0:21
Speaker 2: back man? Fun week last week? Uh yeah, that was
0:26
Speaker 2: a that's a great week of college college football. I
0:31
Speaker 2: want to start off with UCLA and Penn State. We
0:35
Speaker 2: said on the pregame schedule, if not now, when for
0:39
Speaker 2: James Franklin, well, it clearly ain't now. And how great
0:44
Speaker 2: was that last week with First, Jerry Neuweisel just made
0:48
Speaker 2: himself a coordinator if he wants to be, depending on,
0:52
Speaker 2: you know, what happens out at UCLA and all of that. Second,
0:55
Speaker 2: how great was that for Rick new Heisl, just the
0:58
Speaker 2: whole thing. I saw him catching reef on social media
1:01
Speaker 2: about being a homer. Well, helly, he he's a homer.
1:03
Speaker 2: It's this kid. I think the guy held it together
1:06
Speaker 2: better than I would have. I just can't imagine how
1:09
Speaker 2: great that felt for him. I mean just awesome. I
1:14
Speaker 2: mean the clip of him standing there all right, let
1:17
Speaker 2: the clock run, Son, Let the clock run, had a boy,
1:19
Speaker 2: had a boy was one of the coolest things ever.
1:22
Speaker 2: I mean, he is literally watching his son do exactly
1:25
Speaker 2: what he's supposed to be doing in that situation. Had
1:28
Speaker 2: to be an awesome moment for that family. Just a
1:30
Speaker 2: really really cool deal. And if you're the guy throwing
1:33
Speaker 2: rocks at him, you're a dickhead. That's pretty much the
1:35
Speaker 2: gist of it.
1:38
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you.
1:39
Speaker 2: I mean fan, I mean he's dislikingim, but I don't
1:43
Speaker 2: I'm not a fan, certainly don't know the guy. I mean,
1:46
Speaker 2: just a great moment. That was a great moment in
1:48
Speaker 2: college sports. To me, I agree with you. And you know,
1:51
Speaker 2: new knows what he's up to.
1:52
Speaker 1: Gets he's been a player, he's been a coach, he's
1:54
Speaker 1: been a coordinator, and he's had to call pways. So
1:57
Speaker 1: he gets it. To get to watch your son do
1:58
Speaker 1: it on my TV, you know what. Let's follow that
2:01
Speaker 1: up with CBS this week loading up the crew going
2:04
Speaker 1: to the Pacific Northwest because they've got the uh, they've
2:08
Speaker 1: got the Indiana Oregon game up there. And they're taking
2:11
Speaker 1: the whole CBS crew up there. I'm digging the fact
2:15
Speaker 1: that all the major networks are buying into college football
2:18
Speaker 1: and like and and getting rounded. You know, it's not
2:20
Speaker 1: just ESPN. Fox is doing a good job, CBS is
2:24
Speaker 1: doing a good peacock. I mean, NBC is not just
2:26
Speaker 1: the Notre Dame network anymore. They're getting some big ten play.
2:29
Speaker 1: I love it. And it's a variety of commentary, different
2:34
Speaker 1: you know, production quality, but all in I mean, I
2:37
Speaker 1: just love the fact that where college football is going.
2:39
Speaker 1: As much as we complain about the portal and the
2:42
Speaker 1: nil situation, the parody in the game now is so
2:46
Speaker 1: interesting to me because I think, and I was talking
2:49
Speaker 1: to somebody about this last week. You know, we're so
2:51
Speaker 1: used to these seasons where you feel like you have
2:54
Speaker 1: to go undefeated or go one lass so that you
2:56
Speaker 1: can get a chance to win the tournament, and everybody
2:59
Speaker 1: else is just kind of hanging on with hopes being
3:01
Speaker 1: a surprise somebody get a ball win. Well, Now, the
3:03
Speaker 1: fact that you can be a nine and three team
3:06
Speaker 1: or a ten and two team and get into tournament
3:08
Speaker 1: and win it is I think it's opened up the
3:12
Speaker 1: it's opened up the game level. But I don't look
3:14
Speaker 1: as fans, we're we're quite ready for it yet because
3:17
Speaker 1: we haven't seen that and in our lifetime.
3:19
Speaker 2: Really, if you think about it, absolutely sec going to
3:23
Speaker 2: nine games next year is a big deal. It is
3:27
Speaker 2: a it's just gonna put that many more marquee games
3:31
Speaker 2: out there every week for teams, for teams to televise.
3:35
Speaker 2: You've already got a lot of leagues at nine and
3:38
Speaker 2: that is that to me is a big, a big deal.
3:42
Speaker 2: When do one of these step off into streaming and
3:46
Speaker 2: they put one game on Thursday night or a Friday night,
3:50
Speaker 2: it obviously won't be Thursday night with Amazon, but you know,
3:54
Speaker 2: put put a game out there that it is solely streaming.
3:58
Speaker 2: What is it? You know? Who who branches out and
4:01
Speaker 2: who's got the balls to do it? Because people will
4:03
Speaker 2: watch it. That is the bottom line is people will
4:07
Speaker 2: watch it. College football is a I want to say
4:11
Speaker 2: the product's great, it's the pomp and the circumstance that
4:14
Speaker 2: goes around college football that may if you've ever been
4:18
Speaker 2: to a campus and just watched just how passionate, I mean,
4:24
Speaker 2: how much people love it and how much luck they
4:26
Speaker 2: love being back and it's everywhere. It doesn't matter whether
4:29
Speaker 2: they're good bad average. That's what makes college football great.
4:33
Speaker 2: And I also think it's there's a difference for these
4:37
Speaker 2: own campuses. The biggest problem in the NFL's got in
4:39
Speaker 2: my mind, if you go to a game, you are
4:42
Speaker 2: without doubt going to have someone around you who's a
4:46
Speaker 2: complete moron, is absolutely hammered, is cussing and acting like
4:51
Speaker 2: a moron. And I don't buy cheap seats when I
4:54
Speaker 2: go to games. That's that's the bottom line. You're gonna
4:57
Speaker 2: run into it. It doesn't matter they're they've spent their
5:01
Speaker 2: whole paycheck to go get smashed. I mean, you watch
5:04
Speaker 2: it none stop. There's gonna be fights in the parking lot.
5:08
Speaker 2: That just doesn't happen at college games. You know, it
5:12
Speaker 2: just doesn't, and I mean not very often. And it's
5:16
Speaker 2: a completely different environment. You can take your kids. People
5:19
Speaker 2: been drinking all day, just the same. But there's not
5:22
Speaker 2: that level of moron going on that there is at
5:26
Speaker 2: NFL games. And I think, guess one advantage college football's
5:29
Speaker 2: really got. And look, the ability now to gamble and
5:33
Speaker 2: all of those things is such a critical deal. I
5:36
Speaker 2: have mentioned this to several people at different schools. Somebody's
5:42
Speaker 2: gonna embrace gambling. And what I mean by that is
5:46
Speaker 2: they're gonna put up like a beer haul or whatever
5:49
Speaker 2: down in the corner. It's a dead end of the
5:51
Speaker 2: stadium or whatever. Scratch it. Don't even try to put
5:54
Speaker 2: students down there, or players down there, or or parents
5:58
Speaker 2: you know, or anything down there visiting fans. Nothing. Stick
6:02
Speaker 2: you in a beer garden down there. Cover it and
6:04
Speaker 2: put about twenty five TVs. Guess what's gonna happen. You're
6:08
Speaker 2: gonna sell it hunt of beer because people want to
6:11
Speaker 2: know what's going on with gambling. That's the deal. I agree.
6:13
Speaker 2: It's too easy to bet now days.
6:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, I totally agree. A couple other things. We called
6:19
Speaker 1: it a couple of games we missed bad. We called
6:21
Speaker 1: it last week Cincinnati, Iowa States banged up. That was
6:24
Speaker 1: a team I really liked going into the season with
6:26
Speaker 1: a chance to win the Big Twelve. They've got some
6:28
Speaker 1: big time injuries on the defense, and Cincinnati was able
6:31
Speaker 1: to step up and exploit it. If you're a Cincinnati fan,
6:33
Speaker 1: I'm sorry because I think Scott Sanderfield's coming back for
6:36
Speaker 1: another year. Not a big fan of his. Dan mull
6:39
Speaker 1: or not Dan mullan. But Billy Napier Sunbelt lay out
6:44
Speaker 1: like we thought. He got his wide receiver back, so
6:48
Speaker 1: he had DJ Lagway hat him a toy. They committed
6:51
Speaker 1: to running the ball. They the offense look better than
6:55
Speaker 1: it has all season. Defensively, that's still one of the
6:58
Speaker 1: top defensive units in the country. And now what you're
7:01
Speaker 1: going to find out is this week when they could
7:03
Speaker 1: travel to Texas A and M is is this was
7:05
Speaker 1: that just a once and on a year thing, or
7:08
Speaker 1: is that the new normal for We're going with Florida
7:10
Speaker 1: because Florida is not the garbage team A lot of
7:12
Speaker 1: people think they are with that record. I mean, they've
7:14
Speaker 1: had some close losses and they've played some good teams,
7:17
Speaker 1: and so I think this weekend, I don't have a
7:20
Speaker 1: play on the Florida A and M game. We can
7:22
Speaker 1: talk about it, but I'm very interested to watch it
7:26
Speaker 1: go down. Of course, then you've got Oklahoma and Texas.
7:29
Speaker 1: I love the fact that I don't know if you've
7:30
Speaker 1: seen this or not, but you know, but Teer had
7:33
Speaker 1: hand surgery and so they originally called, you know, he
7:36
Speaker 1: wouldn't play. Bena bules Is asked, you know, being asking
7:39
Speaker 1: He's like, he hasn't even practiced good on Good yet.
