• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Jack is in a red shirt again. That's two episodes
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: in a row. Austin and I are not what the
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: hell is going on?
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: This one's maroonska fan.
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: This is not how it's correct.
• 0:34
  Speaker 5: This Maroon North roots. I don't know. That looks pretty
• 0:40
  Speaker 5: red to me.
• 0:42
  Speaker 6: No, that that is what HIMR sent Maroon.
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: Where's your fan in the background at this time?
• 0:47
  Speaker 6: Well, oh no, I'm in a hotel this time. Oh
• 0:53
  Speaker 6: it's been living been living out of out of city
• 0:56
  Speaker 6: for a while.
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: Look at you, hard working and all right.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Well it's gonna be a little bit more of a
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: fun episode. We are gonna talk some Huscar football. We're
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: gonna start by going through just the new college football format, landscape, conferences, playoffs,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: and then we're all gonna give some bold predictions.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: And I told these guys they need to be bold.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: We're not doing stuff that's like fifty to fifty like
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: this stuff is probably not gonna happen, but they're gonna
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: be bold. Some Husker related, some more national related. So
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: have a little fun with that later on. Before we
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: get started with any of that, first want to mention
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: people probably have heard but Teddy Prohaska.
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: Hurt his knee. He was in the running.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: It sounded like, if not maybe the starter at left
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: tackle for an offensive line that probably is already Thinn
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Turner Corcoran now is back full time, I think at
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: that left tackle spot if he can stay healthy as well.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: He's coming off his injury from last year. Real quick initial,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, first off, like, feel bad for Teddy. He
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I think he's tore both of his acls or both
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: of his knees up again, shoulder problems last year.
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: He just can't seem to stay healthy.
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say it's a devastating or huge blow for
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: the team, but it's obviously not good.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, really bad for your really bad for your death,
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: that's for sure.
• 2:38
  Speaker 7: If it's gonna happen, you know, you probably prefer it
• 2:40
  Speaker 7: happens at the beginning of fall camp, so you have
• 2:42
  Speaker 7: fall camp to figure it out and maybe try to
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: beep up one of your backups a little bit better
• 2:48
  Speaker 7: but not great. But I mean he's been hurt every
• 2:51
  Speaker 7: year he's played. I don't even know if he played
• 2:52
  Speaker 7: all of last year, did he.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I think he got a little bit of time. Yeah,
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: I mean his backup is refreshment, I think in Gunnar Gatula,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: so uh, it's not Yeah, for a depth reasoning, it's
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: not great, and it's gonna be a group that pass
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: into a good job of protecting Dylan back.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: There are quarterbacks. So not not good news I guess
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: this week.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: But like you said, at least there's time here before
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: we kick off the season to build some continuity with
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: that group before we hit utap.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: Guys, we are two weeks from this. Upcoming Saturday is
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: Week zero.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: That's wild.
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: Can't wait that Week zero slate though, awful.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: That that is one of me.
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: That's one of the worst slates of football I've ever saw.
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: But I don't care. I could literally watch kids play
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: football in the in the yard and I'd be happy.
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: But I don't care.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Kids.
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: Just do we need to get a restraining order filed
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: on you?
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: Jesus?
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: All right, let's jump into this whole new college football
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: world that we are living in, at least for twenty
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: twenty four. Most people are probably familiar with it. Conferences,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: first off, look way different. The Big Ten added four schools.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: We're at eighteen schools. The SEC's up to sixteen adding
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma and Texas. The Big Twelve I believe is up
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: to sixteen or eighteen. They added a handful of teams
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: to their conference. The Pac twelve is down to the
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Pack two, and apparently there still have some sort of
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: an alliance right now, just a lot of moving parts
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: into something that I don't know if we're done, but
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: we seem like we're at a spot, at least for
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: this season that there's not going to be any more
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: moving parts. Notre Dame, I think, is the big one
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: that no nobody really knows where they're going to go,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: if they're going to go anywhere they need to go.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: But I guess first off, let me ask the Austin like,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: what do you think this means for college football?
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: Maybe for this year and the impact of the sport,
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: but then also like in the future.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Just regarding conferencary alignment.
• 5:19
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, it's definitely a shift towards more of
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: a pro style system. Like it's players are gonna start
• 5:28
  Speaker 7: getting paid, there's gonna be player of contracts, there's probably
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: gonna be a salary cap at some point. Obviously it's
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: not gonna impact this year. This year, you're just gonna
• 5:36
  Speaker 7: see the big shake up probably in the Big Ten.
