1 00:00:04,839 --> 00:00:07,639 Speaker 1: What's up everybody, and welcome to it just means more 2 00:00:07,679 --> 00:00:12,279 football and coffee. I'm Rob Williams. He's Craig McMichael. Don't 3 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,079 miss out on what's coming up this week. We have 4 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:21,079 some really to quote Craig, not exciting things happening this 5 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,920 week in college football, and so we had a lot 6 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,160 to talk about to catch up on what happened last weekend. 7 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:35,479 Big what's nine pm? Dare I ask? What's in the cup? Uh? 8 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:35,960 You know what. 9 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 2: We're keeping it. We're keeping it clean. It was just 10 00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:42,479 water tonight, just trying to stay hydrated for the week. 11 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,759 We've got a busy week of sports at the high 12 00:00:45,759 --> 00:00:47,600 school at the middle school this week, so I've got 13 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,759 I've got a full slate Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, so I'm 14 00:00:50,759 --> 00:00:54,079 making sure we're going to be fully hydrated. More importantly, 15 00:00:54,119 --> 00:00:58,039 my friend you are in upstate South Carolina. How are 16 00:00:58,079 --> 00:01:00,759 you doing? Everybody okay over there? It looks a little 17 00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:03,759 a little bit where you're at, so let us know 18 00:01:03,799 --> 00:01:04,319 you're okay. 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,159 Speaker 1: In the spirit of college football, I just finished off 20 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,400 a nice doctor Pepper zero, So shout out to Quinn 21 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:18,799 yours and the new fans or the new doctor pepper commercials. Yeah, 22 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,560 upstate South Carolina. We are in the recovery stages of 23 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:29,280 Hurricane Aleen, running on a generator right now. I got 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:35,760 maybe refrigerator rolling, no AC, no power. This is day 25 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,640 three of no power. They've estimated that we're going to 26 00:01:40,719 --> 00:01:45,359 run through Friday, the fourth before we get power restored. 27 00:01:45,599 --> 00:01:48,400 I have a giant cedar tree in my yard and 28 00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:50,680 my truck is at the tai yard. So it's been 29 00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:55,000 an eventful weekend with all the fun here. Honestly, though, Craig, 30 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,599 I'm thankful that we're safe. I'm thankful that we're together, 31 00:01:59,359 --> 00:02:04,239 and I'm thankful that we have the generator currently running 32 00:02:04,239 --> 00:02:06,760 to keep our groceries cold. That's That's more than a 33 00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:09,639 lot of people can say. It's catastrophic out here. I've 34 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,560 never seen anything like this in this part of the 35 00:02:11,599 --> 00:02:16,280 country because we're so far from the coast. We're the 36 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,199 cost and we're we're, you know, ten twelve hours from 37 00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:24,719 where this main landfall, and it is just war zone 38 00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:28,719 out there. I've never seen so many trees down. Every 39 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,560 power line that you encounter is pretty much down. So 40 00:02:32,039 --> 00:02:36,039 you know, we're a five minute drive to some restaurants 41 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,039 and stores and gas stations that are getting it back 42 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:49,039 up and rolling resident. It's pretty bleep. But again, waffle 43 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,360 House is of course open, and I heard that Friday 44 00:02:53,719 --> 00:02:56,680 on the on the this the very tip end of 45 00:02:56,759 --> 00:03:00,520 the storm, waffle House has already opened, no power. The 46 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,080 cook was grilling with a flash long sword and they 47 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,719 were taking cash app So waffle House is uh, never 48 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,599 shut down. And that's a true story. That is not 49 00:03:11,719 --> 00:03:14,400 me making up a joke. But it could be much worse. 50 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,759 Western North Carolina is absolutely underwater. Chimney Rock was washed 51 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,039 off the map, and other small towns in that way. 52 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:27,599 So keeping everybody in our thoughts, in prayers and you know, 53 00:03:27,719 --> 00:03:30,120 just sweating out here waiting on the lights to come 54 00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:31,719 back on. Yeah. 55 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,599 Speaker 2: No, a shout out to I know you guys had 56 00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:35,479 service this morning, and and I and I and I 57 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,680 gave you a shout out earlier. We were talking that 58 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,240 I love that you were there for your community and 59 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,280 that you guys still found a way through kind of 60 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,360 like the crazy and everything that was going on, still 61 00:03:48,439 --> 00:03:50,520 get together on Sunday and kind of come together.

So good job 66 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,840 and good job to you guys us for that. 67 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, I can't take any credit, 68 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,120 but definitely you know, appreciate it. And it was cool 69 00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:10,039 to get together for a church service this morning, a 70 00:04:10,039 --> 00:04:13,639 couple hundred people coming together just to just to pray 71 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,680 together and to look for ways to help in the community. 72 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,560 We were able to really make some connections with people 73 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,639 with needs, people who were able to have resources to 74 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,639 help with those needs. So we're continuing to do that, 75 00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:27,839 pouring entire soup kitchens and people with chainsaws and people 76 00:04:27,879 --> 00:04:32,279 with hot water, all the above. So yeah, it was great. 77 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,319 It's it's been good just to be kind of coming 78 00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:39,199 together as a community, no doubt about it. And one 79 00:04:39,199 --> 00:04:43,120 thing that brings us all together in community is what football. 