Latest / Mac & Bone Podcast / Mac & Bone Hour 2: AP Poll Reactions & Panthers Biggest Weakness
Transcript
- 0:17Speaker 1: If clembs into the twenty sixth best team in the country,
- 0:19Speaker 1: they lose Week one, that game in week four is
- 0:23Speaker 1: no joke. Going to col they lose in week five,
- 0:27Speaker 1: Virginia Tech could push him in week seven. And if
- 0:30Speaker 1: you're the twenty sixth best team in the country in
- 0:33Speaker 1: this day and age, that means I can't.
- 0:34Speaker 2: Just assume anything.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Even when you go to Florida State, Syracuse, Georgia Tech
- 0:39Speaker 1: duke South Carolina end of the year, it could be
- 0:41Speaker 1: four losses there or more for Clemson. But throw up
- 0:45Speaker 1: South Carolina for just a second. This is the one
- 0:47Speaker 1: where Rubber really meets Troube. So again, this is not
- 0:50Speaker 1: the way the real world works. I just want to
- 0:52Speaker 1: do this for the sake of argument. For a second,
- 0:55Speaker 1: the AP has South Carolina at number thirty two in
- 0:57Speaker 1: the preseason. Let's just say they're right. Say the season
- 1:00Speaker 1: plays out exactly as the AP voters release the preseason rankings.
- 1:04Speaker 1: If South Carolina is the thirty second best team in
- 1:06Speaker 1: the country, that means they play seven teams ranked higher
- 1:09Speaker 1: than them. And if every game just went the way
- 1:12Speaker 1: it's supposed to go on paper and they finished five
- 1:16Speaker 1: and seven, I think we all understand that's not good enough.
- 1:21Speaker 3: That's Josh Pate talking about Clemson and South Carolina both
- 1:26Speaker 3: missing the top twenty five, and it seems like he
- 1:31Speaker 3: might believe that might be about right. But the good
- 1:35Speaker 3: news Bone in the South Carolina example, is it doesn't
- 1:38Speaker 3: always go that way, right. It doesn't always go like, hey,
- 1:41Speaker 3: the higher ranked team is gonna win every game. But
- 1:44Speaker 3: there's no doubt South Carolina sketchle is still a bear.
- 1:48Speaker 3: Like it feels easier bone than in the past, but
- 1:51Speaker 3: my god, it's still a bear.
- 1:52Speaker 4: Well, they're going to be ranked, I think relatively soon,
- 1:54Speaker 4: because I think they're going to stack up the wins
- 1:57Speaker 4: to get ranked early. Then it gets tough as it
- 2:00Speaker 4: goes along. But this year, I think they're gonna play
- 2:03Speaker 4: themselves into a ranking just off of easier slay to
- 2:06Speaker 4: begin with. Some teams will drop out, so I think
- 2:09Speaker 4: the game cause will find themselves ranked with probably within
- 2:12Speaker 4: two or three weeks of the regular season. Not saying
- 2:14Speaker 4: they're playing great teams off the start, but I just
- 2:17Speaker 4: think that they're gonna stack up enough wins to be
- 2:19Speaker 4: ranked in the top twenty five.
- 2:20Speaker 3: And then what happens when they start playing the Barrage
- 2:23Speaker 3: of those seven teams that Josh pay talked about are
- 2:26Speaker 3: all got more votes than them. It's tough, you know, doubt,
- 2:29Speaker 3: but you're right. There is a chance to get some
- 2:32Speaker 3: confidence and some momentum back for the program, right I
- 2:36Speaker 3: really think there is a chance to do that.
- 2:37Speaker 4: Because I think I see, I know we're gonna do
- 2:39Speaker 4: this right now, but I'm seeing I'm seeing that number
- 2:42Speaker 4: twenty five team right there. I'm thinking that there's teams
- 2:45Speaker 4: within their own conference of Missouri that probably are more
- 2:49Speaker 4: deserving of that spot than the Missouri Tigers.
- 2:51Speaker 3: You're gonna call out, but somebody yo. All right, anyway,
- 2:55Speaker 3: that is a macim with you. Let's talk about it.
- 3:02Speaker 3: We got what the bleep story is coming up. We
- 3:04Speaker 3: got panther O line talk coming up on this show
- 3:06Speaker 3: this hour. But let's talk about the top twenty five,
- 3:10Speaker 3: and then let's talk about kind of where the local
- 3:12Speaker 3: teams are settled in. Unfortunately, just outside the ap top
- 3:17Speaker 3: twenty five. I'll just run through this quick hero Ohio
- 3:20Speaker 3: state is number one, Oregon two, Georgia three, Notre Dame four,
- 3:24Speaker 3: Texas five. The next five is Indiana, Miami, Texas A,
- 3:29Speaker 3: and m OL miss Oklahoma. That's through ten. Eleven through
- 3:33Speaker 3: fifteen is LSU, Texas Tech, Alabama BYU and Southern Cali
- 3:37Speaker 3: actually are tied for fourteenth. Then you go to sixteen Michigan, Washington,
- 3:42Speaker 3: Penn State, SMU nineteenth as the second highest ranked ACC team,
- 3:47Speaker 3: Tennessee in the twenty spot, and then the final five Utah, Iowa, Houston, Louisville.
- 3:55Speaker 3: First time since Lamar Jackson was there that they have
- 3:58Speaker 3: been ranked in the top twenty. And then Bone is
- 4:02Speaker 3: already called out missoo they are at twenty five. If
- 4:05Speaker 3: you did the whole like others receiving votes thing BONE
- 4:08Speaker 3: and attributed like where they would rank based on the
- 4:11Speaker 3: amount of votes you get. Clemson, we've talked about a bunch,
- 4:14Speaker 3: would be twenty six. They were literally the team just
- 4:17Speaker 3: on the outside of the ap top twenty five. South
- 4:21Speaker 3: Carolina would be thirty second. NC State did not receive
- 4:25Speaker 3: one vote. There are forty nine teams BONE that received
- 4:30Speaker 3: the vote and NC State didn't receive one. So allow
- 4:34Speaker 3: me to start their Bone when it talked when we
- 4:36Speaker 3: talk about local teams being rated too low, they literally
- 4:41Speaker 3: didn't get a single, little minuscule vote. I'm not saying
- 4:47Speaker 3: this team, Bone is going to break through to ten win,
- 4:50Speaker 3: but I'm telling you eight or nine wins with that schedule. CJ.
- 4:53Speaker 3: Bailey with a defense that I expect to get after
- 4:57Speaker 3: the passer better than they did last year. Can they be?
- 5:00Speaker 3: I mean Bone, they're basically saying they're ranked fiftieth or lower.
- 5:04Speaker 4: Yeah, that's kind of crazy when you look at the
- 5:06Speaker 4: other receiving vote teams from the ACC. Pittsburgh got seven,
- 5:10Speaker 4: Virginia Tech six, Georgia Tech four, Cal got two, and
- 5:15Speaker 4: their Week zero opponent, Virginia got one. I would say that, uh,
- 5:19Speaker 4: Virginia probably might need a few more than that also,
- 5:22Speaker 4: but Pittsburgh getting seven, col getting two, Georgia Tech four
- 5:27Speaker 4: definitely NC State deserves I think more votes than those teams.
- 5:31Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's just again, I know, I know what
- 5:33Speaker 3: everybody's gonna say. I know what Fitty's gonna do over there,
- 5:35Speaker 3: roll his eyes, what it again? But I'm just saying,
- 5:39Speaker 3: can you put them somewhere before like fiftieth? Yeah, I
- 5:43Speaker 3: agree with It's crazy to me man with a quarterback
- 5:46Speaker 3: coming back three years in the system.
