  Speaker 1: This is college football with Stugatz and the Bear.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Now it's go time.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: T-Bob is with us. Wake up, barstool.
• 0:09
  Speaker 4: And then at the time of greatest triumph, I want
• 0:12
  Speaker 4: to suck from the cup of their tears.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: I want to watch their women.
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: And children writhing on the ground. Everything that is precious
• 0:20
  Speaker 4: to Ole Miss, everything they pray for when they lay
• 0:22
  Speaker 4: their head down at night and they talk to their creator,
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: you want to take all of that and you want
• 0:27
  Speaker 4: to melt it in front of their faces and pour
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: it back down their throat.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: And execute them.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, who cares?
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: What, are you kidding me?
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: If I heard somebody utter those words, I would throw
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: them out the second story of the football life.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: I love you boys.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Welcome in to episode three of College Football with Stugatz
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: and Bear. Magically, somehow, we have gotten T-Bob to appear
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: on all three of the episodes so far. We'll get
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: to him in a second. Mikey, what was going on here?
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Of course, I was the latest to the Zoom here, so.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: And I heard Bear and T-Bob just dorking out on
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: college football. Can you can you explain to me in
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: the audience what the hell was happening?
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: They were just so deep in the weeds about which
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: games we want to talk about on the show. And
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: then T-Bob had mentioned that your daughter, Rachel, is going
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: to babysit while he takes his wife to the magic room,
• 1:18
  Speaker 5: which we just call adult alone time in my house.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's called the magic room.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: Lounge.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Magic Room does not do it credit. The Magic Lounge.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Definitely underselling. That just puts a velvet couch on the
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: whole thing.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: That's exactly right.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Stu, how are you feeling?
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: Because right before we came on, I think you're a little,
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: you don't seem too excited about this little nighttime recording
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: we're doing here.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, so let's take him behind the curtain here. We
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: are doing this Wednesday night at 8 p.m. T-Bob asked
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: if that was Eastern or Central, and if it was Central.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: I would I'd be sleeping.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: I would be doing the show.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with it. You know, there's a Yankee Red
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Sox game going on. Taylor says it's a must win game.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I'm engulfed in the hockey season. I prefer not doing
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: four shows in a day, but that's on me. OK,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: that's not on anyone else but myself.
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: So I happily would be willing to hop online at
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: the Four Seasons Minneapolis on Friday morning. But I'm told
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: that gets Mikey very, very upset when I talk about.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Hotel wifi. So yes, yes.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: But you send something like a manifesto this morning via text.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's.
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Just bears full show rundowns via text. Yes.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: No Google doc action here.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Oh no, no, no, no, no.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Full text. Hell yes. Old school. No, just here. Communication notes,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: app text.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Listen, I know you two are prepared, so I don't
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: have to be.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: So I've had a T-Bob take us wherever you want
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: to go. What do you got Mikey?
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: Is it passive aggressive, Bear, to just take that giant
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: text that you sent with all that wonderful takes and
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: information and give it the thumbs up?
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Is it passive aggressive to do that?
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: The thumbs up is probably more passive aggressive than the– congratulations,
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: or I feel sorry for you.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not reading all that. I'd rather get the thumbs
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: up than that.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: The thumbs up is to let you know that you
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: looked at it, but you didn't actually.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, good.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Good. You sensed it. Thanks.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Appreciate it. I was actually having this conversation earlier today
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: on another show, which is that, yeah, like adding one
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: of those reactions to a text, is the perfect way
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: to end a text conversation, but there are levels to it.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: A heart means like, I genuinely enjoyed that, but now
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: it's over.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Okay, goodbye.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Exclamation's like, wow, I agree, but I'm not going to
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: expound on it.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Thumbs up is like, get the fuck out of here.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: I'm good. Yeah, please. I'm good. No more.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Mikey, put it on the poll.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: It's thumbs up. Get the fuck out of here. Yes
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: or no.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: All right. Well, let's start with some news then. We'll
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: start with news, and it's not going to be Burkett
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: College Scorps Act, okay? God, I just really fumbled that phonetically.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: PPCSA, right? Yeah, we're not going to talk that. That's
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: got to go to the House.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: It's a long way off until we've got to deal
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: with that speck of luck. What we are going to
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: talk about Bayer is the 2014 playoff. So I told
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: somebody yesterday, it just feels inevitable at this point. There's
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: too many people that benefit from expansion, even if it
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: waters down the product.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: To the viewer.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: And even if no viewer wants it, there's too many
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: people making a lot of money that would stand to
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: make even more money and have less risk in terms
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: of job security if it expands. So, Bear, do you
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: agree that it basically feels like an inevitability?
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: Yes, I do agree that it's going to happen. Whether
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: you like it, I like it, Stu likes it, Mike,
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: it doesn't matter. The power brokers in the sport want it.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: More importantly, the TV partners want it. Fox, ESPN, They
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: want more inventory. They want playoff games. They want games
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: that matter. And what happens now to some of the
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: other bowls that people say they love and care about,
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: are they ultimately going to go away? We're talking about
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: conference championship games getting bought out and nonexistent, which I
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: don't necessarily hate.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, I know a conference title.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: It felt like the SEC was really the only one
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: that ultimately mattered for the longest time, that the Big
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: Ten won does matter. but it feels like the ACC
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: and the Big 12 were just kind of there to
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: take up space. Whether you agree or disagree, I don't care.
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: But I am not a proponent of 24. I was wrong.
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: I thought four was good, but 12 has worked out perfectly.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: 12 is a good amount. 16 is a bit of
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: a stretch. 24 is just participation trophy. Look, what are
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: we doing now all week long is bitching and moaning
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: about About the AP poll and why is Missouri still ranked?
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: Why is this team ranked? Well, not only are you
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: going to be ranked now, they're going to be in
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: the frigging playoff. So I like we're rewarding like an
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: eight and 14 from the sec or the big 10
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: that happened to beat somebody good bottom. Like last year, Arizona,
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: Virginia would have been a playoff game.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Who wants that?
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Really?
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: I don't. Right.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: I'm not certain 12's not a stretch, but T-Bob, I
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: ask you this.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: You guys care about college football more than any two
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: people that I know. So T-Bob, and you care about
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the history, the traditions of college football. Do you want
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: it expanded? Do you want that, T-Bob?
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm pretty part and parcel with everything, or
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: pretty hand-in-hand with everything that.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Bear just said. I mean, if you think it's hard
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: to choose 11 and.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: 12 at large.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: And how in the world are you going to separate
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: 23 and 24?
