- 2:10Speaker 3: Arizona State, twelve Alabama, and now mister Flynn, the eleventh
- 2:15Speaker 3: rank team and the OTB top twenty five.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Here we go at ready, this is pretty intense people,
- 2:23Speaker 2: a little bit different from what the coaches think, a
- 2:27Speaker 2: little bit different than what the Associated Press thinks. We're
- 2:31Speaker 2: choosing the number eleven team. Let's starting to get to
- 2:33Speaker 2: crunch time, starting to get to being a little bit
- 2:35Speaker 2: difficult because we're at playoff teams now, Uh we are.
- 2:40Speaker 2: We're talking about the big dogs, talking about big dog
- 2:44Speaker 2: with the big dog eat. We talking Abut we can't
- 2:45Speaker 2: make any changes up to this point. So we're choosing
- 2:49Speaker 2: a team right now that is in the top ten
- 2:53Speaker 2: on most of those other poles, and we're choosing a
- 2:58Speaker 2: team that I'm just picking up because I want to
- 3:01Speaker 2: keep them out of the top ten. And that is
- 3:03Speaker 2: my main and basic reason for this. So we're going
- 3:10Speaker 2: South Florida. We're going down to my.
- 3:13Speaker 4: Oh, I thought you meant South Florida like the Bulls.
- 3:15Speaker 2: No, I wanted to. I thought about it. We're going
- 3:17Speaker 2: way down there. We're going to the Miami Hurricanes at
- 3:21Speaker 2: number eleven and our OTB preseason top twenty five. They
- 3:28Speaker 2: are losing that man, cam Ward.
- 3:31Speaker 4: He is that man too.
- 3:32Speaker 2: He is that man. What a mindset he's got, what
- 3:35Speaker 2: uh spin it? He can spin it? And I wanted
- 3:39Speaker 2: to keep them out of the top ten for the
- 3:40Speaker 2: sheer reason that I think that cam Ward was so good,
- 3:45Speaker 2: that he made them so much better. And I get it.
- 3:48Speaker 2: We got they got Carson Barns that we that we
- 3:52Speaker 2: worried around too much. They running Carson back, all right,
- 3:57Speaker 2: And I know he had a good career. He's done
- 3:59Speaker 2: what good things at Georgia. He's got like, I think,
- 4:02Speaker 2: seven thousand career passing yards at Georgia. He had twenty
- 4:06Speaker 2: twenty three thirty nine one hundred and forty one yards
- 4:09Speaker 2: at Georgia, which is second all time at the University
- 4:11Speaker 2: of Georgia. I get it, he's played pretty good. But
- 4:14Speaker 2: that mean cam Ward was a different kind of guy.
- 4:17Speaker 2: I expect him to do. I expect him to be
- 4:20Speaker 2: one of the top guys in the NFL in the
- 4:24Speaker 2: next handful of you.
- 4:25Speaker 3: You even think about his time at Wazoo, he held
- 4:28Speaker 3: off John Matier.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he's he's special and I think he's
- 4:32Speaker 2: gonna I think he's gonna prove that. And let's all
- 4:35Speaker 2: be honest with ourselves. Nobody likes Carson Beck right, just
- 4:39Speaker 2: from a personal standpoint.
- 4:40Speaker 4: No, there's something about his face.
- 4:41Speaker 2: There's something about his face just makes you want to
- 4:44Speaker 2: punch it. And I think that's the basis of trying
- 4:47Speaker 2: to keep vibe and his vibe. Okay, so we got
- 4:50Speaker 2: a lot of hot goss that comes around with him.
- 4:52Speaker 2: I think. I don't know if this was the reason,
- 4:54Speaker 2: but oh, the rumored reason was because he was dating
- 4:57Speaker 2: one of the Cavender twins. Yeah, so he went down
- 4:59Speaker 2: there handing dating hurt basketball players, really good basketball players
- 5:03Speaker 2: done well from themselves on the socials. On the socials, well,
- 5:08Speaker 2: guess what. Allegedly why a cheat it on her. That's
- 5:14Speaker 2: what they say on the internet.
- 5:15Speaker 5: And they broke up.
- 5:18Speaker 2: That's what the streets are saying. I don't know if
- 5:19Speaker 2: it's true. Maybe he ever get his Lambeau back. Yeah,
- 5:22Speaker 2: so he got his. So I think he got his
- 5:25Speaker 2: luxury vehicle, and I think the Cavender sisters got some
- 5:28Speaker 2: luxury vehicles stolen when he got down to Miami. A
- 5:31Speaker 2: lot of rumors circulating from the Georgia locker room and
- 5:34Speaker 2: Miami locker room talking a little shade at Carson Beack.
- 5:38Speaker 2: So if you got that guy leading your team, I'm sorry,
- 5:40Speaker 2: it's gonna be tough. And oh yeah, not to mention,
- 5:43Speaker 2: they're losing their top six pass catchers from twenty twenty four.
- 5:46Speaker 2: Xavier a Strep a wide receiver.
- 5:48Speaker 4: All time leading receiver in Miami history.
- 5:50Speaker 2: All time back to back one thousand plus yard seasons.
- 5:55Speaker 2: They lose Elijah Aroro tied end. They are losing a
- 5:58Speaker 2: lot and from the pass catch standpoint, and and.
- 6:01Speaker 3: A guy Martinez running back got drafted last year by
- 6:05Speaker 3: the Seahawks.
- 6:07Speaker 2: Now they're saving grace is their schedule is pretty darn easy.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Opens up, It opens up tough, but like for for
- 6:16Speaker 2: having to be like, all they got to do is
- 6:18Speaker 2: finish in the top twelve. It's a very you know
- 6:20Speaker 2: they're playing in the ACC. They open up a Notre
- 6:22Speaker 2: Dame of course, so that they're going to open up
- 6:23Speaker 2: on one. They play Florida early in the season, but
- 6:27Speaker 2: I'd have to look at the dates. I think it's
- 6:29Speaker 2: Florida after right after an LSU game, so it could
- 6:33Speaker 2: get them. They could catch them at a good time
- 6:35Speaker 2: right there, right after noie A game they play s
- 6:37Speaker 2: m U. But what's crazy is they are the highest ranked,
- 6:41Speaker 2: second highest ranked ACC team on the top twenty five
- 6:44Speaker 2: on both coaches and AP. They're the fourth in the
- 6:47Speaker 2: power rankings in the ACC. How does that math work out?
