  Speaker 2: Kick eleven o'clock whatever time it is out there, eleven
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: o'clock eastern noonkick, which is the best that you came
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: to a clock, not eleven o'clock eastern.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Eleven is central out there? Yeah? Whatever they are? Yeah,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: you know, you think they'd be Senator. Do you think
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: they would be farther away than Central, wouldn't you? You
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: think what they border? Arizona, Arizona.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Nobody knows what time it is in Arizona.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: It's right, we went in Arizona. It was three hours back.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Now you're kind of like semi close to Arizona. It's
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: only one. We'll see if we can get that fix
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: this week, all right, final home game of the season.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: West Virginia bounces back after the performance against Baylor and
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: they knock off the Knights of UCF. Pretty interesting game
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: for a couple of different reasons. Right. UCF came in
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: as the number two rushing team in the nation, second
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: only to Army, and that's what Army does. And you
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: didn't know exactly what you were going to get. Quite honestly,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: I wasn't exactly sure. No one was. But when I
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: talked to the head coach Friday, he was extremely comfortable
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: and confident with their preparation. Guys were out there having
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: fun all week in practice. They were involved, they were
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: into it, they worked hard, and then when that snow
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: came on Thursday, they're out there just running around having
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: a big time. And he said, we're good mentally. Now
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: can you go out and can you do it on
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the field and can you execute? And we learned right
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: from the beginning that they were ready to do it
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: because for the first time in eighteen games, correct, West
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Virginia gets the up, they go on defense to start
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the game, and which gives you the ball to start
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the second half. That worked.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: We'll get into middle eight.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: We'll get into middle eight.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: That's where it was won right there.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Fourteen's up middle eight, and so you get the ball,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: you drive and you go, hmmm, I like this, that's
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: pretty good. Well you got to stop it stopped them
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: in a minute. Yeah that's than a minute.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Start it any better? I don't know if that's a
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: gusmells On like overthinking it, Like West Virginia wants the ball,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: so we're going to try and switch it up, which understands. Yeah, right,
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: I understand the thought process. That part didn't work because
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: you let a defense that you weren't sure what you
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: were going to get. I'm not sure the defense knew
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: what it was going to do. It gets a stop,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: it's bouncing as confidence and you still got the ball
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: the first time if you're West Virginia and marched it
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: right down the field for a score.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Great start. Yeah, so we'll break it down. Well, we'll
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: look into the numbers and what's it all mean now
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: that West Virginia you know, has a chance. And then
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: big picture, are you serious the league yesterday?
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: League's topsy turvy.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Oh, everyone's got at least two losses, and you have
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: these just big chunks at the top. And then after
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: that and West Virginia's in that second chunk of teams
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: that are just like all mouted up here.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Preseason media poll couldn't have been further off for who
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: was going to be good and who wasn't total miss,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: which is to be expected when you have a league
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: that you thought you looked top to bottom and said,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: how do you decide who's going to be who in
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: this league? That's the one prediction I think in college
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: football that's turned out to be right is that the
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: Big Twelve would be balanced and competitive.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: How many games are three point spreads either way? And
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: you've seen that that's playing out with Arizona with another
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: good win. They continue on even though there were so
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: serious chaos at the end. Arizona State excuse me. And
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: then Iowa State last night another game for Iowa State,
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: they were a whisker from having a yak bad loss
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: at Utah, who showed up and played. They had to
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: pull it out there late with Roco with some more heroics.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so it makes for an interesting week coming up
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: here in the league. For West Virginia. Okay, you're not
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: going to Dallas, but you could win six games in
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the conference. You could go six and three in the league,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and West Virginia's never won six and six together back
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: to back years in the conference, so that would be
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: quite significant. It's going to be tough. What do you
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: think the line's going to be for Texas Tech.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: That's what we're talking about last night. Power ranking wise,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: it should be in that three range. Again, Texas Tech
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: favored by three or so. Maybe they get an extra
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: point or so just to see where you get some plays.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: But if you look just strength at power ratings, it
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: should be Texas Tech by three or a little bit less.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: All right, let's look straight ahead into our periscope. We
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: look forward and we look into Hoppies obvious observations. H
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: oh oh who By the way, we got a song
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: coming out.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry real quick before he does that. DraftKings is
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: out early with their line Texas Tech three and a half.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Every game is three and a half.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead. Sorry, just wanted to confirm anything obvious
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: from the game. Hoppy, Yeah, a.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Lot of obvious.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: What was it?
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: First of all, let me start with the crowd. The
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the knee jerk Is crowd was terrible. No, the crowd
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: was great. The folks that turned out for a team
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: that had struggled at home in lousy weather against a
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: non name opponent, an on ranked opponent. That crowd, they came,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: they were into it. They suffered through bad conditions and
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: they helped. Number one second thing is great start. We
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: already talked about that, you know. And you got a
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: three and out then you score. It was a great
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: start that helped the crowd as well. Middle eight, Brad,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: I'll let you talk about that. But the middle eight
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: was where as you said, where Neil Brown said, the
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: game was won. You possessed the ball in the second
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: half twenty to ten.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: That was big.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: You got some of those drives that you needed to
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: run clock, so that was important. And two big fourth
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: down conversions. West Virginia was four of four on fourth down,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: big pass completions to Huddy and to Robinson, and that
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: completion to Robinson, very same play from the week before
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: that he dropped, went back to it. It was a
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: great play. This time he out the ball, got a
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: big first down, huge on that fourth down play.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Guys made plays.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: Does it Does it make a difference when guys make
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: plays helps like Hoodie making a play like Gallagher. There's
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: a great catch by Gallagher a great catch it to
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: twist his body, turned around, catch it with one hand.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: That was big. H CJ. Donaldson had one of his
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: best games.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: Ran hard, ran hard, lowered the pads, low pad level,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: bred ninety sixty yards, two touchdowns, ran behind his pads.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Special teams once again, special teams effective.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: Pac Man Fox, pac Man Fox.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: More than effective. Darn near the difference.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: In the game.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: We'll get into that straw average fifty yards of punch,
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: got a rare personal foul.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Punched a guy right in my head, is what he is.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: I never saw I never saw it, never seen that.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: We'll get into whole Oliver straw thing. We will explain
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: the reasons why he may have been a little bit amplified.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: We will, though, But add that to the TJ. Simmons
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: blocking out a bounds flag on things. I don't think
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: I've ever seen that only get called at Mountaineerfield. Yeah,
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: personal foul the punter, Yeah, weird sovab.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: You know, it was a great punt, and he had
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: he had a great game. Hayes quietly was extremely effective. Well,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: season's not over, but I think eleven of twelve is Tony.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: I think eleven of twelve yeah, yeah, erect so just
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: just solid, just solid as a rock. R. J. Harvey
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: did get his one thirty, okay, but he didn't get more.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: He heard he didn't get two thirty.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: He didn't get Yeah, he didn't get one eighty or
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: one seventy. And that was really their offense. They kept
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Risk uncomfortable. He had a couple of big plays, he
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: had the big touchdown pass, but they kept him uncomfortable.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: They got a little bit of pressure on him, not
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: so much sacks, but got pressure on him.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: So, in summary, this is the closed of Hoppies. Obvious observations.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I'll say, oh, well, clean, two penalties, no turnovers.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Clean.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: So at this point in the year where there is
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: legitimate question and evaluation, so whether Neil Brown and his staff,
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: whether they keep their jobs. You put together complimentary football
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: on a funky day. Good offense, good defense, good special teams.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: It was evident that Neil Brown has not lost the team.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: They still played hard, they played one of their better games,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: They won the game, their bowl eligible, they have a
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: chance to win six in the league. A solid performance
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: by this Mountaineer team, well coached, well played, Happy for him.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: What well, I'm laughing because he went, he'd started with
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: obvious observations and he finished in between. He used every
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: bullet point for the entire show. You get you through.
