- 0:34SPEAKER_04: How about that?
- 0:36SPEAKER_04: Two in a row.
- 0:38SPEAKER_04: And it is it was an off week for Florida State, but a lot to get to around the league.
- 0:45SPEAKER_04: Let's start with the NFL this time.
- 0:49SPEAKER_04: And the Chiefs got blown out.
- 0:54SPEAKER_04: Yes, they did.
- 0:55SPEAKER_04: I don't know who saw that coming.
- 0:59SPEAKER_04: Maybe.
- 1:00SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 1:00SPEAKER_04: I did.
- 1:01SPEAKER_04: Alright.
- 1:02SPEAKER_04: Me.
- 1:04SPEAKER_04: They still have a dominant defense, and they look like they're gonna be a tough out as the Niners lose to the Falcons.
- 1:17SPEAKER_04: As the injuries be as you see McCaffrey go down, not but he's not hurt, but you could see how much they're riding him, and then once he went out, it was it.
- 1:29SPEAKER_04: They don't have anybody else to go to.
- 1:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah, that's it.
- 1:37SPEAKER_04: Giants, uh I knew that line was way too high.
- 1:42SPEAKER_04: Ten points for the Texans, come on.
- 1:44SPEAKER_04: As Scattaboo returns, good performance of him.
- 1:48SPEAKER_04: McCarthy showed why.
- 1:51SPEAKER_04: As you he's just got a better arm.
- 1:54SPEAKER_04: If he doesn't make mistakes in plays like that, yeah.
- 1:58SPEAKER_04: Bring Jay they brought Jameis in for the short yardage.
- 2:04SPEAKER_04: You're not gonna want to hurt the young guy.
- 2:06SPEAKER_04: He doesn't he's not as big.
- 2:09SPEAKER_04: And it's but yeah, he he he they showed why he went and got him.
- 2:15SPEAKER_04: I mean you can tell just on some of the run fits, just the threat of having someone that can run.
- 2:23SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 2:23SPEAKER_04: The defensive end has to stay there and it opens that inside hole or further for that handoff.
- 2:29SPEAKER_04: Just that alone is I get it.
- 2:31SPEAKER_04: I mean, I it but big win for them.
- 2:36SPEAKER_04: They look like they're gonna run away with the NFC East, even though the Cowboys are still the favorites to win the NFC East as they go play tonight at Philadelphia.
- 2:47SPEAKER_04: Ugh.
- 2:48SPEAKER_04: That game sucks.
- 2:49SPEAKER_04: I won't be watching.
- 2:51SPEAKER_04: The Dolphins get their first win of the year.
- 2:53SPEAKER_04: Good God.
- 2:56SPEAKER_04: Jets still suck.
- 2:58SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 2:58SPEAKER_04: Aaron Glenn's gonna get fired.
- 3:00SPEAKER_04: I thought he already would.
- 3:05SPEAKER_04: The Rams get a much needed win.
- 3:08SPEAKER_04: The Raiders are back.
- 3:10SPEAKER_02: Back to being back to being the Raiders.
- 3:14SPEAKER_04: Uh the Bengals, I they look like they're going to zero points at halftime.
- 3:21SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and they just turn it on.
- 3:23SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 3:24SPEAKER_04: Explosion.
- 3:25SPEAKER_04: They can do that because they have that kind of offense when it's healthy.
- 3:29SPEAKER_02: You know what's insane is how bad Derrick Henry is in short yardage situations.
- 3:34SPEAKER_04: It is.
- 3:35SPEAKER_02: It's crazy.
- 3:36SPEAKER_04: He needs he needs time to get it rolling, I guess.
- 3:39SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 3:39SPEAKER_02: So why not just line him up 15 yards behind the quarterback and just throw it back to him.
- 3:45SPEAKER_02: Be like, all right, bro, run as fast as you can.
- 3:47SPEAKER_02: Come on.
- 3:47SPEAKER_04: Just start it.
- 3:48SPEAKER_04: Just get that head of steam going.
- 3:50SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 3:53SPEAKER_04: That was a total talk about halftime adjustments.
- 3:57SPEAKER_04: Jeez.
- 3:59SPEAKER_02: But even that like they go in there and Zach Taylor's like, all right, guys, guys, look up here.
- 4:04SPEAKER_02: They suck, okay?
- 4:06SPEAKER_02: But you're right, coach.
- 4:07SPEAKER_02: You're right.
- 4:08SPEAKER_02: Let's go out here.
- 4:09SPEAKER_02: We're gonna score five touchdowns.
- 4:10SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 4:11SPEAKER_04: I mean, geez, they didn't score nothing.
- 4:14SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 4:18SPEAKER_04: Only undefeated team left in the Minnesota Vikings.
