0:06
[SPEAKER_01]: You are listening to the IU report with Grant Shows and My Cutsal.
0:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Their reaction to IU's 55 to nothing win over Howard.
0:15
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's only on the Central Indiana Sports Report.
0:21
[SPEAKER_02]: My Cutsal Indiana wins 55 to nothing today over Howard.
0:29
[SPEAKER_02]: I was gonna go to the game and it was gonna take my sister she decided it 10 o'clock last night She didn't want to go so you know, I had to you know, I cooled off.
0:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I crashed out, but I cooled off I decided you know, I don't stay home.
0:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Why's the full flight today stay home?
0:46
[SPEAKER_02]: There was no point in going The way I would describe it in the animals just looked like they were just out there running plays.
0:55
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean
0:57
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't even know how it actually was there.
0:59
[SPEAKER_03]: It could have been a hologram on TV to be honest.
1:02
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they just ran it down their throat.
1:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Josh Hoover looked good in the past and game again.
1:08
[SPEAKER_02]: But, you know, they're getting 1% better.
1:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Kurt's dignity felt a little bit better walking away from it.
1:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Today, then he did last so he grew up to think it's a good sign.
1:17
[SPEAKER_02]: And I feel a lot better about it too, and this team's just improving day by day.
1:23
[SPEAKER_03]: We spent about eight minutes of a 30 minute podcast preview of the game discussing the game and I have a feeling that might be six more minutes than we spent on the post game because what is there to really talk about I mean it Yeah, really busy.
1:40
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't have to see that's what there is the doctor.
1:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Charlie Becker hasn't struck a husband pose against an HBCU this year on Mike Malikai Tony.
1:55
[SPEAKER_03]: 25 to five, I think, ended up being the first downs.
1:59
[SPEAKER_03]: 555 total yards to 50 something for Howard.
2:05
[SPEAKER_03]: It played out exactly as I expected.
2:09
[SPEAKER_03]: Sadly, you know, this could have been in hindsight, a week two game against Virginia, and it wasn't.
2:21
[SPEAKER_03]: You, I mean, Indiana did with the supposed to do there's just no real breakdown of this game other than, you know, Charlie Becker as Greg said, continuing to establish himself as one of the five best super receivers in college football and the defense sort of getting back on track, even with some injuries.
2:49
[SPEAKER_02]: I know we didn't talk about that in the pregame that they at least don't remember us talking about it that they may not be available.
2:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm obviously not shocked.
2:59
[SPEAKER_02]: It's probably the right move.
3:02
[SPEAKER_02]: Indiana is actually 24 to four first downwise today.
3:06
[SPEAKER_02]: Fifteen rushing first down, sir Indiana two for Howard seven passing first down.
3:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Two for Howard.
3:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Indiana Rush for twenty two hundred ninety six net yards.
3:18
[SPEAKER_02]: on the ground, Howard 13 and Indiana did it on 46 to 10s, Howard only 27 for the game.
3:26
[SPEAKER_02]: Indiana passed for two or nine yards, they were nine to 16 through the air as a team.
3:31
[SPEAKER_02]: Howard was 10 of 20 for one interception as well.
3:36
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, offensive wise Indiana at over 500 yards of offense.
3:40
[SPEAKER_02]: They ran 62 plays.
3:42
[SPEAKER_02]: They scored 55 points.
3:44
[SPEAKER_02]: They average eight yards of play.
3:45
[SPEAKER_02]: Howard only average 1.2 yards of play.
3:48
[SPEAKER_02]: There's not much you can really say, like you said, this went exactly how we knew it was going to go.
3:53
[SPEAKER_02]: We thought it would be like this.
3:56
[SPEAKER_02]: So they're just going to keep improving.
3:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Western Kentucky comes to town.
4:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Next Saturday, four o'clock on peacock.
4:06
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, if this does anything about Western Kentucky, they lost by 50 on the road at Georgia today, 70 to 20.
4:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
4:13
[SPEAKER_03]: Whoever put, whoever put their preseason schedule together needs a new job.
4:18
[SPEAKER_03]: Geez.
4:19
[SPEAKER_03]: I know, but man, think about the money they're making for that program.
4:24
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, they did get that new buckies down in bowling green.
4:28
[SPEAKER_03]: So somebody's having a hell of a day with some beaver nuggets down in bowling green,
4:36
[SPEAKER_02]: Mike, have you ever been to Boeing, you're in Kentucky?
4:38
[SPEAKER_02]: I have, of course.
4:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's right on the way to Nashville.
4:43
[SPEAKER_03]: I grew up in southern Nianos, so a lot of people that I went to school with, ended up in school down there at Western.
4:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean, I've been I've been to Western many times.
4:55
[SPEAKER_03]: I've covered games there as a reporter.
4:56
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow, I mean, I can talk Indian.