- 6:51Speaker 4: Mostly being an underdog in week one.
- 6:54Speaker 2: And so a lot of that tells me A lot
- 6:55Speaker 2: of that has has to do with scheduling, right, So Clemson,
- 6:58Speaker 2: of course in the ACC is powering number one of
- 7:00Speaker 2: the power ranks have Georgia techt to SMU three, Miami
- 7:03Speaker 2: at four. But for some reason, everybody's like, oh yeah,
- 7:05Speaker 2: they're gonna be ten.
- 7:06Speaker 4: For whatever reason, they do get Florida after ALISHU.
- 7:08Speaker 2: If we go if we could go redo this whole thing,
- 7:10Speaker 2: I'd probably put Miami way back back in this list,
- 7:15Speaker 2: but you know, yeah I would, I would probably do that.
- 7:18Speaker 2: I don't. I don't.
- 7:18Speaker 4: I'm with you.
- 7:19Speaker 2: I don't like them now, Like I thought about it
- 7:21Speaker 2: and looked at Miami a little bit more because I
- 7:23Speaker 2: do think cam Ward was just so good. He made
- 7:25Speaker 2: them a lot better than that.
- 7:26Speaker 6: I certainly don't think that they're top ten like you either, No,
- 7:31Speaker 6: not on our list, but yeah, you're right, And this
- 7:34Speaker 6: is like we kind of talked about it being kind
- 7:36Speaker 6: of difficult starting at like twenty five and going down
- 7:40Speaker 6: because it gets a little easier as you go. But
- 7:43Speaker 6: I I'm kind of with you, like I think if
- 7:45Speaker 6: we were to redo it, i'd put them way yeah,
- 7:49Speaker 6: lower or higher, whatever you want to call it. Because
- 7:52Speaker 6: we were talking about it before the show and I
- 7:54Speaker 6: was like, well, I just don't really know what weapons
- 7:56Speaker 6: they have, and then we talked about Ristrepo and how
- 7:58Speaker 6: like so many they a lot of them.
- 8:00Speaker 7: So I'm with you.
- 8:02Speaker 6: Carson back sucks a lot of drama around him.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Good news, punchable face.
- 8:07Speaker 6: Good news his Mercedes was recovered, but they still haven't
- 8:11Speaker 6: found the Lamborghini a tough times in Mia.
- 8:14Speaker 5: Guy, you got a field for a guy like that.
- 8:17Speaker 2: But you want, like when you're looking at an NFL,
- 8:19Speaker 2: you want guys to have overcome adversity like this is
- 8:23Speaker 2: a breakup, a bad breakup, like a bad sleeps that
- 8:29Speaker 2: are on the street. You can't get rid of this
- 8:30Speaker 2: cheating rumors. I'm sure he didn't do it. Sure it's
- 8:33Speaker 2: her fault.
- 8:33Speaker 4: To your point, like he doesn't know how you snapchat
- 8:36Speaker 4: know that.
- 8:36Speaker 8: After after Notre Dame week one, like not a bad schedule,
- 8:40Speaker 8: it's not him Cookman U c F Florida will be tough.
- 8:43Speaker 8: You do get them at home, but then Florida State,
- 8:46Speaker 8: no Clemson, no Clemson, like Louisville's tough, but then Stanford.
- 8:50Speaker 5: What is SMU this year?
- 8:51Speaker 3: We'll see Syracuse Syracuse not in the artist formally known
- 8:55Speaker 3: as the Carrier Dome, so that helps they play much
- 8:58Speaker 3: better there.
- 8:59Speaker 5: Yeah, you got NC State at home.
- 9:03Speaker 4: It's really a d of the year is tricky, but.
- 9:07Speaker 5: Yeah you go you go to Virginia Tech to to
- 9:09Speaker 5: end the season.
- 9:10Speaker 3: Yeah, but not schedule wise. I think that's probably why
- 9:12Speaker 3: a lot of people are high on them.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Yeah, let's just not underestimate top six pass catchers gone. Yeah,
- 9:17Speaker 2: for sure, am Ward was a different guy. I think
- 9:19Speaker 2: he had that that dog mentality and that leadership ability
- 9:24Speaker 2: to make everybody better. Carson Beck certainly does not have
- 9:26Speaker 2: that right and especially maybe like you don't know what's
- 9:30Speaker 2: going with the so maybe within the locker and maybe
- 9:32Speaker 2: everything's great, but it sure doesn't look it. So we're
- 9:35Speaker 2: keeping them out of our top ten here. If I
- 9:37Speaker 2: could move them out of the top twenty five right now,
- 9:40Speaker 2: I do it. I can't. So they're eleven.
- 9:45Speaker 4: We kept Michigan out of our top twenty five, So
- 9:47Speaker 4: I feel good.
- 9:47Speaker 5: Maybe you wouldn't, maybe we awhere.
- 9:51Speaker 2: I would. I'd probably switch with Miami with SMU then
- 9:56Speaker 2: or Georgia Tech.
- 9:58Speaker 4: No George, but then so did twenty two.
- 10:01Speaker 2: They should be like eleven.
- 10:03Speaker 3: Oh you're saying I should have put Georgia Tech higher.
- 10:05Speaker 3: Oh okay, I can get behind that.
- 10:08Speaker 2: Hell for sure, you know we're on the Georgia Tech
- 10:10Speaker 2: train though.
- 10:11Speaker 4: Haines King Media quarterback QB one.
- 10:14Speaker 2: LSU Georgia Tech National Championship, let's go.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Yeah, that's really the Michigan is the only time that's
- 10:21Speaker 4: kind of.