7:41
Speaker 1: And then you've got some dude that bumped into him
7:43
Speaker 1: at Chapolti and asked him if he was going to
7:46
Speaker 1: play this weekend. He told him, yeah, I'm ready. I'm
7:48
Speaker 1: ready to go. And then you've got a guy that's
7:50
Speaker 1: recording for She. Have you seen this, the guy that's
7:52
Speaker 1: reported as soon as carstool And he's in the bushes
7:54
Speaker 1: outside the state and they're not practicing outdoors. He's like, well,
7:58
Speaker 1: it's eighty five and little cloudy here today, it could
7:59
Speaker 1: be rain, so they're practicing inside. Because I think Vinables
8:04
Speaker 1: remembers back in this exact same spot when they had
8:07
Speaker 1: put a Caleb Williams package in because if you remember,
8:10
Speaker 1: this was the game that Caleb Williams took over his
8:13
Speaker 1: quarterback at Oklahoma and then went on his run and
8:16
Speaker 1: ended up transferring on into USC And So I don't
8:20
Speaker 1: know if Fitnables is playing a little cat and mouse game.
8:22
Speaker 1: If he is, I think it's hysterical. But I don't
8:26
Speaker 1: see how you can play material if your hand's hurt.
8:28
Speaker 1: I just I don't. I mean, we talked about this
8:30
Speaker 1: with Cam rising to the point of nausea. People thinking
8:33
Speaker 1: he was gonna play. There's no way that kid's gonna play.
8:35
Speaker 2: Mark. This is one game.
8:38
Speaker 1: They don't even need to win it.
8:40
Speaker 2: They don't need to win it. You need to get John,
8:42
Speaker 2: but teerback healthy is what you need to do. Since
8:45
Speaker 2: you can beat Ole Miss at home, you don't They
8:48
Speaker 2: still can win this game Saturday without Matier because I
8:51
Speaker 2: don't know that Texas is going to be able to score.
8:54
Speaker 2: So I mean we're going to find out. This is
8:56
Speaker 2: a This is a great red zone defense, really really
9:00
Speaker 2: good red zone defense. I think that's gonna a stat
9:03
Speaker 2: to watch. I did see this, heard this on Serious
9:07
Speaker 2: XM this morning. Twenty four of the last twenty five
9:11
Speaker 2: winners of this game have won the rushing battle. Whoever
9:15
Speaker 2: rushes for more yards has won twenty four out of
9:19
Speaker 2: twenty five of these games. That's gonna be a fascinating stat.
9:22
Speaker 2: Both the quarterbacks are athletic, so it's gonna be interesting
9:25
Speaker 2: to see who gets the most out of that. And
9:27
Speaker 2: it frees up the run game. Because I do think
9:30
Speaker 2: this is gonna be a low scoring game. I think
9:32
Speaker 2: this is gonna be really tightly played. I look fascinating,
9:36
Speaker 2: but you don't need to play with Tier. There is
9:40
Speaker 2: very little chance that I rolled him out there because
9:43
Speaker 2: you're risking you're a playoff team, you're a potential playoff team.
9:48
Speaker 2: You can lose this game. Hell, you lose another game
9:51
Speaker 2: and it doesn't matter.
9:52
Speaker 1: And again it's that mindset.
9:54
Speaker 2: You gotta remember mindset.
9:55
Speaker 1: We're so used to having to go undefeated to get
9:57
Speaker 1: in the tournament that now you've got to start at
10:00
Speaker 1: the season.
10:01
Speaker 2: You know, it's got to start managing your roster.
10:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's becoming the NFL for those of you that
10:07
Speaker 1: play it, and I'm sure there's a lot to is
10:09
Speaker 1: a week to week league. I mean, it changes every
10:12
Speaker 1: single week in what's going on, and I think with
10:14
Speaker 1: college football we're trending more in that direction. We really are,
10:18
Speaker 1: And you've got to start looking long term at your
10:20
Speaker 1: roster to say, Okay, there's no reason to go. As
10:22
Speaker 1: much as the alumni want you to beat Texas because
10:25
Speaker 1: they hate Texas, you can't risk this kid when he
10:28
Speaker 1: can be back fully healthy in two weeks and you
10:31
Speaker 1: guys can make still and make a run it winning
10:32
Speaker 1: the SEC championship, make a run it getting into the tournament,
10:36
Speaker 1: play for the Natty that's.
10:36
Speaker 2: My two cents.
10:37
Speaker 1: If he's healthy, hell yeah, let him play. But I
10:40
Speaker 1: just can't see him being healthy this week.
10:41
Speaker 2: I do want to talk about one more thing about
10:43
Speaker 2: last week. Yeah, can we plase talk about Cal just
10:47
Speaker 2: going complete disappearing style after being up fourteen or seventeen,
10:52
Speaker 2: nothing whatever it was, and then didn't score again, like
10:56
Speaker 2: the rest of the game, just totally disappeared. Lost me
11:00
Speaker 2: my Danny Sherid an underdog play. I mean, I'm Parlay
11:03
Speaker 2: really pissed off at Justin Wilcox, that guy. They went
11:08
Speaker 2: totally asleep, probably didn't give enough love quarterback being a
11:12
Speaker 2: West Coast guy and him coming home and playing. But man,
11:16
Speaker 2: Cal just I mean folded like a cheap suit. I
11:19
Speaker 2: mean that was that was ugly but anyway, almost had it.
11:23
Speaker 2: But that's the story of Farlay's baby. You get that
11:26
Speaker 2: late night last game, Oh doesn't come through. Gotta love it. Though,
11:30
Speaker 2: great weekend though, last weekend was a great weekend for sports.
11:35
Speaker 2: I think I think Washington had a miracle comeback.
11:42
Speaker 1: It should have lost.
11:43
Speaker 2: It should have lost that, should have lost that ball game.
11:45
Speaker 2: And then you got Maryland coming across this week, and boy,
11:49
Speaker 2: this looks like This looks like it could be melt
11:52
Speaker 2: down city for for Maryland. So again, week to week,
11:56
Speaker 2: it's a week two week league that you got to
11:58
Speaker 2: take awa look at. So it is very interesting. I'll
12:02
Speaker 2: say one other thing about Sunbelt Billy. If you couldn't
12:06
Speaker 2: see that coming. I wasn't positive they were gonna win.
12:10
Speaker 2: Of course nobody is. But at the end of the day,
12:13
Speaker 2: you knew they were gonna throw their best pitch. I
12:15
Speaker 2: mean it was. This is not a team that's lost.
12:19
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a little teaser. You got another
12:21
Speaker 2: one of those coming this week. You got another one
12:23
Speaker 2: coming this week, and we're gonna talk about it.
12:26
Speaker 1: Let's jump right in, baby, Thursday night. You got a
12:29
Speaker 1: whole slew of games that are coming on. Louisiana Tech
12:31
Speaker 1: knnessas State LNS at six over hundreds forty five and
12:34
Speaker 1: a half. Probably a little bit underrated game if you
12:37
Speaker 1: just love watching college football. Louisiana Tech's five and zero
12:40
Speaker 1: against the number of this season. Much improved team. I
12:43
Speaker 1: think this was a team coming into the season that
12:44
Speaker 1: they thought they had a lame deck coach in Senny Comby.
12:47
Speaker 1: But pay attention to Louisiana Tech. I haven't done a
12:50
Speaker 1: lot of digging here, but they get this win, man,
12:52
Speaker 1: they'll be five and one straight up, six and oh
12:54
Speaker 1: against the number much improved squad. Interesting game right in
12:58
Speaker 1: that same space, Southern Land three against Georgia's Southern I
13:03
Speaker 1: kind of leaned the Southern missing this spot. I think
13:05
Speaker 1: they may actually just be able to come out and
13:06
Speaker 1: just bully these guys and get this cover. Haven't played
13:10
Speaker 1: it yet, but I like that from a little sun
13:12
Speaker 1: Belt perspective. And then if you want to watch some
13:15
Speaker 1: really bad football, let me suggest getting you some popcorn
13:19
Speaker 1: at the Jacksonville State Sam game, because that game is
13:22
Speaker 1: gonna be fucking terrible. Bill Longo and Sam are awful,
13:27
Speaker 1: I mean awful awful. So let's ignore that you got
13:31
Speaker 1: any love for East Carolina. Two Lanes gotta East Carolina's
13:34
Speaker 1: plus six and a half over under fifty three and
13:36
Speaker 1: a half. Both these teams are coming in off of
13:38
Speaker 1: by Both these teams are playing probably a little bit
13:41
Speaker 1: better than I anticipated coming the season. East Carolina's coming
13:45
Speaker 1: off of a game where they beat Army a couple
13:46
Speaker 1: of weeks ago after kind of shutting it down, and
13:48
Speaker 1: two Lane obviously is coming off of that loss that
13:50
Speaker 1: we saw him with the bounce back after the lost
13:53
Speaker 1: to Mississipi Old miss. I don't know if I want
13:55
Speaker 1: to play it, but I live East Carolina the pirates here.
13:57
Speaker 1: If I get a flat seven, I might get involved.
14:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of in the same way I started
14:02
Speaker 2: out thinking, Oh, I like I like too lane here.
14:05
Speaker 2: Took a look at this number. The more I like,
14:07
Speaker 2: the more I looked at it, the more I like
14:08
Speaker 2: East Carolina. So I think of points is probably the
14:11
Speaker 2: right way to play here. I agree with you. If
14:12
Speaker 2: it creeps up any that that might be the right
14:14
Speaker 2: time to get in.
14:17
Speaker 1: Who knows. If this thing keeps going the way now
14:19
Speaker 1: here is the sneaky game of the week. If you're
14:21
Speaker 1: not doing something Friday night, South Florida will be traveling.