4:58
[SPEAKER_03]: I can talk you all star game as a little arena.
5:01
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, I've been to Western.
5:03
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's a nice low campus to me.
5:05
[SPEAKER_02]: They're they're on the same level as a max school a ball state.
5:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe a little bit higher in a ball state.
5:12
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's definitely higher than a ball state.
5:14
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, yeah.
5:16
[SPEAKER_02]: could you could throw it in with like a good max will not Miami you take good comparison academically no but okay campus was yes okay yeah i think uh hopefully again you see the theme for Indiana keep improving and getting better so western Kentucky next week you go into the game
5:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, what's the, what's the, what, what, what was the next game you're going to do?
5:48
[SPEAKER_03]: The next one, I, I might be at the Northwestern game.
5:52
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm definitely going to really administer, which is Halloween and USC.
5:58
[SPEAKER_03]: I know I'm at those two, but I might go to the Northwestern Friday night game.
6:04
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
6:06
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that's about how much, I mean, yeah, you're right, about six
6:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I want to talk about Kyle's football as a whole right now.
6:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I don't want.
6:19
[SPEAKER_02]: This obviously isn't the Kyle's football report, but when you played Howard today.
6:24
[SPEAKER_02]: It is today.
6:24
[SPEAKER_02]: It is today.
6:26
[SPEAKER_02]: It is today.
6:27
[SPEAKER_02]: It is today.
6:27
[SPEAKER_02]: You're right.
6:28
[SPEAKER_02]: It is today.
6:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
6:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's take a quick break or a little early.
6:32
[SPEAKER_01]: So you guys can catch the college football.
6:33
[SPEAKER_03]: Can we throw back to that one stat that they brought up during the game, which is absolutely bonkers?
6:38
[SPEAKER_03]: I know it's changed since they announced it, but
6:42
[SPEAKER_03]: In the last, how many games was it where Indiana had 35 touchdown passes and 34 incompletions?
6:49
[SPEAKER_03]: That's absurd.
6:50
[SPEAKER_01]: A game.
6:53
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's just, I, it was so absurd.
6:55
[SPEAKER_01]: I texted it to my dad.
7:00
[SPEAKER_03]: When that's, I was like that, that's like, is it not, one of the announcers said it today, it's like when you're beating up on your younger sibling in a video game and they're like, this isn't fair.
7:10
[SPEAKER_03]: Those are the type of stats you see on a screen.
7:13
[SPEAKER_03]: And when that flash, that's one of the most absurd stats of seeing in college football and ever.
7:21
[SPEAKER_03]: Ever.
7:22
[SPEAKER_03]: Ever.
7:30
[SPEAKER_02]: matchups you had upset obviously Michigan beat Oklahoma at home so they're one and one on the season you went still water Oklahoma Oklahoma state beats Oregon that's the first game I want to start with here I think the Angelo Ponds on that pick six may have singally broken the Oregon's football program in the Peach Bowl back in January.
7:58
[SPEAKER_02]: they have not been the same since that particular play.
8:02
[SPEAKER_02]: They obviously were blown out in the peach bowl last year.
8:05
[SPEAKER_02]: They squeaked out of win against Boise last week and then they lose to Oklahoma State who had lost 12 straight, lost to Tulsa in week one.
8:14
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you things going on out in Eugene, man, what's going on with Dan landing?
8:19
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it's the Coke getting to his head or what?
8:23
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd never understood why people were so quick to dismiss
8:28
[SPEAKER_03]: that Oregon lost both, not one, but both of its coordinators.
8:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Yep, lab from last year's team.
8:36
[SPEAKER_03]: We've seen it firsthand.
8:37
[SPEAKER_03]: If you have a good coordinator, if you have a great coordinator, especially, which I think Oregon had maybe in both scenarios, Will Stein, who ends up at Kentucky,
8:49
[SPEAKER_03]: guy who's name.
8:50
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm great.
8:51
[SPEAKER_03]: You're a boy.
8:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, there you go.
8:53
[SPEAKER_03]: He's at Cal.
8:55
[SPEAKER_03]: You're the name interpreter for me.
8:58
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, when those guys who were both were obviously really, really good enough that they're job to get power for coaching opportunity, leave at the same time, you're replacing them both.
9:12
[SPEAKER_03]: landing can be one of the best coaches in the country but having to replace two elite coordinators is that's a really big hill to have to climb and we were just impervious to it because
9:26
[SPEAKER_03]: Dante Moore.
9:27
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god.
9:27
[SPEAKER_03]: He's coming back.
9:28
[SPEAKER_03]: He was supposed to be the second pick in the draft that's completely fine.
9:32
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, dear Hill.
9:33
[SPEAKER_03]: He's one of the fastest dudes you're ever going to see and their uniforms are awesome and Dan landing gives great interviews and takes his shirt off on game day.
