- 0:48Speaker 5: Arches in a rhythm all day long. Credit to the
- 0:51Speaker 5: Ohio State leafense who kept him off balance. But I
- 0:53Speaker 5: guarantee you, Peyton arch I should say we'll have a
- 0:57Speaker 5: bounce back game next week.
- 0:58Speaker 4: I believe it. I believe that aike.
- 1:01Speaker 1: Goes like that high and then everyone leaves, and then
- 1:05Speaker 1: that second week and relax.
- 1:06Speaker 4: Yeah, you knowday.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Bringing coach Corso a specialty helmet.
- 1:11Speaker 4: Pretty cool today.
- 1:13Speaker 1: Every team that Lee Corso played or coached for one today, Wow,
- 1:18Speaker 1: every single one. Crazy marilynd Louisville, FSU, Navy, Indiana, Northern Illinois,
- 1:24Speaker 1: all of them won.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Wow. A very cool moment today. The legend man, He's
- 1:29Speaker 4: a legend. All the coverage all before, so big legend.
- 1:33Speaker 1: LSU Clemson another battle of two top ten teams. Garrett
- 1:36Speaker 1: Neusmeyer and the ninth rank Tigers down early to the
- 1:40Speaker 1: Clemson Tigers.
- 1:42Speaker 2: You had your eye all over this one, Champ.
- 1:43Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I mean anytime SEC is playing a big
- 1:47Speaker 6: game like this, you you kind of know, like something,
- 1:51Speaker 6: it's gonna be back and forth, like same with Texas
- 1:54Speaker 6: and Ohio State. I did not think Clemson would get
- 1:57Speaker 6: pushed around like this, LSU.
- 1:59Speaker 4: Look for real.
- 2:00Speaker 1: First season opener win for LSU since Joe Burrow was
- 2:04Speaker 1: at the Helm in twenty nineteen. Again, you're not eliminated
- 2:08Speaker 1: from playoff contention.
- 2:09Speaker 2: But what does this mean for Brian Kelly's fotch.
- 2:12Speaker 3: It means that they have a great deal of confidence.
- 2:16Speaker 3: In previous years they lost the first game of the season.
- 2:19Speaker 3: This guy is really getting down.
- 2:24Speaker 4: I guess that's what you call it. They are.
- 2:27Speaker 3: At CC right now. You have to worry about LSU.
- 2:31Speaker 3: One thing you used to be able to count on
- 2:33Speaker 3: is they are tricked the first game off and then
- 2:35Speaker 3: got a Deacons outside of a hole.
- 2:37Speaker 4: Oh it's different.
- 2:39Speaker 2: Now it's funny. Joe Burrow. He's having those problems with
- 2:42Speaker 2: the Bengals right now. Let's see if they can flip
- 2:44Speaker 2: it around Alabama.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Florida State eighth ranked Alabama, but Keziah Holmes and the
- 2:50Speaker 1: Seminoles set the tone early twenty four to seven. Ty
- 2:54Speaker 1: Simpson trying to bring them back to Kiyo. This has
- 2:58Speaker 1: to be fun for you, so I'll let you.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Very fun, no baby, And look, we give Castelano a
- 3:06Speaker 3: lot of credit, but this was all about the Gus
- 3:09Speaker 3: Buss Baby, Gus MAVs on offensive coordinate. I thought he
- 3:12Speaker 3: put together a great game plan. He wasn't afraid because
- 3:15Speaker 3: his quarterback wasn't afraid.
- 3:17Speaker 5: I'll tell you what to man. That defense was fi
- 3:20Speaker 5: Zi Cole. They were downhill. They was hitting Alabama in
- 3:23Speaker 5: the mouth, and I don't think they were ready to
- 3:25Speaker 5: compete with the level of physicality that Florida State was
- 3:28Speaker 5: ready to compete with Today.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Tommy Castellanos came down from Boston College made the comment.
- 3:33Speaker 2: They don't have saving anymore.