- 10:21Speaker 2: When you want that star position you played Georgia Tech.
- 10:27Speaker 3: Yeah, we're saying some are saying that. All right, I've
- 10:31Speaker 3: already got my my number ten team.
- 10:33Speaker 4: And you're doing that now. You know, we got to
- 10:36Speaker 4: double up at some point. We have to double We
- 10:38Speaker 4: got to double up at some point twice, and so
- 10:40Speaker 4: we might as well go ahead and double up right now.
- 10:42Speaker 5: Okay, this is exciting.
- 10:45Speaker 2: He's another segment. You don't want to rush this.
- 10:48Speaker 4: That's fair. And we do have mail bag. We can
- 10:50Speaker 4: push mail bag back to eight thirty people sweat.
- 10:53Speaker 2: I'm sure everyone's on the edge of the seat.
- 10:55Speaker 4: I'm think about it a little bit.
- 10:56Speaker 2: This is radio pro Gotta slow people down a little bit.

- 13:28Speaker 2: Carson deck Space, I'm going to.
- 13:29Speaker 4: Give you the tenth ranked team out of the Big.
- 13:32Speaker 3: Ten per Brett Belama in the Illinois Fighting Alna coming
- 13:40Speaker 3: at number.
- 13:43Speaker 4: Look at what they did a year ago, one of the.
- 13:47Speaker 3: More under talked about teams in the country beat South
- 13:50Speaker 3: Carolina in their ballgame. Hell Shane Biemer and Belam almost
- 13:54Speaker 3: fault right there in the game. South Carolina was a
- 13:57Speaker 3: team that everybody said should have made the playoff. Illinois
- 14:01Speaker 3: took him down and a lot of those players played right.
- 14:04Speaker 4: It wasn't a lot of.
- 14:05Speaker 6: Opt back to my playoff expansion thing.
- 14:09Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, very true, very true. And Illinois returns.
- 14:16Speaker 3: One of the top fifteen roster retention percentages in the country.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Luke Altmeyer back at quarterback, very solid quarterback. You look
- 14:27Speaker 3: at their depth chart, there's not a lot of movement, right,
- 14:29Speaker 3: they return so many guys. I don't know, man, you're
- 14:34Speaker 3: looking at who they return, who they lost. They go
- 14:38Speaker 3: and get four players out of the portal to shore
- 14:40Speaker 3: up any losses that they did have.
- 14:41Speaker 4: On the defense.
- 14:42Speaker 3: I don't have to add a lot on offense because
- 14:44Speaker 3: almost everybody is coming back from a really good team
- 14:48Speaker 3: a year ago. Now, they do have a tricky game
- 14:51Speaker 3: week number two at Duke. That's a tricky game. Duke
- 14:55Speaker 3: is good enough to beat you, Like Duke is going
- 14:57Speaker 3: to be one of those teams that is going to
- 15:00Speaker 3: beat somebody they shouldn't, probably twice next year. So that
- 15:04Speaker 3: one not just handwaving that. But let's just go to
- 15:07Speaker 3: who they have in the Big ten, or really who
- 15:11Speaker 3: they don't have. No Michigan, no Oregon, no Penn State.
- 15:17Speaker 3: You do play Ohio State, but you play him at home.
- 15:22Speaker 3: So after Duke, they open up with Western Illinois the Leathernecks.
- 15:26Speaker 4: Let's go.
- 15:27Speaker 3: They go on the road to Duke. You get past
- 15:30Speaker 3: that one, You got Western Michigan. The next week you
- 15:33Speaker 3: do go to Indiana. We don't know how Indiana's going
- 15:36Speaker 3: to what encore they're going to have for us. After
- 15:40Speaker 3: their playoff run USC at home at Purdue, Purdue's awful.
- 15:46Speaker 3: Ohio State at home, you get a bye week before
- 15:50Speaker 3: you go out west to Washington.
- 15:52Speaker 4: You come back home against Rutgers.
- 15:54Speaker 3: You get another bye week before you come back and
- 15:57Speaker 3: play Maryland at home.
- 15:58Speaker 4: You go to Camp Randall and then Northwestern at home.
- 16:04Speaker 3: You could lose to the buck Eyes, have one more
- 16:07Speaker 3: slip up probably and still have a realistic opportunity to
- 16:12Speaker 3: make the college Football Playoff. If you go eleven and
- 16:15Speaker 3: one and only lose to the buck Eyes, what are you?
- 16:17Speaker 3: You're Indiana from last year? So with that schedule, no Michigan,
- 16:23Speaker 3: no Oregon, no Penn State, having a top fifteen returning
- 16:28Speaker 3: production percentage in the country.
- 16:33Speaker 4: Brought, Yeah, this could easily be a playoff team.
- 16:38Speaker 3: And Luke Altmeyer is one of the more undervalued quarterbacks
- 16:42Speaker 3: in the country. Hudson Clement is somebody that comes over
- 16:45Speaker 3: from West Virginia at the receiver position. Fifty one catches
- 16:49Speaker 3: seven forty one fourteen and a half yards per catch,
- 16:51Speaker 3: five touchdowns, So you add him to your offense.
- 16:55Speaker 4: Did it end the Big Twelve with this schedule?
- 16:59Speaker 3: With how they play last year, with the confidence that
- 17:01Speaker 3: they have beating South Carolina in that bowl game, missing
- 17:05Speaker 3: those three big brands in the Big Ten, your toughest
- 17:09Speaker 3: game being at home. I think they've got the talent.
- 17:14Speaker 3: I think they've got the coach. Brett Bilima knows one
- 17:18Speaker 3: thing that's a Big Ten.
- 17:21Speaker 4: He played there.
- 17:23Speaker 3: He Coacha Wisconsin, and he's coached here in Illinois with
- 17:25Speaker 3: a lot of success. Now, when he tried to go
- 17:27Speaker 3: be an SEC coach, didn't go great for him at Arkansas,
- 17:30Speaker 3: but in the Big Ten he's always been successful.