9:41
[SPEAKER_03]: So we're just supposed to just be like, oh, organs never going to struggle.
9:46
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, guess what they're struggling and they ended up
9:51
[SPEAKER_03]: week one playing a really really good boysy team that could potentially if if not be favored to be the group of 16 that's going to make the college football play off this year they're going to be going with Memphis right now last time I saw it was tied in the third quarter and then they follow that up against a desperate Oklahoma state team that's
10:16
[SPEAKER_03]: By finally, probably came into that game in Bearist, and we saw it with Michigan today.
10:20
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, sometimes a team gets humbled and it Bearists in their opener.
10:25
[SPEAKER_03]: They play a little desperate in week two, and there's a huge bounce back.
10:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not, I'm stunned Oregon lost because, yeah.
10:36
[SPEAKER_03]: because it's Oklahoma State and Oklahoma State did lose the Tulsa and they're breaking an entirely new roster and I thought, well, maybe the season they aren't gonna be as good as everybody pegged them that they were going to be.
10:47
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, you brought up a good point in our text that earlier is that Oklahoma State is this year's Indiana and Indiana dominated the series against Oregon over the years.
10:56
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, going all the way back to the, going all the way back to the dinner area.
11:00
[SPEAKER_03]: So,
11:03
[SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, it's been a rough start to this year's Indiana through the first two weeks.
11:10
[SPEAKER_03]: Because week one this year's Indiana was Oklahoma State.
11:14
[SPEAKER_03]: They lost it Tulsa week two, Will Stein at Kentucky was he's this year's Signetti man.
11:22
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, yeah, and and they got they look good a half.
11:27
[SPEAKER_03]: The good for half, but man, they got humbled today by Alabama.
11:31
[SPEAKER_03]: So I knew that would happen.
11:37
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, the crowd was lit.
11:38
[SPEAKER_03]: They listened to Stein.
11:40
[SPEAKER_03]: They all got showed up, just drunk his hell, and it didn't matter.
11:46
[SPEAKER_03]: Bama just flattened them in the second half of that game.
11:50
[SPEAKER_03]: It looked like the JV is the varsity.
11:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I want to just circle back to you talk about the two coordinators, leaving for head jobs.
12:00
[SPEAKER_02]: It makes it more ultra important for Indiana to have to want to keep Brian Haines and Mike Shannon and I know they signed extensions, I know they signed deals, but that doesn't mean that if the right head job came open, I don't think they would, you know, I think you listen, I think you would probably be intrigued by it.
12:22
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's the prime example of how important it is to keep our coordinators, especially at a school like Indiana now again, we obviously probably put in a cart before the horse in that scenario there.
12:34
[SPEAKER_02]: So I don't even want to talk about it.
12:36
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, talk about one of those K-lander boards after a theater board team and look what happened.
12:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
12:42
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you ended up with Nick Sheridan and then Walt Bell.
12:47
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, Walt.
12:49
[SPEAKER_03]: And then I think Darren Hiller for like half a season.
12:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Very, very, correctly.
12:53
[SPEAKER_03]: No, they did that guy that they had.
12:55
[SPEAKER_03]: It was in like the closet that they only pulled out when they fired a raw carry.
13:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, ride carry.
13:02
[SPEAKER_02]: That's why I thought his neck hadn't taken his name.
13:04
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was that but I wasn't sure.
13:06
[SPEAKER_02]: It was the guy.
13:07
[SPEAKER_03]: He was the head coach at Temple at one point and he was always just there.
13:12
[SPEAKER_03]: And whenever they had an opening they had to fill it went like when they fired Darren Hill or Rod Gary became the old line coach we weren't quite sure what his credentials were but dang it he was the guy.
13:26
[SPEAKER_03]: And then when they fired.
13:28
[SPEAKER_03]: Walt Bell.
13:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Hey, you know what rod you're on retainer man we're going to have to pull you in here.
13:36
[SPEAKER_03]: who who is the defensive coordinator under Allen besides Cain Walmat and he's another example by the way you lost him and then look what happened yeah Cain Walmat then they had Charlton Warren he was the DB guy from from Georgia who they brought in he ended up leaving after one year I think Allen took over the defense again yeah I get right
14:03
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, it's a mess, man.
14:04
[SPEAKER_03]: So to replace two elite coordinators, it's a Ohio State would struggle with it.
14:12
[SPEAKER_03]: They're replacing their OC this year with Arthur Smith, Moustache and Thusius that he is, but they didn't have to replace Matt Petrisha.
14:24
[SPEAKER_03]: And that might be the secret sauce.
14:26
[SPEAKER_03]: You get a good coach, but if he's an absolute abomination of a human being, like Matt Petrisha is,
14:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Just in grade A, a whole that nobody's ever going to hire again, then you could probably hang on to them and Ryan days probably doing him a lot of favors just by happening on a staff.