- 4:21SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and the 16 to 10 ugly win against the Colts.
- 4:24SPEAKER_02: They keep doing it, man.
- 4:26SPEAKER_04: It's it's crazy how an offensive genius doesn't score any points.
- 4:32SPEAKER_04: And then look at how good JJ looked.
- 4:35SPEAKER_04: I mean, but I'm saying you couldn't make it work.
- 4:39SPEAKER_02: Nah, it's too complicated for him.
- 4:41SPEAKER_04: So we'll simplify it.
- 4:43SPEAKER_02: No, I'm not simplifying.
- 4:44SPEAKER_02: I'm just gonna get somebody less dumb.
- 4:46SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 4:47SPEAKER_02: It's easier to do that.
- 4:48SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 4:52SPEAKER_04: But I mean, they play, if they just don't turn the football over and punt it and get that defense.
- 4:57SPEAKER_04: It's hard to go so many plays on that defense.
- 5:01SPEAKER_04: They're coming at you every play.
- 5:03SPEAKER_02: I'm interested to see if somebody actually hires Brian Flores.
- 5:08SPEAKER_04: That's a good question.
- 5:09SPEAKER_02: Because I mean he's he's beyond deserving of another head coach job, but see the Knicks Ciano.
- 5:15SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 5:15SPEAKER_04: You know what I mean?
- 5:16SPEAKER_04: Like he's just he's just such a great D D DC.
- 5:20SPEAKER_04: It might not even work as a head coach.
- 5:22SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 5:23SPEAKER_04: So good at defense coordinator, only works.
- 5:25SPEAKER_02: And you're gonna see the what what kind of you know backroom blackballing they have in the league.
- 5:30SPEAKER_02: Um because of what happened in Miami.
- 5:33SPEAKER_04: Well, that's why they just they've already gave him another contract in Minnesota.
- 5:37SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 5:38SPEAKER_04: So I think it's just like just stay here.
- 5:40SPEAKER_04: I was him, I'd stay there.
- 5:41SPEAKER_04: Like I mean, you don't it's just so much to wor worry about as far as the offense and the quarterback, you know.
- 5:48SPEAKER_04: I mean, when you're the defense, the defensive-minded head coach, I think, is gonna be something that you're not gonna see much.
- 5:57SPEAKER_04: Although, I mean, you see the Super Bowl champs add one.
- 6:00SPEAKER_04: So uh that's probably not true.
- 6:03SPEAKER_04: There's trend ebbs and flows.
- 6:06SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 6:07SPEAKER_04: What about um the Bucks, man?
- 6:10SPEAKER_04: Geez, yeah, that was crazy.
- 6:13SPEAKER_04: I mean, good God, that was that was like playing a FCS opponent for a big school.
- 6:22SPEAKER_04: I mean, the Panthers just one game started feeling themselves a little too much, right?
- 6:27SPEAKER_04: And then if you look at the matchup history, the last 10 matchups, or I think the Bucks won eight.
- 6:32SPEAKER_04: So Baker's healthy.
- 6:34SPEAKER_04: Baker was healthy, and they were playing desperate.
- 6:37SPEAKER_04: And if you look at the games, they were losing, but it's not like they were getting their asses kicked.
- 6:43SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 6:44SPEAKER_04: I mean, they took the Steelers to overtime with the backup.
- 6:46SPEAKER_04: So they have talent.
- 6:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah, and they should be doing a lot of things.
- 6:50SPEAKER_04: We were supposed to win the division.
- 6:51SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 6:51SPEAKER_04: Well, this they still can't.
- 6:52SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 6:53SPEAKER_04: This game right here, I believe, was that turning point could be because trade rumors are starting to circulate around Vitavea and some of the, I mean, which they should if they're gonna not have a chance.
- 7:04SPEAKER_04: But yeah, with that win alone, I think you have to you have to hang tight and try to play it out.
- 7:09SPEAKER_04: Because you all you need to do is get to eight wins, pretty much.
- 7:13SPEAKER_04: Saved his job.
- 7:14SPEAKER_04: Because the Saints saved his job.
- 7:16SPEAKER_04: The Saints lose.
- 7:18SPEAKER_04: Um they they there's something off there.
- 7:22SPEAKER_04: You know, uh, I thought they would they're just not very good.
- 7:26SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they beat bad teams.
- 7:27SPEAKER_02: You know, Camara is old.
- 7:29SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 7:30SPEAKER_04: Um Shucks now.
- 7:32SPEAKER_04: That's bad.
- 7:33SPEAKER_04: No, he's but he's still a young quarterback.
- 7:36SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 7:36SPEAKER_04: Defense is hit or miss.
- 7:39SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's getting up there.
