Speaker 3: Fairly. Chip Our Sports Talk Jason Grenelius, Jared Hicks in
1:38
Speaker 3: on a wonderful Thursday afternoon.
1:41
Speaker 8: Kids.
1:42
Speaker 3: There was also a time even uh after everybody started
1:47
Speaker 3: getting stuff up, but you couldn't call people until after.
1:52
Speaker 3: So it was originally nine p four nights and weekends,
1:56
Speaker 3: and then at one point you could pay for seven.
2:00
Speaker 8: Moved it up to eight. Yes, but yeah, like you
2:02
Speaker 8: said you could pay for you could.
2:03
Speaker 3: Pay for seven on your plan and then yeah, okay
2:07
Speaker 3: because it were you reminded me of that when you
2:09
Speaker 3: started talking about long distance.
2:10
Speaker 8: Yes, yeah, okay, uh oh, we were talking about long
2:13
Speaker 8: distance in the break because my girls asked what was
2:16
Speaker 8: toll free, so we had to go down that whole
2:18
Speaker 8: rabbit hole. Folks, you there's some of you who will
2:23
Speaker 8: remember this, but I think most of us won't. And
2:25
Speaker 8: it's crazy to think about it in this day and
2:26
Speaker 8: age when we really don't call each other anymore we
2:29
Speaker 8: text each other. You used to have to pay not
2:32
Speaker 8: for the ability, not only for the ability to text,
2:35
Speaker 8: but to s Yeah, per text, you would pay. I
2:39
Speaker 8: believe my initial plan was like five cents per text.
2:43
Speaker 3: Mine was mine was someone sense of text.
2:46
Speaker 8: Folks understand this kind of like tea in a restaurant,
2:51
Speaker 8: when you're paying for three dollars for tea despite the
2:54
Speaker 8: fact the unit costs for that glass t is like
2:56
Speaker 8: point oh five cents. Yes, by the way, that's about
3:00
Speaker 8: what it costs cost with air quotes to text. Again,
3:06
Speaker 8: companies were making handover phis. But that also was kind
3:09
Speaker 8: of that's kind of what forced you to actually call people,
3:12
Speaker 8: just like it's gonna cost me five cents to tell
3:14
Speaker 8: them like or O m W.
3:17
Speaker 3: I used to get something. I'm like, quit texting me
3:19
Speaker 3: and just call And now I'm the exact opposite. Why
3:22
Speaker 3: are you calling?
3:23
Speaker 6: Send me?
3:24
Speaker 3: But no, yeah, my my plane. I remember this when
3:27
Speaker 3: I first started, because I was like, who's gonna text?
3:29
Speaker 3: But it was two hundred free texts a month ten
3:33
Speaker 3: cents of text after that. Can you imagine how like
3:36
Speaker 3: what your phone bill would be today just between you
3:40
Speaker 3: and I when we getting getting ready to do a show,
3:43
Speaker 3: and it was more like if do not try to
3:47
Speaker 3: send a picture by text back then, by the.
3:51
Speaker 8: Way, if you we were talking about how painful it
3:53
Speaker 8: was for a song to download pictures on flip.
3:57
Speaker 3: Oh my good lord, that was that was something as weird.
4:02
Speaker 3: Like again, it is one of the things that if
4:04
Speaker 3: you thought we were saying, get off of our lawn
4:06
Speaker 3: just about like sports stuff. Do not get me started
4:10
Speaker 3: on phone usage. And do you do the girls have
4:13
Speaker 3: did the girls have a phone yet, Wesley does?
4:17
Speaker 8: I'm gonna tell you this, Peyton. I think Peyton either
4:21
Speaker 8: has talked with enough girls at summer camp or she
4:25
Speaker 8: she is obviously smart enough. She's doing everything in her
4:29
Speaker 8: power to make it a point that it would.
4:34
Speaker 3: Just be easier if I had a phone.
4:36
Speaker 8: That way, I'm not using your phone or your iPad
4:39
Speaker 8: to talk to my friends who are calling texting.
4:44
Speaker 3: It.
4:45
Speaker 8: I mean, it's it's the same strategy I used when
4:48
Speaker 8: I wanted to get a car, and so I got
4:49
Speaker 8: a job and I kept using parents vehicles, and it
4:53
Speaker 8: just it just.
4:54
Speaker 3: Makes this you might as well just give me give
4:56
Speaker 3: me in my own so this week or actually, sorry,
4:59
Speaker 3: the last time that Jared ro on, we got onto
5:02
Speaker 3: a rank that we have been going on about for
5:05
Speaker 3: a while now as far as preseason ranking rankings and
5:09
Speaker 3: what that actually means and the longer term ramifications of
5:13
Speaker 3: how that looks when you start getting into the college
5:16
Speaker 3: football playoff rankings, to which, and you make a good point,
5:19
Speaker 3: there's absolutely no way that those thirteen people when they
5:23
Speaker 3: go in the room can't take preseason or regular rankings
5:27
Speaker 3: as we get into the week four now rankings into effect,
5:29
Speaker 3: because as you said, they use a ranked win as
5:34
Speaker 3: a criteria for how to weight some of those.
5:36
Speaker 8: Games they all end Also for the teams they want
5:40
Speaker 8: to do this for, they will use a ranked loss
5:42
Speaker 8: as a quality loss as opposed to loss a hurtful loss,
5:48
Speaker 8: which I'm sorry, if you lose to a team by
5:54
Speaker 8: in the case of one of the teams we're going
5:56
Speaker 8: to reference here by over twenty, it really doesn't matter
6:00
Speaker 8: if they were ranked or unranked, should you lost by
6:02
Speaker 8: three scores.
6:05
Speaker 3: So, Jared and I actually have data now to go
6:09
Speaker 3: over this. So we have the preseason poll that came out, which.
6:12
Speaker 8: So what you're saying is Jason and Jared found out, Yes.
6:17
Speaker 3: So we have to And so the preseason poll, and
6:19
Speaker 3: like that team a couple of miles to the south
6:22
Speaker 3: and east was ranked number one. But in the day
6:25
Speaker 3: so the west, yes, southwest the preseason poll. Of that
6:29
Speaker 3: top twenty five, we have four teams that dropped significantly
6:34
Speaker 3: and we have seven separate teams out of that that
6:39
Speaker 3: are out completely, that have dropped out of the top
6:42
Speaker 3: twenty five completely.
6:44
Speaker 8: In just three weeks. Yes, all right, I want to
6:46
Speaker 8: go back to what you brought up. You go back
6:50
Speaker 8: to the preseason huh, and look at how many first
6:54
Speaker 8: place votes teams got. So going into this year, Texas
6:59
Speaker 8: got twenty five for place votes, Penn State got twenty
7:02
Speaker 8: three first place votes, Ohio State got eleven, Clason got four,
7:06
Speaker 8: Georgia got one, Notre Dame got zero despite the fact
7:10
Speaker 8: they were ranked six, and then Oregon got one at seven. Yes,
7:14
Speaker 8: flip to this going into going into week four. So
7:18
Speaker 8: this is after the results of week three in the
7:21
Speaker 8: ap top twenty five, Penn State fifty five first place votes.
7:26
Speaker 8: In Ohio State, Penn State only has five.
7:30
Speaker 3: Yes, and Ohio State got all of those because.
7:34
Speaker 8: Why because they they they eat Texas and the first
7:37
Speaker 8: week in the first week by a touchdown. Now neither
7:44
Speaker 8: team looked that great, and we talked about it.