14:45
[SPEAKER_03]: Matt Patricia, who looks like the caddy from the original happy Gilmore movie.
14:50
[SPEAKER_03]: That's how violently uncomptuous.
14:54
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow.
15:04
[SPEAKER_02]: What the hell happened in West Lafayette today, right?
15:08
[SPEAKER_02]: Do you want to explain?
15:15
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, it's, it's, it's, it's teetering past hilarious to almost sad.
15:24
[SPEAKER_02]: They always lose in a hilarious way.
15:31
[SPEAKER_02]: They always find a way to lose in the funny and sway possible.
15:37
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, you know, I want to say so many things and I'm not going to be at the loss of words.
15:50
[SPEAKER_03]: A little bit.
15:51
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm a little bit because there's so I feel like there's so much you can say
16:01
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's go back, I mean, Ryan Walters was not at the time, considered a bad hire.
16:11
[SPEAKER_03]: He really wasn't.
16:12
[SPEAKER_03]: He was an up and coming guy.
16:13
[SPEAKER_03]: He was a hot name.
16:15
[SPEAKER_03]: He was with Bill and Illinois.
16:17
[SPEAKER_03]: He was the fresh young coordinator.
16:20
[SPEAKER_03]: He was going to come in.
16:21
[SPEAKER_03]: He just ended up being a really, really, really bad coach.
16:32
[SPEAKER_03]: you can go a lot of different directions and I just, like I said on the show before, I just felt like they settled.
16:43
[SPEAKER_03]: And Barry Odom, it was kind of just like, nobody wants to eat a stofor's lasagna, but sometimes you just eat a stofor's lasagna and Barry Lambardi or Barry Odom to me is just like the stofor's lasagna of college football.
17:00
[SPEAKER_03]: it's like, yeah, it'll, it'll, it'll do, I'm not excited about it.
17:08
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's kind of how I view these two years of Purdue football.
17:12
[SPEAKER_03]: I just, his first year was, they run out of the gate, they get those first two wins, and then they play really well in that USC game, and they hang some points on Notre Dame, but it was just kind of like, yeah, the body into the
17:30
[SPEAKER_03]: It's pretty, I mean, they lose hilariously to Rutgers where Ryan Brown throws a pass, catches it, tries to run, because it gets bad at back to him, tries to run it for first down fumbles as he's a receiver.
17:46
[SPEAKER_03]: And instead of going over time, Rutgers just wins it, because the quarterback fumbled his own catch.
17:56
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... is that a mental field goal range yeah it's a them and then they they they're playing in diana and it was actually legitimately like they were playing hard and they were hidden and fronando wasn't great and proof it's a little dry together and they get it down close and
18:14
[SPEAKER_03]: It felt like man, you got a chance to really put some points up here, you know, just line up and get this first out now.
18:21
[SPEAKER_03]: He settles for a field goal, and I think it made it like four to, he turned to 14, nothing game into a 14, three game.
18:29
[SPEAKER_03]: And it was just kind of like, yeah, this is as good as it's going to get.
18:33
[SPEAKER_03]: And then they lost like 56 to three or whatever, and ended up being.
18:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
18:38
[SPEAKER_03]: And then they got a little bit of a little bit.
18:41
[SPEAKER_03]: He got those three, which was more than Walter's gotten his last game against Zignetti.
18:47
[SPEAKER_03]: But this year, like, their whole offseason in Griggs on the call was like, that way game is, that means a lot.
18:55
[SPEAKER_03]: First of all, the fact that a game against Wake Forest is like, this is a program changer, guys.
19:04
[SPEAKER_03]: We have the 11th best team in the FNACC coming to town.
19:10
[SPEAKER_03]: We've got to do this.
19:11
[SPEAKER_03]: You guys were there two years ago.
19:14
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not like this two years.
19:16
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, 11 and two or two years ago.
19:20
[SPEAKER_01]: You guys, the exact same situation you were sitting about two and a half years ago.
19:25
[SPEAKER_01]: So,
19:29
[SPEAKER_03]: What do you want us to be humble?
19:30
[SPEAKER_03]: We just went 16 and over one of the national champions who are correct.
19:36
[SPEAKER_02]: Hmm, Indiana has been in that spot before the, I mean, they had a chance in Tom Owens last year against Louisville to beat him at Lucas oil and then, you know, you get, I can't remember if
20:01
[SPEAKER_02]: No, they got stuff.
20:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Walt Bell put his big boy pants on and try to run off guard with, like, a literal, inflatable pool playing left guard at that point.
20:17
[SPEAKER_02]: But today, peru, just, they, they, they, they come out.
20:23
[SPEAKER_03]: They look like gang boosters that first drive man, like they're,
20:27
[SPEAKER_03]: They're my algorithms picking up pretty tweets is like, what a drive, man, that's a way to start it.