- 17:33Speaker 2: Yeah, it's his fifth year Illinois. On defense, Look, I'm
- 17:39Speaker 2: they're inside linebacker Dylan Rosick Roseick, he's a two time
- 17:44Speaker 2: All Big Ten player. Outside lineberger Gabe Jackis preseason Yeah,
- 17:51Speaker 2: he's a preseason All American. They were returning three of
- 17:54Speaker 2: the top four dbs from last year. They got a
- 17:58Speaker 2: centner who's a two time All Big Ten player. They
- 18:01Speaker 2: got a tight end that's on the Macki Award watch
- 18:03Speaker 2: list as a senior, returning their quarterback. You know, I
- 18:07Speaker 2: can get on on the Alani train this year.
- 18:10Speaker 3: I like the way I like the way they played too. Yeah,
- 18:13Speaker 3: there's not a lot of guessing like what they're doing.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot that they had beaten South Carolina. Now,
- 18:18Speaker 2: I know there's kind of a letdown, like emotionally spiritually
- 18:21Speaker 2: when you want to when you think you should be
- 18:23Speaker 2: in the playoffs and you don't make it. I get
- 18:25Speaker 2: that there's a kind of a let down there. But
- 18:29Speaker 2: it doesn't take the talent away right from South Carolina.
- 18:32Speaker 2: So I'd forgot they'd beat them. So look, yeah, why not.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Why wouldn't they be like that going through that schedule. Yeah,
- 18:40Speaker 2: like they're they're they're avoiding all those big boys. Uh
- 18:44Speaker 2: that You're right. That Duke game, it could be a
- 18:46Speaker 2: little tricky.
- 18:46Speaker 4: Duke got Indiana.
- 18:47Speaker 3: If you handle business, if you go into that game
- 18:50Speaker 3: with the right mindset, you're going to be a favorite
- 18:51Speaker 3: in those games.
- 18:52Speaker 4: You handle those games.
- 18:53Speaker 3: Again, you lose to Ohio State, and it's not ridiculous,
- 18:57Speaker 3: right if it's a good game, you're eleven to one,
- 18:59Speaker 3: you're in the playoff.
- 19:00Speaker 2: You're in.
- 19:01Speaker 4: You're not gonna keep an eleven and one Big ten
- 19:03Speaker 4: team out of the playoff.
- 19:04Speaker 3: You're not gonna happen. You'd have a hard time keeping
- 19:06Speaker 3: a ten and two Big ten team out of the playoff.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Yep.
- 19:08Speaker 2: Yeah, So you'll drop one to Ohio State. Probably in
- 19:12Speaker 2: at Indiana. It's a fifty to fifty game. Probably fair.
- 19:15Speaker 4: You take it.
- 19:16Speaker 2: You take the coin the coin the coin toss game.
- 19:19Speaker 2: You're right there to be a top ten team with
- 19:21Speaker 2: the playoff spot and then let the chips fall where
- 19:24Speaker 2: they may at that point, and he rebuttals back look
- 19:28Speaker 2: at South Carolina again to Illinois.
- 19:30Speaker 4: I love it.
- 19:31Speaker 5: I think this is right where they should be.
- 19:32Speaker 8: I don't think people realize how good Luke Aldmyre was
- 19:35Speaker 8: a year ago. I mean he only turned the ball
- 19:37Speaker 8: over six times.
- 19:38Speaker 4: Yep.
- 19:39Speaker 5: I think he's a really, really good player. I love
- 19:42Speaker 5: this pick.
- 19:42Speaker 8: I mean you mentioned it, like Bilima has done so
- 19:45Speaker 8: much with that program. There's a lot of people that
- 19:47Speaker 8: were like, where's Bilama gonna get his next shot after
- 19:50Speaker 8: the way it ended at Arkansas, And he's kind of
- 19:52Speaker 8: turned that thing around at Illinois.
- 19:53Speaker 5: I really look what he's done.
- 19:56Speaker 4: Landroelect pick thumbs up, thumbs down.
- 19:58Speaker 5: No objections here, Okay, yeah, all right, no objection.
- 20:01Speaker 2: I think we all like to pick. I don't think
- 20:02Speaker 2: anybody likes I don't Miami at eleven just because we don't.
- 20:05Speaker 6: Like Miamiami at eleven.
- 20:07Speaker 2: I don't know, like where do we put him?
- 20:09Speaker 4: Actually, Like I didn't think I didn't mind Miami at first.
- 20:12Speaker 4: I was like, okay, of course, and back he's got
- 20:13Speaker 4: a lot of success. But like the more that you
- 20:15Speaker 4: kept talking, I was like, they should be like in twenty.
- 20:18Speaker 7: Three, they should be You know top twenty five, so
- 20:21Speaker 7: I replace them with like, I wouldn't move Memphis up,
- 20:25Speaker 7: but I would like take Memphis out maybe and put
- 20:28Speaker 7: Miami there if I could take like one of we
- 20:30Speaker 7: could redo it.
- 20:31Speaker 2: You can't, we can't. We got to stick our guns.
- 20:33Speaker 2: I would put Miami where Georgia Tech is, which is
- 20:36Speaker 2: twenty three. I'd move SMU to wear to eleven, and
- 20:39Speaker 2: I put Georgia Tech at What's what's the smut right now?
- 20:42Speaker 2: That show fourteen?
- 20:44Speaker 5: How unexciting Miami is? I kind of forgot about We
- 20:47Speaker 5: forgot about that I did. That's how lot exciting they are?
- 20:49Speaker 2: Yeah, Like what are these coaches thinking?
- 20:55Speaker 6: Right? That's what I was about to say that I.
- 20:56Speaker 2: Forgot drink the schedule.
- 20:59Speaker 5: When we put the don't graphic, I'll just put like
- 21:01Speaker 5: sorry and.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Asterix. We forgot about them out of the top ten people.
- 21:08Speaker 2: We kept them out of the top ten.
- 21:10Speaker 6: I already know who I'm gonna put at nine tomorrow,
- 21:13Speaker 6: all right, so let me make sure this.
