0:38
Previewing on Friday recapping on Monday Bama pretty good
0:41
weekend some carnage. A lot of big high ranked schools
0:45
going down in flames. We got a lot of ground to cover.
0:48
How are you? I'm doing great.
0:51
Yeah, this was this was Chaos weekend, I think.
0:53
It really was. Yep.
0:54
I'd love to see it. Yeah.
0:56
Started on Friday night. And we'll get into those games
0:59
once we, you know, get to the respective conferences.
1:01
So let's start Trent Condon in the Big 12.
1:05
Is Texas Tech one of those highly ranked teams?
1:08
They fall now their starting quarterback, Morton, did not
1:11
play in the game. Is that taking?
1:14
Is that being unfair to Arizona State?
1:18
Your thoughts? I don't think it's unfair to
1:20
Arizona State. Really.
1:21
My biggest take away of that game was Sam Levitt, who wasn't
1:24
perfect by any means. I mean, he missed some throws.
1:26
We talked about Garnowski at the top and being a tough, tough
1:29
guy. Sam Levitt, he's got some tough
1:31
guy to him. I mean, doctor, they got Tyson,
1:33
but he's banged up. He just gutted and willed and
1:37
almost gave it away. But then when he needed to
1:39
respond, he was there and made the plays.
1:41
A late in that football game, I walked away more impressed by
1:44
Sam Levitt and what we saw out of him because I don't know if
1:47
he had that kind of kind of it's easy to be the front runner,
1:50
right? But you got to dig a little bit
1:52
deeper. I walked away a press by him.
1:54
Texas Tech. It's not over.
1:56
I mean, we we do this too many times where we just want to
1:59
throw dirt on people. But more than anything to
2:01
survive after you give one away. We've seen so many teams fall by
2:04
the wayside there. I thought that was impressive by
2:06
ASU because that you guys know that was not a team I was a
2:09
believer in coming into. This No, I'm with you.
2:11
They're right back in things are they're one of a whole bunch of
2:13
teams in five and two and I love this conference be because of
2:16
that. Bama Utah falls to BYUI thought
2:20
they were a cinch. We talked about Texas Tech
2:22
Arizona State, want to get your thoughts on that.
2:24
Those were the biggies. Maybe Houston very much alive as
2:27
well in that conference. TCU is not out of it.
2:31
And boy, oh boy, how bad is West Virginia?
2:36
That's pretty bad, yeah. Pretty bad.
2:37
Your thoughts on the Big 12 Bama?
2:40
Yeah. And you know, look who else is
2:41
sitting there undefeated. Oh, Cincinnati, right?
2:44
Yeah. So who I mean, atop that
2:45
conference, I mean BYU and Cincinnati, who had that Week 9,
2:50
right. So.
2:51
But we it goes back to what we said from the very beginning in
2:55
the offseason to the conference previews.
2:57
This conference is just there were six or seventeen or five
3:01
maybe that could win it. I didn't think Cincinnati would
3:05
be in the mix this late, but yet here they are.
3:08
I wasn't sure that BYU, I thought BYU would be good.
3:11
I thought it was Arizona State, Texas Tech, Houston, TCU,
3:14
Baylor, Right. Well, right now, 2 undefeated
3:17
teams. Yeah.
3:19
And Arizona State, Utah might be buried.
3:22
I mean, I don't know that they've got enough to claw over
3:25
all those teams to get into the conference championship game.
3:29
And if I don't know if this is, I still think this is A1 bid
3:33
league. I don't, I don't know that for
3:37
sure, but I, I think it probably is unless, you know, somehow BYU
3:43
finishes undefeated and and a one loss team, you know, knocks
3:46
him out, but that's for another day on the field.
3:50
I mean, the surprise to me really was BYU being in Utah.
3:53
I I thought, you know, I tried to tell Trent they were done,
3:55
but he wouldn't listen, you know, but I don't know how
4:00
they're 7 and O now or whatever. Yeah, 7 and O, but they are and
4:04
they've got some bigger fish maybe down the road, but again,
4:08
all you can be. They come to Iowa State, I guess
4:10
this week, right. So that's a big one.
4:13
They still have to go to they still have to go to Lubbock.
4:15
So I think there's a couple losses potentially on that
4:19
schedule, but again, talked about it seven weeks.
4:22
What's your best you can be 7 and O here they are, but
4:26
disappointed in Utah. The two really good teams they
4:29
played this year they haven't beat.
4:31
And I agree with you on Levitt. I mean, the guy's just got, he's
4:35
got some toughness to it, I think.
4:39
So you discount that. And the Texas Tech might be the
4:42
one team that could sneak in without one in the conference.
4:46
But with this loss? I don't know anymore.
4:48
That's true. I mean, can you get in as a two
4:50
loss team? I think you got to be a one
4:52
loss, which means, you know, somebody's going to have to get
4:54
undefeated and upset. So, but yeah, I mean, Texas
4:59
Tech, that I guess that game surprised me, maybe not so much
5:01
because the quarterback didn't play, but again, Levitt, I mean,
5:05
I picked Arizona State at the beginning of the season just
5:07
because I liked, I know they lost a lot, but I liked what
5:10
they had with Tyson and Levitt. I think the Levitt, Levitt being
5:14
injured against Utah was without a doubt a factor in that game.