7:46
Speaker 3: We were out here, We're.
7:47
Speaker 8: Like that was a it was an ugly game to
7:50
Speaker 8: watch if.
7:50
Speaker 3: Neither of those two teams looked like top five teams.
7:52
Speaker 8: No, they don't. And since then, Ohio State has not
7:56
Speaker 8: playing played a ranked opponent. In fact, I don't even
7:58
Speaker 8: think they have played a power opponents in that period
8:01
Speaker 8: of time. Penn State, same story, They're undefeated, have yet
8:07
Speaker 8: to play anyone, although I believe they have Oregon in
8:09
Speaker 8: two weeks and that's going to kind of be their
8:11
Speaker 8: first test. But this kind of goes back to what
8:13
Speaker 8: we were taught. We've kind of the thesis of this argument,
8:17
Speaker 8: and we'll dive in more. Especially for the teams who
8:19
Speaker 8: have dropped. It is virtually impossible for the vast majority
8:25
Speaker 8: of AP voters to have good functional knowledge on all
8:31
Speaker 8: college football teams to make an assessment to say these
8:35
Speaker 8: are the twenty five best teams in the country going
8:39
Speaker 8: into the year.
8:40
Speaker 3: As we have talked about, and as we even went
8:42
Speaker 3: over to start the show about with where the portal
8:45
Speaker 3: is and then this day and era of nil and
8:48
Speaker 3: again like they've taken out the spring transfer windle, but
8:52
Speaker 3: it was their last year, so they got there were
8:54
Speaker 3: teams that had significant changes after the after their spring game,
8:59
Speaker 3: and so they didn't You don't know what these guys like.
9:02
Speaker 3: Even if you see people coming in, they're not those
9:05
Speaker 3: guys that came in after the spring transfer window. Didn't practice.
9:08
Speaker 3: They were just doing offseason football, right. You know.
9:12
Speaker 8: The strongest case to me in regards to this argument
9:16
Speaker 8: that we have is last year and the fact that
9:18
Speaker 8: you go into the season Michigan State is your reigning
9:21
Speaker 8: national champion. Michigan, Michigan. That's what said.
9:24
Speaker 3: You said State, But that's fine.
9:25
Speaker 8: I'm sorry, Michigan, Michigan is your reigning national champion. They're
9:28
Speaker 8: head coach is gone, a number of their key members
9:31
Speaker 8: of the coaching staff has gone, virtually everyone on their
9:34
Speaker 8: defense and their starting quarterback gone. That team was completely
9:40
Speaker 8: different than the one that just won a national championship.
9:42
Speaker 8: But they go into the year ranked number five.
9:46
Speaker 3: Yep.
9:48
Speaker 8: But every seemingly, everyone including us lay people who get
9:54
Speaker 8: to quote unquote play radio, this is this team. There
10:00
Speaker 8: is no way this team is the fifth best team
10:02
Speaker 8: in the country at the start of the year. So
10:04
Speaker 8: why are you ranking them that high? You know, but
10:07
Speaker 8: you should know.
10:08
Speaker 3: That if you don't, then you don't then you shouldn't
10:10
Speaker 3: be a voter.
10:11
Speaker 8: And so I'm gonna take a little side step right
10:14
Speaker 8: now because i know there are a uh, this is
10:18
Speaker 8: kind of starting to pop up because you're kind of
10:19
Speaker 8: you're seeing it on the social media platforms where people
10:23
Speaker 8: are like going viterally going after AP voters for some
10:29
Speaker 8: of their votes. Folks, stop, please stop, Okay, there there
10:37
Speaker 8: is enough to are you to let me say this
10:41
Speaker 8: reasonably and sensibly. Are you about when it comes.
10:44
Speaker 3: To sports, which is what we're doing right now?
10:46
Speaker 8: Exactly, We're just you, don't we You do not have
10:49
Speaker 8: to make it personal, and you do not have to
10:50
Speaker 8: take it anything beyond that. Nope, yes it is. We are.
10:56
Speaker 8: You are well within your rights to question why you
10:59
Speaker 8: you vote certain way. And here's the deal, and this
11:03
Speaker 8: is being honest. No one's able to watch all these games.
11:07
Speaker 8: Most of the time. You're looking at box scores, you're
11:09
Speaker 8: leading reviews. This is kind of my working theory that
11:12
Speaker 8: I've been building up. It's basically a giant game of
11:16
Speaker 8: telephone going into the year, where one person writes an
11:20
Speaker 8: analysis of a team and another person reads that takes
11:25
Speaker 8: it as gospel. That's the stuff they start regurgitating, and
11:29
Speaker 8: it just keeps going and going and going. And that's
11:31
Speaker 8: how you come into a year saying that Texas is
11:36
Speaker 8: not only the number one team, but they have a
11:38
Speaker 8: generational quarterback who is already the preseason Heisman favorite despite
11:44
Speaker 8: the fact he had started less than three games and
11:47
Speaker 8: played I think a total of what thirteen quarterses. I mean,
11:55
Speaker 8: so and on our ting either because thank you, because
12:00
Speaker 8: who else were the preseason favorites for the Heisman yep
12:04
Speaker 8: Kate Clubnick clake k Clubnick at Clemson and Newsmyer at LSU.
12:09
Speaker 8: And what have those two quarterbacks done in the first
12:12
Speaker 8: three weeks? They have looked as bad, if not worse.
12:15
Speaker 3: Yes, And so that's where we are of just trying
12:18
Speaker 3: to feel like how we cannot, for the life of us,
12:21
Speaker 3: completely understand how this is going. Because again, one of
12:24
Speaker 3: the ones that you and I have talked about now
12:26
Speaker 3: multiple times, whether they're on air off, the opposite of
12:30
Speaker 3: the teams that we talked about that have ever fallen
12:32
Speaker 3: significantly or fallen all the way out is a team
12:35
Speaker 3: like Florida State that beat and give them credit for
12:39
Speaker 3: beating Alabama, they had a lot of but this is
12:41
Speaker 3: a team that was not only not ranked in the
12:45
Speaker 3: top twenty five, they weren't receiving votes, to which Jared
12:48
Speaker 3: and I looked at, that's like the first the top
12:50
Speaker 3: thirty five schools correct. And they jumped in after that
12:54
Speaker 3: win against Alabama to what do we say, fifteen.
12:56
Speaker 8: Fourteen, fourteen, they've completely unranked to number fourteen.
13:00
Speaker 3: And now they are all the way up to number.
13:02
Speaker 8: Seven at two and oh, by the way, yes, so
13:07
Speaker 8: they beat Alabama. They beat Alabama, and then they played
13:10
Speaker 8: some directional either in FCS or FBS school which granted
13:15
Speaker 8: they put up seventy some odd points, but again against
13:18
Speaker 8: an inferior opponent. What what do we what do you
13:23
Speaker 8: handicap that at thirty thirty to forty points against against
13:27
Speaker 8: a you know, a mid tier Power five team? Again,
13:32
Speaker 8: you you ap. Voters did not believe Florida State, who
13:37
Speaker 8: finished the twenty twenty four season at ten dad, was
13:42
Speaker 8: worthy enough to even receive.
13:44
Speaker 3: Vote a single not an angle vote, because again, if
13:46
Speaker 3: you don't know how the voting goes, the first place
13:49
Speaker 3: to vote gets twenty five points. The a if you
13:51
Speaker 3: want to rank a team number twenty five, that gets
13:53
Speaker 3: you one point, so it's inversely were inversely numbered that way,
13:57
Speaker 3: but nobody even thought they like gave them a point,
14:01
Speaker 3: and to start this season, nobody thought anything of them.
