I can't 193 00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:46.519 wipe that baby. 194 00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:50.639 But if you squint, you know, it's it's like that's 195 00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:52.160 a long time ago. That was a long time. 196 00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:55.720 Yes, we're having a face reality here. 197 00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:58.600 Yes, so we'll see. I mean, they're they're I think 198 00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:02.279 we were at the casino yes with Jay and mister 199 00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.720 jeez uh, mister so, Edgar so and and they're optimistic 200 00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:09.720 and Edgar didn't kind of get involved in the conversation. 201 00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:10.399 But Jay is. 202 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:14.000 He's still holding not hope, you know, I heard him yesterday. 203 00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:16.360 He can hold if you have hope, you can still 204 00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:18.800 hold out. But like I said, you know, if this 205 00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:20.519 was a horse and and this is kind of just 206 00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:23.319 my analogy, and you're getting beat by ten links seven 207 00:08:23.399 --> 00:08:26.000 links a race, and this been the case because it's 208 00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:26.639 not been close. 209 00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:29.240 What gives you reason that this horse is going to 210 00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:29.879 win this race? 211 00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:33.639 Those long shot horses, man, those ones that are fifty 212 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:35.919 to one odds, you know, that's that's the Jay's betting, 213 00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:37.919 betting on a long long shot. 214 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.679 And he did better. He picked He picked a reson 215 00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:43.639 to win, which is fine with me. I'm gonna probably 216 00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:46.360 be totally wrong. Brian was there too, He listened. Brian's 217 00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:50.000 with me too. I mean, are you lying eyes lying 218 00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:50.279 to you? 219 00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:51.440 No way? 220 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:52.679 No? 221 00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:55.440 I mean, look, I I love you of a sports 222 00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:56.600 and I love to be in a town where we 223 00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:57.720 celebrate to you of a sports. 224 00:08:57.759 --> 00:08:59.519 But no, not right now. 225 00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:01.759 I just I think there's an eye on I don't 226 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:03.320 even know if there's an eye on the ASU game. 227 00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:05.240 I know we're all thinking, well, let's get get to 228 00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:07.039 a SU and win. I don't know if the players 229 00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:07.879 are even thinking that. 230 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:11.360 No. I think it's like where's the exit. 231 00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:14.240 Right, you know? So like let's just you know, were you. 232 00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:16.519 At the press conference? No? I didn't go to any 233 00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:17.639 other press conferences this week? 234 00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:17.919 Yeah? 235 00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:21.559 Same? Well stuff? Really well, you know, Brendan's not going 236 00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:22.240 to inspire you. 237 00:09:23.039 --> 00:09:27.159 This is not and he's facing an uppill challenge he's 238 00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:29.279 just he's going trying to just go game by game, 239 00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:30.120 day by day. 240 00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:32.919 Right, which which of course he should, right, But it's 241 00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:35.559 not with any inspiration. I mean, not that, not that 242 00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:38.799 that is a qualifier or whatever. You just gotta go 243 00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:41.200 out and win. Do they have the players to do it? 244 00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:41.600 Who knows. 245 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.440 But you know the thing about it is And I'm 246 00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:45.519 and by the way, anybody who wants to stick around 247 00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:47.519 from five to six, I'm gonna have the A team 248 00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:50.159 show with the Byron Evans and David Adams. Uh And 249 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.080 there's two different opinions from the guys. But if you 250 00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.559 don't have the horses to win, and and and we 251 00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:00.679 talk more about Arizona, right, but there's another team and 252 00:10:00.759 --> 00:10:02.159 you have to kind of worry about the other team. 253 00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:05.720 And this team is halfway decent. 254 00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:08.799 Coming in well and and you know we talk about this, 255 00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:12.240 you know, our our losing streak. And if they're if 256 00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.879 they've won three out of four, they're probably feeling pretty good. Sure, 257 00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:17.399 And they're looking at at Arizona looking their chops. I like, hey, 258 00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:19.919 you know, there's there's there's a couple of holes, you 259 00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:24.000 know they I was just looking at their their their 260 00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:27.200 lead rusher here Rashwan. You know, he's averaging close to 261 00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:28.960 five yards of Cary's probably thinking, hey man, I could 262 00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.919 probably hit for a pretty good game if if it 263 00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:31.600 goes right. 264 00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:33.279 Right, Well, they're flipping there. 265 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.240 They're looking at it like an opportunity where we're looking 266 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:36.200 like we just got to get through. 267 00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:37.240 Well. 268 00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:44.159 In the last three weeks, who were they, uh, West Virginia, Colorado, 269 00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:47.200 West Virginia and the Central Okay, so you have Colorado 270 00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:49.360 at home and at the time, I think you're saying. 271 00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:50.519 Okay, we've got a chance. 272 00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:52.039 We've been the last year, we got a chance, right, 273 00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.879 and well that chance went away and the kickoff pretty much. 274 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:57.799 And then you play West Virginia at home, another team 275 00:10:57.799 --> 00:10:59.559 that's not doing as well, and you think, okay, this 276 00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:00.120 will be our win. 277 00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:01.679 You don't show up. 278 00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:05.480 You go to Florida in the game that okay, we 279 00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:07.600 have to play well to win, and that was not 280 00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:08.320 even close. 281 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.679 So some might call it an astronomical disaster. 282 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:13.080 Yeah, yeah, you could stop. 283 00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:15.519 It was that right after the hurricane. Can we blame 284 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.080 the hurricane? Can we find and can we find something for. 285 00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:19.720 The hurricane Hurricane Helene? 286 00:11:19.799 --> 00:11:22.360 What most fans are just trying to get out is 287 00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:25.320 that it was the space game for UCF. Then the 288 00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:29.720 uniforms inspired by NASA and all that stuff. So they 289 00:11:29.879 --> 00:11:32.320 they blow out teams when they wear those uniforms. 290 00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:35.559 Can we get some of those? I think we got 291 00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:36.360 a big space president. 292 00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:37.720 We talked about that. 293 00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:40.240 If you listen to us tim all the time, maybe 294 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.480 this is before you got here.
