WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.560 Joining us now is our good friend Will Vandervoyd. You can find us work 2 00:00:02.560 --> 00:00:06.799 at the Clemson Insider at Steeler Will on Twitter, and he's here to talk 3 00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:10.240 about, among other things, Clemson men's basketball. Will welcome back to the 4 00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:14.119 show, my friend. Hey guys, how y'all doing today? We are 5 00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:17.760 doing well. We'll get to the Steelers in a little bits. As customary 6 00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:20.199 on this show, we always talk a little Steelers football with you. They've 7 00:00:20.199 --> 00:00:23.600 made some changes here, albeit some I don't think you're too happy with. 8 00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:27.480 But we'll get your video in a little bit. Follow you. Am I 9 00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:31.440 ever happy? That's right? No, you're not there, You're not have 10 00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:34.880 that last night, man, the second win all time in Chapel Hill for 11 00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.520 Clemson. And it's been such an up and down past few weeks, in 12 00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:41.960 fact, a month or so for this Clemson team, this roller coaster wins, 13 00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.479 loss, win, loss, and they finally break through a Chapel Hill 14 00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:48.000 again with a big win over the Tar Hills last night. Just your initial 15 00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:53.159 impressions of what went down last night in the Dean Dome, Yeah, that 16 00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:57.079 was that was a that was something else. You know. I'm watching the 17 00:00:57.119 --> 00:01:00.039 game and just kind of like, when's it gonna have when's the run? 18 00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:03.040 This has been fun, but you know, when's it? You know, 19 00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:07.359 we've all been there, you know, I mean I've been there a lot. 20 00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:11.359 You know. Again, I wasn't at the game this year because it 21 00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:15.120 was on a Tuesday night. Thank you ESPN. Always appreciate these big games 22 00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:19.920 putting on Tuesday nights. But I wasn't able to make it for a traveling 23 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:23.680 standpoint. So that's a little disappointing because they won again. And so basically 24 00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:27.920 what I'm trying to say is I'm still like oer and eleven all time and 25 00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:34.879 at the Clinton's got two wins without me. But you know, you know, 26 00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:40.040 I was happy for coach brown Ll and his staff and his players. 27 00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:44.280 You know, that's a hard place to go win basketball game, especially with 28 00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:47.640 them coming off such a big win. You you know, and I know 29 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.120 a lot of people saying, well, North Carolina Coffee had to let down 30 00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:53.719 after their big win. But you got to give Clempson credit because Clemson had 31 00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:59.959 a disappointing loss at home where you know, that was a game against Virginia 32 00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:02.239 that they had a chance to win, and you can argue maybe they should 33 00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:06.400 have won it. They would have done a couple other things better, and 34 00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.240 so that was a difficult loss to come off of. And to know you're 35 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.360 going on the road to a place where you were one and sixty all time 36 00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:16.479 as a program. You know, that's hard to get your team to say, 37 00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.680 hey, look, guys, we can win this game. We're just 38 00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:22.960 as good, if not better than they are. And I thought Brian now 39 00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:28.919 did a good job having his team mentally prepared to play that game and find 40 00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:30.719 ways during the game to win. And the thing that impressed me the most, 41 00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.599 guys about last night was after North Carolina tied it seventy to seventy. 42 00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.960 And let's be honest, Clemson fans out there, you all thought it when 43 00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:42.479 they tied it at seventy, like here it goes, North Carolina's gonna win 44 00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:46.759 now. But instead Clemson went on a seventy to nothing run at that point 45 00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:50.800 and took control of the game again, and they went wired to wire, 46 00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:54.400 guys, without ever trailing in the game. Carolina. That's never happened never. 47 00:02:55.639 --> 00:03:00.960 That's crazy. Great job by coach Brandell on them, that's awesome. 