Hutton & Withrow: College Football’s Top 10 Games: Ohio State-Texas, Oklahoma-Michigan & Tennessee-Georgia Tech | Hour 2 · Hutton & Withrow Show

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Believe it. It's Hudson Withrow presented by Hard Rock Bet.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: I say believe it because I'm talking to Derek Dooley.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: He could not believe that Clay Travis has a firm,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Clay Travis Law. It's true. Accidents don't wait for a
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: great time. One bad moment, a wreck, a fall, a
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: doctor who wasn't paying attention. And suddenly you're fighting an
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: insurance company that does this every single day. That's why
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Clay started Clay Travis Law. A Vanderbilt Law grad. And
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: he built a firm around an idea that people deserve
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: someone willing to pay attention to ask the hard questions
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: and push back when things don't add up. This is
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: experience with trial attorneys who bring the fight to corporations
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: and insurers and based in Nashville and Chad trusted across
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the country. That's right.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Car and truck wrecks, ride share accidents, medical malpractice, premises, liability,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: product liability. If you were wrong, they want to hear
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: about it. Here's they promise honesty. They don't sugarcoat your case.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: You'll hear what it's actually worth. Not what you want
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: to hear. The case evaluation is free. No charge, no pressure,
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: no hassle. Just tell them your story. Go to claytravislaw.com
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: or call 877-222-4444. That's claytravislaw.com. No case is too big
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: or too small.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Chad, we're about to begin your top 10 games of
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: the college football weekend. You have a great idea. We
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: got some feedback from last week with the fight songs.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: I'm going to explain what you thought of. And I
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: think it's a great concept, which I'm going to select
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: from in real time as you get through your top
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: 10 games.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: So back in the day with Clay Travis on a
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: local radio station, we had hate mail with Hutton where
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Clay would submit some of the most vile stuff that
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: he got on Twitter, on Facebook and email, whatever it was.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: of ripping Clay and hating him, which Clay has numerous haters,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: as we all know. And Hutton would read it in
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: dramatic reading fashion, very powerfully, almost like, you know, Charlton
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Heston reading from the Old Testament was Hutton reading those
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: hate mail with Hutton to Clay. So the idea is
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: we're going to take one of these fight songs, because
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Hutton did this last week, and Hutton will do a
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: dramatic reading of the lyrics of the most ridiculous fight
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: song each week that he can find. I think that
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: explains it well, right?
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: I just found a link to Hate Mail with Hutton
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: from back in the day. Okay. From 13 years ago. Yes.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I'm sending it to the group. We don't have to
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: play it today, but this is an example we could
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: get to and show. I don't even know what this
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: is going to be about, but it's got Clay in
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the back of a car making it rain with the
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: money gun. I don't know if that's the open to
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: the video.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Clay had no white in his beard at that point.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: in that Hutton didn't have a beer at that point.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: It would have no white in it either, no salt
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: and pepper at all. Very different 13 years ago for
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: all of us.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Yes. What is routine and consistent? Not very different, but
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: always great is Chad's top 10 games of the college
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: football weekend with very different matchups this week that are great, Chad.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: Hutton, a week ago, I mean, I probably got to
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: eight games and then really had to stretch for those
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: last two. There were kind of seven, eight no-brainers. This week,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: I ended up writing down 13 games that were under
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: consideration for my games of the week, and I landed
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: on these 10. And I tell you what, it's much
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: better than it was in week one when you look
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: at this slate of games.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Much, much better.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Let's start with game number 10, the Arizona Wildcats on
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: the road to take on the BYU Cougars. BYU ranked
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: 15th nationally overall. a 7.5-point home favorite this game at
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: 3.30 Eastern time on Fox. Northern Arizona and Utah Tech,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: those were the two opponents for Arizona and BYU in
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Week 1. They rolled. They looked really good. Now it
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: gets real for both of these teams. Can Arizona get
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: over the hump in this game and get back to
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: where they were a couple of years ago in the
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Big 12? Big test for them on the road in Provo. Arizona,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: their defense looked good, obviously, against bad competition, but They've
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: got to make Bear Bachmeier one-dimensional. And by making him one-dimensional,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: I mean stop the run. He's more of a running
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: threat than a passing threat. They need to make him
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: prove it through the air if they're going to have
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: a shot in this game against BYU. Game number nine.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Yes, totally agree. I'm going with Bachmeier here, by the way,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: just based on the name.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Bear Bachmeier is an all-time name. Game number nine. Iowa
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: State at number 21, Iowa. The Hawkeyes a two-touchdown favorite
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: in this one. 7.30 Eastern time on NBC. NBC, looking
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: at week one ratings, dominated. They had a great doubleheader
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: that capped with Western Michigan and Michigan. And the Wisconsin-Notre
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Dame game Sunday night blew Ole Miss Louisville out of
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: the water in terms of ratings. So kudos to NBC
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: for a good start to the season. Is this going
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: to be another game that delivers for them in the
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Cy Hawk rivalry game? Head coach Jimmy Rogers. They go
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: from Matt Campbell to Jimmy Rogers at Iowa State. They're
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: going for the most basic names possible. that you could
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: find for their head coaches. It worked for Matt Campbell.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Will it work for him? Cyclones, they're going to have
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: to sell out to stop the run. That means Hank
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Brown or Jeremy Hiklinski, whoever the quarterback is for Iowa
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: in the game, they're going to have some opportunities.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Through the year. This is my matchup, Chad, for fight
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: song versus fight song. Can I jump in?