• 5:39
  Speaker 7: I don't really think the SEC, the SEC top dogs
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: are gonna be the same SEC top dogs.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: Whoa whoa about that.
• 5:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I feel pretty good about that deck. Excluding Texas
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: of course that must be here. You're the Big ten
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: that you have Oregon and USC, which I think could
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: cause it to be a little bit spicier than it's.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Been the past.
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: Probably will be you know, the Michigan Ohio State Big
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: Ten Championship game.
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: But had to guess, Yeah, yeah, I think I think
• 6:14
  Speaker 8: this is the only last MAX two three years like
• 6:17
  Speaker 8: it is right now, it's gonna move, It's gonna all
• 6:20
  Speaker 8: shift up again.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: I think the ACC will go away, and then I
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: think it's just gonna be the Big twelve, Big ten
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: SEC basically, and then Notre Dame. They'll probably stay independent.
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: If I if I had to guess, I don't think
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: they'll have a drone of conference.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: What they don't need to they make some.
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they have the NBC contract and they'll never leave that.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Now, the only way they might is if these conferences
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: start forming their own leagues, and we've.
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: Talked about that a lot. In the past couple of years.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: These teams have been signing these deals forgot to mention
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: the ACC, so yeah, thanks for bringing that up back too.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I think they have I don't know what are they
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: actually sixteen as well?
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: I think so.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: It does all depending on the sport too.
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: We're talking specifically to the football ens, but there are
• 7:14
  Speaker 7: it's a whole different game.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: You start talking about basketball in their conferences.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Here's here's the one thing to me that I don't
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: think people are talking about enough, and it's going to
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: shock a lot of people, especially in for sure the
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: ACC and the Big twelve, maybe even the Big Ten
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: and SEC.
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: There's no divisions anymore.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: So I've heard this on a few other podcasts, but
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: there's potential for a lot of ties at the top,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: and typically in the past, the tiebreaker rules are pretty easy,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: right you look at conference record and you look at
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: division record.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: Then you have head to head I guess head to
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: heads first.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: But now you're going to have maybe three teams with
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: one or two loss at the top, who maybe two
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: of them have played each other another one hasn't. So
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know that these conferences have a bunch of
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: tiebreaker rules set in place yet. Maybe they do, but
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: it can get it's gonna get pretty complicated, and there's
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of people complaining if there's I'm
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: just throwing out the big ten for example, Ohio State,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Oregon and Penn Stayed all with two losses at the top.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: He'll throw a fourth one in there, like who gets
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: to play in the conference title game. There's no more divisions,
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: and that allows the team Iowa, who has a cake
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: schedule again this year, Every fucking year they have a
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: cake schedule, Like if they go in with two losses,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: they're in the argument too, but they don't play any
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: of the top teams. Like, I just think that's gonna
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: be an issue that nobody's really foreseeing because we haven't
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: thought that far ahead or haven't experienced it. But it
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: could happen in all four conferences. If there's not any
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: like powerhouse top teams.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: It'll hit fast. They don't any tiebreakers ready, they because
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: you got to think one of these conference is that
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: there's gonna be at least three team tie the conversations.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: And then let me ask you this. Let's say you
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: have three two loss teams top. Your winner is gonna
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: get into the playoff by the automatic bid. Now are
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: you putting in the conference loser, or are you putting
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: in that third team with two losses? Are you putting
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: in the nine and three team? Or I think it's
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: it's it's gonna get it's gonna get messy when it
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: gets to the rankings, and like it'll be very telling
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: for the committee, like who is sitting around that seven
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: through fifteen spot in the rankings week after a week
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: and what kind of teams those are. I mean, this
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: is conference only, but the playoff the new structure top
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: four I correct me if I'm wrong, but the top
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: four are automatic bids if I think the highest from
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: the Power four and a group of five the four
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: highest seeds, So it doesn't necessarily have to be the
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Power four conferences.
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: People are kind of assuming that.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: But let's just say the Big twelve beats everybody up
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: and a team like Tulane goes eleven and one is
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: ranked eighth toains getting in at that four spot. So
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: you have the buys. Then you have the other four
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: games that are gonna be at home sites. I could
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: see that being the cause of an issue, but I
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: also think it's going to be fun as hell for
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: those home site games.
