Transcript
- 0:13Speaker 1: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Nine o'clockers, welcome aboard. Good to
- 0:18Speaker 1: have you all with us here on a Monday. It's
- 0:20Speaker 1: a Panther bye week, but man, we got so much
- 0:22Speaker 1: stuff to talk about. So much good college football, NFL
- 0:26Speaker 1: chaos yesterday, and we've tried to cover it all and
- 0:29Speaker 1: a bunch of randomness as well. We've discussed on this
- 0:32Speaker 1: show today. We got to do the college football conversation
- 0:36Speaker 1: right now. with a man who is doing great stuff
- 0:39Speaker 1: on the broadcasting side. You learn something every time he
- 0:42Speaker 1: takes to the microphone. I'm sure that'll be the case
- 0:45Speaker 1: here this morning as well. We're talking about Dave Klaassen,
- 0:48Speaker 1: ACC Network ESPN, and he joins us here on the
- 0:52Speaker 1: Mac and Bone Show. Coach, what's going on? How you
- 0:54Speaker 1: doing this morning?
- 0:56Speaker 2: I'm doing great. Thanks for having me on.
- 0:59Speaker 1: Coach, what do you think? I know you've got to
- 1:02Speaker 1: have a soft spot for the Deacs all your years
- 1:05Speaker 1: there and the stuff you did with them. Man, Jake
- 1:08Speaker 1: Dickard has taken the baton and he is running. The
- 1:11Speaker 1: latest example was blowing out NC State in Raleigh. You've
- 1:17Speaker 1: got to talk about this team in terms of getting
- 1:21Speaker 1: to Charlotte potentially for an ACC title game, don't we?
- 1:25Speaker 2: Well, right now you have Miami, who's undefeated in the ACC,
- 1:29Speaker 2: and you have nine teams with one loss. And of
- 1:33Speaker 2: those nine teams, I think there's no question that Wake
- 1:36Speaker 2: Forest has been playing the very best football of those
- 1:40Speaker 2: nine teams. And they're the most consistent team.
- 1:45Speaker 3: Coach, I think your dog also agrees in the background
- 1:48Speaker 3: about Wake right now.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yeah, our dogs agree. I'm actually dropping my daughter off
- 1:55Speaker 2: at ESPN.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Oh, nice.
- 1:57Speaker 2: She works there, and we're passing through the gates together.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Oh, that's awesome.
- 2:03Speaker 2: She works for ESPN. for game day, but the dogs
- 2:06Speaker 2: have settled down. So sorry about that.
- 2:08Speaker 1: I have a dog that does it every time on
- 2:10Speaker 1: the phone too. So that's why it's funny.
- 2:11Speaker 3: Coach SI.com right now has Wake Forest as a, as a,
- 2:16Speaker 3: as a playoff team as one of the 12 teams.
- 2:19Speaker 3: Do you, do you think there's a path there for,
- 2:21Speaker 3: for way to potentially be maybe the second team in
- 2:24Speaker 3: the ACC to be one of the playoff teams?
- 2:27Speaker 2: Well, right now, if the ACC gets a second team,
- 2:30Speaker 2: it would probably be Wake Forest. Now, there's a lot
- 2:33Speaker 2: of football left, and typically the ACC competes with the
- 2:39Speaker 2: Big 12 to be a two-bid team. So I think
- 2:44Speaker 2: if you're Wake Forest, and this is going to sound
- 2:47Speaker 2: really strange, you probably are a big Notre Dame fan
- 2:51Speaker 2: this weekend.
- 2:53Speaker 1: You got to take out BYU. It's a good point. Yeah,
- 2:55Speaker 1: that's a good call.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Exactly. I think a lot of times that second bid
- 3:02Speaker 2: in last year, Miami got in at the at-large. Now
- 3:08Speaker 2: this year, all the conference champions automatically get in. So
- 3:14Speaker 2: you have seven at-larges. And probably the SEC will get
- 3:19Speaker 2: three or four of those. And a lot of times
- 3:21Speaker 2: it comes down to You know, is it going to
- 3:23Speaker 2: be a Big 12 team that gets two bids or
- 3:26Speaker 2: an ACC team that gets two bids? And, you know,
- 3:30Speaker 2: so I think right now you're probably talking, you know, Miami,
- 3:33Speaker 2: Texas Tech, BYU, and Wake would be the four teams
- 3:37Speaker 2: fighting for those three bids. And there's one easy way
- 3:40Speaker 2: to take care of that. You just keep winning football games.
- 3:42Speaker 2: And right now, Wake is playing at a really, really
- 3:45Speaker 2: high level. And all the other teams they're competing with
- 3:50Speaker 2: in the ACC– I think Wake is the one team
- 3:54Speaker 2: that's good on both sides of the football.
- 3:57Speaker 1: That's a great point.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I think SMU has a great offense. A lot of
- 4:04Speaker 2: these teams are really strong on one side of the ball.
- 4:08Speaker 2: And the reason Miami is the team they are is
- 4:10Speaker 2: they're really strong on both sides of the ball. But
- 4:13Speaker 2: you'd say Wake is the one team that can score
- 4:17Speaker 2: a lot of points and hold you down as well.
- 4:20Speaker 1: No doubt. We're talking to Dave Clawson, ACC Network, talking,
- 4:24Speaker 1: of course, some ACC football. Carolina gets a big win,
- 4:28Speaker 1: Belichick's first win over a ranked team at UNC. But,
- 4:32Speaker 1: you know, it does feel like they're still limited a
- 4:36Speaker 1: bit in terms of what they can do offensively, but
- 4:38Speaker 1: they found a way to win. They're clearly better than
- 4:41Speaker 1: last year, Dave. Do you think there's more big wins
- 4:44Speaker 1: where that came from this year for Carolina?
- 4:47Speaker 2: I do. I've watched them on film a lot this year.
- 4:52Speaker 2: I had them live once against East Tennessee State. And,
- 4:55Speaker 2: you know, people will talk about, well, look what Gio
- 4:59Speaker 2: Lopez is doing with Wake compared to Carolina. For what
- 5:03Speaker 2: North Carolina wants to do, you know, Billy Edwards probably
- 5:07Speaker 2: fits their offensive system better. And, you know, Bill Belichick,
- 5:12Speaker 2: you know, first of all, is a great head coach,
- 5:15Speaker 2: but You know, he really is known as a defensive expert.
- 5:20Speaker 2: You know, he won a couple of Super Bowls as
- 5:21Speaker 2: a defensive coordinator. And they are built right now to
- 5:26Speaker 2: play defense, run the football. They have a veteran quarterback
- 5:31Speaker 2: that doesn't make a lot of mistakes and doesn't turn
- 5:34Speaker 2: it over much. And they've got a formula there. They
- 5:37Speaker 2: are a much improved football team. And, you know, Bill
- 5:41Speaker 2: Belichick's a smart football coach. And I think... He's made
- 5:45Speaker 2: the adjustment to college football, and that was a really
- 5:48Speaker 2: good win they had against Pitt. They made some huge
- 5:52Speaker 2: defensive stops, and they can run the football and play defense.