80 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,759 Of course football it is. It is one thing that 81 00:04:46,959 --> 00:04:50,720 in America that we can always bond over. Let's uh, 82 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,319 let's take a look back. We really talked a lot 83 00:04:54,399 --> 00:04:59,399 about Georgia Alabama last week. You and I both took 84 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,360 You and I both took Georgia. 85 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:03,399 Speaker 2: Did that not go well? 86 00:05:04,439 --> 00:05:09,759 Speaker 1: It apparently did not. You know though it turned out 87 00:05:09,759 --> 00:05:12,519 going a little better than and what it did to 88 00:05:12,519 --> 00:05:14,839 start off with, what were your thoughts? I know I 89 00:05:14,879 --> 00:05:17,160 was able to kind of follow along with you via 90 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,000 text and our writer chat and so forth. But yeah, 91 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,920 for the listeners, what was the roller coaster of emotions 92 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,519 from a Georgia perspective? Just covering the team and thinking 93 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,720 about how to put that material together? Of twenty eight nothing, 94 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,199 thirty to seven, Oh my gosh, we have to lead. 95 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,360 What's going on? Ryan Williams snatches it away and up 96 00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:41,120 and down goes to the roller coaster. 97 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,399 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I mean it was a total roller coaster 98 00:05:44,439 --> 00:05:47,800 of emotions. And if I can just offer one piece 99 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,839 of advice to the Georgia Bulldogs when they play in 100 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,319 Alabama the next time, nobody were black. You know, in 101 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:58,399 two thousand and eight, Georgia wore those black uniforms and 102 00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:01,720 they went to their funeral. I think they were also 103 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,680 down about thirty five seven at halftime, and I remember vividly. 104 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,399 I had a little party for the family over and 105 00:06:07,639 --> 00:06:11,040 just was about devastated for that one. You know, Saturday 106 00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:13,680 to night, the dogs running white on the field, but 107 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,920 all the coaching staff had their black on. But you know, 108 00:06:18,439 --> 00:06:22,160 Jalen Milroe, Man, it just took just impressive. I mean 109 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,199 that was my biggest takeaway, you know, doing my halftime 110 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,879 right up. It was a really contra a contrast between 111 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,360 the two quarterbacks. Milroe was almost perfect. I think he 112 00:06:32,399 --> 00:06:36,240 had two incompletions. But I mean whether he was throwing 113 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,360 the ball and whether he was running the ball, he 114 00:06:39,959 --> 00:06:44,040 looked calm, he looked confident, and as I wrote in 115 00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:47,839 the recap last night, he looked like the top top 116 00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:51,240 five pick. You know, you contrast that with Carson Beck 117 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,040 I love. You know what Mike Bobo and Georgia did 118 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,480 in that first drive. You know, they hit Dominic Love 119 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,519 it for a fit fifteen yard first down. They then 120 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,439 take a deep shot down that right sideline. It hits 121 00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:10,079 off Aer Smith's hands. You know, I wrote about it 122 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,399 in the thing, and I truly believe that if Arian 123 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,160 Smith comes down with that ball, does it change the 124 00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:19,639 trajectory of that half in that game where you see 125 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,680 it's like, Okay, cool, it's gonna be a shot shootout. 126 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,279 It's gonna be something similar to like what we saw 127 00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:26,079 a couple of years ago at Alabama Tennessee, where they're 128 00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:29,079 just going to match each other's score for score. Instead, 129 00:07:29,839 --> 00:07:32,720 you know, Georgia basically goes, you know, three downs and 130 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,600 now and Alabama just you know, was rolling in the 131 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,920 first half. I mean, and Georgia look conservative. But the 132 00:07:40,959 --> 00:07:43,439 biggest thing that I took away even you know, I know, 133 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,120 we didn't talk as much to the second half, and 134 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,279 you know, there's some revisionist history here with Georgia with 135 00:07:49,279 --> 00:07:51,079 with you know, when you're looking at social media, you're 136 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,959 looking at the message boards, Georgia fandoms like, oh we 137 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,079 came back, this was great, this was fantastic. I'm gonna 138 00:07:58,079 --> 00:08:03,399 be honest, up until we made it thirty four to 139 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,439 thirty three with about two minutes and change left in 140 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:12,040 that game, that comeback felt like fools goal. It just 141 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,800 something doesn't seem right with the Bulldogs. They are lacking 142 00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:19,800 a playmaker. Aeron Smith made a big play, Dylan Bell 143 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,759 made a big play that they're at the end of 144 00:08:21,759 --> 00:08:24,879 the game. They were trying to force feed love it. 145 00:08:25,519 --> 00:08:28,839 Love It is a nice secondary piece, but Georgia is 146 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,879 just missing that brock Bowers, that Lad mccacky. Who is 147 00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:36,759 that dog that's gonna come up and be there as 148 00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:39,879 that help, that help or also be there as a 149 00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:43,799 safety net. And as much as I love to comeback 150 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,440 in the second half, it just, you know, I'm gonna 151 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,240 be honest, I don't buy. I'm not buying the narrative 152 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,759 that this made Georgia, you know, this top team. They 153 00:08:55,799 --> 00:08:59,679 are flawed. And I say that as I love the Dogs, 154 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,120 but I'm trying to look at this in the most 155 00:09:02,159 --> 00:09:07,720 holistic way possible. They are missing that X factor and 156 00:09:07,759 --> 00:09:11,759 they with road games still at Texas next month, They're 157 00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:14,320 going to play Tennessee at home. You know, I know 158 00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:16,399 Ole miss dropped it. We're going to talk about them 159 00:09:16,399 --> 00:09:18,559 in a bit to Kentucky this weekend, but they have 160 00:09:18,639 --> 00:09:22,039 to also go to Oxford in November. Those are three 161 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:26,639 more games, you know, and right now it's like who 162 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,480 is going to be that X factor, whether it's on 163 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,240 offense or on defense. You know, defensively, they got gashed. 