- 1:22Speaker 1: the vibes. She will pick the vibes up. Taylor Davis,
- 1:26Speaker 1: ESPN college football reporter. She will be on the sidelines
- 1:30Speaker 1: for one of many interesting SEC games we got to
- 1:32Speaker 1: talk to her about. She'll be down there at Ole
- 1:36Speaker 1: Miss as they host Missouri. She joins us here on
- 1:40Speaker 1: a football Friday. Taylor, thank you for coming.
- 1:42Speaker 2: On with us.
- 1:42Speaker 1: How you been?
- 1:44Speaker 3: Absolutely. Thanks for having me. I am in fact here
- 1:46Speaker 3: to bring the good vibes. So thank you for recognizing that.
- 1:49Speaker 3: I've been well, it's been a crazy start to season
- 1:52Speaker 3: so far. I honestly can't believe we're already at week seven,
- 1:55Speaker 3: but I say that every year it flies by. So
- 1:57Speaker 3: looking forward to this one though, a top 15 matchup
- 2:00Speaker 3: and it's going to have everything you want in a
- 2:02Speaker 3: SEC game.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Let's talk about that one first. I mean, there's so
- 2:05Speaker 1: much to talk about in the SEC. I know we
- 2:07Speaker 1: want to ask you a Gamecocks question too. I know
- 2:09Speaker 1: they're off, but we got to do that for the,
- 2:11Speaker 1: for the Gamecock fans. Listen, But let's just start with
- 2:14Speaker 1: Ole Miss, Missouri. I mean, I kind of feel like
- 2:16Speaker 1: you could see a fun one with a ton of
- 2:18Speaker 1: points tomorrow in that one. Like, what are you expecting
- 2:21Speaker 1: to see tomorrow?
- 2:22Speaker 3: Yeah, we are kind of expecting a high-scoring game in
- 2:25Speaker 3: this one, and it really feels like it could be
- 2:27Speaker 3: one of those that comes down to who has the
- 2:29Speaker 3: ball last. And I think as much as it feels
- 2:32Speaker 3: like low-hanging fruit to immediately point to the quarterbacks, you
- 2:35Speaker 3: have to in this one. These are two of the
- 2:37Speaker 3: best quarterbacks in the country. And by the way, they've
- 2:41Speaker 3: got all the history tied to it. Obviously, Austin Simmons,
- 2:45Speaker 3: formerly at Ole Miss, an injury made way for for
- 2:49Speaker 3: Trinidad Chambliss, who is now the essential face of college football,
- 2:53Speaker 3: Heisman frontrunner, and now Austin Simmons returns to Oxford, along
- 2:57Speaker 3: with his, you know, impressive wideout, Caden Lee, who was
- 3:00Speaker 3: also with him here at Ole Miss. And it's a
- 3:03Speaker 3: top 15 matchup with playoff implications. It's crazy that we're
- 3:06Speaker 3: saying that already, but each of these teams already have
- 3:09Speaker 3: an SEC loss, and they still have Texas, Georgia, and
- 3:13Speaker 3: Oklahoma left on their schedule. So winning out would be
- 3:16Speaker 3: incredibly difficult from here. So It has everything on the
- 3:20Speaker 3: line already, and I actually think that both of these
- 3:23Speaker 3: teams have a lot of talent, and they're going to
- 3:26Speaker 3: have to go prove it. You look to Trinidad Chambliss
- 3:28Speaker 3: and the Ole Miss offense, and they've really just done
- 3:31Speaker 3: everything that you expect them to be, even with a
- 3:33Speaker 3: limited Kiwan Lacy. But the defense has been a bit
- 3:37Speaker 3: of a question mark until their bye week, and then
- 3:39Speaker 3: they looked a lot better against Vandy. Four turnovers, only
- 3:43Speaker 3: six missed tackles when they had had three consecutive games
- 3:46Speaker 3: of 14 missed tackles. But was it because they were
- 3:49Speaker 3: up against Vanderbilt? No disrespect to Vanderbilt, but this is
- 3:51Speaker 3: going to be a much more high-caliber opponent that you're
- 3:55Speaker 3: seeing in Missouri's offense. And Missouri's defense is arguably a
- 3:59Speaker 3: strength of the team, specifically the defensive front, looking to
- 4:02Speaker 3: make things difficult for Chambliss. So it has everything that
- 4:05Speaker 3: you could possibly want. Special teams is going to be important, too.
- 4:08Speaker 3: And a little bit of emotional tie to this one.
- 4:10Speaker 3: So you never know what happens when that's in the fold.
- 4:13Speaker 2: That is the voice of Taylor Davis, ESPN, SEC Network,
- 4:17Speaker 2: on the sidelines this weekend for Missouri and Ole Miss
- 4:22Speaker 2: tomorrow afternoon. Taylor, to say it's been a rollercoaster ride
- 4:25Speaker 2: for the Gamecocks may not do justice to rollercoasters at
- 4:28Speaker 2: this point. So as we sit here on the bye week,
- 4:32Speaker 2: what's now the expectation, do you think, for the Gamecocks
- 4:35Speaker 2: after the big win at Florida last week? It's changed
- 4:38Speaker 2: so quickly. Now what can they do in a positive
- 4:41Speaker 2: sense the rest of the way?
- 4:42Speaker 4: Right.
- 4:43Speaker 3: You have to continue the momentum that you were able
- 4:45Speaker 3: to garner from that. And I think what is also
- 4:47Speaker 3: kind of a head scratcher this season is the Florida Gators.
- 4:51Speaker 3: What in the heck is going on in Gainesville? Beginning
- 4:54Speaker 3: of the season, I was covering Florida and I was going, okay,
- 4:58Speaker 3: this may be one of the best offenses in the country.
- 5:00Speaker 3: All the weapons that they have. Aaron Filo looks great.
- 5:03Speaker 3: I think Buster Faulkner is one of the best offensive
- 5:06Speaker 3: coordinators in the country. People need to pay attention to
- 5:09Speaker 3: the Florida Gators. Even Ole Miss and Missouri, who I've
- 5:11Speaker 3: got this week, faced Florida a week apart. And if
- 5:15Speaker 3: you look at the stat line difference in Ole Miss's
- 5:18Speaker 3: loss to Florida and Missouri's win over Florida, it doesn't
- 5:22Speaker 3: look like the same team.
- 5:23Speaker 4: So I do.
- 5:24Speaker 3: Wonder how impactful that loss can be for Ole Miss,
- 5:30Speaker 3: because now we're looking at Florida a little bit differently,
- 5:33Speaker 3: but also how impactful can that win be for South Carolina?
- 5:36Speaker 3: I think that they're going to have to continue momentum
- 5:39Speaker 3: because you do have a question mark of the opponent.
- 5:41Speaker 3: But regardless, we all know how contentious things have been,
- 5:44Speaker 3: you know, in Columbia, around Shane Beamer, around the North Sellers,
- 5:48Speaker 3: the Dylan Stewart suspension. Things were not feeling good. That's
- 5:52Speaker 3: typically when the train goes off the tracks entirely. The
- 5:56Speaker 3: fact that they still focused inward and were able to
- 5:58Speaker 3: go get a road win like that, I don't care
- 6:01Speaker 3: what Florida's doing. Playing in the swamp is hard. It
- 6:03Speaker 3: is loud.
