- 1:14Speaker 5: When we went over the eight people, I feel like
- 1:16Speaker 5: none of those predictions back would be cold at all?
- 1:18Speaker 2: Would they in the future? No?
- 1:21Speaker 6: No, And predictions like that on this show Bone never, never,
- 1:26Speaker 6: traditionally would be a problem at all. It is time
- 1:30Speaker 6: now to bring in a man who is the creator
- 1:33Speaker 6: of freezing cold takes to two year reference there.
- 1:37Speaker 2: Bone.
- 1:38Speaker 6: It is just known all across the internet for just
- 1:43Speaker 6: exposing people Bone that have bad sports takes, and it
- 1:46Speaker 6: is freaking hilarious.
- 1:47Speaker 2: Sometimes friends sometimes.
- 1:49Speaker 6: And he's got a book out there right now, specifically,
- 1:52Speaker 6: he is putting a book out specifically about college football,
- 1:57Speaker 6: Freezing Cold Takes. It is Freezing Cold Takes College Football
- 2:00Speaker 6: Incomplete History of the game's most inaccurate statements. And he
- 2:05Speaker 6: is Fred Siegel, demand behind Freezing Cold Takes. And he
- 2:08Speaker 6: joins us here on the Mac and Bone Show. Fred,
- 2:11Speaker 6: what's going on?
- 2:11Speaker 4: Man?
- 2:12Speaker 2: How you doing doing great? Thanks guys, Fred.
- 2:16Speaker 6: We even though we often will have some cold takes,
- 2:19Speaker 6: we do enjoy like everybody does, mocking other people's When
- 2:24Speaker 6: how did you come up with the idea that there
- 2:26Speaker 6: is like that, that there would be such a need,
- 2:30Speaker 6: want and desire such a market for bad takes.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I didn't actually know there was going to be such
- 2:37Speaker 1: a desire for it. When I came up with it,
- 2:39Speaker 1: I was just I was seeing journalists and reporters and
- 2:45Speaker 1: personalities posting a lot of their you know, accurate takes
- 2:49Speaker 1: or predictions. Like there was posts on the on Twitter
- 2:52Speaker 1: just like I said yesterday and then post that old
- 2:55Speaker 1: prediction that they made and say it was right. And
- 2:57Speaker 1: I would remember that that same person got like two
- 3:01Speaker 1: ridiculously wrong predictions the week before, and I was like,
- 3:04Speaker 1: what the hell? So I just decided I'll be the
- 3:08Speaker 1: one that posts their bad ones, and I created a
- 3:11Speaker 1: feed and then I guess a couple of people picked
- 3:13Speaker 1: up on it, and then everyone started to really enjoy it.
- 3:16Speaker 1: So that's how I found out.
- 3:19Speaker 5: I mean, it's one of the most popular sports feeds
- 3:22Speaker 5: out there, to be honest. Now, what led to this
- 3:25Speaker 5: college football book? Because this is not your first book, right,
- 3:29Speaker 5: you have an NFL one that you've done before.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I did the NFL book, But I think
- 3:35Speaker 1: the college football, which is my favorite sports, is like
- 3:38Speaker 1: the gold mine of predictions in every which way. I mean,
- 3:42Speaker 1: there's so many teams, there's so many players, there's just
- 3:46Speaker 1: all the fans get super emotional, even all the reporters
- 3:50Speaker 1: overreact to everything. And there's narratives all over the place
- 3:54Speaker 1: that you can use for any data point or any game,
- 3:58Speaker 1: any performance.
- 4:01Speaker 6: So what are hit us with some of your favorites
- 4:04Speaker 6: from the book? You know, it's four hundred pages, baby,
- 4:07Speaker 6: So there's a lot of bad takes. But what are
- 4:10Speaker 6: some of your favorite college football bad takes?
- 4:14Speaker 1: Well, one of them is had. I mean, there's plenty
- 4:18Speaker 1: of them in the book to highlight when Nick Saban
- 4:20Speaker 1: was hired by Alabama, and I think there was a
- 4:24Speaker 1: lot of journalists and personalities who really thought that he
- 4:29Speaker 1: wasn't going to be there for a long time and
- 4:31Speaker 1: he wasn't gonna be able to work the same magic
- 4:33Speaker 1: that he did again. Tell us you like one guy
- 4:36Speaker 1: from Atlanta, his name is Jeff Schultz. He said that
- 4:39Speaker 1: he was writing in the Atlanta Journal Constitution, which is
- 4:43Speaker 1: the newspaper there. He said that that, you know, Nick
- 4:48Speaker 1: Saban wasn't going to be able to create exactly what
- 4:50Speaker 1: he did before. And he said that Alabama's not the
- 4:53Speaker 1: same job as it used to be. He said, Alabama's
- 4:56Speaker 1: now the second best job in the state behind Auburn
- 4:58Speaker 1: and Troy's closing in a number two, and he said
- 5:01Speaker 1: the days of earlier off the FUC are gone. And
- 5:05Speaker 1: the bigger problem is that nobody in Tusca loser realizes
- 5:08Speaker 1: that oh man, no, it was yeah, it was completely wrong.
- 5:15Speaker 1: I mean there's other ones like Kirby Smart. The coaches
- 5:20Speaker 1: are a great topic. Kirby Smart when he was at Georgia,
- 5:24Speaker 1: his first season wasn't particularly great, and then they lost
- 5:28Speaker 1: a lot of bad games. I think we lost to
- 5:30Speaker 1: Vanderbilt's home in Vanderbilt wasn't very good then, So there
- 5:35Speaker 1: was a lot of conjecture about how it was they
- 5:38Speaker 1: were just completely stupid from firing Mark Rick and hiring
- 5:42Speaker 1: Kirby Smart. And there's a lot of stuff like that
- 5:47Speaker 1: is there. There is all shorts of topics. I mean,
- 5:50Speaker 1: I go back to the eighties and nineties. I mean,
- 5:52Speaker 1: when Jimmy Johnson was hired Miami, the journalists at in
- 5:58Speaker 1: Miami writing in the newspaper were not excited about it
- 6:01Speaker 1: at all, and one wrote boo and all capital letters.
- 6:06Speaker 6: So a lot of a lot of it is doubting
- 6:09Speaker 6: the coach hires that end up being all I can't
- 6:12Speaker 6: relate Fred because I didn't like the Dabo higher for Clemson.
- 6:16Speaker 6: For Clemson, Oh yeah, that's in there.
- 6:20Speaker 1: A lot of Davos, I even got. I talked to
- 6:22Speaker 1: Adam Gold the other day. He was, he's right in there.
- 6:25Speaker 5: Oh, he's in he's in the boat. Yeah, he's on next.
- 6:28Speaker 5: What did he what did he do?
- 6:31Speaker 1: He was making fun of uh. I think the name
- 6:33Speaker 1: of the athletic director at the time was Terry Donn Phillips. Yeah, yeah,
- 6:38Speaker 1: he he made fun of his name. I don't remember
- 6:40Speaker 1: what he called some sort of other three name names
- 6:43Speaker 1: and then uh he But this was during the tenure.