14:03
Speaker 3: And now two weeks in, after going too to zero,
14:06
Speaker 3: they are now the number seven team in the country.
14:09
Speaker 3: After again, I don't want to take away from the
14:11
Speaker 3: Alabama victory, buterious, but.
14:14
Speaker 8: I mean, you say that, what has Alabama shown got
14:19
Speaker 8: nothing because in their two games since then they've played
14:24
Speaker 8: nobody's they put up big points. But again it's not
14:27
Speaker 8: hard for a power A team, obviously with the talent
14:32
Speaker 8: that Alabama was able to amass, which by the way,
14:35
Speaker 8: was the AP's argument for why they should be ranked
14:38
Speaker 8: eighth to start the year, to then get thoroughly dominated
14:42
Speaker 8: in game one and then you dropped. They dropped going
14:46
Speaker 8: from week one to week two, they dropped thirteen I
14:50
Speaker 8: think thirteen spots, yes, to twenty one, and now they're
14:53
Speaker 8: back up to number fourteen.
14:55
Speaker 3: Yeah, after having played nobody, absolutely nobody.
15:00
Speaker 8: And again the College Football Playoff Committee claims they do
15:04
Speaker 8: not take these rankings into your cup, or more importantly,
15:07
Speaker 8: that they are only a small component in their analysis,
15:10
Speaker 8: except for the fact they use quality wins, quality losses,
15:15
Speaker 8: wins against ranked opponents, losses against ranked opponents as part
15:19
Speaker 8: of their criteria.
15:20
Speaker 5: It is.
15:23
Speaker 8: It's a hypocrisy at its finest, and again it's based
15:28
Speaker 8: on flawed logic. Because let's go to our most recent
15:33
Speaker 8: example of a ranked team that dropped completely out of
15:35
Speaker 8: the top twenty five after this week, and I would
15:38
Speaker 8: argue this was probably the most surprising outcome for all
15:41
Speaker 8: this pass from the weekend in college football, and that
15:44
Speaker 8: is South Carolina getting thoroughly throttled by the three and
15:48
Speaker 8: zero Vanderbilt Commodores. And I meant, and I'm sorry, I'm
15:52
Speaker 8: meant to have the boat horn ready to play anytime
15:55
Speaker 8: we say Vanderbilt, we got to have a boat horn play.
15:58
Speaker 8: But South care Carolina starts the year at number thirteen.
16:02
Speaker 8: They win Week one very impressively, they get moved up
16:06
Speaker 8: to number ten, they have a bye week, and during
16:11
Speaker 8: that bye week, Florida State actually jumps from fourteen to
16:15
Speaker 8: ten and pushes South Carolina down one spot to eleven,
16:19
Speaker 8: which I thought this was kind of one of the
16:22
Speaker 8: sacred things that if a team's on a bye they
16:25
Speaker 8: should they shouldn't move you down. Didn't get worse because
16:28
Speaker 8: you didn't play, because you didn't play. But don't be
16:31
Speaker 8: surprised if we see that happen to our school this
16:33
Speaker 8: week because we're on a bye. It may not be
16:35
Speaker 8: the worst thing, because I don't want I want expectations
16:38
Speaker 8: to remain calm. But then they get beat by a
16:44
Speaker 8: two and zero Vanderbilt team, which, by the way, if
16:46
Speaker 8: we're going to use criteria of how did you do
16:48
Speaker 8: last year? There, no, they're still rolling.
16:53
Speaker 3: And they should have had some better they should have
16:55
Speaker 3: had better recognition earlier.
16:57
Speaker 8: Exactly, So you got beat Equality team, you got dominated
17:01
Speaker 8: by Equality team. You also unfortunately lose your starting to
17:04
Speaker 8: quarterback in the process, and the number eleven team in
17:08
Speaker 8: the country off that loss drops completely out of the
17:12
Speaker 8: top twenty five. So ap voters, what is your what?
17:17
Speaker 8: What is your post mortem diagnosis? Were you wrong about
17:21
Speaker 8: South Carolina coming into the year? Were you wrong about
17:23
Speaker 8: South Carolina weeks one and two and three? Or are
17:30
Speaker 8: you did you not adequately evaluate vanderbremy that's I guess
17:35
Speaker 8: those are the answers I want, because that's what drives
17:39
Speaker 8: me nuts. If you thought a team was good enough
17:41
Speaker 8: to be ranked preseason and then move up off one win.
17:46
Speaker 8: Does one loss really necessitate taking them all the way out?
17:50
Speaker 8: And to that point, if you have two losses, how
17:54
Speaker 8: are you still in the top twenty five? And more importantly,
17:57
Speaker 8: how are you ranked above a team that's three and zero.
18:00
Speaker 8: I'm going to talk about the Golden Domers exactly, or
18:03
Speaker 8: we can talk about the Golden Domers.
18:05
Speaker 3: Oh no, But that's the thing because just to wrap
18:08
Speaker 3: up when we're talking about Vanderbilt, like so is if
18:12
Speaker 3: you think that there, yes, if you think South Carolina,
18:17
Speaker 3: I saw him put porking on putting that up. If
18:19
Speaker 3: you think South Carolina and I can take into consideration,
18:22
Speaker 3: they have lost their star quarterback and they got it.
18:24
Speaker 3: So if you think South Carolina is no longer a
18:27
Speaker 3: top twenty five team, okay, I'll grant you that, because
18:29
Speaker 3: they did lose their starting quarterback and just got beat thoroughly.
18:33
Speaker 3: Even if Vanderbilt is now three and oh, there we go.
18:38
Speaker 3: Even if Vanderbilt is now three and oh, who has
18:42
Speaker 3: Vanderbilt beat exactly?
18:44
Speaker 8: Yeah?
18:45
Speaker 3: For that for them to not be the twentieth ranked
18:47
Speaker 3: team in the country because they haven't played anybody either,
18:50
Speaker 3: you were giving them credit for beating a team that
18:53
Speaker 3: you no longer think is good.
18:54
Speaker 8: And that's you know, and that's why I like when
18:57
Speaker 8: we get towards the end of the year and we start,
19:01
Speaker 8: even in the twelve team playoff system, you start jock,
19:05
Speaker 8: you start trying to jockey in your arguments for like
19:07
Speaker 8: teams nine through twelve, and you start talking about, well,
19:10
Speaker 8: we had three ranked wins. Yeah, where are those teams
19:13
Speaker 8: ranked where they're now? You know, just all of that
19:18
Speaker 8: really becomes ultimately critical because I have, I mean, South Carolina.
19:24
Speaker 8: Coming into this year, South Carolina was one of the
19:25
Speaker 8: teams I was worried about a beating, and I'm still
19:28
Speaker 8: not completely off of that perch. I don't know how
19:31
Speaker 8: they're going to look with a new quarter with a
19:34
Speaker 8: new quarterback, but I don't put it past shame being
19:37
Speaker 8: to at least get things kind of back on track
19:39
Speaker 8: at least at some point. But once now that you've
19:42
Speaker 8: taken them out of the top twenty five, even if
19:45
Speaker 8: we beat them, that's not we don't. We no longer
19:49
Speaker 8: have a quality win against a ranked opponent because of
19:53
Speaker 8: conceivably one loss against the team that you apparently didn't
19:57
Speaker 8: evaluate effectively enough. Because now you have I'm ranked in
20:00
Speaker 8: the top twenty.