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Right. When you have 10 teams.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: That are all eight and four that didn't play each
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: other that have barely any common opponents. Like, it's going
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: to be absurd. And you're taking away so much of
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: the luster of college football. And, yes, it works in
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: basketball because basketball is a sport where the upsets can
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: happen at a higher rate.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: The game isn't as intense. You can play more games.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: In football, that's not the case. And to lose– and, honestly, this.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Is something I think about a lot because, you know,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: Every day, it's the inexorable march of time. We're just
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: hurtling towards the grave because of how we experience time.
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: The more time we experience, the faster the next piece
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: of time goes. So we're literally just hurtling towards death.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: Things are going to change. We have to accept it. But, but, man,
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: it hurts to lose conference championships. Like, for me and
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: my personal fandom, those are some of my core memories
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: as an LSU fan with my grandpa as a player.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: winning those games. But I guess it's just the nature
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: of the beast. Cause if we're being honest, we already
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: lost the, the, the new year's day bowls, right? Like, like, like,
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: like they are not what they were.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: That used to be akin to winning the championship.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: You care about one of those. You got to lift
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: a trophy. You got confetti. You might've gotten a ring
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: depending on what school you went to. Citrus bowl. And
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: like all those outback bowl, all those games were great.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: But the other thing, The other thing an expanded playoff does,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: it gives coaches, and I think T-Bob was alluding to this,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: it gives them even more job security than they already
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: have because.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: They can just point and say, hey, we made the playoffs.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: But making the playoffs in an expanded playoff doesn't mean
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: your team was good and doesn't mean that you did
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: a good coaching job.
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: If you miss the playoff, there's going to be hell
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: to pay. How the hell didn't you make the playoff?
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: We have 24 teams in here now. They're going to
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: want to run your ass out even more now.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley will be sitting at number 25 and he'll
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: still be complaining.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Even USC and Lincoln Riley will make the playoff now.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: I think college head football coaches may be the most
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: paradoxical people we have on the planet in that they
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: coach the toughest sport and they demand toughness and commitment
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: and and perfection, and all these things, and yet they
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: are the most sensitive, most rabbit-eared, most soft, most excuse-shitting
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: out people we got in sports.
• 9:26
  Speaker 7: Like, oh, we went to nine games in the SEC
• 9:29
  Speaker 7: because you told us we were going to expand the playoff. Like, oh,
• 9:32
  Speaker 7: I need to play these cupcake games because I have
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: to be eligible.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: By the end.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Going after a B-rider to make $ 60K when you're going
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: to pay $ 10 million because your team sucks?
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: And you lost again?
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: I put it right up there with sports.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Media in terms of sensitive. It just makes me so upset.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: So they demand doing hard things. They demand all these
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: things and they refuse to do it themselves. And now
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: we're getting a watered down 2014 playoff where everybody makes
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: it but you know what but here's the question guys
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: we're gonna watch.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah man yeah yeah here's the question desires excuse me
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: for one second here's the question What voice were you
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: doing before?
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Who was that? Oh, I don't know.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: It was like, you look like Satan talking college football
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 10:21
  Speaker 7: I don't want to play non-conference games. I want to
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: stay at eight. Can I get Western Kentucky instead.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Of Ohio State? You're only paying me $ 12 million. I
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: won eight games last year. Like, what the fuck?
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: Half these guys are getting paid over a million to
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: win they want easier schedules sorry sorry sorry and i'm
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: sorry i'm sorry the point is we're all gonna watch
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: and that's what ultimately betrays us because the numbers will
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: go up the money will go up and it's our
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: fault because we're not willing to actually vote with our
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: eyeballs i don't.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Want to i want to watch college football so right
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: it is what it is.
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: Fan of playoff here we come all right but you
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: know what that's for the future Let's lock in for
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: this weekend because we've got another excellent slate.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: And one time when the game still is great is
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: on Saturday, guys.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: And there, look at what's going down in Iowa. Uh-oh.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: Hawkeyes fresh off beating Michigan, looking to go two for
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: two amongst the Big Ten Blue Blood heavyweights. Ohio State
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: coming to town this weekend. Bear, talk to me about
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: why Iowa's going to win this game. Hmm.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Why have you gone silent?
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: You wanted me to talk about why Iowa's going to
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: win the game, so I was just not saying anything. No,
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: they cannot drag Ohio State into an Iowa game. They
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: cannot Iowa Ohio State. Look at what Just think back
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: what happened last week in that game. A kick return
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: touchdown and pick at the goal line, stop a two-point conversion,
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: you get a 22-yard field goal attempt, and then two
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: ridiculous completions at.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: The end of the game. I mean, you know what
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: they call that, Stu?
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: Iowa.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: They call that winning.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: Iowa football.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's Iowa. That's how they do it there.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: That is how they do it. That's how they win
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: football games, Bear.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: But I think what Bear is saying, first off, I
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: think that Ohio State having a loss actually helps.
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: Them in this game.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: They can't afford to lose another game here, and they
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: certainly can't afford to lose to Iowa. I just think
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Ohio State's a much better team. And it's probably going
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: to steamroll on that. It was ridiculous them beating Michigan.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, the way they beat Michigan was almost as
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: ridiculous as the way Michigan won their first game. I mean,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: you know, it really was in some sort of weird,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: strange way because Iowa had no business winning that football game.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: But as T-Bob pointed out, that's Iowa football.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: They muck it up and that's how they win games.
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: And the interesting thing is when they're a double digit dog. Like,
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: it has not gone well for them lately. If you
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: go back, since they beat Urban and Ohio State and
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: JT through the four picks in 2017, when they bit
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: a double-digit dog, they've lost all seven of those games
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: by nearly 30 points a game. Remember that Big Ten
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: championship game a couple years ago was just an embarrassing loss?
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Against Michigan, that's.
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: More than likely what we are getting when Iowa takes
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: on a double-digit favorite like they are in this game.
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: We killed Bryce Underwood, but he had the one pick
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: last week that was really big in the game. I
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: don't want to sugarcoat that, but he threw for almost
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: 300 yards. I know Phil Parker is a defensive guru.
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: What is Jeremiah Smith and Julian? What are they going
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: to do to that Iowa defense if if it Bryce
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: Underwood's to have it a field day against him.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Little, little, little love food for thought here, boys.
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: Last year, Indiana was the most dynamic offense in the
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: entire country. They required a last second drive to beat Iowa. Oregon,
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: one of the most dynamic, skilled, fast offenses in the
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: entire country. They required a last second drive in Iowa. So,
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just saying, yeah, Just saying, dude.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: I hate this quote from Sark.
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: He said, quote, this is a big opportunity for our
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: team to go to a tough road environment against a
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: very good team and get a win. That would certainly
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: build a lot of momentum for our season as we
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: move forward. That's not somebody who thinks they're going to lose.