- 6:47Speaker 1: I think it was after his second season Davos. They won,
- 6:52Speaker 1: they went six and six maybe I like to say,
- 6:55Speaker 1: and it was two I think it was twenty tends
- 6:58Speaker 1: and they played the bowl game and they got destroyed
- 7:01Speaker 1: in that bowl game.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Yes, and it was.
- 7:02Speaker 1: One of the best ball games. Is he? And he said,
- 7:05Speaker 1: Adam Gold and I talked to him about this on
- 7:07Speaker 1: his show. I think it was yesterday. He said it
- 7:11Speaker 1: was a Minucke car Care Bowl against South Florida and
- 7:16Speaker 1: he said, will Joe Don Baker, Terry fire Yabba, Dabo
- 7:24Speaker 1: Swinty after this game and bringing a real head coat.
- 7:29Speaker 2: Oh god, that's strong. My god, that is strong.
- 7:32Speaker 6: And there's something about a two bone when you put
- 7:34Speaker 6: it in, like when you put it when you type
- 7:37Speaker 6: it out on Twitter, it's like a permanent record of it.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Like on the radio, Fred, we.
- 7:42Speaker 6: Could kind of say it and then like you know
- 7:44Speaker 6: what I mean, like we can kind of weasel out
- 7:46Speaker 6: a little easier, we can lie.
- 7:48Speaker 5: There's all you gotta be accountable when you post it
- 7:51Speaker 5: on Twitter.
- 7:53Speaker 1: That's right. I mean, radio is easier for to go.
- 7:55Speaker 1: I heard that many sometimes. I think, especially the bigger,
- 8:01Speaker 1: the bigger national shows. I think if they have a
- 8:04Speaker 1: social media seasons giddy to post all the takes as
- 8:08Speaker 1: they happen, as the person says it, and so those
- 8:12Speaker 1: are usually a memorialized on social media too.
- 8:15Speaker 5: Fred, if there was a mount rushmore of either take
- 8:19Speaker 5: artists or just individual takes, would Beto Cooks Ron Paulus
- 8:24Speaker 5: Notre Dame nineteen ninety three take beyond there about Ron
- 8:29Speaker 5: Paulis winning multiple heismans on Notre Dame.
- 8:32Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say so. I mean I have a lot.
- 8:34Speaker 1: I have about four or five pages about that case
- 8:37Speaker 1: alone in the book. It's the background behind it and everything.
- 8:42Speaker 1: And the crazy thing back then would be o'cook said
- 8:46Speaker 1: that freshman quarterback Ron Palace for Notre Dame was going
- 8:49Speaker 1: to win two heydriends and as a Notre Dame was
- 8:52Speaker 1: going to win two national champions, says when he was
- 8:54Speaker 1: a quarterback. He didn't just say two, he says at
- 8:56Speaker 1: least two. But back then that was the crazy take.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Like there wasn't many other crazy proclamations being made by anybody,
- 9:10Speaker 1: and especially on national TV. So that but now they're
- 9:13Speaker 1: just thrown all over the place.
- 9:14Speaker 6: Oh yeah, you get to It's so true though, so
- 9:17Speaker 6: many more takes to choose from now.
- 9:20Speaker 5: When I've got into radio, I used to have to
- 9:22Speaker 5: call Beno Cook for guest spots to.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Come on the show.
- 9:25Speaker 5: It was unlike anything I've ever seen before, because I
- 9:29Speaker 5: would call his house, he go leave a message after
- 9:32Speaker 5: the beep beep, and then I would start talking and
- 9:35Speaker 5: he'd be he was there live.
- 9:37Speaker 2: He messed with it to.
- 9:38Speaker 6: Go all right, I'm here live, what do you need?
- 9:40Speaker 6: Like he wasn't even a recording. That too was an original.
- 9:42Speaker 6: He was an original man. We're talking to Fred Siegel,
- 9:45Speaker 6: the man behind Freezing Cold Takes. There's a special Freezing
- 9:49Speaker 6: Cold Takes College Football book that is released today. It's
- 9:54Speaker 6: out and about Freezing Cold Takes College Football and incomplete
- 9:57Speaker 6: history of the game's most inaccurate statement in prediction. And
- 10:00Speaker 6: we found out our buddy Adam Gold is included. All right,
- 10:03Speaker 6: before we let you go, I just like, in is
- 10:06Speaker 6: there do y'all keep track of like the top most
- 10:10Speaker 6: like cold takers? Like I like my guess would be
- 10:13Speaker 6: like if you include like the Twitter account and everything
- 10:16Speaker 6: over the years, my guests would be. Skip Bayless like
- 10:19Speaker 6: leads the nation in freezing colt takes. Do you guys,
- 10:22Speaker 6: do you keep track of like who you have done
- 10:24Speaker 6: the most? No?
- 10:26Speaker 1: I don't actually have a tally of it. Skip Bayless.
- 10:29Speaker 1: I kind of don't use anymore. I think he's so unseerious.
- 10:35Speaker 1: I think that it's not even worth using him.
- 10:39Speaker 2: That's fair.
- 10:40Speaker 1: It's like it's almost like he posts things just so
- 10:43Speaker 1: he could be gun.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's trying. He's trying to make cow heard.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Maybe h Clay Travis, but before he was doing sport.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Those type of guys probably are on the seed the
- 10:57Speaker 1: most and stuff. But I don't really keep track. But it
- 11:02Speaker 1: also depends on how much how many posts or proclamations
- 11:07Speaker 1: to make. They are very findable in the media.
- 11:10Speaker 2: That's true. That's why.
- 11:11Speaker 6: That's why I feel like in little Old Charlotte, I
- 11:12Speaker 6: feel like we could be the league leaders bone But.
- 11:14Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 11:15Speaker 5: I was going to say, Cowhard always has his takes
- 11:17Speaker 5: out there, so that's probably a lot.
- 11:19Speaker 6: Yeah, he's like proud you you said it, Fred, Some
- 11:22Speaker 6: guys are and some places are almost proud of their
- 11:25Speaker 6: host's absurd takes.
- 11:27Speaker 5: You know what I mean.
- 11:29Speaker 6: Maybe we need to get over maybe we need to
- 11:31Speaker 6: get more proud of our absurd takes.
- 11:33Speaker 5: Bony, although Skip does have that one all Timer on
- 11:36Speaker 5: first take when he said that Johnny Menzel was going
- 11:39Speaker 5: to be bigger in Cleveland than Lebron James Ever was
- 11:41Speaker 5: that is true? That's that's on the rushmore too right there?
- 11:45Speaker 1: Yeah, that one. Or cow Hed in twenty fourteen said
- 11:48Speaker 1: Dak Prescott will be a backup in the NFL period
- 11:52Speaker 1: at tight end period.
- 11:56Speaker 6: Oh that's a bad one. That's a bad one. I
- 11:58Speaker 6: love talking about other people's bad ones. We'd ignore ours.
- 12:02Speaker 6: Don't worry about it, all right? He is Fred Siegel
- 12:04Speaker 6: the book everybody is freezing. Call takes college football and
- 12:08Speaker 6: in complete history of the game's most inaccurate statements and predictions.