- 5:48Speaker 4: Now, he said, We've had many discussions and this isn't
- 5:52Speaker 4: for argument's sake. Here, we've talked about comparing the game
- 5:55Speaker 4: Cocks at NC State this year. I would think that
- 5:58Speaker 4: NC State would be somewhere kind of at least close,
- 6:01Speaker 4: somewhere in that neighborhood, at least closer.
- 6:03Speaker 3: I agree with that. And this dude said Mack was
- 6:04Speaker 3: gonna freak out on behalf of NC State regardless. I mean,
- 6:08Speaker 3: not if they were like thirty ninth or something like that,
- 6:10Speaker 3: but not even one of the forty nine receiving votes
- 6:14Speaker 3: Georgia Tech. I don't maybe brank KEEI make me look
- 6:17Speaker 3: like a buffoon, but Georgia Tech feels like it is
- 6:20Speaker 3: going to be a little bit of a stop of
- 6:23Speaker 3: a step back. Like do we know if al Berto
- 6:26Speaker 3: Mendoza can play quarterback? We know his brother Ken, but
- 6:29Speaker 3: do we know he can. I know they got two
- 6:31Speaker 3: great running backs there, but like I just I look
- 6:34Speaker 3: at that King was special.
- 6:37Speaker 4: With the high usage rate. If you use a basketball term,
- 6:39Speaker 4: you got to replace that guy special.
- 6:41Speaker 3: I think I think anybody to voted Georgia Tech with
- 6:43Speaker 3: a top twenty five vote is underestimate how special the
- 6:45Speaker 3: ACC Player of the Year is and the Panthers darling
- 6:49Speaker 3: of the preseason, who by the way will not play
- 6:51Speaker 3: this week. Bon't hains King, It sucks Mack.
- 6:53Speaker 4: Can I say make a comment about Louisville being twenty
- 6:56Speaker 4: four in the ACC? Yeah, they played the only Week
- 6:59Speaker 4: one game of opponents, that game in Nashville against Old Miss.
- 7:03Speaker 4: So while there are some exciting games for US, it's
- 7:06Speaker 4: not a loaded up national slate in terms of ranked
- 7:10Speaker 4: matchups that Louisville does have the opener on that Sunday
- 7:14Speaker 4: night against number nine Ole Miss. I love a game,
- 7:17Speaker 4: a game that's kind of not been talked about a
- 7:20Speaker 4: whole lot that might be an unbelievable football game.
- 7:22Speaker 3: I love Louisville's schedule bone out. I mean, obviously that
- 7:26Speaker 3: one's tough. But in the ACC, they do play SMU,
- 7:29Speaker 3: but they get them at home. They don't have to
- 7:31Speaker 3: play Miami, they don't play Clemson like I think there's
- 7:35Speaker 3: a real opportunity if the if the Ohio State transfer
- 7:39Speaker 3: Keyholes can play QB. But I'm guessing brom can get
- 7:42Speaker 3: them to play QB. They got two great running backs.
- 7:44Speaker 3: I agree.
- 7:45Speaker 4: Speaking of schedules, Mac, I do believe that at number
- 7:49Speaker 4: nineteen SMU, while it may not be disrespectful now, I
- 7:54Speaker 4: think as the season goes along, they move up to
- 7:57Speaker 4: be a playoff team again. Love their schedule at Florida
- 8:02Speaker 4: State week one, but then it's UC David, it's at.
- 8:05Speaker 3: Louisville week three.
- 8:06Speaker 4: You gotta go to matt If it's not Louisville beating
- 8:08Speaker 4: them in week three.
- 8:10Speaker 3: They don't play Miami or Clemson. Where is that.
- 8:11Speaker 4: First loss coming from? It could be all the way
- 8:14Speaker 4: to Notre Dame was second the last game of the season.
- 8:17Speaker 4: SMU's got a very doable slate. Even if they lose
- 8:20Speaker 4: to Louisville in Notre Dame, they're gonna have a great year.
- 8:22Speaker 4: Their schedule is great for them. I think SMU is
- 8:26Speaker 4: better than nineteen. They both got good acc schedules. They
- 8:29Speaker 4: both don't play Miami or Clemson. SMU doesn't even play State.
- 8:34Speaker 4: I mean, look at that schedule. You're right about that.
- 8:36Speaker 4: After Louisville for SMU, Missouri State at home, VC home,
- 8:41Speaker 4: Virginia home CAL home. Then they go on the road
- 8:44Speaker 4: for Virginia Tech. Then it's Virginia Tech in wake matt
- 8:47Speaker 4: They go on the road one time from September twenty six,
- 8:52Speaker 4: all the way to Notre Dame November twenty first ohout
- 8:56Speaker 4: that that is something, man, there's opportunities that is that
- 8:58Speaker 4: is that is right for staf. Here's the thing though,
- 9:01Speaker 4: SMU and Louisville there could be a lot of wins
- 9:03Speaker 4: in the ACC based on their schedules, But will it
- 9:06Speaker 4: be enough to convince the committee they deserve to be
- 9:08Speaker 4: in the playoff over.
- 9:10Speaker 3: Like a four loss SEC team. Yeah, those are the
- 9:12Speaker 3: type of things at least three loss Those are the
- 9:15Speaker 3: type of things we're gonna be debating.
- 9:16Speaker 2: You were gonna have the.
- 9:17Speaker 3: Feeling pony Boney's bags, Tony bony, pone bonee, pone bone No,
- 9:27Speaker 3: shout out to the old high baby. That's that's kind
- 9:30Speaker 3: of a jam. Seven.
- 9:31Speaker 4: Oh, I'm just towing the team that I think is
- 9:33Speaker 4: gonna that that schedule there, I just told you they're
- 9:35Speaker 4: not going on the road a whole bunch off they
- 9:37Speaker 4: beat Louisville, they're gonna go on a run.
- 9:39Speaker 3: Seven O four five five, seven oh nine six times.
- 9:43Speaker 3: They better improve that past defense. It was atrocious last year.
- 9:46Speaker 3: But they do have Jennings back, who is a Conference
- 9:48Speaker 3: Player of the Year candidate. All right, so real quick,
- 9:52Speaker 3: before we get into the top twenty five, if y'all
- 9:54Speaker 3: have any comments about any of his top twenty five
- 9:57Speaker 3: college football stuff. We're yapping about strong opinions. Bring them
- 10:00Speaker 3: in here. We want to get you all involved in
- 10:02Speaker 3: the discourse. Seven oh four, five, seven oh nine, six
- 10:05Speaker 3: ten before we get into the rankings. Let's stay in
- 10:07Speaker 3: the Carolinas on the outside looking in. Quincy the voyeurs.
- 10:11Speaker 3: We're the voyeurs outside looking in the home of the
- 10:13Speaker 3: top twenty five. So we're the peeping tom gonference. Clemson
- 10:17Speaker 3: feels about right to me. Honestly. We got a Clemson
- 10:20Speaker 3: van texted in earlier and said, I think they're overrated
- 10:23Speaker 3: at number twenty six. That's tea time. Tea time, very
- 10:26Speaker 3: skeptical of his Tigers, I said earlier Bone anywhere in
- 10:31Speaker 3: that twenty five thirty area. To me, I think they
- 10:35Speaker 3: can be there. I do expect them to bounce back
- 10:37Speaker 3: and be better than last year. What do you think
- 10:39Speaker 3: about game Cocks? Like, are they get? Is thirty two
- 10:42Speaker 3: too low for them? They are behind a ton of SEC?
