Transcript
- 0:00[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome Ball State Cardinal fans of the Central Indiana Sports Report for Cade Hampton's reaction to Ball State's 2014 win over Ohio on Saturday and Cade Middles the third quarter Nathan Voorhiss is putting on a show, but the Cardinal's offense has nothing to show for it
- 0:21[SPEAKER_00]: and suddenly they explode for 20 straight points and they have their first win of the max season 20 to 13 over Ohio.
- 0:28[SPEAKER_00]: Big win!
- 0:31[SPEAKER_01]: A really massive win for Ball State.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_01]: It really felt like something kind of shifted yesterday, especially after half time.
- 0:40[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they were underdogs going into this game.
- 0:43[SPEAKER_01]: I think that they were too touched down underdogs to Ohio at home.
- 0:47[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, Ohio, the Riding Mack Champions Ball State, in a very different place as a program.
- 0:53[SPEAKER_01]: to come out there and fight and claw back and win that game and win it in the fashion they did with the defense shutting out one of the conferences best offenses and offense to put together the clutch plays that they did was I think a huge win for football state and I think it's going to give them a lot of confidence going into the rest of the season and the rest of the max late 100%.
- 1:18[SPEAKER_00]: Kelly to Magwood that seems to be the answer that they have
- 1:23[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 1:24[SPEAKER_01]: I think I think Magwood entered that game.
- 1:26[SPEAKER_01]: He only had like four catches for 82 yards or something like that on the season.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, the offense had really kind of struggled to get the ball in his hands and yesterday there were a couple times where there was a play earlier in the game where Kelly hit him on a like a back shoulder throw and Magwood made a perfect play to just kind of come back to the ball and
- 1:48[SPEAKER_01]: uh... grab it his dick his his defense and back fell as soon as he tried to make the play and magwood got a nice little catch and run afterwards i don't think both they ended up scoring on that drive i think that was their drive right before halftime where they got stood up at the goal line but uh... yeah magwood at clutch play for him to just go up mosses defender like that come down keep his footing and
- 2:09[SPEAKER_01]: Walt's in the end zone in that moment with the game on the live was really awesome and you love to see it for those two guys who have been here Kyle and his fifth season at Ball State, magnitude in his sixth season at Ball State, both guys entered the portal this off season were not sure they were going to be back here and ultimately decided to return and for them to have that moment to get that first conference win was was really cool to see
- 2:36[SPEAKER_00]: And then it was Magwood who set up the winning play, too.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_00]: Without his play earlier in the game, they probably don't, it don't win on that one either.
- 2:45[SPEAKER_01]: He was great.
- 2:47[SPEAKER_01]: I think he finished with 92 yards and a touchdown catch, so definitely his best game of the season so far.
- 2:54[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's a big play in the second quarter that ended up kind of going for nothing.
- 2:58[SPEAKER_00]: They ended up not scoring after he had a big play, so.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, that that first that drive right before halftime I thought was really going to come back to bite him I honestly like because they were set to get the ball back in the second half and
- 3:12[SPEAKER_01]: They were down 14 oh and they hadn't put anything together offensively in the first half they had before that last drive before halftime I think they had less than 50 or 60 total yards off and so that last drive before halftime I think it went 71 yards and got all the way down to the one yard line but they just got backed up and went for it on fourth down there and didn't get it so what called a bill for it I thought.
- 3:36[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I thought it was an interesting call.
- 3:39[SPEAKER_00]: I was, I don't know, just when kicked the field, gold, just to say, let's get on the board.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought he thought we need seven here, and he was probably right, but.
- 3:49[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I just have a, let's go for it out of tune, either.
- 3:54[SPEAKER_01]: Even if you don't wait, that's how they scored their first touch down too.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_01]: They were right down there in the red zone.
- 3:59[SPEAKER_01]: It was fourth and short again, and it was funny.
- 4:03[SPEAKER_01]: They had been running Kelly quite a lot on the design like QB runs, and Ohio was really stuffing them down there on that drive.
- 4:12[SPEAKER_01]: So up in the press box, me and a couple of the other guys were talking.
- 4:15[SPEAKER_01]: And we were like,
- 4:16[SPEAKER_01]: You got to try something you got a roll Kelly out and let him throw it or you got to try and hand it off to somebody on a reverse I was like these runs at the middle.
- 4:22[SPEAKER_01]: They're kind of key and end on those and so when I got to force down and They went forward again and he just took it right up the middle powered through found his gap and then
- 4:32[SPEAKER_01]: Carried some guys in the end zone for the touchdown.
- 4:34[SPEAKER_01]: So we were just laughing at that point.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_01]: I was just like that's that's why I'm in the box and because she was on the sideline calling the plays I mean he just kept trying it and eventually it powered punch through so that touched down by Kelly definitely gave him some momentum and then The offense didn't score another touchdown until really that game winner by Magwood because they managed another field goal drive
- 5:01[SPEAKER_01]: Wasn't really anything the defense did.
