• 2:18
  Speaker 1: won't take no for an answer. Spreads on stats coming
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: up brought to us by commonly CPA group, providing value
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: beyond numbers. All right, so let's jump on in. As
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a Brad oftentimes, Oh, the other one isn't here either yet,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: it's gone. I might not be coming back. Really, we
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: have been gone a while.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I give you back. I think keep rolling along. Maybe
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: some day he'll walk back through the door. I think
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: he's going to be back.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Now, you don't. Don't say he might not, because people
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: get all bummed out, like where's where's obvious? Hot? He's
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: coming back? He'll be here, he might. I don't know
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: if we'll see him this week when we do our
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: second show, but he'll be back next week. I think
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: you'll say it this week. No, he's gonna he's going
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: to the Arizona State game.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: That's why I heard that.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, a bunch of college buddies is going out
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: to the Arizona State Game. I want to live his life,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: all right, So, as Brad oftentimes says, you are allowed
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to improve during the course of a season, and we
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: will admit, quite honestly, at one point, you know, especially
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: coming out of the UCF game, it did not look
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: like the improvement when becoming this year, right like maybe
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: next year. But suddenly the Mountaineers played well against TCU,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: not well enough to win, then had the big win
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: at Houston, and then come back here this past weekend
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: and the Colorado Buffaloes the opposition, and you kind of
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: went like, can you put two together? Can you do it? So?
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Rich has his first two game winning streak since coming
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: back to West Virginia, and the Mountaineers knock off Colorado
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: in an interesting game for a bunch of different reasons.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: But guess what, you got two to go. It's the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: tenth of November, and dare we say that mathematically they've
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: got Bowl eligibility opportunities, right, if you get to six,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: you're bowling. Well, obviously they're going to be an underdog
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: in each of the next two games this Saturday against
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Arizona State and then the following couple of weeks after
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: that the Thanksgiving weekend here against Texas Tech. Going to
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: be an underdog, but nevertheless, to me, the good thing is,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: and you saw this in Rich's very first year here,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: even though that team only won three games, if you
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: look at the scores in that season, they were getting closer.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: They were getting closer throughout the course of the season.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I think we're starting to see that now well, going
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: to see that.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: It's two parts you mentioned that we always see. You're
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: allowed to get better. That's number one, first and foremost.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: I think we always need to remember that at number two.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: The other line, we used lots of week to week
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: business and so sometimes your matchups get favorable at different
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: parts of the season. In West Virginia had a tough
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: opening part of this schedule, wasn't ready necessarily to go
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: head to head with some of the teams they got
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: early BYU and Utah, namely for two of them. But
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: now switch it around. You got some nice situations. We
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: talked about the situational advantage you walked into against a
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: ranked Houston team. I thought you got another one this week,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: even though you were off a big win and had
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: to protect against a letdown. You're at home against a
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Colorado program that had really been struggling, and it was
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: making a quarterback change right you had already made yours
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and had a couple games under your belt to get
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Scottie Fox acclimated. And so we talked so much on
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: Thursday about the two freshman quarterback, true freshman quarterback going
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: at it, and I thought you saw Juju Lewis in
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: the second half in particular, kind of settle down there,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: and you saw why he was so highly doubted. I
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: think he's got some clear skills and he's going to
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: be a problem in this league. He stick in this league,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: but you.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Al mean by that? What do you mean? Well? Should
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: he stick in this one?
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know if anybody sticks anymore? I mean he's a
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: free agent after the year. Everybody's a free agent. He
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: might not be in the league. He might go somewhere else.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: He was supposed to go to USC. Then he changes
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: command and went to college. You can't give me back.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Two more weeks in the season. I don't know where
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: I'll be next year.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Who knows.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: I just know this. West Virginia absolutely got after him early.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: That pressure was there. We'll get into that. Unspreads on stats,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: and he looked like a true freshman in his first
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: start in a road environment that oh by the way.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: Credit to the fans. Nice job showing up with fifty
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: thousand plus in that stadium. That was a difficult start
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: for Juju Lewis. West Virginia jumps out to the lead
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: and controlled that game throughout. So situation. I thought West
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Virginia had another good situation and it took advantage of
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: that able to stack another win. And you're right now
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: you're staring down the barrel of a chance to go
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: win your fifth game with a chance to win a
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: sixth still looming ahead. Both will be difficult as you outlined.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: But Arizona State, another situational spot, has to kick off
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: at eleven am local time, and they're without their starting quarterback,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: so they're coming in with a number two. So interesting
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: setup as you head to Arizona this week.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: They may have a receiver that's really good who West
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Virginia is looking at closely, going like is he playing
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: or not? Right? Tyson? Very good, a really really good,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: great build, good just he's a problem.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Might be one of the best in the league, if
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: not the best.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Compare them to the Arizona receiver from a year McMillan.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: McMillan not quite as big. Yeah, but that kind of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: a guy that can dominate and change it. Yes, so
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: they'll keep their eye on that as well. So first
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: things first, we'll talk more about the Arizona State matchup
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: coming up. Maybe the first ever Big twelve encounter because
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: we didn't play him last year. Yeah, it'll be the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: first time that West Virginia has a lead. Why wouldn't
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: you have a league game against Arizona State, I mean
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: why in.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: The same year that he also played BYU in Utah.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: It makes all that makes all the sense in the world.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: You know, I did bury the lead there a little,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: but I forgot to mention. I meant to lead with
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: this that this Colorado game was a nice kickoff to
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: the Curtis Jones for Heisman campaign. They often discuss Curtis
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Jones two rushing touchdowns for the young man from CABLL Midland,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what that first one that was
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: all Curtiss Jones mean, he had to hit the four.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: He hit the four and then again at the three
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: and busted his way through there. So all joking aside
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: with how much attention that got when Rich mentioned it earlier,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: that was a nice addition there. He ran hard, look good,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: look comfortable. Yeah, bangs you in two touchdowns.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Those are the carries that ty Edwards would be getting
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: if he were still healthy. That's the big thing that