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: I mean.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Playoff games at home and for college football that has
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: never happened before.
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: Which back then on our Dame, I forgot about this.
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: This might force him joint conference. They cannot get a
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: home game right now in this format, like it's impossible
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: then for them to get a playoff home game.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: They can get a home game, that can't.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they can't get oh yeah five yep, yep, because
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: they're never going to be one of those five conference
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: automatic bits.
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: But they could be a five through.
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: Eight seed and that'll make them join quick.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's another Dak's all. He's coming off this year
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: with a lot of great takes that you are off
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: to a roll here four episodes.
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: In, Well, it's all that study and I've been telling
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: you I'm doing.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: So this playoff format, twelve teams. Where do we see
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: the flaws? We talked a little bit about that already,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: But where are people going to pick holes in it?
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of good to it. I
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: also am under the belief it's not going to be
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: around here for a long time. So what where is
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: it going to go wrong?
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 11:38
  Speaker 7: I mean, honestly, I think having twelve teams gives the
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: committee a decent leeway, like you know, people aren't like
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: last year in Florida Stake.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I left out, which I agree was bullshit.
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: You know, with twelve teams, it's a lot harder to
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: be like, well, I don't know, like Utah they were
• 11:54
  Speaker 7: the thirteenth best team, like you know they're they're the
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: thirteen seed.
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: I think they should have gotten over LSU. Well, you know,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: like obviously there's gonna be that discourse.
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: But I think when you get twelve out, it's not
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: like a clear like hey, this team was undefeated and.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Got left out of the playoffs, Like that's not gonna happen.
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: It's gonna be a two or three lost team that
• 12:13
  Speaker 7: might get in. But as far as flaws, it really
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: comes out of the committee and how you know it's
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: the SEC bias is going to be real.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: I have no idea get dack.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I mean add to that, by how many SEC teams
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: do you think you're going to get in?
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: U normally year four or five minimum? Because I don't
• 12:45
  Speaker 6: like the SEC. I hate we joined it, but there
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: is a bias by them.
• 12:48
  Speaker 7: And ESPN owns the TV right playoffs. They also they're
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: gonna right to the SEC.
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: It's you know, there's a big bias behind it, a
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: lot of money. But but going back to what you
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: said about staying, how long is this going to stay.
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: They've already tried to get sixteen teams in before this
• 13:09
  Speaker 6: even happened, Like they tried last year to get the
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: sixteen before we even kicked off the twelveeam playoffs. So
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: it won't be long before at sixteen.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: And my opinion on all of it, I really don't
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: care how many teams are in. The more football the better, right,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: the more the longer we can make college football season. Like,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: I'm happier. The biggest law or I think what's going
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: to be the biggest problem is going to be the.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Debate of championship games.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Not no, I think those are going to be Those
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: are going to be straightforward, right. The champion gets in
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: kind of what I mentioned earlier.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: Does the loser of the championship games.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: But I think but I think the SEC like right now,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: the consensus is going to be the SEC championship losers
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: in no matter what I would say, the big tens
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: almost in so like it. People are gonna make that argument.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Then you're gonna say, Okay, does a third get into
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: the fourth get in. Well, once you start getting to
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: those three loss teams that are coming from the SEC
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: the Big ten, you're gonna compare them with the two
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: loss ACC and the two loss Big twelve, and then
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: you're gonna compare them with all the two and one
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: loss non power. I mean, there's gonna be fifteen teams
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: in that conversation that we haven't paid much attention to
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: in the rankings in the past because all we've been
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: focused on is the top eight seven eight.
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: People are gonna pay very close attention to spots ninety up.
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: So here is I say, here's last year's Here's where
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: the AP top twenty five ended last year.
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: Look at the Playoff top twenty five, not the AP.
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: They're different.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: The Playoff Committee's top twenty five is what the top
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: twenty five is. So I asked before you do that,
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I will say that because people have asked about that,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: like who decides who gets in, like what rankings aside,
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: I'm like, no, the Playoff Committee has their own rankings,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: and those are the rankings that get used. I think
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: they come out like Week eight or so around that time.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: Those get used on TV and all the media from
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: then on. The AP and the coaches poll are just
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: used basically up to that point. Then the committee of
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: I don't even know how many are on it. I
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: should know that, but I don't. The committee is the
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: one that ranks these teams how they ever they feel,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: and then who ultimately decides to get in the playoffs.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they AP and coach are basically just preseason high poll.