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: I mean you didn't have to give every single one
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: year things. You gave a lot there.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I was getting a little bit he's getting a little
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: bit full of himself on these obvious observations.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Now you threw stats in there. You went down through
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: every end of when you start through every player on
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: the roster and their individual performance. You did all three level.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: That was Listen, here's what happened. Here's what's happened. You've
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: made this too complicated. When you started obvious observations, you
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: would go like, all, right, obvious ovations. West Virginia played UCF,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Mountaineers were blue uniforms. WVU was at home. It's disrespectful
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: and the Mountaineers won. Okay, those are my obvious observations.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Brad taken away. Now, I mean you're starting to do
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: a dissertation.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: No, no, because Brad, I got my obvious observations are
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: just that they're obvious, and the stats are obvious, and
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Brad always goes to the next level.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know why I gotta attack Brad saying that's
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: stuff that he does is simple. You're basically saying what
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: he does is obvious. That is what you just said.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: No, no, all right, I'm sorry. Mountaineers were blue uniforms.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: They looked good, and I'm not a uniform guy.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: I like that look. The all blue is always a
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: good look.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I like that too.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: All right, I'll tone it down for the next game.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Wait, things are going you might be doing next one.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Byter so he has some travels cit the spreads.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: He took all the observations there for the for the
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: high point of game.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Do you want to hit the spreads already? Not yet?
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: That was you're right hot. That was a good game
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: from all three levels, all three sides of the ball,
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: as some say, and did what you had to do right.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: This is going to be one of those when we
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: get into the numbers. The numbers don't wow you. In fact,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: you got beaten some statistical categories there, But that's one
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: of those where you did exactly what you had to
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: do to win and get that done. The defense step
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: back and gave a performance against what's a difficult team
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: to play against on the ground. We thought going in
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: strength on strength UCF running it against what's been a
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: good run defense for West Virginia that played itself out.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: I'll get into some of those numbers coming up, and
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: then offensively, you know, especially those fourth downs. You mentioned
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: four for four on fourth. We'll get into that a
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: little more specifically, but that was some big boy players
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: there on four.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: It wasn't a fourth down in a yard now. There
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: was a four to eight and a four and eleven.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, those were impressive, Garrett. Was some good throws
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: you mentioned Robinson. I was glad to see him pop
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: back on that similar play that we'd seen last week.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Makes the catch.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: Let me ask you, Totty was really good. Let me
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: ask you this on the Hudson Clement cat late, did
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: you think it was picked? No?
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: But it was close?
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, but at first, did you look at it,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: like did thee say.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Because I know not in real time, I didn't, but
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: when they showed the replay from up top, it was
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: a lot like I was close.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: I thought. I didn't say it. I didn't say it,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: but like I'm looking at it and I see the
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: dude go whizzing by, and then I see his teammate
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: kind of like turn like he might have caught it
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: and they're turning to go back on a return after
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: the play was picked, like I thought, like because it
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: happened so fast, and I'll see Hudson like running out
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: of bounds. I went, all right there it was ballgame. Yeah,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: that was big. Yeah, ballgame. So basically what West Virginia
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: did yesterday was in nautical terms, they just dropped their
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: anchor and they said, we're not moving. We're gonna win
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: our final home game. You know, when it comes to
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: dropping anchors, you have to visit lou Wendell Marine Sales,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: located in Saint Albans. They just happened to be the
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: premiere pontoon boat dealer in the state of West Virginia.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: You can get anchors of any size there as well,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: but when it comes to pontoon boats, they sell the
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Avalon pontoon boat, which is manufactured one hundred percent here
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: in the United States, located up in Michigan. And those
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: G three, those John boats, those are in just one word, terrific.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: You seem particularly interested in those. I wouldn't mind taking
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: a ride. Maybe, you know, if we could go down
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: to lou Wendel one of these days and maybe they'll
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: put one in the water there, we go up and
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: down there. It says G three right on there. And
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: so they're wonderful for fishing, and a whole lot more
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: so when it comes to boats of all types. Visit
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Lou wendolw Marine says fifty plus years they're in this business,

  Speaker 1: Visit Conley CPA Group. Canoe Curtis, all time sack leader
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: for the Mountaineers at the game yesterday, really yeah, biking
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: a chance to run into him, but I think he said,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: like first game back, likes going.
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: To say he had been back a lot.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Has like in ever, like in years and years.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Awesome, so he'd have him back.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so he came back pretty good player, he could play.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he come up field a little bit. Yeah,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: come up field a little bit. What do the numbers say.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: Let's dive in. Let's start with how we normally start.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: Let's take a look back at what we said Thursday
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: were some keys and how did those play out? First
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: and foremost, we led with what guys. Turnovers no ol, Yeah,
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: you always leave the turnovers. We'll come back to that.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: No.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: We led with can you slow down UCF's running game?
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: That was number one, and you really did for the
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: most part. You mentioned it hop that Harvey got a
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: buck thirty technically below is average averaging one thirty three,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: so you held him in check. That's the nation's number
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: two running team, Tony, you pointed that out. You held
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: them to nearly one hundred yards less than what they'd
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: been averaging per game on the ground. Very good. How
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: about this number, Only twenty seven percent of UCF's plays
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: were run in West Virginia territory.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: That's very good.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: That's very good. Held UCF scoring wise two touchdowns below
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: their season average, held them to points on just three
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: of ten drives. So overall, I thought defensively that they
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: should get a lot of credit for that. Guys, they
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: played a really good game enough to get you to win.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: Didn't give up the huge explosive plays. There was one
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: big pass play other than that they were in they
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: were in position right. They played a very solid game
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: and that was what they needed in a bounce back situation.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: One of the areas that they were so good at defensively,
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: and it was a question we asked on Thursday, could
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: you get some pressure on a young, inexperienced quarterback that,
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: if you could, was likely to struggle was our hypothesis
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: on Thursday. Guess what happened.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Huh Yeah.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: I think they got some pressure and didn't get these
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: sacks really, but got pressure on him and he did
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: not have a great day.
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: No question, highest graded defender, and we'll get into grades
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: coming up, but Tyron Bradley was your highest grade defender.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: I felt like we said his name one hundred times
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: in the first half in particular, he was noticeable and
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: was all over the field. One of the biggest plays
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: of the game, of course, was the turnover right and
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: Bradley was the cause of that. He was shot out
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: of a cannon off that left side, right side of
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: the defense, coming on the left side of the UCF line,
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: blew that mesh point up between the quarterback and running
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: back caused the fumble. If you go back to the
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: play immediately before that, he was on the opposite side
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: and ran all the way across the field and tracked
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: the ball carrier down. So he was really active and
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: was in the backfield a lot. You got enough pressure
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: on risk early that it was clear he wasn't going
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: to be capable of beating you there if they had
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: to throw the ball. And I thought you saw that
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: even in the second half when if you look at
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: his numbers, not terrible yards per attempt were pretty good.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: They threw it down the field a little bit, but
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: you could see they weren't comfortable with him throwing it.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: They did a lot of stuff laterally there and weren't
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: willing to throw it down down the field. He ended
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: up one for six for fourteen yards when he was
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: under pressure passes that weren't screens eight of eighteen. So
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: I thought West Virginia did what it had to do
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: when they had to throw the ball. You did enough
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: on the run to slow them down and force them
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: into some passing situations when they had to throw. It
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: was clear West Virginia had the advantage in that situation.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, even on their first drive, right, he threw it.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, he threw it twice and they
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: were both like not good balls, and you kind of
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: went like, oh, okay. You know, sometimes quarterback zips is
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: first two in there, he gets a little bounce. I
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: thought like right from the beginning that was.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: Almost too clever. By half too you come out throwing
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: the ball. I would have given it to Harvey three times.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Probaly wouldn't been a bad idea.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Let's jump around on some other things here. You know,
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: end of possession downs are really good. Eight of eleven
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: in the first half when you took control of that game.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Let's say that again. Eight of eleven on end of
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: possession downs, that's really good. We already talked about the
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: four for four on fourth downs throughout the game, and
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: there were some obvious big ones late to seal it.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: Let's talk middle eight for a second. That's the final
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: four mins of the first half, first four minuts of
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: the second. Coaches talk about that a lot. If you
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: can win the middle eight, you generally end up with
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: a win West Virginia, Tony. You mentioned it early, fourteen
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: to nothing in that area, got a score late in
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: the first half, and then started the second half. That
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: really was the game right there. That that sealed it
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: for you. And I know it got a little bit
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: hairy later you started to get a little bit nervous,
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: but really that was the moment when you had it.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: Your EPA expected points added during that time. Total EPA
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: in the middle eight was nearly six times what UCF's
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: EPA was, which backs up that fourteen to nothing.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: And Brady got a big They got a big fourth
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: down on that touchdown late in the first half. Remember
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: it was a question that should to go for the
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: field goal. No, they went, which we still would have
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: put them up two scores, but when four and fourth
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: down got it and got a touchdown, yeah it.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Special teams I mentioned were we're outstanding. How about this
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: for a number. Go back to expected EPA for a second.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: You had better EPA on special team than you did
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: for your offensive EPA for the game. That's how much
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: that game hinged on. And some of that comes from
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: Alistraw's punting, and you get expected points added because of
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: the position he put the defense in, which changes field
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: position hoppy, which is going to give you some expected
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: points added to your score, right because you think you're
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: going to get the ball back and be able to
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: score easier. And then pac Man Fox was tremendous on
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: a couple of different kick returns. So that's that's one
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: of those hidden yardage phases where you if you end
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: up with a better EPA on special teams than you
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: did on your offense. That's that's absolutely tremendous. That led.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Let me confirm this. I'll put it in last side.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: That led to guys, you know, I like to go
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: to this number A lot A plus eleven yard field
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: position advantage. What I always say, if you're over ten
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: ninety some percent plus win probability.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: So saw that again, Cincinnati.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: You did so defense and special teams. I thought we
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: were really really good. All right, let's do some individual
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: performances here. Ali Straw's won. I think I think you gotta.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: You know, if we just said special TEAMSZP.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: He was really good.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: You got to start with straw fifty four yard punty,
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: bang that right.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Flip the field with tho his feet back on the
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: back of the goal.