- 5:58Speaker 3: Coach, one staple of the Wolfpack and the Dave Doran
- 6:01Speaker 3: run has been the consistency of the program and kind
- 6:05Speaker 3: of knowing each year who they are. This year it's
- 6:08Speaker 3: not been that way. It's been inconsistent. What do you
- 6:10Speaker 3: think has led to them being inconsistent this year in
- 6:13Speaker 3: some of their games?
- 6:16Speaker 2: Well, it's hard to tell. I mean, again, that's a
- 6:22Speaker 2: hard question for me. I really like Dave and have
- 6:25Speaker 2: a ton of respect for Dave. And such a big
- 6:28Speaker 2: deal was made of them keeping the quarterback, C.J.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Bailey.
- 6:33Speaker 2: But people forget that he lost his best offensive lineman.
- 6:37Speaker 2: They lost Hollywood Smothers. And I think part of the
- 6:43Speaker 2: issue with college football right now, is you no longer
- 6:47Speaker 2: have programs, you have teams. And when your team is
- 6:52Speaker 2: switching every year, it almost takes you a month to
- 6:55Speaker 2: figure out what your team is. You know, so for example,
- 7:00Speaker 2: sometimes I'd go through training camp and I'd think like,
- 7:03Speaker 2: you know what, boy, we are really, really good at receiver.
- 7:07Speaker 2: We can throw the ball this year. We're going to
- 7:08Speaker 2: be able to stretch people and get the ball thrown
- 7:10Speaker 2: down the field. And then you start playing games against
- 7:13Speaker 2: other teams and you find out that, you know what,
- 7:16Speaker 2: we're really not that good at receiver. We're just that
- 7:18Speaker 2: bad at corner. And maybe we're better in some areas
- 7:23Speaker 2: than we thought. So you always go into a year thinking,
- 7:26Speaker 2: this is the makeup of our football team. And then
- 7:30Speaker 2: kind of a month into it, it changes. And, you know,
- 7:34Speaker 2: I think that's one of the things that all teams
- 7:37Speaker 2: struggle with, but You know, obviously the Vanderbilt loss was
- 7:41Speaker 2: a huge loss, but then they come back, they beat App,
- 7:45Speaker 2: they come back, they have a great win against Louisville,
- 7:48Speaker 2: and Wake Forest is a really good football team. I
- 7:51Speaker 2: think what Wake Forest did to NC State, they're going
- 7:53Speaker 2: to do to a lot of people, and if anybody
- 7:56Speaker 2: who follows the ACC should know one thing, is Dave
- 8:00Speaker 2: Dorn and NC State out. His teams always get better
- 8:03Speaker 2: in the second half of the season.
- 8:05Speaker 1: They do. That's true. That's true. All right, last thing
- 8:07Speaker 1: I want to ask you about, Coach, is what we've
- 8:12Speaker 1: seen in terms of coaches in this era of NIL.
- 8:15Speaker 1: be able to really make quick turnarounds. Obviously, Cignetti is
- 8:19Speaker 1: one that is pointed to, but heck, Eric Morris, Oklahoma State,
- 8:22Speaker 1: Will Stein, Kentucky, Bob Chesney at UCLA. What do you
- 8:27Speaker 1: think of what we're seeing from coaches that are able
- 8:30Speaker 1: to go there? And does that make it harder on coaches'
- 8:35Speaker 1: job security? Because fan bases and boosters will look and say, hey,
- 8:39Speaker 1: if we make a change, we can do what those
- 8:41Speaker 1: schools are doing. How do you view this development in
- 8:44Speaker 1: this new era?
- 8:46Speaker 2: Okay, so you have like five questions in one there. Okay,
- 8:51Speaker 2: so first off, the Cignetti model, if you can see,
- 8:56Speaker 2: it's changed how people hire people, right? That before it
- 9:00Speaker 2: was really hard for a group of five head coach
- 9:03Speaker 2: to get a power four job. Now those hires have
- 9:07Speaker 2: become very popular because those coaches can bring 15 or
- 9:11Speaker 2: 20 players with them. So Cignetti brought a bunch of
- 9:15Speaker 2: JMU players with him. Jake Dickard brought a bunch of
- 9:19Speaker 2: guys from Washington State with him. Bob Chesney brought guys
- 9:24Speaker 2: from JMU with him. Eric Morris was able to bring
- 9:28Speaker 2: players from North Texas with him. So you're almost at
- 9:32Speaker 2: an advantage when you're a new head coach because you
- 9:36Speaker 2: can now bring 10, 15, 20 players with you that
- 9:40Speaker 2: understand your culture, that can help teach the other players
- 9:43Speaker 2: in your locker room, this is what this head coach
- 9:46Speaker 2: is about, and help sell it to the rest of
- 9:49Speaker 2: the team. Hey, we won doing this at Washington State.
- 9:52Speaker 2: We won doing this at JMU. So the whole idea
- 9:56Speaker 2: of it's three or four years before it's your program
- 9:58Speaker 2: is no longer the case. Okay. So I think that's,
- 10:03Speaker 2: you see more of a hiring trend of hiring, you know,
- 10:07Speaker 2: John Summerall from Tulane goes to Florida. Like in the past,
- 10:12Speaker 2: those group of five guys weren't getting that high level
- 10:15Speaker 2: of a job. Um, And yes, it makes job security
- 10:20Speaker 2: harder because now that you're paying for players, any fan
- 10:26Speaker 2: or anybody that contributes to the payroll expects an immediate result.
- 10:32Speaker 2: And the truth of it is you're paying for the
- 10:34Speaker 2: guys that you used to get free four years ago.
- 10:39Speaker 2: Like everybody's paying. So like because you're paying a player,
- 10:43Speaker 2: it doesn't mean you're getting a better player. It just
- 10:45Speaker 2: requires that much money to get the same player that
- 10:48Speaker 2: a scholarship used to get you. And so it's created
- 10:51Speaker 2: this unrealistic expectation. Like I coached against Matt Campbell in
- 10:59Speaker 2: the Mac. I was the head coach at Bowling Green
- 11:01Speaker 2: and he was at Toledo. And Matt Campbell is a really,
- 11:05Speaker 2: really good football coach. Like to do what he did
- 11:09Speaker 2: at Iowa State, And for all of a sudden, people
- 11:12Speaker 2: at Penn State to be up in arms because halfway
- 11:14Speaker 2: through his first year, he's not undefeated and ranked number
- 11:17Speaker 2: one in the country. That's, again, what Cignetti did at
- 11:22Speaker 2: Indiana and is doing. That's the needle in the haystack.
- 11:27Speaker 2: You're very rarely going to get that. So anyways, again,
- 11:32Speaker 2: you're paying for the same guys you get to get
- 11:35Speaker 2: for free, and I think because of that, fans have
- 11:38Speaker 2: a different expectation immediately of their football coach and their
- 11:41Speaker 2: football team.