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: That's all it is. They don't matter one bit.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So here's last year.
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: So obviously you had to the four Michigan, Washington, Texas, Alabama,
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: Florida State, Georgia, Ohio State, Oregon was the first two
• 15:45
  Speaker 7: two loss team Missouri two loss, Penn State two loss,
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: Ole miss two loss, Oklahoma two loss.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: So that's the top twelve.
• 15:53
  Speaker 7: And then it drops to your first three loss team,
• 15:56
  Speaker 7: which would be LSU, Arizona, Louisville, Notre Dame, Iowa, NC State,
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: Oregon State lost four games, Oklahoma State lost four games, Tennessee.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Where's Where's Where's You don't go through the whole list,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: but where's where is the non first non power for
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: school in there?
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: Let me think probably Notre Dame. Well so acc yeah,
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: it would be Notre Dame.
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: So who's next?
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Notre Dame, NC State, they're a sec right yeah, yeah,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Oregon State number nineteen.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: I mean they technically would be.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: They're not power their power four you said powerful.
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: Right, you know what they are.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Liberty is at.
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: Twenty three smusing the big twelve, right, So it's just Liberty.
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: Oregon State and Notre Dame were the only three non
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: power or schools.
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: So yeah, last year it would have been Liberty.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Well yeah, so they would have been the one that
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: would have got in under that criteria.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: So you would have got.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: One of those in in years past, I think we've
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: seen teams like Toledo, Toy and I'm trying to think
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: of other just SMU was one of those Boise States
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: year Madison that have creeped in the top twenty, like
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: fifteen in that range to USC, thanks for calling that out.
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: So there's there's a lot of potential there. But that
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: what that tells us right there from last year is
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: they are favoring the power conference two three four lost
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: type teams over some of these one and two loss wellmember, he.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: Was twenty three and they were thirteen and.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Oh yep, so there you go. So it'll that to
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: me is going to be interesting how they play that out?
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Are they going to how are they going to do it?
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: So anyways, I any other thoughts. I guess right now
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: we're obviously going to continue this conversation much into the season,
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: so it'll be fun. Like people need to enjoy it
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: and not bitch about it. That's my biggest thing. Don't
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: don't perfect, it's never gonna be perfect. Enjoy that we
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: have more football. I think playoff games are awesome, Like
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: I hope someone like Wyoming can pull off like a
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: twelve and oh season and host a home game and
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: larer me in the oh my god, Like think how
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: awesome that would be if a team like a team
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: like a team like USC or a team like let's
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: say Oklahoma has a good year and they gotta go
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: to Laramie to play like that'd be so awesome.
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: Those long games are't gonna be awesome. I wish they
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: would move them out of the middle of the winner,
• 18:44
  Speaker 6: but that's all right. I guess they'll be all right.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: That's part of it.
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: Man, Like a middle middle of January game and Lincoln.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: It would be sweet.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Or picture like Texas having to go play Ohio State
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: as like the eleven to six game, go to Columbus like, Oh,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: it's good, It's gonna be great. I agree, all right, Uh,
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: second part here, let's move on to our bold prediction.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: So I told these guys they gotta be bold, less
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: than ten five chance of happening.
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: You can do whatever you want.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: It can be a game outcome, it can be a
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: player outcome, it can be a scenario that plays out. Uh,
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: we're gonna stay specific to one Nebraska related bold prediction
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: and then one college football related prediction. But this should
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: spark some conversation. So I want people to challenge. I
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: want us to challenge why they won't happen. But you
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: got to stick by your guns and think why it will.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: I don't think you guys to determine if it's truly bold.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: I was trying to figure out what's the Austin.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: You were the one I was worried about, Like you're not.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: I want you to dig deep, like.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: I know, I know, I think I got a decent
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: one for the Huskers. But when it comes to the.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Let's start college football, since we've just been talking about it, Yeah,
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: go ahead, Austin hits, we'll see it.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: We'll see how you do all right, So.
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: Mine is my bold one is a team that is
• 20:23
  Speaker 7: currently not ranked in the preseason coaches top twenty five
• 20:27
  Speaker 7: will make the semi finals. Is that bold enough a
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: top they'll end up finishing in the top four team.