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: Line, popped it back of the end, put them back
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: in their territory. Had that one where they had to
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: take a fair catch on the six. That was another
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: good punt. And then the one we talked about, just
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: an unbelievable kick that he drops and just kills it.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: That back spin on those punts and it just died
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: inside the five. And then again the bizarre personal foul
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: call on a punter, which I really don't know that
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: I've ever seen that. But Allie was outstanding. Pac Man
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: Fox with the two big kick returns, the second one
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: set up the touchdown in the second half. He was tremendous.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Hudson Clement, Right, we kept saying, who's going to step
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: up and make a play. Hudson did. Sixty eight percent
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: of your passing yards went to Hudson Clement, sixty eight percent. Guys,
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: talk about a guy that needed to play, and the
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: passing game was good and really effective. He made some
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: big time plays.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the question was right with Treil and Ray's injury,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: who was going to step up? Well, Hudson went like,
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: I got it. Yeah, grow to me, I'll take care
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: of it.
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: You mentioned CJ having a really good game. He was
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: good early right got the start and was running hard
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: right from the beginning. Credit the offensive line, especially early.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: They opened up some lanes that got a little hairy
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: late because that defensive front for UCF caused some problems
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: there there when you can start to go into the
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: run stuffs for the different teams, UCF had an advantage there.
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: They got after it up front. They had some big
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: dudes up there, but early that running game was clicking.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: CJ was important to that. West Virginia had fifteen rushing
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: first down CJ had nine of those. Shows you what
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: kind of game he had when he mattered in those situations.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: His most yardage this season against a Power four opponent.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: PFF grades. Let's look into this.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: A little bit talking about individual grades for players. Here
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: we're going to do.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: I'm going to do some team grades first, then we'll
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: get into some individuals. Team wise, how about this, hopy,
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: third best defensive grade of the season came against came yesterday,
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: which is very good. But here's the important part here.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Two of your three best defensive grades have happened in
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: the last three weeks.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Really wow, two of your best, right, Yeah, well I
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: can believe that.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Cincinnati and this one playing better, we.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Make we make that three out of four. Next week
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: at Tech, you're going to be tested, be tested, but yeah,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: you'd like to.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Your coverage grade in particular, averaged a fifty point eight
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: through the first seven games, and for most of those
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: seven games, it was the worst coverage grade in the country,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: the single worst. So a fifty point eight grade and
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: think of that on it like a school grading scale
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: zero two one hundred. Fifty is not good up, you
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: don't want to get a fifty. But in the last
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: four games that has jumped to a sixty six point four.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Can you give me that again?
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Sure, fifty point eight coverage grade through the first seven
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: games jump to sixty six point four over the last
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: four games. So coverage is improved leading to two of
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: your three best defensive scores.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: That's a substantial improvement.
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: It's a huge jump late in a season when generally,
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: as we've talked about, you kind of are what you
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: are now. There's been some obvious changes that have helped,
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: but that's general. Uh yeah, that's a that's a heck
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: of an improvement from a unit that was as bad
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: as you could get. That has made itself much more
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: playable now than what it was. Okay, what do you
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: want to do?
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: First?
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Offense?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Sure you could.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: You could probably guess the top probably guess the top
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: three without much trouble.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: CJ, Garrett and Hodey.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: Correct in different order. Hude, he won CJ two, Garrett three.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Just for the record, those were obvious, they were.
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: That was my special due you mentioned the hop you
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: mentioned Rodney Gallagher. He comes in at number four. That
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: was a That was a That was a really nice play.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: A couple of things on that that touchdown to the corner,
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: so great protection right there. Garrett had time really good
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: throw because he led him to the back corner right
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: where there's only there was either going to be a
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: catcher and incompletion. But that route by Gallagher was really good.
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: He came out and took the hard jab inside and
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: that defensive back hopped and Steve done that pointed out
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: does he has to hop right? Because you can't give
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: up inside when you're that defensive back right. You want
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: to make them throw it to the back corner if
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: they have to. So the corner did what he was
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: supposed to, but but hopped. Gallagher turned and went back
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: and then the pass was exactly where it needed to be.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: Now Gallagher did have to spin to catch it, but
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: they that was a really well executed play.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: You think he needs new shoes? Who Rodney? Why did
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: he slipped twice? I mean twice? He was mad the
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: second time because they set that little screen up to
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: the visitor's sideline and he was ready to rip that
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: thing up. Might have been a jet sweep. But anyway,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: he was turning up and he slipped, so he might
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: they want want to get what do you call those
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: those shark cleats? So we need to get Brad remember
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: that put to shark the mako shark cleats in there.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Maybe get some of those.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: Maybe didn't need it on that play. No nice play.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: Defensive grades. You can probably guess who number one was, Wilson, No,
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: who didn't. We just talk about Tyron Breathy. Really good
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: eighty five grade for Tyron he got after it. Number
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: two this is this was good to see him elevate
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: up here. Trey Lathan, Yeah, he was around friend of
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: the show. He was really good. And then number three
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: just continues.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Hop.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: I talked about him in pregame. He was my pick
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: for defensive player of the game. Like who had to
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: make a make some plays. The Torma Molebuck was graded
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: well again he is really playing well.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: Happy then and then two others that I think are
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: worth noting. One on senior day West Virginia and Shawn
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: Martin had a nice game, led the team with four
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: total pressures on the day, so good for Sean had
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: that nice run stop as well.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: How about he only had one tackle officially, but it
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: was at the end of the half where he took
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: that running back and basically wwe move yes, just kind
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: of like picked him up and just a yes, threw
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: him down on the ground.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was credited with those four pressures. So that
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: was that was really well done. Dantes Fagan at number five,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: who I said yesterday during our show, has quietly come
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: on and had had pretty good numbers on here and
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: and has shown you a few things. But he ends
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: up as your fifth highest graded defender.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's good. Happy for Happy for Garrett to go
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: out with a you at home. He had about thirty
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: he approximately about thirty people there. Oh did he Yeah? Yeah,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: he did. Family come in, So it's a that's a
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: big deal.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Speaking of Garrett. You know what, I thought one of
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: the other more important I'm gonna give you a couple
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: other numbers here and just sec but one of the
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: other important moments and it only ended in a field goal,
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: so he only got three points out of it. And
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: Garrett was big. He had a massive scramble on fourth
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: down from westernen Is from the thirty five yard line.
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: When he took off, he didn't think he was going
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: to be able to get there. He gets it eight
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: minutes and thirty six seconds off the clock, killed the
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: third quarter, and then chewed some fourth quarter clock. I
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: thought that was massive. Now, win percentage wise, it only
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: added one point eight percentage to your win percentage total
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: because you already had pretty much command of that. But
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: I thought that was huge to chew up That's an
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: army like eight minute drive to chew up clock when
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: you did not need to give the ball back to
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: them and let them get going. I thought that was huge.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: And his scramble on fourth was big.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean they fifteen minute advantage in time of possession,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: so in essence, they had the ball for one quarter more.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: So you see if only had it for three right,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: he could only have it for three quarters.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: And you can't do that unless you make plays four
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: for four on fourth down.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: We talked about that.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: I forget what third down was with good percentage on
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: third down, but just you know, making plays.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, third down ended up. You were eight of eighteen
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: on third, four of four on four. So your possession
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: downs you're twelve of twenty two. You're over fifty percent. Yeah,
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: let's look at I like to do this here lately.