14:24
Speaker 2: It's gonna be one of the best games of the
14:26
Speaker 2: week that nobody wants wanted to have.
14:28
Speaker 1: Yeah, getting one and a half. Uh, North Texas five
14:31
Speaker 1: and oh four and one against the number. South Florida
14:34
Speaker 1: is four and one straight up, four and one against
14:36
Speaker 1: the number. This is gonna be a fantastic game. I
14:39
Speaker 1: would lean with North Texas getting the cover here. I
14:41
Speaker 1: think they're gonna get a pretty good crowd up here.
14:43
Speaker 1: But every I think the public will be heavy, heavy
14:46
Speaker 1: on South Florida because everybody's gonna remember those first couple
14:49
Speaker 1: of games and the WINNSD they've got here. And this
14:51
Speaker 1: is a really good North Texas team. But what's really
14:53
Speaker 1: good about this North Texas team. We played them a
14:55
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, wins Washington State. Their defense is
14:58
Speaker 1: short up, and I think they'll be able to defend
15:01
Speaker 1: the past pretty well in this game and make South
15:04
Speaker 1: Florida beat them on the grounds. I would lead North
15:06
Speaker 1: Texas in this one.
15:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think this's gonna be it. I think it's
15:10
Speaker 2: gonna be a great game. Uh, North, Look, this is
15:13
Speaker 2: quietly two teams have got a chance to make the playoff.
15:17
Speaker 2: You know, you got Memphis out there that everybody's looking
15:19
Speaker 2: at their eye. We've talked about un l V, We've
15:21
Speaker 2: talked about these are two other teams. South Florida wins
15:24
Speaker 2: this game, and they keep winning, and with a win
15:28
Speaker 2: over Florida and and uh and a loss to Miami
15:32
Speaker 2: that hey, buddy, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta really
15:35
Speaker 2: take a look at them too. So I think it's
15:37
Speaker 2: gonna be I think It's gonna be fascinating to watch
15:39
Speaker 2: these guys because right now South Florida's rank. So this
15:42
Speaker 2: is the of the of the group of five. I
15:45
Speaker 2: would tell you the four teams that are out front
15:47
Speaker 2: right now, two of them are playing Friday night, and
15:50
Speaker 2: nobody's gonna be paying attention to it. And I think
15:53
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a great ball game.
15:55
Speaker 1: Speaking of Friday night, we've got another one. And this
15:58
Speaker 1: is an interesting spot right here. You've got Rutgers's traveling
16:03
Speaker 1: across the country to play Washington. Short. It's short travel,
16:06
Speaker 1: it's on a week Friday night, it's late Friday night game.
16:09
Speaker 1: Rutgers is coming off of a bye. Rutgers has also
16:12
Speaker 1: lost the two of their last games. You know, we
16:16
Speaker 1: came out strong. I'm not high Rutgers this year. Eighthan
16:18
Speaker 1: Calla at manis the quarterback, hadn't. I mean, they're putting
16:21
Speaker 1: up some points, but their defense isn't nearly what it
16:24
Speaker 1: was I thought it was gonna be. And you got
16:26
Speaker 1: Washington that pulled one completely out of their ass last
16:29
Speaker 1: week in Maryland. Has to fly all the way home
16:32
Speaker 1: and then turn around and play this game Friday night.
16:34
Speaker 1: It's gonna be rocking up there in Seattle. I like
16:38
Speaker 1: Washington at nine. It's all the way up to ten
16:40
Speaker 1: and a half. I'm gonna go ahead and take it
16:41
Speaker 1: at ten and a half.
16:42
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like Washington here too. I liked it, as
16:45
Speaker 2: you said better, but I think it's going the right direction.
16:48
Speaker 2: It's more of a it's more of a call against Rutgers.
16:51
Speaker 2: I think that's gonna be a tough environment. I don't
16:54
Speaker 2: think this is a great football team with high end ability.
16:57
Speaker 2: I think Washington gets right here after getting beat at
17:01
Speaker 2: home a couple of weeks ago with Ohio State and
17:03
Speaker 2: then going on the road and squeaking one out in
17:05
Speaker 2: a tough spot. I think they get home, they get right,
17:08
Speaker 2: and they put it on Rutgers.
17:11
Speaker 1: Two games I'll have a play on, but I think
17:13
Speaker 1: are kind of interesting because they next week, James Madison
17:16
Speaker 1: and Old Dominion play each other. These are in state rivals.
17:19
Speaker 1: This is also probably going to see that who takes
17:22
Speaker 1: the outright lead in the Sun Belt, which both of
17:24
Speaker 1: these teams, if they could win it, with their record
17:26
Speaker 1: trending that way, could have a chance to get the
17:28
Speaker 1: College Football Playoff. Both are laying big numbers this week,
17:31
Speaker 1: so you could have a little bit of a look
17:32
Speaker 1: ahead spot. So if you're a Sun Belt fan, man,
17:35
Speaker 1: you may want to dig into those a little bit closer.
17:38
Speaker 1: Penn State Northwestern is James Franklin Land twenty one and
17:43
Speaker 1: a half, and do you he has to bitch slap
17:45
Speaker 1: these guys. But I don't know if I can put
17:47
Speaker 1: any faith in Big Dan James Man.
17:49
Speaker 2: I don't know that I can put any faith in
17:52
Speaker 2: them either. Holy smokes, how do you lose that game
17:54
Speaker 2: the way they lost it to just I mean, holy cow. No,
18:00
Speaker 2: I can't put any I can't put any put any
18:03
Speaker 2: faith in these guys. But he's got to win by
18:05
Speaker 2: twenty four points. He's got to start gas can in
18:08
Speaker 2: some teams now to get people speak. I know, I'm
18:14
Speaker 2: aware he's got to start gas can. He goes, when's
18:17
Speaker 2: this came by fourteen? And dude, it's just going to
18:21
Speaker 2: be more and more pylon. They were in fifty million
18:24
Speaker 2: sounds like a lot. Then State's got a lot of
18:26
Speaker 2: money too. I don't know that fifty million. I don't
18:29
Speaker 2: know that fifty millions enough that maybe ushered out the door, because,
18:33
Speaker 2: as I said preseason, if not now when it's clearly
18:37
Speaker 2: not now, And when is you got to start asking
18:43
Speaker 2: the question, can he get it done? Get it up,
18:45
Speaker 2: get them over the hump. They feel like they are
18:48
Speaker 2: significantly down the ladder in the in where things are trending,
18:54
Speaker 2: in the UH, in the in the big ten. So
18:58
Speaker 2: I don't know if I can back jam.
19:01
Speaker 1: I tell you what, man, If I'm James Franklin, here's
19:03
Speaker 1: my game plan. I get fired this season, I take
19:05
Speaker 1: my fifty million, I go get a TV contract for
19:08
Speaker 1: a couple of years where I look smart because I
19:11
Speaker 1: know a shit ton about football and it's easy to
19:13
Speaker 1: talk when you at that level and you're trying the
19:16
Speaker 1: people you're like yeah, and the people you're trying to
19:20
Speaker 1: impress are ads and border regents who don't know a
19:23
Speaker 1: lot about football, and they're gonna look and see this
19:26
Speaker 1: guy and think, oh man, this is this is who
19:28
Speaker 1: needs to lead us. I don't know where he'll. Let
19:30
Speaker 1: look look at Dan mullet. Mullen got fired at Florida coach.
19:34
Speaker 1: He was good on TV. Now Here he goes at UNLD,
19:36
Speaker 1: you know, and he'll probably get a bigger job later
19:38
Speaker 1: if he wants one. So just putting it out there,
19:41
Speaker 1: but I put fifty in my pocket, go to TV
19:44
Speaker 1: no doubt love. Let's go up to Chestnut Hill right
19:48
Speaker 1: there in Boston Beantown. Clemson comes up here laying fourteen.
19:52
Speaker 1: Clemson got right last week against North Carolina North Carolina.
19:56
Speaker 1: This week, I'd have a group press conference with them
19:58
Speaker 1: and Bill Belichick Loveno there. I still committed to football.
20:01
Speaker 1: Clemson's land fourteen over one hundred or fifty four and
20:04
Speaker 1: a half. This is completely a play against Boston College.
20:07
Speaker 1: Boston College is one of the worst Power four teams
20:09
Speaker 1: in the country. To me, yeah, they're scoring thirty one,
20:12
Speaker 1: but they're giving up thirty one. I got no faith
20:14
Speaker 1: that they're going to be able to stay in this game.
20:16
Speaker 1: I think Clemson absolutely smokes this team. I think Dabo
20:20
Speaker 1: got that week off and he was like, look, guys,
20:22
Speaker 1: we're still good. We still have a shot at this
20:25
Speaker 1: We can technically still get in the tournament. We might
20:27
Speaker 1: even have a backdoor chance to win the ACC but
20:30
Speaker 1: we can't screw around anymore. And I kind of think
20:33
Speaker 1: Clemson is going to start getting on a roll here
20:35
Speaker 1: and maybe it's going to be the Clemson we thought
20:37
Speaker 1: that we were going to get. But I don't know
20:39
Speaker 1: but this Boston College team cannot keep up with them,
20:42
Speaker 1: and so I am laying it with Clemson at minus
20:45
Speaker 1: fourteen to go on the road at Boston College and
20:48
Speaker 1: get this as an easy cover. I don't think Boston
20:51
Speaker 1: College is going to be anywhere near being able to
20:54
Speaker 1: keep up with Clemson on Saturday evening.
20:56
Speaker 2: No, I agree with you. It does feel like he
20:58
Speaker 2: did get get a Hey, look, we still got everything
21:00
Speaker 2: we set out to play for. I think that a
21:02
Speaker 2: lot of that is true for Clemson. But man, at
21:05
Speaker 2: the end of the day, they just finally looked like
21:09
Speaker 2: the team they're capable of being.
