Yea and run 24 00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:04.359 ahead of use the games right. Uh, you know what, 25 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:08.280 I wasn't sure you're gonna show up today, Dodgers. The 26 00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:11.439 Dodgers were a little shaky, you know what it was shake. 27 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.680 I was very nervous going into the game last night. 28 00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:15.959 You should have been. But they did a nice job. 29 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:17.120 Five oh right. 30 00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:19.519 Well yeah, you know, you know, Mookie went yard in 31 00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:22.239 the first inning, you know, second batter, and you get 32 00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:24.439 to one nothing leading you go, okay, I know that's 33 00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:26.680 not a lot, but it's better than being down one zip. 34 00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:28.959 And then they just took care of business. And the 35 00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:32.079 you know, the bullpen was incredible. I've been highly critical 36 00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:35.480 of them all season long, and they you know, they 37 00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:37.040 it was a bullpen game and they shut them. 38 00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.760 Out right right right. So now game five tomorrow or 39 00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:42.120 tomorrow five o'clocks one today? Who's playing to day? 40 00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:44.799 You got the Tigers and the uh and the Indians 41 00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:48.280 coming up. Indians, the Guardians coming up, uh just about 42 00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.120 about ready to get started. And then you'll you're gonna 43 00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:55.799 have the the Yankees and the and the Royals. 44 00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:58.560 Uh so in a couple of hours. Okay, So that's 45 00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:01.159 that's game five to no. Both of those are games four. 46 00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:01.920 H Okay. 47 00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.760 Yankees lead Yankees lead to one and the Tiger's lead 48 00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:06.159 to one. Yankees run the bridge. 49 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:08.159 It's just so many people dissecting and what's going on 50 00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:10.560 with the playoffs already with you know, a couple of 51 00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:14.479 number ones, ye kind of just not number ones, but 52 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.439 the better team say, not winning. U good to see 53 00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:19.439 you hadn't been It's been a while. It's been a while. 54 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:20.919 It's been a while. It's been a little cranky this 55 00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:22.120 week's team. You've been working. 56 00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:24.120 You have to not only just working, but I'm really 57 00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:25.759 I'm really pissed at there is on a football team. 58 00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:27.280 Okay, listen, I want to go there. I was gonna 59 00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:29.039 go there with you because uh and I said this 60 00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:32.639 with the guys on Monday. Uh you you you called in. 61 00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:34.199 I think it was a Monday. I called you the 62 00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:36.439 monday after they beat Utah. I called that this week 63 00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:40.800 are premature evaluation because you called in. You says, Hey, 64 00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:42.240 the one thing I don't want to hear are the 65 00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:44.759 people ragging on the coaches blah blah blah. Okay, A 66 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:48.280 week later, is it okay? No, it's not okay, Well 67 00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:50.039 it isn't. It isn't okay. 68 00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:52.960 I think it's it's the realization that that there's still 69 00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:55.400 a transition going on, and and you know, and when 70 00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:58.240 you think about, yes, they beat Utah, but they only 71 00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:01.199 score twenty three points, right, So so really, while they 72 00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:04.599 beat Utah look good doing it, and the offense looked 73 00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:06.680 pretty good, they were effective enough to win the game, 74 00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:09.000 the offense still is having issues and I don't know 75 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:12.319 if it's having issues with transition, having issues with how 76 00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.120 they call plays, what they're calling, what they're running. Brent 77 00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:17.360 Brannan mentioned in the press conference, guys are going in 78 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.840 the wrong direction. It's just amazing, right, So there's still 79 00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:26.520 obviously a transition going on, you know, they that's the 80 00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:28.360 tough part of what we saw. But the good part 81 00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:30.400 of what we're seeing is that this defense is good. 82 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:33.280 The defense is really good. The defense kept them in 83 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:36.960 the game. Texas Tech has been averaging forty points a game, 84 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.400 right And if you know, walking into the stadium, if 85 00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:41.919 you'd have said, and this is the old cliche, if 86 00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:45.240 you'd have said, you're giving Texas Tech twenty eight