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: I think these are interesting to see these win percentage
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: added plays, like what plays were the biggest of the game.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Courtesy of Game on paper dot Com. Biggest ad of
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: the game was the defensive play on the fumble that
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: cost UCF a ten point four percent win percentage advantage.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: There they were getting ten percent.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: They were inside the thirty at that point. That was
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: a sweet because West Virginia drove down to scored on that.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Huge So that was the biggest one of the game
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: in terms of just straight single plays that changed it.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: West Virginia's other biggest play with CJ's touchdown run in
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: the first quarter added six percent. He got another one.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: Jeheim White's touchdown added six percent, six point four and
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: six point one. CJ's second touchdown run was added another
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: six percent. So you didn't have any of those massive
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: swings except the turnover. But you just you just kept
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: adding and just kept coming at them. Know.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: CJ. Donaldson scored two more rushing touchdowns. He's now seventh
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: all time in career rushing touchdowns. He's got twenty seven.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: He can get in there. And Jaheim who did not start,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: you know, I thought he ran well fifty four yards
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: on twelve carries with a touchdown had a long thirty five.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: So those two guys combined for a buck thirty nine?
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Is that right? Do we the math? One fifty four,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: one forty nine. The two of them combined one hundred
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: and forty nine yards. Yeah, on thirty one carries, so
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: pretty good. And Garrett Garrett by the time, takeaway sackyards
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: and all that kind of thing. Forty nine yards on
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: eighteen carries with a long run of fifteen.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, forget the sackyards on that because
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: that's I look more. I looked at that statue and
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: I thought, no, I wasn't going to count that because
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: that's not him running.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: I mean this to me, guys, after seeing Garrett have
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: to be so one man show ish against Baylor, I
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: thought this was a more complete effort with your guys,
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: and I thought it was one of those two. If
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: you want to go back, this may be more of
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: a hobby's obvious observations. It wasn't. Again, it wasn't a
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: great statistical game. You won't look at this and be
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: blown away by those numbers. But what it was there
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: were guys making big plays in big moments more than
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: it was just a massive statistical game, right, the Garrett scramble,
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: the Hudson catch, the couple of CJ runs, the Tyron
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: Bradley force fumbles. So I think we can name seven
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: or eight individual really important, impactful plays without just having
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: massively big stats where he went, wow, how about this number? Well,
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: because numbers just didn't wow you, But the game performance
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: I thought was extremely good.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: Well, look at I mean, Garrett's number is only thirteen
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: of twenty one for one eighteen. But what are we
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: talking about. We're talked about those completions. Yeah, we made
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: at key times.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: He completed over sixty percent of his passes. But I think,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: going back to your point, brad so it's kind of cliche.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: You got to make plays. You got to make plays.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: You gotta make well who makes plays playmakers, and they
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: change the complete complexion of a game. When you've got
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: a guy that will make a big time, significant play,
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: that's what determines these games. Like he you know, like
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: he said, So Bradley causes the disruption, which leads to
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: a fumble, and it improves West Virginia's chance of winning
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: the game by almost eleven percent right, So what happened there, Well,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: a guy made a play and then Fagan he was
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: thinking about scooping that baby up. Fortunately he was calling
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: that thing, yeah, a little bit tight.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: But anyway, that was the biggest, single, big swing. But
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: also to the point, so you look at raw numbers
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: here and West Virginia ran for what they get up?
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: What they finished over two hundred yards or more than
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: two hundredards? What were they finished with two hundred right now?
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: They now they had one hundred and twenty of those
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: in the first half, so they were off to a
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: great start. So you look at that versus the passing
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: and you went, okay, West Virginia was really good and
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: dominant on the ground, but you dive into that second
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: layer of numbers with expected points added, you were actually
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: more efficient and effective in that category passing than you
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: were rushing. Right, So that was back those situational big
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: time plays when you converted on some of those late downs,
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: that's what flips that number. So I thought, overall, just
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: really good, did exactly what you had to do, and
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: in a bounce back spot with a lot of noise
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: again circulating around this program, which could have been a
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: difficult situation, you stepped up and got a badly needed
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: win all the way around.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: And another pad on the back for obviously there's much
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: maligned defense and the fact that UCF was just four
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: of eleven on third and fourth down combined, four out
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: of eleven, that is very, very significant. Also this kind
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: of we don't spend much time on this, but West
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Virginia is among the nation's best, their top ten in
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: the country. I think there might have been even five
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: ish and fewest penalties and yesterday two for thirty total,
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: and the one was one that you've never seen before,
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: a punter getting called for unsportsmanlike conduct. So it took
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: a wild one there. But those dudes had eight for
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: fifty eight, including some key off side penalties. And by
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: the way, nice piece of officiating on the past interference
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: that Justin Robinson drew in the first half on the
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: UCF sideline where the two officials that were in front
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: of the play didn't pull the pocket hanky, but instead
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: it was the official who was traveling and when they
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: went and showed the replay, they showed the corner had
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: taken and gotten a hold of the back of his jersey.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: And those are those huge plays man like if they don't,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: if they if they eat that drive's done. Here comes
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Oliver Straw a town to punt it.
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: Okay, to your point, you want a number to back
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: up what you just theorized right there for sure, because
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: you're right, your expected EPA off penalty plays was much
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: greater than your offensive EPA and only slight be below
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: your special team's epay.
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: Explain that in English expected points added. So no, no, no,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: I know that was a lot of penalties factor.
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: And because of those like so instead of instead of
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: being a punting situation, it kept the drive alive for you. You
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: picked up yards. So therefore your expected points on that
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: drive increased because the drive stayed alive versus having to
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: give the ball back or would have gotten zero. So
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: the plays in which penalties were called made it more
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: likely that you were going to score points. So it
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: was really valuable. And it was five times greater than
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: UCF's penalty EPA because you didn't have very many, so
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: they didn't get any benefit it off your mistakes penalty wise.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: And did you go.
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: I think the two penalties were the weird personal foul
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: and they pass interference right with those est so you
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: go a whole game and don't get a whole call, right,
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: that's pretty good, or a procedure yeah, or an off
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: side yeah. I mean, that's that's pretty clean. That's that's
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: that's very clean. Now, there might have been a pass
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: interfering in another pass interference, they didn't call him.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: No, there wasn't very well officiated game. They didn't exactly well.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Done by Steven Barron and his crew. Find Big twelve
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: officials a great job. Of course, you know in basketball
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: early on in the game, oftentimes a coach will try
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: to make an early impression on an official so that
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: he gets calls for the rest of the game. Let's
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: go back early in the game. I don't even know
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: exactly what number possession it was for UCF. They have
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: a spot of the football, yes, yes, and and Neil,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: and Neil exploded onto the field charge the official. Well,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: that might be a bit strong. He he attempted in
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: a hurried manner to communicate with the official from but
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: the official didn't know he was coming from behind him. Huh.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: And he absolutely detonated.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: On him, which I think he was right, by the way,
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: but well.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: It was they moved the ball three yards. They moved
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: the ball three yards for the first down, And so
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: I said to myself at that point that headlines meant
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: he ain't gonna make no more bad spot for the
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: rest of you got spots the rest of the game,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: because that's not good on him, Like when they write
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: that thing up in his review of his game, like, hey,
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: my man, how did you say that they went down
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: three yards before it did?
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: Of course, the spots should never get screwed up. The
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: chipping the ball in the electronic way that they do that,
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: it was perfect.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: They don't do that.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: There's no guessing. No, they never got exactly where it spotted.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Official runs in, puts the ball and uh, coach Brown
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: got a sideline warning.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: But he's doing that. Yeah, he did get well. I
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: thought that when the flag came. Absolutely, I said, he
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: just got himself fitted.
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: From It's the same rule as in basketball when you've
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: ACKed it as an official, you give a lot of
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: rope before you tease somebody up right right, and they
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: know when they've screwed it up, so then you can
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: get away with a lot of yelling there if they've
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: screwed it up.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he won that one. He won that one. There
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: was no question about it. You know what, else, there's
• 38:17

• 39:09
  Speaker 2: No, Tony, we mentioned him and holding him to his
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: average Harvey, but is I think everybody was wowed by him.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: He's really good, I mean really good.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: The way he'd be real surprised if he's not right
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: in NFL.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: The way he would bat like bounce out Yep. Great acceleration, Yep,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: he's he's You see games and you see running back
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: saying okay, okay, can you see a guy like that?