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: He's talking about just using it as a vaulting pad
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: to leap.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Over the rest of the schedule.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Mikey, have you already taken Ohio State here? No.
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: I took them before the season started like this is
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: this is already written.
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: Okay and i said i said sorry excuse me i
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: met ryan day but get ready to learn iowa guys
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: okay ference this is.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: His year i can feel it in my balls right
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: i think bear is trying to tell you to learn
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: get ready to learn.
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: Ohio state well he knows ohio state already well i
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: was gonna say i guess the problem is if you
• 14:56
  Speaker 6: know learning i was like watching them lose this game
• 14:59
  Speaker 6: by 20 and Jeremiah Smith spinning the corner back around 18.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I'd rather not learn Iowa. How's that sound?
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: I mean, one thing, one thing you did nail those two,
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: and this is some of the value in scheduling hard
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: games early in the season to Ohio state already having
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: gone on the road to Texas.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: Like they are, they, they got some scar tissue built
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: up and, and, and they know they have learned firsthand that,
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: the consequences of even a brief lapse in judgment. So, yeah,
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: I actually think Ohio State wins here. But I think
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: it's closer than maybe we're giving it credit for.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: But I think Ohio State wins. All right, let's do this.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: We've got a lot more games to get to.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: Let's take a quick break, and we'll be right back
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: on the college football show, which you've got to bear.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: All right, next game on the list here, guys. And
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: this one, ooh, man.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: This is a chance to either be completely boring or legendary,
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: and that is No. 7, Alabama, hitting the road to
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: Starkville to take on the undefeated 16th-ranked Mississippi State Bulldogs.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: And Bear, with this game, it's impossible not to start
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: with the quarterbacks.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: Kamaru Taylor and Keelan Russell are two of... the top
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: newcomers in the entire country in college football quarterweight.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Through the season.
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: You look at Keelan, he threw out 375 total yards
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: against Florida State, 400 last week against South Carolina, over
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: 11 yards a play. I mentioned it earlier in the week,
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: but South Carolina, I mean, Mississippi State's defense getting a
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: couple of big plays late against Missouri to get them
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: the win, but now the rubber hits the road here
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: for both of these teams. You look at the upcoming stretchers,
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: especially for Alabama with what they have coming up. This
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: was obviously a must-win for them with having Georgia coming up,
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: going to Tennessee, going to LSU. The great start that
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: Alabama has is all for naught, I think, if they
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: drop this game because I think you'll see them picking
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: up a couple more losses. And this is the biggest
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: game for the Bullies in a hell of a long time,
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: probably since that Auburn game or the Alabama game on
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: the road. uh, that they lost in 20 and 2014
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: when Dan was slowing the game down to try and
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: keep that scoring margin down. Maybe that they could still
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: kind of hang in the top four. So I'm going
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: back and forth. I think Mississippi state is a, a,
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: an underdog that is garnering a lot of support. Alabama
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: had a reduced number by the end, but might be
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: the way you want to go here. But I, I hate,
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: I don't want to bet against Mario Taylor anymore. I
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: did it last week and came back with egg on
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: my face. So, um, I'm going to sit back and
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: just enjoy this one as a fan. All games are
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: not meant to be bet.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: And this is one of them.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Fair to say, guys, if he beats Alabama at home,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: he gets a statue.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah.
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's kind of exactly what has been rattling
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: around in my head, which is already he's doing great things.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: And really, how we think about a person when it
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: comes to sports, it's never just objectively.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: What you do. It's really....
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: How it relates to expectations, right? And so already he's
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: kind of starting to blow those out the water. But
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: if you want to take a nuke to those expectations
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: and really blow people's hair back to your points, Stu,
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: this is where you have an opportunity to write your legend.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: Because this is a beatable Alabama team. I think they're
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: better than Mississippi State. And I think this game could
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: follow the same rhythm that a couple of the other
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: games have.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: But Bear, there is something about beating Alabama. Remember what
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: it did for Johnny Manziel. I know he did it.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I think he did it at Alabama, this game at home.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: But there is something still about beating that team, about
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: beating that brand that would probably vault him. Not that
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: he's not already there, but very much into the upper
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: echelon of the Heisman conversation.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: Clearly, if they were to win this game, he's definitely
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: up there with Mensah and probably goes to number one.
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: I would think that winning, he's going to have the
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: rest of the season to to go out there and
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: do it and keep those numbers up and win a
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: couple of more big games, uh, in, in the sec.
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: But yeah, this, this is going to be an awesome
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: game to watch.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: Um, and, and one thing about this game is to me,
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: it's kind of what Camario Taylor represents in college football
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: as a whole. Cause we all know bear, uh, uh,
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: Stu that, that Miami, we know what your Miami hurricanes
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: want to do. They, want to come in next year.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: They want to pay Kamaru Taylor $ 15 million to come
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: be the quarterback.
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: Why not $ 20 million?
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: He deserves it.
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: There's a million stories, examples of him saying, I'm staying,
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: I'm staying. And he wants to build a team that
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: will be memorable and stark.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: Right now in.
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: College football, there's no greater resource than investor confidence. And
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: so if you have the money, people, that believe, okay,
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: we have the quarterback, we can beat Alabama, money will
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: begin to flow into this program like Jeff Levy couldn't believe.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: You can start to surround him with more talent.
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: Like it represents nowadays a game like this represents a
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: potential launching pad for the program as a whole during
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: the Camario Taylor era. So this is as big of
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: a game in Starkville probably since, like you were alluding to, Bear,
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: over a decade ago, I think now at this point.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: That said, I think Alabama, like I said, I think
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: it's close, just like Alabama did with Kentucky, just like
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: they did with Florida State. And then I think Alabama
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: likely pulls away at the end because the talent gap
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: is a bit too large.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Well, Bear, how do you feel about what he just said?
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Because the games will come.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: For Camario Taylor and like $ 15 million in Starkville.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: That's like five bucks.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: Down here in Miami.
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: So he's saying that he's saying the right things though.
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: And he's a local kid who, and we'll see ultimately
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: when a push comes to shove at the end of
• 21:16
  Speaker 6: the year, whether it's Miami, whether it's LSU, whether it's Texas,
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: whomever the, the dollar does, does talk.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: And for some people, it matters. Some people, um, It doesn't. Well,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: that story will be written.
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: So in a way, it's kind of like a proxy
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: word for the soul of college football. But again, if
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: you just look at the numbers right now, Keelan Russell,
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: fourth in the SEC in pass rating, Camaro second. Keelan Russell,
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: 280 yards a game. Camaro's at 290. They're both completing 70%
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: of his passes. They're both over 10 yards per attempt.