164 00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:36,679 I don't know what it is. Their defensive line is 165 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,559 almost non existent. They have no edge presence. I feel 166 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,600 like every time a team runs to the left hand 167 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:47,279 side the Georgia defensive right hand side, that the defensive end, 168 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,159 the linebacker is getting hooked and there is a big gap. 169 00:09:50,639 --> 00:09:54,000 So I know, I sunt doom and gloom. And this 170 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,879 may be called first ball problems, but I think Georgia 171 00:09:58,039 --> 00:10:01,399 is flawed in twenty twenty four, and I think Alabama 172 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:01,960 exposed that. 173 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: I think that Jalen Milroe is a unicorn of a 174 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,120 quarterback and we didn't want to give him credit for that. 175 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,320 And when I say we, I don't just mean media, 176 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:17,840 I don't just bance. I mean collectively college football universe 177 00:10:18,039 --> 00:10:20,279 over the over the past few years have not wanted 178 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,799 to really hand him the keys to the star that 179 00:10:22,879 --> 00:10:26,559 he is, and he just decided to snatch him. I 180 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,000 think that developing under Kaylyn de boor Is is something 181 00:10:30,039 --> 00:10:32,000 that we kind of predicted was going to be big. 182 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,879 It has been big. He's an elite thrower of the 183 00:10:34,879 --> 00:10:39,799 football deep and he can run like nobody else that 184 00:10:39,799 --> 00:10:43,000 plays this position right now, and so it's been really 185 00:10:43,039 --> 00:10:44,840 special to watch. Do you think Ryan Williams is the 186 00:10:44,879 --> 00:10:46,480 best freshman receiver that we've ever seen? 187 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 2: That kid is impressive. I mean he made a couple 188 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,799 of I mean he made two of those catches last night. 189 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,159 You know, I joked in the writer's chat that one 190 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,480 of them was the prayer at Jordan Harre. I mean 191 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,120 I mean Bryant Denny when you know he caught it 192 00:11:01,159 --> 00:11:05,720 streaking down the field and then he has a dagger. Yeah, 193 00:11:05,799 --> 00:11:08,759 I saw, I saw something funny on Twitter when he 194 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,799 comes down to catch it. You know which time's left 195 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,440 in that game? Two minutes and twenty six seconds, second 196 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,080 and twenty six strikes again for. 197 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:22,159 Speaker 1: A Yeah, Yeah, that's tough. You know, he's credibly he's 198 00:11:22,159 --> 00:11:25,480 incredibly impressive. He has speed. He doesn't look physically imposing 199 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,320 just to look at him, but neither is Devonte Smith. 200 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,240 And he's got a Heisman trophy in his cabinet, so 201 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,080 you know, it doesn't always take the body tight necessarily. 202 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,159 I think Ryan Williams is something special, and I think 203 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,360 that Kaitlyn de Borr and Alabama are on a fast 204 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,919 track and making a splash in the playoffs. Craig, who's the. 205 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 2: Best team in the SEC? Best team in the SEC? I 206 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,759 think it's gonna I'm gonna say it's either gonna be 207 00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:03,159 Alabama or Texas. That may be our SEC championship. But 208 00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:06,519 but here here's the deal. I think you make strong 209 00:12:06,639 --> 00:12:09,600 arguments for both of them. Caitlin de bores showed that 210 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,799 he's the hell of the coach on on Saturday Night. 211 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,279 But you know, I'm not going to discount start Sorks 212 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,600 with out his top two running backs, his heisman, you know, 213 00:12:22,919 --> 00:12:27,320 top top ten quarterback when yours is out and he's 214 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,960 brought our spanning it and I know our spanning special. 215 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,000 But dudes living up to the damn hype and well, yeah. 216 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: That was kind of that was kind of what I 217 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,559 was hoping for with the segue. I mean, twenty six 218 00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:41,960 to thirty one or whatever it was is ridiculous. I 219 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,559 know it's Mississippi State, and honestly, to be fair, Misispi 220 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,000 State put up a little more of a fight than 221 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,000 I thought they would. Does that make me question Texas 222 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:50,399 or maybe there's just a little bit of fight in 223 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,679 the dogs because you know, they went down to Florida 224 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,759 last week. They're down to quarterback. It looks it looks 225 00:12:57,759 --> 00:13:00,600 really doom and gloom and Startville. So I think maybe 226 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,279 they just mustered a little bit of a punch that 227 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:08,039 they could they could throw. But Texas looks legit. I'm 228 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:12,720 looking forward to the potential of the Texas Alabama matchup 229 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,440 somewhere down the road in the SEC Championship, maybe in 230 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:15,960 the playoffs. 