Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: This is kind of a little bit of a ramp
- 0:03Speaker 1: down week, I think is the way some might describe it,
- 0:07Speaker 1: because you're kind of ramping down your work week, although
- 0:11Speaker 1: you are geared up for your holiday week, and so
- 0:14Speaker 1: I would just say be careful if you're driving out
- 0:16Speaker 1: of town. I'd be doing that myself. After we have
- 0:21Speaker 1: long worn weekly with coach Sark. Tomorrow night, that's right
- 0:24Speaker 1: night before Thanksgiving, we're still going to record, well, it'll
- 0:30Speaker 1: be recorded, but the show's going to be live on
- 0:33Speaker 1: the Zone because it is the night before Thanksgiving, so
- 0:37Speaker 1: it's being recorded for the network for those radio stations
- 0:40Speaker 1: that still want to run it on Thursday, they may
- 0:41Speaker 1: want to run it on Thanksgiving night, but it will
- 0:44Speaker 1: be live tomorrow night here on the Zone, So live
- 0:50Speaker 1: at six o'clock, and our special guest will be none
- 0:55Speaker 1: other than Michael Griffin. Part of that next Yeah, from
- 1:00Speaker 1: the two thousand and five National championship team. He of
- 1:03Speaker 1: the spectacular interception. It was kind of a game changer,
- 1:06Speaker 1: kind of flipped the momentum in that one. And I'll
- 1:09Speaker 1: played against Sark who was coaching. So that's a fun
- 1:12Speaker 1: little antidote there. Yeah, Sark's kind of getting used to
- 1:16Speaker 1: that deal. Yeah, with guys have played played played against him.
- 1:22Speaker 2: I'm curious, you know, as a player is so focused
- 1:24Speaker 2: on the game, and as the Marl frase from Sark,
- 1:27Speaker 2: you're probably more enamored with yourself and than you are
- 1:30Speaker 2: the other coaches, obviously with Liner and Reggie Bush and
- 1:33Speaker 2: Lindo White and those guys. So I'm curious if any
- 1:36Speaker 2: of the Texas player has had any idea who Steve
- 1:38Speaker 2: Sarkisian was at the time. Now they do, of course,
- 1:40Speaker 2: but who knew at the time that.
- 1:42Speaker 1: I'm willing to bet back then for probably very few
- 1:45Speaker 1: who knew that they'd heard more about Norm Chow sure
- 1:48Speaker 1: the total offensive coordinator than Sark who was the quarterbacks coach.
- 1:51Speaker 1: But twenty years later, yeah, coach, there you go. So
- 1:57Speaker 1: that'll be tomorrow evening six o'clock at the Pluckers the
- 1:59Speaker 1: West Dampus location in Austin. So hope you can be
- 2:03Speaker 1: out there with us. We'll bring the show to you live.
- 2:06Speaker 1: What I started to say is that Linda and I
- 2:08Speaker 1: are leaving right after that to drive up the Dallas

- 2:31Speaker 1: Texas A and M the Cotton Lone Stars showdown from
- 2:36Speaker 1: Kyle Field and College Station. And as we mentioned, last
- 2:39Speaker 1: hour of the coverage begins actually three point thirty with
- 2:42Speaker 1: Long Orange Game Day from the Thompson Hotel.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Did I hear my cards.
- 2:47Speaker 1: During the during the break doing a promotion? That's when
- 2:51Speaker 1: he called, you guys are in the cantina there? He said,
- 2:56Speaker 1: something's under the canteena the Ariba cantina there at the Thompson.
- 3:02Speaker 3: Yes.
- 3:02Speaker 2: So the rooftop cantina at the Thompson Hotel is called
- 3:05Speaker 2: Adiba Abajo okay, which is just that rooftop restaurant in
- 3:11Speaker 2: Bar where we're gonna be on. So again, it's a
- 3:14Speaker 2: fantastic spot. It's gonna be great weather, We're gonna have
- 3:18Speaker 2: some special guests coming on. So excited for that. Excited
- 3:22Speaker 2: to divvy up that, especially after we had Crystal Conte
- 3:24Speaker 2: on this past week at Bevo Boulevard. He still didn't
- 3:29Speaker 2: tell me how I can win Austin's Chamber Austin in
- 3:31Speaker 2: the Year award. So still figuring out if I can
- 3:34Speaker 2: maybe get in the mix on that for twenty twenty five.
- 3:37Speaker 2: But yeah, special guests again, of course, a six thirty
- 3:41Speaker 2: soft kickoff time. I'm sure Craig give the official kickoff time,
- 3:44Speaker 2: but we will be on the air from three three
- 3:46Speaker 2: to five thirty. And again, if you're not going out
- 3:48Speaker 2: to College Station and spending a grand on a ticket,
- 3:50Speaker 2: come out to Adiba Abajo at the Thompson Hotel and
- 3:54Speaker 2: watch Texas in Texas A and M play.
- 3:57Speaker 3: I like how you put that a soft kick all time?