21:11
Speaker 1: Uh.
21:12
Speaker 2: I think some of the preseason hype may have gotten
21:14
Speaker 2: to them. I think they started reading about how good
21:16
Speaker 2: they thought they were, and they decided they just weren't
21:19
Speaker 2: gonna go go do the work. The teams were just
21:21
Speaker 2: gonna lose because they were Clemson and they were back.
21:24
Speaker 2: They'd made the playoffs, you know, and that isn't how
21:27
Speaker 2: it works. Everybody wants a shot, and uh, I think
21:30
Speaker 2: you're right. The off week helped. This is more for
21:33
Speaker 2: me a pick against Boston College. They feels like a
21:36
Speaker 2: little bit of wheels coming off up there. Castalanos is
21:39
Speaker 2: a guy who kept them in a lot of games
21:41
Speaker 2: and over the years, and it just feels like they
21:44
Speaker 2: are struggling a little bit. You know, Bill O'Brien made
21:49
Speaker 2: his name in college football, taken over after the disaster
21:52
Speaker 2: at Penn State, and uh when Paterno left, and this
21:57
Speaker 2: is you know, he's got it. He's got to he's
21:59
Speaker 2: got to fix it. We're gonna find out what kind
22:01
Speaker 2: of college football coach he is in this game. He's
22:04
Speaker 2: certainly a great X and O guy, but is he
22:06
Speaker 2: a great college football coach? Got it?
22:09
Speaker 1: We got a time zone games our second one we've
22:11
Speaker 1: talked about UCLA after their one win travels to Michigan
22:15
Speaker 1: State late in eight and a half. So Michigan State's
22:19
Speaker 1: getting home over unders fifty five and a half. You
22:21
Speaker 1: think you CLA's got enough mustard to do this two
22:24
Speaker 1: weeks in a row.
22:25
Speaker 2: No, I think that's great. But I think they also showed.
22:29
Speaker 2: They also showed what they were going to change on
22:30
Speaker 2: the offense. They are they were doing some things differently,
22:33
Speaker 2: switched it up new Heizel made great changes. I mean,
22:36
Speaker 2: kudos to them and that coaching staff and you know,
22:39
Speaker 2: the interim head coach, former head coach at Fresno State.
22:42
Speaker 2: You know, the story is great about new Heiseel, but
22:45
Speaker 2: but the two of them did a really, really nice
22:47
Speaker 2: job changing those things over. And it's very clear they
22:50
Speaker 2: simplified some things and just made it. Let's take advantage
22:53
Speaker 2: of the skill sets we have and let's try to
22:55
Speaker 2: put them in a position to be successful, which A
22:58
Speaker 2: is the mark of a great code and B just
23:01
Speaker 2: means you don't have your head in your ass because
23:03
Speaker 2: you're getting your best ball players in good spots. I
23:05
Speaker 2: also think Michigan State's got a better idea of what's
23:08
Speaker 2: going to be done. I think Penn State got caught
23:10
Speaker 2: off guard with a lot of stuff. They prepared for
23:12
Speaker 2: one thing and got hit with something else. I don't
23:15
Speaker 2: think Michigan State's in that factor travel factor. At the
23:18
Speaker 2: end of the day, UCLA is still not a very
23:19
Speaker 2: good football team. What they have on the field's not
23:23
Speaker 2: very good. Jonathan Smith's doing what Jonathan Smith does, just
23:27
Speaker 2: slowly making Michigan State a better and better football team.
23:29
Speaker 2: We're gonna look up and they're gonna be on the
23:31
Speaker 2: verge of the playoffs in a couple of years. That's
23:33
Speaker 2: really the way I think Michigan State is trending. I
23:36
Speaker 2: think they take another good step in the right direction.
23:39
Speaker 2: This number would have been twelve or thirteen if it
23:44
Speaker 2: wasn't for last week. Yep, that's exactly right.
23:47
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think you pick up on
23:49
Speaker 1: the flat spot and go from there. Scottie, let's go down.
23:52
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the let's talk about it. Texas Tech
23:55
Speaker 1: Red Raiders this team all summer long. That's all anybody
23:59
Speaker 1: to talk. People talking about Cody Campbell like he grew
24:02
Speaker 1: up with them, and everybody's some people bitching, oh, they're
24:05
Speaker 1: spending the money. Well, you know what, It's not just
24:08
Speaker 1: if they spent the money, folks, but they obviously evaluated
24:11
Speaker 1: the talent correctly. The defensive front for Texas Tech, why
24:14
Speaker 1: people haven't figured this out yet, is an all American
24:17
Speaker 1: defensive front. You got five to six guys on that
24:20
Speaker 1: defensive front that are going to get a chance to
24:21
Speaker 1: play in the NFL. It's an SEC caliber defensive front.
24:25
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, they're not even blitzing. It's just pure
24:29
Speaker 1: down linemen getting pressure. And every single week you're starting
24:33
Speaker 1: to see it. Last week they knocked Connor Wegman out
24:36
Speaker 1: of the game.
24:36
Speaker 2: Last week.
24:37
Speaker 1: Another thing that they did, they gave up their first
24:39
Speaker 1: touchdown with the first team defense. All season, this team's
24:43
Speaker 1: only giving up eleven points a game and they're scoring
24:47
Speaker 1: forty eight. Last week they dialed it back a little bit.
24:49
Speaker 1: But this team's a wagon baby. And not only that.
24:52
Speaker 1: I don't think they're reading the press Cliffings. I think
24:53
Speaker 1: they're still playing with a chip on their shoulder. I
24:56
Speaker 1: think the fact that A and M's good inside of Texas,
24:59
Speaker 1: they're getting a lot more nordoriety. Hell, Texas with what
25:02
Speaker 1: Archer is doing, is getting a lot more nordoniety. No
25:04
Speaker 1: one's paying much attention to this team here. Still Kansas
25:08
Speaker 1: comes in here four and two. When we've seen Kansas
25:11
Speaker 1: get matched up, they haven't played well. This composed me
25:13
Speaker 1: back to that Missouri game where they weren't. I think
25:16
Speaker 1: Texas Tech. They go to Lubbock, it's homecoming, it's a
25:19
Speaker 1: night game at the Jones. It's under fourteen.
25:22
Speaker 2: And a half.
25:23
Speaker 1: Give me the Red Raiders to cover a one more
25:25
Speaker 1: time and give the five and one on the spread
25:27
Speaker 1: six to zero straight up on the season.
25:30
Speaker 2: This is blowout city. I think it's blowout city. I
25:33
Speaker 2: think that this is a one man show for Kansas.
25:38
Speaker 2: I watched every second of that Missouri game. I think
25:41
Speaker 2: this defense is significantly better than Missouri's. Not that Missouri's
25:45
Speaker 2: got a bad defense or anything like that, but I
25:47
Speaker 2: think this is a good defense. I think they're able
25:50
Speaker 2: to contain the quarterback, and I think this offense is
25:54
Speaker 2: going to put it on a Texas defense. I mean,
25:56
Speaker 2: a Kansas defense has been giving up some points, so
25:59
Speaker 2: give me the red. I think they are going to
26:02
Speaker 2: put wood to Kansas on Saturday night. And look they've
26:06
Speaker 2: been doing it every week. Look at what they've done
26:08
Speaker 2: against the against the line.
26:09
Speaker 1: So get on board, folks. I'm telling you they could
26:13
Speaker 1: be a wagon for us. Here. Interesting game eleven am
26:16
Speaker 1: Central Time. Alabama travels up to Missouri. Alabama coming after
26:20
Speaker 1: two hard games in a row against Georgia and then
26:22
Speaker 1: turned around to play bandy. I got that win. Starting
26:26
Speaker 1: to look like the Alabama that we thought they might
26:28
Speaker 1: be when we said they'd win the SEC. Starting to
26:31
Speaker 1: be like some of the players Scott talked about in
26:33
Speaker 1: the early season. But let's not sleep on Miszoo. This
26:36
Speaker 1: was my sleeper pick to make it to the Big Ten,
26:38
Speaker 1: to the SEC championship game, and they'll still have a
26:40
Speaker 1: shot even if they lose this game. But the lineers
26:43
Speaker 1: three traveling up to Columbia, Missouri's five and oh straight
26:46
Speaker 1: up three and two against the number Scotty talking about this.
26:48
Speaker 2: SEC matchup, this is a game that I have had circled.
26:52
Speaker 2: I'm not backing off of it. I love the Tigers here.
26:57
Speaker 2: Three and a half is a short number, got a
27:00
Speaker 2: chance to win this game. Straight up. I think this
27:02
Speaker 2: is gonna be a slugfest that Alabama defense can be had.
27:07
Speaker 2: I think those athletic wide receivers and drink Wits getting
27:10
Speaker 2: those guys in space is going to be a big,
27:14
Speaker 2: big deal on Saturday. That defense is mad for Alabama.
27:20
Speaker 2: I don't care how talented it is, it's not executing
27:23
Speaker 2: at a high level, and that's what matters. Drink Whitz
27:25
Speaker 2: has always done a good job of finding opportunities to
27:29
Speaker 2: exploit guys. It's not just one or two guys. They
27:32
Speaker 2: got a lot of guys on at the skill positions.
27:35
Speaker 2: And look, they got the leading receiver in the SEC
27:38
Speaker 2: right now, so there's a This is a really, really
27:41
Speaker 2: good opportunity. But the reason I love this game, early
27:44
Speaker 2: in the preseason. You got Mazoo coming off and off week,
27:47
Speaker 2: and you got Bama coming off of two huge games.