- 10:46Speaker 3: How many SEC teams are they behind? Bone?
- 10:49Speaker 4: They are because there's nine ranked and then Florida's ahead
- 10:52Speaker 4: of them, right, Florida's ahead of them. Yeah, that's the
- 10:58Speaker 4: only one in the votes to have as eleventh.
- 11:01Speaker 3: Yeah, in SEC teams in this point, how does that
- 11:04Speaker 3: hit you?
- 11:05Speaker 4: I've said, and I'll say it again. I think anywhere
- 11:08Speaker 4: from twenty on down. You can say that for a
- 11:10Speaker 4: number of teams. I think anywhere from twenty on down,
- 11:14Speaker 4: I can compare South Carolina to and say, you know what,
- 11:16Speaker 4: there's a path where they're better. I've said before, I
- 11:19Speaker 4: think they're better than Tennessee, Utah twenty one new coach.
- 11:22Speaker 4: We'll see if their program sustains what they've bet. Iowa
- 11:26Speaker 4: kind of sits in that spot a lot, so I'm
- 11:29Speaker 4: not saying they don't deserve it, but Iowa with Iowa Houston,
- 11:33Speaker 4: I think what we feel is going to be better
- 11:34Speaker 4: than twenty four. But Houston and Missouri at twenty three
- 11:38Speaker 4: and twenty five, we don't think South Carolina with that quarterback,
- 11:41Speaker 4: with Dylan Stewart, with all that's coming back, we don't
- 11:43Speaker 4: think that South Carolina can be better than Missouri, Houston, Utah,
- 11:47Speaker 4: and Tennessee.
- 11:48Speaker 3: I'll go up against any of those teams if Alick
- 11:50Speaker 3: at bone, I feel like Missouri is about to pay
- 11:52Speaker 3: the schedule piper. They have had some favorable schedules where
- 11:55Speaker 3: they've been able to win some games in the SEC.
- 11:58Speaker 3: I'm not sure with this year's schedule they're gonna have
- 12:02Speaker 3: the same amount of wins. Sorry to the p man
- 12:05Speaker 3: Tennessee too, I know you mentioned him in there. I
- 12:07Speaker 3: think Tennessee's overrated at number twenty. If we start, we're
- 12:10Speaker 3: gonna start calling out people for being overrated. I think
- 12:13Speaker 3: Tennessee like bo when they lost five games last year.
- 12:16Speaker 3: That was with Agualar. Their defense dropped off a cliff
- 12:19Speaker 3: last year, from sixteen points allowed to twenty eight points
- 12:21Speaker 3: per game allowed. They've lost their entire d line from
- 12:24Speaker 3: last year. The quarterbacks like listen, I'm rooting for the
- 12:28Speaker 3: kid Faizon from Greensboro, but it's like whoever they start,
- 12:31Speaker 3: whoever wins that battle is inexperienced. I could see another
- 12:34Speaker 3: five lost season for them. Yeah, you know, I'm not
- 12:37Speaker 3: sure they deserve to be a ranked team or will
- 12:39Speaker 3: prove to be a ranked tea.
- 12:41Speaker 4: Can I say something without you guys clowning me and
- 12:44Speaker 4: bringing up my pass?
- 12:45Speaker 5: Uh?
- 12:45Speaker 4: Oh, Florida, Florida deserves a ranking more than Tennessee, did
- 12:50Speaker 4: I think?
- 12:51Speaker 3: I think Florida, Florida more with summer all this year,
- 12:54Speaker 3: than I do. Tennessee. Dude, look at Florida's skilled players.
- 12:56Speaker 3: They could you can make a case Florda's got the
- 12:58Speaker 3: best skilled players in the country with those receivers, Dallas Wilson,
- 13:02Speaker 3: all those receivers and Jade Bolt running back. They got
- 13:04Speaker 3: a couple of future Sunday players on the d line back.
- 13:08Speaker 3: So I'm with you on that.
- 13:09Speaker 4: Now, I'm not. I'm not I'm not gonna look too
- 13:11Speaker 4: closely because then you guys are gonna say I'm I'm
- 13:13Speaker 4: peeping in.
- 13:14Speaker 3: Gator Bone, baby, fit fucking bom Gator Bone.
- 13:23Speaker 4: I literally just said, can I say something with U
- 13:27Speaker 4: clown shoes about it?
- 13:28Speaker 3: It's so much fun, fitty, isn't it to act like
- 13:30Speaker 3: any team? Bone says something nice about he's a fan up.
- 13:33Speaker 3: I don't know why. It's very immature of me, but
- 13:36Speaker 3: it's just enjoyable. Here you go, baby. Can we talk
- 13:39Speaker 3: about mister two bones? Baby?
- 13:41Speaker 4: Can we talk about back the team that A lot
- 13:44Speaker 4: of people I'm gonna sex you up for this because
- 13:46Speaker 4: I know your take on it.
- 13:47Speaker 3: You can turn that song down now. I don't even
- 13:49Speaker 3: know what it is. If.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Can we talk about the team Mac that a lot
- 13:52Speaker 4: of people want removed from the top ten. That would
- 13:56Speaker 4: be the Aggies of Texas A. And I have the
- 13:58Speaker 4: same one. I have the same one.
- 14:00Speaker 3: You talk about paying the schedule, Piper, they had such
- 14:03Speaker 3: a favorable schedule, believe it or not, and I'll vaunted
- 14:07Speaker 3: ADEC Gauntlet last year, and you look at their schedule
- 14:10Speaker 3: this year, bone you look at the fact they lost
- 14:12Speaker 3: ten players to the NFL. Marcel Reeds a little up
- 14:16Speaker 3: and down. Rsill Reid inconsistent, right, inconsistent as Heck, yeah,
- 14:21Speaker 3: I'm kind of feeling that one too. You know, later
- 14:23Speaker 3: we're gonna talk about the We're gonna talk about the
- 14:26Speaker 3: fact that in eighteen of the last nineteen years, at
- 14:30Speaker 3: least one team from the top ten has ended up unranked.
- 14:34Speaker 3: Last year was three, including Clemson, pen Clemson, Penn State, LSU.
- 14:39Speaker 3: But we're gonna talk about, like, who you think flops
- 14:43Speaker 3: from the top ten, y'all uh, because it happens every year.
- 14:47Speaker 3: It basically at least one flop Texas A and m
- 14:50Speaker 3: is a legit candidate for some floppage. There is no
- 14:54Speaker 3: doubt about it, Matt. Do you have any more underrated
- 14:57Speaker 3: overrateds here? Before we go to break I Indiana definitely underrated. Man,
- 15:02Speaker 3: you can underrate Signetti at your own Damn risk y'all
- 15:05Speaker 3: a number six.
- 15:06Speaker 4: I think Indiana and Miami Miami number seven? What's y'all
- 15:09Speaker 4: up to? I think there you could make. I mean,
- 15:12Speaker 4: I think Notre Dame's gonna be very good. If you
- 15:14Speaker 4: wanted to say four, I think the man up higher
- 15:16Speaker 4: than that. But Indiana Miami definitely six and seven is
- 15:20Speaker 4: too well for them.
- 15:21Speaker 3: There you go, Fitty's doing the hand gesture over there.
- 15:23Speaker 3: Fitty has well behaved today. Bone I also behaved. I
- 15:26Speaker 3: wanted him to make fun of you. He did play
- 15:28Speaker 3: the song. He did play the song.