- 12:12Speaker 6: And Fred, I'm guessing it's it's it's in bookstores, and
- 12:15Speaker 6: it's you know, everywhere you could buy books.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and uh online anywhere you can buy books like
- 12:22Speaker 1: Amazon and Starge and Noble online. So yeah, easy to
- 12:26Speaker 1: be fine, easy.
- 12:27Speaker 6: By all right, y'all check it out. Fred, thanks for
- 12:29Speaker 6: joining us. It was fun.
- 12:30Speaker 2: Man, appreciate it's Fred.

- 12:33Speaker 2: All right. There you go.
- 12:34Speaker 6: That is Fred Siegel giving us a chance bone you
- 12:36Speaker 6: talk about other people's bad.
- 12:38Speaker 5: Sack non college football. Ian O'Connor of uh, the former
- 12:43Speaker 5: Yankee writer of the New York Post. He had an
- 12:45Speaker 5: all timer. Also the day after Joe Tory was hired,
- 12:48Speaker 5: the headline was coolest Joe Tory has no idea what
- 12:52Speaker 5: he's getting himself into. And then they go on and
- 12:55Speaker 5: they win all those world series.
- 12:56Speaker 6: See a lot of our of them are when you
- 12:59Speaker 6: doubt guy that ends up being amazing. Like like me
- 13:02Speaker 6: with Dabo, I'm trying to think of what are my
- 13:06Speaker 6: like ap.
- 13:06Speaker 5: You remember, I remember the day it was me you
- 13:08Speaker 5: and Brentson Buckner were on the air, and I think
- 13:12Speaker 5: we were still in the Afternoon's Dead, and I remember
- 13:15Speaker 5: the news broke and I went over the the over
- 13:19Speaker 5: the talk back and I said, Tommy Bowden's been fired.
- 13:23Speaker 5: They've hired some guy named Debo, And you said, who's Debo?
- 13:27Speaker 5: I remember even Breton said de bou Sweeney. We didn't
- 13:30Speaker 5: even know how to say his name properly. But didn't
- 13:31Speaker 5: like it either. Buck also did not like it. And
- 13:34Speaker 5: then he goes on to win two Natty's.
- 13:35Speaker 6: I'm trying to think of, like, what are our coldest takes,
- 13:38Speaker 6: Like when I.
- 13:39Speaker 5: Wanted I wanted oh Kong mo over Mellow. Yeah, I
- 13:44Speaker 5: wanted Cam at the end. Early on in the process,
- 13:46Speaker 5: I was Taddy Blaine Gabber. But to be fair, I
- 13:49Speaker 5: knew when we got to that point, I didn't want
- 13:51Speaker 5: Cam Luke Kahan Brandon. That's pretty famous.
- 13:54Speaker 7: I thought Moore being a Pro Bowl now a caliber quarterback.
- 13:57Speaker 2: For there was worse.
- 13:58Speaker 6: Yeah, I said, when we had Matt Moore and Clawson
- 14:01Speaker 6: on the team. After we drafted Clawson, I said, we
- 14:04Speaker 6: have two Pro Bowl future Pro bowlers on the roster.
- 14:06Speaker 2: That has to be the worst. Right.
- 14:08Speaker 5: There was the draft party where we drafted Jonathan Stewart.
- 14:13Speaker 5: We were at McCoy smokehouse. We drafted Jonathan Stewart, and
- 14:18Speaker 5: it came over that the Panthers traded back in, and
- 14:21Speaker 5: you two hands shoved me to get to the TV,
- 14:24Speaker 5: and you got so fired up that we traded back
- 14:26Speaker 5: in for Jeff Ote.
- 14:27Speaker 6: Oh my god, I thought that the mall are at
- 14:29Speaker 6: right tackle with the big bruising battle. I thought we
- 14:32Speaker 6: were going to run the ball for two hundred and
- 14:33Speaker 6: fifty yards a game with those two man, didn't.
- 14:36Speaker 7: You predict Matt rules gona win a super Bowl here
- 14:38Speaker 7: in Carolina?
- 14:39Speaker 2: I did?
- 14:39Speaker 6: Yes, we both did. Yeah, we both probably crowd. We've
- 14:43Speaker 6: kind of we haven't advertised that one much fitty. That
- 14:47Speaker 6: is a bad one too.
- 14:48Speaker 5: Oh my god, yeah, me, You and South Palatonio teamed
- 14:52Speaker 5: up on that promo.
- 14:53Speaker 6: Yeah, I gotta tell you, why are we making fun
- 14:54Speaker 6: of other people's takes?
- 14:58Speaker 4: Oh?
- 14:58Speaker 2: These are bad? All right?
- 15:00Speaker 6: Well, we and Trey Wingo. Trey Wingo was saying it too,
- 15:04Speaker 6: wasn't he. Yeah, Yes, he's a Baylor guy and he's
- 15:06Speaker 6: swore by Matt r. So we at least had company
- 15:08Speaker 6: on that one.

- 15:22Speaker 6: Oh? Yeah, that happened. Oh I got I gotta get
- 15:26Speaker 6: Selania in the mix too. Remember when Selania had Devin
- 15:30Speaker 6: Functious as like the next to Leo Jones or something
- 15:33Speaker 6: like that.
- 15:35Speaker 2: And he was already into his career. He was, Yeah,
- 15:38Speaker 2: that was bad.
- 15:39Speaker 5: Oh man, man, why y'all keep listening to us dummies?
- 15:42Speaker 5: When we come back Adam Gold, we'll ask him about
- 15:44Speaker 5: being in this book coming up next that we just promoted,

- 16:19Speaker 6: of people on this show. So we gotta be mad

- 16:26Speaker 6: is out there. Oh my goodness. Seven four or five
- 16:31Speaker 6: seven oh, nine six cent if you want to keep

- 16:42Speaker 5: What the Cowboys have to do the next couple of
- 16:45Speaker 5: weeks to become Super Bowl context.
- 16:47Speaker 6: I'm telling you man, ESPN wants the Cowboys and the

- 17:11Speaker 7: A fan of the local home grown There you go, Ben, there,
- 17:15Speaker 7: you know, underrated team like the Carolina Panthers. My dad
- 17:18Speaker 7: called me yesterday, told me Cowboys one of the Super
- 17:21Speaker 7: Bowl because they signed one.
- 17:22Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, I'm telling you you know what. This
- 17:24Speaker 6: is perfect. Let them get their it's attrition unlike any
- 17:27Speaker 6: other boat. Let them get their hopes up and let
- 17:30Speaker 6: them just be crying at some point in a few months,
- 17:33Speaker 6: usually in their Thanksgiving points all right, by the way,
- 17:35Speaker 6: speaking of teams Bone that get hyped up this time
- 17:38Speaker 6: and year only to be disappointed anc State wolf Pack.
- 17:41Speaker 6: That happens quite a bit on the football side of things.
- 17:45Speaker 6: And we got to talk about this. We got to
- 17:46Speaker 6: talk about Dave Doran getting called out by a student
- 17:49Speaker 6: writer for the student newspaper there in Raleigh, of course,
- 17:53Speaker 6: speaking of Raleigh, that's where Adam Gold does his work.