- 7:40SPEAKER_04: I mean, there's some old guys on that defense that I relied upon.
- 7:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 7:46SPEAKER_04: And then um, so the Bucs, it's right there, but the Falcons, man, they they look like they should win the division.
- 7:52SPEAKER_04: I said that in the beginning of the season.
- 7:55SPEAKER_04: I think they saw, but you saw what they could do.
- 7:58SPEAKER_04: They have the best receiver in the division, I believe.
- 8:01SPEAKER_04: Or one of them.
- 8:02SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 8:03SPEAKER_04: And Drake May.
- 8:04SPEAKER_04: Not Drake.
- 8:06SPEAKER_02: Drake May.
- 8:07SPEAKER_02: Drake London.
- 8:09SPEAKER_02: We'll see, man.
- 8:11SPEAKER_02: I mean You know, they're not gonna play a team every week that's missing like 14 guys off the two deep.
- 8:17SPEAKER_04: So it's true.
- 8:18SPEAKER_02: You just it's kind of what the Falcons do, man.
- 8:22SPEAKER_02: They look like shit for a couple games and then they pull one out and then go back to looking like shit.
- 8:29SPEAKER_04: It's like the NFC South, but then you have the team the uh NFC North.
- 8:35SPEAKER_04: I mean, the worst team in that division is the Packers.
- 8:38SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they got screwed last night.
- 8:40SPEAKER_04: Yeah, everybody else has got a good record.
- 8:43SPEAKER_04: The Vikings are undefeated, the Lions are 5-2, and then the Bears are five-two.
- 8:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 8:49SPEAKER_04: Uh how about the AFC North with the Browns again getting the last second win, going down 14-0.
- 8:57SPEAKER_04: And you know, they're yeah, again, it's like I'll tell you what, man, Todd Munkins doing a good job.
- 9:04SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 9:05SPEAKER_04: I think he that showed that he coaching matters, man.
- 9:08SPEAKER_02: Yeah, being able to keep your locker room together during the game, keep them focused.
- 9:15SPEAKER_04: Just saying, hey, I'm going with Deshaun.
- 9:17SPEAKER_04: Stop.
- 9:17SPEAKER_04: We're not we're not going to Deshore.
- 9:19SPEAKER_02: No, they're not going to any anywhere.
- 9:22SPEAKER_02: We're not going to Deshore.
- 9:24SPEAKER_02: Shadur Shadozy.
- 9:26SPEAKER_02: Shaducha.
- 9:28SPEAKER_02: We're not going to him.
- 9:29SPEAKER_04: DeShore.
- 9:30SPEAKER_02: Deshore.
- 9:33SPEAKER_04: I like that better.
- 9:34SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's better.
- 9:35SPEAKER_04: Oh, man.
- 9:36SPEAKER_04: Shadois.
- 9:38SPEAKER_04: But I still think they're the team that uh I still it's gonna be, and then the the Steelers, man, they they gotta they tough it out, and Rogers can make some throws when needed.
- 9:54SPEAKER_02: That that entire that entire division is like that.
- 9:57SPEAKER_02: It's like, you know, the the other three teams are still alive because they're not the Browns.
- 10:02SPEAKER_04: I doesn't feel like they're yeah.
- 10:05SPEAKER_04: I think Cincinnati's the team that need that's gonna step up and should take that division.
- 10:09SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they got the best roster.
- 10:11SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 10:11SPEAKER_04: With the moves they made on defense, yeah, combined with what they had already had on offense.
- 10:15SPEAKER_04: Yep, that that team should should, but it is, you never know.
- 10:20SPEAKER_04: They should win it.
- 10:21SPEAKER_04: And then you have, I think the Steelers probably make a wild card.
- 10:26SPEAKER_04: And I just I don't know if the Browns can keep it up.
- 10:29SPEAKER_04: We'll see.
- 10:30SPEAKER_04: If Lamar's not gonna come back, the Ravens, they've had two, they're two up and down as well.
- 10:38SPEAKER_04: And uh, I don't think they're gonna last.
- 10:40SPEAKER_04: Um but the Broncos uh big win in Arizona as Knicks had like a 60-something yard touchdown run.
- 10:50SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 10:51SPEAKER_04: It's like that foot's getting back to healthy.
- 10:53SPEAKER_04: Well, it does fine, whatever.
- 10:54SPEAKER_04: It's the Cardinals.
- 10:55SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 10:57SPEAKER_04: But with the Chiefs lost, they're only a game back now.
- 11:01SPEAKER_04: And it's gonna be those two, as you thought.
- 11:04SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 11:05SPEAKER_02: Raiders aren't doing anything.
- 11:08SPEAKER_02: They might as well pitch.