20:34
[SPEAKER_03]: And then Wake just runs through them like a knife through butter for 17 straight points.
20:40
[SPEAKER_03]: They're down the whole game, the quarterback for Wake gets hurt, Purdue makes this great comeback.
20:47
[SPEAKER_03]: But then they completely mismanaged the last drive of the game, they get first and was it first
20:57
[SPEAKER_03]: with like a minute left and three time outs and they had to hurry to kick a last second field goal.
21:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's that's correct.
21:02
[SPEAKER_01]: And then after hurry, but they, it was fourth down with three seconds to go.
21:07
[SPEAKER_01]: They just, not as bad as they mismanaged the first half at the end of the, the end of the first half.
21:13
[SPEAKER_01]: That's for sure.
21:14
[SPEAKER_02]: And I felt it's like, wait, you much time off the clock there at the interagulation, but the, the, the, the, the the absolute like,
21:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Just pain, you won the game, I guess.
21:31
[SPEAKER_03]: The referee runs out he spots the guy short on 4th and 15.
21:36
[SPEAKER_03]: I I don't know how a guy runs I don't know how a guy runs for like 10 yards on 4th and 15 after he could That's a problem with the defense that was called But you had the game one man the ref called the game and First of all horrible camera word by fs one.
21:57
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, what's like where's the angle
22:01
[SPEAKER_03]: But I think the call was right and I'm not saying that it's somebody who just laughs at produce misery.
22:06
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it was the right call to change it.
22:10
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it was right.
22:11
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, he got the ball over the line again.
22:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you got, you kind of step back or he got pushed back and yeah, it was the right call.
22:20
[SPEAKER_02]: But.
22:21
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, to lose that way, and then, and then didn't set up fourth and goal again.
22:26
[SPEAKER_02]: No, no, no, no, no, not fourth and goal or, I think they only had to run two plays after that.
22:31
[SPEAKER_03]: It was the QB run for the touchdown and then the QB run on the two point conversion.
22:35
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
22:36
[SPEAKER_03]: But don't forget, Purdue called a timeout when Wake was about to commit either a delay a game or a fall start on fourth and 15, produced the one that called the timeout.
22:47
[SPEAKER_03]: which would have been a fourth inch.
22:49
[SPEAKER_03]: We're spending a lot of time on Purdue, but it's funny.
22:53
[SPEAKER_03]: So we're going to keep doing it.
22:56
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not.
22:58
[SPEAKER_03]: It's hilarious.
22:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Actually, you're right.
22:59
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not funny.
23:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, they got used to LA next week.
23:07
[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully the real fans will stay up till 11 o'clock to watch it.
23:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't wait.
23:11
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait.
23:12
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't wait.
23:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Great to find out what the score that one is on Sunday morning.
23:15
[SPEAKER_03]: I can tell you that already.
23:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
23:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll represent.
23:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I hope you get the Richmond assignment on Friday night grant.
23:24
[SPEAKER_02]: I get seeing you, Jack.
23:26
[SPEAKER_02]: That game's not till.
23:27
[SPEAKER_02]: That game's not till like October 2nd.
23:30
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm not going to Richmond.
23:38
[SPEAKER_03]: And yeah, uh, produce enthusiasts.
23:41
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, we we talked to we talked off air about like silent night at Taylor.
23:47
[SPEAKER_03]: After losing that game today, I got to figure Ross A's going to be like the silent night game at Taylor the rest of the year except they're not going to get excited when produce scores it's 10th point.
23:58
[SPEAKER_03]: They're just going to be like, well, yeah, there goes barrio to him again.
24:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Cut one my bet.
24:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Settles for that field, gold, and make it 44 to 10.
24:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks, Barry.
24:08
[SPEAKER_02]: One of my buddies die hard Purdue fan at the game.
24:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Literally said he ran down to the front row to storm the field, because he thought they're about to win the game.
24:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Then obviously wake in it at winning it.
24:23
[SPEAKER_03]: November of 23.
24:25
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the last win over a P4 team.
24:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Mike, I was 19 years old the last time they went again.
24:34
[SPEAKER_02]: It gets a P14.
24:36
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm 20.
24:38
[SPEAKER_03]: I was older than you.
24:40
[SPEAKER_02]: I was on my 40s.
24:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow.
24:46
[SPEAKER_02]: I was still a teenager the last time I want a P4 game.
24:51
[SPEAKER_02]: Joe Biden was still president.
24:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
24:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he was.
24:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, guys, Texas and Ohio State are playing.
24:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you hear that?
24:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and Texas turned the ball over twice on their first two drives.
25:03
[SPEAKER_02]: They fumbled on their first drive.
25:05
[SPEAKER_02]: And then they had the most unbelievable interception that arch manning through because the ball literally like popped out of the receivers are like battered on a fifth of his chest and his arms popped up in the air.