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: West Virginia had been missing. Tyler Jacklich, who's also a
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: big back, was injured and he was out of the game,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: and so they went with Curtis Jones. If I'm Curtis,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I call it a career as far as running the
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: ball right now and end my career as the highest
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: percentage of touchdowns with limited carries three carries, two touchdowns.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: That's highest percentage work school history.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I'm on the other side. Get him in there and
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: give him the ball.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I like this. You know what, he's a really good kid, too.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Great kid, great smile, engaging, very good interviews.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Heard his post game. Yeah, you know, he's in the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: fifth quarter program, so he got stuff going on.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Those are elite dudes in that fifth quarter program. That's
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: just not everybody gets into that thing exactly right, rigorous processing.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: So he's got he's got everything lined up. He's playing
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: really good football. And that was huge. I mean two tds.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: It's and I give them credit. The quarterback on the
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: running back position specifically, it's the old coach cliche of
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: next man up. We're not worried about injuries, we're next
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: man up. Well, those two positions have certainly shown that,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: haven't they, Because now to the point with Scotty Fox,
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: we don't even talk about Fox anymore. Now you just
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: go and expect him to play well. That veteran Scottie
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Fox absolutely just goes in there and wins you the game.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: He's the veteran quarterback there plays well.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: It is interesting how that brand new perception of him
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: as a true freshman, it just melts like really super quick,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: like yeah, he goes to Houston, he wins at Houston,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: and like, I just think our perception is like most
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Scotty Fox is quarterback and what do you mean what
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: can he do? Now? Just go ahead. He just plays
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: every day.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: He's a shoting quarterbacks. We're not debating it. We're not
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: questioning it. We're not saying, oh my gosh, are you
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: in the portal looking for just Scotty Fox are starting quarterback?
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Go what he got? Scotty?
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah? You know who. I want to give some more
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: love to de or Hubbard.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Agree, Let's think think about another next man up
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: at the running back position.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Think about this. He dnp CD first three games this
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: season and didn't even travel to Ohio, wasn't even on
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: the travel team for Ohio. And then he gets hurt
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Saturday early and it didn't look good and not look good,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: and guess what, he wasn't healthy the whole game, like
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: you could see him walking around there just kind of
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: he was playing through pain. And he ends up sixteen
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: totes for sixty four and then he had that huge
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: reception of sixty nine catches six balls for ninety four yards.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: So he had twenty two touches in the game, and
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: give him a.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Lot of love led you in rushing and receiving yards.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Correct?
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Did you have that on our over under in August?
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Did not thought? Sincere Bauers ran hard, Jeff Wimer continues
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: to come up with significant plays. He had two catches
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: for twenty six yards with a long of fifteen.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: So that was a big one on fourth down. Oh,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: that was a nice play. That's one of those that
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: was not overly tricky. That's just boom in and a
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: little slant and the throw was right on the money.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: A contested catch by Wine. We're strong enough to hold on.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: Wish she had him for a little longer. I like him.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: He is starting to play.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: You can't because he's going to get his a file
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: for AARP coming up here shortly. I know he's a
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: little older.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I know then he's been he's starting to play though.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: I like h Yeah, absolutely. I'm happy for him because
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: he had to go through the eligibility thing this season
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: in order to get on the field. So I'm hoping
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: he's having a good time here with his experience. All right,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: So nothing obvious as far as a Hoppies obvious observations
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: since he's not here, so we might as well just
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: get down to the brass tacks. Just keep this in mind.
• 11:51

• 12:00
  Speaker 1: no for an answer. Jan Dill's attorneys at law a

  Speaker 2: Well, the first thing we said on Thursday, who wins
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: the rush explosive matchup? This was a Colorado Rush team
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: rush game that came in ninety fourth percentile in rush
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: explosive percentage, So they weren't running it at a great
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: clip down to down, but they were popping big plays
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: on the ground. You were getting a West Virginia defense.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: It was eighteenth nationally in opponent rush success rate. So
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: we'd seen that Western defense pop back up and start
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: to play pretty well. Well, what happened in this one, Tony,
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: West Virginia held Colorado to zero explosive rushing place zero.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: What's that definition? What do you have to have for
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: an explosion? Well, it depends on this. This one's usually
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: like fifteen yards or more on that. Okay, held them
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: to zero big plays on the ground, held Colorado to
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: a negative EPA per rush, and held them to just
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: a thirty five percent success rate, which is below average
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: running the football. So that right there, you just boom
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: right in, held them to no giant rushing plays, didn't
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: break any for big long touchdowns, and you held them
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: below average in a success rate and an EPA perspective.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Great job stopping the run. That was going to lead
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: into the next key. I'll get to that here in
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: just a second. But within that first matchup on the
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: running game, we flipped it around also and said that
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: West Virginia's going to want to run it on a
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: Colorado defense that's dead last in the Big twelve in
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: rush yards per game. Now, West Virginia didn't run it
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: as well as I thought they might. One hundred and
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: sixty seven yards on the ground, not bad below thirty
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: yards or so below what Colorado had been giving up,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: just three point two yards per carry, But you did
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: run for positive EPA expected points added. So that was
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: good forty five percent rush success rate, a tad below average,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: but better than what West Virginia had been running it
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: on the season. And remember, just to recap that success
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: rate is if you gained forty percent of the needed
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: yards on first down, that's a successful play. If you
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: then gain sixty percent of the needed yards on second down,
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: that's a successful play. And if you get one hundred
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: percent of those needed yards for a first down or
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: touchdown on third or fourth down, that's a successful play.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: So that's where success rate comes from. So West Virginia
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: was above where it normally had been all year. So
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: rushing game matchup, West Virginia won that on both sides
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: of the ball. Number two. Our key was the Colorado
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: pass offense against West Virginia's pass rush, and we said,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: if you could hold that explosive run game, in check.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: That gave you a chance with a true freshman quarterback
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: in Juju Lewis, to get some pressure and potentially light
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: them up. Colorado's pass grade was thirteenth in the Big
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: twelve as an offense. Going against West Virginia's pass rush
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: that was eighth. Well, what happened to that game, Tony?