- 11:41Speaker 1: That was a great breakdown. It was a great answer
- 11:43Speaker 1: to all five of my questions. Coach, you handled it beautifully. Also, Coach,
- 11:47Speaker 1: my man here is a Penn State fan, so he
- 11:48Speaker 1: feels heard by what you just said. Yeah, I tell you.
- 11:53Speaker 1: You're right. It's tough. It's like, you know, the patience thing.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Everybody can point to, oh, look at him, look at them. Coach,
- 12:00Speaker 1: great stuff as always. And congrats to your daughter as well.
- 12:03Speaker 1: That's an awesome job working for game day.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Yeah, she's been to Tuscaloosa last weekend, Baton Rouge. She's
- 12:12Speaker 2: seen a bunch of college towns, and it's really cool
- 12:16Speaker 2: for me. I used to bring my daughter with me
- 12:18Speaker 2: on away trips. And so, you know, for this to
- 12:24Speaker 2: turn out to be her career choice, I think is just,
- 12:29Speaker 2: I'm really proud of her. And it's kind of neat.
- 12:32Speaker 2: You know, you have all this guilt as a coach
- 12:33Speaker 2: all the time you miss from your family. But to
- 12:36Speaker 2: see that maybe what I did has helped her career,
- 12:40Speaker 2: it's a pretty cool payback.
- 12:41Speaker 1: That's awesome. That's awesome. And tell your pup, your pup
- 12:44Speaker 1: was good on the radio too, Coach.
- 12:45Speaker 3: All right?
- 12:46Speaker 1: We love the passion from your dog as well. Thank you, Coach.
- 12:49Speaker 1: We appreciate it.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Okay, thank you. Thanks for having me on.
- 12:53Speaker 1: Thanks, Coach. All right, be good. There you go. That
- 12:55Speaker 1: is Dave Clawson now with the ACC Network and ESPN.
- 12:59Speaker 1: To what Bone brought up there, his daughter Courtney is
- 13:03Speaker 1: a PR person for College Game Day. That's awesome, yeah.
- 13:06Speaker 1: So there you go. Five questions at once. He got
- 13:09Speaker 1: you on that one. He got me on that, and
- 13:11Speaker 1: he also did not really like the dog joking. It
- 13:15Speaker 1: didn't go well for me. I tried to double down.
- 13:17Speaker 1: It didn't really work. You know? No. He's Dave Clawson,
- 13:20Speaker 1: not Dave Pawson. Dave Pawson. You should have told him. Coach,
- 13:26Speaker 1: I got a new nickname for you. Since you love
- 13:28Speaker 1: those pups, Dave Pawson. And just hear the crickets in
- 13:30Speaker 1: the background.
- 13:32Speaker 3: I thought about it, but then I used restraint because
- 13:35Speaker 3: I felt like I wouldn't get a response on that.
- 13:37Speaker 1: That's stuff to my five questions, though. Once he got
- 13:40Speaker 1: done saying, you just asked me five questions. was tremendous.
- 13:42Speaker 1: And it is fascinating all the different ways the game
- 13:45Speaker 1: has changed. I do think, though, we got to watch
- 13:48Speaker 1: these coaches, Bone, that are able to bring guys with them, right?
- 13:52Speaker 1: Like he's talking about. That doesn't really, you know, the
- 13:54Speaker 1: group of five wants. Do they sustain it? Or now Cignetti,
- 13:58Speaker 1: I think that dude's going to sustain. But like, do
- 14:00Speaker 1: they sustain it? Or are they good initially because they
- 14:02Speaker 1: were able to bring a bunch of players with them?
- 14:04Speaker 1: But then those players leave, and then you've got to
- 14:06Speaker 1: bring in your own. You know what I mean? That's
- 14:08Speaker 1: kind of the thing I think we all got to watch. Yeah,
- 14:10Speaker 1: like UCLA's on a heater. Does that.
- 14:13Speaker 3: Does he sustain that? Because that's not been a program
- 14:15Speaker 3: that's found consistency before either. Much like Indiana, people were saying, oh,
- 14:19Speaker 3: is this the new— a lot of connections, right? JMU, is
- 14:22Speaker 3: he going to sustain it or not?
- 14:23Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 14:24Speaker 3: I thought they'd lose to Oregon, so that's another story
- 14:26Speaker 3: to itself though, right?
- 14:27Speaker 1: That was a huge win. How bad was Rayola? We
- 14:29Speaker 1: just got done saying, how lucky are they to be
- 14:31Speaker 1: able to afford a backup quarterback like that? He goes
- 14:34Speaker 1: out there, Bone, and looks so bad, he gets benched. Oh, my.
- 14:39Speaker 1: That game was ugly. There was 10 turnovers in that game, Bone.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Six by Oregon. That game was filthy looking, man.
- 14:45Speaker 3: When we come back, we're going to do an Ask
- 14:46Speaker 3: the Audience, courtesy of QC Mechanical, your local HVAC experts.
- 14:51Speaker 3: College football pumped or pissed. What fans are happy? What
- 14:54Speaker 3: fans are losing their mind? And maybe somebody on the show, Mac,
- 14:58Speaker 3: is doing both those things. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 15:21Speaker 4: It's a hard place to play. I don't judge my
- 15:23Speaker 4: happiness or success on how we play balance. I got
- 15:26Speaker 4: a lot of respect for this place. Nick taught me
- 15:29Speaker 4: a lot. Watching that show the other night, the first
- 15:32Speaker 4: opening one, I have so much respect for him. We
- 15:35Speaker 4: run our program a lot like that. So I tell
- 15:37Speaker 4: those kids, y'all need to tune in and watch the show.
- 15:39Speaker 4: Because the stuff going on in that show is in
- 15:42Speaker 4: Athens right now. It's going on over there all the time.
- 15:44Speaker 4: And it's physical and it's tough and it's accountability. And
- 15:48Speaker 4: that's what he taught me and that's what we're trying
- 15:50Speaker 4: to do.
- 15:51Speaker 1: There you go, Kirby Smart. Very respectful of Alabama Bone.
- 15:58Speaker 1: in front of a microphone, not necessarily in the locker
- 16:01Speaker 1: room pregame. Not Kirby unplugged. My God, if y'all got
- 16:04Speaker 1: to Google, don't do it at work, though, but y'all
- 16:06Speaker 1: got to Google Kirby Smart pregame speech. They found his
- 16:08Speaker 1: postgame speech, too. That one was a doozy as well,
- 16:12Speaker 1: but the pregame speech was so badass. It really was.
- 16:16Speaker 1: And that's the first time Georgia has beaten the first
- 16:19Speaker 1: Kirby regular season win against Bama. But it also, Bone,
- 16:24Speaker 1: is the first win for Georgia at Bama since Nick
- 16:27Speaker 1: Saban's first season at Alabama. It has been a minute. No,
- 16:31Speaker 1: they don't play. It's been a while. No, they don't
- 16:34Speaker 1: play every year. But, yeah, still, like it's– Yeah, that's
- 16:38Speaker 1: crazy that's been that long. That game was a classic.
