Virginia Game Recap · Boundary Corner Podcast

• 0:51
  We never, we never splintered. We stayed together.
• 0:54
  We are still two balls with the clutch situations.
• 0:57
  They found the way today. I'm so proud, so proud to be
• 0:59
  their coach. You seem to be getting a little
• 1:01
  emotional? Why?
• 1:04
  It's my school? This is home.
• 1:08
  That's it. If somebody would have told you
• 1:11
  two weeks ago that you would be the head coach of this program,
• 1:14
  you would knock off your rival and you'd be going bowling what
• 1:17
  would you have told them? I don't believe you.
• 1:20
  Kiss me, pinch me, welcome back to the boundary Corner podcast.
• 1:27
  I'm Curtis Wilson. I'm Brian sigla, buddy.
• 1:31
  JC was emotional. After that one, buddy.
• 1:37
  We were emotional after that one, man.
• 1:40
  Yeah. Oh my God if you are a Virginia
• 1:43
  Tech fan and you did not listen to that post game.
• 1:47
  After the 29:24 went to hold onto the cup and
• 1:50
  Charlottesville. I don't know what to say because
• 1:57
  I think that's the way most of us feel.
• 2:00
  About Virginia Tech football. Yep.
• 2:03
  It's, you know, I listen to it again and yeah, I got a little
• 2:08
  allergies going, but it's a little, it's, as again, hear him
• 2:13
  say this is my school. Yep.
• 2:19
  This is home. It definitely hit different and
• 2:24
  I mean, you you can see how much it means.
• 2:29
  And I think that's the big thing that, you know, we kind of get
• 2:33
  out there and that we want to that makes us unique and makes
• 2:37
  being a part of this fan base unique.
• 2:39
  Is that when somebody really cares, you see it?
• 2:43
  Yes, you did. And p.m. people that have been a
• 2:45
  part of it, they feel it and they show it.
• 2:48
  And you can see that all over JC's face.
• 2:51
  And we've seen it since, you know, he was named interim, head
• 2:54
  coach. I mean, it's been it's been
• 2:56
  emotional for him to be in this position and it definitely I
• 3:02
  think was was big for him to go out capture win against a rival
• 3:08
  and get a team that a lot of people are written off to a bowl
• 3:13
  game, give those seniors and those guys that are stepping
• 3:16
  away from the program out of the season, one more chance to go
• 3:19
  out there together and get it done.
• 3:21
  Done. So, that's big you.
• 3:23
  Damn right. It is.
• 3:23
  And it's, and it was such an emotional game of highs and lows
• 3:28
  good, and bad's. And when you come out with the
• 3:31
  win and then hearing that and you said it.
• 3:35
  Yeah. When you're connected to this
• 3:37
  program, it's different in it hits different.
• 3:41
  And when you're someone of a higher age, whose follow the
• 3:44
  program 20-plus years, you remember the name?
• 3:47
  JC price. We Were Young adolescents when
• 3:51
  he played for this team. Yep, I swear to God.
• 3:56
  Robbie Compton's, his brother somehow.
• 3:58
  I don't know, I just did. Yeah, yeah, yeah, go back and
• 4:03
  check out the going camping. Yeah, episode with Robert
• 4:06
  Compton and see if you don't see some similarities between our
• 4:10
  good buddy and JC price. They're so what it was and it's
• 4:16
  not just, you know, facial recognition, it's Kind of the
• 4:19
  mannerisms how they talk. I mean, there's a whole lot of
• 4:22
  things there that that, that are similarities.
• 4:24
  So shout out to Robbie, come to there.
• 4:28
  He might be listening tonight. He might not depends on.
• 4:31
  If then his part of North Carolina, he got internet
• 4:35
  signal. If it's a cloudy night.
• 4:37
  Yeah, it is the satellite internet bringing in enough
• 4:41
  juice for into stream. This bad boy.
• 4:45
  We don't know. Well y'all, of course we are
• 4:48
  going to talk about The game we are going to talk about the
• 4:51
  coaching Domino's that held today in a little while.
• 4:54
  We're going to talk about our picks, good weekends for both of
• 4:57
  us but let's first of all, I had to wear this shirt tonight.
• 5:02
  I will state the Commonwealth cup stays home and brown.
• 5:08
  We're going to start with the defense and, you know, Brown
• 5:12
  wrote it out here, on our notes, it was a tale of two halves.
• 5:17
  And let's start first half, literally the worst of times.
• 5:21
  And then the best of times, I mean, in the first half, they
• 5:27
  look like an Unstoppable Force, they were going on drives.
• 5:30
  They were scorned, they put Twenty One points up in the
• 5:32
  first half. If you had told me or Brian.
• 5:36
  We both put the game in the 30s. If you told us after the first
• 5:40
  half, this game was going to end in the 20s.
• 5:42
  I would have said you you're out of your damn mind, we can't stop
• 5:46
  them. They Can't stop us.
• 5:47
  It's going to be a race to probably 38 or 40.
• 5:50
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 5:52
  I mean, I tweeted towards the end of the first half.
• 5:54
  I was like, you know, hope you all took the over, but it makes
• 5:59
  the under yeah points. Who would have thought.
• 6:04
  I mean, the way things were going, I was like, yeah I know
• 6:07
  Pace about Midway through the second quarter kind of slow down
• 6:10
  a little bit points for still being scored, but the pace of
• 6:13
  them slow down and then as we got into the second half Points
• 6:18
  are hard to come by and but let's look a little bit more
• 6:22
  about UVA offense. I'll be Armstrong was absolutely
• 6:25
  dealing in the first half. Yes.
• 6:28
  He he was hitting all of his spots, guys were open.
• 6:32
  Guys were getting away from coverages.
• 6:35
  Guys were exploiting some mismatches, particularly Jelani
• 6:40
  Woods. He was dominating and yeah he
• 6:45
  was he was Creating some really bad matchups for us in the
• 6:50
  secondary. The one that stands out is the
• 6:55
  one that he scored the touchdown on Tisdale was late.
• 6:59
  Getting out there covering strong made a ol, a business
• 7:04
  decision, Tuesday will checked up.
• 7:06
  It was definitely a nobody wanted.
• 7:09
  A part of woods going full steam into the end zone.
• 7:12
  Now, they did not in. That was one of them where I
• 7:14
  think this is a fanbase. We saw that.
• 7:17
  Early on, you know, when that play happened, you know, that
• 7:22
  was their first score of the game.
• 7:24
  Just, it felt like effort, right?
• 7:28
  It felt like the effort on that particular play was just gone
• 7:31
  because Tisdale had an angle and if Tisdale goes at full speed,
• 7:35
  we know, Tisdale can go out. I think he knocks him out short
• 7:39
  order. He is very close.
• 7:40
  Its plant have to reheat after reach it out at a pretty epic
• 7:43
  way. Yeah, and strong the same way he
• 7:46
  was going to have Make the play. And it was probably going to be
• 7:49
  a collision If he if he gets the perfect tackle he probably stops
• 7:53
  him. But I think that early on.
• 7:56
  I think us as fans we saw and I was just like, man this this
• 8:01
  they don't look fired up, they don't look in it.
• 8:04
  And it showed in the in the you know, more the first quarter as
• 8:09
  we got into the second quarter, it started changing a little
• 8:13
  bit, right? I mean, you know, The big piece
• 8:18
  you can say is that interception that happened in the second
• 8:24
  quarter. You know we're down they are
• 8:27
  driving and it looks like we're about to go down two scores and
• 8:31
  then all of a sudden, you know, Take a daily makes one hell of a
• 8:41
  play to get that interception. Yep, he made a hell of a play
• 8:47
  there. I'll Tell You artist did a good
• 8:50
  job of redirecting on that which created the situation where
• 8:54
  Armstrong had to throw it wider than he wanted to daily stepped
• 8:58
  up, made play. And now, you know, what was
• 9:02
  looking like a situation, Those About to get dire.
• 9:05
  You're now we're able to settle down a little bit.
• 9:10
  Bring things back into kind of more of that dog fight that we
• 9:13
  were looking to get into instead of the potential.
• 9:18
  Your greatest show on Turf that they were trying to pull in the
• 9:20
  first quarter in early in the second quarter there.
• 9:23
  Yeah, early in the second quarter specially first quarter
• 9:25
  going into the second quarter. We could not get off the field,
• 9:29
  we can, I stop them third, they got in the Red Zone, was a
• 9:32
  guaranteed touchdown, but something Brian that.
• 9:36
  You had mentioned in. This is where I'm going to kind
• 9:38
  of bring up. The first of our points were
• 9:42
  getting back to the coverage that has shown success.
• 9:45
  Cover Through the quarters, makes it a little man here and
• 9:48
  there. Their drives in the first half
• 9:51
  were 10, 11, 10, and 6. That is a even the six of six
• 9:56
  players. Usually your average drive,
• 9:58
  right? So when you're throwing in six,
• 10:01
  to eight, is usually your average truck.
• 10:03
  When Brian always talks about, you want them to, you want them
• 10:08
  to have to drive the field. Something, you always talk about
• 10:11
  getting the right. Coverage has forces them to do
• 10:14
  that. And what it force in that second
• 10:16
  quarter was they were at play 11.
• 10:20
  When he threw that pick. And if y'all remember that was
• 10:24
  that wasn't like we're their friends on.
• 10:26
  That was about at the 30-yard line.
• 10:28
  Yep. It wasn't a super long drive.
• 10:32
  They were having a deep Dunk Dunk in a ventually.
• 10:35
  Armstrong made the mistake. And when that happened, yes,
• 10:39
  they scored one more time. but the juice was back there on the
• 10:44
  defense and defense, I think, It was that moment of Faith, right?
• 10:50
  It was that moment where they said, all right.
• 10:51
  Well, we do things the right way.
• 10:53
  We can stop this team. They're not, they're not just
• 10:56
  going to be able to go up and down the field.
• 10:57
  On this all game, the confidence level shifted.
• 11:00
  Their, you know, we still had an opening drive in the in the next
• 11:05
  quarter, where the appoints were surrendered.
• 11:07
  But overall, it seemed like a switch was flipped there where
• 11:12
  they were in a completely different mindset going forward.
• 11:15
  So, that was that was big from an emotional standpoint.
