- 0:19Speaker 1: Flip over to the offensive side. It's all about this quarterback.
- 0:21Speaker 1: I mean, it's a dude now.
- 0:23Speaker 2: This is a pro.
- 0:24Speaker 1: If you want to know what an NFL quarterback looks
- 0:26Speaker 1: like playing college ball, that's this kid. He's just got
- 0:30Speaker 1: a lot of experience last year as a freshman. And,
- 0:35Speaker 1: I mean, he is an elite passer. I mean, he
- 0:39Speaker 1: can make every throw from every angle, every area on
- 0:44Speaker 1: the field. I think he throws a really good deep ball.
- 0:47Speaker 1: He's got a great feel for the back shoulder ball.
- 0:51Speaker 1: He's a really good thrower on the run. But he
- 0:55Speaker 1: can place it. I mean, and he's athletic. He's big,
- 0:58Speaker 1: big and athletic. can move around, can hurt you with
- 1:02Speaker 1: his legs. I mean, he's just a really, really good
- 1:04Speaker 1: football player. So a lot of respect for him. And honestly,
- 1:08Speaker 1: I saw him last year prepping for the Louisville game.
- 1:11Speaker 1: You know, they played Cal, I guess, before us, and
- 1:14Speaker 1: I didn't know who he was. And I just remember
- 1:16Speaker 1: watching that tape going, when do we play Cal? Oh,
- 1:19Speaker 1: that's next year? And going, this guy's going to be
- 1:22Speaker 1: a problem.
- 1:23Speaker 3: I got bad news for you, Dabo. You play Cal
- 1:25Speaker 3: tonight at Cal at 1030. Although Dabo made a great
- 1:28Speaker 3: point this week as we get into our couch potato
- 1:30Speaker 3: guide and let you know what games, what sporting events
- 1:33Speaker 3: are on at what time as we all mentally plan
- 1:36Speaker 3: our weekend. But Dabo brought up a good point about
- 1:39Speaker 3: the time. They've started two games because of weather at 930.
- 1:43Speaker 3: So it's only one hour later than those two games.
- 1:46Speaker 3: Because they have been the Clemson weather delays. They might
- 1:51Speaker 3: want to change the name.
- 1:52Speaker 4: It's going to take a while back to get that
- 1:54Speaker 4: rest of y'all bus, though, from Clemson to Berkeley.
- 1:57Speaker 2: That's a long trip on the bus.
- 1:58Speaker 3: It's the rest of y'all playing this week, man. The
- 2:00Speaker 3: rest of y'all playing, I guess.
- 2:02Speaker 5: All right.
- 2:02Speaker 3: So let's get into it. Clemson Cal tonight at 1030.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Before that, you got Northwestern Indiana at eight o'clock on Fox.
- 2:12Speaker 4: Indiana's first real appearance of the season, honestly, tonight. I've
- 2:15Speaker 4: not really seen Indiana too much so far during the
- 2:17Speaker 4: first set of games besides highlights.
- 2:20Speaker 2: They have not played exactly. Not that Northwestern's going to
- 2:22Speaker 2: be here.
- 2:22Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm still not sure this is going to
- 2:24Speaker 3: be considered a real test, but we'll see. I know
- 2:26Speaker 3: Northwestern had that big rout of Colorado last week.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Indiana favored by 21 last time I saw it. There
- 2:32Speaker 2: you go.
- 2:32Speaker 5: There you go. So that sounds about right to me,
- 2:34Speaker 5: but we'll see. We'll see.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Starting tomorrow, noon window, Texas-Tennessee, one versus 14 on ABC.
- 2:43Speaker 3: That is a really fun matchup, no doubt about it.
- 2:46Speaker 5: Wake. Could they pull off an upset?
- 2:48Speaker 3: Could Louisville be in a spot for a letdown after
- 2:52Speaker 3: the big win against SMU?
- 2:55Speaker 5: That's on ESPN at noon.