- 11:11SPEAKER_04: You thought with with the Texans beating, having starting 0-4, then winning two straight, especially the win they had over the division leading Jaguars.
- 11:20SPEAKER_04: You thought that they were making a turn, but the Giants come into their house and beat them.
- 11:24SPEAKER_04: That's a big that's a bad loss for the Texans.
- 11:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 11:28SPEAKER_02: Something they could not afford.
- 11:30SPEAKER_02: No, no, you needed that one.
- 11:31SPEAKER_02: I mean, the rest of their schedule, it sets up really well for them, but you can't lose to teams that that one might get them at the end.
- 11:39SPEAKER_04: I don't think they can come back from that.
- 11:41SPEAKER_04: We'll see.
- 11:41SPEAKER_04: Five losses already.
- 11:42SPEAKER_04: The Jags are too good.
- 11:44SPEAKER_04: They're they're gonna get a 10 win.
- 11:46SPEAKER_02: So they're not gonna you're gonna you're not gonna have enough room for you're gonna have to get the wild card, and that's gonna be tough.
- 11:56SPEAKER_04: Um, you have the Patriots and the Bills that are both probably gonna make it.
- 12:01SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 12:01SPEAKER_04: And the the Broncos and the Chiefs that are both probably gonna make it, and then so the AFC South's gonna get one.
- 12:08SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's gonna be the Jags.
- 12:10SPEAKER_04: And then you're and then you have the AFC North is gonna be two as well, probably.
- 12:15SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 12:16SPEAKER_04: So that's it's interesting.
- 12:19SPEAKER_04: And then the same in the NFC, you have the North fighting it out.
- 12:23SPEAKER_04: The West, it looks like you have three teams.
- 12:28SPEAKER_04: I mean, right now the Rams don't know that they're gonna make it, but no, but I mean, you don't know how the second half of the season's gonna go.
- 12:35SPEAKER_04: That was a must-win.
- 12:36SPEAKER_04: They got it.
- 12:37SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 12:37SPEAKER_04: So let's see if they can get on a little run here.
- 12:41SPEAKER_04: But as far as the NFC South goes, that's one team.
- 12:45SPEAKER_04: NFC East is one team.
- 12:47SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 12:48SPEAKER_04: There's not gonna be two.
- 12:49SPEAKER_04: So it's gonna be the NFC West, maybe you're it's gonna be you're gonna have to get back and you're gonna be fighting against the Bears of the and then the Packers and the Lions, all those teams.
- 13:00SPEAKER_04: One of those divisions is gonna get three.
- 13:02SPEAKER_02: It'll likely be the North.
- 13:04SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 13:05SPEAKER_02: Man, I don't think three are coming from the West because they're gonna just eat each other up.
- 13:11SPEAKER_02: They still gotta play.
- 13:13SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 13:15SPEAKER_04: Um, but Minnesota's your last undefeated team.
- 13:18SPEAKER_04: Who would have had that, huh?
- 13:21SPEAKER_04: All right, and then the last winless team is the Chargers.
- 13:27SPEAKER_04: Like everyone predicted.
- 13:29SPEAKER_04: Right?
- 13:29SPEAKER_04: Crazy, man.
- 13:30SPEAKER_04: We know less.
- 13:31SPEAKER_04: With Jake Herbert.
- 13:32SPEAKER_04: It's like we know, yeah.
- 13:34SPEAKER_02: He's changing his name.
- 13:35SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 13:37SPEAKER_04: Uh so alright, let's go to college football.
- 13:40SPEAKER_04: As this past weekend, we had a fun one in Texas.
- 13:45SPEAKER_04: Um, the Longhorns got the win.
- 13:48SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna tell you something, man.
- 13:49SPEAKER_02: Arch has some balls celebrating and acting a fool like he did when it they took the ball out of his hand to keep from blowing that game.
- 14:00SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 14:01SPEAKER_02: It's like, all right, dude, if you if we keep letting you throw the ball, Ole Miss is gonna come back and win this game.
- 14:07SPEAKER_02: We're just going to hand it off.
- 14:11SPEAKER_02: But sure enough, he's the face of the the victory.
- 14:15SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah, for sure.
- 14:17SPEAKER_02: Kid sucks.
- 14:19SPEAKER_02: That's right, I said it.
- 14:21SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it was a fun game.
- 14:22SPEAKER_02: Fun game.
- 14:24SPEAKER_04: Fun game.
- 14:26SPEAKER_04: Yeah, they're they're put him right back in the playoff race.
- 14:29SPEAKER_04: But they'll lose again.
- 14:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 14:32SPEAKER_02: You know, sure.
- 14:34SPEAKER_02: Whatever.