- 21:17Speaker 5: Actually, no, don't tell the people.
- 21:23Speaker 2: They're nine on coaches and a people.
- 21:27Speaker 4: But this is the O T.
- 21:28Speaker 7: B poll.
- 21:28Speaker 3: Okay, our math is mathing, So we'll give you nine
- 21:32Speaker 3: on Wednesday, eight, on Thursday, seven, on Friday, six, on Monday, five,
- 21:36Speaker 3: on Tuesday, four, on Wednesday, three on Thursday and like
- 21:40Speaker 3: we said, one and two on Friday before kickoff.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Ya, it's gonna be exciting.
- 21:45Speaker 4: Look at that maskills.
- 21:47Speaker 2: This is gonna be ma.
- 21:49Speaker 4: We got it.
- 21:50Speaker 2: We're here. Next week's a big week. We got a
- 21:52Speaker 2: lot of bold predictions to make. We've got a lot
- 21:54Speaker 2: of hot takes to give. It's gonna heat up here.
- 21:57Speaker 6: Wait, are we gonna do the first Pontoon parlay this week?
- 21:59Speaker 2: Probably next weeting?
- 22:02Speaker 4: Look, look, everybody gets the preseason.
- 22:04Speaker 1: We can do it.
- 22:07Speaker 2: One that does, one that doesn't count, is there?
- 22:11Speaker 4: Let me accounts you can. You can play some shekels on.
- 22:13Speaker 2: It, all right. Usually when you when you at something
- 22:16Speaker 2: when it doesn't count, you win.
- 22:21Speaker 3: So we have So Ioway stayed at Kansas State, which
- 22:24Speaker 3: is in Dublin. As we know, I had host State
- 22:26Speaker 3: at u n l V Fresno State at Kansas Sam
- 22:29Speaker 3: Houston at Western Kentucky, and Stanford at Hawaii as an underdog.
- 22:33Speaker 3: By the way, So right now in Dublin, Kansas State's
- 22:36Speaker 3: a three point favorite. I'd hostate. It's an FCS team,
- 22:40Speaker 3: So we gotta we go to go try to find
- 22:41Speaker 3: a line on that game. Fresno State Kansas. Kansas is
- 22:45Speaker 3: a thirteen point favorite. Western Kentucky a ten point favorite
- 22:48Speaker 3: over Sam Houston when they dropped the state used to
- 22:50Speaker 3: be Sam Houston state.
- 22:51Speaker 2: They dropped the state.
- 22:52Speaker 4: Yeah, just Sam Houston.
- 22:53Speaker 2: Yeah, what in the that's where my brain went to.
- 22:57Speaker 4: And then Hawaii too, and a half point four favorite
- 23:00Speaker 4: over Stanford.
- 23:02Speaker 5: It's so funny. It makes sense though, travel where they're located.
- 23:05Speaker 8: You go look at their discrepancy home versus away in Hawaii.
- 23:10Speaker 5: It makes sense why they were a favorite. Yeah, Like
- 23:11Speaker 5: they're really.
- 23:12Speaker 2: Good at home and travel.
- 23:15Speaker 3: Yeah different probably five hours from the West coast though,
- 23:19Speaker 3: five hours probably from the Bay Area to Hawaii and
- 23:22Speaker 3: a plane not too bad.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Uh, from east to west is stuff. Going west to
- 23:27Speaker 2: east a lot easier.
- 23:31Speaker 4: I didn't like either one of them. Does Frank Reich
- 23:35Speaker 4: and Andrew Luck want to lose their first game to Hawaii?
- 23:40Speaker 5: Coach g very well could.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Not great.
- 23:45Speaker 3: They don't want to talk about when you talking about
- 23:47Speaker 3: Timmy Chains Hawaii when he was a player, he's a
- 23:50Speaker 3: coach now, when I talking about Colt Brnan's Hawaii. Yeah,
- 23:53Speaker 3: we're talking about von Bess.
- 23:55Speaker 2: Who Hawaii is this?
- 23:56Speaker 3: Uh well, Timmy's a coach, but I'm saying, like the quarterback,
- 24:00Speaker 3: it's not the same. Remember like every year, we knew
- 24:02Speaker 3: who the quarterback was of Hawaii for a long time,
- 24:05Speaker 3: like a long stretch, because.
- 24:06Speaker 4: They were throwing for a bazillion yards, averaging.
- 24:08Speaker 2: About seven fifty a game. Back when most teams had fullbacks.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Every team should the last fullback, Uh Luke Weaver.
- 24:20Speaker 3: You know the last two teams won a national championship,
- 24:22Speaker 3: but both featured a fullback Michigan Ohio State, bring it back,
- 24:26Speaker 3: that's why.
- 24:27Speaker 4: And definitely don't know Luke Weaver.
- 24:29Speaker 2: And they went under center. And you know what when
- 24:31Speaker 2: what you can't do when you're under center?
- 24:34Speaker 4: Clap, clap the answer.
- 24:37Speaker 2: People are talking, Yeah, okay, can't do this. Don't look
- 24:40Speaker 2: at slap count and you gotta actually use your your mouth,
- 24:46Speaker 2: say words that mean something and say hot and try
- 24:49Speaker 2: to draw people off sides and use inflections.
- 24:52Speaker 6: Okay, wait, I actually think Luke Weaver is the backup.
- 24:58Speaker 5: Alohada, Yeah, that was right there there. It was back
- 25:01Speaker 5: up last year. Six touchdowns.
- 25:04Speaker 2: Speaking of like just reading people's names out, like I
- 25:07Speaker 2: respect what you do during the game, reading people's names
- 25:10Speaker 2: for the first time and pronouncing them. I just had
- 25:13Speaker 2: I was just reading about Illinois players.
- 25:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:15Speaker 2: I couldn't pronounce pretty simple names too.
- 25:17Speaker 4: Did you ever have to pronounce you hear my story
- 25:19Speaker 4: about U C l A.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Nope? All right?
- 25:22Speaker 4: So are they wait?
