAKER_01]: They signed Bob Lamey's check.
9:06
[SPEAKER_01]: He could be a homer.
9:07
[SPEAKER_01]: But these guys who, you know, worked for a radio station and pledged their allegiance to one school that, you know, they didn't go to or, you know, have been calling their games for over 50 years.
9:20
[SPEAKER_01]: It gets a point where you can't do that and expect people to take you seriously.
9:26
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is a, this is coming from someone in me who's, who's in the business and sees it on a daily basis.
9:32
[SPEAKER_01]: And studies it.
9:34
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I said on that, but, and he is arguably the face of Indiana University Athletics.
9:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Not maybe not the face, but the voice, and when that dude is no longer here on this Earth one day, it's going to be a sad day because there are people who have gone their entire lives, actually, all of us here talking have gone our entire lives, not knowing anything other than Don Fisher
10:05
[SPEAKER_02]: 52 years old and that's how
10:07
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's funny because like they'll be crossover and the beginning of the basketball season and the end of the football season.
10:14
[SPEAKER_03]: So in the end, I'll go down to like Puerto Rico or one of those island events and fishers stay and back doing the bucket game and the guy who does the play by play for the radio broadcast for I use almost apologetic when he comes on air.
10:37
[SPEAKER_03]: John, it's just funny to hear someone be almost apologetic stepping into fishers role because that's just how good he is and how Sonana and the sea is with the program.
10:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, and talking here about circling back to the highs and now with Fernando Mendoza and everything, I want to get your thoughts my here on Diego Pavia, they're in Vanderbilt.
11:04
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you think?
11:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Should he have been there?
11:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Did he conduct himself in a way that a high student candidate should?
11:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I have my thoughts, but I want to hear yours first.
11:15
[SPEAKER_03]: This is not why somethings I feel like maybe recording something immediately after it happens isn't a good idea because I spent way too much time on the high school reaction on Saturday night saying, hey, Bobby, I may have told the family to tone it down a little bit because people are watching and he did.
11:33
[SPEAKER_03]: I won't get a Sunday realizing, yeah, that was wrong, that's not me.
11:37
[SPEAKER_03]: He's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he
11:58
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the fact that we had a job in our view for you.
12:01
[SPEAKER_03]: You're going to just should be the word the way you're acting right now.
12:04
[SPEAKER_03]: You're going to be more of a headache than the third certain coin box ever going to be worth.
12:09
[SPEAKER_03]: And this idiot, look, you lost, okay, sucks.
12:15
[SPEAKER_03]: You had a great season.
12:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Somebody else had a better season.
12:21
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry you're almost 30 years old and still in college and this is the peak of your life and you're now entering the enterprise when a co manager program that you're destined for but.
12:34
[SPEAKER_01]: His apology on Twitter might had to be AI right.
12:38
[SPEAKER_03]: That was any do they.
12:46
[SPEAKER_03]: He's one fire guy, I don't know if you know Rick Bowsich is brilliant.
12:49
[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't even found a guy down here in Louisville.
12:52
[SPEAKER_03]: He comes up the top room with maybe the tweet of the week and when Pavia tweets his apology and Bowsich comes in is like, this sounds like something you say when you're now, you're gonna work for somebody else on that.
13:07
[SPEAKER_03]: I love Rick.
13:10
[SPEAKER_03]: So he didn't know that I could, and everybody saw through what it was.
13:13
[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody saw what the way Pavia acted.
13:20
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey guys, I didn't want to say this directly after the Heisman trophy, but I just got to say we talked about a little bit the other day.
13:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Fernando Mendoza is not the best football player in the country.
13:32
[SPEAKER_02]: This was a team award.
13:35
[SPEAKER_01]: I actually do agree with that.
13:38
[SPEAKER_01]: The more I thought about it, the way everybody around the compal meditating, Julian
13:50
[SPEAKER_01]: better personality and performed better in clutch that's what yeah and Julian saying is gonna have probably another two or three years here too
14:01
[SPEAKER_01]: make up for that and he's probably going to be up there winning that award at some point.