- 16:41Speaker 1: It really was. And we've got to do some college football,
- 16:45Speaker 1: pumped or pissed. So I know Georgia fans have been
- 16:48Speaker 1: texting in, very happy. I know Alabama fans have probably
- 16:51Speaker 1: ticked about the non-pass interference call. And then you know
- 16:54Speaker 1: we've got to talk, North Carolina, South Carolina, Wake fans
- 16:58Speaker 1: and state fans, if you want to just rip Dave Doran.
- 17:00Speaker 1: I am here for it. What did you think of
- 17:02Speaker 1: Georgia and Bama? You called it. I abstained. I had
- 17:06Speaker 1: a feeling it was going to be that tight. I
- 17:08Speaker 1: think both these teams are really good. Georgia won that
- 17:12Speaker 1: bad boy. What did you make of that game, man?
- 17:15Speaker 1: It was a thriller.
- 17:15Speaker 3: I think two things got proven in that game, that
- 17:18Speaker 3: Georgia is the toughest and best team in the country,
- 17:22Speaker 3: and that Bama is also a contender.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Bama held well, even in a loss.
- 17:27Speaker 3: In this format, you can lose to Georgia, and it
- 17:29Speaker 3: doesn't completely derail Georgia. Your season, you can have one loss,
- 17:33Speaker 3: two losses, especially in that conference, it'd still be all right.
- 17:36Speaker 3: Alabama proved to me, Mac, that they are no doubt
- 17:39Speaker 3: going to be a playoff team as well. And Keelan Russell,
- 17:42Speaker 3: if he's not already, will eventually be, I think, the
- 17:45Speaker 3: best player in the sport. So I think even in
- 17:48Speaker 3: a loss, Bama showed me a lot, just as much
- 17:50Speaker 3: as if they would have won the football game. Listen,
- 17:52Speaker 3: I love the text from UGA girl. She says, I'll
- 17:56Speaker 3: go ahead and answer your question. Bama fans are still
- 17:58Speaker 3: crying about the refs and us dog fans are just
- 18:01Speaker 3: laughing at them. I thought it was a mistake by
- 18:04Speaker 3: the referees. I thought it was P.I. It does look
- 18:07Speaker 3: worse when you slow it down, though. It's easier to see,
- 18:11Speaker 3: but he was there beforehand, and so I would be
- 18:14Speaker 3: mad if I was the Boer or a Bama fan
- 18:17Speaker 3: as well. With that said, though, Bone, I have a
- 18:20Speaker 3: hard time disagreeing when you say that you think Georgia's
- 18:22Speaker 3: the best team in the country, and that is where
- 18:24Speaker 3: they're now ranked in the AP.
- 18:26Speaker 1: And coaches poll. When you can run the football on
- 18:29Speaker 1: Bama like that in their house, Bone, with a third
- 18:33Speaker 1: and fourth string running back, That was huge to not
- 18:37Speaker 1: have Bowens and not have Frazier and run it like that.
- 18:41Speaker 3: That was impressive. The O-line was impressive. And it appeared, Mac,
- 18:45Speaker 3: that Bama had a golly coming up.
- 18:48Speaker 1: It was Georgia. They lost. But then it's at Tennessee.
- 18:52Speaker 1: It's A & M and at LSU.
- 18:54Speaker 3: Well, you look at those three teams right there, Bama's
- 18:57Speaker 3: better than all three of them. So what appeared to
- 18:59Speaker 3: be a lengthy gauntlet, Bama should, I would think, win
- 19:03Speaker 3: all those football games.
- 19:04Speaker 1: I think Bama's still great. I think they're going to
- 19:06Speaker 1: play again at least once, if not twice, honestly. I
- 19:09Speaker 1: think it's one of those matchups you watch and you're like,
- 19:12Speaker 1: we're going to see it again probably. And I was
- 19:15Speaker 1: going to say, Gunnar Stockton was dropping dimes, dude. I
- 19:18Speaker 1: don't know if you can name a more underrated quarterback
- 19:19Speaker 1: than Gunnar Stockton.
- 19:21Speaker 3: No, I fought it for a while. I've tried to say, eh,
- 19:25Speaker 3: you know, but no, I'm in. I think he's that good.
- 19:28Speaker 3: He's a winner, a flat-out winner. He is, man. He is.
- 19:32Speaker 1: There's no doubt. All right, so Georgia fans, we encourage
- 19:35Speaker 1: you to brag. Bama fans, if you want to cry
- 19:38Speaker 1: like UGA girl said, go ahead. We got multiple App
- 19:44Speaker 1: State fans back that are furious right now. And they
- 19:48Speaker 1: should be. That was ugly. You got beat, you know.
- 19:50Speaker 1: scored three points, and the opposing coach did a mudslide
- 19:52Speaker 1: on you. It was. I'm going to wait until I
- 19:56Speaker 1: see the Coastal game on Friday night. Malachi Singleton has
- 20:01Speaker 1: looked so good up until Saturday. He played in a
- 20:04Speaker 1: torrential downpour on Saturday. I don't think the conditions bone
- 20:08Speaker 1: favored App. App is a better passing team than running team.
- 20:13Speaker 1: ODU ran for 200. App couldn't get the running game going.
- 20:16Speaker 1: It was ugly. It was bad. Looked like, actually, it
- 20:19Speaker 1: inebriated me playing quarterback. Yeah. It was bad. It inebriated Mack.
- 20:24Speaker 1: I'm going to give him a benefit of the doubt
- 20:28Speaker 1: and say, let's see how he looks in more normal conditions.
- 20:31Speaker 1: Because that's a hard game. That was the worst weather
- 20:35Speaker 1: game I think I saw, man.
- 20:37Speaker 3: They have a game on Friday night against Coastal, and
- 20:41Speaker 3: then they play JMU after that.
- 20:43Speaker 1: So that could be JMU's undefeated. But it's a little
- 20:46Speaker 1: scary because last year, I remember Swan was playing well
- 20:48Speaker 1: early in the season. By the midway point, you're like,
- 20:52Speaker 1: I thought we could count on Singleton. That was an
- 20:55Speaker 1: ugly game. So I don't blame App fans. It was
- 20:57Speaker 1: hard to watch. It was a brutal game, Boney. It
- 21:00Speaker 1: really was. In a weekend of bad weather, that was
- 21:02Speaker 1: the worst weather of anywhere. That's what I thought, at
- 21:06Speaker 1: least of the Carolinas teams. Rain was coming up from
- 21:08Speaker 1: the ground like they happened to force go. Georgia John says,
- 21:12Speaker 1: Bama has always gotten the calls against Georgia. We get
- 21:15Speaker 1: one now and the world is ending. Etham and go Dawgs.
- 21:18Speaker 1: Sounds like Kirby in that pregame speech. 7 0 4
- 21:21Speaker 1: 5 7 0 9 6 10. Who's pumped. Who's pissed.
- 21:25Speaker 1: Give us a shout out for your college team.
- 21:28Speaker 5: Good.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Or just go ahead and rage about them. If you
- 21:30Speaker 1: want to. Dr. Suave says, don't worry. Notre Dame is
- 21:34Speaker 1: going to get number one soon. How do you feel
- 21:36Speaker 1: about that bone? They're now up to two Miami's three.