• 11:18
  I think for that, Defense just showing hey, you know, we can do
• 11:23
  this. Let's let's do the right things.
• 11:25
  Let's play with intensity let's not wait on them.
• 11:30
  And I think that was the big problem is that we were in some
• 11:32
  decent coverage is for what they were doing, but we were waiting,
• 11:36
  we are reacting instead of trusting the Reeds and and kind
• 11:41
  of forcing the issue and some of that had to do with bringing a
• 11:44
  little bit more pressure later in the game, which made
• 11:48
  Armstrong after Get rid of the ball quicker which meant that we
• 11:51
  could drive on the ball a lot quicker.
• 11:52
  Yeah. And I think those things those
• 11:57
  things are what helped. And you know the I think the big
• 12:02
  thing is that in the first half we struggled to get off the
• 12:04
  field on third down or bow up in the red zone and that's kind of
• 12:08
  where we're things shifted. A little bit for us.
• 12:11
  Going into the second half because we started to be a lot
• 12:14
  better. Getting off the field.
• 12:16
  Yep, they come out, they do Drive the field.
• 12:19
  Kick a field goal or there it is.
• 12:21
  Right there. Third down stop.
• 12:23
  They were in the Red Zone when that happened before.
• 12:26
  So fuel gold. You pick them off, they did get
• 12:29
  you a drive and got a touchdown but now you've shown more and
• 12:34
  more can we can stop them? That was the last points
• 12:37
  Virginia would score. Yep.
• 12:39
  If you told anybody buying Brian that that at it exactly 12
• 12:46
  minutes 30 seconds in the third quarter.
• 12:49
  You Okay, is not scoring another point.
• 12:52
  Do you have made out that I would have said you were full of
• 12:55
  shit so they don't and that's going to come up later.
• 13:00
  Yes. Oh yes.
• 13:04
  Okay. On Wednesday night.
• 13:17
  We've got to start making up the coverage is underneath, right?
• 13:20
  Yep. Thank the adjustments were made
• 13:22
  at half-time in the looks underneath were different.
• 13:26
  And Armstrong, you know, it wasn't Deacon donkey was having
• 13:32
  to double clutch. He took a sack that hurt his
• 13:36
  ankle and he was out for exactly just about a whole drive but
• 13:42
  after that ankle he was, he was not himself.
• 13:46
  You could tell he could not get any force behind his balls.
• 13:50
  Yeah. And it wasn't just the force of
• 13:51
  on the bottom and that's one thing he was still able to send
• 13:55
  the ball. Well, it It wasn't quite to his
• 13:57
  normal standard. But the big thing is that he
• 14:01
  could not escape the pocket to extend plays to give those
• 14:05
  receivers some time to get away from those initial drops, or
• 14:09
  from those initial coverages in man, and I think that's where
• 14:12
  things kind of went into our favor because we were able to
• 14:16
  from a secondary standpoint, be full-on in attack mode every
• 14:20
  snap. Yeah, because we weren't
• 14:22
  concerned about the scramble drill where we had to keep
• 14:25
  running with guys for 5 seconds or more.
• 14:28
  One thing to you, made a note of this.
• 14:31
  His balls were not flying off. He does not have the biggest
• 14:34
  one, but he has a solid arm and you can tell when they're out of
• 14:38
  shotgun, he drops back about 3 to 4 yards.
• 14:41
  So, even a 10-yard play Down field as a 20-yard pass now, and
• 14:46
  you can just tell you talk about them breaking on the ball.
• 14:49
  Those balls were not getting there as quick for Christmas.
• 14:52
  So and he's definitely more of a.
• 14:53
  He throws based on timing, right?
• 14:55
  He's a very much a timing timing quarterback.
• 14:59
  So anything that's impacting that timing is going to impact
• 15:02
  the result. And we saw how much that was
• 15:05
  impacted. And like I said, that that kind
• 15:07
  of fed into how we were playing on defense because we knew that
• 15:11
  we could attack those in khutbah krauts attack.
• 15:15
  Those out cutting routes of attack the hitches because we
• 15:18
  knew that the ball wasn't always going to get there as long.
• 15:21
  As we weren't interfering and as long as we tried to make the
• 15:24
  tackle, which tackling was a up and down aspect of this game.
• 15:31
  There were there were times where it was okay and there was
• 15:33
  times where we had three guys, get truck by Brandon Armstrong
• 15:36
  going into the end zone. We're probably will not hair
• 15:39
  out. There were times where we had
• 15:41
  tackles for loss and they got positive gains in so many times
• 15:46
  this year. Brian, when we saw that happen,
• 15:48
  Syracuse, Notre Dame. West Virginia, what happened?
• 15:54
  We lost the game. We were giving them extra
• 15:57
  opportunities tip in this week we didn't in I just get
• 16:06
  frustrated because I love Tamara Connor.
• 16:09
  For Connor might be definitely a top three player on the team I
• 16:14
  love. And there are times where Jamari
• 16:16
  perfect form pops the crap out of people, right?
• 16:19
  Dip. And then there's other times for
• 16:22
  tomorrow. If it gets all technique, I'm
• 16:24
  just trying to lay the wood he misses, or it's a it's not a
• 16:28
  good enough hit there, he did that a couple times yesterday
• 16:31
  end. I think to Morgan be successful
• 16:35
  at the next level, but he's got to clean that up.
• 16:38
  He's got to, he's got to clean that up.
• 16:41
  And I mean, he's probably going to be there, probably going to
• 16:45
  play him as like a Inside outside strong safety.
• 16:52
  I think he's well, I think he could play think.
• 16:54
  So, I think it probably play a will linebacker if you have an
• 16:57
  opinion and pounds, and I mean, in other guys, had had some,
• 17:04
  some questionable, we talked about Dorian in the first half,
• 17:07
  but second half Orion, strong looked like every bit of the
• 17:13
  player. He was on his best.
• 17:14
  Best game in that second half. Breaking own balls, coming up
• 17:19
  and making plays tactile be as aggressive.
• 17:22
  Tackling in the second half as I've seen him the entire time.
• 17:26
  He's been a hokey and, you know, after you see Olay against
• 17:30
  Jelani Woods in the first half and then you get that type of
• 17:32
  player coming out in the second half that, that's a pretty big
• 17:37
  switch, right? And Tay daily.
• 17:39
  And I know we talked about his pic, but teh daily.
• 17:43
  Probably had his most impressive game as a hokey as well.
• 17:45
  Well, he seemed to be in on just about Every play right in some
• 17:50
  way, shape, or form, whether making tackles, I mean, he led
• 17:52
  the team yesterday with nine had to pass deflections.
• 17:55
  Obviously, the one at the end of the game.
• 17:57
  Yep. Was the biggest had the pick,
• 18:02
  but it just seemed like 17 was everywhere and you know, for a
• 18:07
  guy liked a daily, I don't think Tay.
• 18:10
  I want to say that it Vandy the time he was there.
• 18:14
  They never went to a ball, saw him.
• 18:16
  Put that up on Twitter like Bowl.
• 18:17
  With the opinion first for guys, like that.
• 18:21
  Getting that sixth win. Huge, right?
• 18:24
  Because lutely your first bowl game and I wished a daily had
• 18:31
  another year or two because he, you can just see.
• 18:35
  He's starting to get his footing in the way he plays.
• 18:40
  Yeah. I mean the only, the only
• 18:41
  downside of if he did have another year, would that matter
• 18:44
  with potentially switching schemes with that, with that
• 18:47
  kind of set him back to kind of where he was coming in.
• 18:51
  So it's got its kind of a, you know, a bad situation either way
• 18:55
  you slice it there for him. Definitely wish he could be a
• 18:57
  hokie another year because he definitely showed me.
• 19:00
  Nothing this year, overall, he's had some some good games, some
• 19:04
  some less than good games but he's definitely rounding into
• 19:06
  form when it counts here and that's that's pretty big.
• 19:10
  So good on Te'o. It was sad that we ended up not
• 19:14
  having him for the majority of the Miami game.
• 19:17
  Yes. And you know, we saw what
• 19:20
  happened in that game so yeah, he was definitely a difference,
• 19:23
  he would have been a Difference Maker in that game and he got
• 19:25
  ejected for that you know basically just hit.
• 19:29
  Let's not get into the The personal foul targeting
• 19:32
  penalties again, that we could do a whole episode on that.
• 19:34
  But again, I talked about mention of everywhere and you
• 19:39
  saw him in the Run game and they did not have a run game.
• 19:41
  They had 76 charged about three yards, a carry we mentioned it
• 19:46
  like they can't have a run game their longest run.
• 19:49
  I think was Armstrong Scramble for the touchdown.
• 19:52
  The running backs, didn't break 10.
• 19:55
  Neither was getting true first down.
• 19:58
  Yeah. And that's what you love to see
• 20:00
  in that, in that being more, or less a weakness of our defense,
• 20:04
  on the whole for the year, having that type of outing
• 20:07
  against your Rivals, pretty big. Because it didn't let, we didn't
• 20:11
  let the running game impact the game.
• 20:13
  Like we said, you got to make sure that you don't let a
• 20:16
  strength become a weakness or weakness, become a strength for
• 20:19
  the other team and we didn't do that.
• 20:21
  We kept the running game in check And we're like if you're
• 20:26
  going to be this, you're going to be just throwing the football
• 20:28
  game. And the big thing is that once
• 20:31
  once they didn't have a running game and once Armstrong was
• 20:33
  starting to struggle in the second half.
• 20:36
  They had absolutely zero. Counterpunch zero.
• 20:39
  Nothing none. And you know, the other thing
• 20:44
  was they took some shots downfield, but if you watch them
• 20:47
  play this year, They weren't hitting on much downfield,
• 20:51
  right? It wasn't just pop, pop
• 20:54
  touchdown. Again, forcing them to drive and
• 20:58
  there's a desk the other thing, right?
• 21:00
  Once they couldn't count on continuously hit deep balls and
• 21:04
  then you was gonna be dinking, dunk, you know, they had a
• 21:07
  couple good screenplays, you know, the big one was they ran
• 21:10
  at Kiton, Thompson trick play and it looked like it was going
• 21:13
  to be good and then that ball got knocked out Norrell Pollard
• 21:17
  jumps on it. Not be about it then jumped on
• 21:20
  it. That I mean, the fact that he's
• 21:22
  that far down the field making that play to begin with is
• 21:24
  impressive, then he gets on the ball to very true.