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: You are talking about two elite newcomers on the college
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: football stage. And for Alabama, This like, this is Kalen
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: DeBoer's year to make people believe that, yes, we're not
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: going to be the Saban era, but we're going to
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: show you that we're going to have an uptick because
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: right now they've never collapsed, but they've kind of slowly
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: been taking these steps back. And for, for DeBoer and company,
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: it's a show. No, no, we're still here. We're still
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: at least somewhat Alabama for Mississippi state.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: It's like, okay, do you want to.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Evolve from being a cute story to an actual real team?
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: This is the game that you got to go win.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, what do you think, Bear? Who do you
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: think ends up winning?
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: So I always love the team that's reminding everyone that, hey,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: we're still Alabama.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I always like that advantage. Like, hey, we're here. You
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: have to beat us.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: If you want to be talked about the way you
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: want to be talked about, you're going to have to
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: beat us.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: We don't care if we play at home. We don't
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: care if we play on the road.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: We've been there. We've done that. I always love that.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised you guys are.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Leaning a little bit, it seems like Bear is, towards
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Mississippi State because I think this is an unexpected good
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: opportunity for Alabama to pick up a really good victory
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: here on the road.
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: You saying that we're still reminds me of 2005 being
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: on the sideline for that game. Miami going to Virginia Tech,
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: and Virginia Tech I think was number two or three
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: or something in the country. at that point and I
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: can remember the scene there so I can remember Art
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: Kehoe long time offensive line.
• 23:21
  Speaker 8: Coach shout out he recruited me in high school shout
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: out coach Kehoe and I can remember him walking on
• 23:28
  Speaker 8: the sideline kind of looking around me like we're still
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: Miami and they went out and won I think 27-7
• 23:33
  Speaker 8: and just completely smothered Marcus Vick and Virginia Tech that
• 23:37
  Speaker 8: night so they're.
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: Opportunities for blue blood programs like this to where they
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: maybe feel a little slighted or when they feel like
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: they might be on upset alert.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Um, I'm with you, Stewie.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: It's a good opportunity for Alabama to kind of be like, yeah, we're, we're,
• 23:52
  Speaker 6: we're still Alabama.
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: I look for me, Stu, what it is, is I'm just, uh, well,
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: I definitely hate Alabama. I always have, but, but more
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: so like, I.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Know someone that calls Alabama. I mean, I know someone
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: that says LS poo. It's a terribly juvenile joke.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: I know. Shut up!
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: It's funny!
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Mikey, you made a face like you just smelled poop!
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: No, I think for me, Stu, what it is, if
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: it's Alabama leading Mississippi State, I love narratives, right? When
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: it comes to college football, that is my favorite part
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: of the game, are the storylines that we see created
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: every Saturday, and Ooh, watching Mississippi State get a home
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: win with their chosen one, their prophesied messiah, like.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: And slay the demon that is Alabama. I just can't.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Just sets my fantasy-loving heart alight.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Mikey, for the life of me, I had no idea
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: that at any point during this college football season, we
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: would spend 20 minutes on Mississippi State.
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: Hey, welcome to the college football show.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: Not since Dak.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: Which, by the way, Dak apparently talking to Camario to
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: get him to stay.
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: And if I had to imagine, also probably a great NIL.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: Dak better pay.
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's going to go beyond talking, to
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: be clear.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: Next up on this list, speaking of narratives, what happens
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: when a once- slumbering beast wakes up again because that's
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: exactly what we've seen gone down in Gainesville, Florida this year.
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: Just like that, the Florida Gators, the Swamp, it's all back.
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: New head coach, Summerwell's got them all. Best running back
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: in the entire country. Only this week, Bear, shoes on
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: the other foot, right? Ole Miss, emotional win. Has to
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: go to the Swamp last week. Gets dominated. Now Florida,
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: emotional win. Has to immediately hit the road again. and
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: play a pretty damn good Missouri team, dude. I believe so,
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: at least. If they had Ahmad Hardy, they'd be really good.
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: What's your early read on this one?
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: I got burned by Missouri last week when I liked
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: them against Mississippi State. You talk about narratives and narrative-breaking
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: results and wins. We talked about joking about Missouri still
• 26:18
  Speaker 6: hanging around the rankings there, and why are we still
• 26:20
  Speaker 6: ranking them? This is the Missouri team that Eli Drinkwitz
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: in the regular season, 0-10 versus top 10 opponents. They
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: don't have a marquee win. Watch them now. You talked
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: about it last week. Nobody wanted to bet Florida. Everybody
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: wanted to bet Ole Miss. Now this week, everyone wants
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: to bet Florida. No one wants to bet Missouri. This
• 26:42
  Speaker 6: is a dangerous, dangerous game for Florida. The one big
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: question I have for Florida is if they happen to
• 26:51
  Speaker 6: get behind Can Aaron Filo, can they throw to make
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: a comeback? I think they probably can, but you need
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: to be in that position to ultimately see it. Now, look,
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: as a Florida fan, do you want to be in
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: that position? No, you want to be able to control
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: the line of scrimmage with your offensive and defensive line
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: and win up front, but you need to see if
• 27:14
  Speaker 6: Florida falls behind, if indeed. The thing is, their defense
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: has been bad. they've allowed a lot of yards through
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: the air. This could be an Austin Simmons type game
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: because he's another guy who has been fantastic this year
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: and not really getting a lot of talk in the
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: SEC just because Camario has been so good.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the Ole Miss transfer, Kaden Lee, a receiver, was
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: great last week. Him and Austin Simmons, one of the
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: better early connections in the entirety of the SEC. I mean,
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: Austin Simmons, 11 touchdowns, no picks on the year thus far.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: So as you alluded to, Bear, playing really good football.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: Jamar Roberts, pretty good running back. But Stu, what travels
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: in football? You know what travels?
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: Defense.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: That's right. Well, yes. But what else? Running game.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I love ball. I'm a ball leaver.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: How about that? You guys don't say the bear doesn't
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: seem to be a bear. What happens when you get
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: burned by a team like you did with Missouri? Will
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: you will you not go back to that team for
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: a couple of weeks? Like what happens there in terms
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: of betting strategy?
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: No, I'll go back to them. I went back to
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: the well with Auburn a few times last year. in
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: my super contest, like three straight weeks, if they had
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: the lead and we're covering the entire game and then
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: wind up not covering it, it ultimately killed me. No,
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: but I, as a, as a better, as a handicapper,
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: you need to have a very short memory, a short leash.
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: You just kind of forget things quickly or never hold
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: a grudge because who you hate one week is going
• 28:41
  Speaker 6: to be someone that you might wind up loving.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: The next person.