231 00:13:16,759 --> 00:13:20,799 Speaker 2: So I did. I did so, I did see. I 232 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,519 don't know if it was barstool Horns or somebody for 233 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,399 Texas posted, Hey, Georgia, this is how you beat Alabama. 234 00:13:28,159 --> 00:13:30,759 Just loosen. They were showing highlights the last year's game. 235 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,799 So I thought that I thought that was funny. But 236 00:13:32,799 --> 00:13:34,720 but but to be honest, you know, I think you 237 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,240 look at what Texas is doing, you look at what 238 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:42,480 Alabama's doing. They looked legit. I mean, defensively, you just 239 00:13:42,519 --> 00:13:44,799 got to get a couple of steps. They have the 240 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,240 offense to kind of kind of kind of do what 241 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,080 do do what they're supposed to do. So to me, 242 00:13:49,159 --> 00:13:51,879 those are the two that everyone's gonna be chasing right now. 243 00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:54,399 And I think Georgia's you know, three or four, three 244 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,799 or four in that pack, depending on what happens with Tennessee. 245 00:13:57,759 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: All right, so we talked about George Alabam. We we 246 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,320 touched on Texas. Now, let's flight over to Oxford for 247 00:14:04,399 --> 00:14:07,559 just a second. Mark stoops and the Cats get their 248 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,440 biggest road wins since the seventies. What's going on with 249 00:14:11,519 --> 00:14:14,159 the lane train? He seems to be pretty even keel 250 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:20,399 about it. Jackson Dark seemed less heisman worthy. And more 251 00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:25,080 early Jackson dark days in this game. To me, what 252 00:14:25,159 --> 00:14:27,679 were your thoughts? A little bit of a miracle for 253 00:14:27,799 --> 00:14:31,000 the touchdown for Kentucky, a lucky a lucky bounce. But 254 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,360 that's what it takes in a big upset, and if 255 00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:35,279 you're old miss, you can't put yourself in that's the. 256 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 2: Way they win big games. I mean, think about when 257 00:14:37,159 --> 00:14:39,279 they act off Lusu, you know all those years ago. 258 00:14:39,639 --> 00:14:44,120 Absolutely remember remember the game's always that big one. 259 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: But if you're the Rebels, you can't put yourself in 260 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,720 the position to be to have it be a one 261 00:14:48,759 --> 00:14:51,720 score game when you're playing a team that, let's face it, 262 00:14:51,919 --> 00:14:55,279 all of us know is inferior from a talent standpoint. 263 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,159 Speaker 2: They are, But I think what we're his head is 264 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,720 the exact same thing. Lane Kiffen was worried about last 265 00:15:03,799 --> 00:15:08,000 year posts that Georgia loss when Georgia beat him fifty one, fourteen, 266 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,840 fifty one, whatever it was. You know, Georgian to handle him. 267 00:15:12,639 --> 00:15:17,759 A strong defensive front disrupts that offense. Lane's offense and 268 00:15:18,039 --> 00:15:21,799 you know, Charlie Weis Junior's offense works on tempo, It 269 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,159 works on getting the ball out quickly, it works on 270 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,200 you know on spreading that field. When defensive linemen can 271 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,519 disrupt those passing lanes, but dart under unnecessary pressure, it 272 00:15:32,759 --> 00:15:37,240 stalls and makes that offense a clunk clunk. Yeah, I 273 00:15:37,279 --> 00:15:39,559 think I think is probably probably the best word. It 274 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,519 doesn't work really well. And I think that was the 275 00:15:42,679 --> 00:15:47,600 challenge that Old Miss had. You know, I think I'm 276 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,960 gonna say Lane Tik took a page out of next book. 277 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,000 You know, he was talking about it earlier in the 278 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,799 week before the game. He was talking about, you know, 279 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,200 we really haven't played anybody. Yes, yes, we've been putting 280 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,360 up a lot of points. Jackson is getting a lot 281 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,720 of love. You know, he was number one in our 282 00:16:00,759 --> 00:16:03,960 Heisman voting last week. You know, he's putting up, you know, 283 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,759 ridiculous numbers in the SEC. But they haven't really played anybody. 284 00:16:07,759 --> 00:16:11,039 They haven't played anybody with the defensive front. And I'm 285 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,039 almost positive I heard this with the transfer portal. This year, 286 00:16:15,639 --> 00:16:18,000 Ole Miss has almost a brand new offensive starting line. 287 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,679 Their starting line from last year is now their backups. 288 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,559 And I think this is the challenge that Lane is 289 00:16:24,679 --> 00:16:29,120 having an Oxford. He does really well against the same 290 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,480 or lesser opponents. When he goes up against a superior 291 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,000 defensive line. That's when his offense run runs into problems. 292 00:16:37,159 --> 00:16:39,000 That's when that's when they come in. And so I think, 293 00:16:39,039 --> 00:16:42,320 I think that's the challenge, and that, my friend, is 294 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,960 what makes me curious to hear your perspective on the 295 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,360 game Cocks. You know, the game Cocks. They look like 296 00:16:49,399 --> 00:16:52,039 world beaters compared to Georgia and Old Miss, two of 297 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,960 the top ten teams in the country. Kentucky has played 298 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,559 both of them. Well, Kentucky lost to Georgia by one, 299 00:16:57,799 --> 00:17:00,279 they beat Old Miss, yet they get house by the 300 00:17:00,279 --> 00:17:03,840 game Cocks. So what can I'm going to turn the 301 00:17:03,879 --> 00:17:06,680 tables back on you and ask, you know what can 302 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,960 the Lane Train and Revel Nation be worried about when 303 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,880 they come to Columbia next week at three point thirty. 304 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, beautiful transition, by the way. To get us to 305 00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:18,160 next week, Saturday, October fifth, will take a look at 306 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,680 the slate. Let's start there with Ole Miss arriving in Colombia. 