- 15:29Speaker 4: I also wonder if Michigan might be better than people
- 15:32Speaker 4: anticipate under Whittingham.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Year number one.
- 15:34Speaker 3: Just curious about that. Mark Winningham's a hell of a coach.
- 15:37Speaker 3: There's no denying that. He doesn't seem to care much
- 15:38Speaker 3: about the Ohio state rival, right Bryce hell of a pace.
- 15:41Speaker 3: Underwood was very hyped up last year. Much like Sellers.
- 15:44Speaker 3: You don't hear as much hype for him. But I
- 15:46Speaker 3: wonder if Bryce Underwood starts on what the park the
- 15:48Speaker 3: chair Underwood could go. That could go either way.
- 15:50Speaker 2: To me.
- 15:50Speaker 3: He's got so much natural ability with such a hyped
- 15:53Speaker 3: up recruit. He can run like crazy. But I have
- 15:56Speaker 3: seen pass his bone land in different states. You know
- 16:00Speaker 3: what I mean? When it comes to accuracy and consistency
- 16:03Speaker 3: throwing the ball, that is what I would question him for.
- 16:06Speaker 4: My current quarterback at college football twenty seven. Okay, so
- 16:09Speaker 4: you're kind of partial to I got hired. I got
- 16:11Speaker 4: hired by Michigan. So now I'm gonna hear I thought
- 16:13Speaker 4: you're at South Carolina. I got hired by Michigan after
- 16:15Speaker 4: the playoffs. I went to Michigan.
- 16:17Speaker 3: Why did you leave the game cock? Sir? What happened?
- 16:19Speaker 3: I got offered a job and I left? Oh my god, Fitdy,
- 16:23Speaker 3: could you believe this? What kind of gamecock man is this?
- 16:26Speaker 6: In one segment, We've gone from pony bony to gator bone.
- 16:34Speaker 3: If you would look good in the amazing if you
- 16:36Speaker 3: got hired by Michigan in the video game, you're not
- 16:38Speaker 3: going to Michigan.
- 16:39Speaker 6: No, I never leave Carolina. So that's a true loyal
- 16:42Speaker 6: loyal bone. I'm loyal to the bone of the school.
- 16:46Speaker 3: Can't just keep coaching his favorite team in the video
- 16:49Speaker 3: game needs to job jump. It's a blue blood. I
- 16:52Speaker 3: would be offered me a job because I'm so good
- 16:55Speaker 3: South Carolina into a blue blood. You know what. That's right.
- 16:58Speaker 3: You weren't for the challenge. A lot of money and
- 17:02Speaker 3: I like money. It was a lot of fake money.
- 17:04Speaker 3: He couldn't turn down the fake money that he's getting.
- 17:07Speaker 3: I hope the buck guys run you out of the stadium. Bone.
- 17:10Speaker 4: By the way, I was a Michigan fan for a while.
- 17:12Speaker 4: I don't keep that in mind that five years to.
- 17:16Speaker 3: The victor's bony is a Michigan fan. I didn't really
- 17:22Speaker 3: have much there. I didn't really have good lyrics on
- 17:27Speaker 3: that one. When we come back, it's what the hell
- 17:29Speaker 3: are what the hell? What the hell?
- 17:31Speaker 2: What the hell?
- 17:32Speaker 4: When we come back, it's what the bleep? Stories in
- 17:34Speaker 4: sports and in life that make its say, what the bleep?
- 17:37Speaker 4: I'm gonna clean off this mess here.
- 17:38Speaker 2: During the break.
- 18:03Speaker 3: Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ Mac and Bow with
- 18:08Speaker 3: you the hell are we playing? Fitty says, it's Michigan's
- 18:14Speaker 3: fights on. But I thought their fight song was hailed
- 18:15Speaker 3: to the victors.
- 18:16Speaker 4: I have no idea. Is it like USC where their
- 18:19Speaker 4: fight song is different? But yet they're the war, the
- 18:23Speaker 4: war chant. That's different. I guess I don't know the
- 18:25Speaker 4: fight on. I love that, man, I love that thing.
- 18:30Speaker 4: Could you tell I'm a bit excited for college football.
- 18:33Speaker 4: I have hummed about six fights on. You're ready to go?

- 18:47Speaker 4: or at least until missus Mack tells me to get off.
- 18:49Speaker 4: I'll have multiple DoorDash drivers going at once. Who can
- 18:52Speaker 4: get there first, Who's got the fries? Who's got the burger?
- 18:55Speaker 2: God?
- 18:55Speaker 3: I love it, man, great great text for everybody out
- 18:58Speaker 3: there too, about college football. As football fat is the best.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Michigan Sean says that it's not the fight song, l
- 19:04Speaker 3: O L. It takes a minute to get to that
- 19:07Speaker 3: part of the song.
- 19:07Speaker 6: Everyone knows if it takes it's a two minute song.
- 19:10Speaker 6: If it takes a.
- 19:11Speaker 3: Minute to get to a fight song, it's not gonna
- 19:12Speaker 3: be So you were, Michigan fity, how are you not
- 19:17Speaker 3: appropriately q uphild the victors? Stand up for your fight song.
- 19:21Speaker 3: Give a minute or two. We'll get to the crescendo.
- 19:23Speaker 3: If you think you do a better job, let's trade spots.
- 19:26Speaker 3: The problem is I'm better at this too, man, I
- 19:28Speaker 3: can't do two jobs. I don't think you know what
- 19:30Speaker 3: I mean. So we got to give something at one
- 19:32Speaker 3: of these spots. I'm kidding. I'm kidding, fit Daddy. All right, anyway,
- 19:38Speaker 3: let's refocus here. Baby. We went the bleep Fitty as well.
- 19:43Speaker 3: But this dude said, Fitty a fake Michigan fan. Did you?
- 19:47Speaker 3: I think you dropped your Michigan stuff though, didn't you. Yeah,
- 19:49Speaker 3: when Hardboss Khaki's left, imagine somebody or that's no ties
- 19:54Speaker 3: to Michigan roots for them because of that bum, that
- 19:56Speaker 3: arrogant piece of crap. Ah. Anyway, all right, here's this
- 20:02Speaker 3: Chelsea to beat Pinn States ass I am, I am jealous.
- 20:05Speaker 3: I'm angry that time that they ran a ballic seventy
- 20:08Speaker 3: eight times on us for seven hundred yards. All right, anyway,
- 20:11Speaker 3: let's focus here, all right, I'm not being professional Fitty.
- 20:13Speaker 3: Let's focus this. This segment is usually the epitome of professionalism.
- 20:18Speaker 3: It's time bony for what the bleep mac stories and
- 20:21Speaker 3: things that make us say, what the bleep what you got?
- 20:24Speaker 4: We're gonna go across the pond, Mac to a farm
- 20:27Speaker 4: in the UK. This is the Gravely Fruit Farm in Hitchin,
- 20:32Speaker 4: which opened in nineteen eighty one and features berry picking
- 20:35Speaker 4: a playground. In other family friendly pursuits, Why is this
- 20:41Speaker 4: farm under fire?
- 20:42Speaker 3: Mac?
- 20:42Speaker 4: Well, this family theme park has put up a Titanic
- 20:46Speaker 4: ride for children, and people are saying it's the tasteful
- 20:50Speaker 4: I've seen the ride.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Mac. You get in it and.
- 20:52Speaker 4: It slowly goes up in the air and then downward
- 20:55Speaker 4: like the Titanic going underneath the water. And this guy
- 20:59Speaker 4: says he will not I get rid of the ride
- 21:01Speaker 4: because he won't give in to the wop frigate.