48 00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.719 Look, if you're a Clemson fan, obviously we got another big one coming 49 00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:07.599 up this weekend. We'll talk about in a minute. Against Syracuse a bit 50 00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:09.159 of a homecoming for Joe Girard. That's going to be fun to watch, 51 00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:14.000 but it's kind of a win. I felt like they needed to have will 52 00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:17.080 And it's not just from the bubble watch standpoint, the net rankings, all 53 00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.680 of that that goes into and just from a confidence standpoint, How vital was 54 00:03:21.719 --> 00:03:23.599 it for this team to break? I don't want to see a losing street 55 00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:27.800 because they had won a few, lost a few, but they're so talented 56 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.879 they were expected to be better than this by now, and I'm sure there's 57 00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.479 been frustration about that. How vital was that to get their confidence back up 58 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:38.560 heading into the rest of conference play here, Well, it's big, because 59 00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:43.400 guys, let's be honest. Now, this next stretch for Clemson, these 60 00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:47.759 last nine games, this is the stretch that's easier on clemson schedule. This 61 00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:52.280 is the stretch that everybody was saying, you know, if Clemson can survive 62 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:55.560 that first eleven games where they got you know, they got to play Duke 63 00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:00.159 and North Kiss the hardest. Clinson's first eleven games are the hardest in the 64 00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.639 ACC hands down. You know, when you look at who they played, 65 00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:08.719 and the back half of the schedule. You know, it's easier, It's 66 00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:11.400 much easier. Now, you still got to go out and play well. 67 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:14.039 You still got to go out and make shots because you're still playing in the 68 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:17.480 ACC and anybody can be in anybody in an even given day. But Clemtson's 69 00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:23.079 gonna be favored and probably every single one of these games. Maybe wake Forest 70 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.360 will be favored to be Clemson at the end of the regular season, but 71 00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:30.199 other than that, I think Clinton's gonna be favored in every game. So 72 00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:33.480 now you got an opportunity to really get a string of wins going and to 73 00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:36.560 build that momentum back that you had earlier in the year and put yourself in 74 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:41.879 position to be a higher seed. You know, I think right now they 75 00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:45.560 are a number six seed in some bracketology reports and stuff like that. They're 76 00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:49.240 gonna have a chance to move up and get some wins and get some confidence 77 00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:55.199 going now. So this win was big for a lot of reasons. And 78 00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:57.920 now that you know you went on the road and won at North Carolina, 79 00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:00.839 now you feel like you know you can beat any anywhere. And guys, 80 00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:05.759 look between look, we all know Clemson beat Duke Okay, we know they 81 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:10.000 did. Yes, I mean we we know what happened at the end of 82 00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:12.759 the game. Oh yeah, Clempson was the better team that day. There's 83 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:15.560 no doubt in my mind about that. If Clemson Clympson's gonna get a chance 84 00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:19.199 to make me play Duke and or North Carolina on a neutral tournament field, 85 00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.439 on a neutral court here in the a SEC tournament, yep. And guy, 86 00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:27.639 I think Clemson has everybody's a good chance to beat anybody. And I'm 87 00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:30.639 not saying they're gonna win the AEC tournament, but this might be the best 88 00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:35.759 chance they've had to win the a SEC Tournament probably in the last thirty plus 89 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:39.439 years, in my opinion. I mean, you know, I'm going back 90 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:43.040 to Eldon Champbell and Dell Davis the last time a Clemson team probably had this 91 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.360 good a chance to win an ACC tournament. I think so too. And 92 00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:50.079 you know where seasons Will Vandervert joins us here from the Clemson Insider. It's 93 00:05:50.120 --> 00:05:54.439 it's this way in the NFL too, like on a smaller scale in terms 94 00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.519 of the schedule size, but like the same thing we were talking about with 95 00:05:57.560 --> 00:05:59.399 the Bills, they were dead in the water. The same thing with the 96 00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:01.439 Chiefs, so much of what Clemson's going through, I think right now, 97 00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:04.199 it's just from a talent perspective, is a lot like that. They had 98 00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:08.360 some stumbles here, and now you go into a stretch where you're fifteen and 99 00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:11.879 seven, you're getting back on to the winning ways and conference play here, 100 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:15.040 You've got some damn good wins on your resume so far. That's South Carolina 101 00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:17.160 wins looking a lot better by the day, by the way, in terms 102 00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.879 of where they're climbing. So I think it's kind of like that for Clemson. 