14:05
[SPEAKER_01]: This is something that, yeah, Fernando Mendoza won, but this is more for the University, in my opinion.
14:12
[SPEAKER_01]: This is more for the football program, so you have guys that were finalists at one point like Anthony Thompson who finished runner up and Antoine Randalel who was a great player and just was not on a good enough of a team.
14:30
[SPEAKER_01]: You kind of have your doubts a little bit in the back of your mind.
14:34
[SPEAKER_01]: You're maybe thinking, yeah, I don't know if Mendoza will win it because of how people are going to vote.
14:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Like you said, my like the South's going to vote for Pavia.
14:45
[SPEAKER_01]: The Midwest is going to be torn on if they won't vote for Mendoza.
14:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Jeremiah love it.
14:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Notre Dame or Julian Sane at Ohio State.
14:53
[SPEAKER_01]: And then when you look at the final result, he blew that thing out of the water.
14:58
[SPEAKER_01]: It was not even close.
14:59
[SPEAKER_01]: He won 86% of all first-place votes from people.
15:06
[SPEAKER_01]: second highest vote total ever first place vote total ever there was no doubt on who was going to win this award and the other guys that thought were deserving to be there not pavia, but I thought say in and love were we're deserving to be there and so was pavia that's a whole lot of your discussion for another day, but
15:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that uh, again, this is a, this is an award for the program.
15:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Not just Fernando Mendoza, who does deserve this, but this is a lot for the program.
15:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I think.
15:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Now you kept ordering up.
15:44
[SPEAKER_03]: all these big, huge van quarterbacks are jumping in and the first school that you see mentioned crazy.
15:51
[SPEAKER_03]: A lot of these lists now in two seasons, the scouting staff at LZ, I've been winner in a high spin top 10 quarterback.
16:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Neither of which were highly recruited guys.
16:03
[UNKNOWN]: So
16:04
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think like Ray Ola came in the portal today.
16:08
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think her signal even takes up a phone if he calls.
16:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Because the circus that gains around him, we talked about whether here's on the state.
16:18
[SPEAKER_03]: He's going to have a huge price tag.
16:22
[SPEAKER_03]: People are going to be calling Indiana.
16:25
[SPEAKER_03]: It's whether or not at this point, who is Indiana going to accept the call from and wild to think that Indiana could maybe not even
16:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Because back four or five years ago, even actually maybe three or four years ago, actually.
16:41
[SPEAKER_01]: If Dylan Raiola wanted to call Indiana and come play football, their answer in the call and they're given that guy, they're throwing the entire kitchen sink at that dude.
16:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Just so if he's interested at playing it Indiana,
16:55
[SPEAKER_03]: What about the perfect example of this?
16:57
[SPEAKER_03]: You have sorority.
16:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, sure.
17:00
[SPEAKER_03]: He was spent two years in Bloomington.
17:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Almost, it's no secret that already negotiated his denial of the out of my year to go to Cincinnati before the bucket game was even over his sophomore year.
17:15
[SPEAKER_03]: He goes to Cincinnati.
17:17
[SPEAKER_03]: As a couple of pretty good years, not gonna say he was ever,
17:22
[SPEAKER_03]: elite, but he's a good quarterback.
17:24
[SPEAKER_03]: He did draft it if he went into the draft.
17:27
[SPEAKER_03]: And now the rumor is he's won to come back to Indiana to some degree.
17:31
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take access to all those considered his leader, but what the winner is like, hey, I'd be interested in coming back if you'd have me and it's up to Indiana to decide if they want to go with that round.
17:47
[SPEAKER_03]: They're
17:49
[SPEAKER_03]: two years ago.
17:50
[SPEAKER_03]: It's sort of he wanted to stay.
17:52
[SPEAKER_03]: He was staying.
17:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Now it's like, yeah, maybe we'll look.
17:58
[SPEAKER_01]: My question is now Mike, what do you do without Burdo?
18:02
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to transform whatever the coaching staff decides.
18:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I am to, I could see then landing this guy is Drew Mesta Maker from North Texas.
18:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Who is a good quarterback at North Texas.
18:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Indiana actually opens with North Texas this coming season or next season, I guess.
18:18
[SPEAKER_01]: The main green.
18:20
[SPEAKER_01]: They lost the North Texas one time on the road at North Texas.
18:24
[SPEAKER_03]: So it all then, yeah, Mesta Maker is a really interesting case because
18:31
[SPEAKER_03]: general consensus it'll probably stay with his coach and go to almost any but at the same time he's thinking, no sense coach, but I could maybe win the ice when if I go here.
18:44
[SPEAKER_03]: So in the end I was like, the school that people are like, yeah, I mean, if I'm some good enough to play their coach, I may have to leave you behind.
18:54
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's again, against the Oklahoma State.
18:57
[SPEAKER_03]: If you have any memory and all the insightful and the
19:00
[SPEAKER_03]: the winch area.
19:02
[SPEAKER_03]: You'd have never thought those two programs would ever be where they all right now.
19:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Alright, not much basketball talk tonight.
19:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Pretty slow week for the Hoosiers.
19:15
[SPEAKER_02]: They play Chicago State on Saturday.
19:17
[SPEAKER_02]: One of the worst teams on their schedule.
19:19
[SPEAKER_02]: But we will have a reaction after the game.
19:23
[SPEAKER_02]: As far as football goes, we'll be back next week with an IU report and a preview of, Indiana against either Alabama or Oklahoma in the Rose Bowl and guys, who scares you the most between the two of them and if I throw an Oregon as well, which teams most concern you about stopping the Hoosiers from getting deep into the tournament.
19:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Organ and Texas tech both really everyone.
19:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I do feel confident about whoever they're going to play in the Rose Bowl.
19:53
[SPEAKER_01]: We've seen Oklahoma have problems where their offense is struggled.
19:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Alabama is a team that we can sit here and talk all day on whether or not they should be even be in the playoff.
20:05
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not for us to decide.
20:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Indiana is going to obviously play whoever is
20:11
[SPEAKER_01]: is, you know, gonna win that game.
20:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel good about either one of them, but if they were to batch up with a organ again, that's gonna be tough.
20:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn landing knows how to motivate, he knows how to coach.
20:21
[SPEAKER_01]: They play Texas Tech, Texas Tech's defense is really freaking good.
20:25
[SPEAKER_01]: So Zindi Anas.
20:29
[SPEAKER_01]: it all concerns me because it's playoff football anything can happen.
20:33
[SPEAKER_01]: We saw what happened with the teams I got the buys last year.
20:37
[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't have as much momentum as the teams in the set ground.
20:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Now that the tournament is format a different where.
20:45
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the top four teams now.
20:47
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not the top four conference champions.
20:50
[SPEAKER_01]: That could play a factor like when you have Ohio State the eventual national champion playing in the first round when they probably should have been the one seed last year.
20:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Notre Dame, who is playing in the first round, has all this momentum and goes on this run.
21:04
[SPEAKER_01]: And these teams lose momentum as
21:09
[SPEAKER_01]: at least last year they lost momentum as time went on.
21:13
[SPEAKER_01]: So you can't overlook at Kurt Signetti and then know that I'm not concerned about them not having a game plan or anything or not knowing what they're doing because as he said this week here before they know their opponent is more typical walk through week kind of treat it like how you would and off week get in the weight room a little bit and get back to work and everything.
21:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Then after they know who wins that game, then they'll have all that time to prepare and through Christmas and then fly out to LA and play in that game, whether it's Oklahoma or Alabama.
21:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I think one advantage is that Indiana will not put this really matter, but they'll have one extra day of prep than the other teams where they're opponent plays Friday.
21:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm really looking forward to that game Friday, so the matter who Indiana plays, I feel
22:06
[SPEAKER_01]: down there in Atlanta, or going to Texas Tech either one of them really concerns me, even even Oklahoma and Alabama.
22:12
[SPEAKER_03]: So time will only tell, no, no, what are why Texas Tech is kind of becoming the most forgotten team in this thing.
22:24
[SPEAKER_03]: You've heard a lot about every team in this event except for Texas Tech, I feel like.
