  Speaker 2: that Bowl game, the Sugar Bowl game tip off sorry
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: kickoff time about three to ten pm. Of course, it
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: was delayed a day after the terrorist defense in New
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Orleans earlier this week where many lost their lives, and
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: first would like to say condolences, thoughts and prayers go

  Speaker 2: terrible tragedy that happened in New Orleans on New Year's Eve. Again,

  Speaker 2: thoughts and prayers of those families, and look forward to
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: the day where revelation twenty one to three and four
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: do come true. But the game has been moved to
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: the day where it will tick off just about ten
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: minutes on ESPN. Notre Dame actually favored in this game
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: by one point, of course. Carson Beck, Bulldogs starting quarter
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: back out for the entire season with that shoulder injury,
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: had surgery on it, declaring for the NFL Drafts. So
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: coming in will be Gunner Stockton, the backup quarterback for
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: the Georgia Bulldogs. Member He came in for back against
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Texas in the SEC Championship, did a fine job helped
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: the Bulldogs win that championship game over the Longhorns. But
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: now with Marcus Freeman, the fighting iurs having a championship,
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: prepare for him fully. What can Georgia do against this
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame team that put the whip on Indiana when
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: he was a twenty seven to seventeen in a game
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: that was pretty much over with in the first half.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: The score did not indicate truly the outcome of that game.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame was by far a better team in that one.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: It was not really a ten point game a late
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: touchdown from the Hoosiers. So a lot of people riding
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: with Notre Dame in this one. The winner of this
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: game will take on Penn State. He was able to
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: hold off Boise State the Fiesta Bowl to advance the
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: semi finals, and so they'll await the winner of Texas
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: and Ohio State next week. So a lot of fun
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: college football to get to again. Georgia and Notre Dame
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: abounts to kick off on ESPN real quick. Some more
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: thoughts on this Texas Arizona State victory. I said in
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: the beginning of the show, it felt like in on
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: our pregame show, a long Gorange game.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Thank you the Taco Delly for having us out yesterday.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: A fantastic spot, fantastic location, a really real fun show.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I felt that like that Texas would be able to
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: control the line of scrimmage in this game, would be
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: able to run the ball, and Texas will be able
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: to be able to stop Kim Skattaboo and evctually win
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: this game by double diggers. I did not think it
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: would be that close, and the way it started it
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: looked like that right Arizona stake at the ball first had.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Of course, we could not go a game without some
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: sort of weird special teams miskio. We had what three
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: in this game against Arizona State, beginning with Maurice Blackwell
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Junior failing to block the Arizona State punt. I still
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: have no idea how he did not block that punt.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: It was third and four, running into the kicker five
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: yard penalty, automatic first down for Arizona State. They would
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: be able to get in the field goal range and
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: score their only points of the first half. Texas offense
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: comes out two plays boom boom, quinnywers to Matthew Golden
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: and then DeAndre Moore Junior seven to Ninhering.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: All right, this game.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Might be over with pretty early Texas would go three
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and out later on, but then Arizona State nothing going.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: It would punt and finally Silas Bolden with a punt
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: return touchdown. We had been waiting for it all year long.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: We knew he would finally break one, and he did it.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Texas up fourteen to three. The betting live line went
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: from thirteen and a half to twenty five and a half,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: and I think a lot of Taxes then thought, all right,
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Arizona State's not gonna be able to move the ball
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: against Texas offensively. This is playing right into the hands
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: of the long Corns. But after that tick return touchdown,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: we'd get the ball back, forcing another Actually they would
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: force an Arizona State turnover downs fantastic stop from the
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Taxas defensive line stopping Camskattaboo would move the ball down
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: the field, had a great screen pass to Trey Wisner,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: but got inside the ten yard line through some sort
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: of not really a goal line fade the Matthew Golden
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: kind of an out route, could not convert, would settle
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: for a field goal. Seventeen to three. All right, you
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: know you feel like it should be twenty one to
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: three at that point, and then things got a little
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: bit weird. In that second quarter, Texas couldnot capitalize on offense.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Arizona State would would have a couple of chances in
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: that first half I believe a second turnover on downs.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Actually they would have three overall, so no sorry, two
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: overall in that first half they would turn the ball
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: over on downs. They would have a field goal the
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: tempt blocked. I think it was Ethan Burke, the Westley product,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: getting his hands on it. Taxes would would get the
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: ball back one more time in the first half, end
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: up punting it. Just you know, it felt like it
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: should be a lot larger than the seventeen to three
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: lee at a halftime. But hey horn to getting the
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: ball back the second half, but three and out and
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: then Arizona State what would move down the field levin
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: plays sixty yards another turnover on downs would get down
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: to the Texas two yard line. But offensively, Texas just
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: not running a lot of plays. Arizona State, however, was
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: controlling time of possession and plays. At one point, I
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: think they had run sixty eight plays to Texas is
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: like twenty.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: The time of possession was so skewed.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Arizona State had twenty more minutes of the football than
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Texas did, and we saw that fatigue start to play