- 4:00Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's not going to be six thirty, which
- 4:05Speaker 1: I guess you're probably used to. I am, I am.
- 4:08Speaker 1: We've had those one hour and twenty minute pregames. We're
- 4:10Speaker 1: about have another one. I think I think I think
- 4:11Speaker 1: the actual kickoff is going to be I think sixty nine.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Oh, I think that's going to be the actual kickoff.
- 4:20Speaker 1: So yeah, an hour and nineteen minutes in the kickoff,
- 4:24Speaker 1: seventy nine minute pre Game Network pre game.
- 4:27Speaker 3: I think is going to be the case on that
- 4:29Speaker 3: is that Herbie and Feller, it is, it is, it's
- 4:33Speaker 3: it's it's the big team. It's funny.
- 4:38Speaker 1: The team that has been calling the Texas games over
- 4:41Speaker 1: the past three weeks, I guess it is is Joe Tessitur,
- 4:45Speaker 1: Jesse Palmer, and Katie George. And I've met Joe Tass
- 4:50Speaker 1: and met Palmer and chatted with him.
- 4:52Speaker 3: Katie.
- 4:52Speaker 1: I've gotten to chatting with a little more of a
- 4:56Speaker 1: because of seeing the team of the past three weeks.
- 4:58Speaker 1: And b she and I were the same flight going
- 5:01Speaker 1: from Fayetteville to Chicago when I did after the Arkansas game.
- 5:06Speaker 1: So when I saw her last Saturday, I said, uh, wow,
- 5:10Speaker 1: look at this continue in the streak. She said, yeah,
- 5:12Speaker 1: the streak ends this week. You got the A team
- 5:15Speaker 1: coming and going into College station. She said, this will
- 5:17Speaker 1: be the end of the line for us this week.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Uh but uh, anyway, Uh that it'll be It'll be
- 5:23Speaker 1: those guys. Uh let's see to the text line. Uh
- 5:28Speaker 1: we're you know Cam mentioned that the guy said a
- 5:31Speaker 1: buddy of mine's mom is one hundred and eight lives
- 5:32Speaker 1: in the bas Drop area.
- 5:33Speaker 3: That's really cool. Somebody said enough for the PPE Talk listen.
- 5:38Speaker 1: It was in inconceivable the fact that it's not going
- 5:41Speaker 1: to be hazardous to your l top in the shower.
- 5:43Speaker 3: Okay, I just want to let you know that. Then
- 5:46Speaker 3: somebody else I'll talk about it.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Awkward conversation the family table at Thanksgiving. That guess about
- 5:51Speaker 1: the Baker Mayfield thing on that So.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Yeah, so it it'd be more awkward than the Rogers
- 5:59Speaker 2: family things give But yeah, I feel like Aaron Rodgers
- 6:03Speaker 2: is very don't even bothered to get with anybody Thanksgiving.
- 6:09Speaker 3: I just have a feeling he's probably going to Pat
- 6:11Speaker 3: McAfee show.
- 6:12Speaker 2: You Honestly, I have a theory, Craig, the only reason
- 6:14Speaker 2: why we even still care about a rod is because
- 6:17Speaker 2: of the Pat McAfee show. If not for him going
- 6:19Speaker 2: on that show, would he still be really relevant? I mean,
- 6:21Speaker 2: I know he's the New York Jets quarterback, but I
- 6:23Speaker 2: feel like him being on that show was able to
- 6:27Speaker 2: give him more media coverage than he deserves because he's
- 6:29Speaker 2: been a bottom ten quarterback in this league.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Yeah, it has been. He definitely looks like he's on
- 6:37Speaker 1: the backside of his career. I think I would rather
- 6:40Speaker 1: have Cooper Rush than Aaron Rodgers. Oh stop, I'm serious.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Stop jokes about Cooper Rush for weeks. Now, now you're
- 6:48Speaker 1: going to say that because you know Cooper Rush.
- 6:54Speaker 2: No, just let's let's look at the stats from last week.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Just let's just look Aaron Rodgers. So the Dets winner
- 7:01Speaker 2: lose last week? I don't even know. They lost to
- 7:03Speaker 2: San Francisco. No, they lost to Indianapolis. Yeah, he threw
- 7:07Speaker 2: for one hundred and eighty four yards, pair of touchdowns,
- 7:10Speaker 2: no interceptions. Okay, now Cooper Rush against the Commanders, Yeah,
- 7:16Speaker 2: got the win, Craig So yeah that come.
- 7:20Speaker 3: On, read the numbers.
- 7:21Speaker 2: The numbers. Two hundred and forty seven passing yards, two touchdowns,
- 7:25Speaker 2: to interceptions.
- 7:26Speaker 3: Okay, all right, rest my case. Okay, you can have
- 7:32Speaker 3: Cooper Rush. Not that I'm want Aaron Rodgers.
- 7:35Speaker 1: All right, comey, got we're gonna talk football of the
- 7:38Speaker 1: high school and college variety. Greg Tepper, managing editor Dave