- 21:04Speaker 3: He said to woke woke mob wants to change my
- 21:06Speaker 3: Titanic death themed ride. Mommy, let me ride the Titanic.
- 21:11Speaker 3: I want to simulate my death on a boat, Mommy.
- 21:14Speaker 3: Oh man, I don't know. I'm sure the ship is harmless,
- 21:17Speaker 3: Like I'm sure the ride's harmless, right, But it is
- 21:20Speaker 3: a funny theme here, kiddies. Let's let's pretend we're on
- 21:23Speaker 3: this ship where he would die. It is kind of
- 21:27Speaker 3: a funny theme for an amusement party.
- 21:29Speaker 4: Dad, what's that over there? Walsaw and that's the challenger.
- 21:31Speaker 4: Go get on that there.
- 21:33Speaker 3: What the bleep are What the bleep are we doing
- 21:37Speaker 3: y'all with these ride themes man? All right, I've got
- 21:41Speaker 3: to what I've got to? What the bleep?
- 21:43Speaker 2: Bone?
- 21:43Speaker 3: But also got to shout out this fisherman that was
- 21:48Speaker 3: near the Philippines. Yes are Cerventes.
- 21:51Speaker 5: Uh.
- 21:51Speaker 3: There's video of this too, which I need to google.
- 21:54Speaker 3: I need to find this. This poor guy Bone was
- 21:57Speaker 3: fishing near the Philippines last month. He reeled in by mistake,
- 22:02Speaker 3: he reeled in an octopus and this octopus Bone. Have
- 22:08Speaker 3: you seen this? This dang eight Look what it's called.
- 22:12Speaker 3: The article that the octopus latched onto the fisherman's face
- 22:16Speaker 3: with an eight armed death grip. The article, sen Bo.
- 22:20Speaker 3: There's video of this thing sticking to his face and
- 22:23Speaker 3: he has to try to get this thing off. He's
- 22:25Speaker 3: trying to pull it off. It won't come off his face.
- 22:28Speaker 3: So then Bone he starts clubbing it with a cut
- 22:32Speaker 3: piece of bamboo, starts clubbing the thing, but also he's
- 22:35Speaker 3: clubbing his face and the thing falls off back into
- 22:39Speaker 3: the water. What the bleep is going on there? I
- 22:42Speaker 3: would be losing my first of all, I wouldn't be
- 22:44Speaker 3: out on a boat fishing as way too adventurous for me.
- 22:47Speaker 3: But if that did happen to me, I would be
- 22:49Speaker 3: losing my ever loving mind. Man.
- 22:52Speaker 4: Yeah, because you try to grab it by the arms
- 22:54Speaker 4: that it's got six more.
- 22:58Speaker 3: Just started hit the thing on his face.
- 23:00Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 23:01Speaker 4: That's why I largely stay out of the water when
- 23:04Speaker 4: I can. I don't need to get death gripp by
- 23:06Speaker 4: an octopus in the face.
- 23:07Speaker 3: It's just a That is just a horrible day, man,
- 23:11Speaker 3: a horrible day.
- 23:12Speaker 4: Mag we have between neighbors in Florida were a furious neighbor,
- 23:18Speaker 4: Troy the Calloh, thirty five years old, was arrested by
- 23:22Speaker 4: Lake County Sheriff's deputies after he got mad at his
- 23:25Speaker 4: neighbor because the.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Dog went to the bathroom in his yard.
- 23:29Speaker 4: He bare handed the waiste walked over to the neighbor's house,
- 23:33Speaker 4: walked in the door, and flung it at the head
- 23:36Speaker 4: of the neighbor. They then rawled outside and involved. Someone
- 23:41Speaker 4: got a child scooter upside the head. Also during this melee,
- 23:45Speaker 4: just another day to the neighborhood. Feces and scooters used
- 23:48Speaker 4: as weapons. Yeah, that's Florida. That's how it's about right.
- 23:52Speaker 3: Yeah, next thing, you know, they're gonna throw an octopus
- 23:54Speaker 3: in somebody's face. Oh my god, what to believe, Florida.
- 23:58Speaker 3: I feel like we asked this every We do this
- 24:00Speaker 3: every week. He says.
- 24:01Speaker 4: He threw the feces, but not the scooter. He doesn't
- 24:04Speaker 4: want that. He doesn't want that, he doesn't want that.
- 24:07Speaker 4: On the res what's it not? And only one of
- 24:08Speaker 4: those things was being thrown.
- 24:10Speaker 3: I also Bone had a poop related What the bleep? Really?
- 24:14Speaker 3: Did you see what Dion Dawkins let his dog do
- 24:16Speaker 3: last week? I did not. I just said dog do
- 24:19Speaker 3: and then it was dog do. But anyway, he allowed
- 24:22Speaker 3: his dog Bone to poop in the fieldhouse turf practice
- 24:27Speaker 3: field in Buffalo. He had to come back with a
- 24:31Speaker 3: baggy and do the thing where you pick it up
- 24:32Speaker 3: with a baggie or whatever. What the belief we do
- 24:35Speaker 3: in Dion, take that dog outside, bro, we got an
- 24:37Speaker 3: indoor practice field, and you got a dog pooping on
- 24:40Speaker 3: the dang thing. And then the panda did the same thing.
- 24:42Speaker 3: A buffore also wanted to bleep. What the bleef Buffalo's field?
- 24:47Speaker 3: Did you hear what the players were saying afterwards?
- 24:49Speaker 4: Yeah, they were comparing the body parks. They was kidding shredded.
- 24:53Speaker 3: They said that grass is yeah and it rhymes with grass.
- 24:58Speaker 4: Oh man. Anyway, mag we're gonna go international again. Here
- 25:02Speaker 4: to Auckland, New Zealand, where a parking company has apologized
- 25:06Speaker 4: to a woman after she received a parking ticket for
- 25:09Speaker 4: staying too long in a supermarket car park on the
- 25:13Speaker 4: day she died and was brought back to life. She
- 25:17Speaker 4: collapsed in the store. She had to go to the hospital.
- 25:20Speaker 4: She got resuscitated later on. She's alive, got back to
- 25:24Speaker 4: her car and she had an eighty eight dollars ticket
- 25:26Speaker 4: on her car. After she died. It came back to the.
- 25:29Speaker 3: Long out you got. Hopefully they can wave that place.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Is there every way to wave that? It's now been waiting? Okay,
- 25:34Speaker 3: thank god. A woman thought they thought she was dead.
- 25:37Speaker 3: They literally brought her back from the dead. What to bleep?
- 25:40Speaker 3: All right, here's the story. Now this one bone. This
- 25:44Speaker 3: could lead to fascinating discussion, but I have to what
- 25:48Speaker 3: to bleep it? Anyway? It's just so crazy. A thirteen
- 25:53Speaker 3: year old boy in Arizona is facing a misdemeanor assault
- 25:56Speaker 3: charge after a dodgeball incident during a high school gym
- 26:01Speaker 3: class left another student with bruises. The student is his
- 26:05Speaker 3: ex girlfriend. He and two of his buddies are accused
- 26:09Speaker 3: of targeting her with dodgeballs to get revenge for her
- 26:14Speaker 3: breaking up with him, and like he is literally facing
- 26:18Speaker 3: charges from the law for this. His mom is furious.