- 21:39Speaker 1: In both poles.
- 21:40Speaker 3: Behind Georgia. One of Notre Dame's biggest games of the
- 21:43Speaker 3: season is coming up. It's at BYU. Now, when the
- 21:46Speaker 3: year began, I would have thought, hey, that might be
- 21:48Speaker 3: a spot where Notre Dame slips up. But I have
- 21:50Speaker 3: not been that impressed by BYU. So I think Notre
- 21:54Speaker 3: Dame probably gets by that. I think BYU is a
- 21:56Speaker 3: little overranked right now. Actually, you know what? Notre Dame
- 21:59Speaker 3: probably wishes BYU– it's good that they're ranked there right now.
- 22:04Speaker 3: Notre Dame probably wishes that they would stay in that area.
- 22:06Speaker 3: But I don't think BYU is that good. I don't think–
- 22:10Speaker 3: Some of those Big 12 teams are eventually going to
- 22:12Speaker 3: play themselves out because Utah, BYU, Texas Tech, they're eventually
- 22:16Speaker 3: all going to start to beat each other up. And
- 22:18Speaker 3: I think BYU drops out. I think it starts this weekend.
- 22:23Speaker 3: And where's Georgia losing? That's the question. Like, they're not
- 22:26Speaker 3: losing to Auburn. They're not losing to Florida, you wouldn't think, right?
- 22:30Speaker 1: Although I say this, and college football outcomes are crazy sometimes.
- 22:36Speaker 1: At Ole Miss... Is that where they slip up? They
- 22:41Speaker 1: got Missouri on there, but it's not in Missouri. That's
- 22:44Speaker 1: at home. At South Carolina? You feeling frisky on that
- 22:47Speaker 1: Beamer bus, Bone? We'll take it one game at a
- 22:50Speaker 1: time for right now.
- 22:52Speaker 3: I'm about one win away from calling out Georgia.
- 22:56Speaker 1: I think we got to get to South Carolina. We
- 22:58Speaker 1: got to get to North Carolina winning. Were you fired
- 23:01Speaker 1: up like happy, Bone? Because you've really turned on Beamer. Like,
- 23:05Speaker 1: were you finding yourself, like, real happy the way they
- 23:08Speaker 1: were playing?
- 23:08Speaker 3: No, I was happy, especially for a guy like Sellers,
- 23:10Speaker 3: who deserved that moment in the harbor, and these guys
- 23:13Speaker 3: that have stuck around. And certainly Beamer is a really
- 23:16Speaker 3: good dude. Ive Mack was more, okay, what's going on here?
- 23:21Speaker 3: Is this going to be like A & M from
- 23:24Speaker 3: last year? Is Florida going to go on some crazy run?
- 23:28Speaker 3: Is this the next step? And Beamer blown another game.
- 23:31Speaker 3: They've blown so many games that it took me a
- 23:33Speaker 3: while to really understand that, oh, they're really going to
- 23:35Speaker 3: win this game. I was very cautious about it because
- 23:38Speaker 3: of the past. They blow a lot of games, even
- 23:41Speaker 3: more leads than that. So I was very like, this
- 23:44Speaker 3: is great. Great showing. Can they hold on? And it's
- 23:47Speaker 3: really surprising that the game never really... It was outside
- 23:51Speaker 3: of the first... a couple possessions, they were really in
- 23:54Speaker 3: control of that game. Bailey Stockton scored right away, and
- 23:57Speaker 3: it's like, oh, great, here they go. Y'all didn't give
- 23:59Speaker 3: up any big plays after that. Like, that's your big bugaboo, right,
- 24:02Speaker 3: is big pass plays over the top constantly. And there
- 24:05Speaker 3: was no more after that at all, man. That was
- 24:08Speaker 3: impressive as hell. And Sellers is playing– The last two weeks,
- 24:11Speaker 3: y'all got to give it up to Sellers. This is
- 24:13Speaker 3: what you paid for. This is the way.
- 24:15Speaker 1: And I don't know if the Beamer speech in front
- 24:17Speaker 1: of the team, calling him out, saying, you got to
- 24:19Speaker 1: give me more. I don't know if that had an
- 24:21Speaker 1: effect on him, but he has been demonstratively better the
- 24:24Speaker 1: last couple weeks. And Nick Harbour made plays. Big touchdown,
- 24:28Speaker 1: contested catch bone, 83 yards receiving. Stewart showed up with
- 24:33Speaker 1: a sack and a forced fumble. So, man, I got to–
- 24:37Speaker 1: the guys you paid made plays. I hope it continues.
- 24:42Speaker 3: Sellers has been really good for two games in a
- 24:44Speaker 3: row now. Can that sustain another one? We shall see.
- 24:47Speaker 1: What do you think, Fit Dog, about North Carolina? Fit
- 24:51Speaker 1: came in, Bone, calling out Duke, by the way, before
- 24:53Speaker 1: the show. You feeling frisky, aren't you, Fit?
- 24:58Speaker 5: Hard not to after you got the first ranked win
- 25:00Speaker 5: of the Bill Belichick era. In a game where, Mac,
- 25:03Speaker 5: they could not run the ball.
- 25:04Speaker 1: And you want to be a run-first team. So to
- 25:07Speaker 1: be able to win with 20-yards rushing fit, that says something.
- 25:10Speaker 5: I thought Billy Edwards made the types of plays that
- 25:14Speaker 5: he had to make in that type of game for
- 25:17Speaker 5: us to win. And the defense, after they settled in,
- 25:20Speaker 5: it was not the best start with that fifth-year senior
- 25:24Speaker 5: making his first-ever start in college football. You know, they
- 25:28Speaker 5: ran 31 more plays than Carolina did in the first half, Mac.
- 25:32Speaker 6: And it was a 10-7 game.
- 25:33Speaker 5: And you knew that Bill Belichick had to have a
- 25:35Speaker 5: grin on his face because I thought we were thoroughly outplayed,
- 25:38Speaker 5: outpossessed in the first half, and it was a one-possession game.
- 25:42Speaker 5: It was kind of like what TCU was, where TCU
- 25:44Speaker 5: was clearly the better team in the first half, but
- 25:47Speaker 5: the scoreboard did not reflect that, and they made some
- 25:50Speaker 5: plays in the second half.
- 25:51Speaker 6: Only concern is the secondary.
- 25:54Speaker 1: Trey Miller.
- 25:55Speaker 5: Pretty much done for the year. That came out yesterday.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Done for the year. He was having a good game, too,
- 25:59Speaker 1: before he went out, man.
- 26:00Speaker 5: He ran out as a 91, according to PFF. And
- 26:03Speaker 5: then Caleb Koss, after he ran into the wall and
- 26:07Speaker 5: hit his face on the padding there. Wonder what their
- 26:10Speaker 5: status is going to be for the game coming up.
- 26:12Speaker 5: But this is— Saturday' s big, because if you get that game,
- 26:17Speaker 5: you get to 4-2— I think we're talking about not
- 26:21Speaker 5: only a bowl game, but maybe even a winning season
- 26:23Speaker 5: for Bill Belichick and all the negativity around him has
- 26:28Speaker 5: to be tuned down for at least a little bit.
