  Speaker 1: So many people have reached out. I think the older
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: I got, the more emotional I became.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: I can't believe this.
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: But, yep, Coach Wade, you know, who's been out, been
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: like a father to us. Really, you know, just laid
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: it all on him, laid it all out. It turns
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: out where it all started, where I've come from. So, damn, I.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Thought I was going to do this. That is Muggsy Bogues.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Yesterday, the Panthers put on a press conference for Muggsy
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: to discuss the announcement this week, Bone, that his number.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Will be retired.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: And he got emotional when asked about his Dunbar folks.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Dunbar High School in Baltimore was an absolute basketball juggernaut.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Great 30 for 30 on them a number of years ago.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: They were so good.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: NBA talent, great college basketball talent.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Reggie Williams from Georgetown, he was part of that, right? Yeah,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: he mentioned him. He shouted him out yesterday.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: But he got emotional when I asked about have those
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: guys contacted him. He talked about Coach Bob Wade, who
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: was a legend there. And, man, it got tearful. It's
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: funny because I was bouncing through the presser on YouTube
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: trying to find that clip because I knew it happened.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, let me find the emotional clip.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: And as I bounce through, I notice at the end
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: there's a box of Kleenexes sitting there on the table.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, what? That wasn't there at the beginning.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: So I was able to go be like, okay, when
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: did the Kleenexes show up? And right before that was,
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: that was where he got emotional. Muggsy, good for you, man.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: And they don't just love you in Baltimore, brother. They
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: love you here in Charlotte, North Carolina. It is, it
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: has been your home for years, your second home. And man,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: he deserves every bit of the adulation he's going to
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: get bone on that night.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Cosign. Absolutely. No doubt about it. Big time, big time.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: So let's get to the games bone that we will
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: watch this weekend, that there will not be a Panther
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: player on the field during.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Can we extend this segment out a couple segments today?
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: You just want to do this all day? Just talk
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: about the other games? It's not a bad idea.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: God, we need a Panther-free weekend, and we need to
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: watch other sports. Although there's no guarantee, y'all, that the
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: rest of y'all's teams are going to cheer you up.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: There's no guarantee.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: But let's talk about what to watch when. So we
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: mentioned this at the start of the show. We got
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: a Friday night with a couple of Charlotte teams playing.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: You've got the Charlotte 49ers hosting Tulane. If you're not
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: going to the game tonight, that game is on ESPN2
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: at 7 o'clock. Hornets, Wizards, WSOC TV tonight at 7 o'clock.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Of course, WFNZ if you need to listen to it.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: And then you also have Bone. The Hornets on Saturday night.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: I guess I'll throw this one in a little early. Back-to-back,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: they will return home to take on the Sixers. A
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: little Halloween night game tomorrow night on.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: TV64 at 6. Charlotte FC, 1 p.m. tomorrow. I just
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: wanted to throw that in there. It's early, yeah. Of
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: the non-football games. It's an early one tomorrow.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Now, the college football slate tomorrow at noon. You've got
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: a couple of local teams involved. What will NC State
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: do in their first game post-Dave Doran? They're hosting Cal
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: at noon on the ACC Network. Boston College, the suddenly
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: hot Boston College Eagles.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Boston College and Stanford are starting to put wins together.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: They are. BC ran for 399 against Georgia Tech, and
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Duke's only favored by seven. Tougher matchup, I think, than
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: you would imagine that to be. I think that's going
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: to be a close game. Duke's hosting them noon. It's
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: the Wes Bryant special bone on the CW tomorrow at noon.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Arizona-Texas Tech is a pretty interesting game. Two ranked teams nationally.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Texas Tech trying to bounce back. Arizona trying to stay hot.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: That's noon on ESPN. Auburn Ole Miss... An interesting one,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: can Auburn go to Ole Miss and give them fits
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: like they did Georgia? That's 12-45 on the SEC Network,
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: although Ole Miss is in a bounce-back situation, right?