5:17
I don't know that they win it if he plays, but they didn't have a
5:20
chance without him. So again, Big 12 kind of what we
5:23
thought in terms of chaos and anybody can win it.
5:26
And this is going to be a mad dash now, I guess for the last
5:28
what, 5-6 weeks of the season, 4 or 5, whatever we're down to to
5:33
see who gets in that championship game because I
5:35
think it is A1 bid league. And if it's not, then it's going
5:39
to be an upset. But I still think Texas Tech is
5:42
the team is the best team in that conference when fully
5:46
healthy. But they got to stay fully
5:48
healthy and they can't afford another slip up.
5:50
I'm with you. I think they are as well.
5:51
I think the only way it could have happened, Bama is A2
5:53
bidder. If Texas Tech would have been
5:55
unbeaten and then one of those one loss would have beat them in
5:58
the championship game. And as one of you said, I mean,
6:01
Utah's 2 losses, they're two biggest, two biggest opponents,
6:05
right? BYU who's unbeaten and Texas
6:07
Tech and they all have tiebreakers.
6:09
Both of those schools over Utah. Utah might be out.
6:12
Trent, the Big 10. So it doesn't feel like a Big 10
6:15
game, but I guess it was at least halfway there.
6:17
The USC, Notre Dame. Notre Dame gets a win.
6:20
Really for them, that's all that matters.
6:22
Now. They need USC not to fall in
6:24
their faces. The decision by Lincoln Riley
6:27
and the driving rain to go with a wide receiver pass, it just,
6:31
it's unthinkable. There were plenty of
6:34
opportunities there and the luck of the Irish once again goes
6:37
their way. USC That's a lot of worship.
6:40
Was really good. You got to give him some credit.
6:42
Well, that team, they're built offensively so good and Carr
6:46
didn't certainly have his best game by any means, but.
6:49
What do you have? An interception that he threw
6:51
running. Around but not just love, I mean
6:53
you can throw 1-2 punch with price in there too.
6:55
Yeah, this, yeah. This team has built so
6:57
differently than last year where it was kind of ugly offensively
7:00
and just running the football. Now, yeah, it's running the
7:02
football, but they're going to be able to score with teams and
7:05
that defense is getting better. Not great, but getting better.
7:08
Yeah, Bama, the the Big 10. Yeah, the Big 10 I think is I
7:14
don't they're not in trouble, obviously.
7:15
Again, Ohio State, best team in the country.
7:18
I think far and away by anybody else.
7:22
Indiana done what they needed to do.
7:23
I think they're rising up to #2 Oregon obviously right there.
7:30
Who are they only going to get three teams in?
7:32
No, I think, well, no, they'll find.
7:35
They'll be who? Were you put 6 in their Bama
7:37
from the year SEC you got? Seven no, I don't know.
7:41
I'm just saying I'm looking at the big 10 standings right now.
7:44
OK Indiana, Ohio State, Oregon, Northwestern.
7:48
Nope. USC, they still got to go to
7:52
Oregon, but if they if they. Who's USC got left You.
7:55
I know they got. They got to go to Oregon.
8:00
They dropped that. They're done.
8:02
Iowa. Michigan still has Ohio State to
8:05
play, right? That'd be 3 losses there.
8:08
Minnesota, they're not a playoff team.
8:10
UCLA, they're not a play, I mean.
8:13
Put them in. They go 8 and four.
8:14
Put them in. It's been a great story.
8:17
Seriously. I mean, we're, we're, that's
8:19
what I'm saying. That was big loss.
8:21
I can't believe I'm saying this. Maybe it's Iowa if Iowa runs
8:25
the. Table then they're ABS they are
8:26
a lot to be in a 10 and two yes Illinois are they dead at 10:00
8:30
and 2:00? The Indiana Pacer moves the
8:33
other loss. Yeah, the Indiana loss is going
8:36
to be debilitating in Ohio State, but still, you lose 2-2,
8:40
maybe the best two teams in the country.
8:42
They're alive. And you're 10 and 2.
8:43
They're alive. Yep, they're alive.
8:45
Yeah, I'm just saying I think that I think the USC loss hurt
8:51
the conference big time because if USC would have won that game.
8:55
At Notre Dame One. More slip up and they knock
9:00
Notre Dame out and that opens up another spot.
9:02
Notre Dame right now is in OK USC is the brand.
9:06
That's who, that's who they want, right?
9:08
Michigan, another one if you're looking at brand names down
9:11
there, USC, Michigan, Michigan again got Ohio State.
9:14
USC still has to go to Oregon. Those they lose those games.
9:17
Now you're going to have, you're going to have an Iowa, possibly
9:21
an Illinois. Do I pick to go in again?