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's pretty bold.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: That's bold.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: I want you to add to it and give me
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: like a list of like three teams that you think
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: it could be.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: I think Washington, Auburn.
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: I think, you know, there's that world where Wisconsin maybe
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: has a frisky little year, ends up top twelve and
• 20:52
  Speaker 7: they sneak in there. Obviously Nebraska and Colorado, who are
• 20:57
  Speaker 7: both worthy.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: I'm just kidding. No, that's not happening.
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: But I do think, honestly, like Washington might not have
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: as big of a dip as people think. Louisville kind
• 21:04
  Speaker 7: of came on last year.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I like the louis a lot of the teams you
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: mentioned so far. Yeah, and then I don't know. I
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: think I think Washington could have a really dad year
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: losing Yeah, Wisconsin, who knows, case state's ranked like seventh, sixty,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: fifteenth or something.
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't think exactly. I didn't think you
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: didn't hear me there.
• 21:30
  Speaker 7: Honestly, any of the a SEC teams could all could
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: win the ACT. And also they're in the game. They're
• 21:35
  Speaker 7: in the tournament, the playoffs. I don't see tournament that
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: feels like two basketball. But they're in the playoffs. And
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: then if you just win a couple of games, all
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: of a sudden in your top four.
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: Kansas is ranked right, okay, because I could see them
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: making a run. God, I don't know about top four.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: That's because you're gonna have to win.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: You're Onregon win two playoffs games.
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know about that. Wisconsin was the only
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: one that you said that I can maybe see it.
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: It all depends on Van Dyke.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: You just have to make it to top twelve, and
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: they only have to do is win two games.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: Van Dyke at a top five of the stadium.
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, Dak hit me with yours, all right, I
• 22:38
  Speaker 6: actual one hundred percent believe this one.
• 22:41
  Speaker 8: All right.
• 22:42
  Speaker 6: USC will go five and seven, and Lincoln I will
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: be fired at the end of the year.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: Wow, that is a spicy take.
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: I don't know about the five. I think he's gonna
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: get fired at the end of the year. He's not
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: a good coach. I've been saying this, but I've said
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: it now.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: He has to have such a bad losing season to get.
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: Fired, Like I think he's I think he's on the
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: hot seat right now a little bit.
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: I don't think he is, do you, I said, do
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: you think that's less than ten five percent?
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: I think gets fired?
• 23:11
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: Just I don't know. So their win total right now,
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: sitting at seven and a half.
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: Look at the QB fountain, this dude's head and what
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: what the what?
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: I will say, if he goes five and seven, he's
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: probably gone. I would that's probably not a bad take.
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: Would you agree that he's already on the hot seat
• 23:30
  Speaker 6: a little bit?
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: I think so, it's probably.
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: You wouldn't say he's like on the edge of like
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: I can't name it. Who's a coach? I don't know.
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: He's not. He's not like a one bad, one semi
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: bad losing season from getting fired.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: But I don't think he's there.
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: I mean, it all falls apart. You gotta look at
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: this dude's Trafford though he can never get a defense
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: at all. I don't he's had. He's had the best
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: QB talent I think ever the coaches had.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the only reason why I said eight and five
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: year two. The only reason why I say that he's
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: that might not be under ten percent. Like I I
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: don't know that this USC team is like getting talked
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: about like the top three teams in the Big Ten.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: I think they're the one like coming into the Big
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: Ten that people think might really struggle because of what
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: you said, and they don't have a defense. I agree
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: that if they go five and seven, he's fired, But
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: I like, I'm like, going five and seven.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: To me is.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Like not likely, but it's probable for a team like
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: USC coming in.
• 24:40
  Speaker 7: I mean, is their preseason rank and the Coaches Bowl
• 24:43
  Speaker 7: is twenty third.
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's pretty low, so they are ranked.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: They're ranks twenty three preseason Coke.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, shit, how many Nor One picks this dude had.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: That's why I think it's That's why I don't think
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: he'll get fired. I think you gotta win.
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: You gotta win. Eventually, your find find a way to
• 25:08
  Speaker 6: get a defense. But love of God, Texas Tech has
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: found a way to get a better defense than he
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: can he can ever find.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: But maybe maybe in the Big Ten you won't need
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: as good of one with some of these offenses.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: He won't like that's that's just that's just true.