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: They got after the quarterback tons of sacks early to
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: the number, finish with seven or eight. So yeah, seven
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: in the game, sixteen tackles for loss. West Virginia's defense
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: in pass rush in particular was outstanding early and you
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: could tell flustered the true freshman quarterback. Dion talked about
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: it afterwards, probably held the ball a little bit too
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: long early, as true freshmen often do. And the tone
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: of that game was set early. And again I mentioned
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: I think Lewis is going to be fantastic. He showed
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: really some talent throwing the football down the field once
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: he got settled, but West Virginia was already out to
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: that lead. Here's a big number. West Virginia had a
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: HAVOC rate of thirty five percent. That put West Virginia
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: for that game in the ninety ninth percentile nationally in
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: havoc rate, So sack, tackle for loss, pass defended, some
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: sort of play that creates havoc on the other side.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: And that is zach Ally's calling card, right, so his
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: whole philosophy and people know him for creating havoc and
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: a lot of pressure. That's his defense. To a tee.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: That number jumped to forty four percent of all Colorado
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: plays on passing plays. So again, it played out exactly
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: as you thought. Control the run, make them have to
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: throw the football, and then get after the true freshman
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: quarterback when that happened. Third key, we talked about West Virginia.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Are they able to have success throwing it when it
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: was needed? And we mentioned how Scotty had been so
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: good the last two weeks not only no turnovers, but
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: zero turnover worthy plays. Going into that game, we talked
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: about the worst coverage gade grade in the in the
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: conference came from Colorado, So could you line up and
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: beat them through the air? Scotty not bad. Seventeen of
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: twenty eight sixty one percent completion percentage, threw for more
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: than two hundred yards. Again, had the one touchdown pass
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: two interceptions there, one of them came on fourth down.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: If I'm not mistaken, So that doesn't hurt you because
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: you got him throw it up anyway, And was the
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: other one tipped yes, because I was gonna sa if
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: it wasn't certainly looked like it. So two I and t's.
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: He gets one turnover worthy play on there, but again
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: neither of those were necessarily detrimental to you winning. He
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: still had the third best offensive grade of any player
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: for West Virginia. So another really good day for West
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Virginia's true freshman Scotty Fox. Some other numbers to look at.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: I went back and pulled the win probability added. What
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: were the biggest plays in this game? From just a
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: pure statistical standpoint, what added the most win probability to
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: West Virginia's winning total.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: I like these ones.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Number one play now, Now, remember last week there were
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: some massive plays. There was a nearly forty percent swing
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: on the pick six. There was another thirty seven percent
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: swing on the Wimer big fifty three yarder. This one,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: it did not have the swings, mostly because West Virginia
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: controlled this game pretty much from the start. The number
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: one swing play ten percent added win probability. Curtis Jones
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: first touchdown run. Yeah, number two almost ten percent, nine
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: point eight percent win probability, added Scotty Fox to Dior
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Hubbard on that aforementioned sixty nine yard wheel route, big
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: pass play. So those two plays right there added almost
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: twenty percent.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Year win probability.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: We're good, so pretty good those year two yards. And
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: I pulled this out because during that losing streak, some
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: of those numbers, I was just incredulous about how many
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: available yards West Virginia's opponents were gaining on them on
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: the defense. It was just such a surprise because coming
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: out of the pit game that West Virginian defense had
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: looked pretty good, as it has the last three weeks. Well,
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: you're back to a good number there. Colorado only gained
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: thirty eight percent of the yards available to its offense
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: during the day, So again number that backed up what
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: you saw on the field. Another big special teams play,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: first block punt since twenty fourteen. Israel Boyce got in
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: there and knocked one down first one, says Jared Harper
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: had it back in twenty fourteen. So it's a couple
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: weeks in a row. Now you've seen a turnover forced
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: on a punt return. West Ray's punt unit got a
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: turnover and then gets a block punt there. So don't
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: want to pass off the good performances without mentioning that
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: one mm.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Hmm had a penalty on a return though right, penalty
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: on of return to talk to someone over there yesterday
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: and they just said they were just like they literally
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: just grown. I can't believe it. Said we didn't have
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: any last year, didn't have any, and they just come
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: and they just come in bunches. And that's why, that's why,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: that's why pac Man, pac man just he just lifts
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: his hand up. Theyah, that all comes up.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: There. A couple of defensive performances we mentioned of the
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: offensive performances and Hubbard and Jones that were really good.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: How about Ben Bogel, He was really good. He was
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: he called his name a bunch.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: He may have been angry. Do you think you think
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: he might have played it? He said he was very
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: he was he was hitting people very very hard. I
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: mean he was hitting people. He's a saluki, you know,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: transferred in from southern Illinois, and uh played the heck
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: of a game, really physical.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: Two sacks, seven tackles. So you called a bunch. He
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: called Reid Karako's name a lot too. Two sacks for
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: Reid as well, two notable defensive performances. How about Nate
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Flower continues to be impressive? Huh, continues to be really impressive.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: He's a he's a polar barriers sirmunt senior. Just can
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: tinues just just it's a factory. Just when you thought
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: that pipeline had slowed a little bit, Flower.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Nate Flower just kind of bangs it into
