The Next Round: College Football Upset Alert: Alabama-Tennessee, Ohio State-Indiana & SEC Playoff Chaos | Hour 2 · The Next Round

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: All right, hour number two here as we roll on
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: on the next round presented by Hard Rock Bet on
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Sport and State. Before we get back into college football,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: SEC Basketball Media Days is going on. We'll talk about
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: the media poll and all that coming up in the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: next round, our local segment coming up. But Forrester just
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: gave us an update. Brooks is down there. Brooks, Texas
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: as well. God, one of the new coaches. Forrester, who's
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: one of the new coaches if we were still in
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: television media that we'd be dying to talk to today
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: in the SEC?
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Who would it be?
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: I would imagine folks were really wanting to hear from
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Will Wade.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Well, everybody comes to SEC Media Days.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Where's Will Wade?
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: Still in Baton Rouge.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Why is he not coming?
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Because of the weather.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Oh, fogged in. Couldn't get the PJ out. Fog in
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Baton Rouge. Not coming to SEC Media Days. Does that
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: sound like an excuse?
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, I can't really be an excuse because if
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: people are in Baton Rouge, they'll know if there's fog
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: or not, right?
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but how quick does fog burn off? Can he
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: come in later today? Can we adjust? What do you
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: think it spoils down to? The ongoing fight between LSU
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: and the SEC?
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: Is there a lighthouse in Baton Rouge that's out? I've
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: never heard of somebody being trapped in because of fog.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, fog happens, but it burns off pretty quick
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: here in the South.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Doesn't last all day. Brown, you've been paying attention to
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: LSU kick times lately. We all know what's been going
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: on with LSU and their roster to start off the season.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: And now the first big conference event that LSU could
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: be represented at. Will Wade's fogged in and his team
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: can't come to SEC Basketball Media Days.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Help me out here.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: When you say LSU kick times, they announced yesterday, obviously,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: that the Auburn game is going to be an 11
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Central kick.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: That means State at 11 Central, Auburn at 11 Central.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: If I read right, and I would love to credit
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: who I read this from, but I forgot. One of
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: those is a home game. One of those is a
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: road game.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: But if I read right, it is the first time
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: in the history of LSU football they've played back-to-back 11 a.m.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Kicks. That's right.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Can you– do you have the schedules, future schedules in
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: front of you? For LSU?
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: No, the SEC. SEC.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I just want to ask about their last two home
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: games to see if there's a chance. I just need
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the SEC schedule. Alabama and Texas. Well, those are the two,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: but I want to know who else is playing in
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: the SEC those days. Oh, yeah, I can pull that
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: up for you. So Alabama-Texas is Saturday, November 7th, Dunaway,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: so we'll need that. And then the very next week
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: is November 14th. Both those games were reserved in the
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: preseason for the 2.30 to 7 o'clock Central Time window.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: So that means it could either be a 2.30 kick
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: or a primetime kick, a night game at Tiger Stadium.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Okay, so what week?
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: So November 7th, Alabama and LSU. What else is in
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the conference that day? November 7th?
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: In the conference that day.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Hold on.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Let me get down. In the conference that day, we
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: have in the early window, Arkansas-Auburn. Afternoon, evening, Oklahoma-Florida. afternoon, evening, Alabama, LSU, afternoon.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Evening, Georgia, and Ole Miss. Yeah, that could be your
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: prime time. Yeah, that's your best one. The other ones
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: have lost a lot of steam.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they'll put Alabama, LSU at 2.30, so
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: they won't give them a night game there, and they'll
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: put Georgia, Ole Miss. Kentucky, evening, guaranteed evening is Kentucky, Tennessee.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: It's not even slotted anywhere else. Can you go to
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the next week when you've got Texas and LSU? So
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: here's your primetime games reserved. Texas is at LSU. You've
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: got Missouri at Georgia. That's a sneaky good.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Game right there. Missouri keeps winning.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. Texas at LSU, Tennessee at Texas A & M,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Florida at Kentucky, South Carolina, Arkansas. The only thing you could...
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, ESPN will play this game only so far.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Texas at LSU is most likely.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You probably got to put that primetime. You have to.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: But boy, if they put that at 2.30, they've really
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: sent a message. Florida and Kentucky, though, is a guaranteed
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: evening start.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: It is. Well, so is Missouri at Georgia. Yeah.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Which, again, if Missouri keeps winning, Missouri's 13th right now.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I can't remember. Wouldn't that be more fun if that
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: was Georgia at Missouri?
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I got Missouri-Georgia afternoon or evening.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: So they could play it at prime time. I'm just
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: looking at Missouri's 13th right now, and their upcoming before
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: that Georgia game is at Ole Miss this week.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Tough game for them. At Arkansas.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Texas at Georgia. They're not going to be 13 when
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: that game rolls around.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: They've still got to go to Ole Miss and host Texas.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Our friends at Hard Rock Bet, all that to say
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Will Wade and LSU playing it safe, still in Baton Rouge, fog,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: not coming to SEC media days, it looks like, for
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: basketball here in Birmingham today. Read into that whatever you
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: want to read into it. Or maybe it's just fog,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: and maybe we're reading too much into it. That being said,
• 4:53

  Speaker 1: for you. Let's go bad first. Or maybe you like it.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina throwing out a 90s-themed uniform.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Always bad uniforms.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: 90s-themed uniform this weekend.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? Back to the 90s. That's a little... Yikes. No,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: that's a little Saved by the Bell. That's what I
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: was going to say, Saved by the Bell.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: So that's, you know, the Pastels are kind of 80s.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: They started filming, Tyler, you might know this, Miami Vice
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: 85 yesterday. With Michael B. Jordan and Austin Butler.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Oh, so they started doing the new Miami Vice.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the new Miami Vice started. Walton Goggins is on it, too. Oh,
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: is he really? That's cool.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: We just lost Mr. Belding from Saved by the Bell. Yeah,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: that's sad.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Apparently he had been kind of recluse at the end
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: of his life.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Hey, so these do look very Saved by the Bell,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: but their hype video for them is Fresh Prince.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Oh, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Never saw their football team.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, a little bit.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Now that you bring that up.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Do we have a Kelly Kapowski welfare check?