20:01
Speaker 3: Exactly, and so that'll be that for us. And again,
20:03
Speaker 3: I obviously South Carolina was one of those games that's
20:07
Speaker 3: very worried about. I'm always I cannot stand when we
20:10
Speaker 3: play Auburn. Oh God, cannot stand when we play Auburn either.
20:14
Speaker 3: Glad we've at least got a by going into that game,
20:17
Speaker 3: but cannot stand when we play Auburn.
20:19
Speaker 8: I like the I will tell you this. I like
20:21
Speaker 8: the fact we were playing them early. Do not like
20:23
Speaker 8: playing them late. Like I do like the fact we're
20:26
Speaker 8: playing at home. I do not like the fact it's
20:29
Speaker 8: a two thirty kick unless you know fingers crossed Max,
20:32
Speaker 8: do your foodoo magic and get a nice fall front
20:35
Speaker 8: to come through, because that, I mean, maybe that works
20:39
Speaker 8: for our favor, but I know the the planes of
20:42
Speaker 8: Auburn can get humid and sweaty and hot too, so
20:45
Speaker 8: that they'll be used to playing in that. But yeah, that,
20:48
Speaker 8: I mean, that's a game that can be very problematically.
20:50
Speaker 3: And the reason why I bring that up is because
20:51
Speaker 3: you know who wasn't ranked to start the season, Auburn,
20:54
Speaker 3: know who's ranked now Auburn, and those are the things
20:56
Speaker 3: like now it can help us, And I know you
20:58
Speaker 3: mentioned that mentioned the the shiny Golden Domers of Notre Dame,
21:02
Speaker 3: but like, yes, can they went out more than likely? Yes,
21:08
Speaker 3: they absolutely can, and that'll put them at eight and
21:10
Speaker 3: two and it'll they'll probably still be highly ranked. But
21:13
Speaker 3: like right now, what is Notre Dame and nobody know?
21:18
Speaker 3: Like they've they've they're zero and too. They had us
21:20
Speaker 3: coming off of by so that was knock on we
21:23
Speaker 3: I'm glad we took the victory with that, but.
21:25
Speaker 8: Like, and I just want to say this as onside,
21:28
Speaker 8: and I'm sure it's been covered plenty of times. Golden
21:31
Speaker 8: Domers quick complaining about the holding at the end, because
21:34
Speaker 8: you know what, those NBC four k ultra high DEFF
21:37
Speaker 8: cameras caught on y'all's rushing touchdowns a whole bunch of
21:41
Speaker 8: holding against y'all too, but that didn't get called, So
21:45
Speaker 8: just just shut up about it. It's not an sec
21:47
Speaker 8: conspiracy holding. I mean, I hate to say this, short
21:52
Speaker 8: of pancake tackling now, holding is just so rarely called.
21:59
Speaker 8: But your point, Notre Dame's remaining schedule, they're gonna be
22:06
Speaker 8: playing a pathetic stand for Team USC which is currently
22:12
Speaker 8: ranked hilariously one position behind them, but no telling if
22:16
Speaker 8: USC will be ranked when that game comes around. Notre
22:19
Speaker 8: Dame's path is pretty easy from this standpoint when you
22:22
Speaker 8: look at their opponents, and I guess that's gonna also
22:26
Speaker 8: kind of play into our quality win over them. One
22:30
Speaker 8: more case that I want to bring up, and I
22:32
Speaker 8: know we're about to come up on the commercial. Look
22:35
Speaker 8: at Florida. Florida began the year ranked fifteen. It has
22:40
Speaker 8: been they win Week one, and it's been virtually downhill since.
22:45
Speaker 8: And they have Miami this week, which at the beginning
22:49
Speaker 8: of the year looked like an important game. It can
22:51
Speaker 8: still be a problematic game if nothing else, Miami is
22:54
Speaker 8: playing a tough in state rival. But if MYAMMI runs
23:00
Speaker 8: rough shot over the Gators, I mean, from this point forward,
23:06
Speaker 8: any any winover Florida is not going to be a
23:08
Speaker 8: feather in your cap, other than to say, well it's
23:11
Speaker 8: an SEC win.
23:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the only thing you'll be able to get
23:13
Speaker 3: for it. And I'm sorry, I'm just looking back, and
23:14
Speaker 3: I'm I shouldn't say that, because we obviously will need
23:17
Speaker 3: some some quality wins as the season goes forward, as
23:21
Speaker 3: we put our maroon caps on. But like Notre Like,
23:24
Speaker 3: just looking at Notre Dame at zero and two and
23:29
Speaker 3: ranked number twenty, like, what have they shown anybody to
23:34
Speaker 3: warrant still being ranked in the top twenty five?
23:36
Speaker 8: That it to me that's the truly baffling part, because
23:41
Speaker 8: also look at the fact, you know, Clemson is one
23:45
Speaker 8: and two and they're out at this point, I still believe,
23:54
Speaker 8: I mean, and there's no argu in. I think even
23:56
Speaker 8: the Notre Dame faithful would admit to it. They get
23:59
Speaker 8: a bias based on them being.
24:02
Speaker 3: Just being with the name that's on the front of
24:04
Speaker 3: the I.
24:05
Speaker 8: Mean, I'm looking at the remains the remainder of their
24:08
Speaker 8: schedule right now, USC is the only ranked opponent, and frankly,
24:16
Speaker 8: I don't see the I don't see Arkansas, Boise State,
24:18
Speaker 8: NC State, Boston College, Navy, Pit, Syracuse or Stanford getting
24:22
Speaker 8: ranked between now and now they playing.
24:23
Speaker 3: I can't see a single one of those teams.
24:25
Speaker 8: So Notre Dame could easily go ten and two having
24:28
Speaker 8: defeated at best one ranked opponent, and they will be
24:32
Speaker 8: able to slide in.
24:33
Speaker 3: And who even knows where what USC will be.
24:37
Speaker 8: That's my point, That's what I'm saying. They may be
24:39
Speaker 8: ranked they may not be ranked.
24:40
Speaker 3: By that point, just based on I don't know who
24:43
Speaker 3: what USC schedule is going to look like as because
24:48
Speaker 3: I mean, the the Big Ten has some brutal games
24:52
Speaker 3: that for anybody that if you're playing anybody at the
24:54
Speaker 3: top of the Big Ten.
24:57
Speaker 8: It's let's see. I mean yeah, So USC has to
25:03
Speaker 8: oh yeah, they have to play Michigan State, which by
25:05
Speaker 8: the way, that kickoff is ten pm our time, eleven
25:10
Speaker 8: pm Eastern.
25:11
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
25:13
Speaker 8: Then they have number nine Illinois, number twenty one Michigan,
25:18
Speaker 8: and number six Oregon all still on their schedule.
25:20
Speaker 3: Oregon is more than likely going to be a loss. Yeah,
25:23
Speaker 3: I think Oregon is that good. The other two they
25:25
Speaker 3: may win.
25:26
Speaker 8: They may win. I mean it. I think this weekend
25:29
Speaker 8: with Illinois and Indiana going up against each other, yeah,
25:32
Speaker 8: I think that's gonna say a lot about that mid
25:34
Speaker 8: tier in the Big Ten and kind of determine just
25:36
Speaker 8: how many spots they may ultimately end up with based
25:38
Speaker 8: on how many ranked opponents they're going to have.
