- 1:38Speaker 1: pressure and he goes down coming in to sack him.
- 1:42Speaker 1: Was burning. Brodney almost got him on the prior play.

- 2:24Speaker 1: end zone for Teat and Blue. Did he catch it?

- 2:33Speaker 2: And there's a very good reason for this.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Looking at the replay, Jan Blue has it, has a
- 2:40Speaker 1: foot down, shoved out of the back of the end zone,
- 2:43Speaker 1: hits the ground and is only late loses it. But
- 2:47Speaker 1: quinn Ewers thought it was a touchdown. I think the
- 2:49Speaker 1: Longhorns thought it was a touchdown, and so they'll wait
- 2:52Speaker 1: for the review.
- 2:54Speaker 2: After video, we're new the receiver had it put down.
- 2:57Speaker 1: And maintained possession of the dog round wherever it touched down.

- 6:37Speaker 1: Good afternoon, everybody, Welcome to the program here on Sports
- 6:40Speaker 1: Radio AM thirteen under the Zone. My name is Craig Way.
- 6:43Speaker 1: I thank you very much for joining us. US, of course,
- 6:47Speaker 1: includes the producer Cameron D.
- 6:49Speaker 2: Parker.
- 6:49Speaker 1: The D the birth certificate stands for Dallas, as in
- 6:54Speaker 1: his favorite football team that he refuses to watch, although
- 6:56Speaker 1: he did watch him against the Commanders, vowed not to
- 6:59Speaker 1: watch them. On Thanksgiving Day, methodically pull away from and
- 7:04Speaker 1: then hold on to beat the New York Football Giants.
- 7:08Speaker 2: Was did you live up to your word on that
- 7:11Speaker 2: or did you just need a pick at the game
- 7:12Speaker 2: on Thursday?
- 7:13Speaker 3: Do not think I watched anything live. I did see
- 7:16Speaker 3: Demarvin Overshown's incredible concentration to pull down that pick six.
- 7:21Speaker 3: I mean you're playing Drew Locke and the Giants. So
- 7:24Speaker 3: but hey, five with five and seven, now.
- 7:27Speaker 2: Look at that.
- 7:27Speaker 1: Look at that telling me there's a chance now with.
- 7:30Speaker 3: The Commanders winning, I think Dallas needs Washington to really
- 7:33Speaker 3: fall apart in and.
- 7:34Speaker 2: They have one more head to headshot with them too, Yeah.
- 7:36Speaker 3: One more. So I don't know what their playoff percent chances.
- 7:40Speaker 3: I mean you're looking at five and seven right now,
- 7:42Speaker 3: and in this NFC, I mean your division, Craig, the
- 7:45Speaker 3: West is so stacked up, and it does look like
- 7:48Speaker 3: the fort Niners were eliminated last night with McCaffrey going
- 7:51Speaker 3: down for the entire season. I mean, who would have
- 7:54Speaker 3: thought Dallas and San Francisco had the same record, but
- 7:56Speaker 3: a below five hundred record at this point in December.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Here's how I look at this. And we'll talk more
- 8:02Speaker 1: NFL a little bit later on in the program, but
- 8:05Speaker 1: if you obviously count the division winners, it'll be Philadelphia
- 8:11Speaker 1: in the East, Detroit probably in the North.
- 8:17Speaker 2: I don't know the South. What's gonna be in the South.
- 8:22Speaker 3: If I mean yet, two teams at six and six.
- 8:25Speaker 2: Tampa Bay and Tampa Bay control the tiebreaker.
- 8:29Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're a Falcons fan, I think you're starting
- 8:31Speaker 3: to call for Michael Pennix junior.
- 8:33Speaker 1: Yeah. So you'd have a South Division winner and you
- 8:36Speaker 1: have a West Division winner, which is a mess. One
- 8:39Speaker 1: of those teams will win the West. Seattle right now
- 8:42Speaker 1: holds one game lead. The Cardinals and Rams are tied
- 8:45Speaker 1: for second at six and six, and the forty nine Ers,
- 8:47Speaker 1: despite being in last, are only two games back at
- 8:50Speaker 1: five and seven. Here's the thing with the NFC, which
- 8:52Speaker 1: they all play each other again, so they all control
- 8:56Speaker 1: their own destinies if they can get those tie breakers.
- 8:59Speaker 1: The Rams have the eyebreaker on Seattle currently, but not
- 9:01Speaker 1: the Cardinals, but they do the forty nine Ers, so
- 9:05Speaker 1: that that would be so anyway, they all have various things.
- 9:07Speaker 1: But my point is this, You're gonna get one team
- 9:10Speaker 1: out of the NFC West for sure, a division champion.
- 9:13Speaker 1: You're gonna get one team out of the NFC South
- 9:15Speaker 1: for sure, a division champion. You're gonna get the Eagles,
- 9:18Speaker 1: and you're gonna get probably Detroit. I'd say Green Bay
- 9:21Speaker 1: and Minnesota are probably gonna get wild cards. It leads
- 9:23Speaker 1: one spot, one spot Washington, you know who knows. So
- 9:30Speaker 1: that's probably what's gonna happen in the NFC. Uh, in
- 9:33Speaker 1: the ANFC, there's some things still up up in the
- 9:36Speaker 1: air and up for grabs. Texans had to hold on