- 17:56Speaker 6: He has on the radio for decades. I'm uh seven
- 18:01Speaker 6: to fan in raleighty nine point nine. Oh, I had
- 18:03Speaker 6: it right to start. Why did I put a seven
- 18:05Speaker 6: in there? Ninety nine nine to fan? There's another cold
- 18:08Speaker 6: take ninety nine and nine to fan in Raleigh and
- 18:11Speaker 6: most importantly here in Charlotte weeknights on WFNZ at seven o'clock.
- 18:16Speaker 6: He is Adam Gold. Goldie, that was not a smooth intro.
- 18:20Speaker 6: My friend, what is going on?
- 18:22Speaker 1: You?
- 18:23Speaker 3: Who cares?
- 18:24Speaker 1: It?
- 18:25Speaker 5: Got a little scary? Hey, at Plainlander, don't worry. Sometimes
- 18:28Speaker 5: you get to our own station numbers wrong. That's true.
- 18:30Speaker 5: That's at least I've gotten those right today.
- 18:33Speaker 6: Goldie, What did you think of the writer for this
- 18:36Speaker 6: the technician to student newspaper making a run at Dave
- 18:39Speaker 6: Dorn with all the talking points that you've probably heard
- 18:42Speaker 6: over the years from State fans that we've heard over
- 18:45Speaker 6: the years, what do you think about that and like
- 18:49Speaker 6: and where do you feel like you're around, you know,
- 18:51Speaker 6: State fans. You're talking State a bunch in Raleigh. What
- 18:54Speaker 6: do you think the mentality is right now with State fans?
- 18:57Speaker 6: With Dave Dorin.
- 19:00Speaker 3: States, they have scars from everything. So it goes well
- 19:05Speaker 3: before day of Dora. I've been saying I've been saying
- 19:09Speaker 3: this about Darrin for a long time. I think he
- 19:13Speaker 3: has built an upstanding football program. They do it right way.
- 19:18Speaker 3: There's never a whip of anything like any of off
- 19:23Speaker 3: the field issues at State. I mean, the players are
- 19:27Speaker 3: dying my again. I think he does a great job.
- 19:30Speaker 3: The only thing they have not done is good enough.
- 19:34Speaker 3: Every year there's a game or two and you go,
- 19:37Speaker 3: heck you use that uh last year Virginia Tech. Right. Yeah.
- 19:41Speaker 3: But in terms of you know what you want from
- 19:45Speaker 3: your football program, they check almost every box. It's just
- 19:50Speaker 3: that one box. They have had no digit win seasons
- 19:55Speaker 3: under Dave Dorian heck Larry Fandora had doubled wins season
- 20:01Speaker 3: at Carolina, and he doesn't hold a candle to the
- 20:05Speaker 3: way Dave Darrin runs a football program. I mean, I
- 20:10Speaker 3: wish the best for them, man. This schedule is tailor
- 20:14Speaker 3: made for a ten year. Everything is really front loaded.
- 20:20Speaker 1: You know.
- 20:21Speaker 3: That doesn't mean they're gonna win the games in all
- 20:23Speaker 3: the games in the back half, but uh, there's there's
- 20:26Speaker 3: schedule set up in the first five weeks. They've got
- 20:31Speaker 3: three they're three tougher games probably in the first five
- 20:34Speaker 3: weeks if they get off to a good start ten.
- 20:39Speaker 3: But I don't have any problem with anybody bringing receipts
- 20:42Speaker 3: to Dave that you guys haven't done this, haven't done this,
- 20:46Speaker 3: haven't done this, especially when he says when we win ten. Uh,
- 20:51Speaker 3: when the ACC network was on, which I loved, I
- 20:56Speaker 3: have no problem with setting the bar high. Go for it, man.
- 21:01Speaker 3: I hope he gets it.
- 21:02Speaker 6: Yeah, he feels good. He was frisky at ACC media days,
- 21:05Speaker 6: he was man, Adam, how surprised are you that state
- 21:08Speaker 6: got no votes for the top twenty five at all?
- 21:13Speaker 3: I'm not surprised at all. Oh No, I mean I
- 21:17Speaker 3: I mean you would have thought one vocal writer, right, Yeah,
- 21:22Speaker 3: a couple a couple of in state writers. He would
- 21:26Speaker 3: have thought one would have gone. Man, that schedule pretty easy.
- 21:29Speaker 3: They've got lots of the best returning quarterbacks in the country.
- 21:34Speaker 3: The running game would be good. We don't know about
- 21:36Speaker 3: the receivers, but you know, they just haven't been good
- 21:40Speaker 3: enough defensively the last couple of years. And they lost
- 21:43Speaker 3: a bunch of Carrus Pick left, so who knows. But yeah,
- 21:48Speaker 3: the preseason Paul, I may not laugh at it most
- 21:51Speaker 3: of the time, but yeah, I guess I'm maybe I'm
- 21:54Speaker 3: surprised that somebody didn't delete from the vote for twenty fifth.
- 21:59Speaker 2: What did you now?
- 22:00Speaker 6: Clemson also unranked for the first time since twenty eleven
- 22:03Speaker 6: in the AP pole. They were the one just outside
- 22:06Speaker 6: though at twenty six. Essentially, what is your expectation for Clemson?
- 22:11Speaker 6: They're a fascinating team. Like, I think they'll be better
- 22:15Speaker 6: than last year, but how much better? Like how good
- 22:18Speaker 6: do you think do you think they'll be ranked when
- 22:20Speaker 6: the season's over?
- 22:20Speaker 2: Goldie, No, No.
- 22:24Speaker 3: I think it'd be. I don't know how they're gonna
- 22:27Speaker 3: be better with West with Western personnel. I mean, they
- 22:31Speaker 3: put eight guys drafted. My guys drafted right.
- 22:36Speaker 6: Yeah, oh yeah, nine guys drafted in seven wins.
- 22:40Speaker 3: I just don't even understand, Like they don't. They're not
- 22:43Speaker 3: gonna have the same talent level obviously the quarterback, not
- 22:48Speaker 3: the Kake club. Nick was great because he won't h
- 22:52Speaker 3: but he had been there, I believe eleven years, and
- 22:56Speaker 3: I think he got there with Dabo and the like.
- 23:01Speaker 3: I just don't see how they're going to be better.
- 23:03Speaker 3: Their schedule is not super easy. I think there, uh,
- 23:07Speaker 3: there's gonna be some challenges. I think it's a it's
- 23:11Speaker 3: a very good uh question. Who will what number will
- 23:16Speaker 3: be larger Clemson's wins or North Carolina's lost and yeah,
- 23:23Speaker 3: it's a fun one.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Interesting Could that end up time?
- 23:28Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. No. I think I think
- 23:32Speaker 3: I would. I would say I would juice it this way.
- 23:35Speaker 3: I would say Clemson wins plus one and a half
- 23:41Speaker 3: versus North Carolina losses.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Okay, huh, I would be two and a half.
- 23:50Speaker 3: Carolina's looking at ten losses.