307 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,440 The game Cocks have what you just described, which is, 308 00:17:25,799 --> 00:17:29,480 I'm going to say, an elite defensive front between Kyle Knard, 309 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,519 who leads the nation in sacks, and the freshman Veen. 310 00:17:31,559 --> 00:17:34,279 I'm Dylan Stewart, who perhaps is one of the most 311 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:39,839 unique athletic talents that I've seen at this position. They 312 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,039 get into the backfield and they reac havoc. And I 313 00:17:43,079 --> 00:17:49,480 think that if you have a mediocre to bad offensive line, 314 00:17:49,559 --> 00:17:52,319 it's going to be a rough day going against South Carolina. 315 00:17:52,759 --> 00:17:56,319 I think that LSU has one of the top offensive 316 00:17:56,319 --> 00:18:03,079 lines in the country. Supposedly they did well as the 317 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,759 game went on. First half of the game, they weren't 318 00:18:05,759 --> 00:18:08,039 really able to establish the run at all, gave up 319 00:18:08,079 --> 00:18:10,079 a couple of sacks after not giving up any sacks 320 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:14,160 all year. So I think that those those two ends, 321 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,400 and then there's quality players in the middle. But the 322 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,839 thing that happened to the transfer portal over the course 323 00:18:18,839 --> 00:18:21,160 of the off season was that Shane Biemer and his 324 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,160 staff were able to build quality depth. So now they're rotating, 325 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,400 you know, eight to ten guys along that defensive line. 326 00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:33,240 You're you're really five or six deep at tackle, and 327 00:18:33,319 --> 00:18:36,880 so that position can rotate. And we've talked before about 328 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,960 once the big guys are gassed, they're gased and you 329 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,759 can't refill them. But if you have six players and 330 00:18:41,759 --> 00:18:44,000 you're in a and you're in more traditional front with 331 00:18:44,039 --> 00:18:47,279 a four to three set up, and you are a 332 00:18:47,279 --> 00:18:49,119 four to two five, which is really what Clayton White 333 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,960 likes to run in Columbia. You're going to have two 334 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,000 of those tackles in the middle, but if you have six, 335 00:18:53,079 --> 00:18:54,920 you have three rotations that could come through and you 336 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,119 don't have a whole lot of drop off. And so 337 00:18:57,319 --> 00:19:01,880 the second the second string ends are are okay, and 338 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,440 they can they can pull their weight. But those starters 339 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,480 in Canari and Stuart are are our problem. And I'll 340 00:19:08,519 --> 00:19:10,759 put them up against any offensive line in the country 341 00:19:10,759 --> 00:19:13,720 this year. They're a problem. So they're going to draw 342 00:19:13,759 --> 00:19:16,319 double teams and there. And we saw, you know, the 343 00:19:16,319 --> 00:19:19,119 clip that went viral a couple weeks ago with Dylan 344 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:24,079 Stewart beating the triple team against uh against the opponent there, 345 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,480 and I think that that is something that's just unique 346 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,119 to the game Cocks team this year that could cause 347 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,400 on Miss some problems. We've seen Lane have trouble getting 348 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,559 his teams ready for quality road games in the past. 349 00:19:38,319 --> 00:19:40,920 This will be the first true true road test for 350 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,680 ole Miss this year. And we know that williams Brice 351 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,880 is gonna be rocking for that three thirty kickoff. Hopefully 352 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,119 for the game Cocks, you get your starting quarterback when 353 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,599 our sellers back from the ankle sprain. Rocket Sanders, a 354 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,119 former ol SEC back, also has an ankle injury. So 355 00:19:56,279 --> 00:19:57,640 coming off a bye week, you hope to get a 356 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,960 little bit healthier if you have those guys back. Looking 357 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,519 at what Kentucky did, I might lie towards cautious optimism 358 00:20:07,519 --> 00:20:09,119 and picking the game Cocks this weekend. 359 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,799 Speaker 2: That you know that that's a big spread right now. 360 00:20:12,839 --> 00:20:16,039 We've got Old Miss favored by nine points. I think 361 00:20:16,079 --> 00:20:19,200 that's a little high. But here here's the deal. One 362 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,400 of the things I was impressed with with Lane. Lane 363 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,960 just kind of owned the loss, you know, kind of said, hey, 364 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,200 that's on us, you know, we kind of are learning 365 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:26,640 from it. 366 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: And. 367 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,519 Speaker 2: It show. It still shows even though how far Lane 368 00:20:34,559 --> 00:20:39,000 has brought Old Miss, like how hard it is to 369 00:20:39,079 --> 00:20:42,960 win those games you're expected to win. We we're putting 370 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,160 Old Miss on a pedestal where they've never been before. 371 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,160 You know, they are traditionally a six and six, seven 372 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,880 and five, five and seventeen. You know, like our guy 373 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,119 I a you know, who's had enough on the ship 374 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,880 this week. They're there for the party at the grow. 375 00:21:00,759 --> 00:21:03,400 What Lane has brought is something different. There's an expectation, 376 00:21:03,559 --> 00:21:04,960 there's a playoff expectation. 377 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:05,519 Speaker 1: You know. 378 00:21:05,559 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 2: He did a great thing with Landry on TikTok this 379 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,319 week about getting ready for the game, and Landry was 380 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,839 talking about, you know, her birthday was in December and 381 00:21:12,839 --> 00:21:14,799 they were going to go, you know, New York City. 382 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,160 He's like, well, you know, we're supposed to be in 383 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:21,400 the playoff. Lane's bringing that expectation. But I think we're 384 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,960 still saying you still got to show up every week. 385 00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:27,440 You know, you still got to be there. And I 386 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,000 think this is I think this is old missus one Bulligan. 