- 14:34SPEAKER_04: We'll miss now five and two.
- 14:36SPEAKER_04: So both those teams are five and two.
- 14:37SPEAKER_04: They're starting at uh Kentucky on top of the SEC.
- 14:41SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 14:41SPEAKER_02: How about that?
- 14:42SPEAKER_02: Tied with Georgia.
- 14:43SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 14:44SPEAKER_02: Could could be alone after next weekend.
- 14:47SPEAKER_02: Georgia plays Florida.
- 14:49SPEAKER_02: Insane.
- 14:51SPEAKER_04: Uh you had Texas Tech losing to Cincinnati.
- 14:56SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 14:56SPEAKER_04: BYU losing to UCF.
- 14:58SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that big upset right there, right here in Florida.
- 15:02SPEAKER_04: UCF double overtime, really gutsy performance by them.
- 15:07SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 15:08SPEAKER_02: And biggest thing I take away from that is like BYU had no business being number two in the country.
- 15:14SPEAKER_04: Right, right.
- 15:14SPEAKER_04: I I believe that were that was just fluff.
- 15:17SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's all overreaction week to week.
- 15:19SPEAKER_04: Um, you know.
- 15:21SPEAKER_04: I mean, that's a game you circled for UCF as a game that they needed to win, that they could win.
- 15:27SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 15:28SPEAKER_02: We're gonna catch them.
- 15:28SPEAKER_04: It's I mean, that they have a home field advantage there.
- 15:31SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 15:31SPEAKER_02: We're gonna catch them in Orlando in the rain.
- 15:34SPEAKER_02: Because when like right after they play Notre Dame.
- 15:37SPEAKER_04: How many big now people have to go play there because before they were in the Big 12, nobody actually would play them there.
- 15:43SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 15:43SPEAKER_02: So well, that was part of them getting in the Big 12.
- 15:46SPEAKER_04: Right, having that stadium.
- 15:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 15:49SPEAKER_04: Well, that that was a big win for them.
- 15:51SPEAKER_04: Beat him with their backup quarterback.
- 15:53SPEAKER_04: No, from uh Willie's guy.
- 15:54SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 15:55SPEAKER_04: From FIU.
- 15:57SPEAKER_04: Um SMU finally opened the doors, put up 59.
- 16:03SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 16:03SPEAKER_04: It's gonna be that battle for who's gonna play Miami and the ACC.
- 16:08SPEAKER_02: It's gonna come down to the winner of Wake and SMU.
- 16:11SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 16:12SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
- 16:13SPEAKER_02: Um, I think Wake probably wins that game.
- 16:15SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah.
- 16:16SPEAKER_02: I I I could see Wake losing two games this year, and it's both to Miami.
- 16:22SPEAKER_02: Do they get in the playoffs if that happens?
- 16:24SPEAKER_02: No.
- 16:24SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 16:25SPEAKER_02: They don't play anybody else.
- 16:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, right.
- 16:27SPEAKER_02: You know, if you play, if you put even if you played Florida State or Clemson and had a name, brand program that you beat, right?
- 16:35SPEAKER_02: Because Louisville is gonna finish with five losses and unranked, SMU will probably be unranked.
- 16:41SPEAKER_02: There's just nobody there.
- 16:43SPEAKER_04: So it kind of shows you that might as well just make it a 24 team playoff, right?
- 16:48SPEAKER_02: I mean, why not?
- 16:50SPEAKER_02: I mean, I'd rather them go back to fucking four, to be honest with you, but whatever.
- 16:56SPEAKER_04: Really, I think it's watering down the I mean the regular seasons just it already doesn't mean shit.
- 17:01SPEAKER_02: You know, everybody going on about oh man, this is the fewest undefeated teams there have been this early since 77.
- 17:07SPEAKER_02: It's like it doesn't matter.
- 17:09SPEAKER_02: Yeah, being undefeated doesn't mean anything anymore.
- 17:12SPEAKER_02: I mean, you might get a top four seed.
- 17:15SPEAKER_02: Great.
- 17:15SPEAKER_02: Look at Oregon two years ago.
- 17:17SPEAKER_02: Their reward was having to play Ohio State in their first game.
- 17:22SPEAKER_02: Great.
- 17:22SPEAKER_02: I'm glad we finished the season number one.
- 17:24SPEAKER_04: UCLA's still undefeated.
- 17:26SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 17:28SPEAKER_04: They play Nevada next.
- 17:29SPEAKER_02: USC went down to Illinois.
- 17:32SPEAKER_02: North Carolina went down to Syracuse in overtime a week before.
- 17:36SPEAKER_02: They play Miami this week.
- 17:38SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 17:38SPEAKER_02: Um Clemson went down to Virginia Tech.
