  Speaker 1: Ragway alongside Cameron Parker, the producer of the program. You know,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard you say anything about it. You're a
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: real modest, unassuming guy anyway, so I'm not surprised by
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: this at all.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: But your favorite.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: NBA team has won fifteen consecutive games. The Oklahoma City Thunder,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: in case nobody had noticed, is thirty and five. By
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: the way, he's toill not the best record in the NBA.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: That belongs to Cleveland Cavaliers, who are thirty one and four.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: And guess which two teams play this week Wednesday night ESPN.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Let's get it, baby, you're all fired up about that?
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I am, yeah, yeah, last night's gaming against Boston, which
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: I was watching a little bit at Moody Center yesterday.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: I need okay Seeing in Texas basketball to get together
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: in like maybe not schedule their games at the same time,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: because it keeps happening. It's all right, it's all right,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: but that's his game, so much fun. Craig okay See
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: going down into halftime down by ten, Chris Stops is
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: playing incredible, and then Shaye takes over in the fourth
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: quarter lou Dort with some big shots. Boston only scored
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: twenty seven points in the second half on twenty percent shooting,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: and it's the longest win streak in OKCE basketball history,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: and it might be one of the most funnest teams
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: in OKACE basketball history. And they've had some great teams
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: obviously with Russ, Katie and Harden, but they have what
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: a seven game lead over Houston for the one seed
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: in the Western Conference, and had had now I've had
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I think four straight comeback to the second half, the
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: same thing against the New York Knicks, who went into
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that game on a ten game win streak this past weekend,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: beat them, beat Boston yesterday, and now face the other
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: hottest team in the league Cleveland Wednesday night. A real
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: tough schedule, but a lot of fun basketball. And yesterday
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: felt like an NBA playoff game. And it's frustrating that game.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I know that there's football going on, but that game
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: should have been on like Pride Time TV, not a
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: not an NBA TV.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Come on, NBA, what are we doing here? Bud?
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: I love that thunder up.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: What was the team they beat on New Year's Eve?
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: On New Year's Eve, they were way down and then
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: they had like a thirty four to eight run and
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: overhauled them and beat them.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Was it Houston?
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: It was not Houston. Let me pull it up here. Okay,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: there was a team they were way down.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: To It's I think it's it's been four straight games
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: where they've been down going in the halftime and then
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: and came back Clippers. I believe it was the Clippers
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: or t Wolves, Tea Wolves, That's who it was. It
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: was Minnesota. That was a fantastic game. Okay, there's a
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: reason I bring that up. On New Year's Eve.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Night before the Peach Powl, myself, Roger Wallace, Noah Gross
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: from k E Shan, my son Andy, my son Jason,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: and a statistician Steve Leech's the six of us were
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: sitting at a table at a local restaurant right almost
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: right next door, just across the street up one block,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I guess from the team hotel.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: That's why we went there.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: And it had good reviews and so we were there
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: and uh, there were a couple other people from a
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: network at the other table and we were there. There
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: was a little bit of weight, but we got in
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: sat down. From the time I ordered till the time
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: we left was two hours and had never got any food.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they it just kept they kept coming back and apologizing.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Kitchens backed up, and it had it not been for
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: the Fiesta Bol going on, which we were watching on
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the main screens, we just left. We would have left earlier.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Finally we just got them left. I'm not gonna wait
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: any longer. This is ridiculous. We were there for two
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: hours and then we left, and then we went to
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: uh there was another restaurant in the back of the
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: hotel that we discovered and we were able to get
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: some dinner pretty late there. But while we were watching
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: the Fiesta Bowl, my son Jason, who like you as
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a thunderfan, was first watching on his phone and then
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: he saw it. It was on another screen that had it
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: on another screen in that in that restaurant, and he
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: was watching the rest of that. And when I first looked,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you know, they were way way behind you, and all
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: of a sudden they turned around one anyway that that
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: came to mind, and thinking about that.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: There's some sort of like cardiac kids. If it turns
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: out right now the way they're coming and coming back
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: in these second.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Half Let's hear from some more Longhorn players from the media.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Zoom.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: This is from the Longhorn's hard hitting sophomore linebacker Anthony
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: or as many Colin and Hill.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: And as it sent a good shock wave through the
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: building that y'all are underdogs this week.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: We never consider ourselves underdogs. I mean, we just want
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: to go out there and play and execute the best
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: of our ability, So we kind of don't look at
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: what they sound and all that. We just want to
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: tune all that up. Hey, what are you seeing Will Howard?