• 21:28
  So it was almost like for them. You know, they didn't have much
• 21:33
  of a run game all year, but they'd always been able to go
• 21:35
  downfield and when we kind of took that away from them and
• 21:39
  then you like like they didn't know what else to do.
• 21:43
  They didn't know what else to do and it showed a lot.
• 21:47
  Now I will say this We mentioned Chianti Thompson, Jelani Woods
• 21:53
  weeks, we did not mention, Billy company had a great game, eight
• 21:56
  catches 102 yards. I mean, I don't think it's his
• 22:01
  career game but might be as game of the year, but all Brawn, he
• 22:09
  he got pop b, a daily and took the Browns to the Super Bowl.
• 22:15
  All right? You played it, a Collegiate
• 22:17
  level, you know what happens? But what it's like to hit and
• 22:23
  then you see it. It's like, I know what caused
• 22:25
  that he hit you really hard, and I mean, I don't think it changes
• 22:32
  the momentum, just a funny moment in the game when you see
• 22:35
  it happen. It's got to be talked about
• 22:37
  because I mean, you don't see it everyday, you don't see it every
• 22:41
  day, you know, hear about it. You hear about it.
• 22:46
  Like oh yeah, yeah, yeah. You did what.
• 22:52
  But this was visibly seen. Yeah, poor.
• 22:56
  Poor equipment managers. I would just if you want to and
• 23:04
  you realize, hey, I need to be cleaned up.
• 23:05
  No, you're good. No man, not all good.
• 23:09
  You can take that home with you, we thanks for those.
• 23:13
  Thanks thankfulness. Will write that one off.
• 23:18
  Let's go one last thing on the defense.
• 23:21
  The file Drive. They get it down inside the red
• 23:24
  zone. I'm sure you were like me Ron.
• 23:27
  I'm sure you were going through my head.
• 23:29
  Yes, we've this had, we've had some, we've had one red zone.
• 23:32
  Up we've had with much better second half but you just had
• 23:36
  this. I had to pit in my stomach like
• 23:38
  not this. Oh I knew we were going to have
• 23:40
  to score a touchdown with with 30 seconds left to win that game
• 23:44
  at that point, or at least kick a field goal.
• 23:46
  Sorry, we're going to be down to, at least for me down to and
• 23:50
  then third down and we'd gotten us, we've gotten them behind the
• 23:54
  sticks. Yes, third and seven from the
• 23:58
  eight, you know, we were like okay well we're going to force
• 24:02
  them to do something. They're going to try to get at
• 24:04
  least half of this yardage, right?
• 24:06
  If they don't go to the end zone there at least try to get half
• 24:08
  this yardage. No no.
• 24:11
  Ladies and gentlemen, they do. The dumbest situational play
• 24:18
  call. I've ever seen and I've watched,
• 24:22
  Brad cornelison called offense for six years.
• 24:26
  Yes we did. They went for a thick six.
• 24:30
  Throw that to an but not anything.
• 24:33
  Six, a throwback where you throw it to the offensive tackle, we
• 24:38
  are behind the line of scrimmage, no, six yards behind
• 24:41
  the line of scrimmage. Yeah, he caught it at the set of
• 24:45
  all those ten yard. He called it.
• 24:46
  The 17 Lord. Card of the 17.
• 24:51
  So your your grand play of getting at least five yards.
• 24:57
  Positive yardage is to start 10 yards behind the line of
• 25:01
  scrimmage with like your third slowest player on the field.
• 25:07
  And not only that you're calling that type of play.
• 25:10
  When you didn't check to see what coverage were in, we're in
• 25:13
  damn Zone coverage. Dorian is just standing there
• 25:17
  looking at the action going on in front of him.
• 25:21
  So he sees this from a mile away, and is there to make a
• 25:24
  tackle five yards by the five or six yards behind the line of
• 25:28
  scrimmage? It was a five.
• 25:29
  It was a six yard loss. He did not hesitate.
• 25:32
  He went right after he got physical, he went right after
• 25:34
  Big Boy's legs and he fell. And my only thought was where
• 25:41
  they were on the field, right? Brian, we talked about
• 25:43
  Armstrong's ankle, right being hurt.
• 25:46
  Yep, they were at the what they could get to the to there, with
• 25:52
  the nine, right? Eight or nine, they were at the
• 25:56
  eight. It was third and 7 from the
• 25:57
  eighth. They have a five-yard shotgun.
• 25:59
  Snapples a 3-yard drop. His ankles hurt, he's having to
• 26:04
  push it 15 or 20 yards in the end zone because they don't have
• 26:07
  anything under Center will roll out, whatever way he was going
• 26:11
  as far as like, if they were going to.
• 26:12
  Okay, let's, let's do a Sprint option, right?
• 26:14
  That's where the play has to go because he can't cut back
• 26:17
  because his ankles done. I think they were just trying to
• 26:21
  say, if we can fool with this. He'll get to like the five and
• 26:25
  then we can put everything in the Playbook.
• 26:27
  But again, you can I tell you, can I tell you why?
• 26:31
  This is Has done though. Can I tell you exactly 100%?
• 26:34
  Why this is dumb because Even if you don't use a Jelani Woods at
• 26:40
  this situation, you have three other tight ends that you can
• 26:43
  put on the field and leak them out.
• 26:46
  And you know what? You can do to a tight end that
• 26:47
  you can't do to your damn offensive tackle.
• 26:50
  You can throw a screen forward, a forward pass where he catches
• 26:54
  it, like a yard behind the line of scrimmage and then by the
• 26:57
  time he comes up, he's at least getting something.
• 27:01
  Instead of throwing it to your tackle, almost 10 yards behind
• 27:05
  the line of scrimmage because you can't throw it Forward,
• 27:08
  because he's a freaking tackle. Brian, loves offensive lineman
• 27:13
  but this is like the day, it's like you're done, right?
• 27:16
  Like this made, you I instantly went to The Varsity Blues.
• 27:21
  Billy Bob trying to do the fricking Hook and Ladder.
• 27:24
  This ain't the damn play rundown feel and act like I'm lost, is
• 27:27
  it? Yes, this is that play.
• 27:30
  And it happened exactly how it Happened in practice.
• 27:32
  It did not happen, how it was drawn up in the friggin final
• 27:35
  game. It happened, like it happened in
• 27:37
  practice clown show, except he caught the ball.
• 27:42
  And yeah. Alright.
• 27:44
  So defense stand, 2925, we've got to look at the offense
• 27:51
  though, because that was We produced he's office produced
• 28:00
  even with one of the most counterproductive game plans and
• 28:04
  play calling I have ever seen. I mean, like, like you want to
• 28:09
  get hit someone. It was so dumb.
• 28:12
  This, I mean, as bad as the, the one call that that OC had for
• 28:17
  UVA, I mean, corn had about 10 or 15 of them made in this game
• 28:22
  that were not quite as questionable, but we're
• 28:26
  certainly, Awful and let's start with the decision to Against All
• 28:33
  Odds and against whatever. The flow of the game was keep
• 28:38
  throwing. Connor, blumrich in the game to
• 28:42
  stop. What was otherwise, a productive
• 28:44
  drive and this is no knock on blumberg.
• 28:46
  Lumbering did with blumberg does?
• 28:48
  Yeah, but when you're, when you're, when you got a hot hand,
• 28:52
  you got to stop with the rotating.
• 28:53
  You got to just ride it and there were three hot.
• 28:56
  Hands. There were three of them Rahim
• 28:59
  Black Shear cracks, and Burmeister, and Taylor Robinson.
• 29:04
  I mean, those guys single-handedly on the offense,
• 29:09
  won this game. And I mean, Rahim Blackshear, 18
• 29:13
  carats 169 almost nine and a half yards, he broke a
• 29:17
  50-yarder, and there was a, there was a point where he was
• 29:22
  averaging over eleven a carry and for some reason, we kept
• 29:25
  running Connor, blumberg into the line of scrimmage.
• 29:28
  Well, yeah, we had, I'm like what are we doing?
• 29:31
  Because Rahim, blacks year was having a career day.
• 29:33
  He had a career day regardless. Like, he could have been like,
• 29:37
  close to 250 yards and we just wrote him the whole game.
• 29:40
  If we did. Yeah.
• 29:41
  Oregon and carries one more. Got ten carries.
• 29:44
  You imagine given five of those to him' and five more to
• 29:46
  Malachi. We probably could have broke
• 29:49
  three. 80 on the ground naughty and again, we're not we're not
• 29:52
  knocking blumberg, I think there were situations where we're
• 29:55
  putting blumberg in the game made sense.
• 29:58
  Well, but but a lot of times it was it was Drive killing
• 30:01
  situations. It was stupid.
• 30:03
  That's why I said it was so counterproductive.
• 30:05
  And with him yesterday, Braun, it was everything, right?
• 30:09
  It was inside Zone. It was outside Zone.
• 30:11
  It was His decision-making. What some of the stuff he did
• 30:16
  yesterday? I know UVA has a porous offense.
• 30:19
  We saw this couple weeks ago against you, when he saw a hole,
• 30:23
  he made a cut, he did not hesitate, and he hit It reminded
• 30:28
  me of Khalil Herbert so much, it reminded me of how also bad the
• 30:34
  game plan was against Miami that you gave this guy, five carries
• 30:37
  in the whole game. Yeah, you know, I know we're
• 30:43
  talking about UVA but God that was dumb, but I mean he had a
• 30:47
  day I am, I am beyond thrilled that I talk this guy up for two
• 30:54
  years and now they finally gave him some volume.
• 30:58
  He's showing out and not they not just because I look smart
• 31:03
  because I knew I knew he was capable of it, you know, on
• 31:06
  tape. I just we needed to see see It
• 31:10
  with enough volume and with enough effort and with enough
• 31:13
  focus and I think some of it was on him and he focused in it and
• 31:18
  I think that that's been the big difference.
• 31:21
  Can I say this about Raheem Blackshear?
• 31:23
  And it tells you how? Again?
• 31:25
  It's the question will be coaching staff.
• 31:27
  That's leaving you only yard she has in 12 games this year.
• 31:32
  Tub in 711 on the ground. 711 and guess what?
• 31:38
  Brian is. We start looking through here.