25:40
Speaker 3: We're going to take a break, come back, maybe talk

Speaker 3: You buy Techaggs on his own.
30:16
Speaker 8: The lights.
30:34
Speaker 3: You like to say, rightfully, so for us music peaked in.
30:42
Speaker 8: Officially. Officially, I say ninety six. But when you look
30:46
Speaker 8: at when, especially when you look at the top one
30:51
Speaker 8: ninety six, so many of those songs actually came out
30:53
Speaker 8: in ninety five because of the way the chart system
30:57
Speaker 8: worked back then.
31:00
Speaker 3: The reason why I bring it up is because whether
31:02
Speaker 3: it's ninety five or ninety six, the ramp up to
31:05
Speaker 3: that also, oh is.
31:08
Speaker 8: Just I've I skyright. I have argued nineteen ninety to
31:13
Speaker 8: nineteen ninety six is a more transformative period in music
31:17
Speaker 8: than the nineteen sixties. Are you with me, old people?
31:23
Speaker 8: Because the thing about the sixties, well, yes, you have
31:28
Speaker 8: the British invasion and the effect of the Beatles and
31:31
Speaker 8: everything that comes from that style of songwriting. Look at
31:36
Speaker 8: all those artists and yes, you can name a few
31:39
Speaker 8: female artists, but it is largely men and is largely
31:43
Speaker 8: rock oriented. You look at ninety to ninety six, it
31:47
Speaker 8: is multiple genre and these are multi multiple genre genre.
31:51
Speaker 8: It's men and it's women. It's it's rock music, it's
31:55
Speaker 8: rap everything, it's hip hop, it's country, it's everything. To me,
31:58
Speaker 8: that period of time, there is nothing better from from
32:02
Speaker 8: a music standard back than that period.
32:04
Speaker 3: That is when like grunge music started. That is Metallica's
32:07
Speaker 3: Black album. That is like I forget some of the
32:10
Speaker 3: other like just huge rock.
32:11
Speaker 8: Out girl jam, like Red Hot Chili Peppers, I mean
32:14
Speaker 8: Red Hot Chili Peppers struggle in the eighties. They do
32:19
Speaker 8: Blood CeX, Sugar Magic in nineteen ninety, come out with
32:22
Speaker 8: Under the Bridge, and they're able to endure multiple members
32:27
Speaker 8: of their band having to go on drug rehaf during
32:29
Speaker 8: the nineties and they still do scar tissue to finish
32:32
Speaker 8: out ninety nine. Tell me, tell me just again, you
32:36
Speaker 8: can I will. I love the music from the sixties,
32:40
Speaker 8: I love the music from the seventies. I'm really I'm
32:44
Speaker 8: showing my age now, really digging yacht rock more and
32:47
Speaker 8: more seeing but there is no more transformative period of
32:52
Speaker 8: time than nineteen nineties.
32:53
Speaker 3: Nice and Jared and Night Joe because when we go
32:55
Speaker 3: like we we we kind of lean and lean heavy
32:58
Speaker 3: into hip hop and R and B from the nineties
32:59
Speaker 3: because that's just I mean, that was a.
33:00
Speaker 8: Huge but shout out to Magic.
33:02
Speaker 6: No.
33:02
Speaker 3: I was literally about to do that too, Like if
33:04
Speaker 3: you were not listening to Magic ninety seven three, you
33:06
Speaker 3: were missing out. But talking to Rob before we came
33:08
Speaker 3: in here, he was like, I don't know if like
33:10
Speaker 3: the buzz is still there. I'm like, one, I think
33:12
Speaker 3: the buzz is still there because I hear people talking
33:14
Speaker 3: about it. But also too, like if you were not
33:16
Speaker 3: get onto some Magic ninety seven three, because that.
33:19
Speaker 8: Is all, get off the streaming because all that's gonna
33:23
Speaker 8: do is keep playing the same stuff over and over
33:25
Speaker 8: and over again, because you have got to listen to
33:28
Speaker 8: some traditional over the air radio that knows how to
33:32
Speaker 8: program and play things you have not heard in a
33:36
Speaker 8: long time before.
33:37
Speaker 3: And even yes, that's the thing about it that really
33:40
Speaker 3: gets into it.
33:41
Speaker 13: Yeah, I run the Redder football games on Magic ninety
33:44
Speaker 13: seven for three and I'll show up like an hour
33:46
Speaker 13: early just to sit there.
33:47
Speaker 3: There you go, Absolutely, that is awesome quickly for at
33:52
Speaker 3: least for me, because.
33:53
Speaker 8: I was about say, you got to check out.
33:54
Speaker 3: I gotta go do my civic duty here in just
33:56
Speaker 3: a little bit. But I did want to get into
33:58
Speaker 3: a little bit of NFL with you and kind of
34:01
Speaker 3: go over like how surprising in certain circumstances this season
34:05
Speaker 3: has been with some of the team teams, including the Cowboys.
34:09
Speaker 3: I'm I'm and everybody knows I am not I am
34:12
Speaker 3: I'm and I'm not that I'm not a fan of
34:14
Speaker 3: the Cowboys. I'm not a fan of Cowboys fans.
34:16
Speaker 8: Right, So I took a lot of flak, or I
34:19
Speaker 8: took some flak for what I put out there towards
34:23
Speaker 8: the end of Sunday's game when the Cowboys defense, after
34:28
Speaker 8: Dak was able to make a meaningful touchdown drive allows
34:33
Speaker 8: Neighbors to just break again double covers and score a
34:38
Speaker 8: touchdown there at the end. Granted, Aubrey was able to
34:41
Speaker 8: kick a field goal taken in overtime, but it just
34:44
Speaker 8: is like, if there's one thing you can't do at
34:47
Speaker 8: that point, if that let him or any receiver get
34:52
Speaker 8: behind you, Like I know, the only thing prevent defense
34:55
Speaker 8: does is prevent you from winning the game. But in
34:57
Speaker 8: the NFL, you put three on the front, you put
35:00
Speaker 8: everyone deep back, and we may And this kind of
35:04
Speaker 8: goes back to why was Russell Wilson, who looked terrible
35:08
Speaker 8: in Week one, able to look like the Russell Wilson
35:12
Speaker 8: of old against the Cowboys? There was no pass rush?
35:15
Speaker 8: Why is there no pass rush? Jerry, you let your
35:20
Speaker 8: key guy go to probably the one team that's going
35:23
Speaker 8: to keep you from progressing in the playoffs at some
35:26
Speaker 8: point if you're lucky enough to make the playoffs again
35:30
Speaker 8: per your own documentary, Jerry, Oh, that was just so frustrating.
35:34
Speaker 8: And I mean, granted, you have a you have a
35:37
Speaker 8: leg in Aubrey that any team would kill.
35:39
Speaker 3: Wow for a guy basically like coming off the street. Yeah, his,
35:44
Speaker 3: I mean a soccer but not even.
35:45
Speaker 8: A soccer player went through the USFL. I mean you
35:51
Speaker 8: found value. Yes, I don't know if Jadavian Clowney is
35:56
Speaker 8: going to be able to replace Mike Carson or Parsons,
36:01
Speaker 8: but you got him on value, right. But no, if
36:06
Speaker 8: you want to talk surprising, most surprising thing up to
36:08
Speaker 8: this point, and we'll see how long it lasts Daniel
36:12
Speaker 8: Jones in Indianapolis, because I mean he was destined for
36:17
Speaker 8: backup duty, if not written off as as a bus
36:20
Speaker 8: And I think he has the highest QBR rating in
36:23
Speaker 8: the league.