387 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,759 I think they may get one more and they may 388 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,920 baby in the playoff any more than than than than 389 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,880 two losses, though, and they're gonna be on the outside end. 390 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,039 So so real quick to just jump around. We've got 391 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,599 three games with coaches that I'm gonna call in the 392 00:21:46,599 --> 00:21:49,880 hot seat. We've got homecoming in Athens this week and 393 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,400 the Deep southholdest rivalry Brother Hugh was going to be 394 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,559 coming into UH to take on the dogs with Auburn. Uh, 395 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,279 you know Auburn and Oklahom. Well, last week played a game. 396 00:22:01,319 --> 00:22:03,240 You know, we were texting back and forth about that 397 00:22:03,799 --> 00:22:06,359 it looked like Auburn was comfortable, looked like Auburn was 398 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,519 going to take care of business. I think we were 399 00:22:08,599 --> 00:22:11,119 joking about Oklahoma, saying, you know, are we the next 400 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,920 Nebraska of the SEC? And then all of a sudden, 401 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,240 Peyton Thorne shocker throws a pick six and Bloomer Sooner 402 00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:20,960 comes out of Jordan are with a win. I think Auburn. 403 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,359 I think Auburn is in trouble, especially George's Georgia got 404 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,279 a big number this week. George is like twenty three 405 00:22:26,279 --> 00:22:28,200 and a half points. I think that's too many points, 406 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,039 but that that's a big number. I think he was 407 00:22:31,079 --> 00:22:33,799 a little bit in trouble. Two other games to kind 408 00:22:33,799 --> 00:22:35,640 of look at. We'll kind of look at these three together. 409 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,279 You know, Tennessee is going to Arkansas Saturday night. I 410 00:22:39,319 --> 00:22:42,720 love ABC, you know, taking the Saturday night game. Rocky 411 00:22:42,799 --> 00:22:46,519 tops favored by fourteen. And then one that I know 412 00:22:46,599 --> 00:22:49,000 that we've been looking at. I think last week's game 413 00:22:49,039 --> 00:22:53,480 maybe tempered some of our expectation. But Florida will be 414 00:22:53,519 --> 00:22:57,640 hosting the gus bus and UCF. The SEC don't work 415 00:22:57,680 --> 00:22:59,920 at seven forty five and right now the Gators are 416 00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:03,799 favored by one point. So you know, we've got three 417 00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:07,319 coaches there. We've got We've got Freeze at Auburn, We've 418 00:23:07,319 --> 00:23:10,559 got Sam Pittman at Arkansas, and then we've got old 419 00:23:10,559 --> 00:23:15,079 Billy Billy Billy Billy Billy Billy at Florida. Well, maybe 420 00:23:15,079 --> 00:23:17,799 he's in most trouble. What's gonna happen. 421 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: Maybe here's da that's literally that I'm gonna lose all 422 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,440 professionalism having this discussion. He's done, that one's over. That 423 00:23:26,519 --> 00:23:29,119 one is over. I think Pittman can save it. I 424 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,440 don't know that he saves it this week. Let's just 425 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,680 start with Florida. I'm gonna stick with I'm gonna stick 426 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,880 with u CF. I picked UF in the preseason. I'm 427 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,319 gonna hang with it. I know they had trouble putting 428 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,400 up points last week, and that's shocking against Colorado, who, 429 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,119 you know, just has had the most porous defense of 430 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,839 all time. In the past couple of years under Dion, 431 00:23:50,799 --> 00:23:53,920 it's kind of been shootout or bust for the Buffalo's. 432 00:23:54,759 --> 00:23:58,319 But I think the kJ Jefferson, I really like R. J. 433 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,799 Harvey and coming out of the backfield, I think that 434 00:24:00,839 --> 00:24:03,640 they're going to cause problems for Florida's defense. Florida's defense 435 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,599 has not looked good at all, and so I just 436 00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:10,640 I just got to imagine that Gus Maldon is scheming 437 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,319 something up, and I think that he has the players. 438 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,480 I think he has enough to get it done. I 439 00:24:16,519 --> 00:24:20,440 also don't really trust Florida's offensive situation at this point either. 440 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,039 I think that you're rolling with merch and that's check 441 00:24:23,079 --> 00:24:26,799 down city, and if you go with Wlagway, you're inexperience 442 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,720 and it's kind of boom or bust. He's gonna give 443 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,440 you some big explosives, but he's a freshman. He's just 444 00:24:31,519 --> 00:24:34,480 kind of figuring his way out and in a big 445 00:24:34,519 --> 00:24:37,880 time power for football. So I think Napier's in the 446 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,559 most trouble outslide to Tennessee in Arkansas. 447 00:24:40,599 --> 00:24:43,839 Speaker 2: I think, real quick, real quick on you, uc Florida. 448 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,200 Remember Gus. Gus has a player for the dramatic, like 449 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,759 when everyone counts them out. I remember a couple of 450 00:24:50,839 --> 00:24:54,720 few games that I remembers us very very well, and 451 00:24:54,839 --> 00:24:56,680 I think it would be fitting for for UCF to 452 00:24:56,759 --> 00:24:58,880 kind of come in there and not going on Florida. 453 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:01,359 Even Florida place off the lomp So I'm right there, 454 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,000 all right, go ahead, what else you got for me? 455 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,079 Speaker 1: No doubt I completely agree with that that take on Gus. 456 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,279 I think that Tennessee wins this week against Arkansas, I 457 00:25:09,319 --> 00:25:14,160 don't think that. I think Arkansas has looked better than 458 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,359 a three and two. They're competing, they're competing, Yeah, so 459 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,400 it's hard, and they. 460 00:25:18,839 --> 00:25:21,279 Speaker 2: Gave, they gave. They gave away the game at Oklahoma State. 