- 26:30Speaker 1: And now we got some lead up to Carolina and
- 26:32Speaker 1: Duke this week, man. Duke slipped up. Carolina won. I
- 26:36Speaker 1: like the lead up, man.
- 26:37Speaker 3: It would be another upset because Duke's still favored in
- 26:39Speaker 3: the game. What's the point spread, Bone?
- 26:41Speaker 1: Three and a half. Three and a half. They should
- 26:43Speaker 1: still be favored. But it's at Wallace Wade. But you
- 26:45Speaker 1: need Nate Shepard to be healthy, although he had almost
- 26:48Speaker 1: 200 yards total. But clearly he was not healthy, Bone,
- 26:52Speaker 1: on Saturday. Wallace Wade, a.k.a. Carolina North.
- 26:56Speaker 5: Be more Tar Heel fans in the building on Saturday.
- 27:00Speaker 1: More than at your own stadium some days. Unless there's a.
- 27:03Speaker 5: Big basketball scrimmage after the football game and then they.
- 27:06Speaker 1: Might show up. Who are you to talk about that?
- 27:08Speaker 1: Who are you? Answer my question. I'm going to go
- 27:11Speaker 1: Mike Evans here. This man's feeling frisky. Are you checking
- 27:14Speaker 1: the back of his jersey to see who you're talking to? Oh, frog!
- 27:18Speaker 1: It says frog! Thank you.
- 27:23Speaker 6: Oh, man.
- 27:23Speaker 4: 704-5709-610.
- 27:24Speaker 1: He's got that QCB neck. CIA operation says Billy Edwards
- 27:30Speaker 1: is straight booty and everybody knows it. I mean, he made,
- 27:33Speaker 1: first of all, I feel like he was under pressure
- 27:35Speaker 1: a ton again. I feel like it was another game
- 27:38Speaker 1: where he was pressured a bunch. I will say that.
- 27:41Speaker 1: I don't think he has a plethora of great receivers.
- 27:44Speaker 1: Although you saw Easter make the big play. You're seeing
- 27:47Speaker 1: Sadler make a play or two here and there. So
- 27:49Speaker 1: that's getting better. He still makes some doofus-y type mistakes,
- 27:53Speaker 1: but But he made big throws, too, man. He made
- 27:56Speaker 1: big throws. I just thought it was a gritty win
- 27:58Speaker 1: by Carolina. Dare I say, man. Not pretty, but gritty.
- 28:01Speaker 6: Billy Edwards Jr., tough little nut.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Yeah. You give them the tough little nut label? Yeah, man.
- 28:06Speaker 1: That's big. That's big. Who else is fired up? This
- 28:09Speaker 1: Wake fan says, how the heck you taking so long
- 28:12Speaker 1: to get to us? We should be the happiest in
- 28:13Speaker 1: the state.
- 28:14Speaker 3: Oh, we just talked about you two split two guests.
- 28:16Speaker 1: I can't deny that. They've got, they're the best team
- 28:18Speaker 1: in the state. They should be the happiest team in
- 28:20Speaker 1: the state. Are you now, Bone, feeling like, because you
- 28:23Speaker 1: were feeling frisky in the whole Duke-Wake comparison. Do you
- 28:27Speaker 1: think the train has left the station on that? And
- 28:31Speaker 1: Wake is definitely a better team than Duke? Or do
- 28:33Speaker 1: you want to say, let's let this season play out?
- 28:36Speaker 3: We don't know what may happen in a couple weeks
- 28:38Speaker 3: when they play, or a month or whatever. Wake is
- 28:40Speaker 3: the best team in the state right now. Hell, they're
- 28:41Speaker 3: getting some playoff hype. So the whole problem was that
- 28:45Speaker 3: big Deke Energy guy was talking about Wake being the
- 28:48Speaker 3: best program. There's a difference in programs in this particular year.
- 28:52Speaker 3: Right now, there's no doubt, though, that Wake is the
- 28:55Speaker 3: best program. I can't take that away from them. Their
- 28:57Speaker 3: only loss is to Miami, and they pushed them in
- 28:59Speaker 3: that game. So, they beat Louisville. Hell, their Purdue win
- 29:03Speaker 3: looks better and better because Purdue's been balling out lately. So,
- 29:06Speaker 3: their run would not produce looking even better than it was. Dude,
- 29:08Speaker 3: they have stars. Gio Lopez and Hernandez.
- 29:11Speaker 1: I mean, you've got Mensah and Tony in the conference.
- 29:17Speaker 1: Other than that, those are two of the biggest stars
- 29:20Speaker 1: in the damn conference. And their front, their defensive front,
- 29:24Speaker 1: gets after you. It's stuffed State's running game. State really
- 29:27Speaker 1: missed Duke Scott. State also is missing four O-linemen from
- 29:30Speaker 1: the start of the season. So even though Dave Doran
- 29:33Speaker 1: is frustrating me, Bo, and deserves to be called out
- 29:36Speaker 1: for what's happening in these games where you're blowing leads...
- 29:40Speaker 1: and even though you deny it, it appears the other
- 29:42Speaker 1: team's adjusting and you ain't. That offensive line injury situation
- 29:47Speaker 1: is killing them, too, man. They see Scotty Hazleton also
- 29:50Speaker 1: needs a lot of love, too. Big time.
- 29:52Speaker 3: He's a lifer, was in the NFL for a while,
- 29:55Speaker 3: has been in college football for 30 years. So he's
- 29:58Speaker 3: not like some young kid new to the scene. But
- 30:00Speaker 3: Scotty Hazleton with that defense has done an unbelievable job.
- 30:04Speaker 1: Big time, dude.
- 30:05Speaker 5: What do we do to address Deke Nation, though? What
- 30:08Speaker 5: about it? They have six fans. They're all annoying as hell.
- 30:11Speaker 5: They're a bunch of front-running frogs.
- 30:13Speaker 1: How are they annoying? They finally got something to be
- 30:15Speaker 1: happy about.
- 30:15Speaker 6: Where are they when their team is just eh?
- 30:18Speaker 5: Like, dude, credit to all the other schools in the state,
- 30:21Speaker 5: North Carolina, Duke, state fans. When they're 7-5, they're on
- 30:25Speaker 5: here complaining. They're on here fussing after losses. I mean,
- 30:30Speaker 5: Wake Forest shows up.
- 30:31Speaker 1: They're 5-1.
- 30:32Speaker 6: So we've got a long way to go in this season.
- 30:34Speaker 1: Just enjoy the season.
- 30:39Speaker 3: I'm not saying for basketball, obviously, your fan base always
- 30:43Speaker 3: shows up. There are plenty of times where. The Heels fans. Oh,
- 30:46Speaker 3: they check out a lot.
- 30:48Speaker 6: The Complainer and Chief has been there since day.
- 30:50Speaker 2: One, baby.
- 30:50Speaker 1: That's one dude. He took off.
- 30:51Speaker 5: Rounder's been there since day one. Byron Goodman's been there
- 30:55Speaker 5: since day one.