- 3:34Speaker 1: They got nothing for me to have that year last year,
- 3:38Speaker 1: so disappointing to come back and gain one in set
- 3:41Speaker 1: the tone. Florida State is back in. This one's for you,
- 3:45Speaker 1: Champ Marshall. Georgia runaway.
- 3:47Speaker 6: Yeah, man, this they did exactly what we expected them
- 3:50Speaker 6: to do. Go out here and dominate a team you're
- 3:52Speaker 6: supposed to be my body. I think for Georgia, you
- 3:56Speaker 6: just wanted to see your quarterback play Flood like you
- 3:59Speaker 6: wanted to. He'll play with confidence, and I think Gunna
- 4:02Speaker 6: Stockton look really good today.
- 4:04Speaker 4: Now, of course the.
- 4:05Speaker 6: Competition wasn't what the SEC will present and in the
- 4:08Speaker 6: upcoming weeks.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's always a good.
- 4:11Speaker 6: Confidence booster going forward to see your young quarterback or
- 4:14Speaker 6: at least inexperienced quarterback play well.
- 4:17Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 4:17Speaker 1: I think you look at the top twenty five in total,
- 4:20Speaker 1: the number one team in the nation falls, which I
- 4:22Speaker 1: think is symbolic heading into this year, it seems like
- 4:25Speaker 1: there are so many teams that could be the best
- 4:27Speaker 1: team in the country. Penn State looked really good of course,
- 4:30Speaker 1: Ohio State, Clemson getting their wins, Georgia.
- 4:33Speaker 2: We haven't seen Notre Dame yet.
- 4:35Speaker 1: But from a big twelve perspective, who are the teams
- 4:38Speaker 1: that maybe you guys have seen. I know you already
- 4:40Speaker 1: said Kansas and Arizona State. Who are the teams that
- 4:44Speaker 1: you think could possibly be at that level?
- 4:46Speaker 4: Vick Well, I like Arizona State.
- 4:47Speaker 5: I think they have all the tools both offensively and
- 4:50Speaker 5: defensively to really make that run. I look at Kansas State,
- 4:53Speaker 5: if they can continue to write the ship and continue
- 4:55Speaker 5: to play better. I know they got off to a
- 4:59Speaker 5: rough start, but if they can continue to play better,
- 5:01Speaker 5: something could happen there.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Like Iowa State, I think the state is tough.
- 5:04Speaker 5: They're tough, and then you know, Rocco Beck is a
- 5:07Speaker 5: guy that can lead a football team.
- 5:09Speaker 1: They lose two thousand yard receivers to the NFL and
- 5:12Speaker 1: they just go, all right.
- 5:13Speaker 2: We're going to be tight end based and we're gonna
- 5:15Speaker 2: run it down your throat. Like that's just a testament
- 5:17Speaker 2: to their coach as well.
- 5:18Speaker 3: I really like Arizona State, and you look at what
- 5:21Speaker 3: they brought back on both sides of the ball. I
- 5:24Speaker 3: want to say at least seventy five eighty percent of production.
- 5:27Speaker 2: Everybody's but station. Yeah. So when you.
- 5:31Speaker 3: Look at their roster and the experience of guys that
- 5:34Speaker 3: has come back, you know, and their star quarterback.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Was just a true freshman last year.
- 5:42Speaker 4: So, Mike, what we're talking about?
- 5:44Speaker 6: Yeah, man, And on top of Arizona State and Kansas
- 5:48Speaker 6: who I mentioned, I mean down the line, man, there's
- 5:50Speaker 6: just so many teams. You mentioned Kansas State. I think
- 5:53Speaker 6: it's all going to come back to defense getting stops.
- 5:57Speaker 2: We talk about.
- 5:58Speaker 6: Offense all day long, yep, but it's really defense that
- 6:00Speaker 6: wins championships. It sounds so cliche, but when you get
- 6:04Speaker 6: in those big games, you gotta get you gotta get
- 6:07Speaker 6: big stops, and that's what's going to determine the outcome
- 6:09Speaker 6: those games.