9:24
I think Illinois is Illinois is still alive.
9:26
I was still alive. I'm just saying there's not much
9:30
room for error for a fourth team.
9:31
And I'm not saying the SEC needs six or seven.
9:34
That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that that loss I
9:36
think had more playoff ramifications maybe than
9:40
possibly any then then we know of outside of those two teams.
9:44
It knocked out her name. Out well and you come full
9:47
circle and you go through, you get to 12 teams.
9:50
Are we going to be right back to it again?
9:52
We're going to be arguing about nine to three teams.
9:55
I think right, yes, we are. I think we are at this point or
9:58
we're going to be arguing about a nine and a ten and two Big 10,
10:02
fourth Big 10 versus A10 and two fifth SEC.
10:07
That's what we're going to be arguing about, I think.
10:08
It's going to be the 9 and threes again.
10:11
We might be. Yeah, but yeah, I, I, I think
10:15
that was AI think that was a big, a big loss for the
10:18
conference. You know, the rest of it really
10:20
not a whole lot of news, I don't think out of there this weekend.
10:23
Good win for Michigan, kind of kept their pulse alive, I guess.
10:26
But other than, you know, big win for Iowa.
10:28
I know you guys. Yeah, big win again, you know, 2
10:32
losses sitting there, but three in one in the Big 10.
10:34
So that was a, that was a costly loss for the conference, I
10:37
think. I saw I saw a tweet on they were
10:39
showing the US UCLA highlight somebody tweet.
10:42
The blonde kid is freaking Vince Lombardi.
10:45
The blonde kid. The blonde kid is something.
10:49
Yeah, he really is. What a it really is.
10:52
What a turn around for you to the blonde kid is Vince
10:55
Lombardi. All right, let's get to the SEC.
10:58
Trent Condon. Oh, Lane, you had him just where
11:01
you wanted him. I.
11:02
Know he did. Five straight drives, They're
11:04
just doing whatever they want. I was.
11:06
Pulling for him. And then the fourth quarter
11:08
happened and Kirby does Kirby things and the ratchets up the
11:11
pressure and Chambliss when he finished two of 10, he was bad
11:15
or one of ten maybe in his final 10 throws it was bad.
11:17
He. Looked like a backup quarterback
11:19
the first time in a while. Down the stretch, but that's
11:21
what Kirby does. They but they have to evolve a
11:24
different way. And when Georgia's at their best
11:26
is when they get that chip on the shoulder and Kirby's got a
11:29
lot of ammunition now keep that rat poison out of there that
11:32
that David used to talk about all the time and now get to have
11:34
that chip on the shoulder. And I think Georgia has it.
11:37
They're alive still to make a run.
11:39
And I want Gunner Stockton. I want that dude, Michael.
11:41
He was really good. Trenton.
11:43
I'm not a gunner Stockton guy, but I was impressed by him.
11:45
You know, I was also impressed by the middle of the game Lane
11:47
Kiffin to that to one of the official I was.
11:50
Oh my gosh, that was so funny. I narrowly peed my.
11:53
Pants if if Yeah, people missed it.
11:55
So Lane calls a timeout, Yeah. And there's a clip of him coming
11:58
over the ref, coming over the sideline and he says I wasn't
12:02
calling timeout. He was pointing like he's doing
12:04
that his hand. Signal I was clapping.
12:05
Yeah, I was clapping. The ref got a kick out of it
12:08
too. Because he knew obviously the
12:09
week before Kirby Smart did get away with it for Georgia Bama.
12:13
I was I was impressed by Bama. I am most weeks, but maybe my
12:17
favorite story, the SEC and I'm sure that you know, you just
12:22
family the whole story. It's such a great story watching
12:26
Diego Pavia. He's awesome.
12:27
Speaking of the Heisman winner. Well, he's in the hunt.
12:31
Yeah, he's absolutely. Who would you take over, Simpson
12:34
or him? All right, Tyson is doing it.
12:38
I agree. I agree.
12:39
Diego Pavi is doing this. Hey, I voted for the Boise State
12:43
guy last year. I'm open to a Vanderbilt guy.
12:45
You got a. 5 foot nine former wrestler.
12:47
Yeah, it's Diego Pavi. I know it's not close.
12:51
Yeah, I'm look at I'm, I'm with you.
12:53
I could buy that and I might, I just may I bam the SEC.
12:56
Your thoughts on the conference? Yeah, the conference as a whole,
13:00
I think it was a pretty good weekend.
13:04
The Ole Miss loss, listen, that was, it's a game they should
13:07
have won. The moment really seemed and not
13:09
really the moment maybe the quarter, you know, finishing it
13:13
kind of got too big. And that is kind of the typical
13:18
Lane Kiffin, you know, for all these jobs that he's in on Penn
13:20
State now, Florida Napier wins a game and lose it and gets and
13:24
gets fired, which by the way, third time in five years of SEC
13:28
coach has been fired after a week after state.
13:31
How about that? But anyway, I think it you're
13:35
right, Kirby and and Georgia kind of did what they do.