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: That makes him a dangerous quarterback? And how excited are
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: you to prove the critics wrong that say that the
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: long runs are going to get the beat? So we
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: kind of actually played him last year a lot, so
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: I mean he's an elite quarterback.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I mean he has a big frame, he can run
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: with these two.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: He puts the ball in in at least spots deep
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: down the field intermediately, So we kind of have to
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: limit him and just make sure we got him under control.
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: Our next question is gonna come from Thomas Jones. Go ahead, Anthony,
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: good afternoon. Hey, have you guys learned anything last couple
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: of weeks playing these mobile quarterbacks like like club Nick
• 5:41
  Speaker 6: at Clemson And last week there was one stay.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: We kind of just learned that we have to learn
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: how to plaster a little better, and we've been working
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: at practice plastering in the secondary and just being able
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: to keep contained and have guys ready to break the
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: container and get ready to go for them.
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: Hey, and hopefully you can hear me a whole It
• 6:00
  Speaker 7: was good. But just want to talk about the extended season.
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: I know the body doesn't feel great with more games
• 6:05
  Speaker 7: on the schedule, but I am interested to know just
• 6:07
  Speaker 7: the chemistry wise, right, having more time with the guys
• 6:10
  Speaker 7: on and off the field. Do you see the benefits
• 6:13
  Speaker 7: of having more games on the schedule.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: I mean it's awesome. I mean going to the bowl games,
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: I mean we were playing a game with each other
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: a lot. We had a lot of time to spend
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: with each other. So it's been pretty good to get
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: the next time with some of the guys and some
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: of thenationra linebakers, some of the seniors that you know
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: are going to be gone next year, so it's been
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: pretty cool getting extra time with them and just shutting
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: with them.
• 6:31
  Speaker 8: And do you feel like y'all lack killer enstinct as
• 6:34
  Speaker 8: a team and you know, have an issue of putting
• 6:37
  Speaker 8: away teams.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: I mean, we're going against the elite football team, so
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: we know everything is not gonna be perfect, But I
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: feel like it's all about how you finish. And I
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: feel like a lot of these games we're finishing, we're
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: putting them away when it matters.
• 6:51
  Speaker 9: And just talk about the need for y'all to get
• 6:56
  Speaker 9: to Howard, to get him off his spot, to get
• 7:00
  Speaker 9: him unsettled. Y'all did have a strip sack against him
• 7:03
  Speaker 9: last year.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, we want to get every quarterback off the spot.
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: I mean, what makes it better for the secondary and
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: some of the guys that are are covering. So we
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: want to give off the spot to make him, make
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: him see things a little first hee and limit his
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: time in the pocket.
• 7:17
  Speaker 10: Yeah, Anthony, Not necessarily their personnel, but stylistically, when you
• 7:21
  Speaker 10: look at Ohio State on tape, what are some of
• 7:24
  Speaker 10: the signatures you notice from this this chip Kelly Ryan
• 7:27
  Speaker 10: Day offense? And do they stylistically they remind you of
• 7:29
  Speaker 10: anybody you guys face this year.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: They haven't really reminded me of anybody that we face,
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: but just looking at their offense, I mean, they have
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: a lot of different things that they do. They have
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: really lead receivers to a lead beats and a great quarterback.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: So it's going to be a challenge for us to
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: stop him, and I feel like we're up to the challenge.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: If you have a question, please make sure you use
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: to raise your hand function and we will call on
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: you to make sure we get your question in.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Hey, Anthony, just watching Trevion Henderson and Quinn Shawn and Judkins.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: What's it like preparing the two different backs of that caliber.
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: It's it's been pretty good. I mean it's been a
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: fun week of practice prepared for them. I mean they're
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: really patient backs, both of them there. You can tell
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: that their coach really will and they're really a lead
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: out the backfield.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: They can catch out the backfield.