27:51
Speaker 2: You got them coming off of Georgia on the road
27:53
Speaker 2: and then Vandy last week was a big game. And
27:55
Speaker 2: if they lost, because that Vandy games what kept Bama
27:58
Speaker 2: out of the playoffs. And you knew Bama was going
28:01
Speaker 2: to play well, and that was a slug fest. That
28:03
Speaker 2: game is a hell of a lot closer than the score,
28:05
Speaker 2: a whole lot closer. Pavea turns it over twice in
28:08
Speaker 2: the red zone, he sticks us in for touchdowns, and
28:11
Speaker 2: it's a ballgame. And candidly, they probably win if they
28:16
Speaker 2: go up fourteen to nothing. I really believe that was
28:19
Speaker 2: probably what was getting ready to happen. So let's not overplay.
28:24
Speaker 2: I love Simpson, I love Sabama. Defense is not what
28:27
Speaker 2: you've seen for the last two decades from Alabama. It
28:30
Speaker 2: is different. I'm going to be stunned if wo Mack
28:33
Speaker 2: is back as the defensive coordinator next year. Be shocked
28:37
Speaker 2: if he's back. Give me the Tigers and the points, baby,
28:40
Speaker 2: I think they're a live dog. I think they may
28:42
Speaker 2: win this game. Straight up. No, I agree with you.
28:45
Speaker 1: You know the other thing you know who Alabama's got
28:47
Speaker 1: on deck next week, don't you.
28:50
Speaker 2: I did not look who they've gotten Tennessee. I know
28:52
Speaker 2: it's a big game.
28:53
Speaker 1: See next week. I mean you've got with the one
28:55
Speaker 1: of their longest rival games coming in a sandwich spot.
28:58
Speaker 1: Missouri's one of those funny teams the SEC that I
29:00
Speaker 1: don't think the old school SEC teams get up for.
29:04
Speaker 1: And they've exploited on that for a long time on
29:06
Speaker 1: the SEC East, like three or four times, and it's
29:09
Speaker 1: kind of a unique spot. They recruit differently than everybody
29:12
Speaker 1: else up there. But Drink's done a good job, man,
29:14
Speaker 1: I like you.
29:15
Speaker 2: Let's go Bazoo.
29:16
Speaker 1: Let's get the upset against Bama and make things even
29:19
Speaker 1: more interesting as we keep things rolling. Scotty, Let's go
29:23
Speaker 1: way up to the northwest, not the way up to
29:26
Speaker 1: the mountains of Utah. Little Lund. Here's five and a half.
29:29
Speaker 1: Arizona State will be just traveling straight up to come
29:31
Speaker 1: up and play this team over under here is forty
29:34
Speaker 1: eight and a half. Both these teams are four and one.
29:36
Speaker 1: Both of these teams were preseason picked to probably play
29:39
Speaker 1: for the Big twelve championship. They're both the lining to
29:41
Speaker 1: where that is both come away with one lost. Utah obvious,
29:44
Speaker 1: who's that loss that they took at home in Texas Tech.
29:46
Speaker 1: Arizona State was the loss that they took right there
29:49
Speaker 1: in Start Vegas. Baby, But they haven't lost the conference
29:52
Speaker 1: game yet. How has this been a roll?
29:55
Speaker 2: Low scoring baby? Becaus Arizona State defenses significantly better people
30:00
Speaker 2: better than people realize. They did a great job on
30:03
Speaker 2: that TCU offense. They look, State's offense can score, can
30:07
Speaker 2: make big plays on you. Minus the big plays, State
30:09
Speaker 2: couldn't really do anything against Arizona State. I don't know
30:13
Speaker 2: that Utah has got that quick strikeability. And candidly, this
30:17
Speaker 2: ASU offense is pedestrian. I mean that is the bottom line.
30:21
Speaker 2: They're not getting the kind of way play. Oh yeah,
30:24
Speaker 2: they're not getting the quarterback play. He zones in on
30:28
Speaker 2: their best wide receiver way too much. And look, that
30:31
Speaker 2: kid's first rounder. So everybody, yep, yep, everybody, everybody out
30:35
Speaker 2: to zone in on that kid. But at the end
30:37
Speaker 2: of the day, you have got to be able to execute.
30:42
Speaker 2: And he just misses some throws. I mean, Levitt misses
30:45
Speaker 2: some guys at every ball game. He's missing open guys.
30:48
Speaker 2: End of the day. I think this is going to
30:49
Speaker 2: be a slugfest. I think it's going to be a
30:51
Speaker 2: defensive battle. I think we go under forty eight and
30:55
Speaker 2: a half. I think you're looking at a twenty one
30:56
Speaker 2: to seventeen twenty four to seventeen twenty four, twenty something
31:01
Speaker 2: like that kind of ball game.
31:03
Speaker 1: I like it. I love unders baby. You know it's
31:06
Speaker 1: never over Scott until.
31:07
Speaker 2: It's under That's exactly right.
31:10
Speaker 1: Well, let's get let's get some more. I got a
31:11
Speaker 1: couple more of those coming for you than years today.
31:14
Speaker 1: Michigan's traveling out to the coliseum. I love good West
31:18
Speaker 1: Coast football, and I love good football in Los Angeles.
31:22
Speaker 1: It is just such a beautiful thing when I get
31:23
Speaker 1: to turn on an evening game and I've got a
31:26
Speaker 1: five thirty afternoon sunset coming down out there in the coliseum.
31:31
Speaker 1: Michigan traveling out here. They're laying get Michigan's getting two
31:33
Speaker 1: and a half against this USC team. Both these teams
31:36
Speaker 1: are four and one, both are two and three against number.
31:38
Speaker 1: They're vastly different teams. USC is known to throw the
31:41
Speaker 1: ball a little bit more, but they've actually shored up
31:43
Speaker 1: their defense some Michigan Bryce Underwood is getting more into
31:47
Speaker 1: the playbook, and they're just a run ground pound, run
31:51
Speaker 1: ground pround and they don't have any wide receivers that
31:53
Speaker 1: can really exploit anybody in the back end and both
31:56
Speaker 1: the top off the defense. This was a game last
31:58
Speaker 1: year that if you go back and actually look at it,
32:00
Speaker 1: I rewatched, it lie closer than what the score final
32:03
Speaker 1: industry to being. How are you going to roll this one?
32:05
Speaker 2: Scatty, Look, I love sc Here. The travel I think
32:11
Speaker 2: is a big deal, as it always is. You're gonna
32:15
Speaker 2: continue to hear us talk about that when you apply
32:18
Speaker 2: it across the board. These numbers are big. I mean
32:21
Speaker 2: I have started betting pretty much every two and three
32:24
Speaker 2: hour time travel game just depending on what I like
32:28
Speaker 2: about favorite especially favorites on the road. They just simply
32:32
Speaker 2: don't cover very often. And you know, you get back
32:36
Speaker 2: to Washington, figured out a way to squeak that game
32:38
Speaker 2: out last week, they ain't cover, you know. So, I mean,
32:41
Speaker 2: it's it's just constantly, it's just constantly a fight. I
32:45
Speaker 2: like se here. I think they I think they win
32:48
Speaker 2: this ball game because they're the better football team this year.
32:52
Speaker 2: I just don't know that Michigan's offense is gonna be
32:54
Speaker 2: able to keep up enough. I like them here. I
32:57
Speaker 2: like them in a seven to ten point range. I
32:59
Speaker 2: think you get an easy cover on what feels like
33:01
Speaker 2: way too short of the line.
33:04
Speaker 1: Speaking of putting up some points, Arkansas travels out to
33:08
Speaker 1: Knoxville to play Tennessee. Tennessee's got Bama on deck. Arkansas
33:11
Speaker 1: is a wounded pig baby, and Tennessee's laying twelve and
33:15
Speaker 1: a half over under here sixty eight and a half.
33:17
Speaker 1: For you young bucks that hadn't been around a little bit,
33:19
Speaker 1: you're gonna get introduced to a man named Bobby Patrino
33:22
Speaker 1: on Saturday who was the coach at Arkansas about a
33:24
Speaker 1: decade ago before. He had a little sexual issue with
33:28
Speaker 1: some co ed's that were there, and he wrecked a
33:30
Speaker 1: motorcycle and I don't know who I do his boss
33:32
Speaker 1: about it. You can go google all that kind of
33:33
Speaker 1: stuff rolling in here. Arkansas getting twelve and a half
33:37
Speaker 1: over under sixty eight and a half. Arkansas man, they
33:40
Speaker 1: could play it back for their season, and you know,
33:43
Speaker 1: you know for a fact, Bobby Petrino is playing this
33:46
Speaker 1: like this is his last chance to get a head
33:48
Speaker 1: coaching job somewhere. What do we expect Saturday afternoon in.
33:51
Speaker 2: Knoxville points and a bunch of them. Baby. His Tennessee
33:56
Speaker 2: defense is not very good. The pass for us are
33:58
Speaker 2: pretty good, but that's about it. There. They simply get
34:01
Speaker 2: they give up big plays. You can get open on
34:03
Speaker 2: these guys, you can run to their igh grade against
34:05
Speaker 2: the run. I think to cover the past, they have
34:09
Speaker 2: to play more guys back. That opens them up to
34:11
Speaker 2: the run. You got an athletic quarterback in Arkansas and
34:14
Speaker 2: a fabulous offensive coach in Petrino. They fired everybody on
34:19
Speaker 2: that staff for the most part. On the defensive side
34:21
Speaker 2: of the ball, there's no way I'm gonna be stunned
34:24
Speaker 2: if Arkansas plays good defense. I ain't. Petrino knows you're
34:27
Speaker 2: gonna have to outscore people the rest of the way.