13:38
We saw it against Tennessee. We saw it again this weekend,
13:42
which which kind of makes that Alabama win right now.
13:46
To me going to Athens and you know, or me Crimson, that's
13:50
fine. I think that's the best win that
13:52
any team has on the road this year.
13:53
I know A&M won in Notre Dame. I know Indiana won in Oregon,
13:57
but against that team at home with a 33 game-winning streak
14:01
and you see what they've done and how they do it and how
14:04
they're never out of a game. To be able to finish them in
14:07
Athens, I thought it it to me just kind of resonates.
14:11
You mentioned Vanderbilt, guys, this was no fluke.
14:15
Vanderbilt, I watched this game start to finish.
14:17
Vanderbilt was the better team. They were more physical, they
14:21
were better coached. Garrett Nussmeyer, you're
14:24
talking about a tough guy. Now he, I mean, he may have a
14:27
concussion. He may have a Bruce Sternum.
14:30
They were beating the absolute crap out of him and he still
14:33
hung in there and made some throws.
14:35
But that is just, I think this is LSU going to go down in
14:40
flames again under Brian Kelly? And that is just such an odd
14:44
marriage. It's been odd from the start.
14:45
I think it's over. I do too.
14:48
But, you know, listen, they're still in it technically, but
14:52
they've got A&M, right? They still got to go to Alabama
14:55
and they got to go to Oklahoma. They're not winning all three of
14:57
those games. No, no, something's wrong with
14:59
that offense and we're out. We've had eight weeks now,
15:02
however many they've played 7-8 weeks to look at this,
15:06
something's wrong. I don't think they can fix it.
15:08
I don't know if it's talent. I thought Chris Dorney, I was
15:11
watching the SEC nowhere. I'm going to give him credit for
15:13
this, he said. When you watched LSU and
15:15
Vanderbilt play, it was the difference between a great team
15:21
and a great collection of talent.
15:23
And that's that's basically, Yep, what you had in that game.
15:27
And I thought it was, I thought it was very well put.
15:30
You mentioned Pavia. I mean, I don't have a problem
15:32
with him, you know, being in the Heisman conversation.
15:35
I don't have a problem with him being, you know, on the podium.
15:37
I still think what Ty Simpson is doing.
15:39
I understand Pavia is doing it at Vanderbilt, but you just look
15:42
at the look at the raw numbers and I know he's throwing the
15:45
Ryan Williams and Jeremy Bernard and all this type of thing.
15:47
I get it, right. But you start looking at what
15:49
he's done since that Florida State game, and it's pretty
15:53
impressive how? Did they lose to Florida State?
15:55
I seriously. Don't know, I really don't know.
15:59
And Florida State, we talk about them I guess in a minute.
16:01
But the Josh Heifel right now is taking some heat and I think
16:06
rightfully so, because that was the most boneheaded play that
16:09
I've seen run on the goal line. You know, since since the the
16:13
Patriots Seahawks Super Bowl every every well, and I don't
16:18
know, you know, it was set up. There were 9 seconds left in the
16:23
half second down on the one. They are out of timeouts, right?
16:26
They come out in this run heavy formation that is based off of
16:28
play action. You can't and the ball off
16:31
there. Alabama knows it right.
16:33
You play actions not going to work.
16:36
Hey, when the board calls the timeout, you can see them in the
16:38
huddle. Don't bite on the play action.
16:40
They come back out. Tennessee comes out in the same
16:44
formation. Doesn't change anything off the
16:46
Alabama timeout, runs their play play action, Aguilar throws it
16:51
inside, picks it. That went from possibly 16 to 14
16:55
to 23 to 7 and Tennessee never got within 10 points.
16:59
That was it was a bad play call. Play action wasn't going to work
17:03
there. And to come out in the same set
17:05
after Alabama calls the time out to alert their defense don't
17:08
bite on it. I think was I think that was
17:10
pretty boneheaded. He was complaining a lot after
17:12
the game. Alabama still got some holes.
17:14
But you start looking at that gauntlet, Georgia, you look at
17:18
the rankings, right? You look at Georgia, Missouri,
17:21
Vanderbilt, all with one loss, that one loss is all to Alabama.
17:26
They have, they have pegged the one loss on three top 15 teams
17:31
and the other one they beat was Georgia, who's ranked #5 So I
17:34
think it's as good as any resume in the country right now.
17:38
Can they keep it up? I don't know.
17:39
I thought your Wildcats can. We're going to pick off Texas.
17:41
I was. I thought it was too A&M.
17:46
I'm telling you, Petrina is going to beat somebody.
17:48
I don't know who it is somebody, yeah.
17:52
But yeah, good weekend for the conference.
17:54
I think not only on the field, but obviously, you know, the
17:59
Florida jobs open, that's going to be a big job.
18:01
So we'll see what happens there. To the ACC Trent the beat goes
18:05
on for Georgia Tech ice. I mean, I have I don't like
18:08
Virginia. They're they're unbeaten in
18:09
conference. I don't know how this is going
18:11
to continue. Clemson, they're totally toast
18:14
now. There's no way that they're they
18:16
had to win this game to creep their slim playoff hopes alive.