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Was that Tiffany Amber?
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, I follow her on Instagram. She's doing perfectly fine.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, is she? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: She's tremendous.
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: By the way, is she cashing in on the nostalgia
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: these days?
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, you know she is. She's tremendous. Hey, I saw
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: all three of our commercials were running last night. I
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: don't know if you guys saw all three.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: I saw Megan.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw Sidney Sweeney, and I saw
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Miley Cyrus.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you, though. Y'all are a little critical
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: on the Megan Fox. Oh, LT. It doesn't look human.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Her hips. She's so skinny in the waist, and then
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: her hips and her backside. Now, different strokes for different folks,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: but I thought that was a little.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Out of whack.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: Let me guess.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: You can sling a dead cat and hit a Megan
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Fox in Floribama? Probably.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know about that, but probably. Definitely if
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I went down to Coastal. Because those hips are going
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to be settled up eating some fried crab claws. That's right.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Just for reference, can you pull up Megan Fox in
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: the row commercial? Yeah, because I honestly cannot envision. This
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: is the one I cannot envision. She's in the tight
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: red suit.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: How can you not?
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess I'm taking a piss. While
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: he's pulling it up, I watched the baseball. Every commercial
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: break last night, every commercial break last night of the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: baseball had the F1 team.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: The F1 team. Oh, yeah.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: You guys know we're not self-driving cars. It played every commercial.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: Did it really? Yeah.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Look at the hips there. And that's not doing it justice.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: She's not walking there.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: That's not my favorite. I'm just going to be honest
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: with you. It's definitely three of the three that you
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: brought up. I mean, you said it was three, though, right?
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I agree it is three, but you're talking about a
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: three-team parlay, strong as new rope. It's paying more than
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: six to one.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I'll go ahead and say this, and I won't start XXXY,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: my own T-shirt brand, but I feel like now I
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: should say I like all bodies, and you should feel
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: good in your body no matter what you look like. Oh,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: that's fine.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Unless you're Harrison Mevis.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just saying.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: If he was making kicks, it would bother you a
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: little bit. I just don't like.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: How she's still trying to look like she did in 2007.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I would say that what typical I mean, women
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: like to do that, though, right? They look really good
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: in their 20s or 30s. You want to continue to
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: look youthful.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: And I don't know if there's like some new trends
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: or something going on, but it looks horrible now.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Some some people like Clayface, the new movie out in
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: theaters now.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, out next week.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: No, next week.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: My bad.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Thicker hips. You're a kicker for the Rams or her?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's going to, like, hers are purposely, like,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: these women pay for these BBLs.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: And, like, I think she's got one. I don't want to,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: I have no idea.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Is that a big butt lift?
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: It's a Brazilian butt lift. Close.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's basically the same thing.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: You call it either thing.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Okay, here is the good uniform of the week. Look
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: at this. Cal's got a Grateful Dead-themed uniform this weekend,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: including the Cal logo, the Grateful Dead logo on there, and...
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: The whole uniform is fire as they get ready to
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: play this weekend. Of course, on the back helmet plate,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: you get the bears walking.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: How can you go out if you're Tosh Lapoi and
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: preach violence when you've got dancing bears?
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: That does feel like it's in conflict. You could preach.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Are you watching the process on ESPN? You can do
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: a little Alabama getaway.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you, Cal has got another one of these.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: They can't decide on the colors. Are we going.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: To go black?
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: And yellow, or are we going to go kind of
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: the blue and yellow? I think the blue and yellow
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: with the bear looks the best. Of course, I'm not
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: a deadhead guy. I don't think they're ever black.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I just think it's that Yankees blue.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. I think it's a dark navy. All right.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: That gets us to upset alert today. Let's do the sirens.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Show me the flashing lights as we do the upset alert.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Every week, On Tuesdays, we try to pick upsets. Outright
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: winners benefit more than just the covers. It's our weekly
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: upset alert. It's traditionally one of my favorite parts of
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: the show, especially when everybody's hot. I just don't like
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: to be hot myself. I like it when everybody's hot.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: And last week, we set a record. Let's see the
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: rules first before we see the standings. The rules, minimum
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: spread plus four and a half, five points for the cover,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: five points and the spread for the outright win. So
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: if you cover, you get five, and then you get
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: the extra points. And last week, Forrester, show us the standings.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: And there's five of us that do this, and four
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: of us had outright winners. And then Brown also got
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: a cover.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Look.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Four points separate first and last place. That's pretty remarkable,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: the last week. I just noticed that I was in first.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: When you showed me that earlier, I didn't notice that part.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: There was a local bookmaker years ago when we did
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: this on Terrestrial Radio, and we had one season. I
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: have no idea when it was. We were really hot,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: all three of us, but he just played our plays
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: every single week. If you're doing it right now and
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: you're playing some of these live dogs, you're making some money.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: I'm going to show you somebody did that last week. Two, four, six, eight.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: We've got nine outright winners in six weeks.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: That's pretty incredible. Yeah. And I'm telling you. Those are
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: big odds. Miami of Ohio was up 28 on Cincinnati.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: If I would have had this thing, it would probably
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: be over at this point because I was catching 16
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: and a half.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Well, we almost went five for five with outright wins because,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: you know, Brown.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Had Nebraska.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, nearly nailed Nebraska. Oh, 17-6 in the fourth quarter,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: six plays later, Indiana's in the lead or Nebraska would
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: have made this amazing. but it's still pretty cool. Here's
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: a buddy of mine right here. Uh, he sent me
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: the screenshot of his plays.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: That's our three. That's just the three of us. He
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: just played the points on all three of them in
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: a parlay.