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Yes. Ole Miss probably going to kick their hindies. More
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: on that later when I do my picks with Picante. Okay, okay.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: A little teaser Rudy there for you.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: A little Notre Dame Navy, ABC at noon, a little Wisconsin, Iowa, 13-10er,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: noon on Fox.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Don't watch that while drowsy.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Okay, so the afternoon games, Temple is at ECU 3 o'clock.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: on ESPN +. Then you get to the three. Everything's
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: kind of staggered in this window. 3.30, you've got Florida,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Georgia on ABC. You've got Minnesota and Indiana on CBS.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: And then you get to a couple of games that
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: are shortly after 3.30 of local interest. Virginia at Wake,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: that's ESPN2 at 3.45. And then your Gamecocks bone trying
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: to stay hot. At Oklahoma, 415 SEC Network. I think
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: they will stay hot.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: You're feeling good.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: You're feeling frisky about that one.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: I actually feel more confident right now in South Carolina.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: I'm a little concerned about that Duke matchup there, to
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: be honest with you there. Also, Mackers, Florida, Georgia. I
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: have no idea what direction to think about that game
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: because it's not at the normal Jacksonville site this year.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: It's in Atlanta because of construction or whatever's going on
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: down there. Georgia's favored by 11.5 or 12, but we
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: have no clue what Florida may show up. The team
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: that got absolutely trounced by Missouri and South Carolina or
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: the team that beats Texas and beats Ole Miss, I
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: have absolutely no idea what Florida team may show up tomorrow.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: I could see them pulling off an upset or getting
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: run off the field. They are so hard to predict
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: what's going to happen. I think Georgia shows back up
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: after they've been off for a while. But in terms
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: of Florida, I got no clue tomorrow. I would be
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: utterly shocked if Georgia doesn't win the game. Now, does
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Florida push them? Yeah, that's the question you're asking, I think.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure Kirby Smart has screamed at them for
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: two weeks straight since the Auburn loss.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: They had a bye last week.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: I would be utterly shocked if Georgia doesn't play with
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: a purpose tomorrow. All right, so the night games, 6.30,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: app at Georgia Southern, ESPN +.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Georgia Southern favored by five and a half tomorrow. Damn.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: They're the best defense in the Sun Belt right now.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: People are thinking that there's going to be a letdown
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: after the JMU win. Okay. I was looking all over
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: at for that game, so I did some research on
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: it there just to see what's going on with the spread.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: That is interesting. That is a juicy, juicy thought of
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: going at plus the 5.5 there. No love lost in
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: that one, man.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Then you get to 7 o'clock, Clemson at Florida State,
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: ACC Network. Miami, number one in the country at UNC,
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: the big ABC 730 game. And I'll also throw in
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: Ohio State, Boney, at USC, the NBC game. We get
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: to first look at the backup QB, whose name I
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: have forgotten. who will get his first start in this game. Yeah.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: I would expect him to look better.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Bone, than he did when they yanked the clipboard out
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: of his hands and he had to go in for
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: saying who got hurt.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I would expect him to look better, but we'll see.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: We'll see. At least he gets the USC defense to
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: go against. Luke Fahey is the quarterback. There you go.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Also feels like USC is... going to start to trend down,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: and Lincoln Riley's time might be coming to an end
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: there at Southern Cal. Feels like they're at that point
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: in the season where Southern Cal starts to disappoint. We'll see.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: I can honestly say there are a lot of predictions
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: I get wrong.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I didn't buy one damn.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: Bit of USC hype this season, especially as they were
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: struggling to beat my sorry Penn State Nittany Lions.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Matt, the UNC Miami game, I've seen a lot of split.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of split people on that in
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: terms of the spread, because Miami's favored by 15 there.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I've seen some people just automatically say, blow out Miami,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: they cover. Other people are saying, hold on, is this
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: a Notre Dame situation where the heels can at least...
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: maybe cover that spread and kind of hang in there
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: like they did against the Irish. I'll tell you this.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of differing opinions on this one.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: The Irish are not as explosive as Miami. Not close.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: I just like, if the Heels don't find a way
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: bone to force turnovers or force Miami to kick field goals,
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: the Heels ain't, if Miami gets to scoring, the Heels
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: ain't playing that.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Kind of game. Yeah, that's true.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? So this one, the Heels
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: got it. Hopefully they can make this thing ugly. I'm
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: not sure they can. I just don't think they have
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: the offense to stay close even in a shootout.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: They've done very well against Miami in the last decade
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: or so. What, six in a row, Finney? Is that
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: what it is? Somebody is. We got Heels bone, baby. No,
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying that those would be the reasons for hope, right,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Fit Dog? Yeah, but that was a different version of Miami. Oh, boy.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Did you go all right back there, Finn? No.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: Nobody is. Bone's trying so badly to sell heels. God
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: forbid I try to lift the spirits of my neighbors.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: You're always looking out for heels, Finn.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: I've never seen Finney. Did you go Belichick on me there?
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: It's different. Different team. Different time. I mean, if Carolina covers,
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: I'm counting that as a win. I think that's a
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: fair way to look at it. I think this has
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: blowout written all over it. God forbid I try to
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: help people out around here.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, we celebrated Wake for only losing by 13
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: to Miami. and Wake's a legit ranked team. We think
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: Carolina can keep it as close as Wake did?
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not. I would probably say no, but
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: I'm just telling you that there are some people out
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: there that think that UNC can cover... are you okay
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: i told you i got a throat tickle oh.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: My god all right anyway i do want to mention
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: the nascar race chance i'm having a heart attack uh
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: we get to watch nfl sunday without the panthers um
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: we also get uh the cup series race at martinsville
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: second to last race to the season just want to
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: leave this here kyle larson has a chance to wrap
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: things up before they even get to Homestead for the
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: final race of the season. I would love that, and
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: I would say, Smoke Ludwig, screw him. Thank you for
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: your new playoff system, Smoke Ludwig. We have wrapped it
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: up before the final race of the season, but I'm
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: not sure that's going to happen, and I probably shouldn't
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: talk too much about it.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: Mackie does championships.