- 23:52Speaker 2: You think they're looking at.
- 23:53Speaker 3: Ten Carolina's ten losses?
- 23:56Speaker 2: Yeah, is a schedule that's down.
- 23:59Speaker 5: That was actually my next question for you, and you
- 24:01Speaker 5: just answered it. Is there any path at all? For
- 24:04Speaker 5: the Heels to make something out of the season. Can
- 24:08Speaker 5: they be at least okay or do you think that
- 24:10Speaker 5: this just has a second disaster written all over it.
- 24:15Speaker 3: Well, I think they could be better. They will, They
- 24:17Speaker 3: will be better than they were a year ago. But
- 24:20Speaker 3: the schedule is I don't know how many you know,
- 24:24Speaker 3: factors more difficult. If you flip the home and road
- 24:29Speaker 3: for UNC and just in conference play, if you took
- 24:33Speaker 3: all of their road conference games, put them at home,
- 24:35Speaker 3: and flipped the other way, I think they could threaten
- 24:38Speaker 3: the Bowl game, but they don't. You can't like place
- 24:44Speaker 3: an Huno card in front of the front of the
- 24:47Speaker 3: season and flip them. So I just think that they're
- 24:52Speaker 3: going to struggle all year long and they have a
- 24:56Speaker 3: very difficult start to the season in terms of their schedule. Well,
- 25:00Speaker 3: why they are playing a game at Yukon in November
- 25:04Speaker 3: is mind blowing to me. Said the same thing, by
- 25:08Speaker 3: the way, about Duke last year, and we saw how
- 25:10Speaker 3: that turned out. Although I don't know that Connecticut is
- 25:14Speaker 3: gonna be what they win ten games nine games last year,
- 25:17Speaker 3: I don't know if Yukon's gonna be that good. But
- 25:20Speaker 3: still they're not bad. But it's I don't I don't
- 25:25Speaker 3: end Vitario fans and what they're gonna do with this
- 25:28Speaker 3: year because the speculation about moving on from Bill Belichick's
- 25:32Speaker 3: gonna start. You know, I don't know Labor Day.
- 25:36Speaker 6: Do you, Goldie? Do you believe that NC State or
- 25:41Speaker 6: NC I'm went back to n C State. Now I'm
- 25:43Speaker 6: gonna get caught? What back back again?
- 25:44Speaker 2: O get caught?
- 25:45Speaker 1: Well?
- 25:45Speaker 6: Back man, North Carolina? Isn't that I'm trying to say?
- 25:48Speaker 6: Do you think North Carolina fans, Goldie, should be basically
- 25:53Speaker 6: rooting for it to go really bad so that they
- 25:56Speaker 6: get rid of Belichick? Like, I know some fans don't
- 26:00Speaker 6: like that school of thought, but like that feels like
- 26:02Speaker 6: their best chance to succeed at some point in the
- 26:06Speaker 6: next few years.
- 26:08Speaker 3: I've heard that. I've heard that take that the best
- 26:11Speaker 3: case scenario for UNCA is a disaster season. Here's the thing.
- 26:17Speaker 3: What level of commitment does their Like I understand what
- 26:24Speaker 3: the phrase soak cost means, because they've got to pay
- 26:30Speaker 3: Belichick and staff for another year. Do they have enough
- 26:38Speaker 3: backing financially to pay Belichick and staff Let's just say
- 26:45Speaker 3: twenty dollars to walk away then go out and hire
- 26:50Speaker 3: another coaching staff and back them financially. Like maybe it
- 26:56Speaker 3: would be best to send Bill off and then then
- 27:00Speaker 3: bite the bullet on a on a what would have
- 27:04Speaker 3: been year three for Bill with another coaching staff with
- 27:08Speaker 3: no money to uh, to go out and get a
- 27:11Speaker 3: credible roster and essentially tear it to the studs and
- 27:16Speaker 3: start over. I don't know. I personally, I think that
- 27:23Speaker 3: there's no good solution here.
- 27:25Speaker 5: Uh.
- 27:25Speaker 3: The worst decision they could have possibly made ultimately will
- 27:30Speaker 3: end up setting the program back I don't know, anywhere
- 27:33Speaker 3: from three to five years. The Belichick gamble was so
- 27:38Speaker 3: great that if if it didn't work, it was going
- 27:43Speaker 3: to absolutely cost a lot of people their jobs.
- 27:47Speaker 4: UH.
- 27:47Speaker 3: And now it wasn't Lee Roberts idea, but it probably
- 27:51Speaker 3: will cost him his job at some point. Bubba cunning
- 27:55Speaker 3: had had nothing to do with this. This was This
- 27:57Speaker 3: was all John Fryar, the former head of the Board
- 28:00Speaker 3: of Trustees. I know. I mean, I'd like to say
- 28:04Speaker 3: I know that for a fact, but I have had
- 28:07Speaker 3: it told to me by several people who would know
- 28:11Speaker 3: that this was all John Pryor h And he got
- 28:14Speaker 3: financial backing from whomever he needed to and Unfortunately, it's
- 28:19Speaker 3: going to be a football disaster at UNC. They better
- 28:22Speaker 3: have basketball on on solid ground. I think they will.
- 28:27Speaker 3: I think Michael Malone will be fine. Yeah, but my gosh,
- 28:31Speaker 3: football is a disaster.
- 28:32Speaker 5: They have to try to get out of this without
- 28:34Speaker 5: a buyout, right, they have to have him retire or
- 28:37Speaker 5: quit or you wonder is there is there a language
- 28:40Speaker 5: in there that if he gets an infraction or he
- 28:42Speaker 5: gets in trouble and they can fire with cause for
- 28:45Speaker 5: NCAA violation, can they maybe not have to pay the
- 28:49Speaker 5: full buyot because I think what Adams saying, there full
- 28:51Speaker 5: buyout for him now.
- 28:53Speaker 2: He would be ten million.
- 28:54Speaker 6: I think Goldie after the year, but then his staff
- 28:57Speaker 6: is it you're saying the staff then would would Yeah,
- 29:00Speaker 6: it is a fascinating situation.
- 29:02Speaker 3: You gonna have to pay Michael Lombody too, and they're
- 29:05Speaker 3: gonna have to pay Bobby Portray. There's a lot of
- 29:08Speaker 3: people that are gonna get paid.
- 29:09Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I get I get what you're saying. Goldie.
- 29:13Speaker 6: You last week, Panther fans were so happy with you.
- 29:17Speaker 2: You had a run the ten win board up. Yeah,
- 29:19Speaker 2: you're on the ten war ten win board.
- 29:20Speaker 6: You had a bounce in your step about panther football
- 29:24Speaker 6: and then they went out and played like that in
- 29:25Speaker 6: the preseason. Do you care at all? Does that like,
- 29:28Speaker 6: does that shake your confidence in this team? Or do
- 29:31Speaker 6: you not care?
- 29:33Speaker 1: Man?
- 29:34Speaker 3: No, I care. I was a terrible performance. I was
- 29:38Speaker 3: actually more put off by the defense than the offense.
- 29:42Speaker 3: Didn't you didn't force a punt?