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: They're pretty well right there. That worked out good.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Think about if he would have done money line
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: on that. Boy, that would have paid heavy. Yeah. Amazing. Okay.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Here's our picks this week for week seven. Uh, I'll
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: start us off. Um, because we have duplication. Brooks is
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: on mine as well, so we never know who everybody's picking.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I'm going with the Cal Bears. Quarterback, doesn't matter. I'm
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: taking Cal, going with the Cal Bears, plus the 9.5
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: this week, and let's go.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: That is fantastic.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: Not a bad Grateful Dead skull.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: No, the skull's pretty good. No, the skull's not bad.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: I wonder if the bears would come into focus once
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: you're on enough drugs.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you get some acid in you.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Well, I also knew the quality of our cameras at
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: a distance. The bears were going to look pretty good.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: They look like a blob over here.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of color there. That's not bad. That's really,
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: really good. Nine and a half. I was wondering why
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: you were calling it a good uniform. Now I see why.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I like that you set up the uniforms before this.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: No, I'm with him. I think that helmet's awesome. Yeah.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Well, you've got to like the Grateful Dead.
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: Do you guys like this better than the Oregon Grateful
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: Dead tribute?
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Yes, I do.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: I don't think you have to like the Grateful Dead
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: at all because I don't. I just think it's a
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: cool-looking helmet.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm with Lance.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: It's hard for Tosh LaPoi to say, we're going to
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: go out there and impose our will and, like, coach,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: we've got the Grateful Dead. I mean, it's just weird.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: Do you think any of.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Those players have ever heard a Grateful Dead song?
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: No.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: That whole crowd has. You can do the speech this way, though.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: You can say, hey. Let's go out there and let's
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: go hard for 60 minutes, just like one Grateful Dead song.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Because it is a jam band. It'll go on for
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: days sometimes. All right, so that is mine and Brooks,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: who also chimed in separately, not knowing, to take the
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Bears plus nine and a half. Let's go to you next, LT.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Who do you have?
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: I am going to the Big 12. I know Baylor
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: has played really, really good football. They're going against the
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Klandy man. This offense for Sonny Dykes has been busted.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: I did this on the fly. My lizard has been
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: run over. The TCU is all off, but I'm taking
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: TCU plus six and a half against Baylor. It's not bad.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: No, it's not bad at all. The lizard is really good.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a frog.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, Brent would tell you to waste the purple
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and color in the letters.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to– blow the load of the entire purple.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: You will see, I don't know how many markers the
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Brown Bandit used today. And I know we're going to
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: get to it.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, he did it while I was giving him show notes.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: It was more than three.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: This is when we go to Forrester next, usually. Forrester,
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: who's no longer in the league, but we're all separated
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: by four. What do you have for us this week,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: AI Forrester?
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: Hopefully I don't get us canceled here.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: We are going to the fun belt. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: We're going Troy, Louisiana. The Trojan's going to use some
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: kind of inflatable shield there to thwart the sword attack.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: Is that a kid's toy? Yes. Sure.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: Some of us called it a bounce house.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Back in the day. Yeah. With a sword, too.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very risky.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: So Troy's going down to the stabbing cabin, if you will.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: I think Louisiana, just for the record, I think it
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: is the highest STD state in the lower 48. So
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Troy needs to visit more often. I think it is. Tyler,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: can you confirm that? I think the highest STD rate
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: is in the state of Louisiana. I think New Orleans
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: probably skews it a little bit. Well, Kiffin is there.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: Mississippi and Louisiana are the two highest.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Oh, there you go.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: Which, to be fair, I think I could have assumed
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: that without a study.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Wait, where are we before we start throwing stuff?
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, we're going to be bottom two.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Not one or two.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Okay. Just like education, we're not one or two. We're seven.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: We're seven.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Top ten. We're Alabama's ring.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: As I always like to say, when you're listening to
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Grateful Dead Music Kids, cheer for Troy. hey the brown
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: bandit's back what's up guys hey you let us down
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: last week we everybody had an outright winner but you
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: welcome to the party gosh bandit i gotta let you
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: guys win sometime or you'll end this segment i know
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: how done away is when he gets behind it'll be
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: like ah do people ever pay attention to this anymore
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: i'm not gonna let that happen so i had to
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: let you catch up a little bit there thank you
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: jerry garcia we've we've already uh We've already questioned how
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: many markers you used in your pick this week. I
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: noticed the marker police was looking at my drawing earlier.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: You haven't done a satchel game yet, a hide-a-satchel game.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: Not yet. That's later in the year. We normally do
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: that in November. We're in October right now. Okay.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Or as Fox calls it, Foxtober.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Is that what they're calling it? You know, we worry
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: about the environment and the ozone, and if markers are
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: doing anything to the ozone, the brown bandit is killing it. Yeah.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: We've got a hole right here above the facility here.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: We do. We do.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: You know what's going to fall through that hole is
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: money this week, because I'm about to give you a
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: game that if they were playing this in Tyler's apartment,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: it would smell just like that crap he had in
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: his apartment not long ago.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Wow. Did you ever get that fixed? Yeah, I mean,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: it's mostly fixed. Yeah, mostly.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: If you dropped a nugget on your bathroom floor, would
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: you eat it?
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: No, no chance. Do you remember the smell? Yes. That's
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: what this game's going to smell like.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Somehow, it's on ESPN2. I don't even know how they
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: put this game on ESPN2.