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: Like everything in everything in my mind and what I
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: believe in tells me Missouri's the right side here.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: Really? Wow. I like Florida's team. I do.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I love their coach. That's what I want my head
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: coach to talk like. That's how I want him to look.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: 6 a.m.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Pump.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Yes. I just love his attitude.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: For the first time in a long time, I could
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: say this. Florida looks like it has NFL players all
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: over the field. I don't know if they do or not.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: It just physically looks like they're bigger than the other
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: teams that they're playing.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: They're faster. than most of the teams they're playing.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: It's the best Florida team, and I paid attention to
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: that program for a while now simply because my wife
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: goes to that school and.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: We go to a ton of games. I will tell you,
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: that's the best they've looked in a long time.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: It looks like an NFL team out there, guys who
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: can play in the NFL. I'm not certain if they
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: win the SEC, make the playoff. I just know they're
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: better than they were in years past.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: That's the great irony of Billy Napier is he could
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: recruit well. like he there is nfl talent right all
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: over that team everywhere for whatever reason just have he's
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: the guy to get them uh moving the right direction
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: actually winning games.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Stew who's the oc oh man uh ball Philo. Philo? No,
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: it's a memorable name.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Philo?
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: He wears Devizer, Buster, Faulkner.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: I got Summerall right. You did get Summerall right. Very good.
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: You got a lot of names right just in, like,
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: square peg, round hole.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Yes. I mean, what do you want from me?
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: I don't care about the offensive coordinator.
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: Are you bringing your kid into the picture here? He's
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: banging on the door. He wants to come say hi
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: to the boys. What's going on? Claude Bob, say what's
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: up to the boys.
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: That's who Rachel is babysitting. Awesome.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Who's the OC for Florida? That's your father. Oh, there
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: you go. Jesus, how could he not know? It's all
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: you talk about.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, poor kid.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: All right. Next up on the list.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: Bear, you're Kane. Miami at Clemson. And you kind of
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: talked about this earlier, Stu.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Like, Alabama....
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: Is even if they're not the alabama the past it's
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: still beating alabama it's a big deal of course clemson
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: still has a little bit of that going on only
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: this is very much a 55 year old boxer who
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: hasn't held a belt in well over a decade i
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: mean this is shack on the celtics michael on the
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: wizards malone on the lakers i think one was malone
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: it doesn't matter like like It still matters for Miami
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: in terms of you can tell the average person.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: Like, whoa, no way. But, like, Clemson's terrible. Miami's going
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: to destroy them there. They should. It reminds me a little.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: Not convincing.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: It's a road game. I mean, who knows what the
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: hell can happen? No, Bear, that's crap.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: If y'all are supposed to be as good as you are,
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: Clemson sucks.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Clemson's offense is ass.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 31:48
  Speaker 6: I mean, they're a bad on offense with a young
• 31:50
  Speaker 6: freshman quarterback. That offensive line should get absolutely eaten alive
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: by Miami's front.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Unquestionably.
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: This is on the other side of the ball. They
• 32:00
  Speaker 6: allowed over 300 yards rushing against LSU. North Carolina ran
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: for like 215 against them. Like this should be like
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: a just feed Mark Fletcher type game. It reminds me
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: of the situation in 2013 when the ACC was an
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: ass league, but Florida state was really, really good.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:21
  Speaker 6: Like people were saying like, ah, we don't know Florida
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: state good. Are they, are they ACC good?
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: And they went to Clemson and kicked the whole Jameis,
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: are we going to do it in the locker room?
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: And they kicked the shit out of it. It was 51-14.
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: The place emptied out by halftime. Florida State went on
• 32:40
  Speaker 6: to win the national championship. And it has a little
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: bit of a feel, at least from my perspective this week,
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: where I think people are still questioning Miami. The schedule's
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: been garbage so far.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: Well, it has been, Bear.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, it has been.
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: They do have two road conference wins, if you want
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: to look at it that way. And Wake Forest win
• 33:00
  Speaker 6: does look a hell of a lot better now. being
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: that Wake went on the road and beat Louisville. But
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: what you said, people are still questioning whether Miami is
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: this good, even though they got to the title game
• 33:10
  Speaker 6: last year and they've dominated everybody. And I think it's
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: an opportunity for them to go out and win a
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: game where people are going to have the same reaction
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: that they did with the Noles in 2013. It's going
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: to be like, oh, shit, wow, they are that good. So, yeah,
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: I think Miami goes out. I think they win very,
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: very big on Saturday night.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: I think what people are waiting to see, because they
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: want to see it happen consistently. This is a game
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: in years past that Miami may lose, right? Or it
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: might be close or Mario might make a bad decision
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: late in the game that would cost them the game.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: It might be a game that they would lose, but
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: this is a different Miami.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: I believe in it. And I was one of those
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: people who would say that about the hurricanes.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: This is a game they would go on the road
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: and typically lose because it's still Clemson.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: Yes. And it's still the best team they played this year.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: Yes. but they're not Clemson anymore, okay?
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: And Miami should win this game and should win it
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: by a lot, and I think that they will because
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I think it's different now.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: That team is littered with NFL players.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, at every single position, they're as talented as
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: any team in the country, and Clemson's simply just not
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: as good anymore. And so I think Miami's going to
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: beat them and beat them by a lot. And beating
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Clemson is not as impressive as it used to be,
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: but it's still the best win for Miami if indeed
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: they get the win this weekend.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: But it does.
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: Still have water cooler value. where the average person who
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: isn't a college football nerd like me or Bear hears,
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: oh my.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: God, Miami beat Clemson by how much?
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's a brand.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: Clemson, they win their own.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: It's a brand, yes.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: How about this?
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: I've never seen anything like this. I mentioned this on Twitter,
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: and I've been getting a bit of pushback here. Darian
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: Mintz's stat line right now, through four games, he's completing 89%
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: of his passes, guys.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: He has, Stu, I don't care who you played.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: He has 14 touchdowns to 12 incompletions.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Like, I've seen guys do that over a single game.
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: Regardless of competition, it should be impossible in a four-game
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: sample to have more touchdowns and incompletions, especially when you're
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: throwing the ball this much. And in Malachi, Tony, you
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: have the single most exciting player in college football. He's
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: first in the ACC in receptions per game, yards per.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Game, tons. He's incredible.