461 00:25:21,839 --> 00:25:24,680 They could be four and one. They were in that 462 00:25:24,759 --> 00:25:26,839 game all weekend. Against A and M this week, and 463 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,559 so I'm totally cutting you off. So I apologize, but 464 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:31,640 I'm right there with you. 465 00:25:32,519 --> 00:25:37,319 Speaker 1: They competed twelve of thirteen for A and M over Arkansas, 466 00:25:37,559 --> 00:25:40,960 and almost every one of them has looked just like that. 467 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,519 That's super closed. Just can't close it out. So part 468 00:25:44,519 --> 00:25:46,640 of me thinks, from a fan based standpoint, I don't 469 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,160 have a good pulse on what's happening in Fayeteville from 470 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,839 the fans standpoint, From the booster standpoint, we know the 471 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,400 Tyson Chicken money is there. Go ask cal about that. 472 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,319 I mean, they can make it happen. But what I 473 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,559 just don't know are they upset they gave the game away? 474 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,720 And still Water. Are they happy they compete with Oklahoma State? 475 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,559 Are they upset about this loss to Texas A and 476 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,119 M to the point they want to fire him because 477 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,960 it's twelve out of thirteen they've all been close. Or 478 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,839 are they happy that they kept it close and they 479 00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:15,079 look competitive and they look like they can actually get 480 00:26:15,079 --> 00:26:17,960 something accomplished. It does not work out well for them 481 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,319 that they're now three and two and they get the 482 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,519 balls coming in hot. I do think they can keep 483 00:26:25,559 --> 00:26:31,119 it competitive, though for a time. The problem is Taylor 484 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:35,519 Green has a tendency to give the ball away, and 485 00:26:35,559 --> 00:26:39,640 if he does that, this snowballs really quickly. Also, if 486 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,039 you go three and out and you put Tennessee on 487 00:26:42,079 --> 00:26:45,000 the field a couple times really quick, this could snowball quickly. 488 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,240 So they're going to need to move the ball. But 489 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,039 at the end of the day, is Bobby Petrino and 490 00:26:50,079 --> 00:26:53,079 I have some faith in him to scheme something to 491 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:57,119 at least keep it competitive. I don't think he freezes 492 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,680 in trouble. I think it's too early. I do think. 493 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,279 I do think the twenty three and a half, though, 494 00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:07,440 is probably an accurate number. I think Georgia actulutely rolls. 495 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 2: I hope, so like I don't know, maybe you see 496 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,279 some Let me say one one last thing, I Pittman. 497 00:27:12,319 --> 00:27:14,400 Then we'll talk about Hewan, then we'll talk about the 498 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:14,839 Deep South. 499 00:27:14,839 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: All was right avoy. 500 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,079 Speaker 2: So looking at the rest of the schedule, we've got Tennessee, LSU, 501 00:27:19,279 --> 00:27:23,440 Mississippi State, Old Miss Texas, Louisiana Tech MISSOI for Arkansas, 502 00:27:23,799 --> 00:27:26,079 I've got two wins on there. I've got Mississippi State 503 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,519 and Louisiana Tech. If they're looking for one, they always 504 00:27:30,599 --> 00:27:34,319 play Old miss hard and it's always weird. So that 505 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,119 could be what gets Sam Pittman to six and six. 506 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,359 So you know, I think that Oklahoma State game may 507 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,640 be what you know, cost them a five hundred record 508 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,440 this year, but it's definitely gonna be close. 509 00:27:47,799 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: I agreed. That's I think. I think they could get 510 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:54,519 Missouri to close the year. That's my my giveaway for this. 511 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,279 We haven't talked about it, but in a minute, we 512 00:27:58,319 --> 00:28:03,640 can touch Missouri. Let's let's talk off Georgia quickly, because 513 00:28:03,799 --> 00:28:06,720 I think that Georgia rolls. But I think that Hugh 514 00:28:06,799 --> 00:28:08,279 is going to figure it out. They have to give 515 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,480 him the year. We said this last week. I think 516 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,279 he's just punned. I think he's just punted on this year. 517 00:28:13,319 --> 00:28:15,559 And that's why I didn't go get a quarterback. And 518 00:28:15,599 --> 00:28:18,839 Peyton Thorn is what he is, and he switches back. 519 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,640 And I saw the news this week that they were 520 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,079 switching back to Peyton Thorn, and I thought, Okay, this 521 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,799 solidifies my take that they're going to beat Oklahoma because 522 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,599 I have enough belief in Peyton Thorn that he can 523 00:28:28,599 --> 00:28:30,759 go out and get it done against the team that 524 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,759 is turning to this freshman. 525 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 2: His own coaching, he throws it to the wrong team 526 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:36,880 too often. Come on, man, come on. 527 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, well a lot of coaches think that. They just 528 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,880 all say it in a press conference. You got to 529 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:44,519 pick your spot. 530 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,839 Speaker 2: Just listen. Listen. I want to see it. Listen. It's 531 00:28:49,839 --> 00:28:54,079 homecoming this weekend. It's a great rivalry Georgia has on 532 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,640 this rivalry of late, but like I want to see 533 00:29:00,759 --> 00:29:04,279 it doesn't. But here's the thing. I want to see 534 00:29:04,319 --> 00:29:05,119 Georgia put. 535 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: It on somebody. 