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: in right and Texas finally would go up twenty four
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: to eight in the fourth quarter. Felt like this game
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: was finally over this spite having that safety following the
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: turnover on downs to the Texas defense getting another goal
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: line stand. Next play, Trey Wisner popped ball comes back
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: to Quin Yours. Nothing you can do there has to
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: just fall down if he If he throws it away,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: it's a safety. The ball gets recovered by Arizona State,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: it's a touchdown. The best thing could do is just
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: fall down on the ground again. Texas not getting a
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: great push on the offensive line, but would go up
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: twenty four to eight in that fourth quarter. Felt like okay,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Texas finally gonna have some breathing room. But then Arizona
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: State would continue to pull out the tricks. Cam Skataboo
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: let that touchdown pass again. Not sure what Malik Muhammad
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: was doing there. I guess he just did not see
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: The ball in the air turns into an Arizona State touchdown.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: Texas gets the ball back when Yours on second down
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: just threw which is a really, really bad interception in
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: the double coverage looking for Isaiah Bond did not work
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: out well. And then Arizona State Gamskattaboo on that go
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: route down the sideline. I thought you could have called
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: offensive pass interference. I mean he kind of stopped running
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: and Michael Taff checked into him, and then Skataboo used
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: that momentum to break away from Tath and make the catch. Now,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: of course there was the face mass penalty on the catch. Anyway,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Arizona State would ultimately punch it in, would convert two
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: point conversions to make it twenty four to twenty four.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Despite some frustrating moments from Queen Yours in that game,
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: he was nails to end at Folks eleven of fourteen
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. He led two two drives in
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: the fourth quarter that resulted in what could have been
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: the game winning field goals, and Burt Auburn would miss
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: from forty eight yards and then he would miss from
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: thirty eight yards. So do not want to hear anything
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: about Queen Ewers not delivering the clutch, because folks, he
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: did it twice yesterday in regulation. And then we get
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: to overtime, right, thirdy it was what a third and
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: fourteen for Sam Levitt somehow escapes what could have been
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: a Baron currell sack and then got away from David
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Benda and Michael taff I think before getting the first
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: down and then Scataby would score the touchdown. Thirty was
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: at thirty one twenty four. Now I think a lot
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: of Texas fans thought it's over with, this is it?
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: But fourth down, fourth in thirteen, Yours recognizes Arizona State.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: It's gonna blitz, Brian Robinson said in his postgame showing
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: on on on Texas or sorry on on Texas football.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: They sent six guys. Yours recognizes that checks in the
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: max protect offense and delivers an absolute beautiful ball to
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Matthew Golden, who, by the way, guys, go back and
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: watch Golden's route. He had the safety doing spin cycles,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: breaks free beautiful ball from yours, steps in, delivers a
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: great throw.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Golden makes the catch, tie game.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Then first play of first play of double overtime, Yours
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: again steps up into the pocket delivers another fantastic throw
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: on the run. The gunner Helm was able to slip
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: into the secondary. Arizona State. I believe was expecting a
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Trey Wiser run. Nope, Helm touchdown the gop for two.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Matthew Golden, who else? Thirty nine to thirty one, and
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: then Andrew macuba steps up and gets the interception on
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: third down. What a way to end it and who
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: better than Andrew mccooba. I think there's two guys on
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: the defensive side that I think Texas fans will like
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: to see make a game winning play, probably Shade Baron
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: or Andrew mccooba, or the two of them. Mccuba obviously
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: moved here from Nigeria as a kid, but grew up
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: in Austin, played in LBJ Austin with the Clempson, then
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: comes back to Texas and has been one of the
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: best defensive players in the country and continues to bring
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: it hit after hit after hit in Texas. Able to
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: get the victory, thirty nine the thirty one, and we'll
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: take on Ohio State next week. Ohio State led what
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: thirty four to nothing early on in that game against Oregon,
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: a real ugly first half for the Ducks.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: You know, the first meeting between the two schools.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Oregon able to hold on, but that was played in Eugene,
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: you felt like this Ohio State team something has changed
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: since their loss to Michigan, right that ugly loss thirteen
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: to ten. Still not sure how they lost that game,
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: but something has changed, because through two rounds to college
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: football Playoff, I don't think there's any argument the best
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: team playing their best football right now is the Ohio
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: State buck Guys. A huge credit to what Ryan Day
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: and Chip Kelly and Jim Knowles have done on both
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: offense and defense. Jeremiah Smith is a freaking cheat code
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Mecha Abuka is a fantastic wide receiver, Travon Henderson is
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: a fantastic running back, quin Shawn Judkins. They have all
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: the talent. They're the best talent in college football. I
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: think from top to bottom. They have the best roster
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: in college football from top to bottom, and they're playing
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: with the best football team in top to bottom. So
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: for Texas, I don't know if we've seen them play
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: a full four quarter game against a top twenty five
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: opponent this season, But if they want to beat Ohio
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: State next week, they're going to have to play a
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: complete game because they cannot beat the Buck guys. With
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: that up next, we're going to hear from Steve Sarkis
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: and quin Ewers in Shidy Baron from the post game.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: As The Craigway Show continues on this Thursday afternoon