25:21
[SPEAKER_02]: the time of this recording.
25:23
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought for a second when this game starts like, you know, just the way they're coming out, the energy here is like, man, this could be a, this could be the game of the year, man.
25:33
[SPEAKER_02]: And I, I don't know, as the right now of this record, this,
25:38
[SPEAKER_03]: Ohio State just looks like the better team right now do you think they're making and speaking of that game do you think they're making they've just resorted to making up temperatures on the field at this point yes there was number last last week at last week when Indiana's playing North Texas it was allegedly like 785 degrees on the field there's today i think holly holly row
26:09
[SPEAKER_03]: Holly Rose trying to say it was nine hundred and seventy seven degrees on the field in Austin before the game.
26:17
[SPEAKER_03]: They have to make him at it.
26:20
[SPEAKER_02]: It is not humanly possible to be able to sit through and play on a hundred and fifty two to
26:36
[SPEAKER_02]: You would look your body would start to burn.
26:38
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, uh, they have to make that out.
26:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Hollywood would be cooking bacon on the field.
26:49
[SPEAKER_03]: Hollywood would be the bacon.
26:54
[SPEAKER_03]: Poor Hollywood.
26:57
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a, this is not an anti-Holly robot guess that was in poor taste my apologies.
27:02
[SPEAKER_02]: I know, but I'm more of a Taylor McGregor guy.
27:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes, Holly has a tendency to make the report about Holly and not the actual on-field product and that that bothers me as someone who watches games.
27:15
[SPEAKER_02]: I agree.
27:16
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm actually a big fan of Jenny Taffed on Fox.
27:20
[SPEAKER_02]: I also think she's a really good sideline reporter.
27:28
[SPEAKER_00]: You get more with all this time More sports talk in bonus time Bonus time on the Central India
27:40
[SPEAKER_02]: North Texas beat UNLV 44 to six today, uh, I think you're gonna realize North Texas is pretty good.
27:47
[SPEAKER_02]: I, you know, uh, again, it's easy to say this early on, but I think they're gonna end up being a lot like, maybe old Dominion was.
27:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Old Dominion was what, like, nine and three last year in the Sunbell, 10 and two, I can't remember.
28:00
[SPEAKER_02]: They had a really good season.
28:01
[SPEAKER_02]: I could see North Texas being that way in the American conference.
28:05
[SPEAKER_02]: We knew like the pedigree of what they had not all team left and be organ today just to an Oklahoma State uniform.
28:12
[SPEAKER_02]: And so you got Neil Brown who
28:15
[SPEAKER_02]: is a competent head coach as coach the power for level, so I think, uh, I think, uh, no attack is going to be pretty good.
28:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, like I said in the IE preview, Neil Brown has done great at that level.
28:30
[SPEAKER_03]: He went to Morgan town and he didn't win at a level that West Virginia wants to win at and he wasn't ever really bad there.
28:39
[SPEAKER_03]: He just,
28:40
[SPEAKER_03]: he was never great there.
28:42
[SPEAKER_03]: They didn't compete for conference titles and they were they were a bullish team most seasons that he was there.
28:50
[SPEAKER_03]: But when he was a Troy that was a you know they were a piece P5, P6 powerhouse.
28:56
[SPEAKER_03]: So now he's back maybe coaching at a level that he's comfortable with and we know Taven, Taven's played at
29:04
[SPEAKER_03]: three power four conference schools now, Tennessee, Indiana, and UCF, and he's played well at times, and two of those three stops he didn't play a lot at Tennessee, if any.
29:16
[SPEAKER_03]: So they've got a competent quarterback, and as long as he brought in some guys, they were not picked high in their conference, but that was probably a lot of unknown.
29:27
[SPEAKER_03]: That conference doesn't look great, Memphis looks good,
29:35
[SPEAKER_03]: from their highs.
29:37
[SPEAKER_03]: So who knows what's going to happen there?
29:39
[SPEAKER_03]: So North Texas may end up being a lot better than than we give credit for.
29:44
[SPEAKER_03]: And then if they are, you have to really re-examine the way in the throttle that them in that game offensively.
29:52
[SPEAKER_02]: No doubt about it.
29:53
[SPEAKER_02]: I think you look back at that game with a different perspective.
29:58
[SPEAKER_02]: In the middle of the season.
30:01
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's fans, I think we, I don't know, it's just me, but like, obviously you were so invested in last year, last year's team was so fun and just felt like a team of destiny.
30:13
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you just felt so comfortable knowing it was Fernando Bendoza and Elijah Surat and all that.
30:20
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you spent the whole off season going back and watching that stuff and watching those games and that just being, you know, they're just there, you know, aid and fish or dandelions.
30:30
[SPEAKER_02]: I was guys at left for the NFL.