- 25:24Speaker 2: Los Angeles?
- 25:26Speaker 4: Yeah, they're the other team in LA.
- 25:29Speaker 3: They obviously look they have a lot of interesting long
- 25:35Speaker 3: uh you know, last names, a lot of island last names.
- 25:38Speaker 2: Uh.
- 25:38Speaker 4: So you know a lot of their players come from.
- 25:41Speaker 3: And I ran from doing a pregame show in series
- 25:47Speaker 3: six a m which a Laundra came and hung out
- 25:49Speaker 3: with us as me and Bob and we did one
- 25:52Speaker 3: at the ESPN trailer at the o g walk Ons.
- 25:55Speaker 3: I mean it was pretty much like going up to
- 25:57Speaker 3: almost game time, like I was gonna have like three
- 26:00Speaker 3: minutes extra time maybe. So I kind of got a
- 26:03Speaker 3: run from there because they couldn't find me a golf cart,
- 26:05Speaker 3: which is wild.
- 26:07Speaker 2: Wait didn't I I came on the show that day, Yeah, yeah.
- 26:09Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, okay, person Bobby, and they couldn't find me
- 26:12Speaker 3: a golf cart. So I'm running across campus. I'm sweating,
- 26:15Speaker 3: like I stole something and I get into the booth
- 26:17Speaker 3: and I've got three minutes, and like I had seen
- 26:20Speaker 3: them and I worked them a little bit. But like
- 26:22Speaker 3: when you're out of breath and you come and there
- 26:25Speaker 3: is a lot of last names with a lot of
- 26:27Speaker 3: different syllables. Boy, every one of every one of them,
- 26:33Speaker 3: every single one of them. And uh, like that's the
- 26:36Speaker 3: only time that I've ever worried about that because I
- 26:39Speaker 3: had to get the starting lineup. So I gotta, I gotta,
- 26:42Speaker 3: I gotta, you know, and you want Look, that's their name.
- 26:45Speaker 3: You don't want to pronounce it wrong. They're prideful, just
- 26:47Speaker 3: like they should be about their name. Oh boy, that
- 26:50Speaker 3: was added to the sweat.
- 26:52Speaker 5: How much trouble did our guy T Bob have with
- 26:55Speaker 5: those names? My gosh, yeah he did.
- 26:58Speaker 2: I think.
- 26:58Speaker 6: I mean I kind of vouched to get it too,
- 27:00Speaker 6: because I was in the elevator when Jake ran in
- 27:03Speaker 6: the elevator and he was indeed like sweating it out
- 27:06Speaker 6: of breath.
- 27:07Speaker 2: Yeah, winded, I was, so how did how do you
- 27:10Speaker 2: think you did? Did you stumble?
- 27:12Speaker 7: Uh?
- 27:12Speaker 2: There was one stumbled a lot.
- 27:14Speaker 3: There was one that I kind of had to take
- 27:17Speaker 3: a pretty decent pause in between syllables.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Well, pretty decent, Philly. I doubt many of the UCLA
- 27:24Speaker 2: families were listening to the call.
- 27:26Speaker 4: Well that's fair.
- 27:27Speaker 3: Thankfully, our former Playboy play guy for the Chargers, Josh
- 27:31Speaker 3: Lewin is now the play by play for UCLA and
- 27:34Speaker 3: I on the run shot in text. I was like, Josh,
- 27:38Speaker 3: can you meet me in front of Lshu's booth? And
- 27:41Speaker 3: he gave me like a ninety second like, Hey, here's
- 27:46Speaker 3: the one you're probably gonna have some trouble with. Shout
- 27:48Speaker 3: out to Joshua.
- 27:49Speaker 2: When we went to SEC Media that you printed out
- 27:51Speaker 2: all the names with like the way you pronounce it.
- 27:54Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, for sure, that's big, big for me. I
- 27:58Speaker 3: looked at it, yeah, cause you know there's something about
- 28:02Speaker 3: just going for it. I get that, but you know
- 28:05Speaker 3: I do some radio shows with some people that would
- 28:06Speaker 3: just go for it, and I'm like, oh, oh, oh,
- 28:10Speaker 3: you do what every day? That is not what the
- 28:12Speaker 3: guy that just goes for And there's not the way
- 28:15Speaker 3: you say that fella's name.
- 28:17Speaker 6: It took me a really long time to get I
- 28:19Speaker 6: Maliyava right.
- 28:20Speaker 3: For some Yeah, it took a lot of people to
- 28:23Speaker 3: a tongue about Lola a long time, and that one's
- 28:25Speaker 3: not actually bad.
- 28:26Speaker 5: No, once you say it, yeah, I'll still say tag
- 28:29Speaker 5: of law. Well you say it wrong, yeah, but I
- 28:32Speaker 5: mean I just I like it better THO way.
- 28:34Speaker 4: Well, it's not his name, it's disrespectful. If you called
- 28:37Speaker 4: you Tyler, I mean Tyler Sharpy.
- 28:40Speaker 5: I mean, there's no E.
- 28:42Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. I'm just saying, and how it's spelled out, Well,
- 28:46Speaker 4: it's disrespectful.
- 28:49Speaker 5: You don't He don't mind.
- 28:51Speaker 6: I think he listens every morning and he doesn't appreciate
- 28:54Speaker 6: that Tyler is calling him.
- 28:57Speaker 4: Yep.
- 29:01Speaker 3: Oh, this is from mister big five five three until
- 29:04Speaker 3: the by four chat. Nothing like chase chasing losses on
- 29:07Speaker 3: a bad betting.

- 29:44Speaker 3: TV in the locker room. I'm like, man, why is

- 29:50Speaker 3: Rainbow Warriors cover that day.
- 29:52Speaker 2: It's usually like your usually eyeball what the line is
- 29:55Speaker 2: on that one? But you're usually it's like, all right,
- 29:58Speaker 2: if the over unders low eighty, I'm taking it. If

- 35:30Speaker 5: I'm good with twelvelve it is fine, good with twelve,
- 35:34Speaker 5: maybe even eight.