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: But Arkansas. Oh, wow. Thank you. Pretty good. Some good shading.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Apparently used too many markers. Good-looking hog. Thank you. Scott
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: likes my hog.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: The drawing, too. Scott likes my hog. Yeah, Brown did.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: When Brown was here, not the Brown Bandit, he was like, yeah,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: not the first time I've heard that. Because I, too,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: said nice hog.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Nice hog.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: I said I appreciate every time he would pop up
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: during the pandemic. Somebody would send me a text like, hey,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: did you see this foul ball catch? And it would
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: be that drawing of that hog right there every time.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: That's my favorite. Arkansas is at Vanderbilt.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: They're catching six and a half points in the Music City.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Tyler Johns.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: We don't need them. We don't need them.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Arkansas gets their first win. If it was in my backyard,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't go watch it.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: It feels like your other alter ego is starting to
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: really fade Vanderbilt as well.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Vandy's in trouble. They're not playing defense. I don't know
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: why you're still talking like that.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: They're my stock down. I don't either. I think when
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: anybody puts a mask on, I think they've got to change.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: They've got to get a little more gravelly.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know where the segment starts and where the
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: segment ends.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: I never know.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Well, I hate this voice of yours because it rubs
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: off of me when I'm doing play-by-play in high school. Touchdown, Vestavia!
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Normal voice.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Touchdown, Vestavia!
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Ground banded voice. Is that how you do it?
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: For some reason, I did the other night, and I
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: think it's because of this segment.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: Why don't you put on an accent this week, just
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: for fun?
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: Well, I would use a Cajun accent, but if I
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: scratch my crotch, people would wonder.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: No, do the Russian.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I could do British. Pretty good there, right? No, not really.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: All right, that's our upset alert. Around the board, Brooks
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: and I are on California. LT's on TCU. The Brown
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Bandit's on the Hog.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Big ol' Hog!
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: And then Forrester is no love, no glove. No glove,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: no love. Troy down at Louisiana. And that's our upset alert.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: This is the next round presented by Hard Rock Bet
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: on sport and state as we roll on here on
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: sport and state the next round presented by hard rock
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: bet before brownie tells you about perfect 10 um i
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: don't have the guy's name it was on social media
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: let me make sure forrester didn't put it as a
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: cut here he did not Did you ever get the
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Winston State-Salem guy lining the field off?
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: That was incredible. I can't believe you've seen the video, too.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: This is amazing.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Winston-Salem State. And this is a real college before a
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: real game. The guy's eyeballing.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Watch.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Watch, he'll take the three steps to measure three yards.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: And look how crooked those lines are and how big
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: they are. And he's got a spray paint can just
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: sprayed off the hash marks. He's eyeballing the field here.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: I think my TC Horned Frog is bad, but it
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: might be better than.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: Look how curved they are.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: He walks it off.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: And now he's like, okay. He's only got three stripes
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: between the five, by the way, here. Now he's got
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: to squeeze one more in. They're laughing at him from
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: the press box.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Is that going to be one yard? Look.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Now I put it in there like, no, man.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Look how curved they are. Yeah.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: And he's done this. And he's catching his breath every
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: time he bends over because he's already made it across
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: the 50 doing this. Winston-Salem State actually sent out a
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: release last night saying that they will recommit themselves to
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: game day operations and field conditions.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: You've got to save up for NIL, right? Hey, are
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: they the Rams?
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: I believe they are.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: That's kind of a.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: You like that demonic look?
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it really... What's the red?
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: If it was your Ram Blue, you'd be like, okay.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know. There's something wrong with the face, too.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Red horns? Why did he curve them all, though?
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Why did he not look back and say, oh, wait
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: a minute, I'm curving these. Let me be a little
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: more careful. Well, it's hard to do. Well, I'm well aware,
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: but he's doing it on every one. He looks like
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: a soccer player. Like we're about ready to do a
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: penalty kick and that guy pulls out his little mace can.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: There's no way they played the game with that.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: 100%.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: This is pregame. Like the watch when it zooms back out,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: there's already people milling around and there's people in the
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: press box. The people in the press box are shooting
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: this laughing. Yeah, this is shot from the seat. Look
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: right there on the 41. Look how close the 41
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: is to the 40. I don't think they're accurate.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: No, that's not even a foot apart. No, no.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: He's running out of space.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: I saw this last night on TikTok, of course.
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: How does he not notice that every single one of
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: those lines is curved?
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: I don't think he cares, Tyler. I think he's trying
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: to get this done. I think like any good player,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: he's trying to get to the end zone. I mean,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: you guys are being so critical. The guy's doing the
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: best he can do here.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: I ain't good.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: I mean, at this point, what's the point of even
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: counting out the steps and getting down and doing it?
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Just eyeball it. There are certain jobs a lot of
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: people can just, if they put their mind to it,
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: they can do it. This ain't for him.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: I really do think that, to Tyler's point, I could
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: have just gone, without even stepping it off, I could
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: have done a better job just eyeballing, trying to fit
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: five in between. What I would have done... Well, you
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: only fit four in between.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Oh, you know what I mean.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Four in between.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: Hey, did the hashes on SoFi look different? Yeah, a little, yeah.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: I would have done the hash closest to the main
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: line first and then worked in from there. You see
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying?
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you would have gone... So you would have gone
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: like 21 to 24.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: You just split the middle each time.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: 21, 24. And then, yeah. Okay, how about this? How
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: about get a couple of interns and get a yardstick? Well,
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: you know, Lance.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: That would have taken some time.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: And you also could have one of the cutout where
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: you just lay it down and spray it.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: You mean like in high school?
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Perfect 10 Mortgage. That was not Perfect 10 Field Management

  Speaker 1: 10 Mortgage in pursuit of a more perfect mortgage. I
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: want to ask the question, is this week overrated or
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: underrated on their TV schedule? Like, obviously, No. 4 Ohio
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: State and No. 5 Indiana is the biggest game in
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: the country this week. That should be your No.