- 2:57Speaker 3: You've got Ohio State, Illinois also at noon on Fox.
- 3:02Speaker 3: Hopefully that one will keep Gus Johnson a little more
- 3:04Speaker 3: lively than last week's Ohio State big noon game.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Yeah, wellness check on.
- 3:08Speaker 5: Gus, please.
- 3:10Speaker 2: Touchdown, Chris Henry.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Virginia Tech, B.C. First of all, Virginia Tech looks tremendous,
- 3:16Speaker 3: and they play Pitt next Friday. I am very much
- 3:19Speaker 3: looking forward to that game. But how bad is Boston College, Bone?
- 3:24Speaker 3: They only won by six last week against the main
- 3:27Speaker 3: team that App State beat by 50.
- 3:32Speaker 5: Are you kidding me?
- 3:33Speaker 4: I was checking scores on my phone of the games
- 3:35Speaker 4: that I didn't have on TV last week, and I
- 3:37Speaker 4: saw that score, and I thought, okay, I'm about two
- 3:40Speaker 4: minutes away from having to alert Mac that BC's in
- 3:43Speaker 4: trouble with me.
- 3:44Speaker 5: I didn't do it. Brutal, dude. Brutal. Brutal.
- 3:46Speaker 3: All right, so then you get to the afternoon window.
- 3:49Speaker 3: You got Notre Dame-Purdue on Peacock at 3 o'clock. You've
- 3:52Speaker 3: got Oklahoma at Georgia at 3.30. Arrogant Georgia fan wants
- 3:57Speaker 3: to know when you're talking about this game.
- 4:00Speaker 5: I'm talking about right now. We won't talk a.
- 4:02Speaker 3: Lot about it probably because I think we all think
- 4:05Speaker 3: that Oklahoma's offense is a joke and they will roll
- 4:08Speaker 3: into Athens and that Georgia defense will shut them down.
- 4:11Speaker 3: I mean, Mateer turned it over, had two interceptions bone
- 4:14Speaker 3: against New Mexico. It just feels like trouble for Oklahoma, man.
- 4:20Speaker 4: It feels like 31-3, 34-10. I don't really see Oklahoma, Mac,
- 4:25Speaker 4: scoring more. Maybe if double figures, it might be exactly 10.
- 4:30Speaker 4: I don't see them going higher than that.
- 4:31Speaker 5: It's hard to imagine.
- 4:32Speaker 2: Is it Georgia favored by 14, I think, in that game?
- 4:34Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 4:35Speaker 4: That feels like a Georgia cover, doesn't it? Yeah, that
- 4:37Speaker 4: feels like, man, yeah. That's my play of the week,
- 4:41Speaker 4: Georgia covers that one, if it's still 14th.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Maybe the best game of the day, Ole Miss coming
- 4:46Speaker 3: off the big emotional win against LSU at Florida in
- 4:49Speaker 3: the Swamp, 3-30 on ABC. Another ranked matchup, Iowa-Michigan, first
- 4:55Speaker 3: one to 10 wins. Boney, 3-30 on CBS. You have
- 5:00Speaker 3: East Carolina trying to get to 2-2 at 4 o'clock
- 5:03Speaker 3: on ESPN +, hosting North Carolina Central. And then you've
- 5:07Speaker 3: got Vanderbilt at 4-15, the 4-15 SEC Network game, Vanderbilt-Auburn.
- 5:13Speaker 5: Intriguing game. Intriguing.
- 5:14Speaker 2: Pretty good one.
- 5:15Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's actually one of those ones that, no,
- 5:17Speaker 3: that's a pretty good one there. Let's see, 6.30, you
- 5:21Speaker 3: have Charlotte hosting Louisiana on ESPN +.
- 5:25Speaker 5: 7 o'clock, you got.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Alabama hosting South Carolina on ESPN +. You've got West
- 5:32Speaker 3: Virginia hosting Oklahoma State.
- 5:33Speaker 5: That's a good one. Real good one.
- 5:35Speaker 1: FS1.