- 29:45Speaker 1: How do you?
- 29:45Speaker 3: How do you play a preseason game and not force
- 29:48Speaker 3: a punt? I just couldn't believe that.
- 29:50Speaker 2: That's not ideal.
- 29:51Speaker 3: I just went there was a hot knfe through a
- 29:54Speaker 3: butter man. But yeah, the offensive, the middle of the
- 29:58Speaker 3: offensive line was atrocious. They couldn't do anything. Uh they
- 30:01Speaker 3: did pick up a first down, but of course somebody
- 30:04Speaker 3: was illegal downfield. Uh So I mean, I don't, I don't.
- 30:07Speaker 3: I mean I think that we can point to that.
- 30:10Speaker 3: I think Bryce did a couple of good things, but
- 30:13Speaker 3: obviously three three and outs and uh, that was terrible.
- 30:16Speaker 3: But the defense was atrocious. Other than Jalen Phillips made
- 30:20Speaker 3: a couple of nice plays and Prince Levia Ma Miellen
- 30:24Speaker 3: made a couple of nice plays. Other than that, not
- 30:26Speaker 3: a lot good big plays, broken coverages, no good. But
- 30:32Speaker 3: move on. It's just a preseason game. I'm not losing
- 30:36Speaker 3: any sleep over it at all. I think they'll be
- 30:39Speaker 3: fun league.
- 30:39Speaker 2: You still in the ten win wagon with us?
- 30:41Speaker 3: Goali, I mean I think it's I think some wins
- 30:44Speaker 3: is out there. I don't want to think by to
- 30:46Speaker 3: say I'm predicting that they will win ten.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Shoot, okay, we had you on the board.
- 30:51Speaker 6: We had you on our board over here at ten,
- 30:53Speaker 6: bones out, crossing it off bone.
- 30:58Speaker 2: Now put a question mark.
- 31:00Speaker 5: He put a question mark next to you.
- 31:03Speaker 3: I mean there's a range. Think there's a range for them.
- 31:07Speaker 3: So uh and ten's within range.
- 31:11Speaker 6: You're now on the ten win express maybe possibly ten.
- 31:17Speaker 3: Oh man, that is a possibility.
- 31:20Speaker 2: I'm not all right.
- 31:21Speaker 5: Well, you know what, you're not off it, but we'll
- 31:23Speaker 5: check back in next week. Yeah, we'll just hold you
- 31:26Speaker 5: right there. I'll just hold you there. We'll check back

- 32:04Speaker 5: in this?

- 32:41Speaker 5: theough no more. He's a first round All American tackle.
- 32:46Speaker 5: That's a huge deal for arch Manning and of course

- 32:50Speaker 5: we'll keep an eye on j and what was their
- 32:52Speaker 5: weakness last year offensive line? So yeah, no, maybe nothing,
- 32:57Speaker 5: but that's certainly something to monitor there. Yeah, so that
- 32:59Speaker 5: wouldn't be id at all. Tar heel Swaft says.

- 34:25Speaker 7: Marte has been put on the restricted list after he
- 34:29Speaker 7: failed to show up for their game last night against
- 34:32Speaker 7: the Boston Red Sox. Their manager was pretty emotional talking
- 34:36Speaker 7: about it after the game, was trying to get some answers,
- 34:39Speaker 7: some clarity of where he may or may not have been.
- 34:43Speaker 7: Remember last year he went went missing or went a
- 34:46Speaker 7: wall after his house was broken into and he had
- 34:49Speaker 7: to go deal with that. We don't know the circumstances yet,
- 34:51Speaker 7: but back to back years, could tell Marte's been gone
- 34:55Speaker 7: missing for the Diamondbacks in the middle of the years
- 34:57Speaker 7: they're trying to stake their claim as a wild our
- 35:00Speaker 7: team in the National League.
- 35:01Speaker 5: Yeah, and what's interesting about this one. They're on the road,
- 35:03Speaker 5: they're in Boston, he's with the team and then they
- 35:06Speaker 5: couldn't find him yesterday. He was not there like he
- 35:08Speaker 5: was with them traveling. Then he was not there. So
- 35:11Speaker 5: we knew about the You mentioned the house stuff last year.
- 35:14Speaker 5: We don't know about this one this year. But this
- 35:16Speaker 5: is a heck of a player that seems to have
- 35:19Speaker 5: a lot going on in his life. So hopefully he's
- 35:21Speaker 5: all right there. Backer that's a story there, that is man.
- 35:24Speaker 5: I hope everything's okay. So we have an update on
- 35:26Speaker 5: the earlier saga in case you're just joining us. Granny,
- 35:30Speaker 5: pat legendary caller, cannot leave the hospital until she has
- 35:34Speaker 5: a bowel movement, so she was updating us along the way.
- 35:37Speaker 5: We were trying to find ways to get this out
- 35:41Speaker 5: so Granny can go home. Mac, what's the latest on Granny?
- 35:44Speaker 6: The latest from Granny is I am trying, but it
- 35:47Speaker 6: hasn't happened yet.
- 35:48Speaker 2: All right.
- 35:49Speaker 5: We were taking bit there before I had seven fourteen
- 35:52Speaker 5: on the movement and Granny.
- 35:55Speaker 6: I'd love the fact that Granny, You're right, she is
- 35:57Speaker 6: not the slightest bit embarrassed, so she likes this come
- 36:00Speaker 6: a storyline on the Mac and Bone Show.
- 36:02Speaker 2: We do this because we care Granny like we want you.
- 36:04Speaker 6: How that hospital sounds like you're feeling so much better
- 36:07Speaker 6: and we want you out of there. So everybody was
- 36:10Speaker 6: sending in all their ideas to make the magic happen,
- 36:15Speaker 6: but so far it is not happening.
- 36:16Speaker 2: She do thrower backed up in seventy seven?
- 36:18Speaker 5: Could she do a round table? Oh yeah, here's a
- 36:21Speaker 5: traffic update.
- 36:22Speaker 2: What you want to do? A round table from the toilet?
- 36:24Speaker 6: Yeh?
- 36:24Speaker 5: Caps, Oh my gosh, might be better off than some.
- 36:29Speaker 5: When we come back on the Mac and Bone Show,
- 36:32Speaker 5: we get back into college football. In eighteen of the
- 36:34Speaker 5: last nineteen years, at least one top ten team and
- 36:37Speaker 5: the preseason eight people has ended up unranked by the
- 36:40Speaker 5: end of the year. We discuss the potential flops in
- 36:45Speaker 5: the poll this year. Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
- 37:15Speaker 8: They gotta play their way in, they gotta earn it.
- 37:16Speaker 8: But I will be shocked, absolutely shocked if Clemson is
- 37:20Speaker 8: not better this year and playing I'm gonna go on
- 37:23Speaker 8: live here playing Miami in the ACC Championship. You know,
- 37:28Speaker 8: I think they have to obviously find a quarterback like
- 37:31Speaker 8: a lot of the other teams that we're talking about here,
- 37:34Speaker 8: but I like the higher as Chad Morris as offensive coordinator,
- 37:37Speaker 8: second year under Tom Allen defensive coordinator. I think they're
- 37:40Speaker 8: on the upwards trajectory. I think they get Miami at
- 37:43Speaker 8: home this year, which is a big deal. So you know,
- 37:46Speaker 8: it's it's tricky, but they's gotta be better.