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: the end zone. Oliver Straw average forty two, long of
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: fifty three and just solid there. And uh, how about
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: that missed extra point? Don't get to see that often.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: That young man had twenty four in a row. So
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: they said, take a look at them. They missed an
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: extra point and get a pumpline. That's hard to How
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: many times do we say, hey, got to find a
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: way to get the check mark on special teams and win.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: And they did a couple just last PFF grade things
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: here that I just find interesting. Back to our point
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: earlier about Scottie Fox. Now, you know you don't jump
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: up and down like, oh, look at the true freshman.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: You just say, yeah, Sky Fox, your quarterback is playing well.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Third fourth best pass grade so overall passing offense, everything
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: included fourth best pass grade on the season against FBS opponents,
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: three of those in the last three weeks. Three or
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: top four are in the last three weeks. Your past
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: block is the Veterans third best pass blocking grade against
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: power four competition came this week. Two of those three
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: in the last three weeks. Those two things are linked together.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: I realized you said that Fox had the third best
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: individual grade? Who was one and two? Standby he's affording
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: as we speak.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: What'd you want to know? Offense?
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: First?
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: Sure, the aforementioned Heisman candidate Curtis Jones number one was
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: just three snaps? Yeah, great, up, pretty high start, two touchdowns,
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: go with it, Ty Keys Crawford number two. How about
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: that total offensive grade? Grade out well in the run blocking?
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Nick Cray three, Ryan Ward four, Christian Hamilton five HASLM six.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: You don't why you played well three? Your top six
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: were offensive line.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, you don't talk a lot
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: about offensive line, right. Nick Cray has had a very
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: good season.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: He's a keeper's He's what you wanted.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: He's gonna be a guy that's gonna play throughout his career.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Here and He's gonna be a really good player. He's
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: a great building block. Land in Livingston, that center spot.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: You got a couple of guys there, right, Donovan Haslam
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: just you got your You're starting to put some starting
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: to play, starting to put some pieces down there that
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: you can build a little bit of a house defense.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Derek Carter one, Michael Coats two, Ben Cutter three, Bogel four,
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: John Lewis five, Fred Perry six.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: What was that deal with Fred Perry's knee brace?
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Is that what the first play was? While they pulled
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: him out.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: And guy came over there. I mean, look, it looked like,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: you know, he was getting searched at customs. That guy
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: goes down there and takes a look at the brace
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: and sends him off the field. That I wonder why
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: that happened like that, Like we don't do that before
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: the game. Officials are out there kind of looking at
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: that stuff before the game starts.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: Must have missed it. Ben Bogel led in that stop
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: stat that we talked about constitutes a failure for the offense.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: He had four of them, four failures. Fred Perry right
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: there at three.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, there's some numbers. Do you want to transition
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: this right into basketball now, so the Mountaineers continue to
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: play as many games as the Globetrotters to start the season.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: Just play every night, play every night. You know. I
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: talked to a guy recently. I don't know if I
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: could Yeah, I guess I could say this. He was
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: he was the PA announcer for the Globetrotters. Did he
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: travel with them all around the world, around the world?
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: And I said to him, they ever get beat? And
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: he said he said, they were, like, I don't know,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: like some foreign country. And technically technically they missed, they
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: screwed something other than it had to a little had
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: to do a little side of counting. They're just kind of, oh, really,
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: oh there we go. Now, it's that's right. They know
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: the guys loss. Yeah, yeah, do you know that those
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: guys Globe Tries like you think like, oh, they're just
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: on the Globe Tries are going to stand the Globe
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: Tritters like if they miss like a certain number of shots,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: that's their specialty, like the half court shot from from
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: you know, off a hook or like certain dunks. Like
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: they keep they keep stats like if like if you
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: don't if you are supposed to do the wobbly ball,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Like the wobblely ball goes in the sand, like demerit, demerit,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: like you gotta you gotta.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Play like got advanced analytics there for that.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you don't do the thing like if yeah,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you run in the stands and
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: you got like you're supposed to have the confetti bucket,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: but you got the water bucket and you hit the
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: wrong person. I mean, it's like you're out of here.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: It's a fascinating conversation with the guy. Fascinating. I'll tell
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: you this. Globe Trotters stay at the nice hotel. Generals,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: they're in a motel, and you're on a whole different bus.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: You're in a whole different bus.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Anyway, they're not the show.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: No, I may have gone off topic there. West Virginia
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: sixty nine, Lehigh forty seven, best stretch of ball by
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: the Mountaineers so far this season. In the first half,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: it was kind of like everything clicked. We talked with
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Ross before the game yesterday, said, now, what you're trying,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: what I'm trying to do, is when you get into
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: a good segment of play, we're trying to elongate that
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: segment of play, well, it might be Hey, that was
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: four good minutes of basketball there. Now now our success
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: is going to be determined by how long we can
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: stretch out the goods and how long we can how
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: quickly we can reduce the bats. And yesterday for that,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: I guess we just generically say fifteen minutes that was
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: humming along.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: Defensive offense really good. That's where I wanted to start here.