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: 1 game.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: But, I mean, Florida, Texas... In that same window and statement? Well,
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, Florida-Texas is like if you want to watch
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: a train wreck. Yeah.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Because, I mean, something bad is going to come out
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: of this. I think it'll be a close game just
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: because of Texas. I saw On3 Sports said that the
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: second biggest game in the country behind Ohio State and
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Indiana is Alabama-Tennessee, 6 versus 14. Does it feel that
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: way to you guys?
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: I think it's more Notre Dame-BYU. Just based on the
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: fact that Notre Dame doesn't have a lot of potential pitfalls,
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: this will probably blow you guys away. First, maybe not.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: First ever top 10 matchup in Provo. Ever.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: That does blow me away. Well, I guess that would
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: be ever. It's in Lavelle's Edwards Stadium history, so I'm
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: sure they're just... not going naming rights, they're going in
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Provo itself.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah. That is surprising. And the first time game day
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: has been there since 2009, so there is a big
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: buzz around the game. If L.J. Martin was healthy, I
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: would feel a lot better about BYU's opportunity to win
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: that game, but that's got to be the number two game.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: But there's some under the radar. I mean, Missouri, Ole Miss,
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: I think that's more important than Alabama, Tennessee.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: And that's 13-9 playing each other.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Somebody's going to absorb a devastating loss in that one.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: If you want to find potential, and I am not
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: kidding when I say this, potential... College football playoff implications,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: both Wisconsin at UCLA and Oklahoma State at Houston have
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: that in the primetime window.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Oh, the primetime window is great. It's not underrated.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: It's the most pink I've done on my TV schedule
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: to date. Ohio State, Indiana, Florida, Texas, Mississippi State, LSU, Virginia, SMU.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Because SMU still has the one.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: Loss, right? It's lost some steam, though, because of Virginia.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Like in the offseason, I think we looked at this
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: game and thought, hey, they may be playing for the
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: right to face Miami. And the way the ACC is going,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think you could say that, right? But all
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: four games I just gave you there are the early window.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Then the midday window is Auburn, Georgia. That's number one, Georgia.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: A lot of people are projecting a massive beatdown. More
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: on that coming up in the next round. Alabama, Tennessee, Missouri,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss. I mean, brand name, Penn State, Michigan, 230,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: but that's off the radar, right?
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: And then in the primetime window, Florida State, Miami is
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: off the radar. But Notre Dame, BYU, Wisconsin, UCLA, Kentucky, Oklahoma,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, Houston. And then late night, you get Utah, Colorado.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Wake Forest, California, and Nebraska and Oregon. And that Nebraska-Oregon
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: game has significance now as well. Well, technically, I mean,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: Nebraska's only got the one conference loss, so they're still
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: alive in the Big Ten race, and Oregon is desperate
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: for a win. They've got one conference.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: I don't know, Dante, more what the status is, but
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: can you imagine if Raiola's got to start against his
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: old team?
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: That's right. A little drama there, him coming back.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: Especially as bad as he played last week.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's interesting.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: But you're right.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, SMU at 4-1 is a team we'd, don't
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: pay any attention to, but they've only got the one loss.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: My favorite window is our top right, those four, the
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: 630 window. The primetime window. Yeah, those four games are really,
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: really good.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame at BYU, Wisconsin at UCLA. That's ABC, NBC.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: SEC Network, Kentucky at Oklahoma. Good game for the SEC Network.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: And then Oak State at Houston on Fox.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: You know what's crazy? The best opportunity to double-digit win,
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: I think, is the top 10 matchup with Notre Dame
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: beating BYU.
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: Kirby Smart... Kirby Smart got asked yesterday about the Kirk
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Cignetti effect in college football. And we have six first-year
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: coaches ranked right now in the top 25. It's only
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: the sixth time that's happened in the AP poll history
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: that we've had six first-year coaches ranked in the top 25.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: That's from Brandon Marcello. Marcello tells me the last time
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: it happened was 2022. Before that, it was 2001. Before that,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: it was 1990, 1989, and then in 1951. And now
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: this year, six first-year coaches right now ranked in the
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: AP Top 25.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: Is it a little bit of luck? Is it these
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: are just really good coaches? Or is it transfer portal
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: and the immediate impact of these guys?
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just think it's the world we're
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: living in that you can– With the transfer portal, you
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: can have success right away. You don't have to go
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: in and have a three-year recruiting plan. You can go
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: in and have a three-day recruiting plan. I mean, if
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: you get hired at a place that's got resources. Some
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: of these guys didn't. I mean, Bob Chesney is one
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: of these guys. We don't view UCLA as having tremendous resources,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: do we?
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: No.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: In fact, they're not as much in debt as some
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: other schools we've been reading about, but they're in debt.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: What do you think they're averaging? I know this right
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: now on on attendance this year they're undefeated.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Uh ucla i'm gonna say 17 000 for some reason
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: gotta be higher than that right it is higher than
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: that you wouldn't open up the rose.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: Bowl for them yeah what is it 31 446 70
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: 72nd nationally behind nine group 16 well i.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: Was thinking about this yesterday though they i mean they're
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: the they've got this win at oregon now they're one
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: of the talks of the country where are they ranked
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, is there a chance they don't sell out
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: the Rose Bowl? but they'll get close to selling out.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: But they don't open up the entire Rose Bowl. They
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: tarp some of that off for UCLA games.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Imagine this scenario, though. Do you think there's a chance.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: They could sell out what they allow? I think Wisconsin
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: will travel pretty well out there, too.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: Wisconsin will travel well. I mean, all those, let's get
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: out of the Midwest, let's go to L.A., let's spend
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: a week. And it's in the Rose Bowl, which means
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: so much to those people. Imagine this scenario, 9-2 USC
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: at 9-2 LSU. to end the season.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Or a playoff spot, potentially.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: Winner probably gets an at-large without having to play in
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: the Big Ten championship game.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Would that sell out?