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: You want me to say that's impressive, and it is.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: But I would also tell you, do it against a
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: good team.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, seriously, they have played absolutely no one. I mean,
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: I need to see him play.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: You are the same Jagoffs in my Twitter replies right now. Guys,
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: that's not the point. It's not that he's going to
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: do that against the best teams.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: The point is... That shouldn't be possible even against the
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: bad team. I understand that.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying play at that level or somewhere close
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: to that level against the good teams, and he's yet
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: to play a good team. I'll be more impressed if
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: he does it on the road against Clemson, but I
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: haven't seen him do it against anyone.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. Do it in Death Valley. Well,
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: he's going to have the opportunity to. And you know what?
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: This is a slight step up for Miami, though Wake
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: Forest could be.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: Better than Clemson. Potentially. I think Wake is better than Clemson. Yeah.
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, you guys will love this.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: After the fact, after I already picked him and put
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: money on him, Mikey told me to stop betting against
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Wake Forest.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: All right. Let's go to a quick break, guys.
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: We've got a couple more games, DJ, and we're going
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: to give you some potential upset picks for the weekend.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: Here in the College Football Show with Sue Gotsen-Bear. All right,
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: one final game here, guys. We don't have to spend
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: a lot of time on, but there are maybe a
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: couple of interesting angles there. Washington at USC. What did
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: you know?
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: Another disappointment with the Lincoln-Riley area at SC. But if
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: there's a bigger disappointment in the Big Ten, it's got
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: to be Washington. Probably the biggest disappointment in the entire.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Country, arguably, right now.
• 37:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, if you look at what they've lost in the
• 37:07
  Speaker 6: running back position, like they are down a bunch of
• 37:09
  Speaker 6: guys right now, and it shows offensively.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, their offensive line was terrible.
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: Last week against Minnesota and Minnesota's defense was in the
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: backfield all game on DeMond Williams.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: It's going to be interesting to see.
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: We were talking about before we came on about that
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: locker room and the DeMond Williams, he was looking to
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: leave last year. Now he's back. Could get, could get
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: a little ugly there. These are the types of teams though,
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: that Lincoln Riley and SC feast on. It's a really
• 37:35
  Speaker 6: good opportunity for them to get back on the, into
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: winning ways, get a win over a team that sounds
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: good still, even though they aren't as good. And that
• 37:45
  Speaker 6: might help the big 10 moving forward. Like, like Washington
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: still sounds like they're a good team and a good win,
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: even though they're really not. And they're kind of in
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: that middle-ish tier, but really they're closer to the bottom third.
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: So maybe them like being bad and being a win
• 38:01
  Speaker 6: that sounds better than it actually is in a weird way,
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: like might be good for like the, ucla's and nebraska's
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: all the middle level of the uh the big 10.
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah i i the the storyline that i just can't
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: escape here it should be usc because like that's like
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: the way bigger name and that's what we should be
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: talking about but but you referenced damon williams signing the
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: big deal to stay at washington trying to leave last
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: minute to go to lsu Them literally suing DeMond Williams
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: and his camp, the boosters turning on him, the coach
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: turning on him, the locker room turning on him. Then
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: very awkwardly, he kind of comes back. He's like, actually, guys,
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: let's just put that toothpaste back in the tube. And
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: everybody's obviously like, oh, we're cool.
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: We're cool. We're cool.
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: Well, nothing will expose the crack more in relationships than
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: losing football games. That has got to be the single
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: most toxic, miserable, backstabbing, shit-talking locker room in the entire
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: country right now. It's got to be an absolute disaster.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: So I want to ask both of you a question
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: because I do think USC is the most interesting element
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: of the game, and usually they are when they're playing
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: a football game because they're one of those brands that
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: we talk about. But there are rumors now, there are talks,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: people talking about Lincoln Riley and his job. So Taylor, myself, Mikey,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: we were discussing this and I'm interested in your thoughts.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: If the USC job became available, would it be a
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: coveted job? And if Lincoln Riley became available, would he
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: be a coveted coach?
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: The job? Absolutely.
• 39:39
  Speaker 6: You're, you're in LA and a California recruiting base in
• 39:43
  Speaker 6: the big 10. It's absolutely incredible.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: A coveted marquee.
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: Okay, let me frame it a different way, Bear. If
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: they offered Bob Chesney the job, would he take it? Yes.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: I said that. Yes.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, he would? Yes.
• 39:58
  Speaker 6: Even though he seemingly got things rolling at UCLA right now?
• 40:01
  Speaker 6: I think you've got more resources at SC.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, God, that would be brutal. That would be the
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: ultimate Big Brother move. UCLA finally gets a little bit
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: of hope.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: Wayne Knight is like the best running back outside of
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: Jaden Barnett.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: He just steps in and gets plucked by FC. Yes.
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, I do think we're headed there.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: I think we're headed to a place where Lincoln Riley
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: finally is no longer the USC head coach.
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: It should happen years ago.
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: So the second part of the question is Lincoln Riley
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: still a good hire?
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: I think, um, yeah, I think, yeah, I think, well,
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: hold on. Let me define good hire. You're telling me
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: like top tier programs bear are going to be interested
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: in Lincoln Riley.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Cause I think it's going to be more like BC
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: and Rutgers. <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>.
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: I think if you look at some of the big
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: 12 schools, some of the, uh, some, some of the
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: sec schools that are kind of, uh, in like the,
• 40:51
  Speaker 6: the old big 12 Southwest conference, like, Demo as well.
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, no, he would.
• 40:56
  Speaker 6: Be certainly be a very coveted hire just because it
• 41:00
  Speaker 6: was obvious all because it did.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Like he took Oklahoma home to play a bunch.
• 41:03
  Speaker 6: I got what Ford for consecutive quarterbacks or four quarterbacks
• 41:07
  Speaker 6: go number one overall.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: It's not like the guy can't coach offense.
• 41:11
  Speaker 6: It just feels like a, like an odd fit in
• 41:16
  Speaker 6: all because it doesn't work at SC doesn't mean it's
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: not going to work.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, it worked in Oklahoma. Jada, Jada, my avoidance
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: were to Jada.
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: My office has been great under like his development has
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: been fantastic.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: How about this? Clemson.
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: Sure i'm saying get rid of that oh i could
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: see him hiring lincoln like that that could actually make
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: sense he would modernize the program you'd excite the fan
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: base a little bit he probably fits in the south
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: a bit better.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: Than he did uh i could see it well look
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: at the.
• 41:44
  Speaker 6: Jobs that are going to come up we think maryland's
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: going to come open we think south carolina is going
• 41:49
  Speaker 6: to come open yeah who knows if clemson comes open
• 41:52
  Speaker 6: florida state may come open like they're they're going to
• 41:56
  Speaker 6: be some very You don't think Florida State would kill
• 42:00
  Speaker 6: for Lincoln O'Reilly right now instead of Mike Norvell?