points, 87 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:46.840 you're going to take that. And I would have taken 88 00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.960 that all day long, thinking that Arizona offense would be 89 00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:51.159 able to do outscore that. 90 00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.000 Yeah, well, they're going to have to be good the 91 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.039 rest of the season, right because you just don't know 92 00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.439 about the rfence. It is very weird that the offense 93 00:03:57.520 --> 00:03:59.960 is doing what it's doing because you think that they're 94 00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:03.000 capable of scoring more. We all know about the number 95 00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:04.960 one target team. Act is going to be the number 96 00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:08.000 one target with whether people like it or not. Burnett 97 00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:10.560 needs to be target number two. Right And and it 98 00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:12.960 just kind of shows you last year's offense on the 99 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.759 receiver end, they had teammates, they had Cowing, they had 100 00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:19.319 they had the book, right, yeah, they had. They had 101 00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:21.759 a few guys. This year they don't seem to have 102 00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:23.839 a few guys, although it seems like they have a 103 00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:27.240 few guys. Well there there's more they do, but there's more. 104 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:30.160 The guys that we were doing all the things that 105 00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:32.160 they did last year, a bunch of them are gone. 106 00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:32.639 Right. 107 00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:36.319 The whole running back room has changed. Even Speedy Luke 108 00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:39.519 is not is not you know in there anymore. There 109 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:43.279 isn't There isn't a Jacob Cowing. You know. Uh, you 110 00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:46.600 thought Lamonious Craig was was gonna could be that guy. 111 00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:50.800 But again, if there's a transition, uh and and things 112 00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:54.199 are different enough that they're still getting used to each 113 00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:57.920 other offensively, those things aren't showing themselves yet. You know, 114 00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:01.319 I'd like to think within the next the next couple 115 00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.040 of weeks to three weeks, whatever it takes, you know 116 00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:05.959 that this offense will begin to click a little. In 117 00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:08.560 the meantime, you just they got to do enough to 118 00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:10.800 win these games. These are two hard games coming up. 119 00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:14.360 They're at buyu on on Saturday. Then they got Colorado 120 00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:16.319 coming in on the following week. 121 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:18.680 Right, right, So if they don't win the two, this 122 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.600 season is going to be on the brink that that said, 123 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:24.759 they could win both because we talked about being doing 124 00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:27.120 the area. You know, we have Peterson on I think 125 00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:30.959 on Tuesday or Monday. How how this is an Arizona thing. 126 00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:34.040 Don't expect them to win they win. Expect them to win, 127 00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:35.639 they don't win, right, I mean, you've seen it all 128 00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:38.639 your life and it continues that trend, and the year 129 00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:42.199 after having prosperity, the year after they don't. I mean 130 00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:45.480 that's sometimes unexplainable, but here you just have to show them. 131 00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:51.360 I'm trying to keep my mind from wandering over to 132 00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.920 that thing of is this happening again? After a ten 133 00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:58.879 win season. It's happening four straight, right, It's happened every 134 00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:01.560 time so far. And they're three and two right now. 135 00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:04.879 Arguably we thought they would be three and two at 136 00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:07.040 this point anyways, but not this three and two. 137 00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:09.759 No, that's why it makes it look bad because you're 138 00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.680 suspected they shouldn't be they shouldn't be three and two. 139 00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:16.759 But we okay, we give you they'll be three and two. 140 00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:20.519 But the thing is that it gives you pause to say, 141 00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:22.680 is this gonna happen again? And I've said this, I 142 00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:24.839 don't think I've said this with you since you've been gone. 143 00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:27.480 But do you trust this team? Right? Well? 144 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.199 You think you think you can't help, but think that 145 00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:34.120 Texas Tech was a missed opportunity to really get ahead, 146 00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:36.600 as they say, get ahead of the chains, right, be 147 00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:39.319 four and one, uh with a with a win over 148 00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:42.560 a road win over a top ten team, to be 149 00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.120 four and one, two and zero in the conference, and 150 00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:48.759 you know, the what if of that is incredible? And 151 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.120 now it's kind of like buy us a must game? 152 00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:56.199 Yeah right by b y U is one that I 153 00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:58.439 think it was that one game that we thought we 154 00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:00.680 thought Central Florida was more a more. 155 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:04.079 Likely loss than BYU. But you thought BYU could be tough. 