- 17:41SPEAKER_04: And damn it, my Iowa Hawkeyes lost one of the coolest trophies.
- 17:45SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 17:46SPEAKER_04: The pig trophy.
- 17:47SPEAKER_04: To Rob Cordry.
- 17:48SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 17:48SPEAKER_02: And the Minnesota Ghosts.
- 17:50SPEAKER_04: 13 to 10, as you expected.
- 17:51SPEAKER_04: Oh, of course.
- 17:52SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 17:53SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 17:54SPEAKER_02: Indiana keeps scraping by.
- 17:57SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 17:57SPEAKER_02: With defense.
- 17:58SPEAKER_02: They're quarterbacks.
- 17:59SPEAKER_02: Michigan.
- 18:00SPEAKER_02: Dude, Indiana's quarterback is horrible.
- 18:03SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it's not good.
- 18:05SPEAKER_04: They pretty much have maybe better defense than last year, maybe.
- 18:09SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
- 18:09SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they're older.
- 18:10SPEAKER_02: It's all the same guys.
- 18:11SPEAKER_04: Yeah, but you can tell, like, oh, no Mendoza, though.
- 18:14SPEAKER_02: And that that's that's Signeti.
- 18:16SPEAKER_02: It's like, dude, I'm gonna have everything ready for 10 wins every single year.
- 18:21SPEAKER_02: But our success being like title containers is dependent on what quarterback I can find.
- 18:27SPEAKER_04: That's for everybody.
- 18:28SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 18:29SPEAKER_02: Because before Mendoza, they got the kid from uh University of Ohio that was okay, but not great.
- 18:36SPEAKER_02: This kid, Hoover, is awful.
- 18:40SPEAKER_02: He he misses wide open guy.
- 18:42SPEAKER_02: They would have beat Ohio State.
- 18:43SPEAKER_02: They would have had that win if he could complete any passes.
- 18:49SPEAKER_04: Yep.
- 18:50SPEAKER_04: Well, Utah with the win over Houston.
- 18:53SPEAKER_02: That's another team doing it with defense and a running quarterback.
- 18:58SPEAKER_02: Very minimal passing games.
- 19:02SPEAKER_04: No.
- 19:03SPEAKER_02: No, I think that's the end of the season.
- 19:05SPEAKER_04: Okay.
- 19:05SPEAKER_04: The holy war.
- 19:07SPEAKER_04: Yeah, so yeah, you're right.
- 19:09SPEAKER_04: Georgia plays Florida next week.
- 19:13SPEAKER_04: And uh so cocktail party.
- 19:16SPEAKER_02: And we got the big one here on how to win that.
- 19:19SPEAKER_02: I'll tell you what, man.
- 19:20SPEAKER_02: Um this is it, man.
- 19:23SPEAKER_02: Well, that's a must-win.
- 19:24SPEAKER_02: Let's just just talk about the rest.
- 19:26SPEAKER_02: Dave Dorne fired at NC State.
- 19:28SPEAKER_02: They lost to Stanford on Friday.
- 19:30SPEAKER_02: Got rid of him 14 years.
- 19:32SPEAKER_02: He's been there since 2013.
- 19:35SPEAKER_02: So what, Dave?
- 19:38SPEAKER_02: Dave Dorn?
- 19:39SPEAKER_02: Dave Dorin.
- 19:41SPEAKER_02: You're fired.
- 19:42SPEAKER_02: Pack your shit and get out.
- 19:44SPEAKER_02: When he was hired, Maryland was still in the ACC.
- 19:48SPEAKER_04: Wow.
- 19:49SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 19:51SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
- 19:52SPEAKER_04: It is.
- 19:53SPEAKER_04: He's been there longer than I thought.
- 19:55SPEAKER_04: Yeah, 14 years, man.
- 19:56SPEAKER_04: Another Dave was fired.
- 19:57SPEAKER_02: Dave Aranda.
- 20:00SPEAKER_02: Hey, Baylor.
- 20:00SPEAKER_02: Come on, Baylor.
- 20:01SPEAKER_02: Come get our guy.
- 20:03SPEAKER_02: I'll be first.
- 20:04SPEAKER_02: My put my name first on the letter of recommendation, dude.
- 20:07SPEAKER_02: He's he's great.
- 20:08SPEAKER_02: We love him.
- 20:09SPEAKER_02: Turn you guys around.
- 20:11SPEAKER_02: Would they actually think of that?
- 20:13SPEAKER_02: No, I think if it, you know what?
- 20:15SPEAKER_02: You know who I see whose name I'm because they apparently they want an offensive guy with roots in Texas.
- 20:21SPEAKER_02: And there's a little offensive coordinator with a butthole on the side of his face down in Coral Gables that is making some noise.