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Yes, let's do it.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: We start with Iowa State. I'm just going to quote everything. Oh,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: we will fight, fight, fight for Iowa State, and may
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: her colors ever fly. Yes, we will fight with might
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: for Iowa State with a will to do or die. Rah, rah, rah.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Loyal sons forever true. And we will fight the battle through.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: When we hit that line, we hit it hard every
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: yard for ISU. I like that.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: That was good. Move over Kyle Chandler and that Friday
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Night Lights voiceover. I think that Iowa State, that song
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: from Hutton right there may have been even better. I'm
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: fired up. I'm charged up for the CyHot game, Hutton.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Will I get charged up for game number eight? You're
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: damn right I will.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Hey, wait, wait. Here's Iowa. Here's Iowa. Oh, okay.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Sorry.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Very similar. This is why this is the matchup. Remember,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: this fight, fight. Quote. There's Iowa fight song. The word
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: is fight, fight, fight for Iowa. Let every loyal Iowan sing.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: The word is fight, fight, fight for Iowa. Until the
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: walls and rafters ring. Go Hawks. Come on and cheer, cheer,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: cheer for Iowa. Come on and cheer until you hear
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the final gun. The word is fight, fight, fight for
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Iowa until the game is won. It's a damn good matchup.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Battle for battle here.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Do you think in 1910 there was one dude who
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: wrote all the fight songs, especially in the Midwest, and
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: he just went from Iowa to Iowa State? He's like, oh,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: let's do something just similar but a little bit different,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: and we'll change up the words because... Those sounded pretty
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: much identical to me.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: They also have a loyal hymn at Iowa. That's the tiebreaker.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: It's not the Battle Hymn of the Republic, but it's
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: called the Old Gold Hymn. I will give the fight
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: to Iowa here, Chad.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Next week, Hutton will sing the hymns from each school
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: as we go through.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I wonder if we could play the music, and it's
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: like karaoke for me.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Hutton in a strong baritone. We'll bring you the Mississippi
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: State hymn. The Oak Ridge Boys will sing the hymn
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: of Mississippi State.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: The Oak Ridge Boys would fit, even though Alabama, their
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: guy from Alabama, too, could also.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Fit with a Mississippi State one.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Mississippi State at Minnesota, SEC versus Big Ten. A few
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: of these SEC versus Big Ten matchups. Clay Travis wants
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: an SEC Big Ten challenge. He got a little bit
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: of one this week. with some different games. I like
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: this matchup. Minnesota, one and a half point favorite. This
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: game is at 3.30 Eastern time on CBS. Two special
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks are going head to head. Nobody's talking about it.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Kamario Taylor is a dude. He looked incredible in week
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: one for Mississippi State. Bigger test now on the road
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: against Minnesota. And Drake Lindsey, really good pro prospect for
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Minnesota at quarterback. I think this has the makings of
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: a terrific game. Hutton, give me steak. I think Mississippi
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: State goes on the road and gets it done. Jeff Lebby,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: if you remember a year ago, got off to a
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: really good start and the bottom fell out right around
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: the time they lost to Tennessee at home in overtime.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: They had the game one against Texas and they lose
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: that one. Also, he needs a good year this year.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I think this is going to be the start of
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: his good season with Kamario Taylor.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I'm following you on this because you've been strong on
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: this all offseason. I will say during the regular season,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I'm taking Mississippi State. This also could be a Music
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: City Bowl matchup. I'm not knocking the bowl. This is
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: one of the better ones. This feels like a Music
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: City Bowl matchup where I would take Minnesota in that matchup. Here,
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: I'm taking Mississippi State.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Minnesota you never bet against in the Music City Bowl
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: because you know they're going to be highly motivated for it.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Postseason, right.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: I'm also reluctant to take Minnesota in anything because P.J.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Fleck's not allowed to make his guys run bleachers, as
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: we found out, that it was a strong penalty for
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: any type of punishment by exercise that Minnesota levied against them.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: I'm not hearing much about rowing anymore. Not as much row, row,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: row the boat, that's for sure. The Mississippi River does
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: flow through Minneapolis also. So he could be rowing the
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: boat right there. Game number seven. This is Big 12
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: taking on the SEC. Arizona State at Texas A & M.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: The Aggies, a 14.5-point favorite, noon Eastern time on ESPN.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Our guy Jacob Lutz knows about cutter bowling, former Kentucky quarterback.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: He went to Arizona State. He looked terrific in Week
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: 1 against Morgan State, against an opponent, Hutton, that came
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: to Kenny Dillingham in the fourth quarter and said, can
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: we make this a 10-minute quarter?
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: And he did.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: He said, sure, we'll oblige whatever you need. That's how
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: bad the route was, that they shortened the quarters and
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: shortened the game as it went along. It was the
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: equivalent of the high school football running block.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: I was going to say. that we've seen.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: That's what Morgan State requested. And Kenny Dillingham was like, sure,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I get it. We'll do that. We'll shorten the game
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: for you. That's how good Cutter Boley looked against Morgan State.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Texas A & M looked good in week one, too. Again,
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: another game with the first real test for both these teams.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Can Kenny Dillingham... get Arizona State to where they were
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: when Sam Leavitt was healthy a couple of years ago
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: and they get to the college football playoff? Or is
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: this more of the same from a year ago for
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: this Sun Devils team? If they can go on the
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: road and challenge Texas A & M in this game,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: it's going to say a lot about Arizona State's chances
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: in the Big 12.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Yes, and this is where I'm going A & M.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: This is where I feel like A & M normally
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: has a little hiccup, though. Like the Miami game from
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: like two or three years ago, where it was like
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: 17-7 final. I'm sticking with Lucci, his group here.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Hutton, we'll have to check the record books to go
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: back into the annals of the top 10 games of
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: the week. But I think right now I've got the
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: first ever game that's on the USA Network to appear
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: in the top 10 games. Are you ready for this one?