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: Best half of the year held Lee hid eight made
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: field goals there in the first half and then shot
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: West Virginia shot fifty four percent from the field and
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: forty two percent from three, So, yes, things were clicking.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: They were absolutely clamping down defensively and then making shots offensively.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: Saw that goes West Ring was up by what as
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: many as I think twenty seven was the largest lead there.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: So that's that's exactly where you wanted to be in
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: your third game of the week, and again you saw
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: some improvement along the way in every fast of that game.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: Be low again. Brennan Laurent was outstanding career high twenty
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: six points, seven rebounds, three steals to assist averages if
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: you round up a double double for the week nine
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: point seven rebounds. Round that up to ten rebounds a week,
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: double double through three games. One of the better performances
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: of anybody in the Big twelve this week. So congratulations
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: to be Low for being outstanding there. Free throw attempt
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: rate was something that all week has been good, and
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: it was really good again yesterday. West Virginia gets to
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: the twenty five times, made sixteen of those. So you'd
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: like that percentage to be up a little bit. Sixty
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: four percent. West Virginia is seventy four percent now from
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: the line. On the year, this.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: Stat, West Virginia is seventy four percent of the FOE.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: Knew you'd be surprised. And here's the other thing that
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: threw me off. Here's the other thing that threw me off.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Hold on, let's just.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: You're gonna come to rebounding and now and you're going
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: to tell me that they're doing better at rebounding than
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: I think. Go ahead, lay it out.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: No, it's it's a long free throws. Because this surprised me.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: And I've had multiple people say to me, I hope
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: that free throw shooting gets better. I hope it gets better.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: You ready for this? Yeah, this is gonna this. I
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: think you'll fall off your chair on this. So west
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Ringer shot seventy four percent from the line last year.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: That won't make you fall off your chair. Shot seventy
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: four percent last year.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what you're shooting this year. That's surprising.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Okay, this will really surprise you. The best free throw
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: percentage for a West Virginia team I could find going
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: all the way back.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: I didn't.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: I couldn't get back in the database past ninety seven.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: The best free throw percentage since then was seventy three
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: percent in two thousand and five. This is currently the
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: best free throw shooting West Virginia team since at least
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: might be further back than ninety seven. Can that be right? No,
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: somebody's got those stats wrong. Yes, that's what I thought.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: No freaking way, let's tell you what the database said
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: that I was looking at.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Something's that? What database are you using?
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: Pretty reputable one?
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: It doesn't seem right?
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Wait, no I am off. Yeah, but it's seventy two
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: percent is what they're shooting. I was off a little bit.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: I would even still takes it back. I mean you
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: got to go back to five.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: See, I'm even questioning seventy two. You're sure, No, it's
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: the men's team you're going to doing, not.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: The ways off totally, I'm totally off, I thoughts. Sixty
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: eight percent.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking at it right now, point six to
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: seven eight. For those of you listening in, just scrap
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: everything we never find and as you could tell, we
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: don't go back and edit anything out of the show.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: We're very yet, so I'll.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Wait too fast this morning, sorry everybody. Sixty eight percent.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: Here's what happened to you opposing teams for seventy four.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: That's correct.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: The world champions right now are six seven eight, so
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: we'll call it sixty eight. But nevertheless, that's correct. There's
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of room for improvement there.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: But here's here's the number that here's the number that
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: you should pay attention to. Fortieth nationally and free throw
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: attempt rate and so during during the Hugs era, during
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: the really good teams, West Virginia, if you remember, was
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: always very highly ranked in free throw attempt rate, got
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: to the line a lot.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: Correct.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: That's a number. We'll have to keep watching that because
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: it's it makes sense that you're getting the line so
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: much now because you've had you have a decided size
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: advantage inside with Harlan and Brandon Laurent. That the teams
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: you're playing right now these first three games have had
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: trouble matching those guys, and West Virginia has been going
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: inside a lot. They've had trouble handling them getting to
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: the free throw at a bunch, So keep an eye
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: on that. Can West Virginia continue to get to the
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: line at a high rate. Twenty eight percent of West
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: Virginia's points this season have come from the line. That's
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: sixtieth nationally.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Some numbers here for you. And defensively, this is what
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: West Virginia will be come going forward with Ross Hodge
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: as the head coach. Right now, very encouraging. They're holding
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: opposing teams to thirty six percent shooting overall, twenty six
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: percent from three point range. The first massive test obviously
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: is coming up here on Thursday, and all eyes should
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: be focused to see how well they can guard when
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: they play a power four team.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So to continue on, that's where I was going next.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: Top forty nationally an opponent effective field goal percentage that's
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: a little different than regular field goal percentage takes account
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: and it takes three pointers into account. That are obviously
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: worth more so top forty in that category. You like
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: what you're doing defensively, your forty first nationally and opponent
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: turnover percentage, we know West Virginia is making hey off
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: its turnovers. It's created so good first week. Certainly room
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: to improve, but it's a good start and it's right
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: where you want to be after three games with Pitt
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: coming in, and you're right, this will be a nice
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: test against a Panther team that has not played in
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: an environment like it's about to see and goes on
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: the road here for the first time.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Correct limited number of tickets are available as of yesterday
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: there were a couple three four hundred, and obviously it's
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: going to be very close to being locked out. And
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: I think you're right, it's going to be new for everyone,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: all the Mountaineer basketball players, the Mountaineer coaching staff, totally
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: new environment for them. Although the crowds have been decent,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: solid for your first couple of games, now you're going
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: to get into a capacity at the Hope Coliseum. That
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: changes things. And then additionally, as you said, I mean,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Pitt is basically a reconstituted team and they hadn't been
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: here two years now. What impact will that have on
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: the game. Should be a ton of fun. If you're
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: watching the Mountaineers in person, if you're watching the Mountaineers
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: at home. Brad and I strong strong advocates for hydration. Right.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: You want people, You want people to be hydrated when
• 34:17

• 35:11
  Speaker 1: some victories.