- 6:04Speaker 4: It is intense.
- 6:05Speaker 3: The fact that this team still rallied, put something together,
- 6:09Speaker 3: and looked like a much more equipped team. I think
- 6:12Speaker 3: there's momentum to be taken from that. I want to
- 6:14Speaker 3: see Lenores continue to find his groove, because I think
- 6:17Speaker 3: what he's been up against with so much change, and honestly,
- 6:20Speaker 3: at times, not even a lot of help from his targets.
- 6:23Speaker 3: I think you've got to build a little bit off
- 6:25Speaker 3: of what they've garnered in the Florida win.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Taylor Davis is with us, ESPN sideline reporter. She's got
- 6:33Speaker 1: Mizzou and Ole Miss tomorrow. I want to ask you
- 6:37Speaker 1: about Alabama-Tennessee. That one, I mean, there's three real interesting
- 6:41Speaker 1: SEC games on at the same time. You got one
- 6:43Speaker 1: of them. But this Alabama-Tennessee game is intriguing. I mean,
- 6:47Speaker 1: do you think, can Tennessee's defense kind of keep them
- 6:50Speaker 1: in that game? Because, like, if Alabama goes off like normal,
- 6:53Speaker 1: I have a hard time believing Tennessee's going to score
- 6:56Speaker 1: with them. What do you think about this one?
- 6:58Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 6:58Speaker 3: I'm glad that you started with Tennessee's defense because I
- 7:01Speaker 3: think that that is what would keep them in the
- 7:03Speaker 3: game if it's possible. Also, this being in Neyland. But
- 7:08Speaker 3: I think that actually Alabama losing that game last week
- 7:11Speaker 3: is bad news for Tennessee because they are coming into
- 7:13Speaker 3: this game so irritated. They feel slighted. They feel like
- 7:17Speaker 3: they let that one slip away. And obviously the calls,
- 7:21Speaker 3: whether we like to focus on it or not, it
- 7:23Speaker 3: definitely played a role. So if you, I wouldn't want
- 7:26Speaker 3: to be in the line of fire of a slighted
- 7:28Speaker 3: Alabama team personally. And I think that's what Tennessee is
- 7:31Speaker 3: going to see. But I just was on the call
- 7:33Speaker 3: for Tennessee, Arkansas last week. And I saw that defense
- 7:35Speaker 3: up close, specifically the defensive front and the linebackers. The
- 7:39Speaker 3: first two levels of that defense are very talented, very,
- 7:43Speaker 3: very talented defensively. Bringing in Jim Knowles from Penn State
- 7:45Speaker 3: was such a good hire by Josh Heupel. And interestingly,
- 7:50Speaker 3: he brought with him a coach at every level and
- 7:53Speaker 3: a player at every single level. So it's allowed them
- 7:56Speaker 3: to implement this system way quicker. They are doing new
- 7:59Speaker 3: install weekly because they have so many guys that are
- 8:03Speaker 3: helping make sure that that thing is fine-tuned. So I
- 8:06Speaker 3: think the defense is actually going to be a tough
- 8:08Speaker 3: test for Keelan Russell and Alabama defensively. But I think
- 8:10Speaker 3: they've got more firepower offensively to eventually make it happen,
- 8:14Speaker 3: whether it's deep shots, whether it's just continuing to kind
- 8:17Speaker 3: of ground and pound and let Keelan Russell go improv
- 8:19Speaker 3: a little bit more. Because I don't know that this
- 8:21Speaker 3: Tennessee offense can keep up with him. The fact that
- 8:24Speaker 3: Tennessee's offense has, you know, had so many question marks,
- 8:27Speaker 3: specifically around the quarterback, and we have been told that
- 8:30Speaker 3: George McIntyre is getting another start. He was good, not
- 8:33Speaker 3: great last week. A few turnovers and a few kind
- 8:36Speaker 3: of young moments. But Faison Brandon still dealing with a
- 8:39Speaker 3: shoulder injury. And honestly, even injury aside, It did seem
- 8:43Speaker 3: the game was a bit too fast for him. Some
- 8:45Speaker 3: of the sacks were on him. So I think that
- 8:48Speaker 3: they kind of feel that's the best option to start McIntyre.
- 8:51Speaker 3: But Deshaun Bishop can't carry the load, you know, the
- 8:54Speaker 3: entirety of the SEC season. I mean, he's a stud.
- 8:56Speaker 3: Don't get me wrong. But I don't think this Tennessee
- 8:59Speaker 3: offense has enough figured out to hang with the tide.
- 9:02Speaker 2: Taylor, we were talking to sideline reporter Evan Washburn of
- 9:06Speaker 2: CBS last segment. He's got the Eagles and Panthers in Philly.
- 9:11Speaker 2: We were talking to him about being near the Philly
- 9:14Speaker 2: fans on the sidelines, and he told us about the
- 9:18Speaker 2: Black Hole fans in Oakland, and he would have to
- 9:20Speaker 2: run from spot to spot just to get away from them.
- 9:23Speaker 2: We were going to ask you, in the SEC, who
- 9:27Speaker 2: has the rowdiest fan base when you're sitting there on
- 9:30Speaker 2: the sidelines doing your job?
- 9:33Speaker 3: That's a really good question. I think it really has
- 9:36Speaker 3: so much to do with the matchup, I will say. Like,
- 9:40Speaker 3: I fully expect tomorrow is going to be.
- 9:42Speaker 4: Kind of wild.
- 9:43Speaker 3: But it's dang near impossible if you're talking SEC rowdy
- 9:47Speaker 3: fan bases to not talk about LSU.
- 9:49Speaker 4: Come on.
- 9:50Speaker 3: I mean, a game in Death Valley after tailgating all
- 9:54Speaker 3: day in Baton Rouge, those people get nuts. And honestly,
- 9:58Speaker 3: it's all in good fun. I love it. covering games there. But, yeah,
- 10:02Speaker 3: do I get messed with a good bit? Yes, but
- 10:04Speaker 3: it's all in good fun. I love going to Death Valley.
- 10:07Speaker 1: That's awesome. That is awesome. And that is not a
- 10:09Speaker 1: surprising answer. That was the odds-on favorite. That was the favorite.
- 10:13Speaker 1: That was definitely the favorite.
- 10:15Speaker 2: We didn't think it was the Vanderbilt fans.
- 10:17Speaker 1: No.
- 10:18Speaker 4: No, unfortunately not.
- 10:20Speaker 3: Well, when the Pobias were there, there was usually some
- 10:23Speaker 3: stuff going on with that.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Oh, that's true.
- 10:25Speaker 1: They got rowdy. That fam got rowdy.
- 10:28Speaker 2: That's a good point.
- 10:29Speaker 1: No doubt about it.
- 10:30Speaker 3: You knew when they were in the stadium.
- 10:32Speaker 2: I'll tell you that.
- 10:34Speaker 1: And Theo Vaughn showed up, too. It was a party.