• 31:41
  Literally it's taken the Georgia Tech game in the last couple
• 31:48
  weeks. In Syracuse.
• 31:52
  He got 80. 81 17, 169. You got and got all those snow
• 32:00
  carries against Miami and um, you said 52 carries against
• 32:04
  Miami. He had.
• 32:05
  Oh, sorry. I was, I was giving corn more
• 32:09
  more benefit of the doubt that he deserve their aid.
• 32:12
  Again, I don't mean seven again here.
• 32:16
  Why? He's not getting at least 15 a
• 32:18
  game is it's mind-boggling. It's absolutely and it's why
• 32:23
  that guy in the booth is going to be a high school coach next
• 32:26
  year, at best. The bad thing is that a lot of
• 32:29
  this was a game Flow. I mean, West Virginia is
• 32:32
  probably the only game game flow wise And maybe, maybe pit that
• 32:38
  he should at that. He figures to be out of the game
• 32:40
  plan by halftime. Well, hold on, what about the
• 32:43
  West Virginia? When we turn the ball over deep
• 32:45
  in territory couple times, They have come off that like right
• 32:50
  there, you're like okay well we don't need to necessarily pass.
• 32:53
  We're down here, use your bread and butter let's move, not like
• 32:56
  grass. Let's talk about Braxton next
• 33:00
  because again with him, you know, Definitely probably his
• 33:06
  best overall game as a hokie. Maybe last year was a little bit
• 33:09
  better passing laws, but 141, through the air with a touchdown
• 33:13
  6 of 14, that's not a pretty stat.
• 33:16
  But when you're sitting some bombs downfield, it helps but 12
• 33:20
  for 115 and that's 70 yard run. Yep, he had the options.
• 33:27
  When he had the options, he kept some and when he kept some, it
• 33:32
  kept them off balance. He knew what he was doing.
• 33:35
  You'd see him read it. He pull it.
• 33:38
  He take the angle. He knew exactly.
• 33:40
  He ran smart here in various what a lot of those read
• 33:43
  options. and if you feel like if you were giving him a little bit
• 33:49
  more of the keys earlier in the season, you probably could have
• 33:51
  saw some more this now I know kids been beat up and Some of
• 33:58
  that is on corn, some of that is on just flow of the game.
• 34:04
  I mean shit, shit happens, but most of the time when he went
• 34:10
  when he got injured, it wasn't on a design keeper.
• 34:13
  No. So he, I think what really sucks
• 34:19
  for us as fans is. You saw him some of those, some
• 34:23
  of those Reeds when he pull it. He essentially was looking to
• 34:29
  get yards and get out of bounds, right?
• 34:32
  When he's, when he saw the players coming, I'm going to get
• 34:34
  eight yards on a live to fight another day.
• 34:36
  You imagine doing that. In some of the games, we lost in
• 34:38
  some of the games were close to this year, like the Richmond
• 34:41
  game, or even the Carolina game, what we're learning more and
• 34:44
  more every day that he wasn't given the option to read the
• 34:48
  Carolina game, could have been a whole freaking 3510 game, if
• 34:52
  they would have gave him those options and it sucks for him
• 34:56
  because he Limited has sir but you know he did hit some
• 35:00
  beautiful balls down field and I tell you the prettiest was that
• 35:05
  slot host to Taylor Robinson. Yep.
• 35:12
  So you had a step Braxton, put it right in the basket.
• 35:15
  Touchdown easy. And Tay had a heck of a day as
• 35:19
  well. Take only three receptions for
• 35:21
  89 yards, including the 61 yards for the touchdown, but they ran
• 35:25
  a little Blacksburg. Little little little little
• 35:29
  little Zone read right little fake to reverse Braxton going
• 35:34
  Braxton. Looks like he has good hands.
• 35:36
  Practicing 61 200, a little wiggle, I think practicing
• 35:39
  should go ahead and learn how to catch the ball more might help
• 35:42
  them out. But.
• 35:47
  With no Trey Turner holding him out for precautionary reasons in
• 35:53
  the offensive game plan. Yep.
• 35:56
  Hey Robin. Listen kind of showed me.
• 36:00
  He's going to be number one next year unless the next coaching
• 36:05
  staff kicks him out if they do they're idiots and we will go
• 36:08
  ahead and say that right now. He's a number one next year
• 36:12
  because I think he can go XY and Even.
• 36:18
  In his things he can do in the slot.
• 36:21
  He gives you kind of that piece where we can put Tay anywhere
• 36:24
  anytime. Yeah, yeah.
• 36:28
  He's kind of that slot that you can line up anywhere.
• 36:30
  I mean, he's most natural in the slot position, but you can still
• 36:32
  line him up outside. You're not going to send him on,
• 36:37
  you know, a ton of Midfield feeds or anything like that.
• 36:42
  That's not his game but opposed and anything underneath if we
• 36:46
  have a coordinator next year, that That figures out how to
• 36:49
  attack the middle of the field. He's gonna friggin Feast so I
• 36:54
  mean, that's what I'm looking forward to in the speaking of
• 36:56
  receivers Lofton. Another good game by Lofton.
• 37:01
  Oh yeah, couple catches for 42 yards, a big 35 yarder down
• 37:05
  field and as I was as I put the stamp on teh is being a while.
• 37:10
  I think offensive to he's shown so much so quick.
• 37:14
  Get you a little angry that we misused him throughout the year.
• 37:18
  As we've missed used numerous players but I think he's slot
• 37:24
  though. Next year, strictly the slot
• 37:26
  guy. What are you?
• 37:29
  I can see that and I could see him.
• 37:31
  I could lie. Could see him rotating into the
• 37:34
  slot when any time that that tase outside and I think that's
• 37:40
  that's the thing is that he's probably a little less fluid
• 37:43
  than Tay. I don't think he's somebody that
• 37:45
  can really pump outside regularly but I think we got
• 37:50
  other guys on the receiving Corps, that should be able to do
• 37:52
  that. We do have a lot.
• 37:55
  Say, the problem that we have right now is we probably have
• 37:58
  more slot receivers that are ready to play.
• 38:00
  Then we have snaps that we can give them because I think you
• 38:05
  know I think Jalen Jones can probably play inside and outside
• 38:10
  you know I think there's a couple other guys on this On the
• 38:14
  team that are probably more built for the slot but are
• 38:17
  probably going to have to play outside at least in the short
• 38:19
  term just because of the Personnel that we have, but I
• 38:23
  think Lofton is definitely separated himself from the rest
• 38:26
  of the guys, as being, you know, kind of probably the number two,
• 38:29
  reliable receiver going into next season.
• 38:31
  Yeah. I think I think I think the off
• 38:34
  season and next spring, or any critical for Jalen Jones, I
• 38:38
  think Jalen point, we saw that catch over the middle, if he can
• 38:41
  become that steady Eddie. Why I don't think he's an ex
• 38:44
  quite yet. That's going to give a lot of
• 38:47
  options for what we do with Tay and Lofton throughout the year.
• 38:52
  All right, Brian, let's just talk about these couple plays.
• 38:59
  Where I questioned it its fourth and two and it's probably more.
• 39:05
  Fourth two and a half. They have blumrich in there and
• 39:07
  there's a long to its as best. It's a long two.
• 39:11
  Okay that's cool. That's cool.
• 39:13
  We have blown work and they're like okay this is fine we're
• 39:14
  going to run some sort of power he goes under Center Or we
• 39:19
  gonna. Okay, we're going to run the
• 39:21
  ball down hill. Maybe we'll do a fake boot.
• 39:23
  Give him an angle to the edge, the play that was called, As
• 39:29
  stupid as a nice play was to the offensive lineman, it ain't far
• 39:34
  behind it. Yeah, this is definitely the.
• 39:39
  So this was the play before that happened.
• 39:41
  So this is this is the play before and I said hold my beer.
• 39:45
  No no no this is this is earlier this is early but that's I'm
• 39:47
  saying so I know I said hold my beer with the lately corn, had a
• 39:57
  bad call and then an I said hold my beer later later.
• 40:00
  Yeah this is this was awful and Again it's a sneaker.
• 40:08
  It's pretty much fourth and three.
• 40:10
  I mean bollocks, it was there it was everything.
• 40:12
  But that third yard and I mean, it was dead to rights.
• 40:18
  I mean it wasn't we didn't even get We might have got three
• 40:21
  inches on it. Yeah, maybe we got three inches
• 40:27
  and it was just an awful situational call.
• 40:32
  And then we had the play later. We get Trey recovering, the
• 40:35
  onside kick after the the safety.
• 40:39
  And we got blumrich in there. And this is where you question.
• 40:47
  It's I'm not faulting blumrich for trying to make a play and
• 40:50
  then unfortunately, Gallo gets gets, he gets into him and
• 40:54
  knocks the ball out of his hands.
• 40:55
  I question, why you're not riding your horse when he closed
• 41:00
  out this game because you're five yards from field, goal
• 41:05
  range. A first down, closes out the
• 41:07
  game, just give it to your horse and let him get the first down.
• 41:14
  Blumberg at that point was averaging about four yards.
• 41:17
  The carry know maybe even a little less that's like three
• 41:21
  yeah 3rb but and heme is averaging just under 10 at that
• 41:26
  point. Come on, just use common sensor,
• 41:31
  gross. This is another corn, trying to
• 41:34
  outthink everybody and then he out thinks himself.
• 41:37
  What's that? Even out thinks himself, you
• 41:39
  said here and it's there. You're deep in your own in any
• 41:42
  way, right? We're 39.
• 41:44
  I think it was acquired Lon. I'm sitting here and it's just
• 41:47
  like you run inside three times, you forced them to use their
• 41:51
  time off, if you don't get it. You're right in Parkers range
• 41:54
  anyway, you would have been he's hit 50 plus yarder already this
• 41:58
  year. So even if you don't gain
• 41:59
  another yard, it would have been one 5554 give or take based on
• 42:04
  their defense. You're probably going to gain at
• 42:06
  least five to six inside. The only you always see it.
• 42:12
  Why fumbles rarely happen inside the tackle right now.
• 42:15
  Somebody just Nails a perfect plate.
• 42:17
  We're going outside because it's space protection.
• 42:22
  You don't have your guys in front.
• 42:23
  You. So he goes against the cardinal
• 42:25
  sin. I'm going to do this
• 42:28
  fancy-schmancy stuff. No, dude, you're an idiot.