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: Huh, I watched that Baylor game last night. They've got
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: an entirely new team.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Too, literally, every player, every player.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: West Virginia is not in that group of three by
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: a technicality, I guess because Ab because Ab returned. Yeah,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: there's three teams that replaced their whole roster per the
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: broadcast last night. Western not mentioned in that. But that's
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: a tough one for a guy that didn't play a
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: sentlemen in red shirted.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Nevertheless, we know what the deal is. Yeah. So
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: also how about Kansas. Kansas got tweaked Friday night at
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: North Carolina.
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: Darren Peterson the freshman really good again with twenty two,
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: but they didn't get a lot of scoring outside of him.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: And that's against a North Carolina team that Tony didn't
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: look like it wanted to guard a whole lot what
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: do you.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: Mean by that?
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: And they didn't play extreme pressure defense at all. Kansas
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: struggled to score. Carolina wants to get up and down
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: the floor and score on you.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah. The pit Panthers, by the way, play Monday night
• 36:10

  Speaker 1: Healing had a little bit of a situation over the weekend.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: By now, I'm sure you've seen this Colorado Equipment truck.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: Brad had a bit of a problem. It did had
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: a bit of a problem. Unfortunately, it tried to follow
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: its GPS on its way into the stadium and took
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: it up Third Street. And as you can see, not
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: a great day to be the Colorado Equipment truck driver
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: wherever he may be. He turned that best story around
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: you and not a good day, rainy kind of rainy Friday,
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: and he's he's all tangled up, doesn't know where he is.
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: And so the issue I think I'm not a big
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: fan of when schools taunt one another on social media.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: I think wvu's taunt was the best I ever saw.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: They put it up on the board, and they put
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: back up in tech, back them up, and then every
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: time Colorado did something going the wrong direction, they would
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: put that up there with the beeping sound of the
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: backup like a truck backing up. About as good of
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: a taunt, about as good of a taunt as I've
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: ever seen. So shout out to them. All. Right, here's
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: the other thing. We've gone on record on this program
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: telling you that Oliver Straw them Mountain here Punter's dad
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: is an international spot totally. Now we have confirmation of that.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: We do. Oliver and Oliver's mom, who's terrific, tremendous. They've
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: been over here in the States watching him play, went
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: to the Houston game and they brought two other spies
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: with it. You guys, bring those pictures up. So those
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: guys right, there's Ali's dad on the left, and the
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: blue shirt that's Anthony, and he brought those He brought
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: those gentlemen and they go in incognito right into the
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: Houston game. And then there's Oliver. Now Oliver now is
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: part of this whole group of spy them they're not spies,
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: so that's the thing. And then there they are, right
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: they're at Houston having a big time, you know, all
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: smiley and laughs when you're in the spy business. And
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: then this weekend they returned, they came to Morgantown. They

  Speaker 1: Well. He also he also got into the Blue Lot
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: and he tasted some beverages that I don't think they

  Speaker 1: have now. The guy on the left, he's a double
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: spy because he also owns a pub there in England.
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: I met him yesterday and so he's a spy. Oliver's
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: dad's a spy. And they walked around in the Blue
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Lot and that was those guys, and there he is.

  Speaker 1: They got They probably trying to indoctrinate that WVU student
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: to join them in some kind of spy.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: Don't have any idea if their spies or not. Well,
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: we just know thanks to Oliver's parents, they did come
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: by the basketball game to say hello to us.

• 45:11
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: This kid is the future and one of us. By
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: the way, we had a great time at the Keglers
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: radio show. So this is that group had the headball
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: coach in there, Rich and I know those guys. They
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: kind of attacked Rich there during the commercial break, But
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: it's okay.
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: So Scotty's great grandfather right of him. Mount Moore's bike
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: race up there. Yeah, Now, I don't know if I
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: saw that bike race last summer when.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: We were there. Yeah, I don't know if those guys
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: may have given the cold bug that Rich is suffering from.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: Did you hear Rich's voice this past weekend.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: He was struggling.
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: It turned to hurt to listen to him.
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: He got it through.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe one of those guys had a virus or something.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: Jesse and the Woodlands, how about that back to back wins?
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: Curtis Jones at Running Back. Of course, as a grad
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: of Cable Midland, I say, let's go. Rich and staff
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: deserve credit. I wrote this team off after the dumpster
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: fire in Orlando. This team cantinues to fight two tough
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: games down the season. Who cares? Let's go get the
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: sun Devils. Jesse in the Woodlands, Texas question for you
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: spreads over under on basketball sixteen and a half. Mason
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: from Mason County wins sixteen total.
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: That's right where Ken Palm has it.
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: Can you agree or disagree with?
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: Stack one up on Thursday? Let's go?