18:20
It didn't go their way. SMUS 3 and all your thoughts on
18:23
the conference, the ACCTC pass. Okay, back.
18:27
No, I I was impressed as I always get Louisville.
18:31
Well. Called that game I called that
18:33
one I had that one right. I was really impressed by SMU
18:36
though. We had that on at the tailgate
18:37
until every time I looked over there just felt like they were
18:39
make it a big play and just they got 2 losses already.
18:43
But it kind of goes hand in hand with this conference.
18:46
There's going to be a team that gets there.
18:48
I just don't know if Hanes King can stay healthy.
18:50
Keep saying everybody keeps showing up every Saturday.
18:53
I mean, Duke's going in for a touchdown.
18:54
They fumble at night. I'm a 14 point swing.
18:56
Duke's done that a lot this year, haven't they?
18:58
They're their own worst enemy. I thought North Carolina might
19:01
pick off Cal, but Sagapolatelli had other ideas.
19:05
Talk about a fumble into the end zone.
19:07
Did you see that? I did not help me out.
19:09
Tell me what I missed. They were going in about 3
19:11
minutes, left the kids running into the end zone to get the go
19:15
ahead score and he fumbles at the one and Cal recovers it in
19:19
the back of the end zone, runs out the clock.
19:21
I mean, they could have won anyway.
19:22
There was a lot of time left. But yeah, it was, it was brutal.
19:25
And then of course, Oh my gosh, what is wrong with how?
19:29
Did they beat Alabama? Honest to God, I don't.
19:33
It's one of those head scratchers.
19:35
Well, and Alabama needs to keep winning and I think they do have
19:38
a little bit of wiggle room here because I think a second loss is
19:41
not going to hurt them after that gauntlet they just ran.
19:43
But that Boston, that Florida State loss is looking worse and
19:47
worse as long. Here's the thing in the ACC
19:50
guys, yeah, I'm starting to look at the standings here as I know
19:53
you guys are. If Miami doesn't make the
19:57
championship game but somehow finishes with one loss, are they
20:00
going to be in? They are two.
20:04
I just went through it. I mean, we're talking about 90
20:05
and threes. And yeah, they will.
20:07
Yeah, I would think so too. But if they don't make the
20:11
conference championship game and somebody else wanted to say it's
20:13
Georgia Tech and. Does Georgia Tech play Virginia?
20:16
Does Georgia Tech play SMU? Georgia Tech's got pit.
20:21
They've got the Syracuse, NC State, Boston College pit.
20:24
They're in Georgia, Game doesn't.
20:25
Count, Yeah, yeah. So if it's two unbeaten ACC.
20:29
Teams. I don't know if Miami's in boys.
20:32
We get SMU Miami in Dallas. You get that game.
20:36
November. 1st that's that's big Bam.
20:38

20:53
There you go so fast. We're almost in November for

21:04
come back. He covers Iowa State.
21:06
Also whited about the shooting from Iowa State Friday night.
21:09
Was it over 14 from 3? Yes.
21:11
Then we keep hearing how much while they're shooting, can you,
21:14
can you try and convince them that they're playing a scout
21:16
team 'cause they do sure do well against, you know, students.
21:20
Knock down some shots. Unbelievable.
21:23
Good thing it was an exhibition. Yeah, I mean, it doesn't count.
21:26
It doesn't count, but you just but over 14 from three really.

I'm Hillary Condon, welcome back Iowa Sports Radio Network
23:08
flagship at Des Moines sports station one O 6.3 KXNO Mr.
23:14
Monday night coming up here in about 15 minutes.
23:17
We'll get his thoughts on the double dip tonight.
23:20
You could hear the first one Bucks and Lions right here on
23:23
Des Moines sports station one O 6.3 KX&O, courtesy of our
23:26
relationship with Westwood. 1 Bucks and Lions underway tonight
23:30
at six O clock. Bill Seals joins us.
23:32
I was stayed back on the gridiron 2:30 on Saturday.
23:36
I'm still shocked that I'm saying this here comes unbeaten
23:40
BYU, but that's what they are. And Bill joins us.
23:43
Bill Trenton, Ken, thank you for coming on.
23:45
You won't hear anything injury wise in do you get to Matt
23:49
Campbell tomorrow and then the availability reports start to
23:52
trickle out on Wednesday. I guess maybe the big question
23:55
mark because it's he's been missed, there's no other way
23:58
around it, is Conradi. What do you expect?
24:01
His status? I know that apparently he was
24:03
practicing prior to leading up to the Colorado game.
24:08
What? What do you expect, Bill?