• 42:32
  I don't know football and I'm sitting here like just run the
• 42:35
  ball up the gut three times, forced them to burn all their
• 42:38
  timeouts. So it best if we don't get the
• 42:41
  first one, even if you averaged three of carry, its fourth and
• 42:46
  one and then you can roll the dice and say, you know what,
• 42:50
  we're going to go one more time, up the gut, right?
• 42:53
  One more time of to go over to close this game out or you know
• 42:56
  what? We're going to take the points.
• 42:59
  But, you know, yeah, so again, we win 29:25, the cup stays
• 43:09
  home. Two in a row. 21, a the streak
• 43:16
  begins again. The street begins again, 21 of
• 43:19
  23. Yep, 21 of 23, which is just
• 43:25
  insane. And it took, it took them having
• 43:30
  a generational defense to get one of those in a generational
• 43:34
  offensive player to get the other.
• 43:36
  Yep, says a lot. All right, Braun.
• 43:40
  Before we get into looking at the coaching, dominoes fall in
• 43:44
  today, we are going to take a quick pause for a message from

  Dash report. Now back to the episode All
• 44:16
  right guys, if you have not been paying attention today, let us
• 44:19
  update. You probably are one be building
• 44:24
  a peer out of Louisiana, Lafayette goes to Florida.
• 44:29
  It broke about, 2:00 this afternoon.
• 44:32
  I think about 4:30 the Florida, official count released it.
• 44:39
  Now the question up to, he dropped a.
• 44:40
  Thank you to you L shortly after.
• 44:44
  Yep. He is going to coach him this
• 44:45
  weekend. So that's, that's some very,
• 44:49
  unseen is usually when a guy does what that is?
• 44:52
  They don't coach the next game, it's just but he's coaching
• 44:55
  Saturday. The question is Brian, did we
• 45:01
  put an offer in? You think we put an offer in
• 45:03
  him? I definitely think we kick the
• 45:07
  tires. I think this was probably
• 45:10
  something where I don't think we necessarily had something in
• 45:15
  like a handshake agreement and then Florida swooped in.
• 45:17
  I think this was more. He was listening, we were
• 45:20
  talking Florida started talking more.
• 45:24
  And, you know, once Florida came open, you know, somebody accepts
• 45:30
  Florida over Virginia Tech. I get it.
• 45:32
  I don't like it and you hope that We start winning more
• 45:37
  toss-ups like that in the future, whether it's recruiting,
• 45:42
  or trying to get a coach to come to our program, but you get it.
• 45:48
  It's, I mean, it's SEC. It's in a more winnable division
• 45:52
  of the SEC, really? I'm just more winnable than I'd
• 45:57
  say more winnable than the West right now.
• 46:01
  I don't think they're quite as deep.
• 46:02
  I think they are. Good, but I still think the West
• 46:07
  is deeper. Okay, there's no question that
• 46:12
  I'm interested to contract. Figured I'm gonna say, 7, I'm
• 46:16
  going to say seven. I think we offered we were
• 46:18
  probably about five and a half. Maybe six probably.
• 46:21
  Yeah, I thought I'd say five and a half.
• 46:23
  Anybody that is in that realm of desirable is probably what
• 46:30
  you're looking at anybody that has no or less head.
• 46:36
  Coaching experience is probably going to be around that four
• 46:38
  million Mark exactly what you get it.
• 46:42
  Right. They aren't SEC power.
• 46:44
  They've already got A roster full of talent.
• 46:48
  They've got a Cabana on the back of their football, facility
• 46:51
  downloads, the Cabana there, and believe it or not, you know, you
• 46:56
  can say culture, like, there's some kids that's going to sell
• 47:01
  them. Some kids, it won't some kids at
• 47:04
  will, I think the biggest thing at the Jordan brand to.
• 47:07
  So, they mean something to be said about that too.
• 47:10
  There's only three schools that have the Jordan brand.
• 47:11
  Michigan, Florida, UNC that I know of might have had another
• 47:15
  One, but for Napier right now, you make Lahoma.
• 47:19
  Have it. Won't you research that you
• 47:24
  effort that but here's the deal with Florida right now.
• 47:29
  No coach has made it past season for since Urban Meyer.
• 47:35
  Her admirers. Been gone for Oklahoma, does
• 47:38
  have the Jordan thing about them in a few minutes.
• 47:42
  No, nobody's made it past season 4.
• 47:46
  And Valen had a struggle season this year, but bowling came out
• 47:49
  the gate 1 10 and 11 games went to an SEC Championship, had an
• 47:54
  83 year last year, has definitely super down this year.
• 47:57
  They go six and six he's fired. It wasn't, you know you had
• 48:02
  muschamp come out the gate hot. McElwain had still had some good
• 48:05
  season they fire them. It's one of those jobs where to
• 48:10
  me, I know you said it the other night, I don't think they're in
• 48:13
  Texas territory yet their inches.
• 48:15
  Though they aren't giving guys time to fully establish their
• 48:21
  culture and to truly coach. And, you know, that it's not
• 48:27
  necessarily the first sign of trouble like Texas but it's
• 48:30
  about the second, right? Yeah.
• 48:32
  But what was it with Mullen? Like he?
• 48:34
  They were like, he's like two and eight in his last games
• 48:36
  against this just like, okay, that's going to happen.
• 48:40
  Like they pulled the plug quick, so they saw a recruiting
• 48:45
  trending down for them on top of one Bad season.
• 48:49
  They're like, all right, we're getting the fuck out of this
• 48:50
  business. Yeah, it's one of those things.
• 48:53
  Once you dip below, like 75 or 75% win percentage, they're
• 48:58
  going to fire you. Oh, you're 67 68.
• 49:03
  Yeah, we're like nine, ten games every year.
• 49:05
  See if we don't deal with that here.
• 49:08
  So it's interesting. He goes there especially after
• 49:11
  waiting, on Auburn because when he turned down Auburn and South
• 49:14
  Carolina last year, South Carolina completely understood.
• 49:19
  That is a hell of a rebuild tough place to win.
• 49:23
  Auburn. I didn't because Auburn had
• 49:25
  shown with Gus. They would give a guy five to
• 49:28
  six years, right? If you had success early, they'd
• 49:31
  ride it for a while, before they let you go.
• 49:34
  Florida donut. So I hope Billy Napier
• 49:37
  successful there. I really do, but If he starts 9,
• 49:44
  if he goes 93, 93 93, they will fire him.
• 49:49
  Tell me like see you later bud. All right.
• 49:52
  Yeah, I mean the big thing with Napier's that, you know, he can
• 49:55
  recruit. So I think you'll see a bump in
• 49:57
  that and I think they'll probably give him a little bit
• 50:01
  more leash. If they're getting the
• 50:02
  recruiting classes in there, because they think, all right,
• 50:05
  in time these players will come around.
• 50:08
  I think the reason that you saw them pull the trigger.
• 50:11
  So quick on Mullen is that recruiting didn't fall off the
• 50:15
  deep end, but it was slowly trickling.
• 50:18
  Out of their normal Comfort Range on top of the ins also
• 50:23
  going down as well. It went from the 7 to 10 where
• 50:26
  they used to to like 15 and it's weird year in a weird year.
• 50:32
  So now I think that one kind of you can't say it was expected.
• 50:38
  I think most people pegged it. He's probably going to go to
• 50:42
  Florida. The one that broke today though.
• 50:45
  Holy shit when this broke there. Were rumors yesterday of LSU,
• 50:50
  and I thought that was bullshit. Yeah, I'm glad I thought it was
• 50:54
  Lincoln Riley to USC. Wow.
• 51:00
  Yeah this makes more sense than Lincoln rally the LSU in my
• 51:04
  opinion. True because he avoids having to
• 51:08
  win in the SEC would he get? He gets to recruit within a
• 51:13
  three-hour range of where he works and really that's all he
• 51:18
  has to do. He really doesn't have to leave
• 51:21
  Southern California to recruit know and I mean it's kind of
• 51:27
  that prestige. Each job.
• 51:28
  Whereas I mean, I know Oklahoma is also a Prestige job, but you
• 51:33
  don't have to make the college football playoff every year as
• 51:36
  USC to keep that job. Also, the path of the college
• 51:41
  football. Playoff is a hell of a lot
• 51:42
  easier than it is in the Big 12 and a hell of a lot easier than
• 51:45
  it's going to be in the SEC. Damn right.
• 51:47
  Well you saw the guy do if you saw the tweet and I wish I could
• 51:50
  give credit to put it out there. Apparently Lincoln Riley did not
• 51:55
  want that move to the SEC and I get that right.
• 51:58
  Right. It's like we're going from a
• 52:01
  good League to the best league. Dip in, we're going to probably
• 52:06
  be in the side with let's see the best team in the best head
• 52:10
  coach. Two offensive gurus, like me LSU
• 52:15
  who has won three national titles in the last 20 years am.
• 52:21
  Who gets recruit all the Texas? And Missouri and maybe Texas, we
• 52:27
  can beat Missouri. Every year, we're going to be a
• 52:29
  dogfight and everything else. So like Lincoln made a business
• 52:34
  move in. Also, you wonder if Lincoln's
• 52:36
  looking at the NFL because out of all the programs you go to
• 52:40
  USC and you're successful, there there is a very good chance that
• 52:47
  the NFL will call you. Yep.
• 52:50
  And you know, you already seen it.
• 52:54
  If you go check 24/7 out, how many of the California kids,
• 52:57
  he's recruited to Oklahoma. The crystal balls are flipping.
• 53:01
  Kids are D committing, all Lily the Flynn.
• 53:04
  Yep. And that's one reason why it's
• 53:07
  starting to get a little irritating with wit.
• 53:08
  If he has his guy, like you need to get this now, because the the
• 53:13
  portal is already happening. We see, we've heard some
• 53:16
  whispers about some folks. We were deep in on potentially
• 53:20
  entering the portal, some guys that we had targeted this Cool.
• 53:24
  That are now D. Committing opening up their
• 53:26
  recruitment fully. Because obviously, not everybody
• 53:29
  wants to take a trip out to Southern Cal a lot of the
• 53:34
  footprint that Oklahoma's recruiting is, you know,
• 53:37
  Mid-Atlantic east coast south. I mean, they're all over there
• 53:41
  -, man. They gotta focus in Texas.