- 10:36Speaker 1: No doubt about it. All right. Taylor, great talking ball
- 10:40Speaker 1: with you. Awesome stuff. We appreciate it. We'll be watching. Tomorrow,
- 10:44Speaker 1: for you on the sidelines, SEC Network at 3.30, Ole
- 10:48Speaker 1: Miss and Missouri. Thank you so much. Enjoy your time
- 10:51Speaker 1: down there in the Grove. Appreciate you.
- 10:55Speaker 3: Thank you guys so much. Have a great day.
- 10:57Speaker 2: You too.
- 10:58Speaker 1: There you go. That is Taylor Davis, ESPN, joining us
- 11:01Speaker 1: here on the Mac and Bone Show. This is a
- 11:05Speaker 1: loaded-up final hour, Bone. We're going to have Picante's picks.
- 11:09Speaker 1: We forgot them last week. Wait, he went 2-2 last week.
- 11:12Speaker 1: We're going to do Picante's picks. We think he might
- 11:14Speaker 1: be here at Harrah's. We're not sure yet. He should be.
- 11:17Speaker 1: He said he loved it. He's been here before. Anybody
- 11:20Speaker 1: that loves sports gambling or just gambling in general, I mean,
- 11:23Speaker 1: Bone and I are kind of.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Not just game watching in general.
- 11:26Speaker 1: Game watching in general. How about a bunch of bars
- 11:30Speaker 1: around in general, cool restaurants and stuff, just an all-around
- 11:34Speaker 1: good time. But we got Zach Gelb coming up. We're
- 11:37Speaker 1: going to see what he thinks about the Panthers. Like,
- 11:39Speaker 1: is this a can't-lose game against Philly with Hurts out
- 11:42Speaker 1: with all their injuries? Does he think we should still
- 11:45Speaker 1: be worried? We'll talk to Gelb about that coming up
- 11:48Speaker 1: at 925. But right now, our next guest, I guess
- 11:52Speaker 1: I can give him that billing. Give him one second, boys.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Oh, okay.
- 11:55Speaker 1: All right, we're getting ready to get him on here.
- 11:58Speaker 2: Is that Shrop?
- 11:59Speaker 1: Is Shrop holding it down? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 12:01Speaker 2: What's up?
- 12:01Speaker 1: What happened? Did you run Philly out of the studio?
- 12:04Speaker 2: Oh, did he get his stomachache again?
- 12:05Speaker 1: Potentially.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Potentially.
- 12:07Speaker 1: I can either confirm or deny. He ran out to
- 12:11Speaker 1: get a jar of mustard. He made himself craving mustard
- 12:14Speaker 1: so badly during that mustard mayo debate earlier on the show.
- 12:18Speaker 1: All right, let us know when you're good, Shrop. We
- 12:20Speaker 1: are going to have our guy– Why do I forget
- 12:25Speaker 1: which initials go where?
- 12:26Speaker 2: It's BP from HB.
- 12:29Speaker 1: There you go.
- 12:29Speaker 2: He's from Huntington Beach.
- 12:30Speaker 1: I wanted to call him HP from the BP.
- 12:34Speaker 2: No, that's a medical condition. It's one of those ads
- 12:37Speaker 2: on TV. If you've got HP from the PV.
- 12:43Speaker 1: And if you're at the BP, you're just calling us
- 12:45Speaker 1: from a gas station. That's not what's happening here. We're stalling, Finney.
- 12:48Speaker 4: Hurry up.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Our guy BP from the HB. He's 1-0. We had
- 12:54Speaker 1: to do something very– we had to make two tough decisions.
- 12:57Speaker 1: We had to take Sir Loin off pep talk duty,
- 13:00Speaker 1: and we know how much he loves screaming to us
- 13:01Speaker 1: on the air. That was hard. Then fan favorite Weatherman Mark,
- 13:06Speaker 1: he was just singing a song, Bone, but the Panthers
- 13:08Speaker 1: lost the game. We had to take him off Weatherman–
- 13:11Speaker 1: or off Weatherman duty. Off pep talk duty. But our man, BP,
- 13:17Speaker 1: got it done. He's 1-0. He is back again to
- 13:20Speaker 1: pump up the Panthers. Pump up the Panthers.
- 13:23Speaker 2: He gassed us up.
- 13:23Speaker 1: BP, hit us up, baby. Pump us up for the
- 13:27Speaker 1: Eagles game. What are you thinking?
- 13:29Speaker 5: Mac, Harley Bone.
- 13:32Speaker 1: Yo. City.
- 13:34Speaker 5: Beautiful people of Queen City. It's me.
- 13:38Speaker 4: Do you hear that?
- 13:41Speaker 1: Yeah, we got you.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, baby.
- 13:43Speaker 4: We got it.
- 13:44Speaker 2: Woo-hoo. Oh, yeah.
- 13:48Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. Where is it at?
- 13:51Speaker 1: Are you feeling it? Are you feeling it this week?
- 13:53Speaker 4: My other song wasn't queued. I'm not Fitty. I'm not Fitty. Wait,
- 13:57Speaker 4: is it here? Here it is. We're giving up on
- 14:01Speaker 4: the music. Technical difficulties.
- 14:05Speaker 1: He's just yelling.
- 14:06Speaker 4: I'm back. One and all on this. Let's break this
- 14:10Speaker 4: down with some good and bad. The bad, how are
- 14:13Speaker 4: they going to cut Max's food voucher in half? The
- 14:16Speaker 4: man just braved a mountain in a hoopty.
- 14:19Speaker 1: That's right, baby. Hoopty made it the whole way. I
- 14:21Speaker 1: deserve rewards.
- 14:23Speaker 4: Yeah, but back to football. Blood pot. That's bad. That's bad.
- 14:28Speaker 4: The good? We're playing a team whose fans cannot spell.
- 14:34Speaker 4: And also, it's more good. There's no Jalen Hurts. Even
- 14:38Speaker 4: with them, though, the Eagles have only been averaging 160
- 14:42Speaker 4: passing yards per game. That's 31st of 32 in the NFL.
- 14:47Speaker 4: Coming off a heartbreaking loss in London. Eight seconds?
- 14:50Speaker 5: Eight seconds?
- 14:51Speaker 2: Come on.
- 14:51Speaker 4: Fitty can do better than that. Did you know? Did
- 14:54Speaker 4: you know that multiple teams coming off an international game
- 14:59Speaker 4: against a team coming off a bye are historically 0-4
- 15:02Speaker 4: in this situation?
- 15:04Speaker 1: Great call.
- 15:04Speaker 4: Do you know what that means?
- 15:07Speaker 2: How are.
- 15:10Speaker 5: We going to do this?
- 15:11Speaker 4: How are we going to do it? One, we're going
- 15:13Speaker 4: to make Tanner McKee beat you. Guy with third string,
- 15:18Speaker 4: sit behind the red rifle before Dalton's release, all right?
- 15:22Speaker 3: You can say, oh, he's supposed to be good.
- 15:23Speaker 5: He's been there, whatever.
- 15:24Speaker 4: No, he sucks. Bama Bryce is playing the best football
- 15:29Speaker 4: of his pro career. Stay aggressive. Panthers averaging over 30
- 15:34Speaker 4: a game. We got to start fast. Take an early lead.
- 15:37Speaker 4: Force Philly into passing downs.
- 15:39Speaker 3: And then you know what's going to happen if we
- 15:41Speaker 3: take a lead?