- 35:36Speaker 4: Just me, I would be okay, Like, I'm I'm not
- 35:38Speaker 4: going to twenty four or twenty eight.
- 35:40Speaker 2: I wouldn't fight sixty ridiculous.
- 35:42Speaker 5: I would if anything, I'd drop it.
- 35:45Speaker 2: I wouldn't drop it.
- 35:46Speaker 4: No, sixteen the most. I'm good with twelve, though I
- 35:48Speaker 4: like twelve.
- 35:49Speaker 2: I'm okay with any number they choose. Actually, like, I'm
- 35:51Speaker 2: not going to fight.
- 35:52Speaker 4: It twenty eight. So they're trying to get work twenty.
- 35:55Speaker 2: It's a lot.
- 35:56Speaker 3: They're trying to get seven automatic qualifiers from the big ten,
- 36:00Speaker 3: the SEC.
- 36:00Speaker 6: Each like it's so I feel like, I just don't
- 36:05Speaker 6: feel like if you're at twenty, if you're the twenty
- 36:07Speaker 6: eighth team in the playoffs, there's no argument for you
- 36:10Speaker 6: to have like been even close to winning the national five.
- 36:14Speaker 8: There were first round games last year that weren't that competitive.
- 36:18Speaker 8: You can put twenty eight of them in there barely
- 36:20Speaker 8: five year.
- 36:21Speaker 2: Every year there's gonna be uncompetitive games, but there's gonna
- 36:24Speaker 2: be some that are very competitive.
- 36:25Speaker 5: There's just no argument.
- 36:26Speaker 2: I don't like. I don't like the automatic qualifier.
- 36:29Speaker 4: That's stupid.
- 36:29Speaker 2: I'd be okay, with anything.
- 36:31Speaker 6: You're handing people playoffs, four teams playoffs.
- 36:36Speaker 2: I'd rather watch that than a random bowl game that
- 36:38Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything that it did at that point. Okay,
- 36:45Speaker 2: well in that structure, yeah, with twelve people in the playoffs,
- 36:52Speaker 2: other bowl games don't matter, pop tart poles.
- 36:55Speaker 6: Why why even play a regular season?
- 37:00Speaker 2: Just go straight to the playoff? I mean, how many
- 37:01Speaker 2: would you have?
- 37:02Speaker 8: Six games in the regular season, because they're gonna say
- 37:04Speaker 8: that's too many games, you guys, we gotta limit what
- 37:06Speaker 8: they do. If six regular season games and then what
- 37:09Speaker 8: six more in the playoffs.
- 37:10Speaker 2: I'm good. Why's basketball play regular season?
- 37:15Speaker 5: That's suppose a difference.
- 37:16Speaker 3: Three hundred something takes a different sport for sure, and
- 37:19Speaker 3: it's not the wear and tear on your body. And
- 37:21Speaker 3: you'd have to get rid of conference championship games, you'd
- 37:24Speaker 3: have to change the schedule.
- 37:25Speaker 2: I don't like automatic qualifiers.
- 37:26Speaker 4: No, I think that's done.
- 37:28Speaker 6: I mean, there's my biggest thing. Sorry, I was just
- 37:31Speaker 6: gonna say that, Like, my biggest thing about it is sure,
- 37:34Speaker 6: maybe you can make an argument for the when we
- 37:37Speaker 6: used to have the four team playoff, Like, maybe you
- 37:39Speaker 6: can make an argument for the fifth team should have
- 37:41Speaker 6: got in.
- 37:41Speaker 5: Right, Maybe you can make.
- 37:42Speaker 6: An argument even that South Carolina, Alabama, whatever last year
- 37:46Speaker 6: could have got the thirteenth team could have gone in
- 37:48Speaker 6: and maybe done better than the other teams. You cannot
- 37:51Speaker 6: make an argument for the sixteenth team, the twenty fourth team,
- 37:55Speaker 6: the twenty like it's twenty ninth seas so stupid.
- 37:57Speaker 2: There's always gonna be an argument, right, no matter what.
- 38:00Speaker 5: But it's a dumb argument. There were four vertus can get.
- 38:03Speaker 2: It, all right, all right, all right, do play in games?
- 38:06Speaker 4: All right, let's stop. I hate playoff discussion. I hate
- 38:09Speaker 4: its dumb.
- 38:10Speaker 2: It's just fun. I don't care what.
- 38:13Speaker 4: Fourteen conferences automatically get in. You get a car, You
- 38:19Speaker 4: get a car, You get a car.
- 38:22Speaker 2: May people play into it and do it on the
- 38:23Speaker 2: conference championship week so it's not just the conference champions
- 38:27Speaker 2: the best thing in the league. I have to play
- 38:28Speaker 2: one more.

- 39:16Speaker 4: It's also true. A smile on your face, a song
- 39:18Speaker 4: in your heart. Hashtag well I like this one a lot.
- 39:22Speaker 4: Hashtag go to be mailbag.
- 39:23Speaker 3: What is the most underappreciated LSU sports moment of the
- 39:27Speaker 3: last ten years?
- 39:29Speaker 4: I got mine? My else ten All y'all think about it?
- 39:34Speaker 3: Uh tdp ty Davis Price running all over the Florida Gators.
- 39:40Speaker 3: They ran counter, they ran counter again, and then they
- 39:44Speaker 3: finished it off with counter.
- 39:45Speaker 4: And there wasn't a damn thing the Florida Gators could do.
- 39:48Speaker 3: They had this defensive end. I think you wore number one.
- 39:52Speaker 3: He looked all pretty in his uniform. He was so
- 39:54Speaker 3: tired of mash Burn hitting him and dominating him. By
- 39:57Speaker 3: the end of that game, he quit. He tapped out
- 40:00Speaker 3: on a football field that It's the greatest rushing performance
- 40:04Speaker 3: in LSU football history, all the running backs, all the games.
- 40:09Speaker 3: That is number one, and it was on the same
- 40:11Speaker 3: damn play that they couldn't stop.