30:33
[SPEAKER_02]: And now we started the year and you're like, oh, well, they're not there anymore.
30:38
[SPEAKER_02]: If this just feels weird, it's just a weird vibe.
30:41
[SPEAKER_02]: I just don't know about this team.
30:44
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I think we're going to find out that this team is going to be like that, too.
30:48
[SPEAKER_02]: You just got to give it some time to, you know, resonate here.
30:52
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that this team is capable of being able to
30:58
[SPEAKER_02]: going another run like that.
31:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, the schedule sets him up for success in a way.
31:03
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, they're not comforts again.
31:05
[SPEAKER_02]: I've got people bitching in my face but comment section.
31:09
[SPEAKER_02]: When all I said was for Indiana is just getting 1% better and they're going to go how they're getting better when they're playing Howard.
31:14
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you mean how are they getting?
31:17
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you mean how are they not getting better playing Howard?
31:20
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't understand that.
31:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, you got guys that played in the game today that are not going to play against Ohio State, they're not going to play in big 10 games unless it's a blowout.
31:31
[SPEAKER_02]: You got guys getting reps on a college football field for the number 5 team in the country.
31:37
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you mean they're not getting better by playing Howard?
31:40
[SPEAKER_02]: If anything, you get, you're, I mean, you used this game to get better than any other game's going to get you better.
31:46
[SPEAKER_03]: So, yeah, Tyler Cherry taking SNS.
31:49
[SPEAKER_03]: What other game is Tyler Cherry going to get on the field this year?
31:53
[SPEAKER_02]: We literally see him the rest of the year.
31:55
[SPEAKER_03]: Hopefully none.
31:56
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, exactly.
31:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Not gonna win.
32:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Not gonna win.
32:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, of course we got vanilla Vic, Grant Wilson running behind Josh Hoover if anything happens.
32:07
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess they say he's the fastest guy on Indiana's team during the broadcast today.
32:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Dude, I know we talked about it last week, but Vanilla is.
32:17
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm a Charlie Becker, the Hatcherick today.
32:22
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, three touchdowns.
32:25
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, me and my living room on one, at least one or two of them, I was the closest defender to him.
32:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he is so good in the contest to catch.
32:38
[SPEAKER_03]: I know he hit on that last week, and I know we'll end up hitting on it again at some point.
32:43
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just incredible to me to be able to watch him do what he does, and you know you saw the drill they showed it on TV, I'm sure you saw it Mike is you know the tennis balls and catching the tennis balls over the shoulder your concentration talked about you know numbering the tennis balls or whatever numbering the ball that's getting through aren't saying your concentration's to yell out what numbers on the ball.
33:07
[SPEAKER_02]: That's that's a really impressive thing.
33:09
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean he is just he's so good in the one-on-one contested catch And he's fun to watch But like you said earlier, he's not hit my eyes when those after beating Howard like Malachi Tony did against Famous And Graham we got something to discuss on the IU report
33:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Because I'm hearing early reports from people on site, and you were there last week, so I want you to think about this, and maybe talk to some people who you know attend games, but I'm hearing, I'm hearing that hurts so good is not hitting as the Hoosier anthem between the 3rd and 4th quarter.
33:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, again, being there last week, I noticed that...
33:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, I don't know because because the weather has a complied and maybe the crowd isn't as good between the third and fourth quarter or do you think it's just Yeah, I think I hate to use that as an excuse Um, it it also just could be like there's a lot of young people in the stadium that don't get that I know like you guys give me shit for not knowing stuff because I'm young
34:25
[SPEAKER_02]: uh... but you know i grew up with a dad who loves music as much like maybe more than he loves sport so obviously i heard that song growing up and i don't know if it's just that i mean i don't know if it's just not hitting with the younger crowd there with the students who just don't understand it or
34:46
[SPEAKER_02]: I, I, I don't know if the weather's cooperated.
34:49
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you look at it today.
34:50
[SPEAKER_02]: There's nobody there at the end of the game.
34:53
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, between the third and fourth quarters, everybody's left.
34:56
[SPEAKER_02]: It was the same last week.
34:58
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, Truth be know, it'll probably be the same thing.
35:00
[SPEAKER_02]: It's Western Kentucky.
35:01
[SPEAKER_02]: People are going to be leaving early.
35:03
[SPEAKER_02]: I, I just,
35:07
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
35:08
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
35:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, one of the part of it is now when I hear that song, it takes you back to the celebration and the cringe like, because they didn't know the lyrics and the players definitely didn't.
35:20
[SPEAKER_02]: The players did not know the lyrics and I don't have to skip that every time I watch that big, because I get to say it's like a hand embarrassment.
35:26
[SPEAKER_03]: I've heard that from people that were in Pasadena, this is kind of where it originated.
