  Speaker 1: game you watched?

  Speaker 1: But they're playing tonight. They're playing the Cincinnati Bengals. Its
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: that Simpson weird vibe game thing.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Simpson.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the ESPN is doing it. It's kind of like, uh.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, they're not doing another one of those weird spinoff
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: things in a different channel.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's one of those deals. Did you just
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: see the promo with a girl in the ESPN is
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: doing all this stuff that weird that she does.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: So let me ask you this, what person on this
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: planet who is already not invested in watching Monday night
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: football is going to go, oh a Simpson's multicast. I'm in,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I'm down, Okay, I want to see Joe and Bert
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: and Homer and no, no, no, one there's nobody. There's nobody,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: nobody's thinking that.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, let me put it to you this way. You're
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: a long suffering Dallas Cowboys fan, you know, watching the
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: way the Cowboys would play this season, wouldn't you at
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: least give some thought to viewing them in an alternate
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: universe so to speak? They did.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: They put Jerrake Jones in an alternate uniforseh see, I
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: would now if it's Manning cast as, Okay, I can
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: learn to them a football. You're probably gonna have some
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: good guests on. Belichick who's gonna announce he's gonna be
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: the unc head coach on the show? Probably you gotta
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: have Michael Irving or Troy Aikman on. But Simpson's multicast,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's almost as bad as the Nickelodeon Slime Game.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like that.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like that that's going on. But the
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Cowboys are playing the Bengals tonight. Hey, we've got a
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: lot to get to on the program this afternoon. We're