22:35
[SPEAKER_03]: First of all, they spend more money than maybe any team in this thing.
22:39
[SPEAKER_03]: They got that oil money and they spend it man on every sport, so they come to fight a powerhouse.
22:45
[SPEAKER_03]: But they only lost one game this year it was on the road against a telescope while playing out team from a year ago, Arizona State and it was without their starting quarterback.
22:56
[SPEAKER_03]: They can very well be the two or the three seed if they win that game.
23:00
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know why people are kind of overlooking them.
23:04
[SPEAKER_03]: And the other fun fact is their lineback or Rodriguez got more first place votes for the highs than the Julian saying.
23:13
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
23:14
[SPEAKER_03]: What's so crazy.
23:15
[SPEAKER_03]: And he didn't get invited to New York, but they put him in, they let him run some, you know, don't mind stuff.
23:23
[SPEAKER_03]: He's probably gonna be a first round NFL draft dude.
23:27
[SPEAKER_03]: whenever the time comes, pretty high in a first round and if I'll be extra happy again.
23:31
[SPEAKER_03]: So that team, I feel like they're just being completely overloading, completely overshadowed.
23:38
[SPEAKER_03]: No one's because they come out of the week 12 and people don't have a great level of respect through the week 12, but
23:45
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to be surprised if they if Oregon is favored when that game kicks off and taxes tech wins out, right?
23:54
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that team is overlooked and they scare me more than any team on that side of the bracket.
24:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Look, Indians can play Oklahoma or Alabama.
24:04
[SPEAKER_03]: That's two of the biggest five brands in college football, so it would be just ingenuous to sit here and say, Indian is just going to run them off the field.
24:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's the Rose Bowl.
24:15
[SPEAKER_01]: To win the Rose Bowl no matter like Lee Corso would say.
24:20
[SPEAKER_01]: or he, he told Chris Fowler to tell Fernando Mendoza the other night is that the Rose Bull is not the end of the rainbow now, but for Indiana fans to win the Rose Bull, especially to win a bull game for the first time since 1991 would mean the world to this program into these fans.
24:36
[SPEAKER_02]: But that's just the last thing I wanted to add, Mike, guys, Indiana is going to be playing either Alabama or Oklahoma in the freaking Rose Bull on New Year's Day.
24:47
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're probably going to be favored.
24:49
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a little bit favored, yeah.
24:54
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, in the 1967 game, they actually played O.J.
24:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Simpson.
25:01
[SPEAKER_03]: So they played a real college football tower.
25:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Did I do my old boomer man enough?
25:10
[SPEAKER_01]: The people who think that can kiss my backside.
25:14
[SPEAKER_03]: Pretty crazy, 60 minutes feature on IU football.
25:18
[SPEAKER_03]: In Grand U, you may know more than me.
25:19
[SPEAKER_03]: Apparently that guy is from Indiana.
25:21
[SPEAKER_03]: The guy that did the piece.
25:22
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, that makes sense.
25:24
[SPEAKER_03]: So apparently he's from like Evansville or something.
25:26
[SPEAKER_03]: OK, he's reading.
25:30
[SPEAKER_03]: I was kind of surprised that Gailing Klavio wasn't on that because he seems to be like the...
25:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Historian voice of Indiana football was some of these media segments that are popping up I figured he pop up on them.
25:48
[SPEAKER_03]: I actually like that guy.
25:50
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm on my gut got while he's cool hell.
25:52
[SPEAKER_03]: I listen to their pod a lot.
25:56
[SPEAKER_02]: As I mentioned, we will be back on Saturday to review.
26:00
[SPEAKER_02]: to react to I use aim against Chicago State.
26:04
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll be back next week all week.
26:07
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll be doing all kinds of cool stuff not only with Grant and Mike, but also with Eric and Ryan Robinson talking college football playoffs for the next couple of weeks.
26:16
[SPEAKER_02]: Not a lot of college basketball going on during this Christmas time.
26:18
[SPEAKER_02]: It's all about the college football.
26:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Central Indiana Sports Reports Project of ITG Media and I will see you soon.