103 00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:24.720 I don't foresee this team missing the tournament, and I don't foresee this 104 00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:27.720 team being a one and done in the tournament. I know a couple of 105 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:30.800 years ago what happened against Rutgers, but your thoughts on that, I mean, 106 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:33.000 I think this team has enough talent, as you mentioned, to make 107 00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:36.279 that kind of run. I really do. Yeah, look at it this 108 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:42.319 way. I mean, Clemson's beat the two teams that lead the SEC right 109 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:46.000 now is Alabama and South Carolina, and Clemson's got wins against both of them, 110 00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:49.800 and one of them was on the road against Alabama, so you know, 111 00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:57.240 they know they can play elite level basketball. And they just beat the 112 00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:00.480 number three team in the country last night, not like they beat a team 113 00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.519 who was like barely five hundred North Carolina team or no, they beat the 114 00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:09.480 number three team on the country in the country. Is that the first time 115 00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:12.600 since seventy six? Is that what I saw in nineteen seventy six that happened. 116 00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:15.399 That's first time since nineth that they've won a true road game. Now 117 00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:19.560 they beat Kentucky number two Kentucky back in the tournament, back in the nineteen 118 00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:24.600 ninety six I believe ninety five or ninety six, But that's the first time 119 00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:28.519 they won a true road game against a top you know, a team ranked 120 00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.720 that high. So you know, yes, to answer your question, this 121 00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:35.720 team has a chance to go on a run and really build some confidence going 122 00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:40.879 into the postseason. And this is a darn good basketball team. They got 123 00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:45.879 all the pieces. They're not they're not as good defensively as they normally are 124 00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:50.199 for Brad Brownell, but he's they're better offensively and they can still play good 125 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:55.279 defense as we saw last night, as we saw against Virginia, they can 126 00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:59.079 play defense, you know, so that they're good enough to play defense, 127 00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:01.720 and they shoot the ball lights out. That's why they have a chance to 128 00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:05.519 really make a run. I think, especially if they get the right matchups. 129 00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:09.040 And one thing I'll tell you, because of the mergence of Ian Shefflin, 130 00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:16.759 Clemson is like they're more physical inside than people think they are, even 131 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:18.600 I think more physical than Brad thinks they are. Because when you hear other 132 00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:22.959 coaches talk about Clemson, when you hear Tony Bennett talk about him, when 133 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.959 you hear you know John Shire talking about him, they both talk about how 134 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:35.360 physical they are and how tough it is for their team to beat cumpson inside. 135 00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.559 And I think that gives Clemson another element. And now what you hope 136 00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.919 guys, and you saw it last night with Chase Hunter. He really showed 137 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.960 more aggressiveness last night. He was good with the basketball. He took care 138 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:50.840 of the basketball, five assists, one turnover. He only had seven points, 139 00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:54.840 but when he drove the lane, he drove with purpose and that really 140 00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:58.399 allowed things to open up. Of course, making three point shots helped. 