536 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 2: You know, they did it against Clemston, but like they're 537 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,319 just missing it, man, And that's my thing is like 538 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,039 show up. You know who's going to be that guy? 539 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:19,880 I think Dylan Bell could be that guy. I think 540 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,599 he's a pretty I think love it, love It's good. 541 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,680 I think Arian Smith can be good. But here's the deal, 542 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,839 Like in Bobo called the nice game, in the second half, 543 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,359 throw the ball down the throw the ball down the 544 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,279 damn field. I'm sorry, but like these checkdowns and these 545 00:29:37,319 --> 00:29:41,000 swing passes, throw the ball down the field to these guys, 546 00:29:41,559 --> 00:29:44,759 take your shots, and then that's going to allow Trams 547 00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:48,799 to run the ball. This checkdown stuff, the super conservative 548 00:29:48,799 --> 00:29:52,079 stuff where you go underneath the shell, it just ain't working. 549 00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:55,200 And listen, the problem is, you know ratt Ledge is 550 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,960 out for a while. The center went out, so you 551 00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,720 know they're gonna have some issues there. 552 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: He's feeling it out in the first half. He's great 553 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,559 to have time adjustments, and that's just he's gonna come out. 554 00:30:07,599 --> 00:30:09,599 He's gonna do body blows. He's gonna check and he's 555 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:11,880 gonna figure out what you're doing and try to, you know, 556 00:30:12,039 --> 00:30:13,920 break down your scheme and try to see how you're 557 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,759 gonna respond. And the second half he's gonna hit you 558 00:30:15,759 --> 00:30:18,039 in the mouth. That's just how I get it. 559 00:30:18,599 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 2: But I want time one time. I get it, I know, 560 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,079 But like listen, and again we're spoiled here. Yeah, what 561 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,480 would what? Monkin was creative? He found some ways to 562 00:30:31,519 --> 00:30:35,799 do some things and just push it. Yeah, and that's 563 00:30:35,799 --> 00:30:36,400 what I'm looking for. 564 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: You. 565 00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 2: It's just just not enough. And you know, I just 566 00:30:39,079 --> 00:30:41,200 I want a little bit more. So you're gonna you're 567 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,519 gonna get I want to see it. 568 00:30:42,839 --> 00:30:45,079 Speaker 1: You're gonna get what you're looking for because Georgia's defense 569 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:46,759 has what it takes to make Peyton Thorn gets the 570 00:30:46,759 --> 00:30:52,680 ball up. Okay, Missouri, Missouri, Texas, A and M quickly. 571 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,960 I'm really torn on this one because I picked Missouri. 572 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,680 I think Missouri probably still wins. I'm just not really 573 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,839 sold him to being that great. I think that there's. 574 00:31:02,079 --> 00:31:05,119 Speaker 2: Number so so so this is what Vegas thinks. Missouri's 575 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,759 number nine in the country. Texas and somehow is number 576 00:31:07,759 --> 00:31:10,200 twenty five because they can't count. I don't know. I 577 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,599 can't figure it out. But yet A and M is 578 00:31:13,079 --> 00:31:16,880 favored by one point. Nobody believes that. Nobody believes in Missouri. 579 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 1: I just don't. I can't see the defense is okay, 580 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:21,920 it's not what it was last year. I lost Bla 581 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,039 Baker Lu and none of that's an old narrative. Everybody 582 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,519 said that over and over again. Brady Cook has not 583 00:31:27,559 --> 00:31:30,000 been stellar. I think there're one Luther Burden away from 584 00:31:30,359 --> 00:31:31,599 six and six seven o'cocks. 585 00:31:32,759 --> 00:31:36,039 Speaker 2: Yep, I agree. I just I just nothing has been 586 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,279 impressive this year for Missouri. And I know Brett's gonna 587 00:31:39,279 --> 00:31:41,079 be mad at us when when when he hears this. 588 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,599 But like they're just we've talked about it way back 589 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,519 in sec media days. You're not hearing anything. They're not 590 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,559 really scaring anybody. They're playing these close games, they're not 591 00:31:53,599 --> 00:31:56,079 really putting it on people. So yeah, I'm I'm right 592 00:31:56,119 --> 00:31:58,319 there with you, I think and M may may may 593 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,720 may get may get them so to see it happens. 594 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:01,759 But I'm right there. 595 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: And the difference is A and M has a different 596 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,920 approach now because you have a completely different quarterback to 597 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:11,000 prepare for. Because with Wayman going out, I think that 598 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,119 might have actually found something because now a little more 599 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,680 dual threat. And what they're doing Brady Cook is is 600 00:32:16,839 --> 00:32:21,880 efficient and efficient works when the rest of the team 601 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:26,519 is really really good. He's not an All star, and 602 00:32:26,559 --> 00:32:29,880 I think that hurts Missouri. Okay, so that's what we're 603 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:34,440 looking at next week October fifth. I'm gonna stand on 604 00:32:34,599 --> 00:32:37,640 Texas as the best team in the SEC, but man 605 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,720 Jalen Milroe and the Crimson Tide are coming for him. 606 00:32:41,759 --> 00:32:45,079 We'll see what happens as we continue throughout the season. 607 00:32:45,359 --> 00:32:47,640 But before we go, let's take a minute for our 608 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,279 last word. Did you have thoughts here? Is this a 609 00:32:50,359 --> 00:32:53,200 free fraud for me to take it? You know? 610 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 2: If you've got I got something. If you don't have anything, 611 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,519 but I got a pretty good one. So we sort 612 00:32:58,519 --> 00:32:59,519 of touched on it earlier. 613 00:33:00,279 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: As you know, Craig and I are part of the 614 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,559 Last Word on Sports Network, Last Word on College Football, 615 00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:09,279 and we are here to talk ball with you each 616 00:33:09,319 --> 00:33:10,960 and every week.