- 26:21Speaker 3: His mom is like, listen, does he deserve to be punished? Yeah,
- 26:25Speaker 3: they were probably a little mean to the girl, but
- 26:27Speaker 3: this should not be in the court of law. He
- 26:29Speaker 3: should not be facing charges. But the police are saying, essentially,
- 26:34Speaker 3: they threw so many at her that it essentially they
- 26:37Speaker 3: became weapons and violence. I saw the bruises that it left.
- 26:42Speaker 3: That was crazy. See here's my thing in dodgeball bony.
- 26:45Speaker 3: Don't you just hit her once and she's out? Yeah?
- 26:50Speaker 3: Got so? How many times were you? My god? What
- 26:52Speaker 3: did you do? Just keep throwing out? Like, I need
- 26:54Speaker 3: to know the circumstances on this.
- 26:56Speaker 4: They were thrown from different angles. Yeah, Now you didn't
- 26:59Speaker 4: read the the information on the young man mac. He's
- 27:02Speaker 4: the grandson of legend dairy dodgeball thrower Patches a Whole.
- 27:07Speaker 3: Yeah, how did I not read that in this article?
- 27:10Speaker 3: Oh my god? So I'm what the believing it, but
- 27:12Speaker 3: I also like, you need to know the details of that,
- 27:16Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Yeah, was like, did she
- 27:18Speaker 3: get hit already and y'all kept throwing balls out?
- 27:21Speaker 4: Was she off to the side and just standing there
- 27:23Speaker 4: and still getting pelted?
- 27:24Speaker 3: Or I feel like maybe the law doesn't need to
- 27:27Speaker 3: get in. But it sounds like you're pretty mean and bitter.
- 27:31Speaker 3: I just girl son, it definitely does. That's like my
- 27:34Speaker 3: third grade breakup when I got beat up by the
- 27:36Speaker 3: girl on the other team mad me until me underneath
- 27:39Speaker 3: the boards and beat me up. I'm not pretty. I'm
- 27:42Speaker 3: surprised they're still playing dodgeball in schools in this very
- 27:45Speaker 3: PC era. They have to wear helmets now. Probably I'm
- 27:49Speaker 3: that's that true?
- 27:50Speaker 2: Made up?
- 27:51Speaker 4: Okay, okay, Mac, I do this story, and I'm gonna
- 27:55Speaker 4: preface it by saying it's one of these ones where
- 27:58Speaker 4: I don't know exactly how real it is because it
- 28:01Speaker 4: went viral over the weekend.
- 28:03Speaker 3: It's from the local news. I can't really.
- 28:06Speaker 4: Find much on this guy, but he was on the
- 28:08Speaker 4: local news outside of a Costco and he was talking
- 28:12Speaker 4: about how he only eats off costco free samples right
- 28:16Speaker 4: now because he's saving money for football season to fund
- 28:20Speaker 4: his gambling habits. I mean, he was on TV he
- 28:25Speaker 4: said it. But again, was this guy being serious? I
- 28:28Speaker 4: don't know, but it did go viral. I'll bring it
- 28:30Speaker 4: up to you. Are you buying mad this guy's eating
- 28:32Speaker 4: only off free samples right now? Or is this guy
- 28:35Speaker 4: just making up? I'm not even gonna what to bleep them.
- 28:37Speaker 4: Maybe this is what I should be doing.
- 28:39Speaker 3: Maybe I can afford bone to have more than seven
- 28:41Speaker 3: cents in my account on sports matting if I just
- 28:45Speaker 3: do this too. Yeah, you know what I mean. I'm
- 28:47Speaker 3: sure the family wouldn't be happy about it.
- 28:49Speaker 4: I'm gonna say, guy's fake, because how you're gonna get
- 28:53Speaker 4: enough food off the samples to get enough food in
- 28:56Speaker 4: your body?
- 28:57Speaker 3: You got to it was on the news, so I
- 28:59Speaker 3: don't know. I feel like you'd have to hit up
- 29:02Speaker 3: like a circuit of grocery stores to get enough sample
- 29:04Speaker 3: food for you, And like, you know what I mean,
- 29:06Speaker 3: Like you'd have to hit like all the grocery stores
- 29:08Speaker 3: like in your you know, in a certain radius and
- 29:11Speaker 3: being because just one, because how many times can you
- 29:13Speaker 3: come back and get disamples from the same lady. It
- 29:15Speaker 3: doesn't make anyway. I respect it, though I respect the discipline.
- 29:19Speaker 3: So am I what to bleeping you for believing the
- 29:21Speaker 3: story initially boned? Ye believe me. By the way, the
- 29:25Speaker 3: text line is weighing in. See this this whole thing
- 29:28Speaker 3: with the lawsuit on the dodgeball or the charges is
- 29:31Speaker 3: this thing is is an interesting convo. It seems like
- 29:35Speaker 3: most people are siding with the girl though. Uh, this
- 29:41Speaker 3: dude says, it's diabolical what they did. Baron says the
- 29:44Speaker 3: dodge or he said the dodgeball instance, Uh, is diabolical.
- 29:50Speaker 3: This texture says, imagine if that's your daughter, how you
- 29:52Speaker 3: would feel. I think you would want him charged with
- 29:55Speaker 3: a crime. Yeah, I mean, it just depends on the
- 29:57Speaker 3: total circumstances of it. They were foam dodgeballs, by the way,
- 30:01Speaker 3: foam dodgeball. Yes, but you said that the girl was
- 30:04Speaker 3: bruised though she was. Yeah, I don't know. It's just
- 30:07Speaker 3: another example of a young boy that age with his
- 30:10Speaker 3: junior testosterone turning them in a little little jerk like
- 30:14Speaker 3: as a tail as all as time. And I say,
- 30:15Speaker 3: this is somebody that was a little jerk back when
- 30:18Speaker 3: I was younger.
- 30:19Speaker 4: They said that the defense has been that they it
- 30:22Speaker 4: was during the regular game.
- 30:23Speaker 3: But that is a lot of bruising.
- 30:25Speaker 4: Though for one ad, I'm trying to figure they all
- 30:27Speaker 4: just did you get hit?
- 30:28Speaker 3: And they all all threw it once or was it
- 30:30Speaker 3: multiple games? They just kept throwing at her, you know
- 30:33Speaker 3: what I mean, Like I need some of the details
- 30:35Speaker 3: of how savage this attack is. But yes, they are
- 30:38Speaker 3: little testosterone driven bunks, but there's many of them out there.
- 30:43Speaker 3: It's sadly, you know, all right?
- 30:45Speaker 4: That is what the believe when we come back here
- 30:47Speaker 4: on the Mac and Bone Show, The Panthers offensive line
- 30:51Speaker 4: is under fire, is it now? The biggest fan worry
- 30:54Speaker 4: that we have Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 31:12Speaker 3: I think we didn't perform well.
- 31:14Speaker 5: I think that's clear from the tape and the stats
- 31:16Speaker 5: and and kind of how we did in those first
- 31:17Speaker 5: few plays there. I think we just got to improve
- 31:19Speaker 5: playing as a group. And I know it's cliche and
- 31:21Speaker 5: coach speak, and let's coach speak for a reason, right,
- 31:25Speaker 5: As you guys know, in this league, you hope for
- 31:27Speaker 5: no injury, but injury happens, and no matter who runs
- 31:29Speaker 5: out there on game day, we gotta be able to
- 31:31Speaker 5: play well together. So I think more and more reps
- 31:34Speaker 5: and we've gotten you know, the extra game, and you
- 31:36Speaker 5: know that thankfully that was only preseason one. We got
- 31:38Speaker 5: plenty of time, So more reps.