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: This is the Burn Notice Special. I'm trying to think
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: of other great USA.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Mr.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Robot Special. Is it a white-collar game, Chad? What's the
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: programming on USA called? Blue Skies Programming. all happy, all bright.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: That's what we get. The Blue Skies game of the
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: week on the USA Network is on a blue turf, Hutton.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: It is Memphis at Boise State. The Broncos, an 8.5-point favorite,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: 6 o'clock Eastern kickoff on USA. You think Boise State.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: You think Memphis in the past with Mike Norvell and
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: others as head coach. You think passing offense. You think
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: a lot of scoring. These teams can score a lot.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: They're going to do it on the ground. This is
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: an old-school, physical, smash-mouth football game. Boise State's got the
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: two-headed monster at running back, Charles Huff at Memphis. He
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: is establishing his identity as pound the rock, baby. We
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: are 4-4-4. Get your first down. They physically dominated UNLV
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: up front in that big win in the second half.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Offensive line, defensive line. This is going to be an
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: old-school smash-mouth football game between Memphis and Boise State. Big
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: group of five game in this one, Hunt. I can't
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: wait to watch. And the winner of this one I
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: think is going to have a nice little shot if
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: they run the table and do some things of being
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: that college football playoff rep from that group.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: This is a part of my parlay on Hard Rock Bet.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: I've got Memphis. I teased it down. I teased it up,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: excuse me, where I think I have them at like
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: plus 12.5 or something. And I reduced the Vols down
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: to 10. I like the Tigers. And again, they can
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: go toe-to-toe. We saw them score for scoring as UNLV.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Game number five, Hutton, a game played tonight, actually.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Number 23, Missouri at Kansas. I'm guessing our guy Timmy
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: B is going to be on the call this Friday
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: night game. 7 o'clock Central Time kickoff on Fox. Missouri
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: with Austin Simmons. Missouri is always that forgotten team in
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: the SEC. One that we know is going to be
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: pretty good, but we're not really thinking about them as
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: a playoff contender or a team that's going to make
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: a lot of noise. I kind of feel that way
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: about Missouri this year. It is not a big lineup.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: in this game. It's only five and a half, Missouri favored.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: This is one of my bets of the week that
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: we're going to get to. Hunt, in fact, I have
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: three games I'm going with on Friday night. There's some
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: good games with Friday night college football tonight, but Missouri
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: at Kansas, big one for both teams, but I think
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Missouri goes in and gets it done.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I'm taking Missouri just because I know more about them.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I feel like Kansas is probably the play I should
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: have gone earlier in the week. because Missouri fans hate us,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: and we might as well just keep that going. We
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: might as well be their Lane Kiffin.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll be your punching bag. I mean, LSU fans
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: hate me now, so let's just tick off other SEC
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: fan bases. And even though the game's not played in Missouri,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: let's go ahead and make fun of the fact that
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: you've got a rock formation in the end zone. There's
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: a reason why. And that's ridiculous. You know what real
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: football programs have in their end zone?
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: Bleachers. They have seats.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: They don't have a football facility. Sorry, Mississippi State. They
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: don't have a state-of-the-art football facility, and they don't have
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: rocks in their end zones.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Sweets in their end zones.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: They have seats for fans. That's what they have. Game
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: number four. Two Jacob Lutz references in one segment.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: How about that?
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Number 12, Alabama at unranked Kentucky. Will Stein would have
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: you believe otherwise about this Kentucky Wildcats team. 3.30 Eastern
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: time on ABC. I've had multiple people come up to me,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: whether it be at my daughter's softball practice, out at
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: the gym, wherever I am. And they're not asking about
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Tennessee Georgia Tech, which we'll get to. Really? They're asking me,
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: can Kentucky pull the upset in the first SEC game
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: of the season against Alabama? Tell you what, if Will
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: Stein's swagger had anything to say about it, I think
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: they absolutely could pull off the upset. Jacob Lutz will
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: be in attendance for this one. He's going to be wasted.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: It's $ 5 light beers in the stadium. Hutton, I think
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: it's going to be a great atmosphere. I don't think
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Kentucky wins this game, but this is a big test
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: for Kenny Minchie as he tries to prove himself for
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: the first time as a starting quarterback. He passed the
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: test in week one against Youngstown State, passed for over
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: 300 yards. I can't wait to watch Alabama and Kentucky.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: What did you say the spread is on this?