- 37:50Speaker 5: There you go.
- 37:51Speaker 6: Goldie dismissed me when I said, I think Clemson will
- 37:54Speaker 6: be a better team this year, even with less talent.
- 37:58Speaker 2: Sometimes it works out that way.
- 37:59Speaker 6: Sometimes that I'm not sure the talent Bone was motivated
- 38:03Speaker 6: necessarily upfront.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Defensively last year.
- 38:06Speaker 5: They played, They played like they knew that they were
- 38:08Speaker 5: all big evaluated for the draft, rather than playing for
- 38:12Speaker 5: the name of Clemson and the Tigers.
- 38:14Speaker 6: Yeah, they probably had big they got paid. Also, they're
- 38:16Speaker 6: probably looking forward to bigger paid a So just it
- 38:19Speaker 6: didn't feel like a great mix last year. I do
- 38:22Speaker 6: wonder if Dabo kind of playing the we got a
- 38:25Speaker 6: bunch of nobody's and nobody's respecting us. Everybody thinks that
- 38:29Speaker 6: everybody's writing a song. I wonder if that can get
- 38:32Speaker 6: a better result this year. Heather Dnich ESPN seems to
- 38:36Speaker 6: think so. With that said, Bone, the AP voters did
- 38:39Speaker 6: not put them in the top twenty five first time
- 38:41Speaker 6: in fifteen years.
- 38:43Speaker 2: I want to. By the way, Granny has texted back.
- 38:45Speaker 2: See this is.
- 38:46Speaker 6: The We had a text from from a seven oh
- 38:50Speaker 6: four number that said, you guys have no shame. How
- 38:53Speaker 6: are you talking about granted poor Granny's situational.
- 38:56Speaker 2: Ater for help.
- 38:57Speaker 6: Granny has asked for assistance, and now Granny has cantinuing
- 39:00Speaker 6: bone to go back and forth with us. Granny says
- 39:03Speaker 6: that all these methods that people are trying to get
- 39:07Speaker 6: to help her have again, it's kind of funny we're
- 39:11Speaker 6: talking about this, have the bowel movement in order to
- 39:13Speaker 6: be released from the hospital, she says, it has to
- 39:16Speaker 6: happen naturally. They are telling her that she cannot use
- 39:20Speaker 6: all these different methods. You mean, somebody can't just bring
- 39:23Speaker 6: her like a big old burrito like panther Bo five
- 39:26Speaker 6: layer burrito from Taco Bell like panther Bo suggested.
- 39:29Speaker 5: We can't get a sis and say Granny go to town.
- 39:33Speaker 6: I guess the doctors are not allowing that. All right, well,
- 39:36Speaker 6: good luck Granny. I personally can't relate to Granny's plight
- 39:40Speaker 6: because I have never had this problem in my life.
- 39:44Speaker 6: I have the other problem, the opposite type of problem.
- 39:48Speaker 6: It flows too freely for me. Can we move on
- 39:51Speaker 6: to here?
- 39:52Speaker 3: Oh?
- 39:52Speaker 5: I'm sorry?
- 39:53Speaker 6: Oh shoot, okay, I forgot for a moment where an
- 39:56Speaker 6: actual sports.
- 39:56Speaker 2: Show speaking a backed up. This segment's backed up.
- 40:01Speaker 5: I thought we were just kind of like a listener
- 40:03Speaker 5: life advice show.
- 40:04Speaker 6: The first second ago. All right, anyway, okay, so let's
- 40:07Speaker 6: do this Bone. This stat amazes me. Eighteen of the
- 40:12Speaker 6: last nineteen years, at least one of the top ten
- 40:15Speaker 6: teams in the AP preseason poll has been outside of
- 40:19Speaker 6: the top twenty five entirely by the end of the season.
- 40:22Speaker 6: Last year was an extreme. Last year, Penn State and
- 40:26Speaker 6: Clemson were both in the top four and both ended
- 40:29Speaker 6: up unranked. LSU was nine. They ended up unranked, So
- 40:33Speaker 6: it was three teams last year. Here, let's read off
- 40:37Speaker 6: the top ten for everybody, and you guys could play
- 40:39Speaker 6: the home game with us. Feel free to text in
- 40:42Speaker 6: the stats show at least one of these schools bone
- 40:45Speaker 6: will be out of the top twenty five completely. Who
- 40:48Speaker 6: do we think the flop's gonna be? Ohio State one,
- 40:51Speaker 6: Oregon two, Georgia three, Notre Dame four, Texas five, Indiana six,
- 40:56Speaker 6: Miami seven A and m eight nine.
- 41:01Speaker 2: Oklahoma ten.
- 41:02Speaker 6: Hmmm, I think you and I think the first candidate
- 41:07Speaker 6: is the same team.
- 41:08Speaker 5: Is it just me or does it feel like a
- 41:11Speaker 5: really strong top ten. I know we've said there's about
- 41:15Speaker 5: seven contenders and then there might be a little bit
- 41:18Speaker 5: of a drop off, but I feel like there's not
- 41:20Speaker 5: a lot of obvious teams to take out of there,
- 41:24Speaker 5: except for maybe I'm not trying to have the same
- 41:26Speaker 5: answer as the A and M. Feels very I don't
- 41:28Speaker 5: know who else is because we're talking about going all
- 41:31Speaker 5: the way out right. We're not talking about just dropping
- 41:33Speaker 5: out of the top ten. You gotta get out. We're
- 41:35Speaker 5: talking about we're talking about you all the way dropping
- 41:40Speaker 5: to the to the outside the pole here. I think
- 41:44Speaker 5: A and M is the obvious answer, because I don't
- 41:46Speaker 5: see pass there or the other nine are gonna drop
- 41:50Speaker 5: all the way out of this thing.
- 41:51Speaker 2: A and M.
- 41:51Speaker 6: Last year, Bone played one game as an underdog. Ironically,
- 41:55Speaker 6: they won it against Notre Dame, but they were saying
- 41:57Speaker 6: it the last second passed. They were favored in every
- 42:00Speaker 6: other game during the regular season. I feel like Bone
- 42:04Speaker 6: South Carolina's first half against them, the loss to Texas
- 42:08Speaker 6: and then the loss to Miami in the in the playoff.
- 42:11Speaker 6: I feel like they got a little exposed that A
- 42:13Speaker 6: and M was a product of their schedule last year,
- 42:16Speaker 6: and they don't get that type of schedule this year
- 42:19Speaker 6: at all. They're at LSU at Alabama this year at Oklahoma,
- 42:24Speaker 6: they've got Texas, They've got there at South Carolina. I
- 42:29Speaker 6: just a Tennessee at home. I just don't think it's
- 42:31Speaker 6: gonna go the way it went last year. Plus they
- 42:34Speaker 6: lost ten guys to the NFL. But I guess it's
- 42:37Speaker 6: kind of boring because you and I are both saying
- 42:38Speaker 6: the same team. Who else? I mean, we've got people
- 42:42Speaker 6: saying Indiana on the text line, we have multiple Well,
- 42:45Speaker 6: there's complainer in chief Miami. Two K tone says Miami.