• 53:45
  So tan will bit more in the Southeast, but they'll go to
• 53:47
  California or coming in Virginia as they did last year, so,
• 53:51
  they're more of a national footprint.
• 53:55
  But for us it's like I see this in this like you get the new
• 53:59
  coach in here because it could be somebody that like a
• 54:03
  four-star loves and it's like yeah you lost him or he's going
• 54:06
  there. Yeah, I'm going to go there.
• 54:07
  Now I wouldn't go to him over here but I'm going in there so
• 54:11
  Whitney's to get on this to me. It needs to be done this week.
• 54:15
  He needs to make the move this week there.
• 54:18
  Again, you know, you know, you don't hear by December first.
• 54:21
  I'm going to start getting antsy.
• 54:22
  I do, you're already getting See y'all ready?
• 54:25
  Well because now you got Oklahoma open, right?
• 54:27
  That is a premier top, 10 job. So know who are they going to go
• 54:32
  after? You know you feel like it's
• 54:35
  probably where we are right now. It's probably a few guys that we
• 54:39
  haven't really contacted but it means going to be there that
• 54:42
  both a lot of their targets are going to be guys that are out of
• 54:45
  our pay range by default, but if they don't hit on those, then
• 54:50
  that's when they start creeping into the top end of what.
• 54:53
  We're looking at that's left, and then we've got, you know,
• 54:58
  there's another job open LSU and we're hearing, you know, Stoops
• 55:03
  from Kentucky might be somebody that they're looking at.
• 55:09
  So I mean, this is really you know, if Kentucky comes open
• 55:12
  that's that is a decent job right in our backyard.
• 55:17
  That is a direct competitor. It can to if the March noobs
• 55:21
  leaves in Mark Stoops either goes to 0 Oklahoma or LSU direct
• 55:27
  competitor. And when I say that, Charles
• 55:29
  Huff, David Chadwell Tony Elliot, some of the names we
• 55:35
  mentioned last week. Well, that's absolutely on their
• 55:37
  radar. Then they built a good culture
• 55:41
  there, the expectations aren't crazy Mark.
• 55:45
  Stoops is proving you can win 8 plus games there year and
• 55:50
  compete in getting the fight with Georgia lose the fight.
• 55:54
  But make it a fight, unlike some teams.
• 55:56
  So if we has this guy, he better get that ink drive this week
• 56:00
  because of Kentucky. Becomes open.
• 56:02
  They're going to steal somebody. We probably won't.
• 56:04
  Yeah and with might already have his guy and he's not announcing
• 56:07
  but he needs to go ahead and lock it up because the longer
• 56:09
  that we wait the greater possibility that guys get cold
• 56:14
  feet start looking elsewhere and we don't want to be in a battle
• 56:16
  if you already got a guy that's willing to sign, go ahead and
• 56:19
  get this done. And like we said, I'm not
• 56:23
  necessarily worried yet, but if we get past December 1st, if
• 56:27
  we're having the same conversation when we're putting
• 56:30
  together the next Sewed, we're going to put out, it's going to
• 56:33
  be a that that that's when I'm going to start worrying.
• 56:36
  If with screws this up, they should just fire with because
• 56:41
  you fired a guy. You fired a guy deep in season.
• 56:48
  Like d it like you fired him in. There was multiple weeks left or
• 56:52
  two weeks left in the season. My first thought was when you
• 56:55
  fired him, you had your guy you needed to get him out of the
• 56:58
  door. Get that if the pay structure
• 57:00
  straight and then just get this guy to sign the deal.
• 57:03
  Yeah. Because if because if you didn't
• 57:05
  have your guy you could have fired him earlier and set in and
• 57:08
  played the longer game good game.
• 57:11
  So in which keeping I think Wyatt.
• 57:15
  And you know what? Well I hope the next head coach
• 57:17
  makes you stop doing it. Bullshit.
• 57:19
  You'll need to keep everything quiet.
• 57:23
  Don't do it to fans because right now, I'm not the only one,
• 57:26
  that's an see. How about piano and he could
• 57:28
  still get it right? But I mean the, the drama here
• 57:32
  is a little bit more than is worth.
• 57:34
  Why do we need drama? We need a new coach in place to
• 57:37
  keep a top-25 class. Together to keep one of the best
• 57:42
  running backs in Virginia here, to keep a potential best lineman
• 57:46
  in Virginia here. To keep a solid Texas
• 57:50
  quarterback here. It's like, I'm just going to
• 57:53
  drop it at 7:45. I hope it's dropped at 7:45
• 57:57
  tomorrow morning and there's an announcement and there's a
• 57:59
  presser to lovin. It was perfectly done, but I'm
• 58:03
  getting worried about it and, you know, like kind of who's
• 58:08
  left now Huff, Chadwell Healy Jukes open.
• 58:12
  Now, we didn't throw that on here.
• 58:13
  Cutcliffe got they, essentially amicably departed today.
• 58:17
  I mean, you still got the The, the most of the coordinators are
• 58:20
  still out there, he's still got free mini, still got Elko, you
• 58:22
  still got those guys, you got funny, but I think, I think the
• 58:26
  big thing we're losing now is, you know, we are, we talked
• 58:30
  about our 1A and 1B and we've already lost our 1B.
• 58:33
  Yeah. And Like I said, there's still
• 58:38
  guys on the board that I'd be comfortable with, but every day
• 58:41
  it goes further either it sounds like either.
• 58:44
  They don't want the job or they're looking at other jobs,
• 58:49
  so, lock it up with, get it done.
• 58:53
  So we can go ahead and start building towards keeping its
• 58:56
  class together and building a coaching staff.
• 59:00
  And that's going to be key because trust us, y'all, when
• 59:04
  this coaching staff starts getting put together, I believe
• 59:07
  we are, we going, we're going to be going through fine-tooth comb
• 59:10
  with every position. Look for that episode.
• 59:13
  Might have some fun guest on here to talk at through to.
• 59:16
  Yeah, episodes, I'm not even gonna say episode episode
• 59:21
  because clearly what's happened in the last six years?
• 59:24
  Showed the value of having a really good staff.
• 59:29
  Because can I assist from? Go for it.
• 59:32
  You way, it's going. Would you adjust rather with
• 59:36
  said screw it? I'm going to keep the one day
• 59:40
  you're going to fire him him him him and him and you're going to
• 59:43
  hire new people. And I'm going to sign off on
• 59:45
  every single one of them. Not yet.
• 59:48
  Not yet. No, your homework until more
• 59:52
  guys are off the board. I'm not, I'm not saying that's
• 59:55
  what I want. I don't know.
• 59:58
  I'm going to say a burst name. Only first name only.
• 1:00:01
  And tell me if that, if you would have be like, no, we need
• 1:00:05
  to do this, Mike Which Mike? I've been which Mike, do you
• 1:00:13
  know what you're talking about? If you're talking about our
• 1:00:16
  friend down in E, see you then? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:00:20
  Yeah. That that's not inspiring.
• 1:00:22
  So again, it's Mike. Would you rather been like not
• 1:00:27
  keep for Wednesday and make him clean his staff out?
• 1:00:31
  Nah, I still, I still say that that we needed to get rid of get
• 1:00:36
  out of the 20 business, I think. By the way, I do because I guess
• 1:00:43
  I'll say that because I don't think we're going to that's
• 1:00:44
  going to be the route that we go and I know that this is a
• 1:00:50
  hypothetical here, but I don't think we're going to end up with
• 1:00:53
  that type of candidate in mind. I think that it's going to be
• 1:00:56
  somewhat at least that we discussed on this program or
• 1:01:00
  someone of that ilk. So no.
• 1:01:04
  I mean I think culture-wise he had to go.
• 1:01:06
  I think the I think the culture had been damaged Beyond repair
• 1:01:10
  Pair. Okay.
• 1:01:12
  Okay so I think that that's really where I'm landing on
• 1:01:15
  that. Oh God, but I'm asking you and
• 1:01:20
  if he screw if he screws it up bad then you know that that's to
• 1:01:24
  be seen. But I don't think he's gonna
• 1:01:25
  screw it up as bad as that weight.
• 1:01:27
  Go need to go if he screws it up.
• 1:01:28
  Bad. He's going to need to go.
• 1:01:32
  The other thing that I was going to wear to go, hold on. - skip
• 1:01:41
  that. Yes, you can LightWave agrees
• 1:01:44
  with me here. So, I like that.
• 1:01:48
  I'm just asking because the white and I hope you're still
• 1:01:53
  listening. Are you getting worried?
• 1:01:57
  And why are you, are you worried?
• 1:01:59
  Because it's Sunday night, it's after 10:00 the season is over,
• 1:02:04
  we're going to a bowl game. There is not even an inkling if
• 1:02:08
  we were going to get I'm gonna go with, I'm gonna go with the,
• 1:02:12
  the JC price thing when he was talking about Beamer.
• 1:02:14
  If, if Dwight's not worried, I'm not worried.
• 1:02:18
  Well, let's wait. Why are you wearing?
• 1:02:22
  Well, we move on here, because here we go, here we go
• 1:02:28
  concerned, everybody and it's all right, he's with a stone
• 1:02:32
  that so I think we're good. I think we're in a good place
• 1:02:34
  here guys, Dwight. If you hear anything, hit us up
• 1:02:40
  especially me because I'm gonna be sitting here taking the rest
• 1:02:43
  of the week and see nervous. I'm working at home with nobody
• 1:02:47
  here so it's quiet. But the thoughts that run
• 1:02:49
  through my head is oh God, we're going to hire this guy and I
• 1:02:52
  want to want to throw things. It's Curtis is going to need to
• 1:02:56
  ration that morning coffee so he doesn't go into full-on meltdown
• 1:03:00
  midday. You know, I'm already drinking
• 1:03:03
  like 28 ounces a day. Yeah, kids and he's gonna be
• 1:03:06
  like 40. I'm only having three giant cups
• 1:03:09
  before 10 a.m. I've already.
• 1:03:12
  Had a couple people up and told them like listen if you know who
• 1:03:17
  it is and you don't think I'm going to like it, you need to
• 1:03:21
  just you don't need to say who just rip the Band-Aid off.