- 6:10Speaker 1: And the coaching in this conference is unbelievable, not just
- 6:13Speaker 1: from an ex's and o's but also from a SoundBite. Now,
- 6:16Speaker 1: it's interesting because we have our coach translator.
- 6:18Speaker 4: He's right here with.
- 6:21Speaker 1: So if there's a coach not telling the truth is
- 6:24Speaker 1: gonna tell it. We have truth tellers and the big
- 6:27Speaker 1: take the.
- 6:32Speaker 2: Strong We're gonna start off.
- 6:37Speaker 1: It's great when the coaches lose because they want to
- 6:40Speaker 1: tell you the truth.
- 6:40Speaker 2: But they don't. So let's listen to who we listen
- 6:42Speaker 2: to first.
- 6:43Speaker 3: First up, we coach st.
- 6:46Speaker 2: Sarkesha. Let's hear what he said that we'll change. I
- 6:50Speaker 2: always want him to play better. That that's a that's
- 6:53Speaker 2: a job of a coach.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Right and our job is to try to find ways
- 6:55Speaker 1: for all of our guys to play better.
- 6:57Speaker 2: And so for Arch, the expectations.
- 6:59Speaker 5: Were were we're.
- 7:01Speaker 7: Out of control on the outside.
- 7:03Speaker 2: But I'd say, let's finish the book before we before
- 7:06Speaker 2: we judge it.
- 7:07Speaker 7: Right, this is this is one chapter and we got
- 7:09Speaker 7: a long season to go play.
- 7:13Speaker 4: Ours didn't play well.
- 7:14Speaker 3: He didn't And as much as I want to try
- 7:17Speaker 3: to hide it, we haven't seen this type of behavior
- 7:21Speaker 3: from him weekend and week out in practice. I mean
- 7:24Speaker 3: several weeks like this guy was on.
- 7:27Speaker 4: But I get it.
- 7:28Speaker 3: He showed you what he showed you, and we are
- 7:30Speaker 3: where we are. Bottom line is this. It didn't help
- 7:34Speaker 3: with all of the outside expectations that everybody put on
- 7:39Speaker 3: our quarterback, but you know what, it's a civil lining
- 7:44Speaker 3: at the end at this in the second half, as
- 7:47Speaker 3: we picked up the tempo, he made some throws and
- 7:50Speaker 3: the thrones were not as erring as they were in
- 7:53Speaker 3: the first half. So with all of that being said,
- 7:56Speaker 3: don't you judge this book by the cover because we
- 8:00Speaker 3: will come back, all right.
- 8:03Speaker 1: How honest was what Takeyo said was what Sarkus tried.
- 8:08Speaker 4: I think it was pretty honest.
- 8:09Speaker 5: I think it's I mean, TK started off a little slow,
- 8:12Speaker 5: but then he picked up, he picked up the pace
- 8:14Speaker 5: and finished off strong with the book by the cover.
- 8:16Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's all even there. It's all that he
- 8:18Speaker 4: was being nice.
- 8:19Speaker 6: I get it, but but he was He's right on
- 8:22Speaker 6: because this is the first game you played the top
- 8:25Speaker 6: five team, you lost.
- 8:27Speaker 4: A tough, close game.
- 8:29Speaker 6: This might actually help them down the road more than
- 8:31Speaker 6: hurt them. I mean, they just got to take care
- 8:33Speaker 6: of what's in front of them going forward. And that's
- 8:35Speaker 6: that's what I hear him saying.
- 8:36Speaker 1: I think what you said there, we haven't seen arch
- 8:39Speaker 1: look like this. That's what I think everyone's looking at
- 8:41Speaker 1: is the bounce back.
- 8:43Speaker 2: I believe in the bounce pick. But we'll see the
- 8:44Speaker 2: next one up. This is gonna be tough.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Alabama's Kaelin de Boor let's see what he said, oppress her.