- 15:42Speaker 4: The fans are going to turn on Sirianni. They're ready
- 15:45Speaker 4: to explode. All right? Win the turnover battle. Carolina's plus
- 15:50Speaker 4: three in turnover differential. Philly's minus three. I like those odds.
- 15:55Speaker 4: You win that. Take care of the ball. Force Philly
- 15:58Speaker 4: to be one-dimensional.
- 15:59Speaker 1: And guess what?
- 16:00Speaker 4: We're going to win 27-17. Let's go. There we go, VP.
- 16:04Speaker 2: There we go, VP.
- 16:07Speaker 1: You the man, BP. That was a great performance. BP, BP, BP, BP.
- 16:11Speaker 1: That was a hell of a performance. That was a
- 16:16Speaker 1: hell of a performance. And the amazing thing about it is,
- 16:20Speaker 1: in the middle of that part rant, part comedy routine,
- 16:24Speaker 1: he dropped the stat that I wanted to use today,
- 16:27Speaker 1: and it slipped my mind. It wasn't going to get
- 16:29Speaker 1: on the show if it wasn't for him. I had
- 16:30Speaker 1: the whole thing typed out in my notes. In this
- 16:34Speaker 1: scenario where the Eagles' bone have, I've got to be
- 16:36Speaker 1: honest with you, been screwed by the league to have
- 16:38Speaker 1: to come back from a London trip overseas, play a
- 16:42Speaker 1: game against a team that was sitting out and resting
- 16:44Speaker 1: and healing up in a bye week. I wanted to
- 16:46Speaker 1: use that stat. Thank God he got it in. 4-0,
- 16:49Speaker 1: the team that has the bye week that goes against
- 16:51Speaker 1: the team that was playing in Europe the week before.
- 16:54Speaker 2: Philly will never complain about that, though.
- 16:56Speaker 1: No, not at all. Not at all. Anyway, strong performance
- 17:00Speaker 1: from BP. We'll see if he can make it 2-0
- 17:03Speaker 1: as the pep talker. When we come back on a
- 17:05Speaker 1: football Friday, what does our boy Gelby think? What does
- 17:08Speaker 1: Zach Gelb think about the Panthers? Is this a game
- 17:12Speaker 1: where they've now become three-and-a-half-point favorites that they can't lose?
- 17:15Speaker 1: How's he feeling about it? And what does he think
- 17:17Speaker 1: about Bo Nix? It is Bo Nix slander season, and
- 17:20Speaker 1: they won yesterday, but it was that bad. We'll talk
- 17:23Speaker 1: to him about that, too. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Sports
- 17:45Speaker 1: Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Mack and Bone with you. Having a
- 17:49Speaker 1: good time. How can you not? As we broadcast live
- 17:52Speaker 1: from one of the fan caves right here off the
- 17:54Speaker 1: sports book at Harrah's Cherokee Casino and Resort. Our guy
- 17:59Speaker 1: Marvin was telling me, Bone, you apply for a Players
- 18:02Speaker 1: Club card. He was telling you that's where you should
- 18:04Speaker 1: be after the show, getting your Players Club card. If
- 18:07Speaker 1: you've never had one before at Harrah's, And you sign up,
- 18:10Speaker 1: you get one. They spin a wheel for you. You
- 18:12Speaker 1: get anything from $ 10 or $ 500 to work with. So
- 18:17Speaker 1: that's beautiful right.
- 18:18Speaker 2: There, man. Our guy Showtime just walked out there, played
- 18:22Speaker 2: the roulette table, won some money. I mean, I've never
- 18:25Speaker 2: seen anyone play those games like this live before.
- 18:27Speaker 1: 1-2-25 and just roll right back to the show, baby.
- 18:31Speaker 2: I can work the gambling kiosk. I've never played those
- 18:34Speaker 2: games before. That's a whole other level. We are a
- 18:36Speaker 2: very lame tandem in a lot of ways.
- 18:39Speaker 5: Yes.
- 18:39Speaker 1: But when it comes to casinos, I also have never
- 18:43Speaker 1: played a table game gambling.
- 18:44Speaker 2: I don't even know how. I'm afraid they would take
- 18:46Speaker 2: advantage of me.
- 18:48Speaker 1: Well, I always feel like it would be intimidating. You
- 18:50Speaker 1: get a bunch of people that are really, like, legit–
- 18:54Speaker 1: the dealer, but Marvin says they talk you through it,
- 18:57Speaker 1: but I have never done that before. Roulette seems okay, right?
- 19:01Speaker 1: You just put a chip down. On a color, a number,
- 19:04Speaker 1: odds or evens. But the card games intimidate me, man.
- 19:08Speaker 2: Hell, yesterday when the guy walked up to my car,
- 19:10Speaker 2: the valet, I thought he was taking my.
- 19:11Speaker 1: Car from me. Bone ain't used to this high class.
- 19:14Speaker 2: No, I'm not. But I could get used to it.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Oh, man.
- 19:17Speaker 2: Because I'm going to get a player's card. And that's
- 19:19Speaker 2: a whole other level.
- 19:19Speaker 1: Get there, baby. Get there. All right.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Showtime just walking around winning stuff.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Let's talk to our next. I think he made more
- 19:27Speaker 1: money than we have this show. I start thinking about it.
- 19:30Speaker 2: Damn. Damn, Showtime.
- 19:32Speaker 1: All right, let's bring in our next guest that probably
- 19:35Speaker 1: is ashamed of us. He probably can work the tables
- 19:38Speaker 1: in a casino like no other. I'm thinking Atlantic City
- 19:40Speaker 1: Trips for this dude. He is Zach Gelb. By the way,
- 19:44Speaker 1: he's in the Compass Media Studios. Atlantic City trips for
- 19:47Speaker 1: this dude. He is Zach Gelb. By the way, he's
- 19:50Speaker 1: in the Compass Media Studios for Auburn, Georgia on Saturday
- 19:54Speaker 1: and then on Sunday, that big night game, Cowboys and Packers.
- 19:57Speaker 1: Gelb joins us here on the Mac and Bone Show.
- 19:59Speaker 1: What's up, Gelb?
- 20:00Speaker 2: How you doing, man?
- 20:02Speaker 4: Guys, doing phenomenal. I actually have a quick blackjack story
- 20:06Speaker 4: for you.
- 20:07Speaker 2: The first time I.
- 20:08Speaker 4: I ever played blackjack. I had no clue what I
- 20:10Speaker 4: was doing. I had 19 and the dealer says, what
- 20:14Speaker 4: do you want to do? And I didn't really know
- 20:16Speaker 4: what to do. So I just said, all right, I'll hit.
- 20:18Speaker 4: I ended up getting an ace. This guy who is
- 20:22Speaker 4: about 85 years old looks at me, and he goes, son,
- 20:26Speaker 4: you are the luckiest son of a you-know-what I've ever seen.
- 20:29Speaker 4: You should get up and never play this again.
- 20:31Speaker 1: I didn't listen to him.
- 20:32Speaker 4: I keep on playing, but, you know, we all won.