- 20:29SPEAKER_02: Probably going to win the Broils Award this year for the top assistant coach in football.
- 20:35SPEAKER_02: And you know, he he's a guy, man, 49 years old.
- 20:38SPEAKER_02: He's a guy teams are looking at.
- 20:40SPEAKER_02: So you could see Shannon Dawson getting the nod there.
- 20:43SPEAKER_02: But you know, there's there's a bunch of other guys.
- 20:46SPEAKER_02: They're not coming after Mike Norvell.
- 20:48SPEAKER_02: And I doubt Mike Norvell would take it.
- 20:50SPEAKER_02: He'd be a moron.
- 20:51SPEAKER_04: I'm just gonna sit here.
- 20:52SPEAKER_02: I'm gonna sit here and force him to pay me every goddamn penny that they owe me.
- 20:56SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 20:57SPEAKER_02: But please try.
- 20:59SPEAKER_02: There's no excuse.
- 21:00SPEAKER_02: Dude, with the way that the rest of the schedule has materialized, you have Clemson coming in who is not good.
- 21:06SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 21:06SPEAKER_02: You have Pitt on the road that does not have a quarterback anymore.
- 21:11SPEAKER_02: Yep.
- 21:11SPEAKER_02: Their defense isn't as strong due to the transfer portal.
- 21:14SPEAKER_02: They lost guys off that defense.
- 21:17SPEAKER_02: BC, that that could arguably be your toughest conference game left.
- 21:21SPEAKER_04: I was just gonna say, do you see they put like 60 points up?
- 21:24SPEAKER_04: I know it was against Georgia Tech.
- 21:25SPEAKER_02: Right, right.
- 21:26SPEAKER_02: Who good God.
- 21:27SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they fell.
- 21:27SPEAKER_02: Well, their roster got rated.
- 21:29SPEAKER_04: Yeah, it did.
- 21:30SPEAKER_02: Faulkner left and took every bit of offensive talent they had.
- 21:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that just got gutted.
- 21:34SPEAKER_04: They did nobody left.
- 21:35SPEAKER_02: Yeah, their best linebacker, that that one kid, the undersized guy, medically retired a couple weeks ago.
- 21:43SPEAKER_02: So they're they're in shambles.
- 21:45SPEAKER_02: Um, but yeah, BC.
- 21:46SPEAKER_04: BC might be, you're right.
- 21:47SPEAKER_04: That might be the toughest game left.
- 21:49SPEAKER_02: Outside of Florida.
- 21:51SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 21:52SPEAKER_02: Florida looks I mean, they're just I'm just gonna go ahead and chalk that up to a loss.
- 21:55SPEAKER_02: But the the other four games left on your schedule, man, if you can't find a way to Win three of those, you have got they have got to make a change.
- 22:04SPEAKER_04: They're one and three, and they could finish five and three in the ACC.
- 22:07SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 22:08SPEAKER_04: I mean, they you should be able to win these four games.
- 22:11SPEAKER_04: And I think you're right, they should win three of them.
- 22:14SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 22:20SPEAKER_02: If they play like they did against Miami, just effortless.
- 22:23SPEAKER_02: Well that that's that's been the story of the last three years.
- 22:26SPEAKER_02: You know, if they would have played like they did last year against Alabama in any of the games.
- 22:31SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 22:31SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 22:32SPEAKER_02: Like if you would have it.
- 22:34SPEAKER_04: This one, man, alpha bye, night game, Han Halloween.
- 22:38unknown: Clemson.
- 22:39SPEAKER_02: With the worst offense that you're going to face last time on your schedule.
- 22:45SPEAKER_04: Endo Endoke since 2014.
- 22:47SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 22:48SPEAKER_02: So And you look like I'm serious.
- 22:50SPEAKER_02: Statistically, this is the worst offense they're going to face all season.
- 22:54SPEAKER_02: I think the crowd might it's probably gonna show up.
- 22:58SPEAKER_02: I I I would I would I would pump the brakes on that, man.
- 23:01SPEAKER_02: It's gonna be Halloween night.
- 23:03SPEAKER_02: It's probably gonna be raining.
- 23:05SPEAKER_02: Either way.
- 23:06SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 23:07SPEAKER_02: You need to win this game.
- 23:08SPEAKER_02: You've got to find a way to win it.
- 23:10SPEAKER_02: If you don't, I don't know that they're gonna fire him immediately after, but it you you have to at some point.
- 23:15SPEAKER_04: If you don't win this game, it's over.
- 23:16SPEAKER_04: Because you're gonna lose if you don't win this, you're losing to BC.
- 23:19SPEAKER_02: Right.