36:25
Speaker 3: Yes he does. And so here's the thing, and and
36:28
Speaker 3: I think we've touched on this a couple of times,
36:29
Speaker 3: but I know everybody else does as well. Of like
36:32
Speaker 3: how one how quickly and not I mean quickly in
36:35
Speaker 3: terms of NFL NFL time frames, teams can give up
36:39
Speaker 3: on their quarterback, especially now when you're seeing whether it's
36:44
Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield, whether it could be now Daniel Jones, whether
36:48
Speaker 3: it's And I'm he was just in Minnesota last year
36:50
Speaker 3: and now he's in Seattle, and I'm.
36:51
Speaker 8: Oh, Sam, Sam Donald, Sam Donald, and.
36:54
Speaker 3: You sing and that's that was Sam Donald's like fifteen. Yeah, now,
36:57
Speaker 3: well the the Seahawks are now is fifteen. And he
37:00
Speaker 3: bounced around a little bit.
37:01
Speaker 8: I mean, well, all the hype about Minnesota going into
37:04
Speaker 8: this year is based on what saying Donald did for
37:07
Speaker 8: that last year because JJ McCarthy has played one good
37:10
Speaker 8: quarter in two games, and Minnesota by all accounts, looks
37:14
Speaker 8: like they will miss the playoffs. They just don't have anything.
37:17
Speaker 8: They don't have it.
37:18
Speaker 3: And so yeh, no, you're exactly right. Like Daniel Jones
37:20
Speaker 3: has to be the surprise of the year. And I
37:24
Speaker 3: saw but it's actually true when I saw them talking
37:26
Speaker 3: about it one morning this week, of like, how how
37:29
Speaker 3: can you as a general manager of the New York
37:32
Speaker 3: Football Giants And I'm even leaving day Ball out of
37:35
Speaker 3: this for a second, because they've got what they appear
37:37
Speaker 3: to be the quarterback that they want. They want to
37:40
Speaker 3: bring him along and you don't want to do what
37:42
Speaker 3: like the Bears do and ruin him by bringing in
37:45
Speaker 3: another cup. But how can you be the general manager
37:47
Speaker 3: of the New York Football Giants and let Saquon Barkley
37:50
Speaker 3: walk and then give all that money to Daniel Jones,
37:54
Speaker 3: to then cut him, to then see him leave and
37:56
Speaker 3: now two years later he has become everything that you
38:00
Speaker 3: thought he was going to be.
38:02
Speaker 8: Well I mean, I mean, and we talk about it
38:06
Speaker 8: another case and unfortunately for him, Cincinnati, I mean, how
38:14
Speaker 8: how can you not protect your who you're paying the most,
38:18
Speaker 8: your most prized possession and he's I mean out three months.
38:22
Speaker 8: And by the way, we need to come up with
38:24
Speaker 8: a new name for Turfy so because it doesn't sound bad,
38:27
Speaker 8: but it is. It's going to require certain to be
38:29
Speaker 8: out for three months. I mean, I saw the post.
38:34
Speaker 8: There's what like five million obast people in America and
38:37
Speaker 8: Cincinnati can't find five who can who can protect protect?
38:41
Speaker 8: But you know, I think that goes back to the
38:44
Speaker 8: greater conversation not just with Jerry and Dallas, but you know,
38:48
Speaker 8: all the the general managers or vps of operations for
38:51
Speaker 8: these football program organizations. It is not so much about
38:56
Speaker 8: just that star player. It's about the people you put
38:59
Speaker 8: around on him and how they work together, and how
39:02
Speaker 8: they function together and allows the coach to have the
39:05
Speaker 8: most capability. The big argument today is, how is this
39:10
Speaker 8: Mike McDaniel's final game coaching the Miami Dolphins because of
39:15
Speaker 8: what is expected to happen against the Buffalo Bills.
39:17
Speaker 3: Oh, they're going to get trounced.
39:18
Speaker 8: They will get they will, by all accounts, will get trounce.
39:21
Speaker 8: How much of this falls on McDaniel or how much
39:23
Speaker 8: of this falls on the GM for Miami? And I'm
39:26
Speaker 8: blanking on his name right now, but he is the
39:28
Speaker 8: longest tenured GM in the NFL to have never made
39:31
Speaker 8: the playoffs at nine years. At what point do you
39:35
Speaker 8: say it's not who's coaching the team, it's who's bringing
39:39
Speaker 8: in the talent, because Miami has shown glimmers of greatness
39:42
Speaker 8: and then they have shown kind of what we've seen
39:45
Speaker 8: this year in ineptitude. And does that really all fall
39:48
Speaker 8: on the coach or does it fall in the fact
39:50
Speaker 8: that he's just working with what you've provided with him, which, oh,
39:53
Speaker 8: by the way, you've allowed that defense to be completely
39:56
Speaker 8: decimated by trading away all your valuable talent.
40:00
Speaker 3: We've got the Rangers report coming up next, and then
40:03
Speaker 3: Jared is going to take you home. I thank him
40:05
Speaker 3: for being able to handle that last segment by himself.
40:08
Speaker 3: Like I said, I gotta go do my civic duty.
40:10
Speaker 8: If they're we appreciate you.
40:11
Speaker 3: Yes, if you want to listen to a whole lot
40:13
Speaker 3: of fun, you can turn into Channel nineteen for those
40:15
Speaker 3: of you on Suddenly.
40:18
Speaker 8: A lot of us did that last Thursday, Yes, until midnight.
40:22
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, a lot of you did. There are a
40:24
Speaker 3: lot of speakers on that. But yeah, you're listening to
40:26
Speaker 3: Chip Higher Sports are taken over by Jason and Jarrett
40:28
Speaker 3: on Sports Radio eleven fifty AM, The Zone ninety three SEVENFM.
40:32
Speaker 14: It was after a hailstorm a few years back. I
40:34
Speaker 14: needed a new roof. Yeah, I shopped around and then
40:36
Speaker 14: I found Schorlty Roofing, and boy, I'm glad I did.
40:39
Speaker 14: The folks, said Shulty, guided me every step of the way.
40:42
Speaker 14: They showed me my options. They told me what my
40:44
Speaker 14: out of pocket cost would be after insurance. They took
40:47
Speaker 14: the complication out of an otherwise very stressful situation. They
40:50
Speaker 14: took off the damage roof, put on the new roof,
40:53
Speaker 14: did all the clean up, and I had my new
40:54
Speaker 14: roof in one day.
41:03
Speaker 15: I'm Jen Nelson with your Texas Rangers report. The Rangers
41:06
Speaker 15: got swept by Houston last night and now need some

41:45
Speaker 15: Just like the first two games of the series, Houston
41:48
Speaker 15: got the offense started in the first inning with a
41:50
Speaker 15: basis loaded single from Jiner Diaz driving into runs. Texas
41:54
Speaker 15: would fight back quickly to tie it in the top
41:56
Speaker 15: of the second with an RBI double from Josh Young
41:59
Speaker 15: and an RBA single from Cody Freeman. Then Houston activated
42:03
Speaker 15: the long ball in the third inning, with Josey l.
42:05
Speaker 15: Tuovy his twenty fifth of the year, putting the Astros
42:08
Speaker 15: in front again three to two. Then the final score
42:11
Speaker 15: of the night would be in the fifth as Jeremy
42:12
Speaker 15: Pinya joined the home run party with a three hundred
42:15
Speaker 15: and forty three footer, putting the score at five to two.