- 20:35Speaker 4: I wonder if I mess up the table, though, he
- 20:37Speaker 4: probably would have, like, a Tony Soprano character come over
- 20:40Speaker 4: to me and just whack my kneecaps or something like that.
- 20:41Speaker 1: See, that's my fear is I would mess things up
- 20:44Speaker 1: for others, and we'd have hell to pay.
- 20:46Speaker 2: That is hilarious, though. I'm afraid I would get panicky
- 20:49Speaker 2: and go, ah! Hit me. I just freak out out there.
- 20:54Speaker 1: Oh, that's a trip, man. That's awesome, though. So, Gelby,
- 20:56Speaker 1: this Panther game has changed complexion with this Jalen Hurts news.
- 21:02Speaker 1: I mean, Philly's already so banged up, the offensive line,
- 21:05Speaker 1: the skill position, guys. It's now gone from where the
- 21:09Speaker 1: Panthers are one-and-a-half point dogs to open the week to
- 21:11Speaker 1: where they're three-and-a-half point favorites. Do you look at this
- 21:14Speaker 1: game and say, oh, the Panthers have this, or do
- 21:17Speaker 1: you still worry– that the Panthers could get had by
- 21:21Speaker 1: Tanner McKee. How you feel about this?
- 21:23Speaker 4: Two words, killer instinct. That's what I want to see
- 21:27Speaker 4: from the Carolina Panthers this week. Like remember a few
- 21:30Speaker 4: weeks ago when they went up against Cleveland and we
- 21:33Speaker 4: all thought, Oh, they'll definitely be Cleveland. And then we're
- 21:35Speaker 4: sitting there and we're saying, eh, maybe the Panthers aren't
- 21:38Speaker 4: that good. I know that had that game up against
- 21:40Speaker 4: the lions where Bryce young was phenomenal. and they were
- 21:43Speaker 4: able to weather that storm when the Lions looked like
- 21:46Speaker 4: they were going to get back into the football game
- 21:48Speaker 4: and maybe go win it. But I want to see
- 21:50Speaker 4: killer instinct from the Carolina Panthers this week because there
- 21:53Speaker 4: is no doubt about it. With how banged up Philadelphia is,
- 21:56Speaker 4: Lane Johnson retiring, Cam Juergens getting traded, now Jalen Hurts
- 22:01Speaker 4: out with blood clots. With what the Panthers have, and
- 22:03Speaker 4: we're still trying to decipher– Are they just good because
- 22:07Speaker 4: of the NFC South or are they actually good? Well,
- 22:11Speaker 4: good teams find a way to beat up on inferior teams.
- 22:14Speaker 4: And it's wild that we're saying this going into week six,
- 22:17Speaker 4: that the Eagles are an inferior team, but with the
- 22:19Speaker 4: way that they're playing and now starting the key, because
- 22:22Speaker 4: Kurtz is out with the blood clot, this is a
- 22:25Speaker 4: game where the Panthers must just dominate an inferior football team.
- 22:29Speaker 2: No, that's well said. Cause we were, we were trying
- 22:32Speaker 2: to think of the way to describe this game and
- 22:35Speaker 2: Because you can't really say must win based off the
- 22:37Speaker 2: amount of games left. But I think killer instinct.
- 22:40Speaker 4: You've got to have it. There are must wins, can't loses,
- 22:43Speaker 4: and you've got to have it. This is a game
- 22:45Speaker 4: that you've just got to have it.
- 22:47Speaker 2: That's what we were saying.
- 22:48Speaker 1: I like that.
- 22:49Speaker 2: If Bryce maintains, Gelby, this level of play so far. Now, obviously,
- 22:54Speaker 2: he's on a pace for 5,300 yards. That's a little ridiculous.
- 22:58Speaker 2: But just the high level of play to a certain level.
- 23:01Speaker 2: What future contract do you think we're looking at for
- 23:03Speaker 2: Bryce Young?
- 23:04Speaker 4: 55, $ 60 million a year. Like right now he's better
- 23:09Speaker 4: than CJ Stroud right now. He's better than Bo Nix. Um,
- 23:12Speaker 4: I know Trevor Lawrence is getting his damn act together,
- 23:14Speaker 4: but look at the contract that like the two guys
- 23:16Speaker 4: I just mentioned in young and shall, they haven't been paid.
- 23:19Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence has been paid. And I think it's like
- 23:21Speaker 4: $ 55 million a year. Dak Prescott makes $ 60 million a year. Uh,
- 23:26Speaker 4: Bryce young right now is really good. Uh, I still
- 23:29Speaker 4: don't know If he'll ever be elite, I don't know
- 23:32Speaker 4: if I'll ever be top five, but we know this
- 23:35Speaker 4: really good quarterbacks get paid great money. and the career
- 23:38Speaker 4: turnaround of Bryce Young has just been so fun to watch.
- 23:42Speaker 4: We all thought his career was bust when the first
- 23:46Speaker 4: benching happened. Then he came on back, and he was solid.
- 23:49Speaker 4: And then last year, he did some good things. But
- 23:52Speaker 4: this year, what we're seeing from Bryce Young is really spectacular.
- 23:55Speaker 5: You don't got to rush.
- 23:56Speaker 4: You don't got to make a decision right now. That
- 23:58Speaker 4: will be handled in the offseason. But if he keeps
- 24:01Speaker 4: it up, even if he takes a little bit of
- 24:03Speaker 4: a step back, he's getting a $ 55, $ 60 million a
- 24:06Speaker 4: year contract this offseason. Maybe they could convince him to
- 24:09Speaker 4: take a little bit less to try to go help
- 24:12Speaker 4: the rest of the team. But we know throughout the
- 24:14Speaker 4: history of the league, usually these quarterbacks, they don't take
- 24:17Speaker 4: discounts and they get top of the line dollar.
- 24:19Speaker 1: Yeah, Bryce is the nicest guy ever. I would play
- 24:22Speaker 1: on that if I were the Panthers. You know you're
- 24:24Speaker 1: the nicest guy ever, Bryce. Take a little less. Play
- 24:26Speaker 1: for free, Bryce. But I think you're right about that neighborhood.
- 24:29Speaker 1: If he keeps anywhere close to this performance, I agree.
- 24:33Speaker 1: You mentioned Bo Nix. He was the winning quarterback, but
- 24:37Speaker 1: my God, he is getting slandered all over ESPN this morning.
- 24:41Speaker 1: He looks like he's afraid to, he threw three passes
- 24:44Speaker 1: beyond the sticks, Gelby. But then you have Sam Darnold,
- 24:47Speaker 1: who couldn't take advantage of how bad the Denver offense was.
- 24:50Speaker 1: And through those two late game interceptions, neither one of
- 24:53Speaker 1: these teams looks the part of what we thought they
- 24:57Speaker 1: would be, I think. What do you say?
- 24:59Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like the Broncos are last year's version
- 25:02Speaker 4: of the Houston Texans, where they have a phenomenal defense,
- 25:06Speaker 4: and then offensively, it's going to be a painful watch.
- 25:10Speaker 4: That's what they remind me. In Seattle, 3-3, when they
- 25:15Speaker 4: made the comeback last night, you'll think that they'll go
- 25:17Speaker 4: win the game in overtime, and then Sam Darnold turned into...