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: So it's gonna be a challenge for the linebackers and
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: we've been doing that in practice, trying to work to
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: get better to working with them.
• 8:19
  Speaker 11: Hey, what are the ticket requests? I mean, it's got
• 8:22
  Speaker 11: to be difficult in a college football semi final, but
• 8:25
  Speaker 11: they excited for you within that to kind of go
• 8:28
  Speaker 11: back to.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Your home home area there.
• 8:31
  Speaker 11: Yeah, just how much excitement is there for you going
• 8:36
  Speaker 11: back to ATG Stadium.
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: It's really signed. I mean, the family don't got to
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: travel nowhere. Mom and dad, little brother don't have to
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: really travel anywhere to get to the game. You're gonna
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: have a couple extra family members there. So it's been
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: it's gonna be really cool. I want a national state
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: championship there, so it's gonna be fun trying to.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Get away back in that stadium.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: And you know now that you everyone's wanted the playoffs forever.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: Now that you guys are halfway through this, you know,
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: with the length of the season, I mean, how do
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: you think the guys really do feel physically aside from
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: the normal bumps and bruises.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: I mean, at the end of the day, we summed
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: up through this, so we can't really complain mentally.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: We feel like everybody's doing good.
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: You know, your body may not feel the best, but
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: at the end of the day, nobody cares. We have
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: to go execute it and get in the training room.
• 9:20
  Speaker 8: Hey.
• 9:20
  Speaker 12: And on that note, I wanted to ask what are
• 9:23
  Speaker 12: some of the things that you guys maybe did differently
• 9:25
  Speaker 12: or the start this year or maybe early in the
• 9:27
  Speaker 12: season to prepare your bodies, and maybe what the coach
• 9:31
  Speaker 12: did to help you be ready to play this long
• 9:33
  Speaker 12: of a season just an.
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: Extra time in the hot tub. I mean they taught
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: to took some of the load of off of us
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: in practice. I mean a little bit less team run
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: and just little stuff to get our bodies prepared for
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: the long season because we knew we feel like we
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: would be this far.
• 9:49
  Speaker 8: And it's y'all's first year in the league and they
• 9:52
  Speaker 8: are the only SC team still standing.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what does that say about Texas?
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: I mean, we feel like we're in the leaite football,
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: so we kind of don't think about what other teams
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: are doing. We just focus on ourselves and so it
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: feels good being chill in the playoffs and hopefully we
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: can do it again next year.
• 10:10
  Speaker 10: And Anthony Sark said after the SEC Championship, you guys
• 10:14
  Speaker 10: got to come to Jesus meeting about penalties. Cut them
• 10:18
  Speaker 10: down against Clemson. It was in double digits again. I guess,
• 10:20
  Speaker 10: I guess Arizona State, When when the competition kicks up,
• 10:24
  Speaker 10: your facing elite competition, game moves a little faster, how
• 10:27
  Speaker 10: do you remain cognizant of not committing penalties, kind of
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: staying within yourself, but knowing that you do have to
• 10:32
  Speaker 10: play a little faster.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: I feel like it kind of all starts off with practice.
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: I mean, you have to execute and practice really well.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: Me have make sure you have good feet, make sure
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: you're doing everything right in practice so you can go
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: out and do the stuff that you want to do
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: in the game.
• 10:46
  Speaker 8: Yeah. I was just curious, and if you know any
• 10:48
  Speaker 8: of the Ohio State buck Eyes personally, if you're friends
• 10:52
  Speaker 8: with any of them.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: I know a couple of them, but I kind of
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: don't really talk to them during these times. We can
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: hang out after the season or whatever, but I really
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: don't want to, you know, I really communicate right now.
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: Everybody's kind of locked in and doing their own thing.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: Did they recruit you, Yeah, they recruited me a little bit. Yeah,
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: I was recruited by them. Did you visit nod I
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: never got up there. It was kind of a little far,
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: so it's kind of hard for me to get up there.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: He was dialed in on Texas from the start. Anthony
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Hill love him. It's great to visit with all Right,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: We're gonna hear from more Longhorn players and from coach
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Sark when we continue on sports Radio AM thirteen Under
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the Zone.