34:29
Speaker 2: I think he's got the ability to do that. If
34:31
Speaker 2: they turn it loose, I think he is gonna turn
34:34
Speaker 2: it loose, I ain't. They'll have a couple of big
34:36
Speaker 2: strikes down the field. That's the one thing about patrino
34:39
Speaker 2: offenses that when he was calling the shots every game,
34:43
Speaker 2: they would have one or two huge plays where they've
34:46
Speaker 2: just got a guy running wide open behind the defense
34:50
Speaker 2: and it's a sixty yard touchdown or seventy yard touchdown,
34:53
Speaker 2: and I think he does it. I think he does that. Again.
34:56
Speaker 2: Ain't Tennessee's gonna win the ball game? I ain't. They
34:58
Speaker 2: probably even cover. But at the end of the day,
35:01
Speaker 2: I ain't. We go over sixty eight and a half
35:03
Speaker 2: and you're thinking, man, this is a ton of points.
35:05
Speaker 2: Ain't Tennessee's gonna score forty or forty five? I really do.
35:09
Speaker 2: I mean, I think they're gonna do just what Notre
35:10
Speaker 2: Dame did. The difference is I ain't You're gonna do
35:13
Speaker 2: it faster and I ain't. And I think ND's gonna
35:17
Speaker 2: have it. I mean, Arkansas is gonna have a couple
35:19
Speaker 2: of chances to score, and they're gonna score some points
35:22
Speaker 2: as well. They score in the what are likely the
35:26
Speaker 2: low thirties. I think Tennessee's in the forties or maybe
35:29
Speaker 2: even the fifties. And I ain't g's where this ball game.
35:31
Speaker 2: I don't guess where this ball game goes. I ain't
35:33
Speaker 2: guess numbers gonna hit seventy. I would be stunned if
35:37
Speaker 2: it doesn't.
35:38
Speaker 1: That's awesome. Next two games SEC games Florida, Texas A
35:41
Speaker 1: and m South Carolina LSU. I don't have anything on
35:45
Speaker 1: either one of these games. I think the line's kind
35:47
Speaker 1: of about where I don't want to touch it. I'm
35:49
Speaker 1: interested to watch them both. I'm still kind of waiting
35:51
Speaker 1: for LSU's offense to pop if it's there, and then
35:55
Speaker 1: with Texas A and M it's kind of how real
35:57
Speaker 1: are you? And then what Florida is gonna show up?
36:00
Speaker 1: So I'm interested to watch both these games. I got
36:02
Speaker 1: no play on either one of them.
36:04
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like, you know, I kind of like South
36:10
Speaker 2: Carolina here, just simply because that LSU offense has been
36:14
Speaker 2: so bad. I mean, it is so bad, and it
36:18
Speaker 2: was really bad against Florida, and it was really bad
36:22
Speaker 2: against Florida. I just and certainly this defense from South
36:27
Speaker 2: Carolina is not as good. This is the time to
36:29
Speaker 2: get right at home. You would expect it. I don't know.
36:33
Speaker 2: I think that I'll be interested to see what sellers
36:35
Speaker 2: can do against this defense, because I do think it's
36:38
Speaker 2: LSU defense is good. Don't know that I'm gonna play it,
36:41
Speaker 2: but man, my gut tells me South Carolina is gonna
36:44
Speaker 2: stay within nine and a half on this deal.
36:47
Speaker 1: Something I am going to play. Scottie is Ohio State
36:50
Speaker 1: travels to Champagne on Saturday afternoon. Game will kick off
36:53
Speaker 1: at noon Eastern time. Ohio State's laying fourteen over under.
36:57
Speaker 1: Here's forty nine and a half. I rewatch the Ohio
37:00
Speaker 1: State couple of games this week. That defense is scary.
37:04
Speaker 1: And then the other thing is Illinois plays band coverage
37:07
Speaker 1: at the highest percent of any power for a team
37:09
Speaker 1: in the country, and Julian's saying, man, they're opening up
37:12
Speaker 1: to it. He started making some moves and he's probably
37:15
Speaker 1: got the best wide receiver room in the country in
37:17
Speaker 1: my opinion, and you're starting to see him take shots
37:19
Speaker 1: down the middle of the field, which they weren't doing
37:21
Speaker 1: early on. They're getting confidence in in that defenses behind him.
37:24
Speaker 1: This Illinois team is not as good as they thought
37:27
Speaker 1: they were coming into the season. I think Ohio State
37:30
Speaker 1: fucking smokes Illinois on Saturday.
37:33
Speaker 2: Plus seven straight ball games for Illinois, one of a
37:36
Speaker 2: few teams in the country hadn't already had an off week.
37:40
Speaker 2: They're going on the road to what looks like the
37:42
Speaker 2: best team in the country. Right now.
37:44
Speaker 1: They're home the home.
37:45
Speaker 2: They're home, oh Illinois.
37:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, Illinois at home in this one.
37:50
Speaker 2: Oh they get him at home. Oh Okay, I had
37:52
Speaker 2: that written down wrong the h But I still think
37:56
Speaker 2: that this team is going to struggle. If you play
37:58
Speaker 2: man demand against Jarry Minh Smith, you're gonna get crushed.
38:02
Speaker 2: I mean, nobody does it. It doesn't matter how good
38:04
Speaker 2: your cornerbacks are. You have to give help over the
38:08
Speaker 2: top to that guy or he's gonna beat you. In hell,
38:11
Speaker 2: there's times that they've just thrown it up for grabs
38:14
Speaker 2: this year and he's beat too. I mean, the guy's
38:17
Speaker 2: a great players, he's best wide receiver in college football.
38:20
Speaker 2: He's a super talented kid. They are gonna play man
38:23
Speaker 2: to man. They are gonna have to load up to
38:25
Speaker 2: try to stop this run game. And at the end
38:28
Speaker 2: of the day, I think it's I think this is trouble.
38:30
Speaker 2: I agree with you. I think they're gonna drill them.
38:32
Speaker 2: I think two weeks and I think two weeks in
38:37
Speaker 2: a row for Illinois too, because look, they bounced back,
38:41
Speaker 2: coming back after the embarrassing loss to Indiana. This team's
38:47
Speaker 2: a whole lot better than Indiana. They were at home
38:49
Speaker 2: for that ball game. I think they get drilled as well.
38:54
Speaker 1: Well. They had a plucky Purdue I mean Purdue had
38:56
Speaker 1: some turnovers last week that ended up letting Illinois run
38:59
Speaker 1: away from them, but you know, and then they had.
39:01
Speaker 2: That dog fight with USC.
39:03
Speaker 1: So yeah, their schedule has been tough and to get
39:06
Speaker 1: to where they're at seven games in a row. They're
39:08
Speaker 1: about to play what I think is the best team
39:09
Speaker 1: in the country. Give me Ohio State. I think they
39:11
Speaker 1: walk this one out. They look like they're taking care
39:13
Speaker 1: of business. It's validation, That's what I feel. I feel
39:17
Speaker 1: like it's like when you're playing golf and you gotta
39:18
Speaker 1: validate the whole after you win it, you go to
39:20
Speaker 1: win the next one. I kind of feel like Ohio State,
39:22
Speaker 1: like right now, is validating last year's Natty. It's like, look,
39:25
Speaker 1: we're gonna come back and win this again with the
39:27
Speaker 1: whole new cast of players and just to let y'all
39:30
Speaker 1: know we're here.
39:31
Speaker 2: So and here's the way, here's the here's the thing
39:33
Speaker 2: about Bayla Mont too, in this ball game. I don't
39:37
Speaker 2: think it matters for them. Their goal has always been
39:40
Speaker 2: to make the playoff, to try to get in with
39:44
Speaker 2: into the playoffs this season, and I think BLAM was
39:46
Speaker 2: doing everything. They got an off weekend, they go to
39:49
Speaker 2: Washington and after that every other games wonnerful Ruggers at home, Maryland,
39:56
Speaker 2: at Wisconsin Northwestern, they will to win every one of
39:58
Speaker 2: those ball games, and they all to win them all convincingly.
40:01
Speaker 2: So the bottom line is they's got to figure out
40:05
Speaker 2: if they beat Washington on the road. I think they're
40:07
Speaker 2: in the playoffs nine to three, They're gonna be on
40:10
Speaker 2: the cusp again. Do they make it or do they not?
40:12
Speaker 2: Depends on what else happens in the country and happens
40:15
Speaker 2: in the conference. So I don't think this game necessarily
40:18
Speaker 2: matters nearly as much while it's at home. I think
40:21
Speaker 2: Illinois fans are gonna think they've got a chance. I
40:23
Speaker 2: don't think they do. I think they get drilled.
40:26
Speaker 1: Let's go up to the Pacific Northwest. Indiana's traveling out
40:29
Speaker 1: to Oregon. Play this one here lives seven and a half.
40:33
Speaker 1: With Oregon's laying I'm gonna sit quiet and I'm gonna
40:36
Speaker 1: hope I can get a flight seven and then I'm
40:38
Speaker 1: gonna lay it with the Oregon. I think Indiana is
40:40
Speaker 1: gonna be the big public dog in this space. I
40:43
Speaker 1: think you're gonna hear a whole lot of oil. Oregon
40:45
Speaker 1: beat Penn State, but how good is Penn State they
40:48
Speaker 1: just lost to Ucla. You're gonna get a lot of
40:51
Speaker 1: that sediment. Everybody's gonna remember Indiana hanging a seventy burger
40:54
Speaker 1: or whatever the number was that they put up on
40:56
Speaker 1: that Illinois team a couple of weeks ago. I'm gonna
40:59
Speaker 1: lay it this Oregon team. I've convinced Organ's one of
41:02
Speaker 1: the top four or five teams in the country. I'm
41:04
Speaker 1: hoping I can get a flat seven. I like their offense.