- 25:20Speaker 4: Dean ghost and getting mono jets version, Sam Darnold, which
- 25:24Speaker 4: I thought that was out of his system with the
- 25:25Speaker 4: way that he played the last two years. Seattle really
- 25:28Speaker 4: misses Kenneth Walker. I know he won the Superbowl MVP
- 25:31Speaker 4: at the time. I didn't think it would be that
- 25:33Speaker 4: big of a loss. And I thought because of running
- 25:36Speaker 4: back by committee in this league, they'll find a way
- 25:38Speaker 4: to replace him. But man, Kenneth Walker has been the
- 25:41Speaker 4: MVP so far of the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs, which
- 25:44Speaker 4: is a wild statement to say when he's playing next
- 25:47Speaker 4: to Patrick Mahomes. But you look at Bo Nix. I
- 25:51Speaker 4: think there's a problem between him and the head coach
- 25:53Speaker 4: because you have Davis Webb call the plays and then
- 25:56Speaker 4: you quickly take that back. Sean's been calling the plays
- 25:59Speaker 4: last night and it just didn't look pretty. I know
- 26:01Speaker 4: he supported the quarterback after the game and the offense.
- 26:04Speaker 4: by saying, hey, it doesn't matter in this league how
- 26:06Speaker 4: you win just as long as you win. But I
- 26:09Speaker 4: will say this. I thought Ryan Fitzpatrick last night after
- 26:12Speaker 4: the game, I am so sick of this guy. You know,
- 26:14Speaker 4: he was not a good quarterback in this league, and
- 26:16Speaker 4: he's sitting there saying his play is disrespectful to quarterbacks. Well, like,
- 26:21Speaker 4: how about your play when you were in the league?
- 26:23Speaker 4: You know, I know that you were like a prop,
- 26:25Speaker 4: and you were basically a dog and pony show, and
- 26:27Speaker 4: everyone loved the Fitz magic, but I remember you being
- 26:29Speaker 4: the quarterback. I'm a Patriot fan, but I remember you
- 26:31Speaker 4: being the quarterback of the Jets and urinating down your
- 26:34Speaker 4: leg in that final game of the season all those
- 26:37Speaker 4: years ago. So enough with this magic stuff. Each and
- 26:40Speaker 4: every Thursday, we got to see him rip his shirt off,
- 26:42Speaker 4: and everyone thinks he's so funny. I find the guy
- 26:44Speaker 4: absolutely insufferable.
- 26:46Speaker 2: No, I'm with you. It's one thing if guys like
- 26:49Speaker 2: Troy Aikman and Kurt Warner and these high-level guys that
- 26:53Speaker 2: are Hall of Famers are analyzing somebody. You're right. Ryan
- 26:58Speaker 2: Fitzpatrick was a cartoon character. What are we doing here
- 27:01Speaker 2: with this guy?
- 27:02Speaker 4: Yeah, and here's the thing. I'm not saying he can't
- 27:04Speaker 4: have an opinion. It's like the three of us are
- 27:07Speaker 4: three bums. We all have opinions. Exactly. There's a certain way,
- 27:10Speaker 4: like Dan Orlovsky is a friend, not a good quarterback
- 27:14Speaker 4: in the NFL, tremendous analyst. But to get on TV
- 27:18Speaker 4: when you're Ryan Fitzpatrick and say it's like disrespectful to
- 27:21Speaker 4: the quarterback position, like, bro, we've seen your tape. So
- 27:25Speaker 4: if that's disrespectful of Bo Nix, then what were you?
- 27:31Speaker 1: He went off too you don't normally hear that about
- 27:35Speaker 1: a winning quarterback that felt almost personal that's going viral
- 27:39Speaker 1: that was extreme real quick Gal before we let you
- 27:42Speaker 1: go the ESPN report is saying what we figured was
- 27:47Speaker 1: the case that it is all but done that college
- 27:50Speaker 1: football will go to a 2014 playoff and they'll have
- 27:53Speaker 1: it in place by next season do you I mean
- 27:57Speaker 1: we hate it do you not like this how do
- 27:59Speaker 1: you feel about.
- 27:59Speaker 4: This Well, it really doesn't matter if I like it
- 28:03Speaker 4: or hate it because college football and just football in
- 28:06Speaker 4: general has this all by the cojones. And they could
- 28:09Speaker 4: literally spit in our faces, sleep with our woman. And
- 28:13Speaker 4: we would still sit on the couch each and every
- 28:14Speaker 4: Saturday and Sunday and be like, yeah, I'm ready to
- 28:16Speaker 4: go to go watch college football.
- 28:18Speaker 1: In the NFL.
- 28:19Speaker 4: Like we're addicted in this society to football. With that
- 28:22Speaker 4: being said, I absolutely despise it. I think it's so unnecessary.
- 28:26Speaker 4: I think it will devalue the regular season. We'll still
- 28:29Speaker 4: watch the regular season games and get all jacked up,
- 28:31Speaker 4: but there is a buffer. But to go to 12
- 28:33Speaker 4: to 24 is just so drastic. But we'll all end
- 28:38Speaker 4: up watching at the end of the day. And, and I,
- 28:41Speaker 4: and like, I just encourage anyone that's like, yeah, this
- 28:44Speaker 4: is awesome. Yeah, this is great. Go look at what
- 28:46Speaker 4: the first round matchups would have been last year. And
- 28:49Speaker 4: I know we've had some bad first round matchups, even
- 28:51Speaker 4: in a 14 format, but go back and look at
- 28:54Speaker 4: the first round matchups, what they would have been last
- 28:56Speaker 4: year in a 2014 format. And please, I beg someone
- 28:59Speaker 4: to tell me that they would get excited for more
- 29:01Speaker 4: than two matchups because even just getting to one or
- 29:04Speaker 4: two is difficult. It is ridiculous. The other thing I
- 29:07Speaker 4: don't want to hear because, hey, teams 13 and 14
- 29:10Speaker 4: in the 12 team format, all we hear about them
- 29:12Speaker 4: is bitching. If someone's going to bitch, that's team 25
- 29:15Speaker 4: or 26. Just shut the bleep up because you can't
- 29:18Speaker 4: make it in a 2014 format. I don't want to
- 29:21Speaker 4: hear about a four loss SEC team. Oh, we should
- 29:23Speaker 4: have got it. No nonsense. I don't want to hear that.
- 29:25Speaker 1: 100%. You know all it is, Gelby, is these schools
- 29:30Speaker 1: now have to ask their boosters for so much dang
- 29:33Speaker 1: money to pay these players or to pay buyouts. These
- 29:37Speaker 1: boosters want something in return. so they want to be
- 29:40Speaker 1: able to say, hey, look, our school went to the playoff.
- 29:43Speaker 1: But at some point, don't the boosters say, I don't
- 29:46Speaker 1: give a damn. We lost by 36 in the first
- 29:49Speaker 1: round of a 2014 playoff. I ain't giving my money
- 29:52Speaker 1: for that. I don't know, man.