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: That would sell out.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: First time that game's had meaning in a long time.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: It used to sell out back in the day.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: It would sell out. That scenario, 100%. Yeah.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: I thought that was interesting. And then Kirby Smart got
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: asked about the Kirk Cignetti effect. Listen to Kirby Smart yesterday.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: You tell me if you think this is true, what
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Kirby says.
• 30:58
  Speaker 6: Kirby Golish is in his first year, and it's three
• 31:01
  Speaker 6: and two. I know your first year you went eight
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: and five. But I'm wondering, is there kind of a
• 31:08
  Speaker 6: Signetti effect where people are expecting too much these days?
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: Or have things changed? Have the dynamics changed where it
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: is easier to turn around a program pretty quickly?
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: I'm still waiting on the first Signetti effect in the SEC.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: So it's tough, tough, tough sledding week in, week out.
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: Maybe it could happen with the right guy bringing the
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: right players with him, but it's tough. Key to all
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: that is quarterback, and Coach Sinead's done a tremendous job
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: developing or bringing or getting quarterbacks, and that's a big
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: part to every offense's or team's success.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: So the Cignetti effect in the SEC, he's waiting to
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: see that. It's in the process right now. Are we close? Well,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Will Stein I don't think can land the plane. But
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: if he did, if he did, that would be the
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: definition of the Cignetti effect.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: And then people will say, hey, they had a beneficial
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: schedule and blah, blah, blah. It doesn't matter. They're Kentucky.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: That's what Cignetti did the first year. And it didn't
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: matter because it was Indiana.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: That's right. He's like Cignetti developing these quarterbacks or bringing them.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: He hadn't developed any quarterbacks, but he's done a hell
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: of a job with the operation that is Indiana right now, yeah,
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: it's going to be more difficult in the SEC because Cignetti,
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: as good as they were year one with Curtis Rourke,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: a real SEC schedule, they're probably eight and four. Yeah.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: That question seemed to bother Kirby a little bit.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: It did.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: If Kentucky can get to 10-2, now that means they
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: can only absorb one more loss, which is unlikely. But
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: if they can get there, would you call that, I mean,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: I guess they're in the college football playoff at 10-2.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: I don't know. You would have to tell me the
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: ranked wins again. For the whole season? Yeah. There won't
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: be any.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Who do they have to beat down the stretch here?
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: There's no way you can play nine SEC games and
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: not beat a ranked team.
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: Here's how they would get to 10-2. LSU is going
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: to be ranked at the end of the year. LSU
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: will be ranked. That may be the only one.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: Let me just do this. Here's how they get to 10-2.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: They're at Oklahoma. They host Vanderbilt. They're at Tennessee. They
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: host Florida.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: They're at Missouri. They host Louisville.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: They can only lose one of those games.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: This is unlikely.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying this will happen. But give me the
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: loss that they could absorb if you think they can
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: win the rest of them.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: Is it this week?
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: And Norman, Tennessee has owned them historically.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: And that would be a really good game. But I
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: lean Kentucky in that one right now. It's in Neyland.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: Right now, Missouri would be the one they could absorb
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: if they win the rest of them. Where we are
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: right now, Missouri's their toughest remaining game. If their losses
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: are Alabama and Oklahoma and they win the rest of
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: those games, they're in the college football. What if they
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: beat Oklahoma and their losses are only Alabama and Missouri?
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: They're in. We're going to have a difficulty at the
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: end of the year with enough SEC and Big Ten
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: teams being 10-2. There's going to be a lot of
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: 9-3 and 8-4 this year.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: My gut tells me Kentucky's about to regress to the mean.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: The water's about to find its level and This has
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: been a tremendous story, but the back half of this
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: schedule is going to get real for them. That's what
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: my gut tells me. If you had to guess Kentucky's
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: final record.
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: What are they, 5-1 right now?
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: 7-5.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: 7-5 is what I have, too.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they can find two more wins.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: I think 8-4 or 7-5.
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: Now he can go out and prove us wrong and
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: win in Norman.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: Just like Kirk Cignetti did that year.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: Every time. Every week.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Every week. It's going to happen.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Here it comes.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: Indiana's going to lose this week.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: People still say it about Cignetti. I heard this dude,
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: the Brown Bandit, was on our show a week ago today.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Thought it was going to be Nebraska. I called it
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: all summer long.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: It is this week, by the way. It's Ohio State.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: One more segment to go on sport and state. This
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: is the next round presented by Hard Rock Podcast. My
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: buddy Damien and people are saying, are you being a
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: little too hard on Will Wade talking about the, uh,
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: the fog and, uh, not being able to dense fog,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: not being able to get out of Baton Rouge for
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: sec media days. Alex Scarborough of, um, ESPN, uh, says
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: due to inclement weather, LSU basketball won't make the Birmingham
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: trip to Birmingham for the sec tip off preseason media
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: event space.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: Um, okay.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Uh, that was his, um, There are others that are
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: jumping in saying sort of the same thing, including Pat Forty.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Biggest story right now at SEC Basketball Media Days is
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: LSU not coming because of fog. So that's going on
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: here in town today, and that goes back. Some people
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: are reading into that, that there was a little LSU
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: SEC beef going on because of the roster lawsuits and
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: all of that that happened leading into the start of
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: the college football season. One more segment here, college football.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: We're going to hear from Pete Golding right here after
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: I tell you about our friends at Crockett Coffee. I've
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: already finished mine off this morning. Usually it lasts me
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: the entire sport and state show. But I enjoyed it
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: so much today that I downed it so quickly. It's
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: just a great tasting coffee. If you love coffee, give
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Crockett Coffee a try. CrockettCoffee.com. CrockettCoffee.com. It's just good coffee
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: made in America doing some good. When I say doing
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: some good, that's because Crockett Coffee has partnered with Tunnel
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: to Towers, building mortgage-free homes for the families of fallen
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: service members. So when you buy Crockett Coffee at CrockettCoffee.com,
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: you're helping out Tunnel to Towers as well. This is
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: the coffee that was started by Clay Travis, Buck Sexton,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: and Buck's brother Mason, named after the great Davy Crockett.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: It is small batch roasted right in America's heartland. It
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: is shipped to you when you set up a subscription.