- 8:53Speaker 7: There's no excuse about what happened. We set on the
- 8:55Speaker 7: football field, they set on the football field, and we
- 8:57Speaker 7: got to play ball.
- 8:58Speaker 4: You gotta play our style of ball.
- 9:00Speaker 7: And you know last year isn't this year, and it's
- 9:05Speaker 7: gonna be an uphill climb for us. But you can't
- 9:07Speaker 7: think of it in the big scope of things. You
- 9:09Speaker 7: gotta focus on the moment and the next moment is
- 9:12Speaker 7: what happens tomorrow.
- 9:15Speaker 3: Look, fellas, we didn't get it done, and we can
- 9:18Speaker 3: make up whatever excuse that we want to the reality
- 9:22Speaker 3: of it is Florida State played in the same weather
- 9:25Speaker 3: we played in they did. We are behind the eight
- 9:29Speaker 3: ball and it's gonna get tougher because the last time
- 9:33Speaker 3: I check, as I look at this schedule as far
- 9:36Speaker 3: as the games that we have to go play on
- 9:38Speaker 3: the road, we gotta go to Georgia and we gotta
- 9:43Speaker 3: go see leonoris sell Us in Carolina, and we all
- 9:47Speaker 3: know how this The.
- 9:48Speaker 2: Iron Bowl goes in Auburn.
- 9:50Speaker 3: So look, fellas, I need for you to do whatever
- 9:55Speaker 3: you can do because I would like to be here
- 9:57Speaker 3: longer than another year. Okay, I don't appreciate that.
- 10:07Speaker 1: I would have given it a ten if you said, hey,
- 10:10Speaker 1: please stop comparing me to Nick Saban.
- 10:13Speaker 4: This is hard.
- 10:15Speaker 2: I feel like that's what I wanted to say. This
- 10:17Speaker 2: is unreal.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Absolutely did he knew it.
- 10:21Speaker 5: Alabama needs to be nervous, though I would give that
- 10:23Speaker 5: one a seven point.
- 10:25Speaker 4: Alabama needs to be nervous.
- 10:26Speaker 5: Alabama needs to be nervous, mainly because they got persed
- 10:33Speaker 5: in the mouth. The quarterback came out in a statement,
- 10:36Speaker 5: bulletin board material and you've seen it all week long.
- 10:39Speaker 5: However long he said this it was. It was in
- 10:41Speaker 5: your locker room. Screw the coaches. The players had to
- 10:44Speaker 5: get together and be like, we're not gonna let this
- 10:46Speaker 5: guy talk to us like this, whether Nick Saban's here
- 10:49Speaker 5: or not, we are the player. This is Alabama we're
- 10:51Speaker 5: talking about. And then he came in there and mopped
- 10:54Speaker 5: them up in the physicality they did not match up with.
- 10:57Speaker 5: And I'm scared of what Alabama's going to be able
- 10:59Speaker 5: to do because it doesn't get an easier.
- 11:02Speaker 2: You don't see people call their shot against Alabama.
- 11:04Speaker 6: Never, nobody talks to them before the game.
- 11:07Speaker 1: I remember that Bandy kid who was like Alabama's next,
- 11:10Speaker 1: and they were up like fifty six to.
- 11:12Speaker 2: Nothing at a halftime, like yep. That just shows you
- 11:14Speaker 2: where it's at right now.
- 11:16Speaker 3: Man, Pete dis don't the remaining schedule just for them
- 11:20Speaker 3: going on the road. They gotta go to Georgia, you gotta.
- 11:22Speaker 2: Go to play Carolina.
- 11:24Speaker 4: That's on the road.
- 11:25Speaker 3: That's on the road, and they even have even more
- 11:28Speaker 3: hard games just at home.
- 11:29Speaker 4: Exactly, so I listen. Bucket up.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Man, you'll get to borrow Takeio for your press conference.
- 11:37Speaker 4: He is available