- 5:03[SPEAKER_01]: It was a set up by a perfect punt by the special teams Adam saw Booter 1's 62 yards right to the half yard line And oh, hi, oh, I think it was like their second or third fumbled snap that just fell down in the end zone and Couldn't really do much about it from there.
- 5:19[SPEAKER_01]: So they uh, yeah, handed ball state 2 points and And the ball which ball statement even score after that safety drive.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_01]: It was
- 5:28[SPEAKER_00]: the next drive where they got, they finally got Magwood in the end zone, but yeah, just a really great game by all three phases and Kelly was great too, but of course we need to talk about Nathan Vores, who is now leading the nation in sacks and I came into the game one of the top and then had four more yesterday and was
- 5:58[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, vores is just an absolute beast.
- 6:01[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I said it in the spring.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_01]: I was, there was a spring practice I went to, and there were like three plays in a row where he got to Kelly twice and then battered down a ball.
- 6:10[SPEAKER_01]: And I was, say this guy is just different.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_01]: He just brings so much juice, so much energy off the edge.
- 6:17[SPEAKER_01]: defenses have to be aware of where he is at all times.
- 6:20[SPEAKER_01]: And he showed that yesterday.
- 6:22[SPEAKER_01]: He really got after it.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_01]: I think there was that second sack where he he absolutely leveled Navarro the Ohio quarterback.
- 6:31[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't think Navarro was really the same after that hit.
- 6:34[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think he was
- 6:35[SPEAKER_01]: necessarily like injured or or can custer something but he just took an absolute lick and after that clay it really seemed like he was playing a lot more a lot more tin at a lot more kind of resource folder.
- 6:48[SPEAKER_01]: Voorhees was really he's a beast and he's he should win probably Mac defensive player the week for that and would not surprise me if that's not his last Mac player the week or he might even be if he keeps things going at this rate he might even be a contender for the Mac defensive player the year I mean obviously it's a long season to go don't want to put you know high expectations but the guy keeps playing like this leading the country in sacks I mean
- 7:19[SPEAKER_00]: And it kind of changes the outlook a little bit, not that you think Ball State's gonna start running the table and win in all these Matt games.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_00]: But to have a defensive player who's that much of an impact player gives you hope going into almost every game, not that you're gonna win them all.
- 7:34[SPEAKER_00]: Speaking of which, at Western Michigan next week, it seems like a tough one.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_00]: They're playing really well.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_00]: And then Akron is always a pretty good program as well.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_00]: So, normal, I can't stay Eastern Michigan Toledo Miami.
- 7:48[SPEAKER_00]: No reason to think that you can't be and almost all those games at the very least.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_01]: Like you said, after beating the raining conference champ, it's pretty clear that in this conference, especially where there's such small margins, it feels like a lot of the time and a lot of the games are crazy coming down to the wire.
- 8:06[SPEAKER_01]: Ball State, I think they proved yesterday that they have a defense that is going to help them compete and be in every single mad game.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, if not for big place, it was, yeah, not the most, not the most efficient performance offensively.
- 8:29[SPEAKER_01]: The running backs also kind of, kind of struggle to get going.
- 8:32[SPEAKER_01]: Clay Ashley I know was hurt.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_01]: He went down kind of early in the game and was kind of limited the rest of the way, but TJ Horton had some really, really nice runs that he put on tape.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, I think that's more carrier probably.
- 8:43[SPEAKER_01]: Kelly obviously is such a threat with his legs and they're going to use that as much as they can.
- 8:48[SPEAKER_01]: So it's definitely going to be a run heavy offense, no matter what, but I think, yeah, the defense.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, even on those days with offenses and clicking at 100% that that defense is going to be able to keep games close, keep them alive.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_01]: And if they can shut down in offense like Ohio's with Navarro and the level of experience that they have,
- 9:10[SPEAKER_01]: that defense can really give anybody in the max and headaches I think so it'll be interesting to see kind of how they handle it the rest of the way obviously they got to stay healthy
- 9:19[SPEAKER_01]: got to just yeah keep the main thing the main thing and especially after a win like that a big upset win over the rain conference champs you don't want your heads to get too big you don't want to to get complacent I know that was something that coach you was really big on in the post game press conference he wanted to see if that team could you know come in today and just focus on the film and
- 9:41[SPEAKER_01]: make sure they treat it just like any other day and turn their attention to Western Michigan.
- 9:45[SPEAKER_01]: So you mentioned that Western Michigan team is playing really good.
- 9:49[SPEAKER_01]: They got a big win over Toledo a couple weeks ago and that'll be interesting.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be interesting to see how Ball State handles the road in the Mac.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_01]: Because they haven't won on the road.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_01]: They're both their wins or at home.
- 10:01[SPEAKER_01]: Almost beat UConn on the road week before last.
- 10:04[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll see how they handle the Broncos, but they should have all the confidence in the world.
- 10:10[SPEAKER_01]: after that went over Ohio 100%.