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: The spread is Alabama 10.5.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I would take the points. I think it's a tight game.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: This feels a lot to me like the South Carolina
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: game of Bama two years ago. Was it two years
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: ago or last year? Two years ago. Where, I don't know,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: where Kentucky's going to have a chance to win, I
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: think Bama wins. I just think it's tight in the fourth.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Here we go. This is one of those early season
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: matchups where you learn from it and you look back
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: and you think, man, if we had that, we'd be
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: playing a New Year's Day bowl game.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I feel like Kentucky's always really good early in the year, too.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: especially early home games in the SEC. I don't have
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: the record in front of me, but it feels like
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: they usually play well in September when they get those
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: home SEC games.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: The South Carolina matchup we used to always see.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. If I bet this one with
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Hard Rock Bet, I'm probably taking Kentucky and those points,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: but Alabama to win a close game. But I'll be
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: watching regardless. Game number three, number 18, Tennessee at Georgia Tech,
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: 7 o'clock Eastern time. on ESPN. I see some analysts
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: saying this is the sneaky best game of the week.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Tennessee is close to a two-touchdown favorite. It's 12.5, open
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: at 13.5, down at 12.5. Brent Key makes all these
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: comments about my team is soft, we're poorly coached, we
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: are poorly prepared. I think his team's got the message here,
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: and I feel like a Brent Key coached team will
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: respond appropriately. They're not going to wilt. I hear that
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: and think, boy, it's a little early to just be
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: burying your team that way. But I'm sure they've been
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: told how bad they were in that first game, and
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: he probably took ownership of how bad they were too.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Georgia Tech tried to do too much offensively in that
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: first game. You go back and watch it, the first
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: series alone, they're running six, seven different formations, shifts, everything else.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: There's going to be a lot of eye candy with
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: this new Georgia Tech offense. They need to get back
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: to trying to do something that works and doing it well.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: That's what Tennessee does. With Josh Heupel. They have an identity.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: They know what they want to do. They usually do
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: it pretty well.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Hutton, Tennessee looked a lot better in week one. This
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: is going to be their first test. Faison Brandon will
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: face adversity in this game. They didn't have to face
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: in week one. He's going to throw a pick. He's
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: going to fumble. Tennessee's going to give up a touchdown.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: It's going to be.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Close at times.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: This is the first bit of adversity he faces. How
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: does he respond in this game at Georgia Tech? It's
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: a game both teams desperately need. You don't want to
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: be one and one. And have a loss on your
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: resume before hosting Texas if you're Tennessee. And you definitely
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: don't want to be 0-2 if you're Georgia Tech after
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: this game.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: No, this is one of those must-win type games for
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. And same thing for Tennessee in terms of expectation. Chad,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: this is my feeling on this. I'm taking the under
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: in this game. Because they didn't run the ball well
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: at Georgia Tech last week against Colorado. You had comments
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: from Deion. This is Brent Key coached football team. They
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: run the ball well at Georgia Tech. And correct me
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, you and I have been discussing on
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: the Power Hour and other places the Tennessee defensive front
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: versus the rest of the– you want to know about
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: pass rush and then just how they get up and
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: stuff the run. You've got different question marks, different injuries
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: across the offseason for Tennessee. I think Georgia Tech is
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: going to be pissed off for greatness up front with
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: the offensive line. They're just going to pound the rock.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: And I think it's a low-scoring football game. And on
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: the road, protect your freshman quarterback if you're Tennessee. You
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: want to run the football too. I'm taking the under.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: That's the play for me.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: I like it, Hutton. And I also think the legs
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: of both Alberto Mendoza and Faison Brando will be key
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: in this game. What defense can stop the run ability
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: of the opposing quarterback better is going.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: To be big in this one.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Game number two, number 11, Oklahoma at Michigan. Unranked Michigan
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: looks weird to see it at any point in time,
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: but that's what we're seeing now with the Wolverines team. who,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: let's face it, they lost to Western Michigan, and they
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: got cheated an extra play. And they made that play.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Credit to Michigan for completing the Hail Mary and making
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: a miraculous play. But they go in 1-0. It doesn't
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: feel like 1-0 for Michigan. This is the big noon
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: kickoff on Fox this week. Oklahoma, a five-and-a-half point favorite
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: in this game. John Mateer. going on the road. How
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: does Michigan bounce back? I feel like Kyle Whittingham, with
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: his toughness and everything he was able to do at Utah,
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: this is a game where he will get his guys
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: to respond. Hutton, I say that, and then I watch
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Bryce Underwood all week at the podium taking questions. I'm like,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: this dude doesn't want to be there. I He sounds
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: and looks like a defeated guy who is mad at
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: his coach, who doesn't want to be a Michigan Wolverine anymore.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Here's my prediction after this game. Bryce Underwood won't be
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: the starter in the third game of the season.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: That's what I think is going to happen after this game.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: I think they're going to move on pretty quickly with
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: his attitude. Does Bryce Underwood want to be there based
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: on the comments? We're about to find out is my answer.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: We're about to find out with his performance here. How
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: does he react and play to the coach comments after
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: the way he performed, which was awful in the first matchup?
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: And what does Vegas know here? Because Michigan fans I've
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: talked to this week, diehards, expect to get their asses
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: kicked in this game. And it's five and a half.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: And it's the coaching. There's a part of me that
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: says Brent Key at Georgia Tech will have a great
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: response to his roster because those are his dudes. And
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: then at Michigan, it's the opposite. But there's a reason
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: why I love the hire that the Wolverines made for
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: the football department in the future of their program. I
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: believe Michigan is going to play very well here. And
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: it's just because of the bounce back and the pissed
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: off for greatness aspect that has been the talk in
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: their bubble. And I have a weird feeling that Bryce Underwood,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: when he's just like, cool, cool. We're about to find
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: out if he's just an outright killer when it comes
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: to the mentality. Or if it's more video game chill, whatever,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: I want to bounce. And this is a primetime matchup.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: This is where he should ball out with all eyes
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: on him instead of taking it for granted that he's
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: playing Western Michigan.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Coup, coup. Koo, Koo, Koo. And then yesterday it was
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: even worse. The way he was just playing with his hair.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: He was barely answering questions. He had zero energy. Hey,
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: that's how he plays.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: He's not the guy. I'm telling you, Oklahoma's going to
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: beat their ass.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: He has not been good.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: And this guy is not going to be the starter
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: after this week.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Why is he five and a half?
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: He looks completely checked out. And I think Kyle Whittingham
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: is going to have to purge. some of the mess
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: from Sharon Moore.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: Hey, and he's doing that with the comments about quarterback.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: One final thought. Does he get booed if he plays
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: bad at home? He should. I bet he will.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, you're making how much money to play quarterback?
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: He'll be booed off the field in this game if
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: he's off.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: That's not– I'm sorry, but if you want the money
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: and you have the right to the money, you're going
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: to get treated like a pro at times.