156 00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:07.560 So if they don't beat by if they beat BYU, you. 157 00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:09.279 Know now they might lose the central for it. So 158 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:12.480 let me ask you this. They beat Utah? Was it more? 159 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.240 And this show could be coming from Salt Lake City? 160 00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:16.800 If we were in Salt Lake City, what do you 161 00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:19.399 think people in Salt Lake are saying? We blew this? 162 00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:22.639 This was not about Arizona. We weren't good enough that day. Okay, 163 00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:25.560 So if that that's a different scenario, right. But was 164 00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:29.720 it Utah or was it Arizona against Utah where Arizona 165 00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.480 played better and Utah just didn't show up? Or should 166 00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:35.160 Utah had? They should have won? They should have won. 167 00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:36.560 Let me tell you what who should have win? You 168 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:38.879 taught you they had two opportunities in the red zone 169 00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:40.560 early and didn't score. 170 00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:41.160 Uh. 171 00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:43.560 The coach just said, we're gonna I was almost to 172 00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:45.920 say that word, Uh, We're gonna do this all night. 173 00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.160 This is continued to go and he kind of blew 174 00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:50.000 it with that, and Arizona got you know what I'm 175 00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:52.319 saying in the end. Do I think Arizona's a better 176 00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.759 team than Utah? Go there? I do not okay, play 177 00:07:56.000 --> 00:07:57.639 some times, but close. 178 00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:01.839 Enough that Utah had to play well to win the game. 179 00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:04.439 To win the game, right, they couldn't play bad and 180 00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:05.279 expect to win. 181 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:05.920 Uh. 182 00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:09.560 They played ten times, they say, Arizona win win four 183 00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:11.040 for six and four, I'll give you that.

This team can't dribble, can't pass, 211 00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:29.960 can't shoot, and it was bad. It was like, holy crap. 212 00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:34.000 And then Rennan says, this team doesn't know where they're going. Yeah, 213 00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:35.919 how did that sit with you? I was just you 214 00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:36.360 were there. 215 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.480 You were disconcerting to hear all that, because he's one 216 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:44.519 being honest. Yeah, and what are you doing being honest? 217 00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:47.480 Yeah? You know, it was very I'm like, what the 218 00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:49.120 hell is going on over there? What did you? 219 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:51.960 What did you do in the two weeks leading up 220 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:54.879 to the you know, the time you had off because 221 00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.039 you look great, you know against you and maybe you 222 00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:00.320 didn't look so great against Utah, but because you won 223 00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:01.679 the game, we thought you looked great. 224 00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:05.600 Hey, that's the title of the story right there. Maybe 225 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:07.080 it was Utah, but the thing is they got to 226 00:10:07.120 --> 00:10:09.000 win and they're moving on. And I don't know how much 227 00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:13.559 the new offensive coordinator Plait apart. Yeah, it different. Everybody 228 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:16.240 was applauding the hell out of it on the Utah game, 229 00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:18.960 and then the week later was what the hell just happened? 230 00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:20.799 Well, the thing is, it gave you the sense that 231 00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:23.960 all things were fixed after the Utah game. And I 232 00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:26.240 think I when I called, you know, the Monday after 233 00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:29.480 the game, I think I said something along those lines that, Okay, 234 00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:34.480 you know, they took the two weeks, they they handled 235 00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:35.519 their issues. 