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: He won't. But but I don't know, and this is
• 25:36
  Speaker 6: not hate at all.
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: I like the guy don't even all right, So they
• 25:40
  Speaker 7: start week one against l s U and then you
• 25:44
  Speaker 7: can't play Matt Michigan, Minnesota, Penn State, Maryland, Rutgers, Washington, Nebraska,
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: U c l A and the year of Notre Dame.
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they're there. They might go five and seven.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: They might, I might not be you might need to
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: lower that to four and eight or even three nine.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: That was that was that look in their schedule. I
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: don't think that was a bold take right there. They
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: might they might actually go five and seven. That's a
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: hard ass schedule.
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: It is actually really hard because like Utah State's not terrible, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Maryland, Brookers, Washington.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, it must be real. What games Little is
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: gonna come down to? Nebraska, Minnesota and Wisconsin are going
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: to be your and then U c l A, probably
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: c l A your quote unquote toss up games that
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: if they win those, they could be seven and five.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: They lose them, they could be that four and seven
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: or five and eight.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: For they could have three wins. That's that's not no joke.
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: They could with that schedule, they could easily have three wins.
• 26:45
  Speaker 7: But the schedule offer also offers some opportunities to have
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: a big win, which goes a long way entertaining a coach,
• 26:52
  Speaker 7: Like if he goes out there and he ends the
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: year beating you know, a number three ranked Notre Dame,
• 26:57
  Speaker 7: where he beats Michigan in week three before they find
• 27:01
  Speaker 7: out that they're bad and it's a big game.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we spent way too much time talking about USC.
• 27:13
  Speaker 6: No hate, no hate, no hate.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: He's so full of shit.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: H my bold prediction, and I tried to set it
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: up a little bit with our playoff discussion.
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: This is what I think is gonna happen this year.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: I think all these conferences I briefly mentioned, they're gonna
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: beat each other up. The only one that I don't
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: think could happen to is the SEC maybe the Big ten.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: I think the Big twelve is gonna have four teams
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: with three losses or I'm even gonna say three losses
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: at the top. I think the ACC is in the
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: same boat. So my prediction is that the winner obviously
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: of those get in. But then I think four non
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: Power four schools are getting into the playoffs this year
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: for the twelve Now, wow, one of those is an
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: automatical and then the others notre day.
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: Okay, so we're looking at.
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: The next teams. Here's here's here's I started looking. I
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: started looking at win totals.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Now I'm not I don't even think Oregon State Washington
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: State are either one of those. Okay, the highest tied
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: for the highest win total in the country is Liberty
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: at ten and a half.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: So Liberty goes eleven and one. They're in. I don't
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: know where they're at in the rankings, but they're in
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: the leak can't remember.
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: His name is, but he was I thought he left.
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: So that's that's insane that.
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: I think they're one to get in.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: I think Boise State has a chance to run the
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Mountain West and get in. Their win totals nine and
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: a half. Apple Wasshan State's at eight and a half,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Texas State, Toledo ut s a j MU, They're all
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: eight and a half win totals.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: It just takes a couple of.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: James Madison Miami, Ohio JMU.
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: Air Force is six and a half.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Here's what I what I think could happen is a
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: lot of these schools could have two losses, and if
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: there are a lot of three and four lost teams
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: from these other conferences, I think the committee for this
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: first year might say, let's throw in some of these
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: smaller teams. They can get their ass kicked, and that
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: way nobody's gonna bitch about it next year and go
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: back to put one in now. I don't know if
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: that's bold, but getting four and nobody's gonna expect four
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: these nobody's gonna expect Liberty, Boise State, and app State
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: all to get in. But I don't think it's out
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: of the realm of possibility that it could happen, because
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: I do think nobody's gonna expect all these conferences to
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: beat each other up.
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: The ACC in the Big twelve right now, there are
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: so evenly balanced.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: ACC doesn't have your I mean, Clemson Forestate are decent, right,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: but like they're not top heavy like.
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: They used to be. Even in the SEC.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think Georgia is gonna get in right
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: as long as they don't lose three or four games, But.
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: They could beat each other up.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan, Oregon. Yeah, teams like they
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: could all happen, like everybody could have.