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: So he should absolutely get booed. And then the comments
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: this week. I mean, again, it's a weird spot. I'm
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: fascinated to see how this dude responds to it.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: And here's what we know.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: About Brent Venables.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Brent Venables will have something for Underwood in that offense.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: He's going to throw some things at them defensively. That's
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: going to make life miserable for them. Yeah, and Michigan
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: looked terrible on offense in the week one.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: And defense, yep.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Game number one, Hutton. It's another Big Ten versus SEC matchup.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: It's pretty simple. It's number one Ohio State at Texas.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Texas a one-and-a-half point favorite. This game is at 7.30
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: Eastern time on ABC. So much has been said about
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: this game already. It's Arch Manning's redemption. He looked terrible.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: A year ago, a lot of people looked bad against
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Ohio State's defense, especially on the road. Arch did not
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: look good in his debut as a starting quarterback. He's
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: talked about wanting to look a lot better in this
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: football game. And Ohio State comes in as the number
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: one team in the country. Julian Sane versus Arch Manning, quarterback.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: We know about all the future NFL draft picks on
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: both rosters. Let's put the ball down. Let's place a
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: ball on this one, Hutton. This is going to be
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: a fantastic football game.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: The vibe I have here is that I want Arch
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Manning to ball out I think Julian Zane's about to
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: become the talk of this game. On the road, this
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: is his moment. Because no one's mentioning his name. And
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: he's a baller. He's a really great quarterback. We haven't
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: talked much about him. And he's got the experience. It's
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: not like they played well against the Texas in that
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: opener last year. There's a lot of motivating factors for him, too, here.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: So, Hutton, let's quickly run through the top ten. College
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: football games, week two. This is a great list. Ten
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: through one. Much better week than week one, absolutely. Game
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: number ten, Arizona at BYU. Number nine, the CyHawk trophy
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: on the line when Iowa State travels to Iowa. Eight,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: it is SEC versus Big Ten. Mississippi State at Minnesota.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Game number seven, Arizona State at Texas A & M.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Six is Memphis at Boise State. Number five, Missouri at Kansas. Four...
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: is the first SEC game of the year, Alabama at Kentucky.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Game number three, it's SEC versus ACC when Tennessee travels
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech. And then we
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: got a couple of big, big 10 versus SEC games.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: Game number two, number 11, Oklahoma at Michigan. And of course,
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: game number one, we got Texas hosting Ohio State in
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: a big-time football game. That is your top 10 games
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: of the College Football Week.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Well done, Withrow. This is stacked. Can't wait, man. Let's
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: kick it off, shall we? It's also NFL kickoff. Week
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: one has arrived. And expectations galore. Expectations galore for coaches, quarterbacks,

  Speaker 1: faces have to go. That's next. We've got the depth
• 25:07

• 26:38
  Speaker 2: a frontiersman as I take every sip.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: All cheers for the water. Our cups are overfilled. It overflowed.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Good morning to everyone here at Hutton and Withrow, presented
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: by Hard Rock Bet. That's right.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: Overflowed.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Overflowed. Hey, man, there's an overflow of some new faces
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: across the NFL for head coaches right now. But that
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean, like, everyone's safe because it's year one for
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: a majority or you've got a lot of solid coaches left.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: across the league as well. No, no, no, no. There
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: are plenty of coaches that go into this year feeling
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: the heat. It's playoff or pink slip for some of them.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Here's your NFL coaches rankings for that. Chad, Shane Steichen, Indianapolis.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: You've got the Colts with a lot of expectation here.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: The way they started last year versus how they finished.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: And I know Daniel Jones got hurt. But you have
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: a number one wideout that they deem worthy of a
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: top contract in Alec Pierce. Quarterback is back. Running back
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: who was paid recently wants to get paid again. Give
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: me Shane Steichen right here going into the season knowing
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: that it's time. It's time to put up or shut up.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: for Indianapolis. I like them, though. I like them to
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: actually live up to some expectation. Plus, you have Jim
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Irsay's daughter on the sideline taking notes all the time.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: That can't feel great, even though last year you keep
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: your gig. What do you think about him being number one?
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: I like it, Hutton. Can you imagine Amy Adams-Strunk with
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: a headset on the sideline, standing right behind Robert Sala
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: the entire time, taking notes on his job performance? That's
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: just a really funny visual when I think about Carly Irsay.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: the owner of the Colts, standing behind the coach the
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: whole time. I kind of like it. I don't normally
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: like owners that meddle or interfere. Typically, the best owner
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: is the one you very rarely hear from, and they're
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: off to the side and just do the job of
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: basically signing the checks and hiring good people. But for
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: whatever reason, it's charming when it comes to Mrs. Ursa
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: and what she's doing with the Colts organization. So, yes,
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: I buy it. that Shane Steichen should be high on
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: this list.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: Maybe a surprise for many when they see this name
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: at number two. But it's not a rebuild in Buffalo.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: The expectation is to win a Super Bowl. And if
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: it bottoms out for any reason, you made the wrong choice,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: even though it's time they wanted to move on from
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: just going to the playoffs wasn't good enough. I'm saying
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: if it goes really south, watch out for just the
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: quick trigger with a new stadium. You've got the quarterback
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: in his prime. He's playing MVP level. The Bills are
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: in their window. They're in their window. It's time to
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: win in Buffalo. Zach Taylor, same thing with Cincinnati. Joe Burrow.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: He's already been to a Super Bowl. Now he's healthy.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: You've got the offense back together. There's just no more
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: excuses after a three-year playoff drought. The defensive issues that
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: they've had recently. And look, you've had certain things that
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: are like the goodwill that comes with going to a
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl. It's time for Zach Taylor to show the results,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: much like some of these other coaches who have had
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: postseason success, but not the long-term consistency that Todd Bowles
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: is on that list as well, Chad, with just getting
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: to the postseason. That's not good enough. Winning that division,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: it's not a good division. But I like Tampa, but
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: it's time to take the next step and be a
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: part of those teams that you expect to get back,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: not just to the playoffs, but deep in the playoffs.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: And Aaron Glenn, he's on the list just because he's
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: the coach of the New York Jets. And we know
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: how there's a quick trigger there. Plus, it was just
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: a brutal year one. And, you know, the matchup here
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: against the Titans in week one, it's a gift for
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: both teams, really, for either coach to get off to
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: a first start that they're not used to seeing.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: And Todd Bowles is a number four, Hutton. I mean,
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: they didn't make the playoffs last year. We're going to
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: look back and study at some point the fact that
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: the Carolina Panthers, this is going to be a memory
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: hold for a long time. They won the NFC South
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: last year. And made the playoffs.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: What they did with the second half meltdown there, they
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: started 6-2. They're like the Colts. And then they lost
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: like seven of nine games. And they kept opening the
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: door for the rest of the division with their divisional matchups.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: And Baker Mayfield's trying to get a contract now. There's
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: a weird kind of vibe there. And Bowles has always
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: been the quiet leader there. He's respected, but is it
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: enough to get them over the hump? And they don't
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: have Mike Evans there for the first time in 11 years.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Is there a less talked-about defending division champion than the
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers? Going back to that division, why Todd Bowles
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: needs to win it?
