  Speaker 1: And we're back to the Craigway Show. Have a message
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: for Craig, share it by using the talkbacks feature on
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app. Georgia and Notre Dame still tied up
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: at three apiece in the All Stage Sugar Bowl, about
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: to get to halftime. Here, Georgia would force a Notre
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Dame punt, but Notre Dame would then force a Georgia punt,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: so the Iris getting the ball back with about three
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: minutes to go in the second quarter. Both teams have
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: three timeouts, both teams only with three points real quick
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: before we get to some more postgame sound courtesy of
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Will Matthews and Longhorn Radio Network. Stat from Jael Goodrich,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: my colleague and good friend at burn Origination dot com,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: I mentioned that Matthew Golden needed only needs only fifty
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: six yards to reach the one thousand yard mark this season. Well,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: he's already at ten touchdowns. So if Golden gets that
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: and a touchdown against Ohio State, so sixty four yards
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: and a touchdown, he will be the first Texas receiver
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: to have one thousand yards in ten touchdowns since Jordan
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Shipley in two thousand and nine. They've had a couple
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: one thousand yard receivers in the last thirteen years, had
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a couple ten touchdown years, but never one thousand and
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: ten touchdowns since two thousand and nine. Matthew Golden was
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: actually sorry sixty four yards in a touchdown against Ohow State.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Will be the first receiver since Jordan Shipley in two
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: thousand and nine to accomplish that fee. And let's hear
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: from him, Matthew Golden, who had the game tying touchdown
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and the go ahead two point conversion in double overtime.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Matthew, you've heard everything that he said. You played the
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: game us through your feelings from the beginning all the
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: way to the end. Adversity didn't stop you do.

  Speaker 3: a hard fare battle, you know, sixty minutes, so you know,
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: just just keeping faith in God and having my brothers
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: with me, just knowing that that whenever adversity comes, we
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: got to strike back the right way, and that's what
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: we did.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Having sure hands is super important, and tonight you were
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: very sure handed. Talk me through what's going on your
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: mind when the balls in the air and you gotta
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: do your thing.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: You know, just just just looking at it as like
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: that's the that's the only opportunity that you'll get for
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: the rest of the game, you know, So treating that
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: one play like that's gonna be your last play. Just
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: telling myself that, you know, I got to make the
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: play regardless of what the dB is, you know, and
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: props to quit in the whole line, giving him enough time,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: you know, to deliver the ball to me in the.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Right at the right time.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Man, you got started off really really fast early on,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: and then after that some adversity and some things happen.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Can you walk us through what happened.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: In the first quarter moving on into the safe you.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Know, just trying to find rhythm as an offense. You know,
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: then we came out, you know, we started finding a
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: little rythm and then we got going, you know, so
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: just like I said, just being together as an offense
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: and just knowing that, you know, every play not gonna
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: go the right way, so coming back in and just
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: regrouping and then just just going down the field at
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: one play at a time.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Man, Matt Sarkos talks about resilience that you guys really
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: put that to the test.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: What's the mindset when all of a sudden.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: They've got the lead, you're looking at at fourth and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: thirteen with your season.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: On the line. I mean that just got back to
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: the summer workouts we had with coach back, you know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: them seven quarter runs, anything that we had to do
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: as a team. You know, that's just putting our back
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: against the wall. You know, we like it that way.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: You know, we don't want it any other way. So
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: just knowing that we're gonna count on each other in
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: times like that and we're gonna come out on top
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: whatever we gotta do.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Did you have a view of Macoba's interception. Oh yeah,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: I've seen it.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: That was not that was not exactly.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Inclamation point right there, Matthew, Thank you so much appreciation.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: He enjoyed this one.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I see you in Dallas. Yeah, let's do it. And
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: it wasn't just the touchdown and overtime and the two
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: point conversion. There is that fourth and two in the
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: first half. My goodness, a gutsy play call. I couldn't
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: believe Quinton threw that ball to the boundary on the
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: left side. Of the field on fourth down, it was
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: converted and ultimately Texts would have to settle for a
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: field goal. But there's that chemistry between Quinn and Matthew Golden.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: They have moments like that where it's like, Okay, that's
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: the Queen yours, that's the big game, Quinn, that's the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Queen Ewers that I think scouts the NFL level say, okay,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: he can be a first round quarterback because he delivers
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: a ball as like that that one the fourth and
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: thirteen and the ball the gunner help able to navigate
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the pocket, step up, fire at dart, get the touchdown,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: put Texas up, and then to throw the Matthew Golden
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: in double overtime thirty nine thirty one and the rest,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: as they say, is history. So what a performance for
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Matthew Golden against sixty four yards away in a touchdown,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: for being the first Texas wide out tep one thousand
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: yards in ten touchdowns in one season since Jordan Shipley
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: in two thousand and nine. And Golden may only play
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: one year Texas, but shout out the transfer portal because
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: he's going to leave a legacy here in Austin for
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: years to come and Ultimately, if Texas can find a
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: way to Atlanta for the third time this year, it'll
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: be a big part. A big reason why is because
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: of Matthew Golden and his relationship with Quinn. Yours more
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: than come here on the Craig Way Show. We still
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: have some postgame sound from Alfred Collins, Gunner Heelm, and
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Andrew mccooba. Update on this game at the All State
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. Still tied up at three apiece,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: neither touch neither team wants to score a touchdown. We've
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: seen some good plays from Gunnar Stockton in Ryland or
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Right now, Notre Dame does have the football. I believe
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: they are facing third down right now, they're nearer midfield.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I think it's third and one right now, tied up
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: at three apiece. Both teams with three timeouts just reached
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: the two minute time out as they call it, and
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Leonard just got the first down on third and one
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame at midfield under two minutes. Tied up at
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: three apiece. The Fighting Irish will begin the second half
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: on offense in this matchup between the two seed and
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the seventh seed with a shot at Penn State next week.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: The winner of that, of course, will face will reach
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: the national championship and face the winner of Texas and
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Ohio State. And by the way that Texas Ohio State game,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I believe for the first time all year, Texas will
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: be an underdog in this one. The line opening up
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: at Ohio State minus five and a half. I'm sorry
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: opened up at five. It has climbed the sixth, so
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Ohio State almost a touchdown favorite over the Longhorns next
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: week at the College Football Playoffs semi final at the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic Morning, come here to the Craig