41:07
Speaker 1: I like the creativity of the deep of what they've
41:09
Speaker 1: been calling here. I think this is a better unit.
41:12
Speaker 1: And I think Signetti knows he's got a ball game
41:15
Speaker 1: on his hands because he's been real quiet this week,
41:18
Speaker 1: and typically he's not scared to run his py hole.
41:20
Speaker 1: Give me the Ducks minus seven if I can get it.
41:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like the Ducks here. A couple of things.
41:26
Speaker 2: As I was researching this, you obviously look at it
41:28
Speaker 2: and you think, man, look at Indiana, they're good seven
41:31
Speaker 2: and a half. That seems like way too much. Oh,
41:33
Speaker 2: Indiana looks like the obvious first stat I read when
41:36
Speaker 2: I started looking at Oregon fourteen and four against the
41:38
Speaker 2: spread as a single digit favorite. Boom last eighteen. That's
41:43
Speaker 2: a pretty damn nice number right there. Oregon takes care
41:46
Speaker 2: of business, and they take care of business at home.
41:49
Speaker 2: And I think Dan Lanning, I aink he's the best
41:52
Speaker 2: young coach in college football. I think the guy is exciting.
41:55
Speaker 2: You go look at his background. I mean that dude
42:03
Speaker 2: was a grad assistant in like twenty fourteen. I mean,
42:06
Speaker 2: his career is a rocket ship. I mean just he
42:10
Speaker 2: got opportunities and everybody noticed how good this guy was
42:14
Speaker 2: and it just allowed him to sky me from he
42:16
Speaker 2: went from GA to defensive coordinator at Georgia like overnight,
42:21
Speaker 2: I mean what felt like overnight, and in boom. He's
42:24
Speaker 2: a head coach. I mean, because he's been not like
42:26
Speaker 2: he hadn't been in Washington a couple of years, you know.
42:28
Speaker 2: I mean this is a I mean Oregon a couple
42:30
Speaker 2: of years. So this is a great time. This is
42:33
Speaker 2: a great coach, great coaching staff. Obviously, everybody knows that
42:36
Speaker 2: listens to us. What I think about Signetty. I think
42:39
Speaker 2: he's a fabulous guy. I think he's a fabulous coach.
42:42
Speaker 2: Love HOWKAKEI he is. It's just I mean, it's just
42:45
Speaker 2: one of those I think it's a great matchup. But
42:47
Speaker 2: I do like Oregon here in the points. I think, again,
42:49
Speaker 2: you're getting into travel and I like Oregon. And look,
42:53
Speaker 2: also is a tough place to play. It's loud, the
42:55
Speaker 2: fans are on top of the stadium, all these all
42:58
Speaker 2: these fans think you got to have a Jagani stadium
43:01
Speaker 2: of one hundred thousand people and all that. You don't
43:04
Speaker 2: for it to be a rowdy, raucous home environment. And
43:07
Speaker 2: Austin's one of them. And so I like Oregon here.
43:10
Speaker 2: I just look, I think Oregon's really really good. I
43:13
Speaker 2: really do, and I think it is. And look, they've
43:17
Speaker 2: clearly got money for nil. But I also think Landing's
43:19
Speaker 2: doing a really good job getting players to stay in
43:23
Speaker 2: this program, developing guys. He's doing a better job of
43:27
Speaker 2: that than I think people than I think people recognize.
43:32
Speaker 2: Now I agree with you.
43:32
Speaker 1: Let's do it, baby. I'm all in on Oregon. And
43:36
Speaker 1: this is one of my favorite plays. Texas Oklahoma. This
43:39
Speaker 1: line's being played. Is the Materia's not gonna play laying
43:43
Speaker 1: one and a half over unders forty three and a
43:46
Speaker 1: half Saturday morning. The average fan is gonna wake up
43:49
Speaker 1: and go. I was Oklahoma getting points. Let's bet on them.
43:53
Speaker 1: Texas suck. Look what are they doing? Well, they may suck,
43:57
Speaker 1: but I don't know what you're gonna get from court
44:01
Speaker 1: with the backup quarterback Marshall what's his name, Wiley? I
44:04
Speaker 1: think that's right. He played in this game last year
44:05
Speaker 1: and they scored three points, and so Texas can't move
44:09
Speaker 1: the ball either. We're getting Manning. Is he getting better?
44:13
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think he can read a defense.
44:15
Speaker 1: I really don't think he can read a defense, which
44:17
Speaker 1: surprises me more than anything that he's been there. It's
44:21
Speaker 1: not if he was a freshman or a red shirt freshman,
44:24
Speaker 1: but the fact that he's been in that system for
44:25
Speaker 1: three years and they were like, yo, yeah, we can
44:28
Speaker 1: build around this. They can. The offensive line's not that good.
44:33
Speaker 1: It's given up. It's given them problems all season long.
44:35
Speaker 1: I don't think he can read through the progressions.
44:37
Speaker 2: And they can't run the rock.
44:38
Speaker 1: They ran for like eleven yards last weekend on nine carries,
44:42
Speaker 1: and they just can't get it done. He's the second
44:44
Speaker 1: most sack in the quarterback in the country, only behind
44:46
Speaker 1: Jackson Arnold. I'm going under forty three and a half
44:49
Speaker 1: here because I don't know what you're gonna get from
44:51
Speaker 1: Oklahoma's offense, but I think the defense is going to
44:53
Speaker 1: step up and play. That defense knows what they have
44:56
Speaker 1: to do in this game to keep them in it.
44:58
Speaker 1: The defense, and I think Oklahoma's got a chip on
45:01
Speaker 1: their shoulder, not just against Texas, but I think they've
45:03
Speaker 1: got a national chip on their shoulder because they were
45:05
Speaker 1: hot garbage last year. Most people thought they weren't going
45:08
Speaker 1: to be that great. A couple of pundits writing about him.
45:11
Speaker 1: I think they're like, you know what, fuck you, we
45:13
Speaker 1: can come out with our backup quarterback and prove it here.
45:16
Speaker 1: We'll ride on this defense. I don't know who's going
45:18
Speaker 1: to win the game. If I had to lay it,
45:19
Speaker 1: I probably lay Texas, but I'm going to go under
45:21
Speaker 1: forty three and a half. I think this is gonna
45:23
Speaker 1: be a dogfight in Dallas.
45:26
Speaker 2: Yeah. Mike Halkins Junior is the quarterback. He did quarterback
45:29
Speaker 2: last year, a Frisco High kid Emerson High School, so
45:33
Speaker 2: and obviously Oklahoma thinks they can develop him into something,
45:37
Speaker 2: keeping him because when they brought him, a tear of
45:39
Speaker 2: the natural process as a guy who played as much
45:41
Speaker 2: as he did last year transfers out. That's the way
45:44
Speaker 2: it looks. They obviously did a nice job trying to
45:46
Speaker 2: keep him, convincing him that they had confidence in him,
45:49
Speaker 2: that they could develop him. Here's the deal for me,
45:51
Speaker 2: That Texas offensive line is bad, and I do think
45:54
Speaker 2: that it is got a little bit of gun shy
45:58
Speaker 2: or I think I think Manning's gun shy back there.
46:02
Speaker 2: And this ain't the kind of defense that you that
46:06
Speaker 2: you want to be playing if your offensive line is bad.
46:09
Speaker 2: So I am super glad the Bulldogs don't have to
46:11
Speaker 2: play Oklahoma this year because that defense is nasty and
46:14
Speaker 2: I think you're gonna see a lot of what they
46:15
Speaker 2: did to Auburn. They got back there and just got
46:20
Speaker 2: after the quarterback. Well, they have ten sacks in that game,
46:23
Speaker 2: just a I don't know if they're gonna have ten
46:26
Speaker 2: sacks because he's such an athlete, but at the end
46:29
Speaker 2: of the day, I ain't They're gonna get after the
46:31
Speaker 2: quarterback make him really uncomfortable. I agree, this is low scoring.
46:35
Speaker 2: This feels like a fight in a phone booth. Don't
46:37
Speaker 2: know how Oklahoma's gonna score because Texas defense is better
46:41
Speaker 2: than the is better than the offense. With that offensive
46:45
Speaker 2: offensive line being as bad as it is, this being
46:47
Speaker 2: a really really good Oklahoma defense gonna be fascinating to see.
46:52
Speaker 2: No chance I bring back my tears. I know that
46:55
Speaker 2: I roll this game out, so I like the under.
46:57
Speaker 1: Here. Let's get at one last game. I want to
47:01
Speaker 1: talk about Georgia Auburn, the oldest rivalry in the South.
47:05
Speaker 1: I love the fact that they still put the Chick
47:07
Speaker 1: fil A store up that's on the state line to
47:09
Speaker 1: see who can sell more chicken. Georgia comes in here
47:13
Speaker 1: laying three and a half. They're going to the planes
47:15
Speaker 1: at Jordan Hare over under. Here's forty six and a half.
47:19
Speaker 1: Georgie's four and one straight up. They already have a
47:21
Speaker 1: conference loss, but they're also one and four against the spread,
47:25
Speaker 1: three and two to the over.
47:26
Speaker 2: Under.
47:27
Speaker 1: Auburn comes in here three and two, two and three
47:30
Speaker 1: against the number, one and four to the under. I'll
47:33
Speaker 1: lay it out all this game here. Georgia has no
47:36
Speaker 1: pass rush whatsoever. They have one sack from the defensive
47:40
Speaker 1: lineman all season long, which is crazy when you think
47:43
Speaker 1: that they turned out about nine of those guys in
47:45
Speaker 1: the NFL a couple of years ago, and they really
47:48
Speaker 1: have struggled to put pass pressure into this thing. I've
47:51
Speaker 1: been thinking for weeks. If Auburn's gonna get right, this
47:54
Speaker 1: is the game to do it, just because Arnold may
47:57
Speaker 1: have enough time back there, but with a bye week
48:01
Speaker 1: last week, if Hugh Freeze just not open this offense
48:04
Speaker 1: up and figure out how to use those two wide
48:06
Speaker 1: receivers he's got, that's it's court martial time for me.