- 29:54Speaker 4: By the way, guys. I think this is our Bryce
- 29:57Speaker 4: young season. Like, I think this is either the fourth
- 30:00Speaker 4: or fifth year I've done this show. And at times
- 30:02Speaker 4: we've been contentious at times you've hung up the phone
- 30:05Speaker 4: on me. I don't know about you guys, but the
- 30:07Speaker 4: synergy and the chemistry through the first five, six weeks,
- 30:10Speaker 4: I'm like Bryce young in the pocket, just delivering touchdown
- 30:13Speaker 4: after touchdown, after touchdown, Mac is like Petero McMillan. And
- 30:17Speaker 4: I guess bones like Cuba Hubbard. There you go, baby.
- 30:20Speaker 1: Not Canadian, though.
- 30:21Speaker 4: I get Hubbard any time touchdown this week. I need
- 30:23Speaker 4: him to get in the end zone, all right? All right.
- 30:25Speaker 2: Now, you said college football, like, it could sleep with
- 30:28Speaker 2: our women and we're cool with that. It would actually
- 30:30Speaker 2: free up some time, though, wouldn't it, if college football
- 30:32Speaker 2: took some off our plate?
- 30:33Speaker 1: They did that, and we just watched more football.
- 30:35Speaker 2: Exactly. It's not a bad idea to go.
- 30:37Speaker 4: I really hope my girlfriend and her family isn't listening
- 30:39Speaker 4: to this segment.
- 30:41Speaker 5: I know.
- 30:41Speaker 4: They do have a home in North Carolina, but I
- 30:44Speaker 4: will say this.
- 30:45Speaker 2: You made sense, though.
- 30:47Speaker 4: I will actually be able to watch more football if
- 30:50Speaker 4: college football did sleep with my guy.
- 30:52Speaker 2: I know.
- 30:52Speaker 1: That's the point. That's the point. I don't want Mrs.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Mack to have heard that either, but there's a point there.
- 30:57Speaker 4: You know, Nebraska's playing Indiana. Hey, maybe we should go
- 31:00Speaker 4: around Central Park for a walk.
- 31:02Speaker 2: How about.
- 31:04Speaker 4: No?
- 31:05Speaker 1: Galby, we love it, man. That was great stuff. Have
- 31:08Speaker 1: a good weekend. We'll talk to you next week.
- 31:11Speaker 4: You got it, guys. Don't hit on 18 or 19,
- 31:13Speaker 4: all right, if you play blackjack.
- 31:15Speaker 1: There you go. I wrote that down.
- 31:16Speaker 2: That's a hell of a tip. Write that down, Bo.
- 31:18Speaker 2: We're going to do Picante next segment. Okay, so when
- 31:21Speaker 2: we come back, we'll do Picante's picks. Due to time constraints,
- 31:23Speaker 2: Picante's next segment. Let's do it, man. A lot of
- 31:25Speaker 2: people want to know. Bo, you probably want to know
- 31:27Speaker 2: when you go to that bed in kiosk. You probably
- 31:29Speaker 2: want to know. What are Picante's picks? When I walk
- 31:31Speaker 2: two feet over here?
- 31:32Speaker 1: Play the Picante parlay, baby. All right? Those things could
- 31:36Speaker 1: win you some cash. When we come back, what are
- 31:38Speaker 1: Picante's picks? We'll wrap it up. We'll take one more
- 31:41Speaker 1: look at the text line. We'll get you ready for
- 31:43Speaker 1: a big football weekend. We're live from Harrah's Cherokee Casino
- 31:47Speaker 1: and Resort, Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNC.
- 32:13Speaker 1: Coming down the homestretch here of our broadcast live from
- 32:16Speaker 1: Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort. I heard KB and Fitty here.
- 32:20Speaker 1: I heard Wes and Walker here just raving about it.
- 32:23Speaker 1: We now can do the raving, too. We have experienced it.
- 32:26Speaker 1: And we both talked about yesterday how this place must
- 32:30Speaker 1: be awesome for March Madness. Like that first weekend of
- 32:33Speaker 1: the tournament bunk, to be here with a bunch of dudes, man.
- 32:37Speaker 2: Like, it could be a blast. Yeah, you could bring
- 32:39Speaker 2: family here. Kids have their– there's arcades and there's bowling
- 32:43Speaker 2: and there's live concerts here all the time. Even if
- 32:46Speaker 2: you're not the biggest gambler, just watch it on the
- 32:49Speaker 2: TV setup that they have. It's an incredible place. As
- 32:52Speaker 2: a matter of fact, my back hurts right now. I
- 32:55Speaker 2: don't think I can get up off this couch.
- 32:58Speaker 1: You're going to need to stay there for a while.
- 33:00Speaker 2: Yeah, if you could actually– Marvin, could you move that
- 33:03Speaker 2: kiosk a little closer to me right now?
- 33:04Speaker 1: I'd like to pull it up right next to you
- 33:06Speaker 1: right there. Don't even have to get up.
- 33:08Speaker 2: Can you get a Caesar Sportsbook kiosk at home like that?
- 33:10Speaker 2: Because I would really use that. The fan cave is cool, man.
- 33:14Speaker 2: It's right here adjacent.
- 33:16Speaker 1: To the sportsbook. The sportsbook is cool.
- 33:17Speaker 2: Although I've seen a little bit too much. The TV
- 33:19Speaker 2: is really big. I put a video up. That team
- 33:21Speaker 2: on WFNZ. Rex Ryan coming up on my screen was
- 33:24Speaker 2: a little much, though.
- 33:25Speaker 1: You didn't need to see his head that giant.
- 33:27Speaker 2: That close to you. And we've got Picante, right?
- 33:29Speaker 1: Rex was so close that he was admiring your feet, Bone.
- 33:32Speaker 1: That's how close he was on a big screen TV.
- 33:35Speaker 1: All right, so we got Picante. It's time for Picante's picks, everybody,
- 33:41Speaker 1: as we ramp this thing down. Let's see what he's
- 33:43Speaker 1: going with. 2-2 last week. Had a winning week the
- 33:46Speaker 1: week before. But Picante believes Bone. He's getting a dub
- 33:52Speaker 1: this week, so let's see what he's got. Picante, what's
- 33:54Speaker 1: going on, man?
- 33:55Speaker 2: How you doing?
- 33:56Speaker 5: Hey, guys. Welcome back. Welcome to week seven, man. We're
- 33:59Speaker 5: ready right now.
- 34:00Speaker 1: It's time, baby. You feeling good about these picks, Picante?
- 34:04Speaker 5: I'm feeling great right now. And you guys in Cherokee,
- 34:07Speaker 5: it gave me the boost that I needed it.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Oh, okay.
- 34:09Speaker 2: That's what we're looking for. Picante, they're going to raise
- 34:11Speaker 2: your jersey to the rafters here at some point.
- 34:14Speaker 4: Hey, I wanted to make a comment.
- 34:17Speaker 5: Somebody say that Ingles– It was like Wegman. That is nuts.
- 34:21Speaker 5: That's crazy.
- 34:22Speaker 2: Oh, you got grocery stores. You got grocery store takes now.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Is Ingles not?
- 34:26Speaker 5: It's a texture or something. Dude, Wegman is like Whole
- 34:31Speaker 5: Foods having a baby with Trader Joe's. Wegman is something else.
- 34:36Speaker 1: What's Ingles then?
- 34:37Speaker 2: This is your passion.