42:18
Speaker 15: The Astros defense would take care of the rest. Now,
42:21
Speaker 15: the Rangers will need a good bit of help from
42:23
Speaker 15: teams facing the Red Sox, but Texas in the meantime
42:26
Speaker 15: needs to take care of business in the remaining nine games.

44:09
Speaker 13: Yeah, he's definitely punging the air right now.
44:11
Speaker 8: Yeah, but I knew he would at least appreciate what
44:15
Speaker 8: was playing during the show, and maybe this will at
44:18
Speaker 8: least get him over to city Hall in a little
44:21
Speaker 8: bit better mood. But I'm fairly certain P and Z
44:26
Speaker 8: meeting tonight will not be as near as contentious as

44:51

44:55
Speaker 8: Maroon v. Purple. It is the Tigers versus the Cougars.
44:59
Speaker 8: It is a a big time football game early in
45:02
Speaker 8: the season for both of the colle station high schools.
45:07
Speaker 8: Expected to sell out crowd. All tickets have been sold.
45:09
Speaker 3: I don't know.
45:10
Speaker 8: I'm sure they're going to try and figure out a
45:11
Speaker 8: way to do some standing room. It's going to be
45:14
Speaker 8: crazy there at the corner of Baron and Victoria, but
45:17
Speaker 8: it should be a good game. If you can't be there,
45:20
Speaker 8: be sure to listen to the WTAW sixteen to twenty

45:40

Speaker 13: M Consolidated College station game, college stations broadcast is on
45:46
Speaker 13: Maverick one hundred point nine, one hundred point nine. All right,
45:48
Speaker 13: and we got Brian here on the zone. But that's Saturday.
45:52
Speaker 8: Actually that is okay, who do they have Saturday?
45:56
Speaker 13: I'm running that one too.
45:58
Speaker 8: There you go, all right, just to kind of put
46:02
Speaker 8: a bow on NFL, and then we're gonna talk some entertainment,
46:05
Speaker 8: uh some interesting matchups this week. We're kind of gonna
46:08
Speaker 8: we're gonna start to get some divisional matchups to kind
46:12
Speaker 8: of setup where we may uh may see teams kind
46:15
Speaker 8: of jocking for those potential playoff positions. I will say this,
46:23
Speaker 8: when you look at the TV windows, the one o'clock
46:27
Speaker 8: window once again just is not that attractive.
46:32
Speaker 9: Uh.
46:32
Speaker 8: Probably the the the game that most people will be
46:35
Speaker 8: watching and unfortunately, I think in a good chunk of
46:39
Speaker 8: the country it's gonna be blacked out because of other
46:42
Speaker 8: games that are being played. Is uh the Los Angeles
46:45
Speaker 8: Rams against the Philadelphia Eagles, arguably probably two of the
46:48
Speaker 8: better teams in the NFC. Uh. Philadelphia that uh you
46:54
Speaker 8: know that that opening game against Dallas, Man that looked
46:57
Speaker 8: like we were headed for a real shootout until we
47:00
Speaker 8: got the lightning delay. And then after that both teams
47:04
Speaker 8: just came out completely flat. Didn't do it. Neither neither
47:07
Speaker 8: team was able to score from that point forward.
47:09
Speaker 3: Uh.
47:09
Speaker 8: But Philadelphia looked really good in Week two, and so
47:13
Speaker 8: this is an interesting It's an interesting matchup, like I said,
47:15
Speaker 8: because these are probably two of the top contenders for
47:18
Speaker 8: the NFC when you start talking about getting to the
47:21
Speaker 8: playoffs and getting getting to the super Bowl. On the
47:24
Speaker 8: AFC side, a lot a lot of more divisional matchups
47:30
Speaker 8: that are gonna play into divisional seeding, but nothing all
47:34
Speaker 8: that great. We're gonna get Houston v. Jacksonville, which I
47:38
Speaker 8: hate to say this. I'm Houston's defense plays really well
47:44
Speaker 8: and I have such high hopes for CJ. Stroud, But man,
47:48
Speaker 8: that is a painful offense. To watch. You you lose
47:54
Speaker 8: your two best guards in the offseason, you wait forever
47:57
Speaker 8: to try and replace some you end up replacing them
47:59
Speaker 8: kind of with bottom of the barrel and you're kind
48:01
Speaker 8: of hopeful that they're just there kind of his backup,
48:04
Speaker 8: and then they end up being the starters. But man,
48:06
Speaker 8: it's it's just not it's not pleasant to watch Houston.
48:11
Speaker 8: I have to say, I really go I default to
48:14
Speaker 8: the red zone in that one that noon or in
48:18
Speaker 8: the Eastern time zone the one o'clock block, because so
48:21
Speaker 8: many of the matchups thus far, except for this past
48:25
Speaker 8: week when you had Dallas New York, and some of
48:27
Speaker 8: the other games just aren't that aren't that intriguing For
48:32
Speaker 8: the most part, I really just want to see who
48:34
Speaker 8: scores well.
48:35
Speaker 13: Bengals Vikings is intriguing, but for the wrong reason.
48:37
Speaker 8: Exactly, h I know, I mean, God, just so Joe Burrow,
48:43
Speaker 8: it's his sixth year in the league. Effectively he's going
48:47
Speaker 8: to be out for the year. I mean, I think
48:50
Speaker 8: best case scenarios, he's back by December. When you look
48:53
Speaker 8: at it, he has spent fifty percent of his career
48:56
Speaker 8: in the By that point in time, he will have
48:58
Speaker 8: spent fifty percent of his career in the NFL injured
49:01
Speaker 8: and not playing. And this is a truly generational talent.
49:06
Speaker 8: We saw what he could do at LSU. We saw
49:08
Speaker 8: him take Cincinnati all the way to the to the
49:11
Speaker 8: super Bowl. He has the ability to be a transformative quarterback.
49:16
Speaker 8: But Cincinnati, for whatever reason, and I know it's a
49:19
Speaker 8: salary cap sport, just has not put the protection around
49:22
Speaker 8: him because he has the weapons and their defense is
49:25
Speaker 8: pretty good. That's that's part what kept him in the game.
49:29
Speaker 3: Uh.
49:29
Speaker 8: But but yeah, this this matchup with Cincinnati Minnesota, you're
49:33
Speaker 8: you're kind of watching for all the wrong reasons in Minnesota.
49:37
Speaker 8: At this point in time, Minnesota Minnesota is only a
49:39
Speaker 8: two and a half point favorite as the home team.
49:41
Speaker 8: So that basically that that is a that's a washer
49:43
Speaker 8: right there. The late game.
49:48
Speaker 13: Uh, the wouldn't it be hilarious game?
49:50
Speaker 8: Yes? Oh my goodness. Uh. I don't think when NBC
50:01
Speaker 8: in the NFL were scheduling games that they think they
50:04
Speaker 8: would have two zero in two opponents playing each other
50:08
Speaker 8: in primetime on Sunday. But that's literally what we have
50:11
Speaker 8: with Kansas City and the New York Football Giants.
50:15
Speaker 13: I'm ready to watch Russ just torch some Chiefs.
50:18
Speaker 8: I think he if he's able to do what he
50:21
Speaker 8: was able to do against Dallas, and those defenses are
50:24
Speaker 8: fairly equivalent. When you look at him, it could be
50:27
Speaker 8: a long day. And I'm not saying by no means,
50:29
Speaker 8: By no means, am I saying Patrick Mahomes is washed.