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: And you go, oh, okay, he's different. Yes, and that's why.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: And you guys have already given some love to kickoff
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: man Michael Hayes. He did a really good job. And
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys noticed it, but he
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: was like surgically placing that ball on the O of Mountaineers.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: He dropped three of them on the O, and Harvey
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: for the most part, was neutralized.
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's an area that when we do this season recap,
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: you'll look at that. That's a massive improvement year over
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: year in kickoff coverage.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're among the best in the country.
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: The best in the country from a unit that really
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: got torched last year multiple times and cost you one game,
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: almost cost you a second.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: And Harvey seventeen yards right, one return? Seventeen No?
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: Is that right? Yeah? He took it out like to
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: the nineteen yard I might have started at the two
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: and like I think, got out to the nineteen yard line.
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: Good win in a in a badly needed win situation,
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: Western step up and got one.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, okay, I'm done. It's really good basketball
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: basketball team play coming up here.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: Got a couple games coming up?
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: How many they have coming up?
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday games in Atlantis against a loaded field.
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: It's like a mini NCAA tournament field. You guys will
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: be there.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was looking at gonzagger this morning. That pretty
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: good in a right, in an era where rosters just
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: like rotate constantly. They were turned ten of their twelve players.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Really eighty one percent of their offense on a team
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: that won twenty four games last year, and seventy one
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: percent of their rebounds.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: Now you have to go play them.
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: What's crazy is how many freaking times have we played Gonzaga.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: We've played Gonzaga more than we've played pitt. They are
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: a shadow conference member. I mean, we just keep running
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: into these dudes.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: Number one offensive efficiency team in the country, number two
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: in their own turnover so they don't turn it over
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: a lot. They're number one offensively, they're fifth defensively in
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: three point percentage opponent three point percentage. This a good
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: team that runs and pushes, and you're right, not only
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: do they return a lot of guys all those guys
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: they return are outstanding. I mean they'll bring in their
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: third guy off the bench and on Wednesday and you'll go.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, guy. So the standard the standard in the business.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: If you're a point guard, if you have two assists
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: for every one turnover, it's pretty solid. Okay, three to one,
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: like really good. Four to one's like, oh my gosh,
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: it's gotta got four to one assistant turnover reach if
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: you're five, like why you don't even see it? At six?
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Well seven? Wait? R J Nimhard their point guard right
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: now is running eight to one, and last year he
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: was four point four to one. So they they got
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: a and they got a five star two guard. They
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: got dudes, man, and you got to play on Wednesday afternoon.
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: You know, here's I've guys in double figures. They have big,
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: they have guard, they have all, they have everything. They're
• 42:23

• 42:57
  Speaker 1: West Coast conference. I don't care. I don't care. They
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: won twenty or more games. Everyone has a dip. And
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: if you look at their schedule, like they'll play anywhere
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: in it, they got games coming they got They go

  Speaker 1: them forty plus. So bring it on the line on
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: our game will be I say, between fifteen and sixteen,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: don't you It will be fourteen fifteen, sixteen.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: Yep, right in that range. Yeah, bough that range.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: They might have to move that up.
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: They're good. One quick note here we won't do a
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: full preview, but watch them that you know they're great years,
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: but they're really they're left handed, especially where they shoot from.
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: You look at their their chart red versus blue on
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: like where they're really good lane and rim outstanding. And
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: then the left side forty seven percent from left corner threes,
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: forty one percent, left wing threes, left short baseline fifty
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: percent les. They love the left side, So can we
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: cut the left side of the off?
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: I snickered when Happy said they need to lift the
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: lineup a little bit. I don't know how, because we're
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: playing in a ball room, right, and they serve brunching
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: there like an hour or two before the games are played.
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: If you get some good bacon grease, like I would
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: low in with, go in heavy with the bacon grease
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: on the left side of the floor, right, Maybe some
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: syrup stick some things up on certain areas, they slipping
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: some things on some other areas.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: I just hope, you know, there's a lot of kids
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: that go to this, so you hope that when they're
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: carrying their plate back across mid court to get to
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: their table that's over there for the buffet, there's some
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: of that syrup dripping off. There's just a little drop
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: of eggs that they they don't want their parents to see,
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: so they kind of kick the eggs off, but nobody
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: cleans it.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Are you? Are you so anybody to get hurt.
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: I just want that to affect the shot for Gonzagar.
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: Are you saying that as the teams come out to
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: warm up, they'll have to dribble around the people right
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: down they're kicked down of the buffet line.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: People might not be done yet. There's always that one
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: guy that got up late and his hair, his hair
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: is all messed up and you could see he's run on.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: He's got his short thing. He's just like, I'm just
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: trying to get something before it closes. He's got eggs
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: coming off of his plate, things that he really wouldn't normally,
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: like a lot of o.

  Speaker 1: we had we didn't do the food court, but instead
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: we did something we had never done before and that
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: was a speakeasy event here in morgan in town and
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: quite honestly, couldn't have gone any better. Now. While we
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: were doing the speakeasy. While we were doing the speakeasy,
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: the women's basketball team was an action over at the
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: coliseum and as you know, three Guys actually delightful. Dave
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: has two season tickets that are on the floor, on
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: the floor, and we will put it. We'll go on
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: social media if you follow us, and Dave when he
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: doesn't use the tickets because he's flying all over the
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: world all the time, we'll say, hey, if you want
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: these tickets, they're yours. Well, this past Friday night, Matthew
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: Childers and his daughter won the tickets. And there they are.
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: They are. They were on hand. That's pretty much right.
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: They just basically stepped out of their seat right there.
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: That's how close they are in all seriousness, and they
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: were on hand to watch WVU women win ninety eight.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Twenty eight lined up was the final score. A long
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: night for Lafayette. West Virginia forced more turnovers than points scored.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: BI Lafayette correct correct thirty to twenty eight.
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: Right, yeah, all right, so now let me tell you
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: about the speakeasy. It was terrific. Yeah, it so in
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: all disclosure, none of us knew exactly what it was
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: going to be. Like, Dave took care of everything and
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: he just says, yeah, he goes, okay, just be there Friday.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: We're gonna start it at five. We're gonna go to
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: nine o'clock and we're going to raise money for an
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: incredibly worthwhile cause. So it was awesome. Firstly, thanks everyone
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: for doing the food court with us during the regular
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: portion of the of the season. Parkersburg Brewing Company, the
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Wine Bar, the Brownie House, and Revkevs Barbecue made the
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: food court. We only did it twice last year, and
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: we did it how many times this year? All but two?
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: Four?
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: Two? How may Holme gaves you from seven? We did five?
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: Really fine? We did five, didn't do the last two, Okay,
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: So as far as the speakeasy goes what we did.
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: Hudson Clement, the Mountaineer football player, has a campaign to
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: support the Lillard family and their daughter, Ava May, who
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: is battling cancer, and he is donating dollars. So what
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: we did is we said, okay, we're going to charge
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: people ten dollars to get in, and there was one
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: hundred people that came, and then we're going to match
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: the thousand that they bring in. We'll match another thousand
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: on top of it. And then we had some incredibly
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: generous donations. So on Friday night we made five thousand,
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: over five thousand dollars for the folks there, the family
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: and now with what Hudson has done, it's over ten
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Great, so that is that is special special. Thanks. Now,
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: where we held the event is just that way down
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: near the river from where we from where we're located,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: and it's the brew Pub and they've got this incredibly
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: unique basement space underneath. Didn't know it was there. We
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: didn't know it was there, and I mean you talk
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: about yeah, so that's just one of the looks. So
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: we want to thank them. They were fantastic. Alaverio's provided
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: the food. It was outstanding, just outstanding. And it happens
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: it happens to be Ava May's favorite restaurant, so that's yeah,
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: that's inside of it. And her parents Sarah, Beth and
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: Mike were there. You can still donate, so it was great.
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: So one thing happened, A lot of things happened during
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: the course of it. One thing that happened is hoppy.
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: This was after you left, Brad and I got there
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: and I got called over mine in my own business,
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: got called over to meet someone because I said, we
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: gave a couple of words and he said, I'm sure
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: if you got as are here you listen to the show.
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: So someone said, like this lady has no idea what
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: it is that you guys do, Like no clue. So
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: she said, would you talk to her? So I go like, hey,
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: how you doing? And she said, she goes, what do
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: you do? And I said, what do you mean? What
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: do I do? She goes, podcast? What do you do?