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Free shipping over $ 59, and you get it however you
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: want it. I get mine medium roasted. They also have
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: the caffeinated organic and mushroom blend. It's all right there
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: with our friends at Crockett Coffee. CrockettCoffee.com. You called it, LT.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: You too, Brownie. Ole Miss-Missouri. Sneaky good game this week.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: Number 13 versus number 9. Here's Pete Golding getting asked
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: if he's playing the hottest team in the SEC right now,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: the Missouri Tigers.
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: Pete, apologies to Georgia and Kentucky.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Are you catching the hottest team in the league right now?
• 37:27
  Speaker 7: I mean, it feels like that every week right now,
• 37:30
  Speaker 7: you know. So I think that's this league, which is
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: awesome about the SEC. But, yeah, I mean, they're putting
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: up elite numbers on offense. I think they're averaging, you know,
• 37:38
  Speaker 7: 36 points a game and taking care of the football.
• 37:41
  Speaker 7: The back's a really good player, you know. It's surprising
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: you're saying that after they had the number one back
• 37:45
  Speaker 7: probably in the league, you know, coming in. And obviously
• 37:48
  Speaker 7: this kid's come in and played really well. He has
• 37:50
  Speaker 7: the most yards after contact right now. which is something
• 37:53
  Speaker 7: that has been an issue for us on tape. So
• 37:55
  Speaker 7: we're going to have to do a really good job
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: in the run game, obviously hopefully to stop the run game,
• 37:59
  Speaker 7: make them one-dimensional. And then obviously Caden presents issues. They've
• 38:02
  Speaker 7: got other really good players. And obviously we're going to
• 38:04
  Speaker 7: have to be able to affect the quarterback like you
• 38:06
  Speaker 7: do every week. And so I think it's a big challenge,
• 38:10
  Speaker 7: but hopefully our guys will be up for it.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: You wonder how personal this is for Austin Simmons in
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: this game. I mean, that is a big storyline here. Obviously,
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: for those that don't remember, he was the starter at
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Ole Miss until Trinidad Chambliss came in when Simmons got injured.
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: and Trinidad never left the field. And Austin Simmons, now Missouri,
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: playing well. I mean, he's played fantastic.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, averaging almost nine yards at a 10, completing 65%
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: of his passes. 14 touchdowns, one pick. One pick. I mean,
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: Trinidad Chambliss is the better quarterback. Pete Golding has the
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: better quarterback. It's the direction they had to go.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I'm right, too. Caden Lee, one of Missouri's best receivers,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: also came from Ole Miss, right? Didn't he come with him?
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: I think maybe his– let me check Caden Lee. Caden
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: Lee is a massive weapon, by the way. Seven catches,
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: 94 yards last week. Yeah, 42 grabs on the season.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: So Caden Lee, yeah, he came over from last year.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: So I thought they came almost as a package deal
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: that they went the portal together.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: But, I mean, they've got a three-headed monster on offense
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: right now with Austin Simmons, Caden Lee, and obviously our
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: stock up was Jamal Roberts.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: This feels like Drake's best team, too. I mean, he's
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: had these eight-win teams that kind of hover around nine.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: They might pull an upset here or there. This feels like,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: as of right now, the best team he's had in Missouri.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: I don't disagree, and I still question this Ole Miss defense.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: They got right last week against Vanderbilt when it was Vanderbilt.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: And against this offense, the way it's popping right now
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: in Missouri, I think Missouri can score points on them.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's why I was going to ask you,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: because Ole Miss in that slugfest shootout against Louisville to
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: start the season, they had the win over LSU. Then
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: they lost at Florida to, by the way, a team
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: that sort of plays offensive football the way that Florida
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: team that day played offensive football the way Missouri is
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: going to play football. Like you're going to have to
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: stop us from running the football first. And they couldn't
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: stop Jaden Ball that day at the Swamp. And now
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: they're playing a guy who is hotter than Jaden Ball
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: is right now in Jamal Roberts. So there's a lot
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: of similarities into what Pete faced at the Swamp and
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: what he's facing this week with Missouri.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: He's right.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: It does feel like it's a hot team every week.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: And Well, he played Vandy last week, so.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: That was a misstep. Okay, that's true. That was a
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: bit of an overstatement. Got to get a break every
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: now and then. When it got Florida, they were hot.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: When it got LSU, they were hot.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's had to play some hot teams this year,
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: but it feels like since that Florida loss, we have
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: put them on ignore, like on my do not call list. Well,
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: they had to buy after that, right?
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: They did, and then they played Vandy, which is boring.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: But that Florida loss, I mean, Ole Miss has been
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: out of sight.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: They have.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: I don't mind, to your point. And all it was
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: was a Florida loss, a bye week, a win in Vandy.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: But that seems like forever ago. Yeah, I mean, I
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: watched almost none of the, well, I'm just going to
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: be honest, I watched none of the Ole Miss-Vandy game.
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: Didn't watch play. It was.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was just I checked the score to see,
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: all right, do I need to look at this game?