50:32
Speaker 8: He's not. But it's very apparent that without the weapons
50:36
Speaker 8: that he previously had, he's not able to do what
50:39
Speaker 8: he was able to do. He does not have a
50:41
Speaker 8: running game to support him. Travis Kelcey, I'm not saying
50:44
Speaker 8: he's distracted, but he's Travis Kelcey is older than Gronk
50:48
Speaker 8: was when Gronk retired for the first time.
50:52
Speaker 3: Wow.
50:52
Speaker 8: And so it's gonna be interesting to see. I mean,
50:55
Speaker 8: Kansas City. We were thinking the AFC West was actually
50:59
Speaker 8: gonna be the hardest. Right now it looks like the
51:01
Speaker 8: LA Chargers may be that the only competition the AFC
51:03
Speaker 8: West because the Raiders are not looking good. Denver's not
51:06
Speaker 8: looking all that good. So it may be a two
51:08
Speaker 8: horse race between Kansas City and the Chargers to see
51:12
Speaker 8: who comes out of that.
51:13
Speaker 13: And Mahomes is leading the Chiefs and rushing yards so
51:15
Speaker 13: I think on.
51:16
Speaker 8: Them like that, that is not a that's not a
51:18
Speaker 8: good stat Yeah, Monday. I think Monday's game is the
51:22
Speaker 8: game to watch. And props to ESPN forgetting this one.
51:27
Speaker 8: Detroit Baltimore because Detroit coming off the huge win against
51:31
Speaker 8: Chicago putting up fifty. Dan Campbell's showing it's not you know,
51:35
Speaker 8: without my coordinators, I'm not this is not going to
51:38
Speaker 8: be a throwaway year. And then Baltimore definitely needing to
51:43
Speaker 8: step up and show that they can win if they
51:47
Speaker 8: get in front, win with a lead, because that that's
51:49
Speaker 8: kind of been the thing going against them. Uh, that's
51:52
Speaker 8: gonna be that.
51:53
Speaker 3: That, to me, is.
51:54
Speaker 8: Probably the game of Week three, other than kind of
51:59
Speaker 8: the the Siko's committee choices about seeing what's gonna happen.
52:04
Speaker 8: All right, real quick, gonna talk to Emmys. And the
52:08
Speaker 8: reason I'm able to talk about the Emmys is Sunday
52:10
Speaker 8: Nights game between Atlanta and Minnesota just got so unwatchable.
52:14
Speaker 8: It's like I'm gonna flip over and see what's going
52:16
Speaker 8: on here. Jason and I talked during the summer about
52:22
Speaker 8: and Or, and we had such high hopes about and
52:26
Speaker 8: Or's success because of how good this season two was
52:30
Speaker 8: and we really when the Emmy nominations came out and no,
52:35
Speaker 8: none of the primary cast got acting nods. I was
52:41
Speaker 8: probably we were both disappointed, but I was a little
52:43
Speaker 8: more angry about it because I was thinking, at the
52:45
Speaker 8: very least Gwin Avieve should have gotten a Supporting Actress
52:49
Speaker 8: nomination for what she did this year. Thankfully, it did
52:54
Speaker 8: win Best Writing. I personally thought it should have won
52:59
Speaker 8: Best Drama, not because I'm a Star Wars nerd, but
53:02
Speaker 8: because if you look at the ambition this season took.
53:07
Speaker 8: The only show in recent memory that I can think
53:10
Speaker 8: of that compares is seasons one through five of Game
53:13
Speaker 8: of Thrones, and that show was able to win Best
53:17
Speaker 8: Drama every year, even when their individual actors didn't necessarily
53:20
Speaker 8: win the acting categories. And Or did that, and I
53:23
Speaker 8: just I firmly believe because it was a Star Wars property,
53:27
Speaker 8: voters opted to go with the other dramas, which, by
53:33
Speaker 8: the way, I watched the Pit. Pit's an amazing show.
53:35
Speaker 8: It's a fantastic show. To me, It's what Er was
53:39
Speaker 8: early on, but even better. I just like I say,
53:44
Speaker 8: knowing that this was the last season of van Or,
53:47
Speaker 8: because there is no season three and or gets on
53:52
Speaker 8: the ship and that's what starts Rogue one. So we
53:54
Speaker 8: know how this story ends over the next I believe
53:58
Speaker 8: it's four days in the Star Wars timeline. Would I
54:02
Speaker 8: really would have liked to have seen that get the
54:05
Speaker 8: recognition to deserve for the ambition that it took this year.
54:08
Speaker 8: From a comedy standpoint, it was no shocker that The
54:12
Speaker 8: Studio won. Studio was a hilarious show, and it really
54:19
Speaker 8: appealed to all the Emmy voters because they're in Hollywood,
54:23
Speaker 8: so they get all the inside jokes, I mean, and
54:25
Speaker 8: that's one of the reasons why I think it had
54:27
Speaker 8: the most nominations and had the most wins for any comedy.
54:33
Speaker 8: Interestingly enough, The Bear, which has kind of been the
54:37
Speaker 8: darling in the comedy category despite the fact it's clearly
54:40
Speaker 8: not a comedy, was completely shut out this year. And
54:45
Speaker 8: I actually thought this season season four was much stronger
54:48
Speaker 8: than season three, so to me, that was also kind
54:51
Speaker 8: of disappointing that it should have been in the drama category. Again,
54:55
Speaker 8: I don't know why it gets put in the comedy category,
54:57
Speaker 8: but to get completely shut out was kind of unfortunate.
55:01
Speaker 8: But again, the Studio was just too big of a
55:05
Speaker 8: monster comedy hit for anything to usurp. I will say this,
55:11
Speaker 8: I fully expected The Penguin to like sweep the limited
55:14
Speaker 8: series category just because of how ambitious it was the
55:18
Speaker 8: acting Colin Ferrell, you know, wearing all that makeup and
55:23
Speaker 8: you can't even tell that's who is under all of
55:25
Speaker 8: that to only pick up two awards. And admittedly I
55:30
Speaker 8: have not seen adolescents. I will be watching it now
55:33
Speaker 8: just to see how good it is. But I really
55:36
Speaker 8: thought The Penguin would would would fare better this year
55:40
Speaker 8: in that. But overall, nothing really surprising from from a
55:45
Speaker 8: winner standpoint, other than the fact that the Pit was
55:47
Speaker 8: able to take the major act so many of the
55:51
Speaker 8: major acting categories. Know a Wiley finally getting his his Emmy,
55:56
Speaker 8: and if you watched him in the Pit, I mean
55:58
Speaker 8: he he gave a tour to force performance that was
56:02
Speaker 8: not a redux of the John Carter character. This is
56:06
Speaker 8: a very different character. And on the one award I
56:13
Speaker 8: have to mention and it's supporting. It's a supporting actor
56:17
Speaker 8: in a limited series and it was won by fifteen
56:20
Speaker 8: year old excuse me, that is a fine Owen Cooper.
56:25
Speaker 8: Owen Cooper is the youngest Emmy winner in history. He's
56:27
Speaker 8: a fifteen year old boy. He's never acted before until
56:30
Speaker 8: this this this series.
56:32
Speaker 3: Wow.
56:34
Speaker 8: And Sydney Sweeney is the one who presented in the award.
56:37
Speaker 8: So Owen Cooper, bye, you are you are the luckiest
56:40
Speaker 8: boy this week in all of America. All right, that's