24:09
Will Conradi be back? Because he's clearly been
24:12
missed. Yeah, I, I, I expect him to be
24:16
back on Saturday. It was trending that way even
24:20
even before the bye week, as if you'll remember, I think it was
24:23
the first one or two, maybe it was 2 availability reports
24:28
before the Colorado game. He was even listed on those as
24:32
doubtful. And I, I fully expected him to
24:34
be out, that he ended up being out and then going into the bye
24:38
week. But I think it just gives the
24:39
sense, yes, he was back practicing and starting to trend
24:43
in the right direction. They get the bye weekend and
24:46
you're right, he he's going to be badly needed because we
24:49
still, we we don't know what Chase Smith, he had tweaked
24:52
something in the Colorado game and they had to have Carson
24:55
Rhodes kick off for him. So, yeah, they need Ken Rardi
24:59
back in a in a bad way. As you know, Jace Gilbert, I I
25:02
don't even think he's going to be back, it sounds like until
25:05
maybe the end of November. So yeah, it's this.
25:08
Is he it? Ken Rardi, at this point, with
25:11
the way things are shaping up, is a difference maker.
25:14
With that, Bill, what else health wise are we looking at?
25:18
It's always good to kind of get guys out there, get that bye
25:20
week, one of three now throughout the course of this
25:22
season. Who are some of the other names
25:24
that you think maybe even going to look better coming off of bye
25:27
week that really needed one? And and again, as Ken mentioned,
25:30
we'll find out more tomorrow. Yeah, I think Carson Hanson, he
25:34
had missed the the game there with a concussion.
25:38
And I would I would expect with some time that he'll, he'll be
25:41
back now coming out of the buy and that's a that's a good
25:44
thing. I, I, I don't think by any means
25:46
that he's gonna lose hold of what his role was on this team
25:52
because I think simply a Boo Sama is not going to be someone
25:55
to carry the the Rock 24 * a game like he did against
25:58
Colorado. So I think it's going to get
26:01
back into that. You know, that 55456040 ish
26:06
split there with Hanson getting the upper hand there and in
26:09
carries and that that's a good thing.
26:11
I think for this offenses, they, they really were not clicking on
26:15
all cylinders against Colorado. Getting Hanson back will be big
26:19
and then just I think there's there's a lot of guys
26:22
defensively kind of nicked up right now and I'm getting some
26:26
time off their feet again this second by week will be a good
26:29
thing and they if they just need to dial it back in.
26:32
This has not been a very good side of the ball now for for a
26:36
few weeks. It kind of started to trend that
26:39
way, even the Arkansas State game and then they came back,
26:42
performed well against Arizona. And then in the last couple
26:45
weeks it's been, it's been a struggle again.
26:47
So just getting some guys healthy on that side of the ball
26:51
will help immensely, I think. Who'd have thought this when the
26:54
schedule came out right, that the penultimate week of the
26:56
conference, we might say Cincinnati and BYU game day
27:00
might be time to get there with two unbeaten.
27:02
Now, I don't think it's going to happen.
27:04
I think I would say it's going to beat BYU this week.
27:06
Bill, the the league overall, here's where we stand.
27:08
We've got two teams at four and O.
27:10
We've got three teams at 3:00 and 1:00 and then six teams at
27:14
2:00 and two as we try and sort this thing out and the
27:17
tiebreakers are going to come into play.
27:19
Obviously you don't want to lose to Colorado, but that might not
27:22
be as bad a loss as some because Colorado is not going to factor
27:24
in when it comes to head to head.
27:26
You're not going to be looking at Colorado to potentially get
27:29
that second bid. There's conferences.
27:31
Bananas. We knew it was going to be.
27:34
Yeah, it it really is. And the Cincinnati's already got
27:37
the upper hand on the head to head on on that.
27:40
So I think the way you look at it, if you're Iowa State, it's
27:44
always that next game up that next, next snap, the next game,
27:49
you know, the next practice kind of mentality with this program.
27:52
And certainly never more so than this week against BYU.
27:56
Because if they you got to think, if they drop this one to
27:59
BYU, then then any any hopes of getting back down to Dallas or
28:03
shattered. So they've got to beat the
28:05
Cougars and and get at least a head up on them and then a
28:09
potential tiebreaker and and they just got to start playing
28:13
better football really. I mean.
28:15
Bosses. In a row on the Yeah, yeah,
28:17
exactly. And it's BYU, and they won't
28:20
look ahead to Arizona State the following week.
28:22
But this is a stretch for them. They go well, they host Arizona
28:27
State and then go play at TCU. So.
28:30
But First things first, they got it.
28:31
Got to take care of business against BYU.
28:34
But suddenly you do that in the wide open nature of this thing,
28:37
I wonder those guys that are sitting around watching football
28:40
on Saturday, if they all of a sudden you get a little extra
28:43
pep in your stuff. Like this thing's not over yet.
28:45
And we've seen this last couple of years, we've talked about it
28:47
what, four straight years after losing the first game of the
28:50
year, losing back-to-back. But they bounce plenty of times
28:53
in this kind of situation, Bill. Yeah, they they most definitely
28:57
have it. This programs had plenty of of
29:01
bouts of adversity that they've had to fight back from.
29:04
And this is the the latest bout with that.