- 31:41Speaker 3: That is Luke Fordner owning up to the performance from
- 31:45Speaker 3: the offensive line that was subpar the other day, especially
- 31:50Speaker 3: in the in in that interior, and he was involved
- 31:52Speaker 3: to probably not you know, the number one guilty party.
- 31:55Speaker 3: I would put that on Chandler Zavala, but they all
- 31:58Speaker 3: were involved. Even Walker on the out side was involved
- 32:00Speaker 3: on the third down play where Bryce had to throw
- 32:02Speaker 3: the ball away because he was beat. So I'll give
- 32:05Speaker 3: Fortner credit there for manning up Bone. Seems like a
- 32:08Speaker 3: good dude. Now listen, if he keeps getting penalties when
- 32:12Speaker 3: we move the chains being a good dude, it's not enough.
- 32:15Speaker 3: But like you look at the way Bone he has
- 32:17Speaker 3: gotten into scraps out there to stand up for his
- 32:19Speaker 3: teammates on offense and the accountability there. I think he
- 32:23Speaker 3: seems like a pretty good dude to have in the
- 32:24Speaker 3: locker room personality wise.
- 32:25Speaker 4: One hundred percent. You need that, you need that toughness,
- 32:28Speaker 4: that leadership of that spot, and I think he does
- 32:29Speaker 4: provide that, albeit a bad day the other day.
- 32:32Speaker 3: I'm not ready. I'm not ready to throw in the
- 32:34Speaker 3: towel on any means. So here's the question. Is offensive
- 32:37Speaker 3: line now? Because we spent the better part of four
- 32:40Speaker 3: hours yesterday, Bone, you know, complaining about the offensive line
- 32:45Speaker 3: tee and off on the way they perform, worrying about
- 32:47Speaker 3: our interior depthic guard and stuff like that, you know,
- 32:52Speaker 3: praying for no injury, Stunt or or Lewis Is it
- 32:58Speaker 3: now the biggest can this team? Does it bypass something
- 33:02Speaker 3: like linebacker or edge rusher or would that be an
- 33:07Speaker 3: overreaction Bone to say that, I think it's an overreaction.
- 33:10Speaker 3: I still worry about linebacker the most. The other day,
- 33:13Speaker 3: the left tackle was new to the team, The guards
- 33:17Speaker 3: were not the starting high priced guards, The center was new.
- 33:21Speaker 3: There was a rookie at right tackle in a different
- 33:23Speaker 3: spot than he thought.
- 33:24Speaker 4: He was going to play in. It was all new.
- 33:27Speaker 4: It wasn't good. Zavalla was bad. But I look at
- 33:30Speaker 4: it as there's a.
- 33:32Speaker 2: Lot of guys.
- 33:32Speaker 4: There's a lot of moving parts on the offensive line
- 33:34Speaker 4: right now, but eventually the tackle depth could be excellent.
- 33:38Speaker 4: When Ikey comes back, When Mogen gets back freely moves
- 33:41Speaker 4: back to the left, you've got Walker Ikey can be
- 33:44Speaker 4: maybe a movable chess piece along the offensive line. I
- 33:48Speaker 4: think while it was a bad day on Saturday, it
- 33:51Speaker 4: may take some the offensive line that takes them once
- 33:54Speaker 4: for a while. I worry far more about the depth
- 33:57Speaker 4: of the linebacker spot than I do the offensive line.
- 34:01Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not giving them a pass, but I don't.
- 34:04Speaker 4: Long term, I think they'll be fine. I think the
- 34:06Speaker 4: difference is linebacker.
- 34:07Speaker 3: There's a starting spot that we are worried about, right Yes,
- 34:12Speaker 3: Chererliss struggles to cover. Wallace has been really bad in
- 34:17Speaker 3: the run game, at least part of the PFF numbers.
- 34:20Speaker 3: Wallace has flashed but has not been able to do
- 34:23Speaker 3: it consistently. And we saw the other day man Cherless
- 34:26Speaker 3: and coverage is something. Albeit it was against DJ Moore
- 34:30Speaker 3: and Shakir in fairness to him, but can you trust
- 34:33Speaker 3: him to be out there in those situations? Bone, So,
- 34:35Speaker 3: I think the thing about the linebacker spot is it's
- 34:38Speaker 3: the front line guy. The offensive line depth though, is
- 34:42Speaker 3: definitely concerning right now. There could be help on the way, though,
- 34:46Speaker 3: Bone Like I would say this on behalf of Brady Christiansen.
- 34:50Speaker 3: I would think he would get better. Bone, Yeah, he
- 34:55Speaker 3: tore his achilles and he literally just joined the team
- 34:58Speaker 3: before camp, so I think you've got to give him
- 35:01Speaker 3: a little bit of leeway. Chandler z of Alla, I am,
- 35:04Speaker 3: you know pretty much do not want to see the
- 35:06Speaker 3: man out there in panther blue on the football field
- 35:08Speaker 3: on a regular season game. That would concern me, and
- 35:11Speaker 3: I do think I think it was Panther Pickle on
- 35:13Speaker 3: the text line yesterday that said, why not give a
- 35:15Speaker 3: look to a guy like say mac at guard over
- 35:18Speaker 3: a Chailer. Why not give a look to a guy
- 35:20Speaker 3: like Jay Kerhan, who you just brought back over Chandler Zavala,
- 35:24Speaker 3: I will say this though, bone help is on the
- 35:27Speaker 3: way on the offensive line eventually. Yes, for the first
- 35:30Speaker 3: time it sounded like bone. Dave Canalis gave a positive,
- 35:34Speaker 3: you know, a health status update on Ikiakuanu. We know
- 35:38Speaker 3: that Trapeo in Chicago had the same injury on the
- 35:42Speaker 3: same day and back practicing now, so so Ikey could
- 35:46Speaker 3: be help on the way to help you with depth.
- 35:48Speaker 3: Taylor Mowten, you would feel like eventually it might take
- 35:52Speaker 3: a few weeks into the regular season, but you would
- 35:54Speaker 3: feel like he would could come back, and you had
- 35:56Speaker 3: brought up the last two days A fascinating suggestion. Could
- 36:01Speaker 3: you get to the point where when you have Moten back,
- 36:04Speaker 3: Freeling goes to the left side, Walker's your backup tackle
- 36:07Speaker 3: and Ikey is guard depth. Could you do something like
- 36:11Speaker 3: that bone if you get both those.
- 36:12Speaker 4: Tackles, Because if you're gonna have all these guys that
- 36:14Speaker 4: you're not gonna need, you know, Walker, Moen, Ikey and
- 36:20Speaker 4: Freeing all to be tackles and depth guys, certainly one
- 36:23Speaker 4: of them you would want there. But that leads a
- 36:27Speaker 4: Ikey k I would say, Ikey kind of in limbo,
- 36:30Speaker 4: and if he's good to play, why not maximize the
- 36:33Speaker 4: most you can out of these guys? And eventually, who knows,
- 36:36Speaker 4: the offensive line is not gonna stay healthy all year,
- 36:39Speaker 4: so may come to a point where a guard unfortunately
- 36:42Speaker 4: he goes out and Nicky is the best option there.
- 36:44Speaker 3: Why's a roll with that? Yeah, I mean, listen, if
- 36:46Speaker 3: Brady ces playing great or whatever, that's fine too. But
- 36:49Speaker 3: my feeling is Ikey is gonna come. When Ikey does
- 36:52Speaker 3: come back, do we think there's a tackle spot for him?