- 23:19SPEAKER_02: And you can't bring the guy back after another losing season.
- 23:23SPEAKER_02: No.
- 23:24SPEAKER_04: So you you you have a chance here.
- 23:32SPEAKER_04: There was no way I thought FSU had a chance of beating Pitt.
- 23:36SPEAKER_04: No.
- 23:36SPEAKER_04: Now I do.
- 23:37SPEAKER_04: No, yeah.
- 23:39SPEAKER_04: They should be favored, probably.
- 23:40SPEAKER_02: Right, because they haven't shown that they can But they haven't won a damn road game.
- 23:44SPEAKER_02: What's the thing they That's the thing?
- 23:50SPEAKER_02: You gotta win a road game because you're not beating Florida.
- 23:53SPEAKER_02: Don't even go ahead.
- 23:54SPEAKER_02: Go ahead and just don't even put that in your mind.
- 23:59SPEAKER_01: We had to go.
- 24:02SPEAKER_01: We gotta shut him.
- 24:05SPEAKER_04: We gotta get on out of here.
- 24:07SPEAKER_04: But before we go, tonight, baby, it starts.
- 24:14SPEAKER_04: Hoops, baby.
- 24:16SPEAKER_04: Florida State takes it on Charlie Ward and the Famue Rattlers on the Tuck.
- 24:23SPEAKER_04: It'll be a fun team, man.
- 24:25SPEAKER_04: Fun team.
- 24:26SPEAKER_04: I really think so.
- 24:27SPEAKER_02: I just hope they can finish the game this time.
- 24:30SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 24:31SPEAKER_04: They will, man.
- 24:32SPEAKER_04: LSU has guys, man.
- 24:33SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 24:34SPEAKER_04: That wasn't an easy win.
- 24:36SPEAKER_04: That's a tournament team.
- 24:38SPEAKER_04: They're both Auburn and LSU are both, you know.
- 24:42SPEAKER_04: But just the way he's able to replenish the roster, I have a lot of faith in Luke Laux as the coach.
- 24:50SPEAKER_04: And you buy into his pitch, you hear what he says, you know, you and that's how you got to do it here.
- 24:59SPEAKER_04: You're not gonna be able to top out the biz.
- 25:01SPEAKER_04: You gotta be able to find coaches that can develop players and sell this atmosphere as somewhere you want to go.
- 25:10SPEAKER_04: And you know what?
- 25:11SPEAKER_04: We're gonna give you a respectable offer.
- 25:13SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 25:14SPEAKER_04: You know, we're gonna give you, and then if you want to make money, you know, what you want to do is make money the next 15 years of your career.
- 25:23SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 25:24SPEAKER_04: So start here for like one to three, if we get you.
- 25:28SPEAKER_04: And I just it was so it was so compelling to listen to him, and you can see why he's been able to bring in those recruits.
- 25:35SPEAKER_04: And you know, Florida's number one.
- 25:38SPEAKER_04: I'm looking forward to that game.
- 25:39SPEAKER_04: That's coming up in a week and a half.
- 25:41SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's that's gonna be a toughie.
- 25:44SPEAKER_04: I mean, yeah, it'll be tough.
- 25:45SPEAKER_04: They'll all be tough.
- 25:46SPEAKER_04: I like that he's playing a tough schedule of the Nunko.
- 25:48SPEAKER_02: Play half of the top ten.
- 25:51SPEAKER_04: Good.
- 25:52SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
- 25:52SPEAKER_04: Good.
- 25:52SPEAKER_04: Number one, number two.
- 25:54SPEAKER_04: You have to have that strength of if even if you don't win most of the games, that's gonna bump your rating.
- 26:01SPEAKER_04: Right.
- 26:01SPEAKER_04: Well, I mean, you lose those, it keeps you from losing to a shitty team.
- 26:04SPEAKER_04: Exactly.
- 26:05SPEAKER_04: And it's gonna just teach you something, but I think they'll have something for for they're just deep, man.
- 26:11SPEAKER_04: They're deep.
- 26:12SPEAKER_04: Rand kick.
- 26:14SPEAKER_04: They can score, they have size.
- 26:16SPEAKER_04: I think getting steam back really was a difference, maker.
- 26:21SPEAKER_04: Like, I mean big time because he's such a leader out there on defense.
- 26:26SPEAKER_04: It's another body with a right place, right time.
- 26:29SPEAKER_04: I'm looking forward to it.
- 26:30SPEAKER_04: I can't wait to watch it.
- 26:32SPEAKER_04: We'll react to it, and we'll pick next week's games.
- 26:34SPEAKER_04: Next time, right here on the North Florida Sports Network.
- 26:52SPEAKER_00: You gotta give us a shot, you know what you're doing.