236 00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:37.200 Let's move on. 237 00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:40.799 You know, we're looking at possibly a special season coming up. 238 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:43.039 And then they went right back to where they were 239 00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.120 not as bad as Kansas State because the Kansas State 240 00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:49.480 the defense played poorly as well. But again, look at 241 00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:52.080 that game Kansas Kansas State scored thirty one points. Again, 242 00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.879 if somebody, if you keep a team, you liked to 243 00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:58.759 think that Arizona can keep a team. They're around thirty points, 244 00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:01.120 that they have a really good to winning. Sure, and 245 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.639 and again let's let's let's let's be real about this. 246 00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:07.080 You know, the uh, the Texas Techai that last touchdown, right, 247 00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:09.840 you know, was it was a you know, it was 248 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:12.039 a backbreaker, but you know they got that got him 249 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:13.879 to twenty eight points. But that was a you know, 250 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:19.440 that was a twenty one twenty one, uh eighteen game 251 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:19.960 at that point. 252 00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:21.840 So so the one thing that I said, and I 253 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:23.200 said a week and I kind of don't want to 254 00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:25.879 do it again, but I will, uh the stars, the 255 00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:30.120 stars disappointed teammate doesn't fumble any fumble, Yeah, okay, And 256 00:11:30.159 --> 00:11:34.120 then you have you have the kicking the kick he missed, 257 00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:34.799 he missed a field. 258 00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:37.039 He gets Player of the week after kicking a field 259 00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:38.960 if he makes that field, Galvez, who wins the game. 260 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:40.799 It's a different tone of the game, right, And then 261 00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:44.639 your quarterback continues to struggle, and I think that you guys, 262 00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:47.919 you fans and things I witnessed, this is this is 263 00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:53.039 this disheartening because last year, the ball bounced fantastic every 264 00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:56.120 where every week, everywhere, every week, right in the final 265 00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:58.519 moments of final seven weeks. What it really did, it 266 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:00.000 really did and then you kind of have to appreciate 267 00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:02.000 maybe that's what it was. It was just a magical 268 00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:05.240 year and they played well. Now this year they're trying 269 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.320 to find. No, he's not playing well, I don't know 270 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:09.759 what anybody well, he. 271 00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:12.840 He's he's you feel like he's pressing a little bit. 272 00:12:12.840 --> 00:12:16.679 He's trying to make throws that he didn't have to 273 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:19.759 make last year. Right, he keeps throwing that. He keeps 274 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:21.440 throwing that ball into the corner of the end zone 275 00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:23.039 that's been picked off what I think three times. 276 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:24.840 Now he's going deeper, long more. 277 00:12:25.080 --> 00:12:28.600 Yeah, right, you're not you're you know, you're you're seeing 278 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:30.879 the mid the mid range throws to team act but 279 00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:34.360 not to anybody else. Uh, you know, Uh, it's it's 280 00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:36.480 it's it's been, it's been difficult to watch. 281 00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:40.000 And let's talk about about our guest today. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 282 00:12:40.039 --> 00:12:42.440 we wanted to have a fantastic guest. We got one, 283 00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:44.120 uh Dr Robins. 284 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:48.120 Yeah, doctor Robbie Robbins, the UH now former University of 285 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:49.039 Arizona president. 286 00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:50.360 Huge sports fan. 287 00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:51.720 You know, he was a guy that you saw at 288 00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:55.120 all the UH at all the sporting events front row 289 00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:55.840 kind of guy. 290 00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:56.600 Uh. 291 00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:58.759 For those of you who don't know his background, he 292 00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:01.919 was a junior college quarter back growing up in Mississippi, 293 00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.120 had dreams of being the next Archie manning at Mississippi, 294 00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:09.559 UH got injured, didn't play beyond beyond junior college. Big 295 00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:12.320 fan though, and UH and and he showed that he 296 00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:15.440 was involved in deeply involved in all the hirings and 297 00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:18.720 UH and things going on as as best as we 298 00:13:18.759 --> 00:13:20.960 can tell, actually made the decisions for a couple of 299 00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:25.159 the coaching hires. You like, you kind of think he 300 00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:28.600 let he's he has left the program in a better 301 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:29.399 place than it was. 302 00:13:29.480 --> 00:13:31.000 Oh, with a question when he got here. 303 00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.000 Now we understand though that he was obviously partially responsible 304 00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:35.840 for for. 305 00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:38.519 What happened with UH with Kevin Someling. 306 00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:42.639 But big Fan, UH, we promised we were going to 307 00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:44.480 stick to sports today.