- 30:56Speaker 1: He hates football.
- 30:57Speaker 3: Complainer and Chief took off the whole last football season,
- 30:59Speaker 3: by the way. Was there until August and never came back.
- 31:02Speaker 3: This is rich.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Fitty acting like Tar Heel fans don't just slide over
- 31:06Speaker 1: to basketball. Like, it's nothing.
- 31:08Speaker 6: I've been here five years. Give me one example.
- 31:11Speaker 1: It's they're all over the place. All over the place.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Just in general, quit acting like you have Georgia Bulldog
- 31:19Speaker 1: fans at Carolina. Like get the hell out of here.
- 31:23Speaker 1: If they would have lost a Pittsburgh, you were one
- 31:24Speaker 1: of them. And you ain't half the football fan Flounder
- 31:28Speaker 1: is when it comes to Carolina. Oh, shut up.
- 31:29Speaker 3: I'm so sick.
- 31:30Speaker 1: You ain't half the football fan. I'm so sick and
- 31:32Speaker 1: tired of that narrative. Basketball your thing. He's only a
- 31:35Speaker 1: fan because of me.
- 31:36Speaker 6: How do you never would have met me?
- 31:37Speaker 1: He wouldn't be a UNC fan.
- 31:38Speaker 3: But he cares more about the football. What about the
- 31:41Speaker 3: Mets fan and all the other teams that you picked
- 31:42Speaker 3: up from him?
- 31:43Speaker 6: Who cares?
- 31:44Speaker 1: You're not half the man that Flounder is.
- 31:47Speaker 6: Half the pouch he has.
- 31:48Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to say, what do you mean
- 31:49Speaker 1: by that? Oh, my goodness.
- 31:51Speaker 3: Anyway.
- 31:52Speaker 6: Come on.
- 31:52Speaker 1: Good times, y'all. Good times.
- 31:54Speaker 3: When we come back, it's the wrap up. We got
- 31:56Speaker 3: you set for Monday night football, baseball in action as well.
- 32:01Speaker 3: And so much more. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Second down. Burrow, again, wants a bunch. Oh! Jamar Chase,
- 32:35Speaker 1: you're kidding! Good going! A 45-yard touchdown. There you go.
- 32:43Speaker 1: That is EC, baby. Eric Collins doing his one NFL
- 32:47Speaker 1: game for Fox of the season. He got to do Cincy, Miami,
- 32:52Speaker 1: and call a 45-yard touchdown pass to Jamar Chase, as
- 32:57Speaker 1: only EC would do. That was good to hear, Bone,
- 32:59Speaker 1: but I'm about ready to hear him call Hornets games
- 33:02Speaker 1: in the regular season. We're nine days away from the
- 33:05Speaker 1: opener at the Hives.
- 33:06Speaker 3: Such a good dude back the other day. He was
- 33:07Speaker 3: talking about doing NFL games and how— He likes to
- 33:11Speaker 3: do one because he doesn't want to step on the
- 33:13Speaker 3: other broadcaster's toes. So it's just such a class individual.
- 33:16Speaker 3: He probably could do more. Fox would probably say, hey,
- 33:20Speaker 3: come on in. But he doesn't want to mess up
- 33:23Speaker 3: the people that are doing the NFL all year. So
- 33:24Speaker 3: that's such a first class guy. That's very cool, man.
- 33:27Speaker 3: Very cool.
- 33:28Speaker 1: By the way, Alex in Steel Creek wants us to
- 33:31Speaker 1: shout out Johnson C. Smith, 5-1, 4-0 in the conference.
- 33:35Speaker 1: And their last three games, they have outscored their opponents 120-20.
- 33:40Speaker 1: That is some butt whooping right there. That is some
- 33:43Speaker 1: butt whooping. So throw them in. Of course, fans should
- 33:46Speaker 1: be fired up. A lot of Kentucky fans. Phinney ought
- 33:50Speaker 1: to cut a promo on them. A lot of Kentucky
- 33:52Speaker 1: fans chiming in. One guy very proud of his 15th
- 33:56Speaker 1: ranked Kentucky Wildcats. Yeah, I underestimated this team, dude. Like, they...
- 34:03Speaker 1: This team is good. Minchie's better than I thought. And
- 34:06Speaker 1: Will Stein, the set of onions on that dude to
- 34:09Speaker 1: do it again, Bone, and go for the win down
- 34:13Speaker 1: one after you score a touchdown in overtime and pull
- 34:15Speaker 1: it off by the exact same score is some legendary
- 34:19Speaker 1: onion having stuff, dude.
- 34:21Speaker 3: Big old Kentucky onions. God, that is freaking good. Big
- 34:24Speaker 3: old Vidalius. That's as deep as my range goes on
- 34:28Speaker 3: my onion knowledge.
- 34:29Speaker 1: That's good onion knowledge.
- 34:29Speaker 3: That's more than I got. Well, Outback has the Blumens.
- 34:33Speaker 3: That's more than I got. And you got your Vidalius.
- 34:35Speaker 3: Got your onion rings.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Thank you for all that. By the way, coming up
- 34:41Speaker 1: in sports tonight, you got both LCS series. Dodgers will
- 34:45Speaker 1: try to tie up Milwaukee tonight. That's five o'clock start
- 34:50Speaker 1: game two, game one of the ALCS. Guardians raise if
- 34:54Speaker 1: you stop paying any attention to the very weird American League.
- 34:59Speaker 1: There it is. That's not the American League I grew
- 35:01Speaker 1: up with. I grew up with... The Yankees. The Yankees
- 35:05Speaker 1: and the Sox. Anyway, what else do we got, Bone Man? Rams-Bills.
- 35:10Speaker 1: Tonight should be a hell of a Monday night game.
- 35:13Speaker 1: And you should consider, if you're a Panther fan, slipping
- 35:16Speaker 1: over to the Manning cast tonight because they will have
- 35:20Speaker 1: Bryce on. Bryce is doing his 300th national TV interview, Bone,
- 35:24Speaker 1: in a week, I believe, tonight. That's just a rough guesstimate,
- 35:28Speaker 1: but very cool. We get to see him cut it
- 35:29Speaker 1: up with the Mannings, talk ball tonight with the Mannings. Mack,
- 35:32Speaker 1: I know this is not shocking news. Complainer in chief
- 35:36Speaker 1: is not the brightest bulb in the bunch, is he?
- 35:39Speaker 1: I said that he skipped all of Heal's football season
- 35:41Speaker 1: last year, right? He wanted to prove to me that
- 35:44Speaker 1: he was around last football season. So we sent in
- 35:47Speaker 1: a text from last November talking about... caleb wilson i
- 35:54Speaker 1: mean what are we doing here i didn't say you
- 35:57Speaker 1: were not you weren't dead so what you just proved
- 36:00Speaker 1: my point the text you found was you in november
- 36:02Speaker 1: talking caleb wilson oh chiefy baby chief he just continues
- 36:09Speaker 1: to deliver humor whether he's trying to or not though
- 36:11Speaker 1: i don't.