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: I said, well, it's a podcast. We talked about the
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: Mountaineers and preview, we review the games. We preview the game.
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: She goes, I'm from Penn State. I went to school
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: at Penn State. She got a little Penn stady on me,
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: you know, a little bit up in your grill, a
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: little bit of this. Yeah. So I, you know, hospital
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: to her. And then I don't know what happened, but
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: what she launched into this thing, how West Virginia kept
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: Penn State out of the big East. Hey hey. And
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: then someone took a picture right when she was attacking me.
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah. And then I got confused because afterwards,
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: because a little dark and there, I thought it was
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: Kim Maulkey, so like I didn't. So it took me
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: a little bit, but then I figured out and I
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: got some information. So her name is Janelle, and she
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: works here in town, uh for Vandelia Health Systems, and uh,
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: she was. She was great. But that was at the
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: point where I may have said to her when she
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: said West Virginia stopped Penn State from coming into the league.
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: I said, well, you're full of crap. I just wanted
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: to set the thing there, so I was easy. You
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: could see I was on the retreat. And but eventually
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: we settled and she was wonderful, and I did explain
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: to her that it was all pit the kept Penn
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: State out of the set the record straight. Yeah, she
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: was great. She's got two kids to go to school here,
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: she lives here, and uh, lawyer by trade, lawyer by trade.
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: And so she ultimately had a good time at speakeasy,
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: even though she had no idea what the podcast.
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: But she said she was going to listen today because
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: p One Jennings was there and he got her phone
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: and he said, this is how you listen. So she's
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: listening today.
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: So Jennings just handled it and downloaded to subscribe for her.
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: Man if he subscribed, but he said okay, So I said, listen,
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: we'll talk about you on Sunday show. But it turned
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: out to be very nice. But at first, I mean I.
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: Was glad, you know, came. Then thank you to She
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: was great, appreciate you coming. I had, I saw with everybody.
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: It was a fun night. I thought it was tremendous.
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: Well let's show some of these pictures. Yeah, let's take
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: a look. So some are these photos here. Hoppy was
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: as his normal social self. And as we said, Mike
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: and Sarah Beth, the parents of Ava May, were there
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: and they were great and you had a good conversation
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: I had, I had.
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: I talked to him at two different times and sat
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: there and visited with him. Wonderful people. They were very
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: appreciative of the speakeasy. And Ava just had another surgery
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: right about a week or so ago. She's home doing
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: pretty well. Hang on a second, go back, go back,
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: Uh doing doing pretty well.
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: But it's tough. I mean it's tough. It's a serious disease.
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: It started a year ago and she just had a
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: pain in her side and she's a dancer, and everybody thought, well,
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: you just pulled a muscle or something. It turned out
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: to be cancer and it's been a long, hard battle.
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: And there they Mike and Serahbeth run a small business,
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: so it's not easy for them, and maybe one will
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: come up and then the other one will come up,
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: so it's it's very, very hard. And that's that's what
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: this money helps, is to help them with some of
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: these ancillary brands and of these answery expenses that they have.
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: So just fantastic people and they were very appreciative, and
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: I think again it's just what and thanks to Dave,
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: a delightful Dave for pulling it together. Of what people
• 56:50

• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: than I've been in neighborhoods in Morgantown.

  Speaker 1: Yeah, let's just say different countries. Let's just say Ali's

  Speaker 1: dad works internationally. So I like when you go to
• 1:01:04

  Speaker 3: Yeah, he just like, I think he was in Spain
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: more than I've been in Star City this year.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: I think maybe he's a fun guy.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: Wife.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we really have enjoyed the Straws, so we appreciate
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 3: them and all the guys coming by.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: That was a nice one, Texter, And listening to your
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 1: show with the possible expect exception of Brad's merciless slandering
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 1: of Swiss cheese, I've heard nothing but praise for Tutors biscuits,
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: and I like Swiss cheese, but With all that praise,
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: none of you have said what the truly greatest thing
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: this place is. I'd never been to a Tutors before,
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: but a friend was in the hospital. I'm driving the
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: hospital to visit him. Decided to stop in for a
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: quick breakfast from my alien friend. I was going to
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: pick up some food for his buddy, and uh, look,
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: look look over to my right. To my pleasant surprise,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: it was a Tutor's biscuit world. My mouth began to water.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: I decided to what to pick from the menu. I'm
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: telling myself that tony bread, Hoppy say, this place is
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: great and the right the minor biscuit won out. But
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: the best part yet to come. I asked, what kind
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: of coffee do you have? The young lady behind the
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: counter said, regular or large? Not espresso, not late, not
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 1: double caramel mocha with whipped cream sprinkles, and a chocolate
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: hazel cream cookie stir, simply regular or large. How great
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: is that? That alone? Made me a customer for life?
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: Not only if Hoppy can convince Brad to vote YEA
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: for Swiss cheese, signed a Tutor's customer for life.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 3: No, will not vote YEA for Swiss cheese. But I
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: am on board with our Texters recommendation that sometimes cheese
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: is on there, sometimes it's not. Sometimes it is Swiss cheese,
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: sometimes not. Yeah, I would be absolutely in appreciate the compromise.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: Thank you the premiere work with the premire biscuit maker
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: in the world, Tutors Biscuits, seventy locations, most of them
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: here in West Virginia. They are now franchised and if
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: you're interested, if not, then just stop in and get
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: that award winning Mountaineer biscuit that last year beat thirty
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 1: two other biscuit makers biscuits.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: If we're their bread and you order a biscuit and
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: has Swiss cheese on it, you give it to me,
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: and then you order another one which probably won't have
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: Swiss cheese on it.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: Good point, Okay, Mike and Julian Charleston Check in guys.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: Last week was the trifecta for my wife and me.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: I went to the brawl in basketball, went to the
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: football game. That was tough, but Zach Frasier and the
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: Steelers delivered Sunday. Two things about my wife. She is
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: a P two point five listener and she often refers
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: to you guys as eight or ten guys like, Hey,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: we're listening to ten guys on the way to the game.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: Her quote of the year came a week back when
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: she saw Russell Wilson's jersey and said, why does he
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: have a Darth Vader on his jersey? That was only
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: bested by a buddy that told me. On the very
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: same day, my wife wanted to know why Dan Prescott
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: had a batman on his jersey. It's the Walter Payton
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: Man of the Year Award. The funny stuff is true stuff.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: Keep up the great work. Mike and Julie got some
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: pictures of that. There they are at the basketball game,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: at the Steelers game, at the Mountaineer game.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: They were just they were doing it. Yeah, thanks guys, Thank.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: You very much, Julie, Darth Vader and all. Hello, three guys,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 1: been a while since I checked in. Got a good
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: West Virginia connection story for you. I'm in East Columbus,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: Ohia for work. A couple of stores nearby. I figure,
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: in between meetings I'll get some early Christmas shopping. Done it.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: Pop into a shoe place, find a pair. I'm checking out.
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: The light go above me starts to flash. Young lady
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: comes over and asks me for some help. Ask me
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: if I'm a member at that store, to which I apply. No,
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: we don't have these back where I'm from. Oh, where
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: are you from? I'm from Morgantown, of course she is.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: Let's go Mountaineers, she said, and then continues and tells
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: me she used to visit her cousin who went to WVU.
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: She also says she'd come down because he was a
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: former Mountaineer football player and his name was Nana Kiroum.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: My memory serves he was a corner, graduated around seventeen. Still,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: nevertheless always a West Virginia connection. Actually, he played from
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: twenty fourteen through sixteen, played twenty nine games, had himself
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: an interception in a fumble recovery Nana Kiram, Texter, thanks
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: for all the laps and commentaries and insights in the
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: West Virginia sports this year. Looking forward to hoop season
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: with costuous optimism. Let's go Devin from goshen A, Goshen Road, Indiana.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 3: I don't know Goshan Road, yeah.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: Texter, even Oscar Meyer knows to stop at the world
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: Champion Tutor's Biscuit World Signed by Steven Saint Mary's I'll
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: tell you what old Oscar Meyer mobile there at the
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: Tutor's Biscuits. That's hard to back up. I think they
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: probably had again, he probably had to go around. He
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: probably went around. He just didn't like pull that thing
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: and back it in with.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know he got that thing right in there.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: I hope he wouldn't back into anybody like filing insurance claim.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean backed into by Wiener. See, even the
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: Wieners are jealous of Tutors biscuit. They need to run
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: into they need to do a Wiener biscuit that Tutors
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: Oscar my wiener By Speaking of crazy things to drive,
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: I pulled out this morning. I lived near the stadium.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: I pulled out this morning and uh, a little probably
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: should have waited, but I pulled out and a massive
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: the truck that hauls away all of the portageons at
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: the end of the Mountaineer football season.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 3: Was you pulled out in front of it?