- 40:13Speaker 4: That is football erotica. TDP Versus Florida. Doesn't get talked
- 40:18Speaker 4: about it enough because.
- 40:19Speaker 3: The team didn't end up being a championship or like
- 40:21Speaker 3: a you know, I got ten win team, I.
- 40:26Speaker 2: Got two, one of the LSU winning national championship in gymnastics.
- 40:33Speaker 2: I know we like gymnastics a lot, but probably the
- 40:35Speaker 2: least talked about things like from the yearly standpoint.
- 40:37Speaker 4: From other maybe other sources, like we have coach A
- 40:40Speaker 4: Clark on every Friday. But I know what you're saying.
- 40:42Speaker 8: Yeah, between the two baseball Natties and a women's basketball Natties.
- 40:47Speaker 5: So to your point, it kind of does get lost.
- 40:49Speaker 2: Get lost, but a huge, huge deal.
- 40:51Speaker 4: I like that.
- 40:52Speaker 2: My other one would be a person David Randon.
- 40:57Speaker 4: I like that one.
- 40:58Speaker 2: Just think what happened after him. Him leaving single handedly
- 41:07Speaker 2: cost us another national championship in twenty twenty three.
- 41:16Speaker 4: I mean, I think you and I could have gone
- 41:18Speaker 4: out there.
- 41:18Speaker 2: And we would have won a national championship with Alandra
- 41:21Speaker 2: as a defensive coordinator.
- 41:22Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a shot at Alandra kind of a
- 41:26Speaker 4: little bit.
- 41:26Speaker 2: It was that shot. No, we're what we've taught you already.
- 41:30Speaker 2: You know what Nickel defense, all right. I don't know.
- 41:34Speaker 6: Last ten years, in the last ten years, I think
- 41:39Speaker 6: one of the underappreciated moments in LSU Sports's uh basket
- 41:44Speaker 6: men's basketball run in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen made it
- 41:48Speaker 6: to Sweet sixteen, won the SEC championship, headed up by
- 41:52Speaker 6: my goat, Will Wade.
- 41:53Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 41:53Speaker 6: Uh, that was just a great run and it was
- 41:56Speaker 6: like one of the best seasons that LSU men's basketball
- 41:59Speaker 6: had in a very long time. And it was also
- 42:02Speaker 6: the last good season that they had. So I think
- 42:05Speaker 6: it underappreciated. I mean, I don't think Will Wade is,
- 42:08Speaker 6: but I think that season I agree that I don't
- 42:10Speaker 6: think we celebrated it enough because I think we thought
- 42:13Speaker 6: we were gonna have Will Wade for a lot longer
- 42:14Speaker 6: than that.
- 42:15Speaker 4: For sure, no doubt about it.
- 42:17Speaker 3: That.
- 42:18Speaker 8: Yeah, I was gonna go to the specific game like
- 42:20Speaker 8: where they beat Vanderbilt to do it, because if you remember,
- 42:23Speaker 8: like Givante Smart got suspended, that was the way like
- 42:25Speaker 8: when you look back on it, you think of other things,
- 42:28Speaker 8: but not what a person. So I'll go person as well.
- 42:31Speaker 8: Danny yutly to me is incredibly underappreciated. Like LSU, quarterback
- 42:37Speaker 8: play was awful. Etling came in and he didn't light
- 42:40Speaker 8: the world on fire, but he stabilized that situation. He
- 42:43Speaker 8: helped out coach Oh year one, kind of get that
- 42:46Speaker 8: program rolling moving in the right direction. The next year
- 42:49Speaker 8: you springboard that, bring in a Joe Burrow. The rest
- 42:52Speaker 8: is history. Really, since Danny Uttling, you've had good quarterback
- 42:55Speaker 8: play year in and year out. I think he came
- 42:57Speaker 8: in kind of changed the culture a little bit, and
- 42:59Speaker 8: it kind of all started with Danny Etling.
- 43:01Speaker 5: I think he's a little undappreciated.
- 43:02Speaker 3: Shout out to Danny. Danny Etling is good at football.
- 43:06Speaker 3: It used to be the old saying, all right, well
- 43:08Speaker 3: take a break. We've got Nick Underhill joining us in
- 43:11Speaker 3: about ten minutes from now to break down all the
- 43:13Speaker 3: latest and greatest with the New Orleans Saints. A lot
- 43:16Speaker 3: still to get to stay locked in here with us
- 43:18Speaker 3: on OTV off the bench. All right, it is tailgating season.

- 43:41Speaker 3: It's not just a tenth, it's not just a generator.
- 43:43Speaker 3: It's not just the TV.

- 43:58Speaker 4: is always a great time to.
- 43:59Speaker 2: Go for When I go to a restaurant or go

- 44:58Speaker 3: quarterback in a bowl game and throwing for three touchdown
- 45:02Speaker 3: passes in the bowl game.
- 45:03Speaker 4: Now, did LSU lose? Absolutely? We all know the scholarship
- 45:06Speaker 4: players they had less than forty.
- 45:08Speaker 3: But John Trey went back there, did everything that he
- 45:12Speaker 3: could for the LSU Tigers, and after the game one
- 45:15Speaker 3: of my favorite quotes, you like, if we got eleven,
- 45:17Speaker 3: we're gonna play.
- 45:18Speaker 4: If we got eleven, we gonna play. And they basically
- 45:21Speaker 4: had eleven.
- 45:21Speaker 3: Any went out there and through three touchdown passes, including
- 45:24Speaker 3: a touchdown on the last play of the game.
- 45:26Speaker 4: LSU lost.
- 45:27Speaker 2: Whatever.
- 45:27Speaker 4: Still very fun time to go out there and watch
- 45:30Speaker 4: him get to play quarterback.
- 45:32Speaker 2: Let me answer your question with a questions. I currently
- 45:36Speaker 2: have a pulse. Yep, Yes, I did.
- 45:37Speaker 3: Let's play football. What Jeff Brum that's a great quote.