• 30:17
  Speaker 7: The biggest counter to that, though, is it comes down
• 30:19
  Speaker 7: to a committee selection, and I think they're gonna really
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: favor like, hey, you lost to Georgia and Texas this year,
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: you're probably and so they're fighting for twelve spots. Five
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: are already taken. We're gonna I'm gonna make the assumption
• 30:34
  Speaker 7: notre dames and so you really don't you got six spots,
• 30:36
  Speaker 7: you're working for for three or for two more spots.
• 30:41
  Speaker 7: I think it's gonna be really tough for one of
• 30:42
  Speaker 7: those teams to get in those top twelve.
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: We'll see. That's my thing, four of them.
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: The thing about the playoffs that I like is how
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: much can you really bitch if you have three loss?
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: You don't make it like four State could bitch last
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: year they were thirteen. Oh how much like you know,
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: three games?
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's where the conversation is gonna heat up. Okay,
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: Husker prediction, I'll start mine. I actually have two written down.
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: I'll go.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: I'll go with the one that I actually think will happen.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: The other one I don't think will, but it was
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: a fun scenario. I'm just gonna start by saying, before
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: the end of the year, we're gonna make a ball game.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: That's not the bold prediction. Before the end of the year,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Dave Randa will be our new defensive coordinator. WHOA, I'll
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: leave it at that. So you're saying the year, Yeah,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: before the end of the year, he'll be hired as the.
• 31:36
  Speaker 7: New calendar year or the football season. Okay, so you're
• 31:40
  Speaker 7: thinking that White's probably gonna get hired after the season ends,
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: and then.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Before the season ends, there'll be a job that opens up.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: He'll get hired before the ball game. That happens all
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: the time where coordinators take head jobs. And then and
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: I'll say this, he can still coach the ball game,
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: but he will take a job somewhere else and Dave Aranda,
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: because Dave Raanda is going to get fired from Baylor
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: before the end of the year and he.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: Was rules DC when he was down there.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: I don't know that for sure. I should look that
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: up before making the steak, but I know they have connections.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I know they have very strong connections. He was at
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: Dave Randa was at LSU for a while with Les.
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: Miles, so I'm pretty sure he was rules DC. I'm looking, man,
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: that's a hot ass take. I don't you have to
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: have two things happen there.
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: You want to talk about a bold prediction, But I'm.
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: Gonna have to have two things happen there. I guess
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: I have two things in mine too.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: But it doesn't look like he ever overlapped with the rule.
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: I think he took over right at fire.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: He took over right after him. I didn't know if
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: he was on the staff.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah prior. All right, someone else jump in, give me
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: your take.
• 32:49
  Speaker 7: Alright, this one feels pretty bold. This is a pretty
• 32:52
  Speaker 7: spicy one. By the end of the year. Speaking of
• 32:56
  Speaker 7: collective units on the Husker team, the best unit is
• 32:59
  Speaker 7: going to be the offensive line. Wow, quarterback play because
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: that's a one position unit. But I think as a
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: collective unit at the end of the year, it's gonna
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: be the offensive line. We're gonna be like, Wow, the
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: offensive line really carried this team this year.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: Doll.
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: I hope you're right, because that means we had a
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: damn good year.
• 33:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that means are gonna have one hell of a
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: year that happens good. I don't see anyway.
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: Big progress, I say, Bryce benher was all big ten.
• 33:32
  Speaker 7: We thought he was a freaking stick in the mud
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: prior another year under thumb.
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: Your blind side, Your blind side is already screwed up.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, did you make that before or after we found
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: out the teddy?
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: It was after?
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: Mm hmm.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: That's practice. Last year it was. It was a lot better.
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: You thought last year.
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: It was way than it was last year. Gotten, Yeah,
• 34:01
  Speaker 7: but yeah, last year was actually pretty good. It wasn't
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: bad to stack the box because our we couldn't pass
• 34:09
  Speaker 7: the ball. All our receivers hurt, all our running backs
• 34:11
  Speaker 7: were hurt. They held up pretty well.
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'd say they had a good offensive line year.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: I mean what unit, what collective unit? I mean D line, wide.
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: Receivers, any defensive position.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know if i'd say that last year.
• 34:25
  Speaker 5: You say wide receivers.
• 34:27
  Speaker 7: I'm talking this year. Oh what what? What unit could
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: claim that title?
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: Probably corners any side of the defense, don't We'll see
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: D line.