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And I looked down.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 3: I said dangerous.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: There's probably about sixty Portajohn's on the back of that thing.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: Off it went told me seasons over at home.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 3: I don't think you want that thing running into you.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, that spillage wouldn't be pretty there. No,
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: they probably cleaned those before they We certainly hope they do.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: But anyway, that is kind of the signal that season's
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: over when they haul away the porta John's on a
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: Sunday morning. Texter, Hey, three guys Empire. I think the
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: overall disappointment is less on the field and more the
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: build up before this season from coaches telling us how
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: good the team was going to be, only to come
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: out and lay a series of eggs in front of
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: the people who live and die with this team. Should
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: expectations have been tempered more? Was it necessary to increase
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: donations and ticket sales? Christom k cor formally from Mullins.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: I don't think that they hyped. It's not like pro wrestling.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: I don't think they hyped it to sell more tickets.
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: To be quite honestly, I think they actually thought, and
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying, there was a lot of
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: optimism that didn't materialize in certain areas, and so now
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: I don't think they do that for tickets. I think
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: they really truly thought, truly thought that.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: The Penn State hype went to another level like that
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: one went to eleven, and then it was disappointment, then
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: the pit loss. I mean that had those two games
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 2: had a gigant that puts you behind the emotional eight
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: ball for the rest of the rest of the season.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: Frankly similar to that Ohio State season opener. This Don
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: Neeland still to this day talks about by the way
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: this christ and Cape Coral says, it was me who said,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: who sent you a text that said here's the four
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: hundred episodes, and I hope there are four hundred more.
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: And it was that time that I said, there will
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: never be an eight hundred, and he said, but wait
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: a second, now there's an episode eight hundred merchandise website.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: I will send my W nine to Comacs for royalties.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: I'll say it again, guaranteed there will now be eight
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: and eight hundredth episode. What's our number now? Five nine five?
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 2: That would be another probably not you.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 1: I just did the maths for coming along warning in
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: game text. Spending the last few hours of BO season
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: with Tony in my ear and the mountaineers up two scores.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: I just saw a bobcat. It's a great day to
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: be a mountaineer.
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: Where's the Bobcat?
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: I don't think he man might be in there somewhere.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he actually said I just saw one.
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: He didn't say look for the bobcat. Yeah. So Deer
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: Deer season starts tomorrow. Yes, bang bang, that was Travis
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 1: and Lincoln County up in the tree.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 2: Probably probably it is land up there.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: Probably owns all of that. Probably has mineral rights underneath it,
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: Hype Brad, unless they sold.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 3: Him, I don't think there's any question.
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 2: Probably has them, maybe the surface rights, but not the
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: mineral ranks.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: Right exactly, Texter, what what I'm not saying it? Three guys,
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: glad to get the wind to Night's scopes. Please finish
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: the story of about Oliver Straw's buddies from down Under.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: So I sat on the broadcast Lesson yesterday. It was terrible.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: I forgot to finish the story. I said. Those guys
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: that I said Oliver's friends are here. About ten of
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: them came from Australia, but they've been way. They waited
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 1: for three years in order to get here. They wanted
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: to wait before they came. They didn't come as a freshman,
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: even though they could have, but they didn't. Why well,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: because the drinking.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: Age in Australia is eighteen, correct, The drinking age here
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: is twenty one. They didn't want to come to the
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 2: United States and not be able to drink beer, and
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: so they waited three years. Now they're all of twenty one,
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: and so now they came so they could drink and
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: they do. When they came over, the guys, it was
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: it was. It was weird because they all had a
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: beer bottle.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 1: On their hand.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 2: They were older, standing over their beer bottle on their hand.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: This is what I told Brady.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: Were great though they were, and then they enjoyed the connection.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: Three Z four.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: Yes, that was a group. I'll just tell you right now.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: We got what fifteen twenty minutes hanging out with them,
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: talking to each one of them. That's a group you'd
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: want to hang out with everybody. That was a really
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: cool group of guys that were over here supporting Alli,
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 3: which makes sense right because they fit exactly what we
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 3: know of Oli just to be a great dude and
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 3: fun and that I'll say it again, that was really
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 3: enjoyable to see those guys. Fun group of guys I know.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 2: And I know I've said this before too. And of
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: course it was for a good cause and also because
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: of the tailgates. Now we've come to know these people
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: in person who come to all of them and you
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: see them go hey, what's going on?
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: What have you been up to and family? Yeah, it's
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: been fun.
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 3: It's been a lot of fun, real quick, Tony, you
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: mentioned that Ali's known a lot of those guys since
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: he was little. Got this picture of them that goes
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: back to let they're twelve years old. Look at a
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: young young Olie Strawther and one of the fellas hanging
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: out when they were just twelve years old. So they've
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 3: been buddies for a long time.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: That's awesome. I'm glad you got that picture because they
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 1: showed that to me as well. So they were at
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: a big event there when they were little guys.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: Was that just I know you mentioned? Was that not
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: the best play? Like I've been to a lot of
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: bars in mortgage On over the years, was that.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: Not the best? I didn't know it was there? That
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 1: is the best place. It had the best weird ass feeling.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: It was like you're inside Harry Potter, like a Harry
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: Potter p Yeah.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: It was cool and perfect for a great job by
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: Dave because it did feel like a speakeasy. At any minute,
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: I felt like somebody should be watching the door, because
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: at any minute someone was coming in saying, what are
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 3: you guys doing in here?
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 1: You're not supposed to be in here. This is a shutdown.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 2: You want to here's a here's a mini West Virginia connection.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 2: That my neighbor, Chuck. There's always a neighbor, Chuck Anga.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 2: When he was in college, he lived in that building
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: in the upper floor. Oh really, Yeah, that was the
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 2: original Gabes. That was the first ever Gabe store, and
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: it was probably something before Gabes.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, yeah, Well that that sign I said,
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: Mononga Halo Feed Company or something. Isn't that one piece? Yeah? Yeah,
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: the monig Yeah what did it say? It says so
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: at one point there's a big wall there the Mononga
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: Halo Supply Company, which looks like that would have been
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: the Mononga Halo Supply comp.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 2: And Michael the general manager, terrific, terrific. They they don't
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: it's not a bar that's open all the time. It's
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 2: his special events. That's why Delightful Dave was able to
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: get us in there.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: They had another event after our event.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: That night that nightazing that was a good event or
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: fun time? Yeah, fun time.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: Well done Texter, great win for the World Champs today.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: putting on the speakeasy. The wife and I had a
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: fantastic time. Definitely had that underground basement house party vibe,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: the food and company top notch. Dave delightful, Mike clementa machine.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: He played my wife's entire Spotify playlist on three SIPs
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: of water. It was also great talking to mister Mattagascar.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Aaron. Aaron was there.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: He's been all over Africa.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah. And the Straw family from down Under. Brad
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: and I talked a little bit about the inconsistency of
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: the team. Will Hoppey indulges with some life lessons and
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: political inside information. What a great night to raise money.
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 1: Fantastic cause ps Tony, you were swarmed at the bar
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: so we didn't get to talk. So apparently that was
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: during that situation and I was under attack. But my
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: question was have coach Greg Hunter and Sean McDonough ever
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: had a conversation and what would it sound like? Signed
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: by the lawman from Fairmount here he is, that is
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 1: the lawman and lovely wife I taught.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: I met them for the first time and talked to them.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 2: They were delightful. She is a respiratory therapist and he
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: is a He works at a facility in Fairmont that
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: that processes aluminum and he fixes all the machinery. Oh,
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: that's his job. They were delightful.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 3: Ye, thank you, guys.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: I always thought he was a cop signed the lawman.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: I always thought it was a cop or something. Okay,
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: scope Senator Dean Proud of our team getting to win
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: on Seniors Night. Two questions punt returns. How do players
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: decide whether to fair catch or not? Are their scenarios
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: where the staff says fair catch, no matter what? So
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: a lot of it is feel by the returner. And yeah,
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: there are certain times where a coach would say park
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: it for various time score situations. Uh, he continues, we
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: could certainly be seven and four heading into our final
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: game if we had played a mid major instead of
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: the two Power five's non conference. Wonder how that would
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: change the narrative around this program. Sign about the three guys,
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: g I doc Here's here's a Hoppey's obvious observation from
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: Periopolis Phil It feels a lot better winning than losing.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: Stole my thunder. Great to get the W on Senior's Day. See,
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are going to Senior's.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 3: Day and I can't do that. That's probably tell you change,
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 3: right me. I go Senior Day now, Yeah, seniors is
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 3: probably right. There's plural senior. I don't like it Senior Day.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 3: I've always referred to it as Senior Day. Really, I'm
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: not coming off that.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: Seniors, seniors, senior, seniors Day. So you identifying as senior Day. Yeah,
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 2: Senior's Day just sounds clunky to me when you say it. Okay,
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 2: So how about just call it the day where players
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: who've probably played their last game run out on the turf.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe a tadlong.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, we'll work on that. What do you guys think?