- 42:50Speaker 6: A lot of new pieces in mensa was a late ad,
- 42:52Speaker 6: A late ad. He was added in January. It wasn't
- 42:54Speaker 6: added that way. He was there the whole spring. He
- 42:56Speaker 6: wasn't added that way. It was just it was late
- 42:58Speaker 6: in the portal. He was not late in the offseat.
- 43:01Speaker 4: Dude.
- 43:02Speaker 6: A lot of people are saying Miami, this is I
- 43:05Speaker 6: think they're in for a root awakening. This is interesting.
- 43:07Speaker 6: I am personally expecting now we just went over all
- 43:10Speaker 6: my bad predictions earlier on in the hour Bone, but
- 43:13Speaker 6: I am personally expecting Crystaball to have them as a
- 43:16Speaker 6: factor on the regular. First of all, in the ACC
- 43:19Speaker 6: you only play so many tough games. Secondly, the talent
- 43:24Speaker 6: level that he is getting in there. And I know
- 43:26Speaker 6: the concerns are they lost Bina mesidor they lost Malikoah
- 43:29Speaker 6: on the offensive line, But I just I think they've
- 43:33Speaker 6: got enough through the portal or remaining I mean, on
- 43:37Speaker 6: both of those lines to be good enough. And I
- 43:39Speaker 6: just think the skill talent on offense and the back
- 43:43Speaker 6: seven talent on defense I think is special. Now to mention,
- 43:46Speaker 6: don't you think their quarterback's better?
- 43:47Speaker 5: Bone?
- 43:48Speaker 2: Yeah? No, is he is better?
- 43:50Speaker 1: No?
- 43:50Speaker 5: I think Miami in Miami. Also, by the way, Mack,
- 43:54Speaker 5: that monkey's off the shoulder. Now for Mario Cristibal, the
- 43:57Speaker 5: questions about his coaching, is he the guy? Is it
- 44:00Speaker 5: the same as always as Miami back. They can now
- 44:03Speaker 5: play back with the confidence that Miami wants to play
- 44:06Speaker 5: with because they now know that they're good again. For
- 44:09Speaker 5: a while there they were trying to get good again.
- 44:11Speaker 5: Miami now has a ride to the scene. So now
- 44:14Speaker 5: I expect them to have a level of dominance that
- 44:16Speaker 5: they haven't really had in a while.
- 44:18Speaker 6: They do need to avoid in the regular season losing
- 44:20Speaker 6: a game or two that they shouldn't, you know what
- 44:22Speaker 6: I mean.
- 44:23Speaker 5: That's been a very Miami thing.
- 44:24Speaker 6: But the role they got on in that playoff man
- 44:27Speaker 6: spoke volumes to me.
- 44:28Speaker 2: We're getting some Old Miss on here.
- 44:30Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, the problem is, I can see it,
- 44:33Speaker 6: but they have two studs in that backfield.
- 44:35Speaker 5: The problem is, I look at Chamblis and Lacy Lacey
- 44:39Speaker 5: maybe a better player than Shambles overall, by the way.
- 44:41Speaker 2: That might be the best quarterback and best running back
- 44:43Speaker 2: in the.
- 44:44Speaker 5: I want to say Old Miss because of coaching. Shade's
- 44:46Speaker 5: schedule is not easy. It's it's Louisville, LSU, and Florida
- 44:50Speaker 5: in the first four, three to the first four. It's
- 44:52Speaker 5: Texas in there, it's Georgia, it's Oklahoma. It's a tough schedule.
- 44:56Speaker 5: But I don't think Old Miss Mack will be bad.
- 44:58Speaker 5: And we're talking about falling out out of the top
- 45:00Speaker 5: twenty teh you got to go all the way out.
- 45:02Speaker 5: If All Miss ended up seventeenth, I don't think he
- 45:08Speaker 5: is falling out of the top twenty.
- 45:09Speaker 6: I do wonder about Pete Golding though, right, Like we
- 45:12Speaker 6: don't know about him as a head coach, Like I don't.
- 45:14Speaker 5: I know that he did a good job, think they're
- 45:16Speaker 5: a national title contender, but they're not falling out of
- 45:18Speaker 5: the top ten.
- 45:18Speaker 6: I know he did a good job last year Bone
- 45:20Speaker 6: when when Leno left him, But I almost feel like
- 45:22Speaker 6: he used that to rally the troops, almost like they
- 45:25Speaker 6: played with a chip on their shoulder. Now he's got
- 45:27Speaker 6: to do it for a full season. Do we know
- 45:29Speaker 6: this guy's ahead coach? He's a guy that was perfectly
- 45:31Speaker 6: content being a coordinator and now he is the head coach.
- 45:34Speaker 6: So I do think there are some questions there about
- 45:36Speaker 6: Old Miss. Why so many Indiana We're by the way,
- 45:39Speaker 6: if you just join us talking about teams that could
- 45:41Speaker 6: drop out of the top ten. Eighteen the last nineteen years,
- 45:45Speaker 6: a team in the preseason AP top ten has finished
- 45:48Speaker 6: on ranked. So we're trying to figure out who the
- 45:50Speaker 6: top ten team is. It'll come all the way out.
- 45:52Speaker 6: Why so many Hoosiers ones? Like I think the Hoosiers
- 45:56Speaker 6: can win it. I wouldn't be shocked if they repeated.
- 45:58Speaker 6: I think they're literally Bone one of the three or
- 46:01Speaker 6: four best teams in the count Should we warned our
- 46:03Speaker 6: wesson yet about Indiana.
- 46:04Speaker 2: I've been there before.
- 46:07Speaker 5: I've tried to will it in existence that they're gonna
- 46:10Speaker 5: end up becoming Indiana again. At some point we just
- 46:13Speaker 5: have to tip our hats and say that they are
- 46:16Speaker 5: a great program.
- 46:18Speaker 2: They are the national champs, and I'm no longer.
- 46:20Speaker 5: Doubting sig and that dude is going to have them
- 46:22Speaker 5: as a great football team. Yeah, I feel like people
- 46:25Speaker 5: still have every year. Every year.
- 46:27Speaker 6: I'm not gonna doubt this man, complainer in chiefs back again.
- 46:30Speaker 2: Bone.
- 46:32Speaker 5: I'm sorry, I'm sorry. He must be high as a kite.
- 46:37Speaker 5: He's high on heel's optimism. He says, Miami has lost
- 46:40Speaker 5: four or five starting O lineman. It's gonna take them
- 46:42Speaker 5: some time to jail. That's definitely one of the questions.
- 46:44Speaker 5: But I'm telling you that can't well.
- 46:46Speaker 6: Kid is a five stars, one of the best offensive
- 46:48Speaker 6: linemen in their coach in a long time, and their
- 46:51Speaker 6: coaches specialty is coaching O line man.
- 46:54Speaker 2: I don't know if I doubt that unit