- 36:55Speaker 3: I mean, I guess if Monroe, Freeling and Walker are struggling,
- 36:59Speaker 3: But like if one of those guys is playing well
- 37:02Speaker 3: and mowteen and Nicky come back. It feels like, especially
- 37:05Speaker 3: if Freeling's playing well, if Freelingk's playing well, I would
- 37:08Speaker 3: be shocked bone if he's not the starting left tackle. Yep.
- 37:12Speaker 3: So where does Icky fit into the equation? Well, how
- 37:15Speaker 3: many times have we heard people say he's a moler?
- 37:19Speaker 3: He could play inside, you know, like played a little inside.
- 37:23Speaker 3: Its statement not much, but like so I feel like
- 37:27Speaker 3: I feel like that is something too. So I do
- 37:29Speaker 3: think help will eventually be on the way as far
- 37:32Speaker 3: as the O line goes. This Texter says it's linebacker
- 37:36Speaker 3: and it's not even close. Devin Lloyd will have to
- 37:39Speaker 3: literally play two people's positions. They do have that option
- 37:43Speaker 3: bone of moving Merrick into the linebacker spot like they
- 37:46Speaker 3: did last year. At times they didn't show that. There's
- 37:50Speaker 3: two things they didn't show on defense bone. The other day,
- 37:53Speaker 3: they didn't show that look where Merrik moves up into
- 37:57Speaker 3: a linebacker spot and Ransom comes in at a safety,
- 38:00Speaker 3: which they can do if they don't trust necessarily Wallace
- 38:03Speaker 3: or cherilists. And the other thing they didn't show is
- 38:05Speaker 3: they didn't show you Horn in the slot. The other
- 38:07Speaker 3: day as well. Yeah, so I feel like a Verroo's
- 38:09Speaker 3: holding couple a couple of things back.
- 38:11Speaker 4: You wonder what the matchup would have looked like with
- 38:13Speaker 4: DJ Moore if they were moving Horn around into that spot. Also,
- 38:16Speaker 4: would that have been the similar result? So you're right,
- 38:19Speaker 4: that is something worth bringing up there. Or Kerhan, Kerkhan's
- 38:22Speaker 4: not the texter, he's if he's the player. Actually, that's
- 38:24Speaker 4: what the Shaggy says.
- 38:26Speaker 3: Kerrhan was already better last year, Brian says. Brian says,
- 38:33Speaker 3: get Mike K on the line. If you want to
- 38:34Speaker 3: know why Nick Seymak should be playing ahead of Chandler Zavala,
- 38:38Speaker 3: well yesterday, Permike K because you know he's gonna give
- 38:41Speaker 3: you the Nick Saymac updates bone. Mike K likes two
- 38:45Speaker 3: things over there at the Panthers practices. He likes skinny
- 38:48Speaker 3: posts and he likes Jake likes Nick saman no patz
- 38:51Speaker 3: Okay and then Nopaz, not in any particular order. Semak
- 38:56Speaker 3: was with the guards yesterday and Kirkham's with the guards.
- 38:59Speaker 3: They actually gave U all of some reps at center yesterday,
- 39:02Speaker 3: which is interesting. I would think Brady Christensen would be
- 39:05Speaker 3: better equipped to be the backup center. But this is
- 39:07Speaker 3: what they're doing their experiment with all this stuff. Like
- 39:10Speaker 3: right now, it doesn't matter. It matters bone when these
- 39:13Speaker 3: guys get called on in regular season games, that's when
- 39:16Speaker 3: they have to have it sorted out. You know.
- 39:17Speaker 4: I also have to have a little patience with some
- 39:19Speaker 4: of this offensive line stuff. As we said when this
- 39:22Speaker 4: segment began, there's a lot of moving parts. There's a
- 39:25Speaker 4: lot of new pieces to each other here. They're not
- 39:28Speaker 4: used to each other. The center is getting used to
- 39:30Speaker 4: the to the guards, and he's got different guards in
- 39:33Speaker 4: there on Saturday than they'll have in the regular season.
- 39:35Speaker 4: Free wing's getting They're all getting used to each other,
- 39:38Speaker 4: not just positionally, but they're getting used to each other.
- 39:41Speaker 4: It's not just as simple as you wind up, you
- 39:43Speaker 4: go play. You've got to get used to your teammates there.
- 39:45Speaker 3: This segment is turned from a gripefest about the offensive
- 39:49Speaker 3: line to gripe it about a varo and his cushions
- 39:52Speaker 3: on defense. Bob talking Bryce Young, I don't even see
- 39:56Speaker 3: those I've got I now have the ability to ignore
- 39:59Speaker 3: those now, at least today I.
- 40:01Speaker 4: Had changed things were paid on the side to toa
- 40:04Speaker 4: brightce yar and that's his latest sery.
- 40:07Speaker 3: All right, man, whatever whatever floats your boat there, Bobster,
- 40:09Speaker 3: But no, I want to deal with this Savarro disdain
- 40:12Speaker 3: another guy that someone will probably tell me I'm paid
- 40:14Speaker 3: to defend, Doctor Suave says. Also Avo is holding corners
- 40:18Speaker 3: pack fifteen yards. That's normal. Another Texter shocker. We also
- 40:24Speaker 3: had cushions for days for the cornerbacks.
- 40:26Speaker 6: These really peace partners checking in on the text line.
- 40:30Speaker 3: I will say this again right now. I am not
- 40:33Speaker 3: gonna freak out over schematic things in a preseason game,
- 40:37Speaker 3: but we have seen it over time. Now there's two
- 40:39Speaker 3: things going on here bone with the cushions. One is
- 40:42Speaker 3: you're gonna see a lot of cushions because what Savarro's
- 40:45Speaker 3: defense designed to do take away the big plays, keep
- 40:48Speaker 3: you in front of us, and at some point you
- 40:50Speaker 3: will make a mistake in the drive, or we'll hold
- 40:51Speaker 3: you to a field goal, or we'll first a turnover,
- 40:53Speaker 3: or we'll get a sack or something like that, and
- 40:56Speaker 3: we will eventually stop your drive. But we won't give
- 40:58Speaker 3: up big plays. But I will say this, I have
- 41:01Speaker 3: seen this before in regular season games, and I saw
- 41:04Speaker 3: it the other day. Why on Earth are you giving
- 41:08Speaker 3: eleven yard cushions when it's fourth and three. That's where
- 41:11Speaker 3: you lost me. You give cushions in general. You're trying
- 41:14Speaker 3: to keep plays in front of you. I understand the philosophy.
- 41:16Speaker 3: Greg Olsen's talked a lot about how successful that philosophy
- 41:20Speaker 3: is around the league, But I have seen this over
- 41:23Speaker 3: the years. Bone the fourth and short, where the cushion
- 41:26Speaker 3: is like eight yards back. That makes no sense to me.
- 41:29Speaker 3: You are just giving them the first down. No, you
- 41:32Speaker 3: need to send those cushions back. Id them get that.
- 41:35Speaker 3: I don't get those cushions. A bout the home goods.
- 41:37Speaker 3: Wherever you find your cushions, I don't know. Cushion guy,
- 41:41Speaker 3: all right, we come back back. I'm looking forward to this.
- 41:43Speaker 4: We've seen him on Twitter for a very long time,
- 41:47Speaker 4: the man behind the account Old Taste Exposed Freezing Cold Takes,
- 41:52Speaker 4: Fred Siegel. He joins us to talk about his new
- 41:55Speaker 4: book about some of the worst college football takes of
- 41:59Speaker 4: all time, and I'm sure some of our tastes will
- 42:01Speaker 4: probably be discussed as well. On Sports Radio ninety two