- 5:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Vandy Auburn and Oklahoma State West Virginia
- 5:40Speaker 4: could be two of those games that you wouldn't think
- 5:42Speaker 4: about right away.
- 5:43Speaker 3: But, yeah, I think they're going to be very good
- 5:44Speaker 3: games this weekend. Oklahoma State West Virginia. The winner of
- 5:48Speaker 3: that game could end up in the Big 12 title game.
- 5:50Speaker 3: I honestly believe that.
- 5:51Speaker 2: West by God, Virginia!
- 5:54Speaker 3: 7.30, you got App State at NC State. Very intriguing
- 5:58Speaker 3: game that the Appies have been texting about this week.
- 6:01Speaker 3: Where's State at emotionally? We'll talk about that one a
- 6:04Speaker 3: bunch today. Oregon, USC, NBC at 7.30, A & M, LSU,
- 6:10Speaker 3: ABC at 7.30.
- 6:11Speaker 5: And then, as if we don't have enough.
- 6:13Speaker 3: Match-ups of intrigue at night. Missouri at Mississippi State, ranked
- 6:17Speaker 3: versus ranked, 745 SEC Network. And on the same night,
- 6:22Speaker 3: Charlotte FC is playing Chicago in a four versus five match-up.
- 6:25Speaker 5: In the East. That's huge. Saturday night is just going
- 6:28Speaker 5: to be. I mean, it's going to be crazy, man.
- 6:31Speaker 4: I was going to say that there's no way Willie
- 6:34Speaker 4: P is not tweeting about cowbells, but he's got the
- 6:37Speaker 4: soccer game, though. Yeah, he's not going to be able
- 6:39Speaker 4: to watch at least until like the fourth quarter or
- 6:41Speaker 4: so of that, man.
- 6:43Speaker 5: You know what that means? Willie P, not a football guy.
- 6:48Speaker 3: You don't get an exemption for your job fitting. You
- 6:51Speaker 3: don't get an exemption, work exemption.
- 6:53Speaker 5: Nope. No.
- 6:55Speaker 3: Those are tough rules, man. Finney's tough. Let's see here.
- 6:58Speaker 3: What else do we want to mention? NASCAR at Kansas
- 7:01Speaker 3: on Sunday. The NFL plays a bunch of games, Boney.
- 7:05Speaker 3: Any of the games other than Panthers-Browns at 1 o'clock.
- 7:08Speaker 3: Any of the other games that.
- 7:09Speaker 5: You want to highlight?
- 7:10Speaker 4: Patriots-Jaguars is pretty good, I would say, for two playoff
- 7:14Speaker 4: teams last year. Chargers desperately need a win at Buffalo,
- 7:18Speaker 4: or they're in trouble. The late window, the 4 o'clock window, Mac,
- 7:21Speaker 4: not bad because we all want to see Tampa go
- 7:24Speaker 4: in three.
- 7:25Speaker 2: You've got Ravens-Cowboys.
- 7:26Speaker 5: Tampa-Minnesota.
- 7:28Speaker 2: You've got Vikings-Bucks.
- 7:29Speaker 4: You've got Ravens-Cowboys. Also, Raiders-Saints is the CBS debut. Of one,
- 7:36Speaker 4: Lucas August Kuechly on the CBS NFL broadcast.
- 7:39Speaker 5: There you go.
- 7:41Speaker 3: The Saints playing the 2-0 Raiders.
- 7:42Speaker 5: How about that?
- 7:43Speaker 3: I didn't see that coming. That's not a terrible game, honestly.
- 7:46Speaker 3: The Ravens in Dallas is the Brazil game. Apparently, the
- 7:50Speaker 3: turf is horrible in that soccer stadium. Apparently, it's just.
- 7:54Speaker 3: But the NFL, the show must go on. The show
- 7:57Speaker 3: must go on. Sunday night, Rams-Broncos, pretty interesting. I like
- 8:01Speaker 3: that one.