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: I do love Senior Day? We talked about that. Oh,
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 3: I do enjoy even it's different than it once was.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: I get because of all the turnover, but I do
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 3: like it, and I think that's right. I know that's
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 3: cliche and kind of corny, but I am glad for
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 3: those guys.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: Yes, and there's a.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 3: Long list of them. A bunch of them have been
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 3: on this program before. Our guy Jacquet tell you that

• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: In our coverage, Joe Baccado always listens to what Jacquey
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 2: says to the team when he gets together, and he
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: has he has thought. He has very thoughtful motivational messages
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: to the team every week, comes up with something new
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 2: all the time. We got to get him on the program.

• 1:17:08
  Speaker 1: I was. I felt good. I felt good, felt good
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: last night. So there was an event that was going
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: on after the game, and I wouldn't have gone. I
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: don't think if we would have lost, but I went
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: since we won and it had a great time. It
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: was very enjoyable. But this was not a pre rehearsed thing.
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 1: So I walk, I'm getting ready to leave. I see
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: this dude on the couch and uh couch where at

  Speaker 2: I realize I've been texting only when we lose, so
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 2: I'll change it up and give some credit. While the
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 2: record this year is not what I'd like, getting to
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 2: win at home on Senior's Day was a nice.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: Boost for the teams and fans. The conference record is
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: also better than most of us realize as well. Hopefully
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 1: we can win and Lubbock win. A Bowl eight and
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: five season wouldn't be that bad. Signed by Josh in

  Speaker 3: By the way, Jennings first one in attendance, first one
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 3: in Tony and I weren't even parked yet. We were
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 3: driving and saw him walking in.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 2: I was, I was, I was in early and yeah
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: I got there just before you won.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it was Dave and me and E.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 3: One, as it should be. Yeah, Jennings hasn't missed an event.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 2: Then the folks from Colorado, you met them?
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 3: Oh ever, great, Yeah that was fun.
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this would probably be deep.
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 3: To them for a long time. Then they were headed
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 3: over to the women's basketball game.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this would probably be better suited in graphic form.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: But Josh and Wheeling rights in. I'm doing these on
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: the hot fly. Yeah you are.
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 3: This is very Anchorman ask of you. You're just reading reading.
• 1:19:32
  Speaker 1: I got these ready. I got it early this morning,
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: so I had everything done. Now these are just still
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 1: coming in. But anyway, a big twelve conference wins in
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 1: the last two years twenty three to twenty four. Who
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: has the most wins in twenty three twenty four combined
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: Iowa State yes twelve, whose second might be West Virginia,
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: Kansas tea second, Kansas State.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 3: West Range is going to be third, aren't they.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 1: West Virginia's tied for second with eleven conference wins. Really,
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 1: so Iowa States got twelve, West Virginia's got eleven, Kansas
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: State's got eleven, Texas Tech ten, Kansas, Arizona nine, Arizona
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 1: State BYU eight, TCU eight, Oklahoma State, Colorado, Baylor each
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: was seven, and you tossed six, and then think it
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: just goes UCF five, Houston five.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 3: Since in that of four, keep a roll, go in
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 3: and find a way in Lubbock. Weird things happen in Lubbock.
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 3: Hard place to play. Obviously, they're gonna throw it all
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 3: over hopping Baron Morton right, can can throw it? Their defense?
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 3: Texas Tech defense has struggled as well.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: Can you keep up? Though?
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's one of those. If that's not the
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: highest total of the week on the board, I will
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 3: be stunned. Which would be sixty eight maybe higher. Yeah,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 3: it wouldn't surprise me if that's sixty nine to seventy
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 3: seventy two even right, and then kind of see where
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 3: the bets go from there. But yeah, that's gonna be
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 3: You're gonna have to produce offensively. And then but then listen,
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 3: we just said two of the three best defensive grades
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 3: would come in the last three weeks. It says defense ready,
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 3: that coverage grade has gotten better. What can you do?
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: Take massive, massive, massive, three cubed massive shout out WVU
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: women's cross country team. Yes, yes, that's swippt under the radar.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 1: By the way, it did kind of happen on a
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: football day. West Virginia's women's cross country team finished second
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: in the nation, second to only BYU. Sean Clary, who
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: does an unbelievable job in that program, said it is
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: the biggest accomplishment in the program's history. Think about that,
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 1: second in the nation, second in the nation.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 3: Kaylee McCabe, top finisher for West Virginia.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 1: Of course, absolutely multiple All Americans for the Mountaineers, So
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 1: congratulations to them. What a fantastic accomplishment. And that's the
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: second best team result for a Mountaineer team since the
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: rifle team on a World's Championship.
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 3: Olympian McCabe, Yeah, that's a the best result of any sports.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 3: You're saying, since rifle, Since well done.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 1: Team job, good job done. And as we record here
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: in the morning on Sunday, best of luck today to
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 1: the WVU man's soccer team as they take on the
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: Cavaliers of Virginia five o'clock start over it.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 3: This would be a nice thanks for having us.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 2: Oh nice and coach Coach Stratford expressing his displeasure with
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: how that draw came out and feeling like they have
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: to head over to the mother ship to with a
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 2: chip on their shoulder.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, here's one for you. Hey, this is Professor Vinnie. Recently,
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: my wife and I took the kids to see Santa. Naturally,
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: my son and I were sporting WV gear. This particular
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 1: Santa Santa's from Grafton. Besides being from the North Pole,
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: he also has spent time in Steubenville, Ohia. He asked
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: us if we're from West Virginia, who said yeah. He
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: said he even knew Brook High School, so Sanna is
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: always a West Virginia connection. And then he said we
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: even got our picture together. I don't think ethan ethan.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 1: If you look at the list and you can see
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 1: the new picture that just came in there with Santa.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: That would be just tremendous.
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 2: Probably his land in Tucker County, snow up.
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: There, Andrew and little Rock by the way of Parkersburg.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 1: What I want to know is what in the world
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: did Oliver Straw do? Well, there was an entanglement of
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 1: players that involved linebacker Ben Cutter, and Oliver felt that
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 1: the UCF player was either unnecessarily holding him down or whatever,
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: and so Oliver, I think, simply went over to disengage
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 1: the bodies and it got loose a little bit, and
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: they call the files. It's always the second guy in
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: that was there is Professor Vinnie with Santa. That is
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 1: a hell of us. Sanna good Santa. Well you look
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: at Santa. Is that guy's like five stars? Santa's good? Santa? Right,
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: Professor Vinnie does have the resemblance of an out. I
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: must say, there you go.
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 2: Do you see h shud or Sanders push an official?
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 1: That should get something, that should be that, that should
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: be a little something there, Senator. The rule.
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 2: The rule is officials can push players. Okay, they can
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 2: push players. They're trying to break things up, move things,
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 2: and it was it was a tussle there and I
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 2: don't know if anybody saw at the time that Sanders
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 2: had pushed the official because he pushed him into back.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: Well, they'll look at it now and they see it now.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: I want to see if they got any uh any stuff,
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: because he absolutely deliberately pushed that official on purpose and
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: you could see it in his face. So they should
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 1: hammer him. But will they going into the final Saturday
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: of the season. That should be you should be sitting down,
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 1: should be sitting down. It was, it was a scrum,
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: but still it wasn't push the official. No, he intentionally
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: pushed the officials. They didn't bump into them like they
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 1: didn't like turn all of a sudden they run into them.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 1: He gave them all right. I think we've done absolutely
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 1: and they're still coming in. Thank goodness it's a live show.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: Because these are still coming in, it's kind of like
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like Steam release. And then again it
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: isn't all right. So we're gonna have it on. We're