35:32
[SPEAKER_03]: Was in Pasadena last year that it was kind of an organic thing that just happened nobody expected nobody knew it was coming And it just hit and everybody's like, oh, we finally found it.
35:44
[SPEAKER_03]: We finally found the song.
35:46
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and Quite frankly you can't just make something happen.
35:52
[SPEAKER_03]: You know it
35:55
[SPEAKER_03]: It worked in Pasadena, but I have a feeling there wasn't a lot of, like you said, 18, 1920 year olds in the crowd at Pasadena, like there is at a regular home game.
36:08
[SPEAKER_03]: So the people that could afford to go on the trip to Pasadena last year, probably grew up listening to hurt so good.
36:16
[SPEAKER_02]: Probably I mean you can make the argument just because the song blew up and it doesn't make any sense because he's gone But I don't know.
36:24
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean let's say I patheticly you replaced that with the Fernando song I think I would maybe hit a little better.
36:31
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that song and not that this really has anything to do with it Like I think that song was like in stranger things or some BS like that that people are watching I think maybe the Fernando song would hit a little better so
36:48
[SPEAKER_02]: I like the idea of the tradition of trying to start the tradition.
36:52
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's a good idea, but I don't care if it ain't the odds of the idea.
36:57
[SPEAKER_02]: I'd rather see what that means.
36:59
[SPEAKER_03]: I've always said just fine, the most ridiculous, stupid, off-the-wall song that nobody has ever used and will ever think about using.
37:13
[SPEAKER_03]: and I can name a song that I wanted to try because it's so ludicrous that I think the students who here would even get on board with it and it's so easy to sing along to and I guarantee Grant does not know this song.
37:29
[SPEAKER_03]: Greg, you might not even know this song, it's so obscure.
37:33
[SPEAKER_03]: But if they tried something just absolutely dumb as hell and went with something as
37:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Dude, I'm stumped.
37:45
[SPEAKER_03]: It's such a bad song.
37:48
[SPEAKER_03]: Dane the whole mother.
37:50
[SPEAKER_03]: It's, the song's called Mother by a band called Danzig.
37:54
[SPEAKER_03]: It is absolutely one of the 10 more songs you may ever hear in your life.
38:02
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's so stupid that I could see a bunch of college kids jumping on it and it actually sticking, but it's so old and obscure that there's no way right now anybody knows what it is.
38:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it isn't a background, that's for sure.
38:21
[SPEAKER_03]: But I remember Keith Folk when he was a closer and MLB would run out to Danzig mother in the crowd caught onto it.
38:35
[SPEAKER_03]: But it was just such a short lived like Keith Folk was only good for like three seasons.
38:41
[SPEAKER_03]: So nobody really knows this all.
38:43
[SPEAKER_03]: But if you went with Danz, something that's stupid.
38:47
[SPEAKER_03]: or caught in a joe, Jesus Christ.
38:50
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I've heard of that one.
38:54
[SPEAKER_03]: It hadn't been caught in a joe.
38:57
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, Purdue goes with what's shout.
39:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but it's what Oregon does, that's it.
39:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Oregon, yeah, but also Purdue is also, Purdue's trying to make great traditions of other,
39:10
[SPEAKER_03]: Colleges because they go shout and then they do the Dwarred waste the sandstorm, which is South Carolina's thing Don't listen to anything after hurt so good Come on baby Great you know mother.
39:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I do not I know what a Dan's it is, but I don't know It's dude
39:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Is the song bat, is it really that bad?
39:40
[SPEAKER_03]: As soon as we get done tonight, it's very late on your iTunes, Spotify, whatever.
39:47
[SPEAKER_03]: And just text me back and be like, this is the worst song I've ever heard.
39:51
[SPEAKER_02]: So we had a dude on the Creek Chubs this year, who is our catcher, and his walk-up song was this song called Snake Farm.
40:03
[SPEAKER_02]: The guy who's thing is he was Ray Wiley Hubbard.
40:05
[SPEAKER_02]: I did a whole thing, but I did a story about it on the broadcast sometime.
40:09
[SPEAKER_03]: The song is so garbage, dude.
40:12
[SPEAKER_02]: But, but every time, yes, it's a thing.
40:18
[SPEAKER_02]: That's it.
40:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I know this one.
40:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I know this one too.
40:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Well done.
40:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, of course I know this song.
40:32
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, no, that's all.
40:39
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't mean that's not going to hit you like a bunch of college kids are like, not bad.
40:47
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not a bad suggestion, Mike.
40:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It's one you can kind of jump a little too.
40:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Little dance and then it picks up like that.
40:57
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what I'm saying, yeah.
41:04
[SPEAKER_01]: it's about to pick up right now yep I know it here you go now you can do the crowd dance oh that's bad it's good bad you're right Mike you nailed that oh I love it good note to end on yeah the mist fit