48:10
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how you feel about it.
48:13
Speaker 2: The last stand of hooker. Hugh is right here, because
48:18
Speaker 2: if he doesn't win, he's getting fired. Because at the
48:20
Speaker 2: end of the day, at some point, if he doesn't
48:22
Speaker 2: start getting those wide receivers the football and getting them
48:26
Speaker 2: make them plays, You're going to start getting mile content.
48:29
Speaker 2: You're gonna start getting some things like that. Singleton's got
48:32
Speaker 2: to be frustrated looking at what Georgia Tech's doing. You know,
48:35
Speaker 2: he's got to be wondering, Man, what should I have stayed?
48:39
Speaker 2: You know, because at the end of the day, this
48:41
Speaker 2: team is super talented. We did not misread this roster
48:46
Speaker 2: when I said, look, I think this team could have
48:48
Speaker 2: an outside shot. You just didn't know what Arnold was
48:51
Speaker 2: going to be, and we have found out that he
48:54
Speaker 2: is not a quarterback who can read a defense, and
48:56
Speaker 2: he holds the football too long. But I do think
48:59
Speaker 2: this is all ways a really, really good game. But
49:02
Speaker 2: George has dominated this game. I think since sixteen. I
49:06
Speaker 2: think I think Auburn's only won one game. I think
49:09
Speaker 2: that's twenty seventeen, and then George came back beat him
49:11
Speaker 2: in the SEC Championship. So at the end of the day,
49:15
Speaker 2: George has dominated this rivalry for the last few years.
49:18
Speaker 2: But this is the last and of you freeze. If
49:20
Speaker 2: he wants to be back as the football coach, he's
49:24
Speaker 2: either got to win this or got to win Bama.
49:27
Speaker 2: That's the bottom line. And he's got to not stumble
49:30
Speaker 2: somewhere else along the way during the season. He's got
49:34
Speaker 2: all the losses he can get. If he can't start,
49:37
Speaker 2: he's got a he can lose probably one of these
49:39
Speaker 2: two games between George and Bama, nobody else. He's got
49:43
Speaker 2: to get an eight and four at worst, and I
49:46
Speaker 2: think nine to three is where he needs to end up,
49:48
Speaker 2: or they're probably gonna be looking for a football coach.
49:51
Speaker 2: So and I don't know that Arnold's got the capability
49:54
Speaker 2: to do that. I really don't. I think this team
49:56
Speaker 2: has the capability to do it, but I don't know
49:58
Speaker 2: if Jackson, if Jackson ORM does But I think this
50:02
Speaker 2: is just like last week. You get all Auburn's got.
50:07
Speaker 2: The question is is it good enough. We'll find out,
50:10
Speaker 2: but I'll take three and a half. Give it to
50:12
Speaker 2: me because I think they do it. I think it's
50:14
Speaker 2: just like last week. I think they pull it off. Yeah,
50:16
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go ahead and tell you I'm doing
50:18
Speaker 2: an SEC upset, underdog parlay. Gimme Missou, gimme Auburn. I
50:24
Speaker 2: think we have total chaos in the Southeastern Conference because
50:27
Speaker 2: I don't think very many teams are very good. I
50:30
Speaker 2: think we had it wrong. I think Ole, miss Missouri,
50:34
Speaker 2: Texas ay, and that some of those teams may be
50:36
Speaker 2: the best three teams in the league. We're gonna find
50:38
Speaker 2: out by the time it's all said and done. But
50:40
Speaker 2: I know this, none of the teams we thought were
50:42
Speaker 2: gonna be great are good enough to distance themselves from
50:45
Speaker 2: those teams. Give me the points on both those guys.
50:48
Speaker 2: But I think we get two upsets in the SEC
50:50
Speaker 2: this week.
50:51
Speaker 1: I would believe you did one last game. I'll throw
50:53
Speaker 1: it out there and get out the thay maybe deep
50:55
Speaker 1: into it. Any of a state's born one against the number.
50:57
Speaker 1: They're laying seven and a half to traveling to bat
50:59
Speaker 1: and bad is dead man walking teams only scoring fifteen
51:02
Speaker 1: points a game. The San Diego State team is nothing
51:04
Speaker 1: what I thought they were gonna be. But if you're
51:06
Speaker 1: looking for a get back game in the nine thirty slide,
51:09
Speaker 1: don't be scared to get you some San Diego State.
51:11
Speaker 1: So that's my little nugget that you got there, Scotty,
51:14
Speaker 1: were looking at this board. Here you got your little
51:16
Speaker 1: SEC underdog money line parlay. I love everything about that.
51:21
Speaker 1: I got you got anything else for me here?
51:23
Speaker 2: I don't man, that is that is it. There's some
51:26
Speaker 2: great games, there's some games I want to watch. Tc
51:28
Speaker 2: UK State thinks gonna be a great game. Yeah, you
51:31
Speaker 2: know what I tell you.
51:33
Speaker 1: Last week Taylor, they should have won that game, and
51:38
Speaker 1: and so and the other thing I'm looking forward to
51:40
Speaker 1: in the South Florida game is if you're sitting there
51:42
Speaker 1: watching Friday Night, you're gonna go, huh Martine Gramatica's kid
51:46
Speaker 1: kicks for South Florida. That's when you're gonna feel old
51:49
Speaker 1: when you start watching kickers Kickers kids come to start
51:53
Speaker 1: playing for these guys, so it should be good. I
51:55
Speaker 1: maybe play is Texas Tech on Saturday. I think Tech
51:58
Speaker 1: covers fourteen pretty easy against his Kansas team.
52:02
Speaker 2: Yeah. I like that line a lot too. I do
52:05
Speaker 2: think Tech is very, very good. I'm much surprise you.
52:08
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go out west with my favorite line. I
52:10
Speaker 2: think USC gets it done on a short number.
52:13
Speaker 1: I love the fact that you're on the USC train
52:17
Speaker 1: because I was trying to get you on it last
52:19
Speaker 1: year and you wouldn't come on ride with me. I mean,
52:22
Speaker 1: I kept trying to tell you this team's better, and
52:25
Speaker 1: I think Lincoln Riley man, he's turning the corner out there,
52:29
Speaker 1: and you don't want to wake a sleeping giant in
52:31
Speaker 1: the Big Ten. If you get a good LA team
52:34
Speaker 1: and he can recruit out there, how much fun is
52:37
Speaker 1: the Big Ten gonna be?
52:38
Speaker 2: Because before we get off, can I just go ahead
52:44
Speaker 2: and tell you what the ACC doesn't need is Stanford
52:48
Speaker 2: billionaires getting pissed off and dropping fifty million dollar checks.
52:52
Speaker 2: That's what they don't need, because I'm gonna tell you something.
52:56
Speaker 2: They offered that education with a bunch of cheat and
53:00
Speaker 2: let me tell you they're gonna be back really good
53:03
Speaker 2: at football, really fast. And I will tell you, if
53:08
Speaker 2: I'm the ACC, you better get your kicks in now,
53:11
Speaker 2: because that money was basically said, this goes strictly to
53:14
Speaker 2: the football program. No no buildings, you know, no endowment,
53:19
Speaker 2: no nothing that. And let's fa you get fifty million
53:21
Speaker 2: to the football team, that's going straight to nil. Is
53:24
Speaker 2: where that's going. And look, and I'm just telling you
53:28
Speaker 2: what donors. Texas Tech has experienced this with Cody Campbell.
53:31
Speaker 2: You get rich guys start writing checks and it pisses
53:34
Speaker 2: off the other rich guys and they start writing checks. Man,
53:37
Speaker 2: we may all look up in Stanford's talking around one
53:40
Speaker 2: hundred million, like we're fixed to get serious, you know,
53:43
Speaker 2: so I.
53:45
Speaker 1: Calgarithm. Yeah, wait till the calgarithms in there. I mean
53:50
Speaker 1: ACC is after travel out west, it would be good.
53:54
Speaker 1: They don't want that at all.
53:55
Speaker 2: And people don't realize the sheer volume of nerds that
54:01
Speaker 2: go to those schools that are uber wealthy, I mean
54:06
Speaker 2: billionaire wealthy. I mean that the last thing the ACC
54:09
Speaker 2: needs is cal and Stanford getting serious about NIL and
54:13
Speaker 2: pumping money into it because they're all gonna be traveling
54:16
Speaker 2: three and four hours to go get their ass kicked
54:19
Speaker 2: by a team that's got a bunch of money. And
54:21
Speaker 2: make no mistake, they got money. And if Stanford starts
54:24
Speaker 2: pouring money into this deal, they'll make anybody on the
54:27
Speaker 2: West coast look bad. That's the that's the bottom mine.
54:30
Speaker 2: Just look at their I mean look at their endowma.
54:32
Speaker 2: If you got any questions about that, it's a question
54:35
Speaker 2: of do those boosters want to get serious about sports?
54:38
Speaker 2: Clearly an ex athlete did writ in a big check yesterday,
54:41
Speaker 2: so that just I'll leave you with that. Gonna be
54:44
Speaker 2: a fascinating off season, buddy, It's gonna be a fascinating
54:47
Speaker 2: off season.
54:49
Speaker 1: Love, It's gonna be a great Saturday man. A lot
54:51
Speaker 1: of grut games, but and a lot of hard work.
54:52