29:07
And they they're going to they're going to need to is this
29:10
conference. The competition's really going
29:13
to pick up as you looked at this stretch run, because even if
29:16
Kansas awaits after that next high week.
29:19
So they've got a meat grinder here and then they've got to
29:23
Oklahoma State to end the season.
29:25
So, but I think a lot, we're going to tell a lot about this
29:27
team, but between now and then. Yeah, you look at the standings
29:31
now. I mean, is there elimination
29:33
games? I mean, the loser of K State,
29:35
Kansas is out of the playoff. You know, the the winner still
29:38
keeps their hopes alive. It's going to be every single
29:40
week in this conference trying to figure out who's going to get
29:43
back down to Dallas. Well, let's spend a couple of
29:46
minutes, Bill, on the exhibition game.
29:48
And you got to keep that in mind.
29:49
It was an exhibition game, but they certainly didn't exhibit
29:53
very good shooting, that's for certain.
29:55
Over 14. They had more turnovers than
29:57
they had assists. I I guess the good news that
30:00
comes out of this game, T JS got a whole bunch of tape and can
30:03
really get after these guys that can really coach them up because
30:06
there's lots to work on after Creighton did to what did to
30:10
them what they did on Friday night.
30:12
Yeah. And then I think this was the
30:14
one of the big reasons that was scheduled in the 1st place is
30:17
that Creighton plays such a different style of basketball as
30:21
Iowa State does, but but one that they're going to see a lot
30:24
in the in conference place. So that was by design.
30:27
And I think yeah, that they, you know, they get behind 23 points
30:32
at the half rally to get but between what, single digits?
30:36
I think they got it down to 8 in the late in the second-half
30:40
there, but fought back. I think that that was an
30:43
encouraging part of of how things played out.
30:46
Joshua Jefferson had a nice debut perform performance with
30:50
18 points, 12 rebounds. He was probably the the only guy
30:56
on the team you take away and you know, having a very good
31:00
game. He only shot 5 of 13 from the
31:02
field, but shot relatively well from the the free throw line
31:07
maybe. Toure Toure had a nice game.
31:10
Yeah, you know he did. He did.
31:11
He didn't have any. He didn't have any assists.
31:13
I know they'd like that as that being a facilitator.
31:17
He only took four shots, did make three of them play 27
31:20
minutes. I guess one good thing he
31:23
didn't, you know, he didn't have an assist, but he only turned
31:26
the ball over once. So this was really not a team
31:30
that that you mentioned. They had more turnovers than
31:33
assists. They had six assists on 22 made
31:36
field goals and that's got to be a lot higher as well.
31:39
You see when the this team's clicking on all cylinders as
31:43
they do, they've got that assist number a lot closer to the made
31:48
made field goal number. So lots to improve on this week
31:52
and they'll get a Northwestern team on Sunday at Hilton
31:56
Coliseum. What time is that game?
31:57
Is it 1:00? Noon, I think.
31:59
It's noon. Yep.
32:01
Yeah, I think they did that by design with the home football
32:04
game, game on on on Saturday, get getting to draw a lot of
32:08
folks and have them stay for the weekend.
32:11
After the football game, come to the the men's scrimmage.
32:14
Well, exhibition now at noon on Sunday.
32:17
I'll say this about Iowa State, and I'm not surprised they
32:21
crashed the website. More people tried to sign up and
32:24
pay for this game that the website actually crashed, which
32:28
is it did not work. It did not work.
32:30
A lot of there were a lot of PO D people.
32:33
That was even before. That was even before the Amazon
32:36
servers crashed this morning. And dealing with that the last,
32:40
well, going back to last night and those servers.
32:42
No. Why are they down?
32:43
Who knows? Yeah, but yeah, Iowa State fans
32:46
wanted to watch their squad and they all jumped on and went
32:49
willing to pay their 8 or 9 bucks or it crashed anyways.
32:53
Bill, I just got one final thing for you.
32:56
And with Milan, we know mom Chilovich, he's just he's
33:00
incredible scorer. He's got that skill set, but
33:03
they're just certain guys because T JS mentioned it now a
33:06
multitude of times during the summertime here, right as things
33:09
were ramping up. Is he ever going to get to that,
33:11
that he's going to be selfish that he is going to go out
33:13
there? Yes, I'm getting 20 shots
33:15
tonight. I don't care because it does
33:17
feel like if this team's going to maybe hit their apex, he has
33:20
to be more selfish and he's got to be hunting shots every single
33:23
game. Yeah, I I think so.
33:26
He he took seven against Creighton and that that was
33:30
without same and Lipsy as well, because I mean, you know, those
33:33
two are going to be on the same page when Taven gets back.
33:36
But mom Sheila bitch, she took seven against Creighton with
33:41
that Turay playing a lion's share of the the point that
33:44
Kelberman didn't play a whole lot at all.