  Speaker 1: then you pull up AM thirteen under the zone. You

  Speaker 1: a message up to thirty seconds on the talk back.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: And if you do that, well, Eric again family programming
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: there to try to keep that clean. But that's a
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: couple of ways you can reach out to us among
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the topics to get to. We're gonna hear from Long
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Wrne head coach Steve Sarkisian. Now that the College Football
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Playoff bracket is out, so there's no more speculation about
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: who might be in and who could be in, and
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: who should be in and who should not. The bracket
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: is out, and that of course includes the Texas positioning
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: as the number five seed, the highest ranked highest seeded
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: team that doesn't receive a first round by and they're
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: actually finished number three ranking in it, but because of
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the guaranteed spots that were gobbled up by Boise State
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: and Arizona State, the Long Orange wind up as the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: five seat, and so that means they will have a
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: home game in this first time ever of the twelve
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: team Playoff, first year of it where there will actually
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: be on campus home games, the Longhorns will have one
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: of those, and it comes up on Saturday, December twenty first,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: it'll be a week from this Saturday, and they'll play
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: the Clemson Tigers. It'll be the first time Texas has
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: ever played Clemson in football, and it will have a
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: three o'clock kickoff three o'clock in the afternoon. Shouldn't be
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: any grumbling about start times on that too early or
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: at night, but it might be cold or whatever, three
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: in the afternoon on Saturday December twenty first, and of
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: course we'll have it for you here on your long
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Orange station Sports Radio AM thirteen hundred zone as well
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: as on ninety eight point one fmk vetts, so we'll
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: have it on that at one o three point one FM.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: So all all three of those signals will have the
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: broadcast and our coverage will begin at noon. I'm assuming
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Cameron Parker that you'll be right back at the hook.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Come hang out a Bevo Boulevard there at the winship Circle.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think myself. Hardball and Mark Henry the crew returns.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: So you know, great job done by by Hardball down
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: the fort for us last Saturday at Third Base with
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Rod Baber's Lifetime Long Corn and your former co host
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Craig and Card Karen member DBU and then Norm Wonkins
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: another Lifetime Long Corn as also a fantastic show and
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: hopefully they will be a part of the fold going forward.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: But yeah, the plan is myself hardball and Mark Henry
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: and all his fans coming down asking for pictures will
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: be at Hookam hang out on Beava Boulevard come December
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: twenty first at noon.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Now I understand and I'm right there with you. By
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: the way, Long Wrn fans, So those are disappointed. The
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Long Wars did not win the Southeastern Conference Championship hard
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: fall game. They lose in overtime the Georgia twenty two
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: to nineteen. So they don't earn the conference championship in
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the first year, and they don't receive the first round
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: by and then the trip to New Orleans to play
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: in the Sugar Bowl. That won't happen. However, again the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: highest ranked team that isn't receiving a bye, they will
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: get a home playoff game, which is the first time
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: ever for the college football Playoff to do that.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: So that's kind of exciting.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: So we get to it run it back one more time,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: one more home game at DKR Texas Memorial Stadium, so
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: that'll be cool and looking looking forward to that. And
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: then if they win, then you're in the quarterfinals and
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: it's onto Atlanta. Back to Atlanta for the Chick fil
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: a Peach Bowl. It'd be the first time that Texas
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: will have played in the Peach Bowl, and they would
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: play the Arizona State Sun Devils, champions of the Big
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Twelve Conference. I've been telling you about Arizona State for
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: some time. They've really been coming on. Kenny Dillingham has
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: done an amazing job there for a team that was
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: picked to finish in dead last place in the Big
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Twelve and they win the whole deal. They have a
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: really talented freshman quarterback in Sam Levitt, and they have
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: who I think is one of the best running backs
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: in the country and who I think should have been
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: the offensive player of the year in the Big Twelve.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Both Skataboo excuse me, a Cams Kataboo, Cameron's Kataboo, who
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: had a massive game there in the game in Arlington.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: We have a handful handful of former Long Corns players
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: on their roster too.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So it could be a lot of fun
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: a matchup with Arizona State in Atlanta, and then, of course,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: if they win that, then it's to the semifinals in
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: all probability to face the Oregon Ducks in Arlington at
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Jerry World. After it looked for all the worlds that
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Texas might have to go to Miami and the Orange Bowl.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: But maybe that's one of the blessings in the Skies
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: right now of not winning the SEC is that they
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: could wind up. Now I still have to deal probably
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: with Oregon, but if you get to the final four,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: then it's just up the road in Arlington and Jerry
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: World to play there. So anyway, the path is out there.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: And I guess what I'm saying is and I had
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: several Long Worn fans reach out to me yesterday or
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: say hi to me and everything when I was on
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: the floor for the basketball game against Yukon. And that's
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: a different story than the travel adventures and all that
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: other kind of stuff. But there were folks saying, you know,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: I like our path. I like our path they're talking
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: about as long worn fans. It's it's a workable path
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: for Texas. They've got to get guys healthy and they've
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: got guys banged up. And again we're going to hear
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: from Long wrn's head coach Steve Sarkisian about that. Coming up,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: we'll talk more about the college football playoffs. Yes, we
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: need to discuss the National Football League in addition to
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys, how about that Rams Bills. Oh my damodness,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: it produced something that falls into our inconceivable file. Not
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the Josh Allen numbers. Those are almost inconceivable by themselves.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: First first man in NFL history to pass for three
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: touchdowns and run for three touchdowns in the same game,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: and yet the Rams won. As a Rams fan, so
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: excited about that. But there's other things to discuss in
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: the NFL as well, and we'll get to all of
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: that your questions as well. And also, I know it's
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: probably not in your mind right now it's a college
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: and or NFL football fan, But Baseball's Winter Meetings are
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: underway in Dallas, and there's already been a blockbuster signing.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: You've probably heard by now that Juan Soto is leaving
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: New York for New York. He's leaving the Yankees for
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the Mets. But Gene Watson, our man, our MLB insider
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: from the Chicago White Sox front office, will join us
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: in the four o'clock hour. There may have been more
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: happening by the time we get to Geno, and we'll
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: talk about the things that are going on so far
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: at the Baseball Winter Meetings and the Baseball Winter Meetings
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: were crossing my mind because I stated a different hotel
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: than from the team hotel in Atlanta. I stayed at
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the Marriott Marquee, and the first time I stayed there
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: was nineteen eighty nine, which would have been what thirty
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: five years ago? I guess nineteen eighty nine covering the
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Baseball Winter meetings for KRLD. That was the winter meetings
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: where the Texas Rangers got Nolan Ryan, Julio Franco, and
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: royfail Palmero. All during those Winter meetings in eighty nine,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: it seemed like every time I turned around, there was
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: a news conference coming up. So that went through my
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: mind when I was at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis of
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the weekend. All right, coming up, we'll hear from long
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Warts head coach Steve Sarkesian on this Longhorns Monday. It
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: is a Long Worns Monday. Even though there was new
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: press conference this morning, there was that zoom to hear
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: from sark from yesterday upon the announcement of Texas being
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: in the college football Playoff as the number five seed.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: We'll get to that and more here on Sports Radio
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: AM thirteen under the Zone, where you always listen to
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: us for free on the iHeartRadio app.