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Yes, there is. Jacksonville.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: That's another great example. But both those teams, no one's
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: factoring them in to be any real contender. of any kind.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: I'm with you on Todd Bowles. I would argue you
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: may even should be higher on this list because of
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: the way they fell apart late last season and to
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: not win that division that's terrible and looks to be
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: pretty bad again this year. With Baker Mayfield playing the
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: way he has, they need to be the team representing
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: the NFC South in the playoffs.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Mayfield's first half, he was right there with Daniel Jones
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: for MVP. First half is the first half, though. And
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: I get it. It's not how you start until you finish,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: whatever cliche you want to throw in there. The Bucs
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: and the Colts, they were hot right out of the chute.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: They were scoring points. Their defense were playing well. And
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: then the collapse. Both coaches make my top five. We've
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: got some really good personalities, speaking of head coaches in
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: the SEC. One of them is Will Stein. We discussed
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: what he said going into the Bama matchup. That's straight
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: ahead here on How to Withdraw. It is Hutton to
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Withrow presented by Hard Rock Bets. We are live at
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: sportandstate.com and other platforms, including the Daily Wire. Glad to
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: be there. Glad to be partnered with XXXY Athletics, founded
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: by Jennifer Say. And she's a former national champion gymnast.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: She's a former Levi's brand president. She walked away from
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: a corporate job rather than say something that she didn't believe.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: And she started XXXY Athletics instead. And the mission, in
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: their words, empower female athletes, take a stand for fair competition.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: They call it the tee that launched a movement. This
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: is real athletic apparel. It's where you get the official
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: gear for Clay Travis' WNBA team that he would like
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: to start right here in Nashville, the Nashville Balls.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: I saw our friend Lyndon Blake wearing the official Nashville
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Balls merch.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: And posing for a photo with it. She found the shirt.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: She knows where to go. It's XXXY. That's where you
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: can get the apparel of future five-time WNBA champion Nashville Balls.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: A budding dynasty. You can get the tees and trucker

• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to go to the website. I'm on
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: it right now, actually. I want to check it out
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: in the chat. You want an actual ball shirt?
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: You want some balls on your... You know what?
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: I'm good. All set. Thank you, though. I appreciate that.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: I recommend everyone else go get that shirt or that
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: trucker hat and wear it. But I'm all set.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you. Very random here. I'm reminded that the
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: basketball rib, you can actually fit two basketballs at the
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: circumference of the rib. I don't know why I thought that.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: I think Larry Bird taught me that in his How
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: to Play Basketball with Red Auerbach.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: It is incredible that you can do that. And I
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: also think about Coach Norman Dale and Hoosiers. the great
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Gene Hackman, who when they got to Butler Fieldhouse had
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: to measure, hey, look, it's 10 feet, you know, for
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: a free throw or 15 feet, 10 feet to the basket.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: It shows like, oh, it's the same dimensions as our
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: gym back home in Hickory.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go play a basketball game and let's
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: upset South Bend Central. That's exactly what they did, Hutton.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: They went out. Once they knew the dimensions were the same,
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: they went out and they played their game.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, that's right. Hey, will Kentucky play their game?
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: There's a, They're going to be sauced. I know that, Chad.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: And you point out Will Stein encouraging fans to raise
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: all kinds of hell against Bama.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: Yes. So Will Stein went on KSR and said that
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: he wants Kentucky fans to arrive early and scream obscenities.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: at Alabama players, and suggested they sneak alcohol into Kroger Field.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: That was Will Stein talking about it. I don't know
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: that his administration would love him stealing revenue from them.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: They can buy alcohol now in the stadium also, so
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: maybe don't sneak the alcohol in. But everything else he said,
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: I'm totally fine with. In fact, I'm fine with him
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: telling people to sneak alcohol into the games.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: What's different than any other week? That should be the standard, right?
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: That's been going on for years and years. That is
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: the fabric of college football. You get your free ticket,
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: and you're sneaking something into the game, right?
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: I've been to Kroger Field twice in my life.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: It's K. Roger Field to me, but yes.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: One was 2009, and I didn't even make it into
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: the stadium that night. I continued hanging out at the tailgate,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: so there was no need to even deliver the booze
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: in the Kroger Field that night. Tennessee won that game
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: on a Montreal Hardesty touchdown. Lane Kiffin was the head coach,
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: and they won in overtime that night in Lexington. I
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: remember hanging out with a Jared Lorenzen-led tailgate at one point,
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: meeting Jared Lorenzen's sister and family. at a Kentucky tailgate.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: They all had signs that said, party like it's 1984,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: because that was the last time they had beaten Tennessee
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: at that point. This was 2009, keep in mind, at
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: that time. That was a fun day at Kroger Field.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: And then I went back in 2017, and I saw
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: Kentucky beat Butch Jones right before he was fired. I
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: believe that's the game that got him fired. This was
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: a very close game. Was it a wide receiver quarterback?
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: Was that the one?