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm asking you.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: I have no idea. I would absolutely. That's my point,
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: They'd take Quad Bob right now over Mike Norvell.
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: Hey, Quad Bob's a dumbass. He can't even count to ten.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: He doesn't know his ABCs. That would be a terrible,
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: terrible choice.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry I brought it to coaching in the hot seat,
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: but that's, you know, when I'm there, I'm in heaven.
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's what it's about, but that is what
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: Lincoln is on a thousand percent. I mean, bear said
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: it last week, if not now, when in that Oregon game,
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: then Oregon loses their starting quarterback and they still couldn't
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: get it done. Stu speaking of school of broadcasting. Did
• 42:43
  Speaker 4: you see the USC play by play guy?
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: I did not know what happened.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: Oh my God. Oh, I wish we had this clip.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: I should have put this in there. Absolute legend. Mikey,
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: have you seen this? He, so did you saw the
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Dante Moore hit? He slides.
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: Oh, of course.
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: Yes. Take it off. Very cheap shot, right?
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: The USC play-by-play guy says Dante Moore dove forward. And
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: then the spotters go, it's like, well, no, his feet,
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: his feet are, you know, his feet are in front
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: of him.
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, he got spun around by the hit. Yeah.
• 43:14
  Speaker 4: He's like, Dante Moore, he kind of slid with his
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: knees first. And his color guy's looking at the camera like, mm.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: But I appreciate that.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: I want my local radio to be a Homer, to
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: be a bigger Homer than me.
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: I wanted to have the Trojan and gold, the gold
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: glasses on shout out to the announcer. I loved him.
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: Also, has he been suspended?
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, just, I don't think I know.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: I don't think so, but I get the analyst on
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: the show.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: I just want him to put us in the booth
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: when he's making that call. Give me old school. Larry
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: months in there. Yeah. Say, and we, we, and us.
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: One final question here on Lincoln Riley. This is I
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: just want to see where I could push it. Is
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: the job attractive enough for like a Dan Lanning to
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: leave Oregon.
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: To go to USC? No.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: OK, so where can I push that bear?
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: Like, where can I say the job is still attractive
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: enough that X would.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: Leave Y College to go to USC?
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Like would Mario leave?
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: No, no.
• 44:15
  Speaker 4: OK.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: So where can we push that?
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: Mario's going to die as Miami head coach.
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: Okay, so how far can we push it?
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to think about the blue bloods.
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: I mean... It's tough, yes.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: James Franklin?
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's like Virginia Tech, right? Because like Will Stein, Kentucky,
• 44:38
  Speaker 4: absolutely Kentucky.
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: You'd leave Kentucky. Franklin would have left Penn State for
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: SC at heartbeat.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: I love watching you guys work this out, by the way.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: It's fantastic. Would you leave Penn State for SC, actually?
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: Matt Campbell. I'm not even talking Campbell specifically. I'm trying
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: to think about job to job.
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: Would you leave X school for USC?
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: Yes. You would leave Penn State? Yes. That might be
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: a pretty big one, then.
• 45:05
  Speaker 6: More of a lifestyle thing than anything else. If you've
• 45:09
  Speaker 6: been to State College and you've been to L.A., they're
• 45:11
  Speaker 6: not exactly similar. L.A.
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: Sucks. But then again, if you're a college head coach,
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: you have like $ 10 million. It's probably awesome.
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: State College is the saddest place in America.
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: It's one of the most difficult places to get to,
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: that's for sure.
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: It must be hard to breathe up there, guys, in
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: your golden thrones, just looking down at your big metropolitan
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: South Beach Miami.
• 45:33
  Speaker 6: State College is great. Penn State's the first school that
• 45:37
  Speaker 6: got me in love with college football.
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: Big Joe Pond guy.
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: From the Northeast, yes.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: You had no one else to root for, right? Would
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: you leave Notre Dame for SC?
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: See, I'm just telling you, USC is one of the
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: premier jobs. I'm just wondering if.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: It still is, you know? The South Bend is no
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: spring chicken.
• 45:59
  Speaker 6: I'd leave Notre Dame for a C. I think Barry
• 46:04
  Speaker 6: just loves L.A. He just wants a little serpenter. How
• 46:09
  Speaker 6: about Stu Gantz coming in with a great question here?
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: Yes. He's so.
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: wound up and so interested in the lincoln room we
• 46:16
  Speaker 6: have that you know i'm gonna you know i'm gonna
• 46:18
  Speaker 6: ask ask the guys have been doing that this question
• 46:20
  Speaker 6: this weekend.
• 46:22
  Speaker 5: This was my question that he took from me and
• 46:24
  Speaker 5: brought to you just so we're.
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: All 100 yes no no question yes that's.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: Great so i didn't have to do any work and
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: just watch you guys talk it out.
• 46:33
  Speaker 6: Oh that's a that's why stew's first ballot will you
• 46:37
  Speaker 6: leave alabama to go to usc now we're talking bear.
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: That's what i'm talking.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: About probably i think you would Yeah, I think. Would
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: Lane leave? Yeah, I mean, never say never, Lane. Have
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Hayden there anymore?
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: I know Lane's going to leave.
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: Mississippi's head coach would leave, right? Todd Golden, he'd leave.
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: Wait, what? Mississippi State's head coach, Todd Golden?
• 46:59
  Speaker 3: What's his name?
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know what his name is.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: But he would leave Mississippi to go to USC, would
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: he not?
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jeff Levy. Jeff Levy would definitely leave.
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: To go to USC. Sounds right. Thank you.
• 47:08
  Speaker 8: Golden is the Florida basketball coach.
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Taylor. Close. I think he's a Bay Area guy.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: Isn't Golden a Bay Area guy? Would Todd Golden leave
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: to be USC's head football coach? I kind of love
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: that question.
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: Would he leave Florida basketball to go coach USC football?
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: Would he? All right. Oh, man.
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: Last question on the list here, boys.
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: We have Bayer put together a grouping of teams here,
• 47:47
  Speaker 4: and these are ranked teams going on the road against
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: an unranked team. Real quick before I list them, Bayer,
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: what is the angle from a gambling perspective on this
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: kind of game archetype?
• 48:00
  Speaker 6: Typically it's a spot where you like to play underdogs
• 48:03
  Speaker 6: on money lines because road, road games are hard. Certainly
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: road conference games are even harder. So it's an opportunity to,
• 48:11
  Speaker 6: to get a home underdog at a nice price. And
• 48:13
  Speaker 6: especially at this point in the year, maybe you see
• 48:16
  Speaker 6: some fraudulently ranked teams. It shouldn't be ranked as high
• 48:19
  Speaker 6: as they are. And they, and they're in an upset spot, but,
• 48:22
  Speaker 6: but this week is a, It's hard for me to, like,
• 48:28
  Speaker 6: TCU is bad with that quarterback and the issues.