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: That's the I like it. I liked I liked it.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: That was bold.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: That was that was the definition of bold, considering we
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: haven't had that in a long time.
• 34:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, guys, I wanna step outside and fight
• 34:52
  Speaker 6: me after this one. Alright, Nebraska doesn't make a bowl
• 34:55
  Speaker 6: game and Dean Rylod transfers after the year. Wow, I
• 35:00
  Speaker 6: don't know how much I believe that first part of it.
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: The second part I think can easily happen. What keep
• 35:05
  Speaker 6: spots opening up after.
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: The year, Ohio State, probably.
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: No, Georgia good point.
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: Carson Back's leaving.
• 35:21
  Speaker 5: I mean, I think if you're gonna make that take that,
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: you gotta stick with both.
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, Nebraska doesn't make a bowl game.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: Because I will say this too, if we don't make
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: a bowl game, I do think he's leaving, Like, yeah,
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: why would you stay here?
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: I just think that's gonna happen.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know that part's bold, but I mean the
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: part not making a bowl game I think is pretty.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: Or win total is seven, I don't know that's that's
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: were taking a seven and a half win told out
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: of five and calling it bold.
• 35:47
  Speaker 6: But I think I think they go hand in hand
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: those two. If you don't make a bowl game, he's gone.
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: If you do, it depends on.
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: What you're.
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: I I think you got win eight games to have
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: a state.
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: That's gonna be a tough.
• 36:03
  Speaker 7: Look though, that's gonna be a real tough look, that's
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: the only reason why I don't think he would transfer.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: Maybe after year one, after year two and that with
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: another rough year.
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: But when you are Ohio State and Georgia and then
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: you jumped to the brask and then you jump back
• 36:16
  Speaker 7: to Georgia.
• 36:18
  Speaker 6: These players don't care anymore.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: I think they care a little bit.
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: So I'm gonna chime in.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: So this, dak your take actually ties into my other
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: like scenario that went through my head. And guys, I'm
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: catching myself too. And maybe it's true and maybe it'll
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: work out fine, But why are we just assuming that
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Dylan Rayl is gonna be this gy?
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: I mean, we thought we've seen glimpses, but so good.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: Like, here's here's the the scenario that you know, we're
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: Husker fans. We've suffered through a lot recently, and if
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: that suffering just continues, which and why shouldn't it, that's
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: just what we're used to play this scenario out and
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: tell me it's not possible.
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: We start the year Dylan Roola is really good, right.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: We play UTEP, kick the ass, keep the crap out
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: of him, We play Colorado, and we have this quote
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: unquote easier schedule Dylan Rayola gets gunslinger happy because he
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: thinks he's really really good and starts throwing picks. Our
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: offensive line gets banged up. We can't block anybody to
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: save our lives. He's starting to get strip sacked. We
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: start turning the ball over because it's what we know
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: how to do. The turnover issues not fixed. So by
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: the bye week before we play Indiana, let's say whatever
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: our record is, Dylan Rayola now is not good. So
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: everybody's bitch and blah blah blah blah. We throw in
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: Heinrich Harberg because now Dylan gets benched. So my bull
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: prediction was Dylan gets benched and Heinrich comes out and starts.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: Now Heini Harber comes out, looks really good. We went
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: beat Indiana because he's more improved than We play Ohio State,
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: and we hang around and now him and Dylan are
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: going back and forth with the job and they both
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: look okay, and maybe we still make a bowl game
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: and we go seven and five or six and six,
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: because but Heini is part of the reason why at quarterback,
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: because he did a good job of filling in, and
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Rayola kind of came down to earth now and is
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: not turning over, but nobody really knows that whole scenario.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: And then Rayola's gone that I'm like, why why couldn't
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: that happen?
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: Like, I don't know, I don't think that's that crazy.
• 38:21
  Speaker 6: I almost put that I'm not joking. Then I almost
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: put this my bull take that that Dean Ryela comes
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: out sucks and they mentioned for Heiner Carbard, I don't
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: know think he's that nuts. He's a true freshman quarterback.
• 38:34
  Speaker 6: You have no clue what he's gonna look like.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well we're gonna be out of time. We can
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: continue this conversation because it's juicy.
• 38:41
  Speaker 5: It's juicy. We'll talk Sunday.
• 38:44
  Speaker 6: Go be read here you are Boom or sooner. T