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: I don't remember, to be honest with you. Why do
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: I not remember? Because it was Kroger Field, and everyone
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: there was drunk, including me. That's how.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: I just remember a game.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I know Tennessee lost that game.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Joey Kitt and I did the post-game show, the Tennessee
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: tailgate show at the time. I just remember a game
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: where Tennessee lost to a wide receiver quarterback.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, I know what you're talking about.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: That was 2011. Okay.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: That was the beginning of the end for Derek Dooley.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: We'll bring that up with Coach. The year before, he
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: beat Kentucky to get to a bowl, and it was
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: like a triumphant moment because it was a tough first year,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: and he inherited the mess from Lane Kiffin. There was
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: a lot of optimism going into 2011. 2011 was a disaster.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Was it Woodson, I think, was the receiver-turned-quarterback in that game?
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: Well done, man.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: That was bad.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: Matt Roark. Thank you very much. Not Woodson. Matt Roark
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: was the quarterback that day. that beat Tennessee. I was
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: in Atlanta with my wife, Angie, just hanging out for
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: the weekend. I remember going to a sports bar and
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: watching that game on one of those tiny TVs they
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: put in the booth next to you and watching the
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: whole game that way. And it was very, very upsetting.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: Uh, so Will Stein has an updated statement, uh, mentioning,
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: you know, the, the tried to take away inventory or whatever.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Here it is. Um, Let's see. I can't wait for Saturday.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: We need our fans to bring the energy and make
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: a difference for our team. Come ready to have a
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: great time. Be loud and enjoy the day. Be respectful.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: There are plenty of options to enjoy responsibly inside Kroger Field.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: There it is. Bring the noise. Have some fun. See
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: you Saturday. Go Cats.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: This is a preview of the statement I'll have to
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: read on Monday's show, saying that I would, in fact,
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: like one of the Nashville Balls shirts. And there are
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: plenty of great options at XXXY.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: I would like balls on my chest.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be getting a text from Clay Travis that says, oh,
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: Chad Withrow's got an amended statement. When Jonathan Hutton asked
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: him if he wants the Nashville Balls shirt, he, in fact,
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: does want one of those shirts. And there are plenty
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: of other great options as well.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: When Jonathan Hutton asked Chad Withrow, would you like balls
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: on your chest? The answer was no.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah. We want to rethink that, don't we? I think
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: it's time to rephrase that and say, yes, we do.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, man. Hey, Titans and Vols. Let's discuss that, the
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: spreads coming up, and the magnitude of the weekend for both.
• 39:38

  Speaker 1: Where are you starting, Jeb?
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: So I may be an idiot and I may not
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: have the right tabs up when I do this, but
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure you can't bet props on college games
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: with players. That's fine.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Over-under is good.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my profit like it hot. I'm going to do
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: something I don't normally do and go over-unders each week
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: on what I'm feeling. Hutton, I'm going with three Friday
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: night games, okay? Are you ready for this? Yes. I've
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: got the under in Richmond and NC State at 50.5.
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: From what I saw from NC State's offense... which was
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: as archaic and confusing as I've seen of an offense
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: against Virginia in their design. I feel pretty good about
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: that under in any game they play this year. And
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Dave Doran, known more for his defense. Give me the
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: under with Richmond at NC State tonight. I'm also going
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: to take the under in Rutgers at Boston College. Why?
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: Because it's Rutgers and Boston College, and they're not going
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: to score a ton of points in this game. And
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: I'm going to take the over with Missouri at Kansas.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: Lance Leipold, known for his creativity offensively with Kansas. I
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: think they're going to get some things done against Missouri,
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: and I think Missouri's offense with Coach Drink will continue
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: to fire right along, and I like the over in
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: that game tonight. So give me under Richmond NC State,
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: give me under Boston College Rutgers, and give me over
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: Kansas-Missouri Friday night college football, Hud.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Is Timmy B on one of these?
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: Timmy B's got to be Kansas. That game's on Fox tonight. Yep.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: So I'm assuming Timmy B's got the call at Kansas, Missouri.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: And I'm guessing the big game Beth is going to
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: be on USA.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: Big game Beth. I think she might actually be on Lifetime.
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: I believe she's going to have a game this week
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: is what I'm hearing. And she's going to have that one.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: Hey, you gave me a great idea here because I'm
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: on board with this for early in the NFL season.
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Before I get to my problem, I thought take the
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: under totals in the first half of NFL games. It's
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: like around 24 or 25 points. Last night, that was
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: a no-brainer for me to go under with the travel.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Take the under in these games because routinely, year after year,
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: it's very consistent. NFL offenses, they sputter early on. There's turnovers,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: there's sloppy play, there are penalties, points of emphasis by
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: the officiating. Chad, Kelly in Vegas is the one who
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: was really harping on this a couple years ago. She
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: went on this long with us where we were fading.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: We were fading. She was winning.
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: We were getting faded and people were being very successful
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: fading us. So we finally went with Kelly and we
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: started winning.
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. My profit like it's hot. Give me Jamar
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Chase anytime touchdown. in the matchup against the Buccaneers, Cincinnati
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: starting at home, Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase, anytime touchdown. I'm
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: taking the Jets to win outright against the Titans.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: Oh, no.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. That's happening. Geno Smith's coming in looking like Geno
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Smith from a few years back. And the over 31
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: and a half rushing yards for Josh Allen against Houston.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: He's going to be facing a pass rush that sacked
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: him eight times, I think. Last year. Seven or eight times.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: He's going to be running around. And I'm taking the
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: over where he's going to escape the pocket. He's going
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: to do some things in that game where he's going
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: to have a good rushing performance as well. But the
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: prop is any type of touchdown, Jamar Chase. Just every
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: year when Burrow's healthy early in the season, generally they've
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: been very good in the scripted plays coming out to
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: start game. Jamar Chase gets going early. They get him
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: in rhythm. And I have him score the touchdown. Let's
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: just say first play of the game. I wish we
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: could bet on that, too. First play of the game, Chet.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: You can do first touchdown. You can also say first
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: touchdown and get a big touchdown. So you should bet
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: that for Jamar James. Go big on that. Who was
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: your first overall pick in fantasy? Mine was Christian McCaffrey.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. Yeah.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: That was mine. Derrick Henry was number two.