- 34:38Speaker 1: Because I've never even been to an Ingles. Is Ingles
- 34:40Speaker 1: not like that? It's not upscale like that?
- 34:43Speaker 5: No, no, no. Ingles is more like two food lions together.
- 34:51Speaker 2: Hey, Picante, I don't mean to pry. Two food lines together. Picante,
- 34:53Speaker 2: I don't mean to pry. Do you have your picks?
- 34:56Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sorry.
- 34:57Speaker 1: Bone, you didn't want his grocery store picks?
- 34:58Speaker 2: Well, we're running out of time here, Pete.
- 35:00Speaker 1: All right.
- 35:01Speaker 5: Okay, I'll do it quick. My first pick will be
- 35:04Speaker 5: Rutgers and Maryland on the over. They both have horrible defense, horrible.
- 35:10Speaker 5: And I think KJ Dolph is going to go off.
- 35:13Speaker 5: I mean, he should be in another team, but. He's
- 35:16Speaker 5: a great wide receiver. So Rodgers over 55 and a half.
- 35:21Speaker 2: Okay.
- 35:21Speaker 1: Okay.
- 35:22Speaker 5: My second pick will be Badgers plus two and a half.
- 35:28Speaker 5: No Nico, no offense. It's a very easy win for
- 35:31Speaker 5: the Badgers. They've been playing really good after that loss
- 35:35Speaker 5: against the Notre Dame. So I'm very comfortable with the Badgers.
- 35:39Speaker 1: I can definitely see it.
- 35:40Speaker 5: Two and a half. And my third one, which I'm 7-2, actually,
- 35:45Speaker 5: on my overs. So my third one will be an
- 35:49Speaker 5: over to the moon, Ole Miss versus Missouri.
- 35:54Speaker 1: I love that.
- 35:55Speaker 5: I like that game over because it's like an application
- 35:58Speaker 5: for the playoff. So they're going to go at it.
- 36:02Speaker 5: And Ole Miss defense is not good, man. It's like
- 36:05Speaker 5: week seven. If you're not figuring it out for now,
- 36:07Speaker 5: that's it.
- 36:07Speaker 4: You're done.
- 36:08Speaker 5: 100%.
- 36:09Speaker 1: What's the number on that for overs?
- 36:11Speaker 5: Oh, I'm sorry. 58 and a half. 58 and a half.
- 36:15Speaker 1: I like it. I like it. And Picante's overs, baby.
- 36:18Speaker 2: How about that?
- 36:19Speaker 5: Thank you, guys.
- 36:20Speaker 2: They've been paying mortgages for Picante. On Instagram. At the
- 36:24Speaker 2: Picante pics on Instagram. P-I-K-A-N-T-E. Also, a guy wants to
- 36:30Speaker 2: fight you at Ingles. So, good luck with that.
- 36:32Speaker 1: What's going on with that? Ingles slander?
- 36:34Speaker 2: Yeah, people aren't happy with it. Yeah, there are some people.
- 36:36Speaker 2: They want him to stick to his picks and not
- 36:38Speaker 2: other takes. Miss Sweet Cheeks says you're spot on about Ingles. Uh-oh. Interesting.
- 36:42Speaker 1: Smitty City says Ingles has way better food than Food Lion.
- 36:45Speaker 1: Way nicer than Food Lion. All right.
- 36:48Speaker 4: No, no, no.
- 36:49Speaker 5: Wait, wait, wait. Ingles is better than Food Lion. I'm
- 36:51Speaker 5: just being funny. But compared to Wegman, that is just absurd.
- 36:57Speaker 5: It's insane.
- 36:58Speaker 1: Okay.
- 36:58Speaker 5: You're comparing Quick Trip to Buc-ee's. You know what I mean?
- 37:03Speaker 5: Quick Trip is good, but it's not Buc-ee's.
- 37:05Speaker 1: Okay.
- 37:06Speaker 2: Picks and grocery content. This man does it all.
- 37:08Speaker 1: Picante, you versatile, baby. You are versatile. Willie P's got
- 37:12Speaker 1: your back, says Ingles is mid, says Willie P. Thank you.
- 37:15Speaker 5: Thank you, Willie P.
- 37:17Speaker 1: All right, Picante, good luck on those picks, baby.
- 37:20Speaker 5: Yeah, let's go. I got you, bro.
- 37:22Speaker 1: There you go.
- 37:23Speaker 2: Can I say something? With the picks. I've been really,
- 37:26Speaker 2: really good lately, although last Friday I didn't do as well.
- 37:30Speaker 2: I went against– we were texting, and I went against him. Yeah.
- 37:32Speaker 2: And he warned me, and I said, what does this
- 37:34Speaker 2: contact know that I don't know? And I lost because
- 37:37Speaker 2: I went against him. Oh, really? Yeah. Okay, so don't
- 37:40Speaker 2: you dare. I thought Washington was going to beat– Washington, Iowa,
- 37:43Speaker 2: I think it was.
- 37:43Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 37:44Speaker 2: He said I was going to smoke him. And they did.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 37:47Speaker 2: I went against him, and I got– I'm a scrub.
- 37:50Speaker 2: I'm a scrub compared to this man.
- 37:51Speaker 1: That's why you've got to play the Pecante Parlay here
- 37:53Speaker 1: at Harris, man. Get some money on that. His overs
- 37:55Speaker 1: are 7-2. I like that little nugget that he gave
- 37:58Speaker 1: us there.
- 37:59Speaker 2: Oh, he's got all the stats.
- 38:00Speaker 1: So ignore his– he is pretty good on the overs
- 38:02Speaker 1: looking back at it, and he loves himself an over.
- 38:04Speaker 2: He didn't do Oklahoma State this week, though, did he?
- 38:06Speaker 2: Usually that's one of his picks.
- 38:07Speaker 5: No.
- 38:08Speaker 1: Why didn't he go over Oklahoma State-Houston? I could see
- 38:10Speaker 1: that being an over.
- 38:11Speaker 2: He may. I mean, he does 50,000 picks. That's true.
- 38:13Speaker 1: That is true.
- 38:14Speaker 2: Anyway, he's a fun dude, man. I've had the time
- 38:17Speaker 2: of my life today, and I owe it all to you, honestly.
- 38:20Speaker 1: All right. Well, don't go put baby in the corner
- 38:23Speaker 1: while you're at it, all right, man? Anyway, yeah, we
- 38:25Speaker 1: had fun here. This is an awesome spot, and I
- 38:27Speaker 1: hope we did our part to kind of get the
- 38:28Speaker 1: word out and let you all know. This is worth
- 38:30Speaker 1: the three-hour trip from Charlotte to come over here and
- 38:33Speaker 1: hang out. The only complaint we have is that they
- 38:36Speaker 1: put us in the Atlanta room, Bo. Hawks, Braves gear.
- 38:39Speaker 1: We need a Charlotte room. I'm telling you right now.
- 38:42Speaker 2: There's a jersey next door to us, Panthers.
- 38:44Speaker 1: Panthers?
- 38:45Speaker 2: We got it?
- 38:45Speaker 1: Okay.
- 38:46Speaker 2: Next to a Falcons. Oh, no.

- 38:52Speaker 1: maybe bring some Charlotte stuff with us. next time all