141 00:08:58.399 --> 00:09:01.519 Two those are elements they have. They got all the elements in point They 142 00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:07.000 got the point guard that can create shots and create things. They got shooters 143 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:11.279 and Joe Girard that can make threes. And then they got Then they got 144 00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:15.279 PJ. Hall and Ian Shefflin inside that really allows him to play with the 145 00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:18.720 physical brand of basketball that most teams in college basketball don't have. Well, 146 00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:22.879 they got Syracuse coming up this Saturday. That's a twelve pm tip off. 147 00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.840 Of course, the Engles Countdown to tip Off show featuring Yours Truly and Richmond 148 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:30.639 Weaver Trey Fanco comes your way at ten thirty am on ninety two point five. 149 00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:33.919 Weesc shifting years here, will Let's talk Steelers, all right, this 150 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:37.919 team once again entering a vital offseason with a lot of question marks. But 151 00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:41.759 hey, you got your high flying offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Baby, are 152 00:09:41.799 --> 00:09:50.720 you excited? Yeah? No, I'm not excited at all, and I 153 00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:56.519 think most Steeler fans aren't. But like I told you guys in the break 154 00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:00.639 in between, like you know, it's hard to make the Steeler been happy. 155 00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:03.240 Right now. We're a very spoiled fan base and I admit that, 156 00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.639 but you know, I do like that they're going to hire a passing game 157 00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:09.639 coordinator. Uh, They're going to bring in a new wide receivers coach. 158 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:13.679 You know, maybe it's Hines Ward. Let's hope we're all I think a 159 00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:20.480 lot of steel the Nations praying that's the case. I think that's just rumored 160 00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:26.399 and all. But we'll see, yeah, you know, so you know, 161 00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:28.519 we'll see what happens. You know, my whole the whole thing. 162 00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:35.080 The Steelers have the offensive pieces in place. They got the great running game, 163 00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:37.840 they got dynamic wide receivers, they got a tight end that can be 164 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:43.799 a playmaker. Their offensive line is much improved. Defensively, they have all 165 00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.919 the pieces on defense. The only thing they're missing, guys, for being 166 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:50.960 a contender is a quarterback. And you know, we don't know. We 167 00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:54.480 got Kenny Pickett Steel We still don't know because of his injury and we didn't 168 00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:58.279 get to see it. At the end of the year. Mason Rudolph I 169 00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:00.720 thought showed a lot, But I don't think Mason enough. The guy's gonna 170 00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.879 lead you to the super Bowl. So what are they going to do at 171 00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:07.320 quarterback? There's rumors out there that the Steelers could trade that. Dan Rooney 172 00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.720 came on radio show today that he did not he did not rule out trading 173 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.639 for a quarterback. Now, what does that mean? He'd better not be 174 00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:22.559 trading j what or I'm done? It'd be a Panthers type of right there, 175 00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:26.480 Sim McCaffrey off and DJ Moore, let's let's do that. They'll do 176 00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:31.720 it, bull do it. So yeah, what does that mean? You 177 00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:35.200 know, what do they mean by they're gonna they still not closing the door 178 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:39.120 and trading for a quarterback, so you know, we'll see it. Sounds 179 00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:41.879 like the next couple of months are gonna be fun for the Steelers and and 180 00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:43.960 that's fun for the off season. And and look, I can't complain too 181 00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:46.120 much, guys, because a lot of people talk crap about us, but 182 00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:50.000 you know what, we won ten games, we made the playoffs, we 183 00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.000 beat We are five and three against playoff teams, and we are eight and 184 00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:58.080 five against teams with winning records. And people, can you know, shove 185 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:03.799 it up their new know what if they keeping the Steelers did all that? 186 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:09.320 Guys? The Steelers did all that was out their starting quarterback, out their 187 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:15.039 three starting inside life Packers Mika Fitzpatrick was gone for seven games, and they 188 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.120 didn't have their other starting safety for four games. Tell me any team in 189 00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:24.360 the NFL that can handle all those injuries and stuff and still make the playoffs 190 00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:28.240 and win ten games. Mike Tomlin can't I'll tell you that he's always He's 191 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:31.559 always Mike Tomlin's gold man. To be able to do that with all that 192 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.039 and that that stretched down the back half of that season was so impressive. 193 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.879 They had to simplify things a little bit, get back to the running game. 194 00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.840 And I was glad that George Pickens didn't blow a gasket in the last 195 00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:43.320 game of the year in the pouring rain when he had zero targets. I 196 00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:46.559 even heard Dan Orlowski, yeah, stupidly saying, and I like, damn, 197 00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:50.279 but he's up there, like, you gotta get George Pickens a target. 