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: Isn't he just so slippery when he doesn't want to
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: answer a question? Texter? Three days? Great day to be
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: three guys, Great day to be a mountaineer. Most impressed
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: with the team finding a way to win Ugly a
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: month ago. This kind of game is when Colorado started
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: getting momentum on wheels. We would have started falling off. Instead,
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: we continued to fight take the momentum back. Dare I
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: say it? That last touchdown drive maybe the beginning of
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: we the fans seeing that hard edge. Ps. I recently
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: tried all three of Tutor's new barbecue flavors. This is
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: how he ranks them. Number one Carolina Gold, Number two
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: Honey Saracha, which would play sweet Teriaki at three. Don't
• 47:08

• 47:24
  Speaker 1: They've got a catering menu waiting for you. Visit Tutors Texter. Hello,
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: first time Texter, longtime listener. Do you think that the
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: Colorado quarterback Juju Lewis will cut or make his hair
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: so that the defensive player cannot grab it? Sewn from
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: the Western Panhandle of Nebraska. Formerly a landowner in the
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: valley of Fayette County, let me tell you I have
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: struggled all weekend since the game. Back of my head
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: hurts because of the way Juju Lewis got ripped down
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: to the ground. It had to hurt, but technically the
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: hair is part of the uniform. You can do that.
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: You can't horse collar rum, but you can pull hair. Gosh, dang,
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: that would hurt, wouldn't it would That explains everything about
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: that sack, because it was so unusual of the way
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: that his body went down right like sacks normally are
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: kind of like when they do a demolition on a building.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: Sacks normally kind of go like down. This thing was
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: like instantaneously and it looked like a one hand grab
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: of the shoulder pad. But obviously upon further review, he
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: had that mane right there.
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: The official was right on it. Though he immediately signaled
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: to the other official, but he thought it was a
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: shoulder pad too. It was signaling that but immediately because
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: it looked like a face mask is what it looked like. Normally,
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: when guys go down like that, it's a face mask.
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: It was not will in South Ben. That was a
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: rich Rods back game if I've ever seen one. We
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: just out load and out toughed them, fought through the
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: injuries to do it. Michael and Clodin who once gave
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: us unbelievable fudge. It wasn't pretty, but it's a win.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: Just like in golf, there's only so much room in
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: the square, just enough room for the score. You remember
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: that fudge. That's excellent, really good, Texter, this is really good.
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: So last weekend we we being three guys, did not
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: host our food court. Three guys food court, but we
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: subleased it out, subbed it. We subbed it out to
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: the folks from the Live Like Brent Foundation. Just just
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: great people. Michelle Gray and Michael Gray. They are the
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: folks that oversee the Live Like Brent Fort Foundation. That's
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: an organization that raises dollars for folks with blood cancer disorders.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: WU student went here. His name was Brent and it's
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: in his honor. So they they you know, dude, they
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: took over the food court. Have you seen any of
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: these pictures? Have not? All right, let's roll this, let's
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: roll it. So there they go. They came in, but
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: did their own signage there, Lived Like Brent. So that's
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: what before it started. And then there's Jim and Michelle
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: from Parkersburg Brewing and Michelle and Michael and homeless Dave
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: and they had a crowd. They had the big lemon
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: out there way in the background. You can rotate through
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: these guys. And then they took those that is Michelle,
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Mike and child right having a big time. Then they
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: took like this group picture. There's lemon again right, good
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: to see all those guys, and then a we got
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: one more of the whole group, like behind a white
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: in front of them. There.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: That's great. Yeah, excellent turnout.
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: So they said, She said, I wanted to reach out,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: thank you, phenomenal day, our annual tailgate, best turnout, best food,
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: best setup we ever had. Grateful for your ongoing support

  Speaker 1: a mountaineer wind, hope to see you soon. Thank yous.
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: Awesome.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so we subbed it out, subbed it out, Texter.
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: It all worked out. But can we take a moment
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: to ask Brad why he thought speaking the stat zero
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: turnover worthy plays was a good idea. Gotta treated like
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: a no hitter, not talk about it. There you go.
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: I couldn't agree with you more.
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Hey, three guys, Endergrathing Moore, you don't subscribe
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: to that theory. You talk about no hitters.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: I talk about anything to subscribe that. I don't care.
• 51:27
  Speaker 2: It is a talk show. I do have to talk
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: when I'm on here.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: Hey, three guys, longtime P one listener, first time text
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: had a great day today in the Blue Lot. Folks

  Speaker 1: And we're waiting to see when that Texas Tech game is.
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at my computer here because normally it comes
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: out around this time, to see if I'm sure they'll
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: do the six day window. Sure they will also. How

  Speaker 1: He did triple again. Yeah, you're on I'm rolling David Kaiser.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: TNT is better at football presentation than ESPN. They've got more,
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: They've got more, better camera angles, better picture quality, overall,
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: better experience. I don't understand why ESPN Disney has infinite
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: money and they've been doing it decades longer. Just an observation.
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: Don't even get me started on ESPN at this point.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: What are you doing there? Oh you're are you still cable?
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: What that thing?
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: I got all my channels?
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: Okay? Good Texter, Craig and Craigsville. What is Germany's obsession
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: with Country Roads? The song? It was played between the
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: third and the fourth of Sunday's NFL game, and the
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: stadium sounded as loud as Mountaineer Field. Wonder if the
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: Germans know the correct lyrics to Sweet Caroline? We could
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: maybe bring that song over there as well. There's a
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: picture Warren Snapp just laughing like heck on the sideline
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: when they did the Sweet Caroline this past week. Texter,
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: thanks so much for taking a few minutes of time
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: to get your picture made with Corey. This was yesterday.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: We don't miss an episode. We have to watch you,
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: not just listen. You crack us up. We've been to
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: men's basketball season ticket holders for a few years and
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: Corey and family have been loving it. Love you guys,
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: loved the Mountaineers, Cindy Dewey and Corey. We had our
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: picture made there with Corey yesterday going into the Kyle
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: Seam and it was great to see him. A huge
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: fan and he got to see him outain near Victory
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: right there, right shortly thereafter, so it was very nice
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: to see Corey. They're in Barber County.