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: You talk about toxic locker rooms. Like, that's bad, bad.
• 48:37
  Speaker 6: How the hell did TCU play for the national championship.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: Four years ago?
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: Like, it is amazing to think that they were in
• 48:44
  Speaker 6: that position and now where they are. That's another job
• 48:47
  Speaker 6: that could open up. this year, but BYU at TCU
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: is kind of interesting. BYU on the road, even though
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: I think BYU is a lot better. I do think
• 48:56
  Speaker 6: South Carolina is going to be Kentucky this week.
• 48:59
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: So I was going to say we have, we have
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: their favorite. Yeah. We have Notre Dame, Notre Dame at
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: USC or UNC Notre Dame. Say right. 21 and a half.
• 49:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think I should take care of it.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: Miami favorite at Clemson again, 17 and a half.
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: Love it.
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: Indiana, 23 and a half at Rutgers. I don't know
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: if I'd take Indiana to cover. I'm not sure Indiana's good.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: They were there to be had last week.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: How do we define.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Good, though?
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: Rachel, my daughter, who's in the Zoom. Thank you.
• 49:27
  Speaker 4: Yes. shadow northwestern opening their new stadium friday guys.
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: And i love.
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: It 800 million dollars in the stadium and still gave
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: the visitor shitty locker rooms that's good that's how college
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: football is supposed to.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: Be so so one second both you guys are convinced
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: that notre dame will steamroll north carolina yeah.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: I don't think steamroll okay wow closer huh.
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: The only thing i'm worried about is notre dame hasn't
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: run the ball great right.
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: Then that notre dame defense is why they're gonna be
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: good like cj carr will round in a form probably
• 49:56
  Speaker 4: be really good but The Notre Dame defense is like
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: NFL guys, multiple at every single level of the defense.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: Bear, if North Carolina is undefeated, is college game day
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: going to North Carolina this weekend?
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: Well, it's going to be. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Yes. I
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: was going to say, well, they can't be undefeated because
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: they already lost the game. But, oh, God, yeah.
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: If.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: Oh, God. Heartbeat.
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: Is there going to be a bigger looks disparity between
• 50:25
  Speaker 4: the two head coaches than what you're going to have
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: in Marcus Freeman versus Bill Buster Chase?
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Buttoned up and then hoodie, frumpy man boobs, just everything.
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: He just gave me and Mikey a reason to watch
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: the game.
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to lie. I'm still thinking about Bill's boobs. God,
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: things just look succulent. All right, sorry. Beautiful man. Miami
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: at Clemson. Again, like you said, I don't think there's
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: much there. Indiana Rutgers. I would take Rutgers to cover.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: There's no way Greg Chiano's beating Indiana. No.
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: The big number, they got Nebraska on the road next week,
• 51:02
  Speaker 6: so maybe there's a little bit of a just kind
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: of sleepwalk. They got a bunch of injuries still. Now
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: they're down another running back, so maybe it's closer.
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: Texas Tech and Colorado. Colorado, after a week one, like,
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: Good job guys. They're kicking off people off the team.
• 51:20
  Speaker 4: Juju Lewis isn't the starting quarterback anymore. It's a disaster
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: for the buffs. Texas tech has not looked good, but
• 51:28
  Speaker 4: they should, I mean, they should, they should.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Take care of business.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: They should.
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 51:32
  Speaker 6: And actually Colorado has taken some money. I saw this
• 51:35
  Speaker 6: lines out to like 11 and a half and a
• 51:37
  Speaker 6: bunch of spots. Like who the hell is betting on Colorado?
• 51:41
  Speaker 6: Like they, they can't score.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: They're terrible. You mentioned BYU at TCU. That's probably the
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: upset to choose here.
• 51:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Because as you said, Kentucky is ranked there at
• 51:50
  Speaker 4: South Carolina, but Kentucky, three and a half point dogs.
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they are.
• 51:54
  Speaker 6: And it might be a situation, Shane, with suspending Dylan Stewart,
• 51:58
  Speaker 6: maybe the locker room, maybe he's got them right for
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: one week, kind of circle the wagons type game, and they...
• 52:07
  Speaker 6: and they win the toss-up game there as a favorite.
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: Bear, allow me to chime in here because I just
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: want to give the audience what I know they want,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: and I want to give me.
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: And Mikey A what we want.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: I just want your– I want very clearly, okay, with
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: no interruption, and I apologize to you, T-Bob, and I
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: love you, but we all.
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: Need this, okay?
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: Mikey has his pen in hand. He has a piece
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: of paper. He is ready to write them down. I
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: just want the medal stand of college football picks for
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: the weekend here, okay?
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: Bronze, silver, gold. What is Bear going with?
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: I have– Two bets locked in. So we're only going
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: to go two. Well, actually, I'll give you three because
• 52:42
  Speaker 6: I'll give you a win total.
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to force it, Bear. I do
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: not want you to force it. I want you to
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: just give us whatever you like. If it's two, it's two.
• 52:50
  Speaker 6: I would bet TCU's season win total under right now
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: because I don't know how they're getting to six wins.
• 52:57
  Speaker 6: You can put that on the bronze medal stand. On
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: the silver position on the podium, I would take Temple
• 53:05
  Speaker 6: plus the points. against South Florida. South Florida is like
• 53:10
  Speaker 6: the most fraudulent 4-0 team in the country. They beat
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: FIU 19-9, a.
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: Miracle win at Army.
• 53:18
  Speaker 6: They beat Delaware State, FCS, MEAC team, and then trailed
• 53:23
  Speaker 6: for most of the game against a terrible, well, Bowling
• 53:26
  Speaker 6: Green might be like the worst team in the country,
• 53:28
  Speaker 6: and they trailed for a good part of that game.
• 53:29
  Speaker 6: So they're 4-0. Casey Keeler is a really good coach.
• 53:34
  Speaker 6: At Temple, they gave a game away. This feels like
• 53:38
  Speaker 6: a good spot for Temple. And then gold medal play,
• 53:41
  Speaker 6: lay the 14 with Ohio State.
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: Say it again. Say it one more time.
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: Gold medal play? Yeah. Lay the 14 with Ohio State.
• 53:49
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: It was breathtaking watching you do that.
• 53:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, I've been telling all my friends all week, guys,
• 53:57
  Speaker 4: you've got to bet Temple this weekend.
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: South Florida is the worst Florida team in the country.
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: All right, guys, we love you. We'll see you next
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: time on the College Football Show. It's You Got Some Beer.