- 36:12Speaker 3: Think he always really thinks things through all the way
- 36:14Speaker 3: or he's high as a kite.
- 36:15Speaker 1: Depending on the day i love him though i'll be Yeah,
- 36:18Speaker 1: he is a trip. Oh, don't let him know that bone.
- 36:20Speaker 1: He gives me joy.
- 36:22Speaker 3: He makes me feel smarter about myself. And I'm also
- 36:25Speaker 3: not the brightest bulb.
- 36:26Speaker 1: In the in the in the in the shed.
- 36:28Speaker 3: By the way, speaking of the Hornets tool that.
- 36:32Speaker 1: We were talking about, I'll just move on from that
- 36:34Speaker 1: one right there. Speaking of the Hornets bone, shout out
- 36:37Speaker 1: to Hannah Steinbach. Not for what he did in the game.
- 36:40Speaker 1: He had some offensive rebounds. He had a couple moments
- 36:42Speaker 1: last night. But shout out to Hannes Steinbach. He won
- 36:44Speaker 1: the rookie dance-off challenge bone at Purple and Teal Day
- 36:48Speaker 1: the other day. Had some dang moves, baby. Some moves
- 36:51Speaker 1: that I may need to steal for our next victory dance,
- 36:54Speaker 1: which I hope is a week from today. A German
- 36:57Speaker 1: butter churn, maybe? He had that Oktoberfest dance going, baby.
- 37:03Speaker 1: So anyway, credit to him. All right, let's read some
- 37:06Speaker 1: of these texts here before we exit. Feel free to
- 37:08Speaker 1: keep sending the text in, y'all. We do value them.
- 37:13Speaker 2: 704-570-9610.
- 37:14Speaker 1: If you want to jump in here, Fort Millcaniac says, Cleveland,
- 37:17Speaker 1: Tampa Bay sounds like the AAA championship instead of the ALCS.
- 37:22Speaker 1: I would love to mock the current state of the
- 37:24Speaker 1: American League, but my team couldn't even make the playoffs
- 37:26Speaker 1: in this wretched league. My team got stuck. swept out
- 37:28Speaker 1: of there by one of them all right let's see
- 37:31Speaker 1: what else we have going on here 704-570-9610 uh texter
- 37:37Speaker 1: says uh finney don't all tarheel fans root for app
- 37:40Speaker 1: football or is that just is that just luke combs.
- 37:45Speaker 5: We're not going after Luke Combs on this fine radio establishment.
- 37:49Speaker 5: Most at football fans are Carolina basketball fans.
- 37:54Speaker 1: 704 number says, how with a straight face did Finney
- 37:58Speaker 1: just blast Wake Forest fans for not being around when
- 38:02Speaker 1: times are hard in football? I have never gotten one
- 38:06Speaker 1: of my Carolina fans to talk football when the team
- 38:09Speaker 1: has a losing record. There you go, Finn. There you go, Finn.
- 38:12Speaker 1: That was rich, Finn. Matt, we have some breaking conference news.
- 38:16Speaker 3: James Madison and their board of visitors has voted to
- 38:21Speaker 3: terminate its Sunbelt Conference Athletics membership, and they are going
- 38:25Speaker 3: to join the American by July of 2028.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Okay, there you go. That's a step up.
- 38:30Speaker 3: That's a sports program that probably deserves to move up
- 38:33Speaker 3: the way they are.
- 38:34Speaker 1: There you go. And we'll see if Billy Napier becomes
- 38:36Speaker 1: the latest coach. Although he's had a group of five chance.
- 38:40Speaker 1: But does he parlay the JMU job? Wolfpack, there's your
- 38:43Speaker 1: guy right there. People are already saying it on the
- 38:45Speaker 1: text line. I can't imagine that's the Wolfpack fan's choice, though.
- 38:49Speaker 1: Can it be? I mean, things look so bad in Florida.
- 38:51Speaker 1: Don't look at me. I don't need a new coach.
- 38:53Speaker 1: I'm safe right now. Somebody called me, not Mabel, somebody
- 38:57Speaker 1: called Murphy a B, right? On social media. And I said, well,
- 39:01Speaker 1: it would have been correct about Mabel. And the text
- 39:04Speaker 1: line got angry at me. Somebody told Kenny Hall told
- 39:07Speaker 1: me the ghost of Mabel is going to make Mac
- 39:09Speaker 1: pee himself all over his car on his drive home. Mabel,
- 39:14Speaker 1: you know what? I meant Mabes. I didn't mean the
- 39:16Speaker 1: one way. I just meant the literal, like, female dog.
- 39:18Speaker 1: You may do that anyway. Let's be honest. It may
- 39:19Speaker 1: not be Mabel's doing. Bebop checked in, despite the fact
- 39:23Speaker 1: that it was a great Sunday yesterday for Panther fans
- 39:26Speaker 1: with the Saints and Falcons losing. Bebop checked in to
- 39:29Speaker 1: tell us that. this week is a trap game against
- 39:31Speaker 1: the Eagles. If you wonder what the Bop thought. What
- 39:34Speaker 1: did the Bob think? Shocking. Shocking that Bob has a
- 39:38Speaker 1: negative feeling about a Panther football game coming up. Bob's
- 39:42Speaker 1: lost his way, though. He's really searching right now for
- 39:44Speaker 1: some stuff.
- 39:44Speaker 2: He is.
- 39:45Speaker 1: He's trying hard, man. He must not like this Bryce
- 39:47Speaker 1: Mediator thing. That's supposed to be killing him every interview.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Steven in Huntersville says the Eagles are going to be
- 39:53Speaker 1: emotionally and physically drained from the Jaguars game, and the
- 39:57Speaker 1: Panthers win two score galore. I'm not going that. The
- 40:01Speaker 1: defense is still good. I'm not going that far. You
- 40:03Speaker 1: don't have any galore plans? I'm not galoring. Phinney, you
- 40:06Speaker 1: got any galore plans for this week? Three sports galore.
- 40:10Speaker 1: I'm galoring. You going galoring up?
- 40:15Speaker 6: We're going to galore Philly, and we're going to get
- 40:17Speaker 6: Sirianni fired.
- 40:18Speaker 1: If I ever say anything about multiple score galore, just
- 40:21Speaker 1: smack me. All right? Just smack me. I want to
- 40:24Speaker 1: go one point galore.
- 40:25Speaker 6: Can you say something about multiple score galore, then?
- 40:29Speaker 1: Someone said, Bone, who is your Chinese food dealer? Where
- 40:32Speaker 1: do you get the good good? I'm not giving that up.
- 40:37Speaker 1: Somebody says, did Jaden Daniels bet on a tie? It's
- 40:41Speaker 1: one of those things where it's like we got to
- 40:44Speaker 1: check your dang DraftKings account. It really is. All right,
- 40:48Speaker 1: we got to get out of here, y'all. We got
- 40:49Speaker 1: to stop yapping. So you know who? The fit dog
- 40:52Speaker 1: and his young guns can do some yapping. They're filling
- 40:55Speaker 1: in for Colin, who is out this week. So you