• 1:03:27
  I'll respect if they want to hold their Source, but you need
• 1:03:29
  to tell me to go buy the bottle of Jameson's.
• 1:03:32
  Out of the liquor cabinet and start drinking it.
• 1:03:35
  I'm slightly inebriated, and slightly dull to the fact of who
• 1:03:39
  we hire, man. If you do that, you're gonna be
• 1:03:41
  throwing shit at the TV screen when the president.
• 1:03:43
  Whoa, whoa, it was so pretty much nights at TCU the
• 1:04:00
  Washington and Washington State stuff Let me actually, let me
• 1:04:05
  look up that because I haven't even looked at the West Coast
• 1:04:09
  stuff. This is, this is live right now.
• 1:04:15
  Whoa, the guy who interim and Washington State date dickered
• 1:04:21
  has been given a five-year contract.
• 1:04:25
  There it is. Off the table. so that's wild
• 1:04:33
  and I'm going to go to the Washington football, so I hear
• 1:04:40
  They have not gotten anything yet.
• 1:04:45
  If there's any rumors. Get yours up run.
• 1:04:48
  So if you have a Washington, Scoop feel free to hit us up.
• 1:05:01
  Efforting everything I've done. I'm not, I'm not seeing anything
• 1:05:04
  popping up that I'm seeing. I mean, some of the podcasts out
• 1:05:10
  there throwing out kahlan, Deboer, Matt, Campbell Justin
• 1:05:14
  Wilcox, will Bobby? I don't I don't know if those
• 1:05:19
  are like pipe dreams or if they're, you know, legitimate
• 1:05:22
  for them. So They're also saying the guy
• 1:05:27
  who's at Fresno State might have a chance at this.
• 1:05:30
  I did hear that earlier. Yeah, I didn't hear that.
• 1:05:33
  We'll talk to the guy for Fresno State wouldn't shock me?
• 1:05:35
  They're both. They're both west coast, guys.
• 1:05:40
  That makes more sense for them and that really doesn't put them
• 1:05:42
  at odds with anybody. Well, kind of in our radar.
• 1:05:49
  And I mean, we've heard a couple Wildcard games this week that
• 1:05:52
  we're going to keep to ourselves at this point that for the VT
• 1:05:55
  job. Ah, but we'll get to see how
• 1:05:57
  that will see if those come to fruition.
• 1:06:00
  We don't feel comfortable enough with, with throwing those out
• 1:06:03
  there yet. So, do not even joke about it.
• 1:06:07
  All right, Braun. Let's look at this, hopefully
• 1:06:09
  you. By the way, if anything breaks
• 1:06:11
  coaching was before we're out of here tonight, we're going to,
• 1:06:14
  we're going to talk about it, but we are going to look real
• 1:06:17
  quick. Good Saturday for us.
• 1:06:23
  Good overall year. We are both better than coin
• 1:06:26
  flips. So remember that we're better
• 1:06:30
  than coin flips. So if we say something, You
• 1:06:35
  might have a good chance to get it right?
• 1:06:38
  But we both go 73 and one on Saturday, Brian. 73 and one,
• 1:06:46
  Mike Gundy clearly took Oklahoma and the for because that pushed
• 1:06:54
  when he could have kicked a field goal to get it to five,
• 1:06:59
  that was one we pushed. And then, let's see, we both got
• 1:07:02
  in Sea State wrong, although the final two minutes of that game
• 1:07:06
  in the final two minutes of the tech game, What is it, Coastal
• 1:07:11
  chaos and Atlantic and are Keanu.
• 1:07:14
  They played UNC but They came back and won that game for two
• 1:07:19
  touchdowns and two minutes. That's insane.
• 1:07:23
  But they could not cover, we could not cover weight.
• 1:07:28
  Goes up to BC and just blows the door.
• 1:07:30
  We thought it'd be a tighter game than this.
• 1:07:32
  They will not 31. They beat the brakes off PC.
• 1:07:36
  Yeah, they were, I think they got a little boy, wake up call
• 1:07:40
  against Clemson and they're like, they were much more
• 1:07:42
  focused in this game and their quarterback.
• 1:07:45
  Even, I know he plays with The pastor but he seemed a little
• 1:07:48
  bit more focused. Yeah.
• 1:07:50
  Consistent throughout and once they had to leave it was kind
• 1:07:54
  of, you know, it was easy to put them away.
• 1:07:55
  At that point, it was really easy to put them away at that
• 1:07:58
  point, I mean and they didn't turn it off.
• 1:08:02
  Now UBC my about 31 points, they did not turn it off.
• 1:08:07
  Anytime during that game, the next one Bryant week, Brian got
• 1:08:11
  a Georgia Tech game, right. Everybody, Ryan got to do and
• 1:08:15
  you got it right? I'd like to thank God and
• 1:08:18
  everyone listening and I'm just kidding.
• 1:08:24
  It was not even a question like, Like, once they got to like 30,
• 1:08:30
  I think 31. It was like a question is, how
• 1:08:33
  big is it going to be? Because Georgia Tech's not
• 1:08:36
  scorn? No, they're not scoring at all.
• 1:08:40
  I mean, this is one of this is probably one of the better
• 1:08:42
  defenses that I think that we've seen in a while.
• 1:08:46
  Probably since those like really damn good Bama defense has led
• 1:08:50
  to problems or the 2010s. Yeah.
• 1:08:54
  Agreed. I mean they're nasty and seeing
• 1:08:58
  You know, seeing how Bama looked against Auburn like it literally
• 1:09:03
  took Bama 40 minutes to score and I mean reality is they
• 1:09:09
  probably should have lost that game and he all still in the
• 1:09:11
  Bill O'Brien bandwagon Or Nah. Hey listen.
• 1:09:17
  I know be, you know, C is different than being a head
• 1:09:20
  coach. I you know, I don't need y'all
• 1:09:22
  in my mentions on that but I don't again I don't think it's
• 1:09:27
  Sara Lee the most awful higher we could have but there are
• 1:09:30
  definitely a lot of question marks with that.
• 1:09:33
  If that's somebody that's on our radar.
• 1:09:36
  True very true FSU. Florida got us on that one.
• 1:09:43
  Yeah, it was a three-point game. We took FSU and two and a half
• 1:09:50
  but I think Mike Norvell might be okay if the guy think if he
• 1:09:57
  gets another class or two under his belt, that's good and
• 1:10:02
  they're starting to settle in and play the style of ball that
• 1:10:06
  he likes to play. Yep, there it started to click
• 1:10:09
  for them. So that's why they're, they've
• 1:10:12
  been more competitive. And, yeah, I think more that is
• 1:10:16
  on the offense. I think the defense was always
• 1:10:18
  up and down, they had good games in Bad Games with the offense
• 1:10:21
  has started to To put a few things together now.
• 1:10:25
  And that's really kind of turned it for them.
• 1:10:28
  Obviously, we got the next one with Miami, they will go wears
• 1:10:33
  off for Duke 4710. I mean, that wasn't even a game.
• 1:10:38
  We laid 21 could have late 31 and still been safe.
• 1:10:45
  Got that one, right? So, you know, and then South
• 1:10:50
  Carolina, Clemson the battle of the Palmetto State.
• 1:10:53
  Brian and his love affair with shame.
• 1:10:55
  Beamer took the 11 and a half points.
• 1:10:58
  I do not have a love affair of Shame.
• 1:10:59
  Beamer. I thought that, I thought that
• 1:11:01
  the Clemson game against wake was an aberration.
• 1:11:05
  No, I didn't think they were going to be as tight on offense
• 1:11:07
  in back-to-back weeks. I really three weeks if you look
• 1:11:11
  at, I mean, the week before they didn't have a bad outing, then
• 1:11:14
  you put it in with the weight game and then now again, South
• 1:11:18
  Carolina and, you know, No, for all of the problems, South
• 1:11:22
  Carolina's had offensively up and down, all year.
• 1:11:25
  I mean they've had a decent defense and it didn't work out
• 1:11:31
  this game. You did not work out and
• 1:11:33
  Clemson's defense just clamp them just like yeah, you're not
• 1:11:37
  doing any third string or looked like a third Stringer.
• 1:11:40
  Exactly Kentucky Louisville. I think we thought this game
• 1:11:46
  would be more competitive. I watch Pete, they blew them
• 1:11:49
  stupid. Blew the doors off them.
• 1:11:51
  I mean, that wasn't like gained. Like I remember I was we were
• 1:11:55
  doing some stuff around the house you know decorating
• 1:11:58
  Christmas and and I walking it's like 14-7 of my own.
• 1:12:03
  Okay. I like 23.
• 1:12:04
  I think we're safe. Well back, it is 31 sign.
• 1:12:07
  I'm like, are you safe? Three is really safe.
• 1:12:11
  Yeah, we're good. So you know we both got that one
• 1:12:15
  right? The pit game pit easily wins
• 1:12:19
  over Syracuse make sure just go crazy about that game.
• 1:12:23
  We played against them to Egg Bowl, Thursday night, not as
• 1:12:28
  high scoring, as I thought entertaining game old, Mustangs
• 1:12:31
  on Feelings by Thin and then Michigan.
• 1:12:36
  Ohio State. You nailed that one, dude, you
• 1:12:39
  nailed the, getting the spread. And how much of that game did
• 1:12:43
  you get to watch? Because I know you were going to
• 1:12:45
  do some traveling. I watched pretty much all the
• 1:12:49
  second half so you saw the absolute, we are going to pound
• 1:12:53
  you and we're going to pound you again.
• 1:12:57
  Yep. As an offensive lineman when you
• 1:13:01
  see. Well actually I game two.
• 1:13:04
  When you see that happening. what does it make me feel like,
• 1:13:11
  because edges It playing those type of games is like a euphoric
• 1:13:17
  feeling because you kind of get in this Zone where you feel like
• 1:13:22
  I'm attacking every play. I'm imposing my will on the
• 1:13:27
  other side of the ball. They can't stop us.
• 1:13:30
  Even if they slowed us down, we're going to get them.
• 1:13:32
  Hit them the next play. It's not going to matter.
• 1:13:35
  We're running down your throat. Fucking stop us because you're
• 1:13:39
  not going to do it. Yeah.
• 1:13:41
  And it's as empowering of a feeling as an offensive lineman
• 1:13:44
  as you can have. Yeah.