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: So you should, any time touchdown for Justin Jefferson would
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: be great for you. That'd be a good one.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: Hey, Hutton, I want to take some credit here because
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: I searched Big Game Beth in Google AI mode.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: No way.
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: And it says, just under Big Game, you just searched
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: Big Game Beth. I searched Big Game Beth game of
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: the week. And it says, Big Game Beth usually points
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: to clutch cricket star Beth Mooney, local high school football
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: coverage for the Beth Center Bulldogs, or broadcaster Beth Mullins.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: There it is.
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: We did it, Hutton. We have put Big Game Beth
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: into the lexicon. What is Big Game Beth for first-time viewers,
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: if you're watching on Daily Wire right now? Big Game
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Beth is what we describe as Beth Mullins, the sound
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: of her voice at 11 a.m. on a Saturday morning
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: on ESPN back in the day, opening and welcoming you
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: to Northwestern, hosting Michigan State in the most dreary, awful
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: Big Ten slugfest ever.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: Do the voice.
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: You can imagine.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: Do the voice.
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, look alive, and it's the first and ten for
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: the Bulldogs. That's the voice of Big Game Beth.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: You know it.
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: You love it. I was thrilled when I went to
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: a Tennessee Lady Vols softball game against Nebraska. I looked
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: up in the broadcast booth, and I saw none other
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: than Big Game Beth Mullins in that booth. And I said, Hutton,
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: I've arrived. I've made it to a big game. I
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: have no idea where she's broadcasting right now. We'll do
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: the research and find out, but we will start to
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: have a big game, big game Beth game of the week.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: And we put it out there into AI hub.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: It's fantastic. You were thrilled that big game Beth was
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: there because, because you were there and you didn't have
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: to watch or listen to the broadcast. That's why you
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: were thrilled.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Correct. In 2021, in fact, Hutton, we were at the
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: Alabama LSU game in Tuscaloosa. And you'll remember this. I
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: turn on my phone. We're in a suite watching the game.
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: Watching Alabama get penalties. Yeah, watching Alabama get penalties and
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: Peter Kern going nuts as Hutton points out the flag
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: after a big play. And I'm looking on my phone
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: to watch Tennessee-Kentucky at night. I'm sure Jacob Lutz was
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: at this game also. Tennessee wins it against Will Levis
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: in Kentucky. And on the call that night was big
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: game Beth Moens. I believe Dusty Dvoracek was the color
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: commentator that night, if I'm remembering correctly. But the amount
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: of complaints from both Tennessee and Kentucky fans about tuning
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: into a night game on the SEC and it was
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: the sound of big game Beth is just hilarious. Never
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: gets old to me. So big game Beth. We put
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: it out there. That's her nickname. It will live forever.
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: God bless Beth Moens. God bless football.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: Football's here, man. You have convinced me, and it's not
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: the pressure here, you've convinced me that Tennessee is better
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: right now than they've been in a long, long time roster-wise.
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: They're winning this game against Georgia Tech. Freshman quarterback or not,
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: they're winning this game against Georgia Tech. The Titans are
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: losing this game against the Jets. They are promoting... random
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: things that they're promoting their brand, their, their, their, their
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: new brand and what went into the Titans blue and
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: that the fans wanted this big change, but they have no,
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: no evidence to show anything of these surveys or fan polls.
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: And they're, they're discussing the, the, you know, the final
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: season at Nissan stadium instead of their, their star quarterback
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: and wide receiver and two first round draft picks, new coach.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: This just feels like the Jets coming in, and bad
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: coaches and bad teams, when they have an offseason to prepare,
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: they play well. Just ask Ken Wisenhunt with the Tennessee Titans.
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: He won week one every year. He was only here
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: for two years, a year and a half. But point being,
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: you can win on the road in week one and
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: surprise some people and be a really bad team.
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just– not only the sideshow with what the
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: team's doing that's not focused on football– Cam Ward's dad
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: is DMing people, going off on them. He's got publicists
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: and agents getting mad at people criticizing him. I don't
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: like what I'm seeing. I don't have a good feeling.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: We talked about best vibes and worst vibes in college football.
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: The vibes around the Titans team are incredibly bad heading
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: into the season, and it's going to be a half-empty
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: stadium to open the season, and it's going to look bad.
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: It's going to sound bad. And the Titans will likely
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: play bad. That said, I mean, the Jets should be
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: tanking for the number one overall pick. Like, you've got
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: to win this game if you're the Titans. I think
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: they find a way to get it done.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: Stillman brought this up, and he may not be wrong.
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: He goes, there's a reason why the Jets and the
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: Giants are playing the Titans in the month of September,
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: both of them. He's like, the NFL wants the New
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: York teams to get off to a nice start. I
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: was like, that's not a bad theory on this.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: It's a fair point. I'm looking at my TV screen
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: over here, and I'm seeing footage of George W. Bush
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: throwing out that first pitch at the World Series and
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: throwing the strike, and it's a reminder that we want
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: to thank everybody who serves this country, all the first responders.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: 25th anniversary of 9-11 is a good time to reflect
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: and be thankful for everything that we have because of
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: what the few and the brave have given to us
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: over the years. So thank you, thank you, thank you.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Nick is here. He served our country, and he
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: signed up. for the Army because of 9-11. Nick Moses,
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: thank you for your sacrifice and to his family. NickMoses.org
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: to learn his story. Chad, let's enjoy the college football weekend.