33:46
So it was that Turay there. And I think as those guys play
33:50
together a little bit longer, they'll get on the same page as
33:53
well. And mom, Sheila bitch going to
33:56
get those threes maybe in a better position or I don't get
34:01
against the defense. You'll get get them in a better
34:04
I can get spot on the court or or a better position to take a
34:08
good look there. Maybe once Tayman comes back, if
34:11
you if you know what I was getting at there.
34:13
Absolutely good stuff. Bill Seals.
34:15
What have you got coming up? Obviously you'll be at the in
34:18
Ames tomorrow for the press conferences, Matt Campbell and a
34:21
couple of players. What else you got coming up this
34:23
week, Bill? Yeah, well, we've got that.
34:25
Another big recruiting week coming up.
34:27
Certainly with the the game day against BYU, 2:30 is always a
34:32
good kick off time to get a host of visitors in.
34:35
So we'll have a a closer look at that as the week draws on.
34:40
I've got my weekly PFF first look piece queued up and ready
34:45
to roll on. Taking a close look at BYU and
34:48
kind of their playmakers on offense and defense.
34:51
And gosh, this is a PFF loves the Cougars, let's put it that
34:55
way. They're they're both sides of
34:57
the ball very, very highly ranked.
34:59
So that it it, it, it amazed me that Iowa State's favored by 2
35:04
1/2 in this game, to be honest with you, because gosh, they're
35:08
just loaded on both sides of the ball.
35:10
So I wonder if that line might trickle down a little bit as we
35:14
we get on the the next couple days here when?
35:16
We will watch it for sure. You could be right.
35:18
Bill Seal cyclereport.com part of on three media.
35:22
Bill, thanks. What you do for us, we'll talk
35:24
to you next Monday. Appreciate it.
35:26
See, you guys have a good one. Yep, you too.
35:27
Bill Seals, cyclonereport.com, Mr. Monday night's got his plays
35:32
of the week. They're coming up next.
35:33
It's the I was Brad Nestler, Gary Danielson.
35:36
The call of that for CBS230 Kickoff.
35:41
Of course, if you can't watch it, you can turn it to 1040 News
35:45
Radio 1040, WHO, as they always do, have that one.
35:49
Before we hear from Mr. Monday Night, I want to read this
35:51
paragraph to you. And I thought this was
35:52
brilliantly written. This is Beethoven at the piano.
35:57
This is Shakespeare with a quill.
35:59
This is Michael Jordan in the finals.
36:01
This is Tiger Woods in Sunday red.
36:03
This is too good to be true. With no reason to doubt it.
36:06
This is the beginning of every baseball conversation and the
36:09
end of every debate. How about that?
36:12
Shohei Otani summing up his performance on Friday night.
36:16
Well, it's time for Mr. Monday night.
36:19
Will he dip his toe in the baseball waters?
36:22
Let's find. Out Mr. Monday night passed
36:24
these along because his voice is not feeling very good.
36:28
Oh yeah, probably a good idea. Let's see, he's got the lions
36:31
tonight. He's going to lay the 6th, the
36:32
big number. It's up to 6 now in the market
36:35
as the steam continues to come in.
36:38
Mike Evans, he's got a bad hamstring.
36:40
He's going to force his way back.
36:41
Abuka's not healthy. He's forcing his way back.
36:44
I just think there is too much concern there.
36:47
And Mr. Monday Night's got the lions -3 now he's also hedging.
36:53
OK, Texans +3, now you know the reason for that. 1-2 baseball,
36:59
props for you, OK? George Kirby.
37:03
Over. I was hoping for under. 3
37:05
strikeouts in the game, A flat 3 at Circa 3 1/2 in most of the
37:08
markets you can find a three, though, at Circa with a -, 105
37:11
on top of it. Kirby over 3 strikeouts.
37:14
Bieber under 12 1/2 outs. Under 12 1/2 outs.
37:19
Though those baseball pitching prop bets here, we're really
37:24
happy to be in the playoffs. They've been petering out.
37:26
Yeah, it happens. Who wins the game?
37:29
Seattle, do you think? What's Jays are favorite?
37:32
What's the number? I mean, it's relatively tight.
37:34
It's. Three 3 1/2 yeah yeah I I can't
37:38
look at this because it's my survivor pick and I was just
37:42
smiling here to ear I. Thought you took I thought you
37:44
took your. Bears.
37:45
I couldn't. I just couldn't.
37:47
Yeah, it's Have you allowed yourself to look at next week?
37:50
No, probably a. Good idea.
37:52
I've looked further ahead. OK, Thanksgiving.
37:55
Christmas. Yep, but I have to get there.
37:57
That's also another one of my things.
38:00
You know we have superstitions, right?
38:02
You have the dumb things. They're just somebody stupid.
38:05
Like it doesn't matter. No, but why do you do it?
38:08
You think it does? Yes.
38:10
So because of that, no, I have not.
38:12
How many? People got knocked out this
38:14
week, so very many. Was it hundreds?
38:15
Like a few hundreds. Yeah, we had the Thursday night
38:18
loss and that was basically it. Yeah, he had full a couple
38:21
other. And a few people with multiple.