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: That was nice of Cindian Dewey to stop us there
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: walking in. That was fun. Thanks guys.
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: Texter. Once I watched the replay of the game, I
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: realized that the last drive that led to two way
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: crusher Curtis's touchdown was vintage Rich Rod All runs the
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: other team worn down by our high tempo classic Doctor
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: Jeff and Charleston. Yeah. Rich, he likes to put that
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: ball in the hands and grind those out there. But
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: in all seriousness, that's significant. Again, I said this after
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: the pit game for the younger folks that didn't have
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to remember Rich when he was here for
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: the first time. The pit game was a good example
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: of it. And then Saturday was a good example of
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: how you know, you try to get first to you
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: and try to mulch, and you mulch, and then once
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: you get that, then you just it's good and when
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: it works, it's even better.
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: Keep coming, Texter.
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: Great great weekend football win, basketball win, soccer, rifle wins.
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: Great time to be a Mountaineer. But the best part
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: was purchasing four tickets to see you fellas in Charleston,
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: South Carolina. Can't wait to see y'all. Dougie Fresher from
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: merles Inlet, so he got his tickets Low Country Mountaineer
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: alumni just ten bucks for those tickets. That's when the
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: Saturday between the two games we play Friday night Clemson Saturday,
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: we'll have off. We're going to do this thing from
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: noon until four. We just might stay there, sleep camp
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: there at that fish at fish World.
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: And Lawrence's Lawrence's.
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: Lawrence's fish World, and then Sunday we play again.
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: Ten dollars per ticket, thirty five all you can eat oyster,
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: and you.
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: Can eat oysters ace, gentlemen, ain't college football a wild
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: and unpredictable roller coaster of a ride? Three weeks ago,
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: We're discussing if this was one of the worst West
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: Virginia teams in school history. Now we're talking about Bowl eligibility.
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: Uh huh, that's a really good point week to week business.
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Texter says this. Remember the coach who said he
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: doesn't curse in practice and if anyone does, it's five
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: push ups on the spot. Well, fast forward to game day.
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: I missed the double fisted slam to the scorers table,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: but my husband said it was a thing of beauty.
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: It's the lehigh game. Things are getting a little rough,
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: and suddenly we hear time out. Damn it, DJ, you're
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: getting our ass beat. It appeared at times as though
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: there were a few moments like that for Jasper, and
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: a mirror in the huddle as well. So now I'm
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: just wondering, does coach owe himself at least fifteen push
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: ups at the start of the next practice, because if so,
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: I want that on the stat sheet like rebounds, assists,
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: coaches push ups. Can the senator make that happen? I
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: still got to love his fire and defensive energy. Though
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: man's got tenacity.
• 57:55
  Speaker 2: Those two words count as swear words, I don't think
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: they do.
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: No, damn it and ass.
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: I don't think they'd no, No.
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: But we have seen we have seen multiple drop downs
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: by everyone on the team into push up mode, and
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: everyone on the staff does push ups. When someone says
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: a dirty.
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: I'll say it doesn't happen often though, No, it does
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: not happen off.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: Very rare, very very rare. But yeah, he's no, he
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: lives up to it. I've noticed. I mean he goes
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: from about zero to one hundred and twenty really fast.
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: You know, everyone always talks about those electric cars. They
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: just kind of go like really.
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I got asked the other day on the on
• 58:32
  Speaker 2: the two hand hit of the scores table if I jumped,
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: I happened to be looking right at him, saw it coming. Yeah,
• 58:38
  Speaker 2: So I did not jump, saw it, saw it coming
• 58:40
  Speaker 2: from a ways away.
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what was that about?
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: I don't remember. I think I think in a misshot now,
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: it wasn't an official I think no, it's usually a
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: missed defensive aside. It wasn't a referee thing, it was
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: a player thing. It was a misrotation on help, I believe. Yeah,
• 58:54
  Speaker 2: that's usually what gets the ire Yeah, draws the ire.
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: He during his postgame radio yesterday. I mean he didn't
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: try to be he didn't try to avoid the pit
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: thing at all. He's I'm not saying that this is
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: not a bigger game, and this is a bigger game,
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: and I fully understand this is a bigger game. So
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: we're not going to say, oh, it's just not a game,
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: which I kind of.
• 59:16
  Speaker 2: Like he said. It would be fake and disingenuous if
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: he said it was just a regular game to the guys, right,
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: So he's not handling it that way, correct.
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: So they're gonna they're gonna get it, and it's gonna
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: be a lot of fun.
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: It probably was good for those guys. Most that team
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: went over and watched the football game for at least
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: a portion of it and saw what that was about,
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: and saw how loud the crowd was and what it means.
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: So you got to, Yeah, you got a bunch of
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: guys that have not experienced it live, but they've seen
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: it in theory with the football side of things.
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: Okay, now we have to have a three guys production
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: meeting in front of you, So we're going Friday morning.
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: Friday morning.
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: We're gonna go Friday morning from what I hear, so
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: that will be our preview of Arizona State, and it
• 59:58