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: And it was so over so quick.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: But, you know, going into that game, it seemed like
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Ole Miss should somewhat be on upset alert just based
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: on the fact that I forgot how many consecutive home
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: games Clark Lee had won. Yeah. It was a lot.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, he was on a pretty good streak. I
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: do want to bring up UCLA. We've talked about them
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: a couple of times this hour now. They're number 12
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: in the country. And the word did come out yesterday
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: that Nico Amelieva, the quarterback, is done for the season,
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: an ACL injury. Ty Deffenbach from Cal Poly is now
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: the starting quarterback, QB1. I have him as three of six,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: 43 yards and a touchdown when he came in. in
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: the second half. Is that all that you can muster
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: in the second half?
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, they were just running the football.
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is an unknown. This is terrible because... Terrible timing.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: You know, Nico wasn't great, but he was solid. Played
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: really bad against Oregon, but before that, he's been really,
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: really solid, but he's got a ton of experience, so
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: it's exactly what Chesney needs for that offense, and now
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: you don't have that.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: They think the injury happened. He played a play after
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: the injury, and then he didn't return. They think the
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: play happened when Bear Alexander... was trying to punch the
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: ball out and punched him in the helmet.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: And.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: I know Lanning was pissed about it. He was, but
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: he didn't... Or not Lanning, excuse me.
• 42:15
  Speaker 5: Chesney.
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and Lanning said yesterday he was not going to
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: suspend Pierre Alexander, but Chesney was pissed.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: And Chesney has said it's egregious after going back and
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: looking at it again at his news conference this week.
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: But Lanning says, I'm not... He's trying to punch the
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: ball out. It wasn't intentional. I'm not going to suspend him. Well,
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: Nico is on the ground. I mean, the Even if
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: you punch the ball out, he's on the ground. But
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: for those that didn't see it, and we can't show
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: the video, he's punching it from behind. Like, he's behind Nico,
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: and he kind of has to come under him and
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: punch it. And bodies are moving. I mean, I didn't
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: watch it and think he's trying to punch him in
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: the head. Why would you do that? The guy's wearing
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: a helmet. I thought he was trying to punch the
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: ball out. But it does look bad. I mean, there's
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: no doubt it looks bad. Well, a lot of those
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: punches now, if you're running down the field with them,
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: sometimes it looks like you're punching them in the stomach.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: And it's totally like Peanut Tillman, obviously the guy that
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: kind of originated this, invented it, so to speak. It
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: didn't seem as over the top. Like watching Nate Lamb
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: in last night, and he did it last year for
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: the Rams too. I mean, sometimes not even looking to
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: make the tackle, just looking to get in there and
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: punch the ball.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: But there's a difference between you've got a guy, you
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: arm around him, and you're punching or somebody's punching out.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: But to take a full swing at it like you're
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: throwing a punch in a fight, that seems almost illegal.
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: I wonder if we'll ever have a rule that you
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: can poke it, but you can't take a full swing.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know, because how do you officiate that? That's
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: going to be tough. We're never going to start getting
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: reviews for that.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: When you see Bear Alexander, did you think that looked like...
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: that he was trying to punch the ball out or
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: was he taking a swing? I thought he was trying
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: to punch the ball.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: I thought he was trying to punch the ball out
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: while he was taking a full swing.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: It's weird because Nico's on the ground, watching it right
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: here on my phone. Nico is on the ground down
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: and Alexander is, Nico's laying on top of Alexander and
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: they roll over and only then does he punch. Like
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: he knows they're on the ground.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: If anything, it was a.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Late punch that is silly. I just don't think he
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: was trying to punch him in the helmet though. My,
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Just me watching it on TV. I was watching it
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: when it happened. James Madison announced yesterday they're moving to
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: the American Conference, leaving a spot open in the Sun Belt.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: We'll see who fills that up. Jack State here locally
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: is one of the teams being mentioned to the Sun Belt.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: It would be a great move for them, but if
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: I'm James Madison, man, do you worry about getting calls
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: down the stretch?
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: Now that you're a short-timer in this league and there's
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: going to be some hurt feelings here. I don't just
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: based on this. They still have an outside shot.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: And that would be more money for the Sun Belt
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: to get a playoff team again? Didn't we see that same.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: Thing in basketball?
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to remember the team, but a team
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: was leaving a conference, and they were the team that
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: was going to represent that conference in the NCAA basketball tournament. Yeah,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember who that was. I can't remember
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: who it was, but it was recent. I just say
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: that about James Madison because there's going to be some
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: hurt feelings here. Was it Boise State in the Mountain West?
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: San Diego State in the Mountain West going to the Pac-12?
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: It might have been Boise State or something like that.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a bunch of them leaving the Mountain West. I
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: will say that JMU tree looking pretty good right now,
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: at least for one more week. Billy Napier, the team
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: that's still coaching James Madison, 6-0. Kirk Cignetti, the guy
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: who used to be at James Madison, now at Indiana, 6-0.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: And Bob Chesney, the guy who was at James Madison
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: last year at UCLA, 5-0. So between them, they're 17-0.
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: Chances are good this week Chesney and Sig go down.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: maybe Napier James Madison goes down that all three could
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: lose but for one more week that JMU tree looks
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: pretty good I think we've found that Sunbelt Billy has
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: found his water level right it's coaching in the Sunbelt
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: now it's about to be coaching in the American can
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: we still call him Sunbelt Billy when he's coaching the
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: American American Billy just doesn't sound as good.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Does not roll off the tongue. Do you think that's
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: good enough for him to stay? Do you think he'll
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: get another offer?
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know, man. I mean, you had Florida and
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: you couldn't do anything with it.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: Why would I hire you? There might be a genie
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: lamp in that closet at JMU, though. Good man.
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: They sold their soul to the devil. Remember to pack
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: it when you're leaving. All right, that's our first half