198 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:52.960 I'm like, dude, you get a field goal here, the game's 199 00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:56.120 over. You're I'm throwing the ball on the poor George Pickens. But absolutely, 200 00:12:56.200 --> 00:13:00.159 and I know, and hey, Pickens is gonna get better. And 201 00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:03.039 Mike Tomins a guy. The kid is not. He's not over the top. 202 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:07.639 I don't think he's Antonio Brown over the top. I think they can 203 00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:11.600 work with him and get him. He's a wide receiver. They're all divas, 204 00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:15.320 let's just be honest. Of course they want the ball. Yeah right, 205 00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:16.559 they all want the ball. So it could be worse. We could 206 00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:20.799 be Dallas Cowboys. You know, and I'm doing that for Billy. I 207 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:22.440 know Billy calls the show a lot, so that's that's for him. And 208 00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.960 probably you know, you know, so it could be worse. We could 209 00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:31.320 be the Dallas Cowboys and so you know, we're the Steelers that we find 210 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:33.120 a way to do things. You could be the pan you know what. 211 00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:35.519 No, only it's double whammy with the Panthers because you could be bad like 212 00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:39.559 the Panthers are now and you could always beat the Panthers. Since you guys 213 00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.200 do you guys we have to beat you since ninety six? The curse continues, 214 00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:48.120 Uh, well, well before we continues. I hope, yeah, 215 00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.399 I hope it doesn't, but we'll see what Happenstport joins us here on Game 216 00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:54.600 on. You can find his work at the Clemson Insider. Before we let 217 00:13:54.679 --> 00:13:58.039 you go. I tried to stump Don Munson the other day with this and 218 00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.559 and I was some what's successful? I doubt I'm gonna get you. Can 219 00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.720 you name at least three players that are on the rosters between these two Super 220 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:11.679 Bowl teams this weekend? Three players that are on the roster, Three Clemson 221 00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:16.840 players that are on rosters, three Clemson former Clemson players that are on Super 222 00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:26.080 Bowl rosters this weekend super Bowl rosters. There you go. They don't have 223 00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.480 to be they don't have to be active. They don't have to be active 224 00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:35.039 either, they can Justin Justin Ross is the other two. Yeah, and 225 00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:46.240 uhis ab How about a B initials or a B A B mm hmmm. 226 00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:52.399 What year did he finish? Oh? Yeah, which this show is turning 227 00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:58.320 into quickly clean Farrell Cleveland Farrell, Yes, he done it. Austin Bryant 228 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.279 is also on one of the rosters too. Yeah, Austin Brian is with 229 00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:05.240 San Francisco. So he got picked up. Now that's the true question the 230 00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:13.519 four because Bryan got picked him way started and that would have really threw some 231 00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.960 people off. And you know what, the Raven clearly of course got hurt. 232 00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:20.919 He was having a really good year and got hurt. And that's a 233 00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:22.600 shame because he can think piece. Yeah he was. The forty nine ers 234 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:28.039 were doing. Ray struggled stopping the run, guys, because because Cleveland, 235 00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:31.559 ever since Cleveland's been out of the game, they struggled stopping the run. 236 00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.000 Ye, Kansas City is gonna attack that part. I'm telling you right now. 237 00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:37.200 So by the way, I know you didn't ask me, but I'm 238 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.600 picking the Chiefs to win this game. I was good. I forgot to 239 00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:45.240 ask you. The Kansas City Chiefs will win this game, per will Vandervod 240 00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:48.320 from the Clemson Insider. And you know what, I'm probably gonna go to 241 00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:50.200 the same direction. I'm done betting against Andy Reid and my homes. I 242 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:54.399 just I've done it too many times this year and they've messed up everything for 243 00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.559 me. But hey, we roll on. Uh you're gonna be covering, 244 00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:00.080 of course. So the rest of this Clemson basketball slate, we'll get you 245 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:03.759 in your talk some Clemson football as we close to the spring game.