- 9:37Speaker 1: for dear life and one. But anyway, we'll talk some
- 9:39Speaker 1: more NFL coming up. This being a Long Horns Monday,
- 9:44Speaker 1: and by the way, I'm not one hundred percent sure
- 9:47Speaker 1: about this, so I'm not gonna put the cart before
- 9:50Speaker 1: the horse. It might be our last Long Horns Monday
- 9:53Speaker 1: of the season. The reason why I say that is
- 9:56Speaker 1: there's the SEC Championship game coming up.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Now, win or lose.
- 10:03Speaker 1: The university may choose not to do a press conference
- 10:09Speaker 1: on Monday with Sark. They might, but we heard nothing
- 10:15Speaker 1: on that, so don't know.
- 10:17Speaker 2: We don't know.
- 10:17Speaker 1: If we have a Monday press it will have more
- 10:20Speaker 1: There will be more press conferences to come before the
- 10:23Speaker 1: college football playoff. And I do feel pretty comfortable and
- 10:25Speaker 1: confident in saying this Texas long run football team will
- 10:28Speaker 1: be in the college Football playoff after Saturday Nights.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Win, we'll get in all of that, but I don't
- 10:35Speaker 2: know when those would be, so who knows.
- 10:37Speaker 1: Put it this way, it's our final regularly scheduled long
- 10:42Speaker 1: runs Monday with SARK coming off of a weekend game.
- 10:46Speaker 1: It just happened to be the last game of the
- 10:47Speaker 1: regular season, the win over Texas A and M that
- 10:50Speaker 1: took Texas to eleven and one. For the second straight
- 10:52Speaker 1: year and for the second straight year, Texas will be
- 10:55Speaker 1: playing for a conference championship.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Last year, in.
- 10:57Speaker 1: Fact, it was one year ago today when the Longhorns
- 11:02Speaker 1: beat up on Oklahoma State forty nine to twenty one.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Had Jerry World that did there at at and T
- 11:09Speaker 1: Stadium in Arlington. They won forty nine to twenty one
- 11:11Speaker 1: to win. This Saturday will be the SEC championship game
- 11:15Speaker 1: at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, even my first time
- 11:19Speaker 1: ever to go into that building.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Kind of looking forward to that.
- 11:21Speaker 1: I really I've called a women's Final four game in
- 11:24Speaker 1: the Georgia Dome when Texas women reached the Final four
- 11:28Speaker 1: in two thousand and three and a narrow two point
- 11:30Speaker 1: loss to Yukon. I did that, and I was at
- 11:34Speaker 1: Super Bowl twenty eight when the Cowboys defeated the Buffalo
- 11:38Speaker 1: Bills thirty to thirteen. I was a media member and
- 11:41Speaker 1: I was in the Georgia Dome for that one when
- 11:43Speaker 1: the Cowboys won that It was way back before you
- 11:45Speaker 1: were born, and.
- 11:46Speaker 2: When the Cowboys were successful.
- 11:49Speaker 1: What was that like? Wow? So it was something else
- 11:52Speaker 1: pretty heady times up there, just like it is down
- 11:54Speaker 1: here when the football team in this down is successful.
- 11:59Speaker 1: But the Georgia Dome of course doesn't exist any more.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Mercedes Benz Stadium is there now. So Saturday afternoon we'll
- 12:04Speaker 1: bring you the SEC Championship Texas versus Georgia. Busy week
- 12:11Speaker 1: all ement. Tomorrow, Cameron and I leave for Raleigh, North
- 12:14Speaker 1: Carolina with the long worn men's basketball team. They're going
- 12:16Speaker 1: to play in the acc SEC Challenge against the North
- 12:20Speaker 1: Carolina State Wolfpack on Wednesday night. That is about an
- 12:23Speaker 1: eight point fifteen tip off. We'll be on the air
- 12:26Speaker 1: at seven point thirty here on the Zone and on
- 12:30Speaker 1: ninety eight one Cavett on Wednesday night and then Thursday
- 12:36Speaker 1: Thursday where I fly to South Bend from Raleigh and
- 12:40Speaker 1: Thursday night. The Texas women ranked fourth in the country
- 12:43Speaker 1: play tenth rank Notre Dame. They were number three until
- 12:46Speaker 1: they got upset by TCU of the weekend down and
- 12:48Speaker 1: I think it was Graham Cayman down in one of
- 12:50Speaker 1: the island holiday tournaments. But they'll play Notre Dame on
- 12:56Speaker 1: Thursday night.
- 12:58Speaker 2: At the Joyce. I think it's called it Athletic compecause.
- 13:01Speaker 1: I've never done a basketball game and Notre Dameland, I've
- 13:03Speaker 1: done football. I've never done a basketball game, men's or women.
- 13:05Speaker 1: So anyway, that'll be Thursday night and then from there Thursday,
- 13:10Speaker 1: I will fly to Atlanta Friday morning and check in
- 13:14Speaker 1: from Atlanta during the show on Friday, so we'll do
- 13:17Speaker 1: that leading up to all that.