• 1:13:48
  And watching I got to watch about half of the second half.
• 1:13:53
  In kind of was trying to peek at it here and there, I mean, the
• 1:13:57
  stat line for Michigan was, I mean 297, they always broke 300
• 1:14:04
  and that is a group in Ohio, State team loaded with five
• 1:14:08
  stars. One thing and always talk this,
• 1:14:11
  my buddy, Mike, it worked a couple years ago.
• 1:14:15
  Michigan got torched right about hosting.
• 1:14:19
  Torched with the passing offense, they let go of Don
• 1:14:23
  Brown. Old-school, lot of cover 1,
• 1:14:26
  cover zeros, lot of man's. They brought in the McDonald
• 1:14:29
  kid, who is a? He's a look at some of the stuff
• 1:14:33
  he does. It's similar to ham obviously,
• 1:14:35
  he's got a little more tenure That's a modern-day way to slow
• 1:14:39
  down with the athletes at Michigan.
• 1:14:42
  Gets Ohio State. I mean, we've seen him Italy.
• 1:14:45
  They played, you could see cover three, cover for they played
• 1:14:48
  some man, they blitzed occasionally.
• 1:14:51
  I mean the two guys at the end or studs.
• 1:14:54
  Yeah. But what if it's less than high
• 1:14:56
  risk, High reward system and more of a drive on us drive on
• 1:15:01
  us grind it and make them make mistakes.
• 1:15:05
  Make them get antsy. Make them get impatient.
• 1:15:07
  Patient. And in any way they did.
• 1:15:10
  And even when even when they weren't impatient, they were
• 1:15:13
  getting some stops. And when they got impatient,
• 1:15:15
  they were absolutely getting stops.
• 1:15:16
  Yeah, I did not see that game playing out that way.
• 1:15:21
  I thought that Ohio state was still hit a few over-the-top,
• 1:15:24
  but Michigan stuck to their game plan and they they made that
• 1:15:29
  defense cry Uncle. Yeah, I mean, that last Drive
• 1:15:34
  where to literally it was six runs and it Like 65 yards.
• 1:15:40
  It was just like this is what we're going to do.
• 1:15:42
  We're going to do it. You will not stop us.
• 1:15:44
  We are going to look. We're going to close this game
• 1:15:46
  out. And something else.
• 1:15:50
  And I know the Virginia Tech fans up in Charlottesville,
• 1:15:54
  rushed the field which was hilarious to see Darrell Smith,
• 1:15:57
  planted the flag Rush. The field planning the several
• 1:16:01
  flags were planted. I think Rock planted one
• 1:16:05
  somebody else playing it one Tyrell Planet one, but how about
• 1:16:09
  just overall numerous Fields were rushed?
• 1:16:14
  And in this season has been great.
• 1:16:18
  Because what makes college football are the stadiums are,
• 1:16:23
  the fans are the bands. In the drum lines are the chance
• 1:16:29
  And when Michigan one Michigan's, a long-standing
• 1:16:33
  power, their blue blood, their top ten, top five team.
• 1:16:38
  They Rush the field. And I don't know if it was, you
• 1:16:42
  know, they broke the Ohio State streak, which is huge.
• 1:16:46
  But it's just this feeling that. You know, college football's one
• 1:16:52
  for me, it's always going to be one.
• 1:16:54
  I like watching the program game, I play Fantasy.
• 1:16:57
  I have a team but I can sit and legitimately watch any college
• 1:17:02
  game at any point in time. Why have multiple TVs in my man
• 1:17:08
  cave? I need more.
• 1:17:12
  And what the NFL if I miss a game, I'm not as upset, you
• 1:17:16
  know? You know, it is what it is but
• 1:17:20
  it's the sport. We love man.
• 1:17:22
  Yep. I will watch it any game that's
• 1:17:26
  on and I've got the time, I will sit down and watch it.
• 1:17:29
  Yeah, it doesn't matter. I mean I love watching the
• 1:17:32
  Hokies but I really like watching any other team play
• 1:17:35
  football. All to it, especially college
• 1:17:37
  football. Yeah.
• 1:17:38
  And like yesterday I watched a ton of bedlam and they rushed
• 1:17:44
  the field and it was great to see that, you know, Against you,
• 1:17:50
  it's any game and then when it's a rivalry game especially in
• 1:17:53
  college football, it's a lot more smack talk.
• 1:17:56
  It's a lot more popping. It's a lot more trash talking
• 1:18:00
  and it makes John after plays referees, having to step in
• 1:18:03
  separate Folks at times, and we saw it against Virginia, solve
• 1:18:08
  lunch, Ohio State, Michigan. Solid a bunch and Bedlam.
• 1:18:12
  It was great. Egg Bowl Egg Bowl.
• 1:18:15
  Everything was great. All right, fine.
• 1:18:18
  Let's go one more time. Let's make sure nothing has
• 1:18:20
  broken the last little while here.
• 1:18:25
  Or you seen anything? I have not.
• 1:18:31
  Okay. Well.
• 1:18:36
  If you've got nothing else to talk about anything else, you
• 1:18:39
  want to hit before we shut it out.
• 1:18:41
  I mean, we can we can talk some Thanksgiving break.
• 1:18:43
  How was yours, man? Oh yeah.
• 1:18:45
  Um well let's see. Well.
• 1:18:52
  The microwave broke literally right after my wife, put in the
• 1:18:57
  last dose batch of sweet potatoes because she throws them
• 1:19:00
  in their nukes on for a while before she bakes them, you made
• 1:19:04
  a pop sound. So Saturday, why did you watch
• 1:19:06
  all the Michigan game? This, you know how State game
• 1:19:09
  is? Because I was installing a new
• 1:19:11
  one above the range. That was fun.
• 1:19:16
  Yeah, eight tonnes of food. Desserts.
• 1:19:24
  Oh gosh. You know, we ate lunch in
• 1:19:27
  Virginia Beach and then travel to South Boston and ate another
• 1:19:31
  one for dinner at about 7:30. So, we were time there.
• 1:19:37
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:19:37
  We got a little. Yeah.
• 1:19:40
  I got a three-hour Drive in the middle there.
• 1:19:42
  Yeah, here's the funny part on Thursday.
• 1:19:48
  This is how I ate. I woke up.
• 1:19:50
  I eat like a nutrigrain bars. Like 8:00 about 11:00 is we had
• 1:19:56
  about four sit, then I got to eat some because if not the
• 1:20:00
  body's going to be screening, eat a sandwich and then Hammer
• 1:20:04
  to fully loaded plates, just Hammer attaboy.
• 1:20:10
  And then after that's done about an hour later, big old piece of
• 1:20:14
  pecan pie, big old piece of chocolate pie, like literally
• 1:20:18
  half a place worth I went with the dessert.
• 1:20:21
  Sampler, I had some pecan pie, I had some pumpkin pie and some
• 1:20:25
  apple pie had some chocolate pie.
• 1:20:28
  One of each sampler. I was the pecan pie was amazing.
• 1:20:34
  Homemade just love Thanksgiving and you know always a fun day.
• 1:20:44
  I didn't get a nap this year though.
• 1:20:46
  I did not get an app this year. I will say you know, I think
• 1:20:53
  it's okay. I've slept really good on
• 1:20:55
  Thursday. There you go.
• 1:20:57
  I got about a 20-minute snoozer just before we pack the car to
• 1:21:02
  leave. So I ate, I ate my two plates,
• 1:21:05
  had my dessert plate, hitting 20 minutes snoozer, I guess kind of

  like right at the I guess Rick right towards the end of the
• 1:21:17
  first half of the game, the first game, the early game, or
• 1:21:22
  the start of the second half, somewhere in there.
• 1:21:25
  Alright, packed up the car, hit the road, got South Boston,
• 1:21:28
  about seven, ready for round two.
• 1:21:31
  Only went one fully loaded plate for dinner though, I couldn't do
• 1:21:34
  to you. Well, good luck.
• 1:21:37
  Like that was I done three fully loaded plates.
• 1:21:42
  Granted I did not eat anything. Anything until 120.
• 1:21:47
  What's your dish? That's kind of You know, it's
• 1:22:02
  not a normal or what's your one dish, it like hits every year,
• 1:22:07
  like got to have that. All right, so the thing I like
• 1:22:11
  to make the most of the thing, I like to eat the most, I make a
• 1:22:14
  sausage dressing that's like out of this world.
• 1:22:21
  So I will make that in and I will crush that If it's not I
• 1:22:26
  love turkey. That's that's kind of the go-to
• 1:22:28
  but obviously that we are, that's on everybody's plate.
• 1:22:30
  So I'm not going to wipe that up the underrated.
• 1:22:34
  Team player there is anybody that can do brussels sprouts,
• 1:22:38
  right? Yeah, underrated very underrated
• 1:22:42
  very, very underrated. But we have brussels sprouts all
• 1:22:47
  the time here at the house. Well, I pick up Brussels sprouts
• 1:22:51
  at least two times a month because the way, my wife cooks
• 1:22:53
  them, they're amazing. Shout out my wife and I had
• 1:22:57
  never really been a fan of this until hers her corn pudding.
• 1:23:01
  Hey hmm. There's corn pudding.
• 1:23:04
  Coming off the bench, thinking the three, well, you know, it's
• 1:23:10
  a huge help because I'm going like mashed potatoes, turkey,
• 1:23:14
  loading, it gravy rolls, we have a broccoli casserole to the
• 1:23:19
  green bean and then after all that richness like that little
• 1:23:23
  Sweet Corn Pops and she only makes it during the holidays.
• 1:23:28
  I don't require, you know, no other time but one cannot be my
• 1:23:33
  wife's on a big Brussels. Fan.
• 1:23:35
  So we don't have brussels sprouts very often throughout
• 1:23:37
  the year. So when it comes to things,
• 1:23:40
  given when people are cooking for like, you know, ten, ten,
• 1:23:43
  ten people are more brussels sprouts come out.
• 1:23:47
  You know, I go ahead and reserve.
• 1:23:48
  All right, well you got this. We had 10 people, but I'm going
• 1:23:50
  to reserve a fourth of this Brussels sprout plate.
• 1:23:54
  Just from me and exit. Everybody else.
• 1:23:58
  Could split the remainder. I've Annex this section here.
• 1:24:01
  This is mine, do not touch. All right, man.
